while I am taking a walk...

I can discover beauty and one of the things which are beautyful is art. Sometimes obvious, sometimes, hidden, sometimes in a way you wonder is it art or can this be just trash. While the world seems to be in chaos again, thought the world was always in some way in chaos or in motion, I cannot deny that I always look out what is on my way to like. So as I am in Sweden, as you may know, near my working place is a stonewall and it is a naturally one and on this wall artists have painted some more or lesson vissible faces and others.
They worked with the stone and the play of sun and shadow.
And here are the results and today it is just this.
Not much to read, it's a walk  at a galery outside. Kind of. Enjoy!

LOVE & LIGHT

Europa, my Europa

...where are you going to? Asking myself this, while sitting in the sun with a coffee, after the rain has gone.
After all the last days, you may feel far to powerless and with less hope for a brighter future, even more lookin' on the world news. Yes the news are something we need and a thing we know not to be all true, but also there is truth in them.
You may wonder how people can love a dictator. You may wonder how people can vote for someone who is not interessted in a god future for them. You may wonder how this all happend, thought you know and forgot to remember. There have been warnings. There have been signs, but you hoped to stay blind would avoid them to get bigger, badder and the so (part) of the world would not become mad.
Now you say you don't understand this world anymore, not even your little Europe.
It's like your friend has moved without telling you and the post office is informing you that he is not living there on that special place anymore. And you have waited oh so many times and now you can't anymore, but all is different. And you don't have an answer in your hand.
But did we.. do we not share the same time in our life? Do we not share the same mind of this world? Do we not have the same earth? We pray, we pray for so long and for each and every town and place, for those people affected of all the crimes.
Don't we go on the same way here on earth? Do we not search for the future?
For a tomorrow, for a better, for all?
We push, we wish, we take and give, we live but where has the love gone? We wonder. We fear.
We want to cry, we want to scream. How can this go on? So we pray for the world. Again and again.
Yes, a pray is making a wish, but we all know that this is all but enough.
We feel it is enough the way it is going, but some hide in the old ways, some are so afraid of future and new ways and some have learned to listen just to the loudest voice instead of the wisest.
We need more than a wish. We need acting and that is one of the god results with all the drama going on. People wake up. Going on the streets. Even though some only to try to push all back into the closet. They decided to stay blind, even thought this is impossible. But there out there are those who decided to open their eyes and try to help. Try to change and find a new way into future. Not sitting on a park beanch until someone comes to kiss them. They start to rethink.
Yes, even when it does not feel like this, because of the news, in the background is a change going on. Thought I believe it will be no easy change and I believe there will be more than just one crash on the way and it will be loud and of pain until we lost most of the things we keep to stay blind, but we never needed to survive. 
Not only history seems to repeat itself faster, even the wakening is going faster.
We see the lies, before the news is telling us. We have understood that politic is in it's system now nothing which can go on the way it does.
But like it seems we need the drama to make people start rethinking and also to understand, that if we want a change, we have to start with ourself, with what we teach and tell.
Even the most positive human has to remind himself once in a while that when the shadow is bigger than before and ever and war is on the way, that there is always a light somewhere and in front of your eyes the beauty is not to hide or deny.
So we just have to take it step by step, but be loud, be out and to be seen. The time for silence is over. The time for not knowing is over.
And yes, I know I could get mad just by thinking about how human can believe that another man is less worth than yourself and even more when they are religious, as there is the saying that we are all from Adam and Eve.
So breath, breath and look up. Focus on what we can do and lets do it for heavens sake!
Let love speak. Lets make the revolution of love get bigger, as this is one of the things to get into a better future, no matter how hard the fight.
Nothing is sure anymore and I believe the hate is getting stronger, but so will our love.
No place is safe anymore, but this is our chance to change!
Which you all the light and the love for this way, our way!

let me shine you a light!

To make my last post complete, I search a bit in my mind to find something positive for you. 

Not all is going bad. Actually more things became better. 

Poverty has lessen and more people reach clear water. We know more about the side effects of things we use and can help make them smaller or even avoid them. 

Medicine is getting better and we mix the western with the eastern versions. 

The awarness of what we can do and that change is only to come with your acting is becoming stronger. There are quite a lot of project going on to save the earth, the nature, to heal and save animals and to try to fix what we've damaged. 

We have actually less war going on, even thought those happening now are quite aggressive and much buidl on hate, blindness and propaganda. 

We are the generation who lives longer, everywhere on the world. 

We started to protect what our history has left us to remind us and to learn from it. 

Yes, I know lots of people still thing it is getting worse and when you read the news and hear the politic warnings, it is no wonder, but let's get and keep some facts straight from the actual situation. 

Irrational fear is growing and we need to lower it down again. We don't live in the end of time and just think about how we lough about the fact that TV was once unbelievable and called evil.

Humans tend to believe more negative about the things around them as they are. Even more nowadays and populist loves that. They can catch your eye and ear just by loveing your fear. 

There is a study and even when you don't like them at all, just listen... starting in Britain 2013 and becoming biger with the years and now contains 33 countries. People have been ask what they believe about things in their country. So let's take the part of where they talk about foreigners. Refugees and a like. In Britain they believed that 24% are coming from the outside, when in fact it is only 13%. In Sweden it was much the same. In Brasilien people believed that 25% are not born in their country when in fact the number is only 0,3%. 

More important becomes it when it is about the "muslim". The fear that they invade us. Well in Britain people believe they have 21%, when the real number is only 5%. This kind of answere came nearly everywhere the same and the actual number is simmilar low to the Brittish. 

