Zombieland of the Soul

We are the Zombies of the New Apocalypse

     Yup, that is us.  It dawned on me this morning walking in to work that indeed our ego minds have made us zombies on this home we call Earth.  We could be just as easily been labeled as vampires.  We take perpetually and do not give.  We are attention whores and consuming concubines.  Its all about us making our worlds miniature, small defensive compounds that react to the slightest perceived threat.  We only leave our fetid compounds to consume more and more all the while our soul is rotting from fears, anger and anxiety.

     We rush to entertainment dropping a load of cash instead of spending our money on the sick, homeless and bereaved in our quest to fill a lifeless void.  What are thinking?  Well the answer is easy; me,me,me.  It's all about me.  But really it isn't all about me.  It is about us. We fail to educate our children as parents.  From our barren psyches we hover in our fears to protect them and ourselves when indeed God brought them and us here and will take them when their contract with him is up and no sooner.  David Hawkins MD PhD in is book says there are no accidents or "unplanned illnesses".  These are preplanned arrangements of the soul to learn lessons.  Others have contractually agreed to assist us in both helping perpetuate the act and aiding in the recovery for each souls benefit.

     Indeed we are in an apocalypse of our choice and actions or albeit non-actions. Instead of taking actions within ourselves to make things "better" we sit under the table of the master waiting for crumbs to fall.  Or worse we stride out, self centered demanding what is , we believe, our fair due. We have become victims of our own monkey minds.  Fearful of not having enough or enough of what the others have.  We search with vacant eyes only to consume the next great product that comes along whether it is a youtube video, new Taco Bell creation or movie.

     Now that we have seen ourselves in the mirror what is next?  Maybe the Taoists have the answer.  Lao Tzu says, "Do nothing and nothing gets left undone."  How is this possible?  Below the surface is the act of faith.  Trust is the operative world.  You did not bring yourself into this world and kicking and screaming you WILL be pulled back to the source. Our lives are not our own.  We are observers and then teachers of what we have observed and experienced.  It is our time to Be.  Be compassion, be love, be present.  Like Occam' s razor the simplest explanation is usually the most correct.  Our lot in life we choose.  No one chose it for us.  It is time to realize that.  The old adage to "Bloom where you are planted" in never truer.

Be a fragrant flower to others today and not the hungry ghost of Hades.
