We Have the Power
The torrent of content many believe they must consume (to be informed) has a sinister agenda. To keep you busy, entertained, and distracted.
Global average screen time is currently hovering around 7 hours per day. For younger age groups, it’s closer to 9. That is essentially half of one’s waking hours outside of school and work duties.
On the whole, that is not time put towards moving dreams or important work forward. That is time spent consuming disposable content that has the net effect of pacifying a human being and, more than that, turning her or him into a pliable, easily manipulated agent of foreign agendas.
We might as well call a spade a spade during this time.
We have the power.
We give it away on a daily basis by buying into a system and code of conduct that is not authentically ours.
If we were to opt out on any given level, the whole thing would fall down. In other words, we are both problem and solution. The problem is not outside of us. That is just a mirror. And fighting against that just creates more of the same.
It’s time to unplug. If what you are “consuming” is not feeding your purpose or highest vision for yourself, this author advises you to ignore it. You’re not going to miss anything important.
Far more important is what’s happening inside of your own Self. Get in touch with that. Spend time in silence. Talk less. Listen more. Create something. Gift. Practice kindness. Play.
Anything but numb yourself to the point of handing your authority away.
You are very powerful. You contain the Life Force Power of the Universe. Inside, you bear a golden temple and are a crystalline receptacle of light.
IF you knew who you truly were, you would start acting the part. And that is part of this game.
The more the outside pull to distract means the more consciousness is trying to awake.
You have to push a little during this time and take a stand. The change we want will not come easy and, in a sense, it will.
It means letting go of a toxic, unsustainable, and inhuman way we got familiar with in favor of something we all want but can’t quite properly explain yet.
What’s your purpose and are your actions in line with it? 🐼
