I can share a story ... maybe several... but truthfully, I don't have to desire to do so right now. I am drawn to what enables emergence ... and spell check suggested emergency as I typed... an that sums up the scenario for me, plus adding heart connection, desire to or feeling compelled to impact the whole while holding safe, creative emergence space for the whole to emerge into something new from the heart of center. My! What spiraling of words that are flowing at the moment.
Maybe it is because I am so tired tonight after 2 days of traveling around the northern part of Sri Lanka, meeting farmers, kids and trying to understand why my friends think that the north is in so much worse shape than the south. What, you may ask, does this have to do with emergence?
Well, for me, a lot at the moment. I realized that there an almost competitiveness in Sri Lanka about who has it worse. Is poverty in the north worse than poverty in the south? Are we suffering more than they are? Aren't you outraged about how our lives are? I have been listening to questions formed by a people not long out of war and living in a seemingly decaying economy.
Yet, it was amazing spending time with these friends because Have so much love for them. At the same time, I found myself, responding with: "no" rather than feeling compelled to act. This is was interesting for me... and last night, I stayed awake wondering why. I realized in the comparisons there was no synergy, no forward movement from love, only a sense of moving away from. I showed pictures of some of the places we have donated food in the south (clearly showing greater poverty than in the north--well, not really clearly showing greater poverty, but showing poverty... poverty just like in the north... What emerged from this is an opening for my friends, my activist friends, to consider visiting the south... an opening... a moving away from the being right, the worst, in the most need to opening to a sharing of knowledge, methods, means and maybe an unseen inner shift to healing and opening to co-creating.
I don't think I am answering the questions above. Nor do I feel that I can put into words what the last two days have been like, yet.
It is just a feeling of something new is emerging... shaking up the status quo... what will emerge I don't know. I just know that with love we feel for each other... what ever emerges out of the synergy within the creative forces from our awarenesses, it will m=emerge with a higher vibration and a new story.
