Get Out of the Norm

It is easy to blame Obama for the situation we are in. After all, we Americans love to play the blame game. Of course, the trillions of dollars we will owe in debt is Obama’s fault but we have to admit George’s second term lacked fiscal responsibility. Having said that, this spiral did not happen over night. We could not be at this place in time had the system and it’s people not been broken a long time ago. We have become a country of little substance and Obama is happy to be our town crier. He has crammed through thoughtless and unread bills through the House and has high hopes of doing the same through the Senate. How did we get to this juncture in the first place? I believe one of the biggest movements to get us in this quandary is the New Age movement. I have studied Spiritual Metaphysics for over 10 years. The true understanding of the Metaphysical world and how it applies to matter is a life time education and diligence to practice. People have simplified the concepts of New Age and used them to create a world view. For example, we have vegetarians putting more stock in the life of an animal then they do people. Most of these fanatics are pro-choice and see no issue with the killing of millions of babies. They do take issue with killing a cow though and we must begin to ask why? We are the head of the food chain and a human life is more precious then that of an animal. Of course, I support organic farming. I have for years. I believe the food is better for you and the animals are treated with respect. I supported organic farming long before it was the in thing. I have also always been a conservative so we need to stop accepting the idea that green is only a left precept. Many vegetarians feel we all must adopt their agenda and food choices. Much like religious fanatics that only allow one type of thought. These are personal choices not moral high ground. Now Obama is using the New Age paradigm for health care and cap and trade. It is his idea of Nirvana and somehow these bills have a spiritual uniting factor to them. The misnomer would be the forcing of it upon the people. The true premise of New Age is all actions create an action and that the Universe has a principled order to it. When you are bullying and hog tying your people into life styles or lack of choice, you have misunderstood the idea of being united. . Our generation hooked on to the New Age agenda with authors like Mary Anne Williamson and Deepak Chopra. They both have had some good things to say; however, the problem lies within the interpretation that we must all come to the same resolve. According to Obama and his sycophants, that resolve is Obama world. Dr. Deepak Chopra has made huge sums of money in this great country of ours through book deals and TV appearances. He has had no problem excepting the wealth a capitalist society offers. Yet the other day he wrote an article titled “Can we stop being a super power please? This makes no sense since this country and it’s freedoms and wealth buttered his bread. I guess it is OK for him to reap the riches of our country and enjoy its freedoms but now has decided we must become more like a 3rd world nation. Bono another celebrity is known for his activism for Africa. Although a noble cause, he did not do it alone. President Bush worked with him on his Aids project and helped quite a bit. Yet, I read in an article the other day how he dodge a hug with President Bush. He seemed to be bragging about his shunning. So, the moral high road is to help Africa but shun the President of the Unites States who helped you claim that goal. These two men tout themselves as above the fray. They see themselves as men of substance yet they are jokers just feeding their own personal agendas. This is hard for me to say because I am a huge U2 fan! They cow tow to their audience and there is nothing original about them. The substance is only for what they see as important not for the good of the whole. Obama works in this same vein. He has a personal agenda and it is not for the betterment of our country. It is for his glory and aspirations of what he thinks our country should be. He lacks substance and has no understanding of a constitution that represents its people. He is spoiled and an affront to our forefathers. If you read the biography of John Adams, you will see what a true hero looks like. He understood that in shaping America and serving her best, man had to remove his ego from the process. The above men mentioned are not fit to eat at our founders same table. Our substance is only in the words not in deeds or actions. We like the idea of creating our experiences but when you study the nuts and bolts of Metaphysics it becomes a very different animal. Freedom is what creates a better man and more evolved spirit. Dictatorship breaks man and devastates spirit. We let ourselves go a long time ago and now we are reaping what we have sown. Yes, Obama is responsible for the chaos and careless acts he is making but we are responsible for giving away our freedoms so easily. Although we all did not vote for Obama, a lot of us did. This is because we seek outside ourselves for provision. Hopefully this awakened call is all we need to get back to self. If not, we surely will perish. Publish Post Save NowSave as Draft

It seems the problem we have in America is this need for an idol.  Although both black and white communities have picked Obama as a top contender this last week it seemed to be Michael Jackson.  Of course, we heard about race and somehow Michael was more black then white.  He represented the black community bla bla bla.  When are we ever going to become Americans first?!  This argument is stale, old and I for one have had enough.  It was drilled into me by this society that I was not to see color and I have lived my life that way.  I know a lot of other people that have done the same.  To the black community I say it is time to let your color go.  We have much bigger fish to fry and as Americans we must tackle them together.  

I also found out in my 20’s that I am the steward of my destiny.  If I had personal problems and excess baggage, I would have to find the answers myself.  I have spent most of my adult life getting real about who I am and what my issues are.  America could use a come to Jesus meeting for sure.  Translation, look at your own back yard!  I am convicted in my beliefs because I know who I am.  There is no void to be filled because I filled it.   It did not seem to me that Michael Jackson nor President Obama have filled their own voids.  It does seem though that America looks to these men as idols.  No flesh and blood idol can be a savior. Why has America become so needy for one?

I say it is because we have lost self.  We have become lazy and are willing to accept less than.  The black community refuses to set aside color so every single issue has to include that conflict.  Obama refuses to let go of his agenda so we must watch the greatest country in the world be sold out.  The left refuses to let go of its vile hatred for this country and pursues militantly any one that does not go along with their vitrole.  The Fundamental Right clings to judgement even though Christ specifically said do not judge.  The white community tries so hard to be politically correct that we no longer know what we truly think or feel.   All of us have chosen idols to worship over sense of self and rational thought.  We have become an insane population. If you don’t believe me , just turn on the news.  
We must turn off the white noise and look within. We need to get back to basics and understand we are Americans first.  Each one of us is here for a reason and a purpose.  In America we have forgotten the fundamental premise that each individual is responsible for their outcome.  Instead we look to Presidents and Pop stars to fill our own void.  This pattern is worn and tired.   America take a good look do you really like what you see?
