If we aren’t living from the energy within us, then we feel like something is very wrong!
That’s because something is very wrong!
Our strength comes from within. It’s natural. It’s how all life lives and feels.
We need to be feeling strong and important before we can be good and loving people.
Our compassion, our morals, and our need to please others to earn their support, all come from being able to feel our own needs and instincts.
To be who we are, our energy has to come from the inside.
When that happens, people are the kindest and most loving creatures anywhere.
We only turn hostile when we don’t get to live from our energy within.
Without our inner energy and guidance, we aren’t ourselves!
We aren’t connected with our feelings, instincts, or needs.
Living from within
Most of us, if not all, lose connection with our inner lives in infancy now!
The result is a world that is hostile and violent!
Why can’t infants live from the energy coming from the inside?
We don’t let them.
Any one of us, on our own, would encourage our young to develop their own strength and abilities!
It’s instinctive for us to do that.
But, we aren’t doing that now!
Peer pressure causes us to follow the demands of society.
Sadly, we’re shutting down everything coming from within our children!
We control our young now rather than encourage them!
Unfortunately, peer pressure and control don’t bring anything good into our world. It’s all bad!
The loss of our inner lives has changed families, and then entire populations.
The loving and exciting inner qualities of most of us are missing from the world now.
Our inner lives no longer get expressed.
We have stopped supporting their very existence.
We support the demands of society instead.
These are taking us all to extinction.
People are hostile now.There are no brakes though! There is no limit to how bad things can get!
We have seen it before.
This time though, we are bringing the entire planet full of people along with us.
All this hate and fighting, and at the same time, this is nothing like who people really are!
People are naturally loving, and can’t do enough for each other.
But, that comes from within!
CAN WE STOP THE DESTRUCTION?
We need to allow the lives and the energy of our young to come from within!
Then we get the good stuff!
Then the world becomes loving again!
By following society’s demands our world is committing suicide!
We should be following our instincts, and supporting the inner wisdom of life!
We should be supporting our kids in their own lives and efforts!
Doing this, all by itself, fixes everything! It really does fix all of the world’s problems.
These problems are not solvable without the expression of our inner lives.
Unrestrained hostility leads directly to extinction.
Our only hope lies within us.
We need to be complete!
We have a natural right to be complete!
PROOF?
Look around!
Every child supported in their own development is wonderful.
Every child criticized into obedience is trouble!
This is so obvious it’s a miracle we can manage to not see it!
Our own instincts know!
We need the courage to use our own inner guidance and support our young in their own efforts.
Then we get all the good stuff!
Every child forced to comply is destructive and troubled.
Every child supported and encouraged along their own path is kind, supportive, and responsible!
Investigate! Really look! Accept that reality.
Don’t forget to notice the pure joy that also happens when we allow independence. Conflict disappears too.
This is all our young ever wanted! It’s nature’s way! Life is designed to be driven from within!
Nuture is designed to support it.
Thanks for listening.
