I want a gun...

Have you happen to see episodes from "LOST - Season 2"? Interesting as it may be, what strikes me is the use of the phrase "I want a gun." Could that depict something from the American Society as it is now? I wouldn't dismiss the idea without any thought...

It's very interesting but also very disturbing the power that a man (or a woman) can draw from a gun. Why is that? I don't like you, I kill you? Is this really a solution to a problem? Macabre...

Check this out... Masks are off!

As I mentioned in a previous post, the work of Alice Miller is trully a very important one... I found in the internet some essays by Arthur Silber on the work of Alice Miller. I think these are really meaningful and can explain part of what is wrong with our society, why this vicious cycle of violence is getting worse and worse...

Violence is a meant to cause obedience... I wonder, are we still our ancestors in our hearts or can we take the risk and change, make a new start? In a path with a heart and not a heartless one like the one that has been going on for many thousands of years...

I think this vicious cycle of hate and hypocrisy (hate disguised as love, judgement disguised as approval, usefulness disguised as friendship, vanity disguised as beauty and so on) has played its role and has served its purpose. Masks are off!

Passing the threshold of becoming of age and the power of words

The leaders of the world and the leaders of destruction think that we are totally 'Lost'. We need a 'father figure' to guide us along the way in the 'best' way possible. So... do war, kill everyone, only the strongest survive, men don't cry, people have different rights according to their religious beliefs... Is that really so?

The abuse of the word terrorist is an abuse of the Word. We have abused our Earth, an aspect of our feminity that has been given as a gift to nourish us. Isn't this Earth an all-encompassing mother? Sure she will lead us to the other side when the time comes - she will become the inevitable grave - but isn't killing children a pre-mature way to die? As if abusing the Earth wasn't enough, we have abused the Word as well... The Word, the gift of our masculinity, is being used in order to lie and hide - not to guide, to light the way, to reveal. The word terrorist is being used for the bully, the Arab, the different person, the outsider. We must do our best to change the way we behave to bring change to our neighbours by changing ourselves. The change spreads in ways never seen before. CHANGE!

Pray that the leaders of destruction will be en-lightened soon because their darkness is great. Pray and do your best in all that you do. Be here, now in this difficult era, to bring peace back to its original essense - not to the meaning that has been distorted... The origin of peace is different than in the compound word 'peace'-makers which has come to mean war-makers. 'Terror'ist is he who creates terror in the lives of other people. Nations that have the ability to create war to take advantage of the rest of the world are creating 'terror' for the people they exploit and the people they drag along in this petty game of hate and greed.

Don't be fulled. This is a time when wolfs have learned well how to disguise themselves as sheep. But the fact remains that the Truth cannot be hidden for very long.

In a war all sides suffer. Do we really want this? Do we have a saying in what is happening around us? If we do, let us speak. Let us pray. Let us cry. Let us be...

Never the following words have been more relevant than they are today:

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one.

'Imagine', Lyrics by John Lennon

We have the strength to shape the world. All we have to do is take the responsibility to change personally. Take the responsibility of 'growing-up'. Everything is not 'all right', don't fool yourself.
