Clarity of Innocence

It also determines how much self-doubt, anxiety, and internal stress we will live with, for all of our lives!

It shouldn’t, but it does right now, and that’s what this blog is all about!

The repercussions are staggering!

All together, this situation sets the values of our civilization!

This is the cause of war!

It’s also the quality that allows, or denies trust, love, and community life!

The power of life

All life is self-driven!

All life starts out with the inner power to feel right, and to survive!

It lives from its inner strength!

If it can’t, it’s broken!

When we are allowed to live from inside, we feel good, and we are awesome people at our very best!

People

Over many generations, people have, bit by bit, stopped allowing our young to keep their natural inner power!

Life is designed to live from its own inner drive!

We no longer allow that to happen!

No life can be healthy this way!

One consequence is hurt. Every one of us hurts to some degree now! We also live in anxiety.

Most of us hurt severely enough to disconnect from our own painful feelings!

Disconnection from our feelings also removes our connection to our own needs, as well as our instincts, and much of our awareness!

Consequences!

Suicide! Hate! Defiance! Despair! Weakness! Confusion! Greed! Lack of empathy!

The list is endless. It’s also appropriate for doing something so outrageous as to not allow another to live their own existence from inside, as all other life does!

Suicide makes no sense. It’s an attack on ourselves!

Consider this though. If we can’t feel our own needs, everything we try is guaranteed to make our lives worse, not better.

Our chances of hitting on the very thing we need most are so remote as to not exist.

Fully connected we are aware we need love and acceptance, but only as we really are. No secrets necessary!

We naturally accept our instinctive responsibilities, because that also feels right to us!

How many of us pursue these goals though?

When we accidentally achieve these things, we still become spontaneously happy.

That should be a clue, but we never see that. We can’t feel it!

We chase power and money. Then we remain unhappy!

Our behavior towards others becomes atrocious. That’s only because we can’t feel our own needs!

When we can, we would never risk any relationship through poor behavior.

When everything we try always makes everything hurt worse instead of better, suicide does start to make more sense, does it not?

The world is in endless conflict, all because none of us can feel our own needs!

Discipline!

Most of the world believes kids need discipline, or they will be disrespectful!

That’s because when an out of control child has a wake up call by a powerful and forceful adult, the disrespect stops!

This is backwards though! It doesn’t work that way, and never has.

The discipline may stop the troublesome behavior all right!

The behavior though, came from righteous anger because the child was not being allowed to express and live their actual authentic identity!

Discipline drives the frustration underground, only to emerge as the increasing hostility we live with throughout our population in these times.

This is what’s happening! It’s no solution! It’s a trip into creating a world of frustration and hate!

But, what if the child doesn’t do as we wish?

Well, they’re not supposed to! They are their own life!

If we don’t want real life, we shouldn’t have had kids. Subdued, they will be monsters! Accepted, they will be joy!

Kids allowed to be completely themselves are a natural wonder. They bring us energy, not sap it! They are the fun in life!

If any child is allowed to express their entire original and complete identity, there will never be hostility or troublesome behavior in the first place.

There will be only trust, love, and play!

Now this is a solution we can live with!

Decision time!

Most of us are going to be faced with this same decision at some point.

Do we want our offspring to feel powerful, have the best life possible through their own wishes and needs, and be compassionate, cooperative, and naturally responsible?

If so, then we need to allow them to drive their own lives, as all other life does. This means we must defy, and sometimes stand up to the system as much as can be done.

How exactly do we support our young to be strong, independent, and compassionate?

These answers lie within ourselves. Our instincts know exactly how to accept and support the strongest children as they develop their own abilities.

We need to ignore the world until it can do better. The goal should be the strongest and happiest adults, not obedient but helpless and troubled ones.

If all else fails, infants and children still have good connections with their own instincts, and will guide the process better than anything else could, except for our own instincts of course!

Obedience

On the other hand, do we wish to guide them down the path of our traditional beliefs, which puts them into the same anxiety we all live with, forcing them to work their entire lives at trying to fix, and improve themselves?

This alternative is what has made our civilization the way it is. We should never feel we have to improve ourselves. If we do, something already went terribly wrong somewhere!

Conflict, suicide, and hostility are growing trends. It doesn’t look good for the future.

On the other hand, there is increasing concern for human rights. The helpless are receiving better and better support as we move along.

There will probably come a time when the natural rights they are being told are theirs, expand to also include infants.

That will be a watershed moment! It will eliminate anxiety in the population!

That alone is going to reset our common path, moving it away from hostility and directing it into cooperation, making trust possible once again.

I expect that outcome will come as a surprise to most.

All of this is easily demonstrated. Conflict turns into cooperation just that quickly.

Want proof? What could be better than it works, and it’s instant if the kids are young enough. This is also the way of all life on the planet.

Mankind has drifted away from reality and nature, and we are paying dearly for that!

Allowed to live from within, resentment turns back into trust and appreciation.

Let it happen for long enough and love happens. Real love, not the standoff we think is love these days.

Perhaps there is more hope than it would appear!

Thanks for listening.
