Reality-making

A slogan: “here’s wishing you the best future” … that should be our. This could be our reason for being, simply to go around wishing this! What we do today sets the example of how things will be done in the future. These are fruits for the future.
It would be absurd to include in our envisioned bigger picture anything of destruction, war or hurting, leave those arts to Mother nature, eh? Humans are not potentially absurd beings. That is not who we are (although you’d never believe it sometimes, looking at the absurdity of the people newspapers thrive on). Humans may have many faults but not that one. Our brains are advanced enough to avoid absurdity, surely?
In everything we do, especially important things, we’re either look like ghosts and gods, but it’s worth considering nonetheless ... that we are all, each of us, engaged in the act of ‘creating our own reality’. Now if this is so, then it looks likely that we can grow it like a carrot - reality. We have the sophistication and intelligence to paint the picture of the future we want, which is reality but not quite of the moment. And surely that could include almost anything, minus the ‘going-around-hurting’ bit). The hurting is illogical and only dabbled in by people who are particularly unwell. In Europe we had a male of the species, in the 1930s, going through a particular illness that involved causing mayhem. If only someone had spotted his pathology in time. So, what I’m suggesting is that we are in charge of our own reality. And it’s that which drives everything, from corn flakes at breakfast to believing that I could rule the world or go to sleep when my head touches the pillow.
I think the phrase is, ‘we create our own reality, absolutely’. Does it sound unrealistic?
Whether it is or not is up to each of us to find out for our self. But if we do, and if we create a universal ‘bigger picture’ in our mind, then it occurs, not only privately but universally.
Anyway, anyway, I want to see a world without hurting, particularly hurting animals. Ghastly grim, hell holes exist in our world and people who are advocating for animals want to see them a ‘thing of the past’. Could this ‘bigger picture’ be a fairly decent description of a no-damage world? Perhaps in its extreme form, yes, almost weird, but a reality only exist because we keep them there. Perceptional, attiduninal alterations could be made overnight.
In a ‘moving-towards sort of way’, we leave behind the dark side of ourselves and take up a somewhat lighter being. That very fascinating process is reality-making. Sounds a bit fancy in 2011 but I imagine it will be served up as something like ‘creating reality’, like today when we move towards becoming vegan ... and towards being more non-violent. What a great start that would be for the human race! It’s pleasant to think we’re developing our own ‘building’ instinct. And it’s likely we can all do it at more or less the drop of a hat.
