NEW DIRECTION

⚪️🔴🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣⚫️ NEW DIRECTION Ed. No. 106 - PLANET EARTH IS BLUE AND THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO

Lyrics from "SPACE ODDITY" by David Bowie (1969)

Our faith in the entire system

is starting to come under severe review by the society itself.

It just all looks to be no longer working.

And we are starting to wake up to this truth

most uncomfortably so.

Governments tie us in red tape.

The Technological Revolution confounds us with undisciplined accelerated change.

The Health sector mummifies us in bandages.

The Corporates are masters of a new age clever speak (same old BS only with upgraded packaging).

The Defence sector shows off plans for their big toys yet remain little boys. That money being spent on smothering the fear in us could be better allocated to the grossly dysfunctional areas of Health and Education.

Social Media creates a fantasy that keeps heads in the clouds while News Media amplifies information to draw attention for its own profit losing us between the headlines. Our entertainment industry doesn't seem able to come up with better stories but rather incessantly beats us over the head showcasing just how badly humans can treat each other. Monkeys see monkeys do.

And Community creates jaw dropping problems over a lack of accepted individual personal responsibility. I could go on with other examples but I hope the point has been made...

This world we have created is rotting on the vine yet we still want more and more of everything low hung like juicy full bosomed fruit.

We are eating emptiness reminiscent of David Bowie's Major Tom floating around looking for answers in the vacuum of outer space. Rather we should be embracing the need for a consciously grounded creative triggering event. i.e. Something to turn the tide of our own accelerating societal world decline. Or perhaps that event has already occurred with the chain reaction set in motion following Covid?

But Covid was hardly creative. More like ground clearing.

Major Tom needs to come down to earth.

It is our own inner space that wants and needs our attention. We are making a mess of our own future and yet we want to blame someone else for all of the self created confusion.

We need to find ourselves. Don’t laugh.

Like it or not that is the truth.

A little humility goes a long way.

But that rusted on pride does so get in the way.

Across the spectrum we all need to change direction.

It is YOU that needs to allow YOO (the deeper YOO) to make that happen. - Neville ☺︎
