What Are We Going To Do…
To Make This World A Better Place

Across the world and across the nations, we humans are going through a challenge of a world pandemic. You may have been required to stop and stay home in order to save lives. And in the midst of this, it is evident that the life you save may be your own or a loved one.

This disruption of life as we knew it has been difficult for everyone. The need for isolation is unnatural for all of us. Human beings are social creatures. Being alone, especially for long periods, is not what we value. This unprecedented period with the need to stay isolated and stay at home has interrupted and interfered with how things have always been.

That has been combined with a worldwide death toll that is staggering. It had caused a commercial shut down that before this happened would have been unimaginable. We are all shocked and amazed by the photos of New York’s Time Square virtually empty of cars and people. The Plazas of Italy shown on newsreels without the masses of people we have always seen are stunning. Everywhere we look in photographs from all around the world, we see a different world, a changing world.

And this pandemic is far from over. One by one, community by community governments are considering when commerce can open again and how we can return to business without sending this pandemic on another deadly rampage resulting in even more death and destruction than we have already seen.

The daily death tolls, country by country, state, or providence by state, city by city, has been staggering. The impact on the consciousness of people even if they are sheltered and are safe at home, is a strain. The fact that people are dying impacts people on an empathic level. That is something for which no one was prepared.

What We Do Affects One Another

This world event is bringing to the awareness of the people of the world truths that may have circulated in the mythos of consciousness but was never really believed. Concepts such as the unity of humanity have entered the collective consciousness as this virus has swept the world unlimited by borders or the ways we have divided our identities to separate us from one another.

The unprecedented shut down of the world’s economic engine has had some unexpected consequences. We are now aware that there is no place we can go to the world that is protected or safe from this Coronavirus. It brings to the attention of everyone, everywhere that this planet that we share is truly shared. We are one humanity, whether we like it or not.

This truth, this reality, in light of this world pandemic, has brought to consciousness, in a way that seems to be a call to the consciousness of humanity, to create a better world to find a better way to relate and interact with one another that makes the world work for everyone. If there is an inescapable lesson that this Coronavirus has taught the world, it is that what we do affects one another.

This lesson comes at a death toll that is continuing to rise daily that is entirely global and is not even close to being finished. The Coronavirus is a stern taskmaster, and what we as humans are learning is just the beginning.

As a student of life, and one who regularly considers the issues of consciousness and right human relationships; I find it interesting that this world pandemic, that has closed the doors of commerce, occurs at a time in human history where our careless disregard for this planet that we share is concurrent with warnings that if we do not change our ways, in perhaps dramatic ways or certainly in significant ways we are in danger of making the world uninhabitable.

The scientist has been giving us timelines to the destruction that is known to every government everywhere as humanity continues to operate in ways that are destructive to the environment. People across the planet observe that the climate is changing in dramatic ways. But greed and irresponsibility turn the gears of world commerce, and until this world pandemic of the Coronavirus, nothing has successfully slowed them, let along stopped them.

The clearing and cleaning of the air, from places as diverse as Los Angeles to Beijing, is noteworthy. Of course, the clearance of the air or the cleaning of polluted waters and oceans is only a brief respite. For our Mother Earth, we must take this world pause and learn from it. We must consider how to put the world commerce back together in a way that is better than it was before this world crisis.

The Coronavirus Pandemic is giving humanity and the planet a unique opportunity. It is teaching us valuable life lessons. It is pointing out and revealing fundamental unfairness and inequities that we as humanity, governments, and individuals must decide if we are going to change or let stand. These issues have come into our aggregate consciousness partially by the rising of our internal Soul awareness of what is right and what is wrong facilitated by the time and space and silence of contemplation.

Some of this new awareness, revelation, and consideration can be seen in the posts of social media. The worldwide communication network has in this time of an isolation crisis allowed humanity to consider global rights and wrongs in a way that, like the closing down of the wheels of much of world commerce, is unprecedented.

Allow Silence to Bring You Soul Awareness

When you stop and allow silence to bring to your awareness the wisdom of your Soul, your heart, and mind you expand to enable new insights and new possibilities. In response to the enforced silence of the busyness and noise of the world, people are, around the globe and certainly across social media pondering and expressing observations about what is right and what is wrong in the world.

From the very moment of birth, there is within each of us an archetypal and indelible sense of right and wrong. There is an inner arbiter of truth that we recognize as the still and silent voice of your Soul. Throughout time meditation and contemplation have been the portals of consciousness into that awareness. That we, as the people of the earth, the group of humanity as a whole are finding within this world moment thoughts about fairness and injustice in our collective consciousness is appropriate to this world moment.

Make This World A Better Place

When the Coronavirus slammed the brakes on the world as we knew it, forty-two million people, or 0.8 percent of the world’s population, have net worths in excess of $1 million. That group — roughly the global 1 percent — controls 44.8 percent of the world’s wealth. So it really is true that a pretty small number of people control nearly half the world’s wealth. (as of Jan 22, 2019, per Oxfam International.)

That is a fact that has been incorporated into “folk wisdom”. It has become common to refer to that as the difference between the 1% ers, vs. the 99%. That is the way the world has been. But I ask you, is that the way you want the world to be?

Is that what you believe is fair? Is that a demonstration of right action and right relationship between people? Does that resonate within your heart, and your mind and your Soul as you sit in the silence of this time of isolation and consider the re-establishing of society that needs to happen for the world economy to start running again?

We are being given an unprecedented opportunity to create a world that is better, a world that is different.

We know this. We post about it on social media. We create memes about it. We ask these questions.

I ask you what are we going to do to make this world a better place? Ultimately all governments draw their consent from the governed.

This was a central principle of the Declaration of Independence as written by Thomas Jefferson and revised and reaffirmed by the founding fathers of the United States of America. It is the basic principle of the Bill of Rights that are the enumerated rights of America. But more than being founding principles of the United States of America, they have entered the collective consciousness of the whole of humanity in the over 200 years the United States has existed.

People all around the world use that concept to create changes in their government. And, at this world moment of the Coronavirus crisis, it is this principle that will be used to transform the world that emerges to make this world a better world than it was when we, the people of planet earth, went home to save our lives.

I believe we are being given an unprecedented opportunity to save the planet and to transform society. I am asking you to consider how and what we need to change to create a better world.

I am asking you to take advantage of the time of enforced isolation to meditate, contemplate, and consider what that world would look like? What needs to change? What violates the wisdom of your Soul? What screams out to you as wrong and unfair. You are a citizen of this world. The wanton disregard of the planet affects you, your health, your safety, and the health and safety of your children and your grandchildren.

I recently led a group meditation considering these issues, which I may publish on YouTube to guide you in a mediation to ponder on and consider these questions.

You have the power and indeed the responsibility to consider these issues and then to send out to the world your insights, impressions, and revelations to enhance and empower transformation in the world.

The world will change from this Coronavirus crisis. Change in life is inevitable. Your engaging in the possibilities of change is empowering. I believe you were created as a co-creator with the Divine.

Namaste,

Genevieve
