WOKE – Not A Good Idea?

Woke - Not a Good Idea?

What is WOKE – Not a good idea?

Original Definition: “Being aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues, especially issues of racial and social justice.”  

How do we move forward NOW?

That meaning feels like a valuable intention for an evolved society and for the world itself.

Yet it has become a politically charged word! Could we approach this topic with an open mind to see it from a new perspective?

When the extremes from any view block a NEW view of possibilities, it’s time to find something we have in common and seek to build from that. It’s amazing when humanity experiences catastrophic disasters through mother nature we can and do come together. The inquiry is not what are your politics – it’s how can we help one another through survival.

Throughout history, humans have engaged in horrific violence, conflict, and warfare, often associated with religious motivations. Quite a paradox!

I approach the word WOKE – as my call to personal AWAKENING for greater compassion on multi-levels – for myself and for all around me. May I value historical truth which is now available! May I realize the importance of what I stand for and the energy and passion I bring to valuing my life and purpose. 

Our planet is experiencing significant conflicts in various areas, including religious beliefs, political views, ethnicity, race, and gender issues. This is a crucial moment where the issue is whether we can care enough about our survival to have genuine compassion for one another across the world.

Yes – we have a world that has been rooted in prejudice, violence, and the beliefs of those with privilege and others NOT. It’s a big challenge to heal, but I can start by healing my own life first. I redefine that word healing as NEW understanding, forgiveness, and self-love and regard that I pass on to all, without exception.

Acceptance

Acceptance is a vital word in the soul evolution of our lives. It does not mean resignation but being aware of: Change is the constant and aligning to that change is not giving up but being open to seeing things with new perspective and purpose.

The outcome of the election 2024 was not what I wanted to see, however, it is what I must open to observe with insight. I am not viewing those with differing views as my enemies. It is unfortunate that we have become so divided into extreme views that we believe building walls are more important than bridges.

In the awakenings that are occurring within me on a deeper level than ever I realize the true enemy is within. Self-condemnation. unforgiveness, the terrorist racist, and anger/rage stored within me is a vibrational energy that I contribute to the world daily. I am choosing to clear the intensity of those unconscious beliefs stored within my body and realize Charles is worth loving and so is every other being on this planet, without exception. We are dark and light, and only by seeing ourselves in the fullness of our being do we rise to contribute authentic healing energy for all.

Tara Talks: Radical Acceptance is a Prerequisite for Change

I choose to see humanity evolving – no matter what the appearance. I choose to believe that the ultimate reality is Love, and that miraculous things can emerge out of chaos. That has been true in my life journey. As I was willing to be the observer of my life and take new accountability for (not judgment of) my words, deeds, and actions, I do see things in new awareness. My sole purpose – Mind my own Becoming – do self-forgiveness and make amends wherever I can. At the root of all humanity is a quest for love, freedom to be, and the opportunity to express the gifts we can bring to one another.

Acceptance of the outcome of the election is realizing we are a house divided as a nation. I also have been in a house divided as to how I have seen myself. I can create new awareness through listening compassionately to others. It’s more important that I open to new insight than have the need to be right!

Acceptance is loving who I am with all my imperfection and celebrating building bridges that enable me to see we are all on this evolutionary journey as Spirit in human form – together!
