Our fast moving world is full of ego, judgment, and blame. We listen to the media to define our reality. We believe what we hear without questioning. We accept and tolerate more than we should. Truth is spun and re-spun and takes on many disguises.
Hype streams in and takes us over. We are overwhelmed with messages streaming from t.v., internet, radio, and printed sensationalism. We allow others to write our script and direct our way.
We can stay deadened, conditioned, and controlled, affecting the foods we eat, the shows we watch, the books we read, the things we buy. Heck, we follow the crowd and go along with it all. But this acceptance comes at a cost.
Blind acceptance in the material world inculcates fear, fostering unhealthy attachment and addiction. Remaining bound to material attachments makes us lose our way.
Choosing to unplug or disconnect from all distractions by turning to the self is the start to finding our way. Only in silence, stripped of noise, can we see clearly. Only in the privacy of stillness and in awesome dialogue between the self and Spirit can we hear the stirrings of our soul. Only with focused will, patience, and committed determination can we discover Truth.
We can write our own scripts with the choices we make. However, choices made from fear are not right choices. When we are mindlessly unaware and out of touch with ourselves, truth gets blurred. Allowing others to flip the script and direct our path is a consequence of accepting others' truth and compromising our true self.
If we choose to plug inwardly, we can re-connect with the greatest source of all Truth. In dark silent surrender, we may ask for what we need. Our direct, unbiased route to truth lies preciously tucked within. We possess the most accurately tuned radio pathway that can be relied upon and trusted for directing us to Divine purpose. Spirit is our best guide and will replace fear with faith, renewing hope.
