Within this
dream state we live in our bubble worlds created and designed by our
thoughts of grandeur and magnificence, we say these words to our
children because that is our hope, we hope all will turn out ok and that
all will be well in the end of this life, but that is just a hope.
Something that neither can be tested to be true nor relied upon as fact.
There is no certainty to our livelihoods here in this world as each day
most beings scramble thru to make it, going against the grain in what
feels like waves crashing over them such as the money system,
the debt system, the consumerism system, the job system, to get enough
money coming in to pay the bills and necessities. Working and
working to keep this point of surviving going that is if they are able
to keep there job or even get a job in this failing economy.
Garbrielle
I wanted to share Garbrielle's words from the article "Why do we Lie to our Children?" as she amazingly uncovered the magic message behind the famous expression "Everything is going to be alright...".
Empty words based on an invisible hope that should not be necessary in first place, if we were all to live the words we speak.
How did we humans become so powerless that we seem unable to put into practice the security we want to see in the world?
Expecting a father, a mother, a teacher, a president, a priest, a grandma or a friend to give the comfort of a future projection that won't be more than words. And because such comfort is not real, people desire it. Yet, the words of change are not applied so hope will vanish and things won't be alright for everyone. There is no real investigation for a solution and the promise will fade away.
It's all down to self-honesty.
We can also find such expression in movie scenes when someone is simply avoiding to tell how complicated a situation is. Everyone wants to behave like a hero towards somebody else, and everyone wants to believe in a hero that will fix the world. Why? Ask yourself! When was the last time you trusted yourself?
How will our children have a different future if we are clearly repeating historical patterns of survival? For how long are going to allow such illusionary game being projected, instead of finally stopping and standing up for structural changes in self-responsibility.
