What you leave behind
Your legacy
For a lot of people that’s their children
They focus on the next generation to carry on their name
But, can it be more than that?
I’ve been thinking about what we leave behind
If it’s true that we are all a collective conscious and all connected, does that mean when one hurts we all hurt?
When there is sickness in one, is it in us all?
It says in the Talmud, that If you save one life you save the entire world
So what if the evil at the base of our society that some totally feed off
Could be balanced by the good and gentle, that serve and love and pray
If those are the extremes, what are the rest of us in the middle doing?
No harm but very little good either
Maybe that's why in the Bible it says it's bad to be lukewarm
Hmm
Prayerful and hopeful
Loving each other
Being kind to each other
It's a softer way to live
I like that
We are all so flawed and try so hard to pretend we're not
I think that's why we feel so separate from one another
If we turned on our own light it would be easy for others to see us
Then they could turn on their light and so on and then this human experience would be a spiritual one and we'd all be connected and lit up
Instead we are alone in our darkness trying to hide what everybody else has and is hiding too
How terribly sad
This is why you can't feel love and be fearful at the same time
They are opposing forces
The rapper 50 Cent says,” you can't worry and pray at the same time. “
If he gets it, I can get it
His light
My light
Your light
Now that’s a legacy we can all leave behind
