A Nation of Light

Wake up, people. Look around you. The world's changing, and the way it was isn't coming back.

A new consciousness is rising and it's calling you to do your part.

Well, it's not exactly new. The coals have been glowing for a while now, the light hidden in enclaves around the world waiting for its time.

Now that time has come, and what was once an ember is now being fanned into a flame -- a flame of truth, of justice, and of the inner way that so many are discovering within them.

It has now spread so widely that it has called forth a new leader in America, the land of the free and home of the brave. Well, brave we better be, because he has asked us all to get off the sidelines and do our part to help restore our country.

Funny to hear that, because it's like an echo to me. I've been saying it to so many for so long now -- that we each have inside us a piece of a great puzzle that we must assemble if we are to build heaven on earth. Now we have a president who sees the only way out of the mess we're in is to start that process.

Can I hear an "amen?"

I hate to take the wind out of Obama's sails, because he's on the right track. Everyone's help is needed to right this ship, and it will be a lot harder if we don't all pull together.

But this isn't a start. It's been underway now a long time, and the process is accelerating. The work of the lightbearers is taking hold, and there's no putting the genie back in the bottle.

People don't realize it yet but there are many of us, thousands if not millions of points of light scattered across the land. Some have gathered together in small groups for mutual support or to test out their inspirations for new ideas in community. Most, though, are still in the process of awakening and finding their way.

Now it is time to connect the dots, to come together and facilitate communication and cooperative interaction among ourselves. This will not only serve us. It will provide an example to others, and give the newly-awakening a place of anchorage where they can find safe harbor from the storm. There they will not only find relief and refuge, but also a multitude of kindred souls to connect with and reinforce their efforts.
