Why doesn’t everyone get along?
It can look as if we’re designed not to get along, and it can be all too easy to give up and be cynical about our chances of ultimately living together in harmony.
Thankfully, hope doesn’t die. It doesn’t even fade away. Hope is ever present and a cure for many ills.
What is empathy about?
It’s thinking of yourself as being the other person. The trouble can be that you or I might not be able to see past our own pain. It is a struggle admittedly to get thinking of the other person instead and what they’re going through.
I can’t pretend to be an expert, but there’s one thing I know for sure.
I haven’t given up on humanity. I can’t. I’m simply not able to. I know that humanity has a far greater future than anything we’re going through now.
Who is humanity? We are I am.
“We Are I Am” lyrics / poem by James Barnett
Heaven wants to manifest
In this hell that we call Earth
Let it be on Earth
As it is in Heaven
Wisdom cries out in the streets
Raises her voice in the markets
It is very dangerous to ignore her
When will we listen
When will we look for wisdom
Calling her a close relative
Applying her advice to our lives
Watching ourselves flourish
That’s what’s available
If we would only take heed and take hold
Of God’s promises
Which can be found all over
Abundance is our birthright
Our natural state of being
Our intended experience
There is so much more to our reality
Than we’re aware of
If we really knew
We’d never get bored at all
Let our eyes and ears be open
Let our minds ever expand
As we work to remember
The awesomeness of God’s plan
It’s all too easy to forget
It’s all too easy to feel so small
As if we don’t matter at all
As if we’re so alone
These lies are illusions
The truth is much greater
We are so big
We are so connected
We are
I am
Creation central is your mind
Evolution is progressive creation
We are all one
Separation is an illusion
I am you and you are me
That’s the start of empathy
And something vaster than we’ve ever known
It can be all too easy to forget
The oneness of us all
What is it like to wake up to that reality
Where we all live together in harmony
I want to stay there
I want to always be there
Thankfully there is good news in store
It’s really simple
It goes like this
Heaven is available
It’s already here
Heaven is here
There is so much more to our reality
Than we’re aware of
If we really knew
We’d never get bored at all
Let our eyes and ears be open
Let our minds ever expand
As we work to remember
The awesomeness of God’s plan
It’s all too easy to forget
It’s all too easy to feel so small
As if we don’t matter at all
As if we’re so alone
These lies are illusions
The truth is much greater
We are so big
We are so connected
We are
I am
Believing is seeing
See reality for how it really is
The visionaries transform life itself
Bringing forth what used to seem impossible
Now doable and already accomplished
Constantly repeatable
Expanding our territory
Beyond what we thought possible
A new paradigm of being
Excitement in creating
I can be a visionary, too
It takes persistence to make it real
Sometimes prayers do come true
However long it takes
Whether or not they do
Remember that it’s up to you
There is so much more to our reality
Than we’re aware of
If we really knew
We’d never get bored at all
Let our eyes and ears be open
Let our minds ever expand
As we work to remember
The awesomeness of God’s plan
It’s all too easy to forget
It’s all too easy to feel so small
As if we don’t matter at all
As if we’re so alone
These lies are illusions
The truth is much greater
We are so big
We are so connected
We are
I am
