What's the point? What can be done, that hasn't already been done, or will be done again? Are people going to make the world a 'better' place? Or will we make things 'worse' in the process of trying to make things better?
Perhaps people don't need to do anything this new year, except BE. And in being we can find love, which transforms all things.
As 2008 begins, how does it look to you? Has all the effort in previous years, spent 'to make things better', done the job? Does it look as if we can finally stop trying to change the world, and simply enjoy the peace and prosperity we've worked so hard to create?
The more we try to change 'the way things are', the more we find we've somehow gotten off track and created new problems.
Don't procrastinate and spend time feeling nostalgic for previous years, or try to reclaim an 'age' when people cared more...care more now! This moment. It's the only one that matters, and no matter how hard you try to 'make things better', so long as you live in a world that you believe is in need of repair, it will most certainly never be the place you want it to be.
It's impossible to find what you need, unless you let go of what you think you need and discover that everything, the way it is, is the way it should be. When you love all this IS, you will find the world IS that better place!
