Thank you for your kind reply, filled with wisdom and great ideas to keep myself on point and focused.
I do my best, I'm trying to do better. I'm very analytical and love understanding things but I do get, somethings are just not possible
or necessary for me to understand and I must do what I can where I can and let go of the rest.
My mind is always replaying these questions though so either sufficient clarity will come OR it will run its course and subside.
I truly appreciate the feed back anyway. I almost feel better just because I asked somebody and got the questions out of my head.
I think my eyebrows would have fell off if anyone actually had an actual answer that resonated lol I'm beyond grateful
for the feed back and the wide advise =)
Happy New Year and New us!

I also get that there are so many things in dire circumstances these days. The planet; animal and plant life; the ecosystems and oceans; and so on. I have heard about some of the pending dangers that are being talked about at this point from greenhouse gases for example.
Regarding this, I try not to, and Ra said don't, get "caught up in the maelstrom." No matter how bad it is here, I try to stay focused on why I am here. In another part of the Ra material, Ra said "if you come upon a starving entity, the correct response is to feed that entity" (paraphrased). So, two things which work together: stay focused on the person you want to be, and, help where you can. By staying focused on you, your mission (and that is something you can decide for yourself), and helping those entities that come across your path, you help the world.
When I feel the pain of the suffering here, I try and shift focus to what I CAN do while I am here. I can't take a person's suffering from them, but I can help the friend who is sad by listening; I can't stop humanity from destroying, but I can create joy by engaging in what I am passionate about.
Also, seek detachment—not detachment that means you don't care, detachment from expectations. Help to keep possibilities open (the wave function) by not collapsing into particular outcomes (the particle function).
