A Better Way
When you view what is happening around the world, the senseless violence, the anger and frustration and the addictions and excesses in which young people today are caught up and trapped in, you begin to wonder about a better way. Understand that it is not easy to live and function in that kind of negativity and a lot of our youth have been exposed from birth. They cannot understand so they try and drown their pain and sensitive natures in physical sensations of various sorts. They lash out in senseless violence when the pain becomes unbearable. Their senses are not deadened and dulled like those of the older generations. Their mental and emotional natures cannot tolerate the violence and the hate and fear they are exposed to on a daily basis. Do not blame the young ones, they are only magnifying what is presented to them by the adults around them.
If they are to learn respect, they must be respected; to learn unconditional love and to value life, they must be taught that they are worthy, loved and that life is a wondrous gift. If they are to be taught responsibility, others around them must be accountable and responsible for their thoughts, actions and deeds. They are magnifying and dramatically playing out the attitudes, concepts and beliefs of their parents, teachers and role models. They are powerful, wonderful souls but will continue to be self-destructive and to harm others until they are awakened to their calling and when they start looking inside themselves for the answers instead of outside. When they do this, they will transform before your eyes, and assume leadership roles as they take over and complete the tasks that you began.
