You know there are things people don’t even dream about. You know that faith can help you achieve anything you want. Perhaps you’re an empath and you can feel emotions of others. Maybe you know more than others. Or maybe you just love to help. I know one thing for sure – knowledge is responsibility – what are you going to do with your knowledge?

The problems of our world

People are using knowledge to fight – fight with terrorism, fight with cancer, fight with poverty. This is not the way things should be. Knowledge should be used to help, to make a difference – unfortunately, people prefer to learn and keep the knowledge for themselves. Can you share your knowledge?

“Collecting data is the first step to wisdom, but sharing data is the first step to community.”

What are the problems of the world today? People know things, but they’re afraid of saying them. People see the pain, but they’re afraid of acting on it. People aren’t talking among themselves because they’re afraid what others might thing about them. People are living in their little close worlds and they don’t want to see the world outside – the real world. They are collecting money, and spending them on ego-space trips – this is sick! People are afraid of opening their eyes.

How to make a difference?

Open your eyes! See the real world, see the truth – see the pain around you, notice people who need help. And don’t talk about pain, illnesses, poverty etc. Talk about making this world a better place. And then start acting – because talking is not enough. Help someone who need help, give some money to charity, share at least small part of your knowledge with those who need it. Show people how they could make their lives better. And love people…

“Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence.” – Eric Fromm

We don’t need aliens or so-called “Federation of Light” to turn this planet into paradise. Even if they exist, they won’t help us. We have to help ourselves, we have to turn this planet, we have to change our way of thinking. You will ask: “OK, I will change myself, but others won’t! What’s the point?“. You have mentioned the point, and know that Mohandas Ghandi mentioned it also:

“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”

If everyone will be thinking that others won’t change, nothing will change – nothing! So don’t think about others, but change yourself and show love to others – trust me, they will start doing the same. Be proud of who you are and what you’re doing – as long as you know you’re doing the right thing.

Open your eyes

This entry should be regarded to poverty, mainly. It should present ideas related to dealing with poverty etc. But I think it’s impossible to focus just on one problem of this world and look for ways of dealing with it. I believe there is only one answer for all problems – love. I’m talking to everyone right now: change yourself, give love and accept love. And the world shall know peace…

You have the knowledge – therefore, your mind is enlighted  – now what are you going to do with this knowledge? Are you going to sit down and close this page? Will you engage discussion? Or maybe you will close this page and go making a difference?
