Are We Capable of Changing Our World?
The Archangels Give Us a Pep Talk
Life is a big, fat struggle sometimes, isn’t it? While it may take a little time and effort to find proof of good things happening in the world, hearing and seeing the really crappy, scary stuff takes no effort at all. In fact, many of us, myself included, have reached a point where we avoid the news, because negativity is everywhere we look. We know bad stuff is going on, and we’re just tired of hearing about all the details. It’s depressing, upsetting, and downright overwhelming at times.
I know most of you are like me, and sometimes we wonder if it’s even possible that the world can change to the point where there is actual peace on Earth. I hit that point a few weeks ago, and I was feeling a little low. I’d been waiting to board a plane, and the news was playing on the TV in the waiting area, so I couldn’t escape it. It was full of hatred, pain, and suffering. The Ukraine was losing ground, more people were being killed and were suffering and dying in Gaza. People were starving, when there is enough food on Earth for everyone. College campuses were shutting down because hatred was being spread and people continued to choose sides. In some areas of the world, there was no relief in sight, and things just seemed so hopeless.
