Are we going to just sit there or evolve?

Evolve

As an artist I have a lot of time to investigate what is going on in the world, especially behind the scenes. I have come to the conclusion that it is entirely possible for humans to overcome this dense dark shadow hovering over our earth, infuse it with the light of love, and get on with being the creative souls we were always meant to be.

How do we start to work towards rescuing humanity from insanity?

We start by leading our own life and seeking our truths.
We start by not settling.
We start by questioning.
We start by looking around us and seeing the truth and not denying it.
We start by knowing what we would like to see on the planet, on the earth and for the children and all remaining species.
We start by living and loving and learning how to lose and say goodbye and face up to our weaknesses and to bolster our strengths.
We develop consumer consciousness.

We learn by looking around us and seeing the oppression and suffering of other people and animals and trying to feel it, even though we ourselves may neither suffer or feel desperate. We can never truly feel it, not when we are privileged or healthy. When we can walk when others can't, we cannot truly ever know how it is, but we can imagine it. Doing this teaches us compassion, respect, love and understanding, which, when combined can ultimately make this world a livable place for all who inhabit it.

We must also hold onto our wild side, our child self and keep the sparkle in our eyes alive. Keep that playful, wild part of oneself. It is the endearing part of the spirit, it is the spirit of life and hope that gives us the strength to move forward with purpose no matter the foreboding forecast and seemingly insurmountable odds of doing nothing less than changing the world for the better.

Evolve

The most pressing element of life
Is the preservation of earth and sky
The greatest distraction from this
Is the presence
Of manufactured wars
And Climate disruption
The only solution then is,

The desire to implement
Our intuition and skills
To simply evolve as a species,
By overcoming the darkness

For humanity is a bud waiting to blossom
Into the flowering orchid
It was always meant to be.
