Pursue wisdom over intellect. Place more focus on wisdom rather than intellect.

We are all just another generation of human beings exploring and experiencing our time right here and now on planet earth. We are not the 1st here or likely to be the last here. All be it our egos forgets this at times and we think we are the only generations to have existed on planet earth through our inner blinded ignorance. Our many ancestors before us and our children that go behind us we all come in and go out, just like the car parking spaces at tescos on a busy Saturday morning- one car pulls out another car pulls in. We all come in and go out having our own unique life experiences and journeys. Our time is now and yet this information, these insights and learnings we uncover/discover and I am attempting to share is forever old. As old as the day it all began. However Perhaps it is a new day for you.

As technology and external comforts evolve it seems we as the overall human race haven’t seemed to quite equally matched & balanced out this current rate of technological development in terms of our overall human behaviour, evolved human ethical ways and patterns of thinking, emotional connection/understanding and compassionate behaviours towards ourselves, others,individually and as nations.

We still fight and conflict individually from within ourselves and with others daily in our lives. As a mass of nations daily we equally conflict, fighting and wars continue centuries on , just in more subtle sophisticated technological ways, all with the touch of a button rather than the pull of a trigger or going over the top.  Has anything really changed for us years on despite our huge technological advances ? Our weapons of defence and mass destruction have evolved over the decades but surely the greatest evolution of all would be not needing of them at all and discarding them all together? External Technology evolution what about the inner human evolution? Technology has evolved and boomed but what about the evolution and the blossoming of the human spirit? Famine, fighting, disease, human fear still all spreads as our techno age thrives. Centuries ago iphones, televisions didn’t exist ago we fought, suffered from disease

In a world that’s ever changing we as humans don’t seem to have changed that much.

As fast as our external wealth and the industrial revolution has risen our own  human internal growth, humanistic communication and overall spiritual development – label and call it what you like, unfortunately has not mirrored the same rate of growth as whitnesssd in our technological golden age. As our technological external world rises and thrives our own inner world and connection sadly declines. One graph goes up while the other graph goes down.

We all generally have nicer, faster, safer cars in this day and age but yet we are Still happy to stick our two fingers up at people in traffic mostly through our own created self stresses. From behind the illusional safety of our own car steering wheels. In our most rapid period of evolved technological machines to living date rather than send a loving or understanding thumbs up or shoot an easy smile we still would rather stick our two fingers up in anger and swear at the other driver.Why, when we have never had it so good? The other human being driving his or her car on the same piece of road that we are all connected to and share. What we don’t always realise is that we are all connected. What we all do on this earth effects us all as a whole, no matter how big or small. Beep your car horn in frustration and anger and another driver hears and feels that anger and frustration. Thus the power of our frustrated angry thought energy spreads and vibrates out there into the world around us and beyond. All of Our thoughts no matter how big or small all create there own actions, energy and behaviours that all send its own energy and vibration into the world.

And what we often don’t realise is that these types of thoughts and behaviour patterns towards others impact ‘us’ just as much as it effects the other drivers and people around us. All of our own inner energy acts like an domino effect and has the ability to spread to others and within us. What we send out into this world has a habit of coming right back to us. Maybe not immediately but always eventually.Life is simply a mirror, what we put in front of it we get back as our own energetic reflection. Smile and get a smile back, pull a silly face and you know what you get right back.We may get angry at another driver for not indicating but truly the anger has always been alive and present hidden from within in us. And the non indication of the other driver acted as a trigger to our tightly contained bubbling stresses. Negative thinking and behaviour impact us and our lives more than the person or situation we direct them towards. Still motivated from fear instead of love.

We all daily have a conscious choice to either spread cure or disease in our thoughts and energy from within and towards others, driving in our cars or walking down the street are we infecting people with our energy or curing n healing people in our daily interactions? Are we the solution or the problem?

We create our own reality & experiences from our own inner thoughts and self created perceptions.

Mechanical Engines have evolved and are far superior and efficient these days but has our own inner engine, the heart, grown and evolved to such an extent also? Cars have evolved but have the drivers themselves truly evolved? We have more speed in our lives but what about our spirit?

