There has been a huge global wake-up call and nowhere more so than for those who thought that they had "made it." Striving through school, college or university, worked hard to hold the ideal job buy the designer house,with wife and children. The bills have always been paid and the holidays regularly, exotic and the children have every electronic gadget that they desired.
Until the world became greedier and seedier as bankers and the fat cats at the top became beyond accountability.The sad fact is that even those of us who have had less affluent lives have still become so complacent that we thought we were safe and secure.
People are losing their jobs and highly paid careers are crumbling along with the economy. Changes and shifts ripple and ripple and continue to leave a wake behind. The ripple effect has never been so dynamic not since we witnessed the visual effects of the tsunami one Boxing Day, not so long ago.
Let's us now work together to raise the awareness of mankind. May this global shift allow us to work together to create the new consciousness so desperately required for humans to become truly self -responsible and to stop blaming each other for the mistakes that we have either allowed to happen or contributed towards.
Let's remember this winter that as the snowflake falls from the icy sky it will never be the same. Nothing remains the same. The snowflake melts and slips away to make icy water which feeds the little bulb of a snowdrop which pushes through the frozen soil to bring life and beauty to the winter world.
Pray that the vast changes that our planet is witnessing will allow a freshness and beauty to evolve in the human race. If everyone chooses to be responsible for re-creating families, relationships and communities based on the very best of human values then 2009 may be a year worthy of celebration.
I offer you my seasonal wishes and ask you to reflect on your own contribution to the new global consciousness.
Dorothy
