Living In My Own World

60 Years Since Gandhi’s Death and Where Are We Today?

January 30th marks the 60th anniversary of the assassination of one the most influential heroes in human history.

One of Gandhi’s most famous quotes is “be the change you want to see in the world”.

Because Ghandi knew that the only way to make a true difference in this world is first by changing yourself. He understood that every thought we have and every action we take instantly affects others; whether its the people closest to us or a random person on the other side of the planet (aka the Butterfly Effect). He knew and understood that we are part of ONE collective consciousness.

So as the 60 year anniversary of this great man stands before us, let us think about this list of people we are influencing. Is our life showing them the change we want to see in the world? Will their lives reflect the lessons they learned from watching us?

If not, that is ok. Because it’s not too late.

You and I can start today. Right now. This second.

And may peace, love and compassion prevail on planet Earth.

North American Union and Vchip Truth (Video)

This is the picture that is painted for the future, if you open your eyes to see it: a centralized, one word economy where everyone’s moves and everyones transactions are tracked and monitored, all rights removed.

The most incredible aspect of all: these totalitarian elements will not be forced upon the people; the people will demand them.. For the social manipulation of society and through the generation of fear and division has completely detached humans from their sense of power and reality in a process which has been going on for centuries, if not millenniums. Religion, patriotism, race, wealth, class and every other form of arbitrary, separatist identification thus can see has served to create a controlled population utterly malleable in the hands of the few.

“Divide and Conquer” is the motto. And as long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved.

The men behind the curtain know this and they also know that if people ever realized the truth of their relationship to nature and the truth of their personal power, the entire manufactured Zeitgeist they prey upon would collapse like a house of cards.

Why The Rest of the World Hates America

Well there’s at least one thing I LOVE about America, and that is FREEDOM OF SPEECH:

So, how do YOU feel about America???

Diamonds are Forever, But Lives Are Not

I was born with a mission: a strong, inner sense of knowing that something about the world as we know it was just not right. And that my mission, if I so choose to accept it, is to make a difference.

I know that I’m not alone in this, so anyone out there who has felt the same way knows what a screwed up, fucked up, emotionally and mentally exhausting job that is. It’s not easy, I can tell you that.

But what’s ultimately most frustrating is this:

The more we open our eyes to the truth of how things currently are, the more we see.

And the more we see, the more we want/need/desire/hope/pray/fight to change.

And people, it never ends.

So its no surprise that a girl like myself starts her night with some casual surfing the net and suddenly finds herself signing online petitions, shocked and dismayed, in yet another desperate attempt to make a change.

“The time has come to stop supporting tribal warfare, genocide, and acts of terror.

The time has come to end the manipulation and brainwashing that the corrupt De Beers company has enacted these last eighty years.

The time has come to stop buying diamonds.

Completely.

No diamond rings. No diamond earrings. No diamond necklaces or bracelets or watches.

When we wanted to stop elephants from being poached, the world had to stop buying ivory.

If we want to end the wholesale slaughter and exploitation of Africans, we must stop buying diamonds.

And, we must do it now.”

You are welcome to join this mission (if you so choose to accept it)…

But then again, if not you, then who?

How to Live Greener Without Really Trying

Not all of us can throw our bodies in front of tractors that are about to cut down trees or walk around naked in a protest against fur… And you know what? That’s okay! Not all of us have to!

But its pretty naive to assume that if you cant join in on the bigger causes then any other effort is worthless. Ironically enough, getting more people to make smaller changes in their lifestyle can ultimately have a much bigger impact on the planet than joining in on the current minority of “tree hugging fanatics” as I have heard them been called.

Having said that, I am currently working on a new blog called Green Your Day which I hope will focus exactly on this: on the small, seemingly insignificant things we can all start doing TODAY for greener living.

Think of it as “The Lazy Person’s Guide to Greener Living”. Ideal for all those out there who think: “Yeah, but what could I possibly do about it?”

So anyway, check it out as I get this blog rolling and even more importantly: If you have any easy and/or fun environmental tips which you think might be a match for the site, please send them to me at livinginmyownworld@gmail.com and I promise you will get the credit you deserve.

Once again, thanks for helping me change the world one post at a time…