As External growth excels our internal growths suffers and declines. Everything truly comes from within. So why are we so desperate to look from without to find ourselves and our happy?

As a mass of human beings all thrown together right now on this planet for the most part We still don’t know or understand ourselves in our daily living active lives individually any better, emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually or mange to treat others with the kind of quality kindness & compassion we would also like to receive back. At times we find it hard and very challenging to treat others as we would also like to be treated based on our own worries, insecurities, fears, judgements and inner insecurities. We are cyber connected but are we emotionally and compassinalty connected to who we are and others around us?

Sadly For most We have not grasped our true potential of our own inner super powerful human capacities and true strength of inner light. Most driven from our darker fears rather than our lighter truer self love. Therefore do we send light or darkness into this world of ours?

We know and understand our phones, cars & houses workings better than we know ourselves at times. Generally More comfortable to “add to basket” instead of “go inside of ourselves”.

As we gain more and more around us materially, becoming faster & faster, moving with more efficiency & economically productivity in our daily routines we create an external growth but often at the cost of an internal deficit and emotional debt. We may have big full  houses but it’s our own “inner housing” that is the one that is truly empty when we go home at night.

As our economic growth rates flourish often the counter balance is that our physical emotional and mental states unhealthily decline. Sometimes the more we ‘want’ the more we ‘wander’ away from our truest sense of self and ultimate life happiness.

A precious loss & prise to our overall internal Heath, happiness and the priceless relationships around us… Materially we are thriving but internally we are more struggling and stressing. More stressed than thriving. Trust me in saying, cancer was the disease and a counter product to our human health of the rise of technology in the 60’s, mental health will soon be the new disease of our times. Just as once cancer was unknown and now as common as the microwaves we cook from sadly in my opinion mental health is the next disease wave and fashion we are going experience on a whole new level as we disconnect from our human essence and over load and over work our minds often with non essential stuff, social media, advertising etc in our striving for more externally. The mind/brain just like the skeletal muscles that hold our physical  bodies together can be overworked, not looked after correctly and burned out. Many have suffered and died as a consequence of cancer, self/ technology/ industrially created. Mental health will also be a more prevalent disease by product of the lifestyles we have now created in time soon to come in my own personal opinion.

Soon we will have “been” & forgotten to just ‘be’. Our lives tend to be more frantic & busy but are they “full” and “whole” filled with the right stuff that truly makes us happy as humans? Love, relationships.Connections. Recognition and love is all we truly strive for underneath all of our pursuits and goals desires and that pulls our emotional strings.

So busy ‘Doing’ we miss out on just ‘Being’. Being present in the power of NOW. The greatest life and self freedom. Our minds sensory overloaded, like a bee hive our minds buzz n buzz of everything that is fed our way.

Cars, watches, houses, stuffs they makes us “comfortable” but do they make us “complete” and “content” ? Do We live these busy lives, with stress and struggle to get stuff that ultimately at the core human level does not truly satisfy our human needs?

Man has always struggled with his fears, insecurities, ego & greed to mention a few basic humanistic potentially self destructive emotions and drives, the way in which we understand and mange these human traits has still not evolved to the rate as what our technologically age & material wealth has evolved.  We have may have evolved the engine but not our inner egos.

Man can control and happily understand all of his technologically appliances with the touch of a button from the comfort of his own sofa but still can’t seem to control or understand his own inner fears, insecurities, Hungary greeds or aching macho ego…

Man can connect to the other side of the world via Internet & video telephone calling but still can’t manage to connect to his deepest most honest feelings, thoughts, connect and feel his inner emotions with himself and express and share to the special loved ones around him… Happy to connect to hundreds and thousands on the web/social media superficially on the surface yet can’t connect to the most important deep relationship in the world that one with himself, that when discovered is the true power to connecting to others and living a full life. When we truly connect from within all of our relationships around us go to the next amazing level. Personally and professionally. Why is it we are happy to artificially,cyber connect with the world yet are afraid to connect with our own inner self world? We are so focused and attached to our virtual reality we miss and become detached from our true physical reality.

