Terrorism of the Mind

After all of these discussions about where our industrialized system went wrong and how the corporate giants and government came to rule all of our lives, why don’t more people get out of this system? Why aren’t more people leaving this endless rat race? Why aren’t more people living fruitful lives? Well, it is fear. Fear of losing your job, fear of losing money, fear of not being able to take care of yourself, fear of having to actually provide for yourself.


Don’t buy into the Fear

Why do we deliver babies in the hospital? People have been giving birth to babies, well, since mankind began. We have outsourced our power, our energy because we fear that the baby may not be healthy, we fear that we may not know what to do.

Why do we eat food from grocery stores and restaurants instead of growing and cooking it ourselves? We fear we might catch some disease from some animals, or that we might not have enough food if we do it ourselves. Then we fear that the grocery stores might run out of food and if there is any kind of emergency because we have never learned to feed ourselves…the most basic things, we fear.

Why do we go to work for someone else every day? Because we have bought that we have to have a job in order to live. Someone must pay me wages so I can pay my mortgage (to some huge corporation) and pay for my groceries (to some huge corporation), and my entertainment (to some corporation) in order to try and escape from this crazy race we’ve made. We are then afraid to speak our minds at work, we are afraid to confront authority, we are afraid to question the status quo.

And what is another word for fear? Terror. We live in a time where terrorism of the mind reigns supreme. We should worry about the media sensationalized “terrorists” much less than the terrorists that currently run our country and therefore our lives. We live in a construct of terrorism. We live in the Matrix, but instead of harvesting our brain waves, they harvest our life energy in the form of money, that they tell us we can’t live without.

Well, I say again, turn it around. Challenge the status quo. Challenge authority. Be bold. Take risks. And LEAVE! Leave the trap. Get out, as fast as you can before your mind becomes too accustomed to not thinking for yourself. And do it quickly before it is completely illegal and socially unacceptable to have your own babies your own way, grow and raise your own food, or bring your own ideas to life instead of working for someone else’s.

I read a great quote from a cup of tea at home the other day: “The First and Greatest Commandment: DON’T LET THEM SCARE YOU!” You are powerful, you are full of creativity, you do not need “THEM”. Fear is the opposite of abundance and creativity and of being ok when you make a mistake. Letting go of the captivity of fear, or what we call “reality” may be difficult, but you will – never -be – the – same- again. And you will free your mind.
