How can we have peace and harmony in this world? and is it possible?

I title this not to create the possibility of creating a negative look as to whether this type of world is possible but more so to get us to ask the question to ourselves “what is telling us it is not possible?” I know, and can see that when we look at the world today it is sometimes discouraging to think this can be possible. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t always as clear and sure this type of world could come about but that doesn’t mean I didn’t always have that spark inside of me.

When I look back at myself growing up I can still see the feelings I had towards this world thinking “we made all of this up so we can change it.” Also having the feeling inside of me that no matter what path I chose in life I would “be ok” once I got older. At the time I may not have known fully what that meant nor did it change all of the decisions I made but it was always there and I always felt it would come into play one day. As I got older and into my 20′s that feeling really expanded. Here I am almost 25 and I can tell you both from what I clearly see as the future as well as what I have experienced over the past 4 years that a world of Peace and Harmony is not only completely 100% possible but it has existed here and is our natural state.

 

I don’t intend this article to be one that will look back at the past and show how we can go back there but instead it will look at the now, what I have experienced and what is possible if we simply begin to think outside our current programming. By that I mean, how we have come to define ourselves and what it means to be a human on the planet.

 

So if this world seems hard to picture, hard to believe that it’s possible, take a look around and ask yourself why not? Talk to others and see how they feel. Don’t be afraid of people and talking about these subjects as many more are feeling this than you may think. Finally, if you think its not possible or that “human nature” says otherwise, ask yourself “What does it mean to be a human on the planet? Have I defined myself by this? Have i defined myself by my gender and do I play a certain role because of it? Does any of this truly hold truth?” Do this with and open mind and you will quickly see that we have made all of this up and we can change it the moment we become aware of it all.
