"The [human] species will never learn to co-exist if given total freedom."

[JustAThought]

A lot of people are saying that humanity is waking up. I will likely be pounced on for saying this, but I just don't see it. I feel most of humanity is more asleep and disconnected than ever on a real level (at least in the US), while paradoxically being more "informed" and connected than ever via the Internet and mass media. It could be that the STS powers of control are ramped up in reaction to the levels of awareness emerging in our world, but the result is still an anesthetized populace.

You are right, it can seem like that. I often feel like the earth is a place of empty ears and empty hears. People are still thriving on fear, negativity and unreachable ideals we get bombarded with every day. Everyone makes his own reality though, has his own way of looking at things. I had a pretty grim view of the world not so long ago, but actually you can just look at all the turmoil out there and see that its nothing more than old, bad Karma coming back to people to be dissolved. And the world is getting a tad bit lighter everytime.

The way I see it, more and more people are also realizing that the old ways are not going to make us happy, they might not know whats behind it all, but once people start to rearrange their lives it will get better. because thats their intention. I do see more and more people trying to love their lives, make their dreams reality, instead of hunting after more money to buy whatever stuff they dont need.
All we can do really is have faith and send our love to all our fellow human beings. Change is not happening overnight. The world will not awaken overnight, it might not in our lifetime. Or maybe it will... but in any case we are here to set the foundation for it to happen.
