Kid illusions

Everywhere I go people ask me about my plan for life and my desired work or education. They often become confused or even irritated and disappointed when I reply that I don't want to plan my life, but I want to live it, and that I only aspire what will give me happiness and love. The answers I get is that these are a typical youth dreams, that this teenage phase will disappear as soon as reality catches up and when you grow up to realise what life's really about. However, a few days ago I came across a book written by a palliative nurse that have been recording the most common regrets of the dying and put them in her book “The Top 5 Regrets of The Dying”, and what I found was the same youth dreams that are being stupefied and rejected as “just a teenage phase”. The number one was regretting not having had the courage to live a life true to oneself, but instead living the life others expected. The following deals with related feelings like regretting having worked to hard, not having had the courage to express ones feelings or not letting oneself be happier. This shows that how we're being taught to live our lives today is in fact just the phase that will pass as reality caches up and we grow in to realise, or rather remember, what life's really about. Don't make decisions you'll regret when its too late, and live based on your own knowledge of what life's about!

We're in a time of great tension. People all around the world are questioning their way of living, inequalities are becoming more visible and many are searching for the greater meaning of life. At the same time the western countries has serious financial loans and debts, socioeconomic disparities as well as youth unemployment are continuously increasing. Only this summer we have seen peoples frustration from all corners of the globe in what's been happening in Egypt, Brazil, Turkey and more. Regardless of how you choose to interpret these events, as a political awakening, a social awakening or a spiritual awakening, they are actually the same phenomenon explained in different ways. These riots are all the expression of a desire for change and the affects of a shift into a greater time on earth. So, try not to emphasize with the heavy and moody aspects of these occurrences. Explore the new, feel grateful, and welcome these changes instead of fearing them.  

Taking this fact to heart makes it pretty easy to leave the pity ego behind and embrace the wonder that is waiting in reality, activate your heart, your brain, your unused DNA and evolve to a being that is humble, loving and that experiences the real, grand life. I want with all my heart to be one of those, exploring this beautiful vastness of the universe and I hope that as many as possible wants to join and that we humans want to awaken after our numerous lifetimes in darkness. 

Is it possible to control man’s mental evolution so as to make him proof against the psychosis of hate and destructiveness? Here I am thinking by no means only of the so-called uncultured masses. Experience proves that it is rather the so-called “intelligentsia” that is most apt to yield to these disastrous collective suggestions, since the intellectual has no direct contact with life in the raw but encounters it in its easiest, synthetic form — upon the printed page. … But … here we have the best occasion of discovering ways and means to render all armed conflicts impossible.est occasion of discovering ways and means to render all armed conflicts impossible.

I always thought there was more... and I promise, it is... endlessly more.
