revolution

[weareone]

There is a revolution that is happening in the world. This revolution is not about changing the “wrongdoers”. This revolution is about changing the only thing that can be changed, yourself. If you look around and are not satisfied, do you blame something or someone? If so, what or who do you blame?
If we see something that is causing us pain, we are looking at it in a new way. We are looking at how we are reacting to this thing. We are asking what thoughts of ours are painful, and we are eliminating them. We are realizing that if we see something as “bad” that is only because of the certain perspective we now have. We are realizing that this perspective will change because that is the way of the world.
Every day we are making choices about how we live. We make a choice about every action we take. Most of the choices for the actions have, for most of us, become subconscious. Something that we have no control over. If you are not in control of these choices you are not in control of yourself.
So we are making the choice to be in control of our choices. In beginning to become aware of these choices will see what choice leads to dissatisfaction, and what choice leads to joy.
And in being in control of our choices, we will be in control of how we view every situation. And therefore we are in control of what we view as “good” or “bad”. We are becoming aware of every choice we make. And to make these choices there is only one place that we are going, inside. We are asking that part of us deep down, and we are finding that we always have the answer. And through this we are realizing that we don’t have to take the good with bad. We don’t have to live fear in order to know peace. We are choosing peace, and we are finding joy through our choice. I ask you now, what do you choose?

And yet you are EVERYONE. That's even scarier. I am everyone, even those who make me feel like throwing up.
