I have been thinking about these latest Obama threads and all view points which have been shared. Many of the communications have been theoretical, philosophical and emotional.
Trying to convey what one really thinks and feels in writing, is difficult, many folks avoid this all together, because often what is conveyed is misconstrued by others.
I will tackle any idea with my thoughts in writing so in the end I imagine people are scratching their heads wondering what on earth I stand for. Ha!
We have tossed out racism, sexism, historical perspectives, theology – you name it. Perhaps this election and these times on earth --and in this nation-- call for these to be explored when considering support for a leader.
Personally, what I see happening and my take on why so many are enthralled by the sudden existence of Obama on the political scene is perhaps the return of hope for many disillusioned democrats and republicans (just PEOPLE) in America right now.
We are war weary, economically drained, struggling in jobs we don’t like for insurance benefits and money for groceries, we are scared of the unknowns like strange weather and out of control gas prices – & most of all, those of us who think a certain sort of liberal way and even those who don’t – are disappointed in our political leaders and feel lied to and let down by the ‘system’. We have so many fears - which we have been programmed to be afraid of, and it feels like everything is the same old thing politically, and just gets progressively worse.
So enters Senator Obama with his fresh, handsome face and amazing ability to inspire hope in our hearts. Well, hope in the hearts of many people- not talking for those who don’t get the same vibe. I’m addressing his burst of magnetism for the masses right now. I believe that many feel he is a refreshing ray of actual hope for a better future because if we don’t learn to change our perspective, as a nation, we are lost.
Now I’m not preaching or trying to persuade, I am simply trying to explain why I believe there is a Beatles like mania for Obama right now- and this is concerning to folks who are more grounded in another kind of perspective where the desire to reach out and grab hold of a miracle in a politician is not their cup of tea!
Obama is a man who has come along at a perfect time, historically, for the disillusioned citizens of America who are looking for a candidate like him. He offers many qualities that many of us could never see a hint of in Bush, and this is magic -making for thousands of people. Our country has been divided for a long time regarding the perspective of Bush and his leadership in this country. Some folks who don’t like Bush may not necessarily be looking for an Obama type, but many more are thrilled he has come along.
So it’s not that he is an antichrist in any literal sense, though maybe in an archetypical sense he IS fulfilling this awaited ‘prophesy’ for folks who are waiting for an antichrist- and it’s not that he is a healer like Jesus- though why on earth couldn’t he be? He could be an Indigo (my belief), or a light worker (many others have this belief)- no group of people corner the market on lightness of being lol. Souls often place themselves in positions where they can make big changes and political leaders are not excluded - (even screwballs may have started out a bright light with desire for good and then became corrupt - free will – I digress . . .)- though I believe light working souls most often place themselves in very humble places, including prisons and homeless shelters- in times of peril for large groups of people- a few will come in with a big job.
So my point is, as worrisome to many that he is admired so much, and treated like Mick Jagger or some think that he is a long lost Messiah, or fear he is the literal devil incarnate – my perception is that he’s a very interesting human soul in the spiritual shade of Indigo- one of hundreds and even thousands of Indigos and Crystals who have placed themselves in key transformative positions on this earth- to help us evolve. He has come along at a pivotal time, just the right time for those who have lost so much hope in our leaders and feel great disappointment in the American dream.
Our American soul as a whole has needed a shot of change, of historical transformation and in dances Obama. This strikes fear in the heart of folks who see him as fulfilling prophesies in the 'scary light' and joy in the heart of many who see him as fulfilling prophesies in the 'hopeful light' and hope in the hearts of us who see him as fulfilling prayers for spiritual evolution in this new age light . . . and so on.
He is a soul who has taken on the role of Obama and placed himself by divine intervention, for no reason whatsoever, by chance, or by satanic intervention . . . depending on perspectives- in a dramatic high profile position during a hugely important and scary period of our time in history . . . - he's making history . . .and is challenging people to see our world in a new way en mass- to help us evolve as a nation.
I can understand the way many are concerned about national security and his lack of experience in this area. What I see is that if a soul in a leadership position has the ability to transform those around him/her in loving ways which draw souls toward a higher purpose . . . . toward a more loving light and open minded way of perceiving things, this is enough.
For the transformation from war to peace is not forced as in the ways of Bush, but rather approached with a sense of understanding about the perspectives and views of another, even if there is sharp disagreement. To banish attack, ignore and punish causes resistance and feeds more hate- but to listen, discuss and maintain a peaceful example . . . and to look from loving and non judgmental eyes - this can heal. For the disillusioned Americans who are looking for this approach, Obama has been an answer to their prayers.
Mother Theresa would say that she would never protest war but only stand for peace. This is the Aikidu way . . . and from my perspective the Obama way. He was raised by a mother who gave him dolls from every nationality to play with and explore - a world community mindset. For some this strikes fear and disloyalty because it is not an American way. For others this is a healing way of tearing down racism and even sexism barriers, which plague our nation.
I believe it is possible to create a positive government with all the ideals of ‘by the people - for the people’, and to lead by spiritual laws of attraction – w/simple positive affirmative statements like’ yes we can!’ lol. I believe it is possible to listen to angry and raving mad Americans who are disillusioned by our government's leaders, and to take from these people the passion and love which is being communicated on a spiritual level and do great things with this essence . . . and still be patriotic. I represent many who believe this, too.
As for the unknowns about Obama, this is yet to be discussed and seen. I have only attempted to explore with my staggered writings here, the huge pull by Obama for some, and repulsion of Obama by others, who are concerned or likewise thrilled, by this new ‘Obama Movement’.
Light,
Fawn B :-)
