Entering Another’s Bubble

Entering another’s bubble is a sometimes frightening thing. I try to select people who don’t have armored bubbles. There is less chance of conflict and confrontation. After all, each of us is the Creator’s representative within our personal bubble. I am also one of the Creator’s creatures and would share a bit of the vision the Great Spirit gave me for it is the way and the truth. You might wonder why anyone would want to share anything with a stranger when the safest course in this civilization is steering clear of everyone you don’t need to have contact with as a means of avoiding violence and abuse, especially if you happen to be profiled on the basis of race and status. But speaking the word of peace requires a certain amount of risk-taking in the world of violence into which we human beings have awakened.

It is not simply a matter of preaching to the choir for the choir already knows the song of the community of life and sings it to the best of its ability. The speaking of the word of peace is the speaking of truth to power for if its power cannot be turned from violence to creativity humanity will cease to be human and lapse into a spiritual and psychic darkness.

Reaching out and being rejected remains a painful personal experience but not reaching out is an abdication of our responsibility to future generations and the growing diversity and complexity of the creation. We humans are not the only conscious species on the Earth or the creation and the Great Spirit, the mystery of life has the ability and the process in place to evolve spirit filled awakened beings to God’s intent. If we should fail to learn the way that makes for life it will not be for lack of signs and miracles and guides along the journey through time. It will be because we came to a moment of profound choice and chose to ignore the truth and followed the lie that coils its way around our desire to be as gods.