Now when it is about crime, we tend to believe it became much more, much, much more, when in fact the whole numbers are going down, only in some areas of crime they went up, but not everywhere. Mostly in towns. 

So our reality we see is food for the far right and left and for the religious, for all those who want to have power over people and destroy democracy and free will. We will be more easy to bring to the point to like war and weapons. To hate and demand laws against the strangers. We believe we have to protect our property more and harder. 

But we are also capable to see that people can see, wake up and stand up. Orlando shows us and the Brexit, that we still have fire and hope, that we still care and love and have empathy and the will to fight for a better world as we not only want to sing -Imagine-. More and more people change their habbits and try to help and change the world for real and have understood that we did mistakes, but we can still do better. Our economy is better than politics will make us believe and we are less in need of the money as they believe. We can survive as we already did several times. Human race never needed a power who claims to know better as the common people and gets all the money, because little Joe is to dumb. But little Joe can be happy, lucky without the fucking money. Systems have change again and again. Why not now? It is always possible, as long we really want to. 

And see, people seem to care about the future. Even thought we still have no idea how it should be, it's the beginning. Nature is also stronger than we believed and can regenerate. Yes, we have quite a lot god to fight for. Let's keep that in mind. 

Love and Light

How will I know

Thought I wrote a several times about how press is having it's way and how it changed and what the problems are, we still face the situation that we all have to ask ourself while reading a newspaper or watching the news: How will I know this story is true? How do we know this demonstration they show is big, when we know it is a question of ancle to make a small crowed big and a big crowd small? How do we know this is important to our life what we hear, when we find on the internet the question of why this and that has not been shown. Is one more worth than another?
But let's be true, this world is full of information. When you want the people to know all of them you'll never reach the end of day. So you have to decide which will makes its way and the thing is, there is no neutral way to decide. It is simple impossible. So when a shooting has been happen, another will be there too and you have to decide what will make the prime time news. This is all about politics, which country we are living in and which system we are part of. Sadly the press is making lines not stories in most ways and this has always been part of the whole thing but became more the common thing now.
Why? Money! Less money, less journalist who got job at the press company and so more are freelancer and therefore have less time to research and are in need to sell. So that's why we lost many of the good stories and neutral sights.
But there is another thing. How do we learn to read a newspaper. Most of us don't and that is why they have so easy to sell, to rule and make people think in a certain way and that is why populist have easy to reach out. It is actually nowadays a paradox we live. We know much of what we read is not the way they write or even true to the actual point and what politic and moneymakes say is mostly beyond the truth. We know that but we love to believe the stories we read as we want to believe, the world is not all lies. Psychology is saying this since a couple of years, to explain the reason why we fall for the lies even when we see it, even when we should know it and why we decide to stay blind, even when you should not miss it, as things are obviouse. The Brexit is the youngest example of how stupid we have become and how less we believe the press and politics. You know they claim not having the information to know the truth, but it all was out there, they did not listen. Simple as that, people just don't listen anymore and the speeding up of lessen the concentration has start with private TV. Sience has last year shown with studies that the averrage concentration time is now max 8 minutes and we had once 12 for one news. Sounds not that much but as you know we can tell a lot in one minute. So the stories has to be told in a much shorter time and became more or less bad and less exactly and to the true point. You have no time anymore to show both sides of a thing.
This is another reason why it feels again, that the world is going down, thought there are so many good things going on and also getting stronger, while the hate and negative things also get clearer. But remember this is part of a process and we are far from the end. We have to focuse on the positive. But how do we know them?
Instinct. It's in yourself. How can we change to a better? Be smart and start with yourself and the people around you. And learn questioning what you read. Why do they just now talk about this and that, what is the reason, who is behind and what is going on in the same time? And yes, we have to take the time to search by ourself as many so called -true free press sides- are fake and spreading lies and hate and want to make people angry and unsure about others and at the end everything, because when you are upset, you are easy to lead.
I see this on Facebook. Those so called shooking news and question why no one is writing or talking about this or that drama, why it seems that press is only showing up when a special group is doing something bad and not the other one. The truth is often very simple. The story is false or it is just that--> We decide it by ourself and so the press is following the way and even more in many parts of this world the press has no way in the name of the readers. It goes the way of money. You know... No consequenses are on the way for them. So it is of course easy to use them.  And populist and extrem people and oranisation sure do.
Just lets take the fact that "muslim" are one week good, the next week bad and no one really takes a closer look and no one really comes to the point and say how it is. Clearly this does not sell, but you got upset and your friend to and for two different reason on the same object and as you both claim the press has shown the truth or facebook, you believe to be on the right line, but the truth is- both are and non is.
Oh for christ sake! How can this be?! Simple. We are humans, many times stupid, know far to less, got more information on our way than we can handle and have never really learned to search by ourself and then the things with wisdom, which is not we get by just saying hi. Wisdom is not information, it is the life that makes you know what could be right and wrong and what is important. We forgot actually to remember what is really important.
We focus on things we don't need. And we know that. Crazy, isn't it!

So how will I know? I just try to take more than one newspaper to get information and use my brain, search on the internet and read books and after all listen, listen to what people say and try to understand and listen to myself.
The rest is hope, as all we do hope for a better, no matter what the reason. If we learn and we always have to learn, we will know we are never perfect and never will be finished, but we will be able to open our focus and the way we see the things, our world.
So.. Let's put together our head with the body, as it is never functional if only one part rules. This is our seekness this time. The body is ignoring the mind and the other way 'round. Disconnected.
But things are much better than we hear and it is always the right time to start again.
Everything we need we have. So let's use it!

Love & Light
