Yes, we are in an artistic lull (for what is popular lately).

…Yet still, some artists stay true on the path and create something cleaner and healthy… today… Honest and Brave.

That is the actual Liberation.

Respectfully - I don’t see how mega-mansions and huge-trucks could be considered ‘environmentally safe’.

And people should also consider the “social-impact of earning”…

since most mansion-owners “leeched” their money via white-collar jobs at exploitative corporations.

…In my opinion - the entire downstream effect of our choices must be considered.

(I write this in the spirit of unified awareness - I know you aren’t pushing for mansions or trucks)

Yes - and I think connecting with your soul again means having real authentic fun.

Doing what you feel is right, and what you fully love to do.

It’s true - we channel our energy and creativity, for building what is good - beyond.

The ultimate method is:

Cultivate your own ‘Subscribed’ feed.

Then almost every post is good.

You choose your own level of involvement.

A friendly thought for you:

If your beliefs can change your body (which is part of the universe), and your changed body can further change the universe...

then transitively... your beliefs can change the universe, right?

And if that is true, then perhaps belief can be more than a placebo... Maybe it is a real, effective, psychological muscle.

Be honest:

Who do you think is more likely to hit the game-winning free-throw?

  • a guy who looks at the hoop thinking “aw crap I’m gonna airball, and everyone is gonna laugh at me”
  • a guy who looks at the hoop thinking “okay I’m gonna swish this, and my whole team is going to celebrate”

Many top-achievers describe the power of visualizing success (positive manifestation).

Many people who pray are cultivating healthy virtues (patience, kindness, strength).

Have you ever heard the term “self-fulfilling prophecy”?

Hold strong and stay true to your principles…

They need us more than we need them.

“97% of UPS workers represented by the Teamsters voted to authorize the largest single-employer strike in U.S. history if there's no acceptable contract deal in place by the end of July.”

 

You are always free to return…
