Before You Build It Up, Tear It Down: A Call to Conscious Community

Before You Build It Up, Tear It Down: A Call to Conscious Community I was sitting still—thinking. Letting the mind wander across proverbs , ancient texts, and what's happening now. One idea kept circling back like a hawk over fresh prey: “Before something great can be built, it must first be broken down.” You’ll find echoes of this in the Tao Te Ching , in Proverbs , and in the ancestral wisdom of Africa . “If you want to kill a fool, give them a bag full of money.” That one hit me sideways the first time I heard it. It didn’t say “fight the fool” or “educate the fool”—nope. Just bless them with abundance they ain’t ready for, and the destruction will take care of itself. And I can’t help but see that playing out in real time—in our politics, in our people, in the nation. Collapse as a Setup, Not a Setback Look, I don't usually date my writings, but let’s keep it real—it’s early November, post-election season, and a whole lot is shifting. Layoffs coming, benefit...

Watching my new daughter attempt to figure out the basics is a wonderful experience. As I was watching her I began to realize that when we lose the sense of 'newness' of life. As we get older we begin to believe that we have arrived and cut ourselves off from the power that has helped humans advance to the point we are now. When we begin to believe that we have learned all their is to know we limit ourselves. Watching my baby reminds me of the wonder that is still out there.

We begin this life with such an interest in everything around us. Life is a big puzzle that we are trying to figure out. This puzzle is full of mystery and there in lies the power. when we lose the sense of amazement and trade it for the false comfort of thinking we know we cut ourselves off from the true power of life. This power flows from the mystery. By us embracing this mystery and walking with it in our life we unleash its power into our very existence. The universe is a big place, and just in this small world we live in, their is something that we can learn about everyday. Tapping into that wonder that wonder that we had as a child.

Why is mystery so powerful? Because it reminds us of the infinite power that lies in the universe and it also speaks to the unlimited potential that lies in us. We were formed in mystery, we grew in the womb of mystery, and boldly with the help of our mothers pushed our way into mysterious world. This mystery is what life flows out of and back into. Our very life force (axme) flows and works in mystery. When we act as if we know everything we cut ourselves off from this gift. When we lose the amazement, and wonder in life we cancel out our access to this power.

So get your wonder back. Find something amazing in your day. Embrace the mystery of life and truly live!!!
