Harmony

My wife had a bad day the other day. And right before her worst spot, I was thinking about something I wanted to talk to her about which might lead to an argument. What, can't have arguments? That's what I thought before I started thinking about this post. Hey, if you want peace in the world, it takes effort and it might as well start with the family. No reason you can't just have a discussion. And you should never go into a discussion thinking you're right and your going to convince someone to your way of thinking. Harmony doesn't mean everyone thinks alike. Harmony is two notes that blend together to make a beautiful sound. Well, she hit and killed a dog with the car. Came out of nowhere, nothing she could do. What, your thoughts are responsible for the dog? Like I said, peace is hard work and you have to be connected on more than one level.

People say it's too much pressure, hand it all over to God. But God doesn't handle it. There's still too many very rough spots especially those going through war, famine, and crime. People say, God's there, helping you through the rough spots. But if we really want less rough spots, it's up to us. This centralized power and leadership paradigm is on the way out and God's always been about free will. There's too many leaders in corporations, government and religion that have a vested interest in keeping the average, everyday people divided and at each other's throats. Maybe there's not much one person can do if a majority wants to go to war, but before and after, do all you can to harmonize with other countries' people. And in the meantime, try to work toward harmony in your family, neighborhood, city, state and country. No reason to treat anyone in your country as the other. If we want peace, it's got to come from the ground up.

    1. Whatever it was it's gone into the ether as we begin a new paradigm of collaborative discussion.