We live in the age of social media, so connected with the swipe and press of our thumb , yet so disconnected from the true real moment we stand and breathe in. We stand or sit there twiddling our thumbs frantically reaching out to thousands around the globe yet a million miles away from the person stood or sat next to us, or who we are even talking to. Our mouths move but our mind distracted and a million miles away from the 1 meter radius we stand in and the actual present moment.

Do we ‘Use’ or get ‘Used’ by this mediums or technology? Are we Simply Addicted or adding quality to our lives?

We can connect to the other side of he world but not to the person we stand next to in the elevator, subway tube, bus or in the shopping line.

We seem to be able to understand and use technology daily never off our phones or laptops but still struggle to understand ourselves. We use up all the mega bytes on our iPhones & computers but don’t seem to be able to use & access our own inner powers, and own mental mega bites to daily and truly connect with others and most importantly ourselves. We are on the phone constantly but do we ‘truly’ connect with others? Are they meaningful connections and contacts ? We may have lot off cyber ‘followers’ but how many reality real friends? How ever underneath our twiddling thumbs is the greatest human desire to connect.  To reach out feel and  connect with one another that is the underlining human emotion we are all expressing here. Facebook, instagram, twitter, whattapp is all designed for us to connect.. We all want to connect, feel, be liked, approved off and loved wether its via twiddling our thumbs or talking and in the real presence off our loved ones.  At times our phones, tablets and laptops are a great way to connect ,stay in touch, bank, shop and many other useful practical things  but sadly more often or not we become ‘used’ by these devices instead of actuating using ‘them’.  We become addicted and disconnect from the true real reality moment we are in. Thru our lack of self awareness and present consciousness we dull the true moment we stand in , forgetting to breathe, exchanging our real physical reality for the illusional cyber existence. Sometimes the notorious  ‘selfife’ sabotages the moment. Because lack of self responsibility and self awareness we loose the true moment we are instead of absorbing it all and sucking it all in for what its presenting to us. When we ‘abort’ the moment we are in stead of ‘Absorbing’ it our lives can feel rushed, hurried, overly busy and too overwhelmingly fast at times , as if our lives are slipping faster and faster thru the egg timer of our lives, our minds over busy, complicated and stressed.

So many off us live on the surface of who we are hiding behind theses social medias masks projecting what we want the world to see off us and be socially accepted. Living on the surface of who we are not authentically truly connecting with ourselves on a more, real, rewarding level we miss out on the greatest beauty of who we are and were born to be. Also missing out  connecting with others.  When we live on the surface scared to truly delve deeper into who we are and this life say we miss out on some much.

do we like to play it safe and live on the surface of our lives, not truly honestly connecting or committing or truly delve deep into the exciting discovery of ourselves and life? Connecting and feeling more with our commitment to it all.

Our pursuit for material wealth far exceeds our internal wealth at times. Truly our inner health is our most valuable wealth.  Is it not time we evolve more as individuals that in turn effects the general masses, as we are the masses, and the way we could all potentially live together, to each grow more internally, mentally,emotionally, in the way we treat others,ourselves as a whole to match and mirror our technological gains and progresses. Thus actually become happier. And find ourselves feeling truly daily purposeful and having peak life Real experiences.  Instead of superficial surface boring,easy.

Why do we still attempt to fill what it is we are missing on the inside from things that live surround around us on the outside.? .. When all we have is right there, here, living and waiting patiently inside us. Our true gold lives inside us…

To have material wealth creates comfort and is very enjoyable at times, however is it an essential ingredient to forfillment of our essence? The motives of our material drive is the real question to be asked.

When we finally go to our graves we won’t receive a final “Bank statement” or have our qualifications read, film credit list announced out or the number of followers we have on instagram engraved on our head stone, we only have our experiences to hold and remember and the love in our hearts to feel, soak up & keep us safe.. Our relationships, connections and great life experiences. It is our spirit that resonates and lives on. Not our depreciating material items that eventually crumble or get sold on to strangers. Love and experience can’t be sold and only grows more precious.

As Gandi said… Be the change you wish to see in the world.
