Challenging apathy, ambivalence and defeatism...

There are so many topics to choose from to blog about this month… My creative juices are still running way in front of my competence!

At present I continue to challenge myself to grasp the basics of creating an online business. Some days I simply feel too thick to learn. I wouldn’t bother except I feel like there are ‘thirsty’ people everywhere and I know where there is a well that never runs dry! I feel responsible to at least point to the path that leads to nourishment and sustenance. It is not a theoretical path or a computer generated simulation either, it is the inner first journey that ultimately leads to personal freedom.

When things get tough in my life, my default setting is activated and defeat has been my first port of call. In the past it has pinned me down until I get myself free of it and move on. Defeatism doesn’t hang around these days though, not for long. I notice that as I feel that defeated feeling, it moves on and I start hearing whisperings of hope and ‘what if’s?’ Then I am off again. It is such a relief to know defeat and not be trapped by it.

These are challenging times we live in, no matter what superficial illusion is painted for us. We have some ugly aspects to atone for and some serious problems to solve (like the degradation of our care for each other). If we stop caring we are done for. I care to challenge apathy, ambivalence and defeatism with belief and faith in our evolutionary integrity as species. We are capable of so much more yet. I am one of many saying ‘Bring it on’. Which side of history will you land on? It is in every moment that you get to choose.

And that’s it, from my view. May the force (of love) be with you,
