There is a voice that doesn’t use words, listen.

— Rumi.

This morning I woke up, and felt called to write a blog; but unlike the other 3 or more times I felt the urge to start a blog that same day, my mind was clear today with vision focused on something other than myself. I thought of starting a poetry blog in the past, stories about my personal life, and health and wellness but no ideas quite like this…

The sun was shining on the this wintery day on my way to the coffee shop, as though it was cheering me on with this calling. I want to create a digital space that will bring humanity together by observing what is being echoed in our existence towards Rising our Compassion; in our internal and external environment. When we all come together with compassion in our hearts we will have a new compass guiding us to lead forth a consciousness that will leave a legacy that will vibrate forever.

We live in broken systems, operating from archaic logic that runs our world and we have the abilities, talents, and resources to create communities not just with a voice, but with ACTION! We can talk philosophy, history, science, technology, spirituality and every great subject we can imagine that creates awareness, but it is nothing without ACTION!

Patterns keep us living in cycles, whether by choice or force and keep in on the merry-go-round until something breaks, which is typically when we make our biggest changes. In the face of disaster, collapse or death it is when we come together the most; but with complacency taking hold of our compassion we are in a state of serious awareness for our present and our future.

Are we so busy being connected that we are going through life disconnected to the greater reasons as to what are we accomplishing? I feel we are going so fast we have not stopped to ask these bigger questions about life in general.

None of us are going to get out of this life alive. We will take with us no possessions, no titles, nothing we earned or worked towards, we may not even get to take our own memories. If most of our life is aimed at pleasing our external bodies and outside world, what are we doing to work towards our inner self, or our soul? I believe we are a soul with a body rather than a body with a soul. It is all we have when we come, and it is all we will leave with when we die. Why place such small importance on our soul in this lifetime when it is our very driving force?

When we part from our souls in the living world, we are living a truly dead life, apart from ourself and when we disconnected within; how can we expect to be connected to anything in our external experience including being connected to others? It seems we are in a constant struggle of self vs. external self to survive with this world. Do we listen to our inner voice or our external voice, or perhaps we can’t distinguish them at all?

I have always been compelled to write, but my own inner voice was telling me to listen to the outer voice; the earthly and practical one and NOT write. I’ve reached a radical point in my life, where I do not want to live like the rat race of upper, middle and low class slavery. I do not wish to live for money alone, and obviously cannot live for purpose alone unless I want to perish.

Some of us, have worked with these systems to overcome them, and ourselves; but my question is what could we be doing with our energy had we not focused it on surviving and thriving but CREATING? That notion is so far outside of our understanding its laughable.

I used to think the world was becoming worse (thanks to media and news) but it is statistically becoming a better place to live with far less problems that once plagued our humanity. All these nuances that have become our “problems” are indeed worthy of our attention, which is why I feel called to write a blog!! If we aren’t helping, we are hurting and I want to help as much as I possibly can-not only by my voice, but to create a community where we can connect and take action, and inspire more voices that also feel called to connect and take action.

My goal for this blog space is to take the steps needed to not only share my voice, but one piece by one piece connect my vision which is for a podcast, youtube channel, and non-profit organizations geared towards helping causes with donated solutions that are filled with action-packed RISING COMPASSION!

Welcome readers to a long-lived dream that existed only in my mind, with the only thing holding me back was myself; but this is a new year and a new decade to build a legacy for our world.
