Mother Nature

People wearing masks amid Covid 19

Our narcissism in the face of Nature’s fury has again brought us to our knees! As we watch those who have not realized that humility is a vital part of getting along fall prey to the pandemic, a great service is being offered.

Those who aren’t fans of our president are saying “Aha! You deserve it!” There is far more to learn here as we observe the consequences for wrong-mindedness. The next great challenge, global warming, is on the horizon. Universal Intelligence is “warming us up” for service to our Earth and all sentient beings.

The very Mother who has allowed our species to evolve is exacting a toll. If we are to survive we must be conscious, driven by a higher purpose. We must evolve to higher awareness as stewards of the fragile balance that holds Life to its heart.

On the world stage, we have a pandemic unifying all human beings. The virus is showing us oneness that cannot be denied. Political boundaries, artificial in the eyes of Mother Nature, do not stop its message of oneness. If we label it a Chinese virus, deny its virility, and pump up egos in arrogant displays of false invulnerability, it marches on unmoved.

In mindfulness, we are obligated to find the “gold within the shadow.” We must use every crumb along the path to lead us in compassion and truth. The pandemic is way beyond a crumb…It is a loaf! We dare not deny what we need to wake up. In a way, this is a compassionate Mother correcting her wayward children. 

Let us use this information to define ourselves as grateful and awakened. Let us stop the petty bickering, join hands and work toward a higher good.

Poor humans, the price we pay by denying truth.

Evolution…

By Rosanne Bostonian | January 16, 2021

As Life evolves, it is easy to think that human have evolved to our ultimate state. Not only is evolution continuing, it is happening at an accelerated pace. In fact, it feels dizzying at times. As humans “being,” (not a typo), the requirement for keeping balance is understanding that our humanity continues to evolve. Deepak…

The Golden Mean

By Rosanne Bostonian | December 16, 2020

As 2020 winds down (Lord have mercy), it is more and more apparent that no extreme, whether conservative or liberal, will serve this nation.  What will serve us all is knowing when to favor individual freedom and knowing when to pull in the reins of compliance and lead through crisis. We are creatures of community.…

What is a “Deal”?

By Rosanne Bostonian | November 21, 2020

Although the current political climate is disturbing and disruptive, it is still useful. Exposed is the long-hidden underbelly of ego and manipulation that used to be called “back room politics.” Now, the back room has transparent windows and we can see into the proverbial smoke-filled rooms where wheeling and dealing takes place. A “deal” in…

Bargains…

By Rosanne Bostonian | October 2, 2020

The marketing approach of many businesses involves touting bargains.  The notion of 25% to 50% off is designed to woo us into buying mode. We are supposed to take our stimulus money and buy, buy, buy! The problem is that the stuff they want us to buy, like new windows, landscaping, patio sets and new…

The Lessons of 2020

By Rosanne Bostonian | August 26, 2020

There is no doubt that our human minds would not select the challenges we are facing. The layer of unfamiliarity and suffering can either make us victims or open our eyes (20/20). Victimhood is disempowering. It says we are small and incapable and that world events are turning against us.  What if these magnified events…

No More Right Fighting!

By Rosanne Bostonian | August 15, 2020

High winds call for flexibility. The recent storm, Isiais, blew the heck out of trees. The most rigid trees lost branches or met their demise. As a result, “power was down.” This is a sign that holding a set position is not always the best strategy to weather hard times. Our current national posturing of…

“When Irish Eyes are Smiling”

By Rosanne Bostonian | July 29, 2020

Masked life requires more eye expression.  Are you finding that people are averting their gazes when you try to make eye contact? I am trying to practice eye smiling in the mirror.  I don’t have a drop of Irish blood in me, as far as I know, but I get an “A” for effort!  So…

The All or None Awareness

By Rosanne Bostonian | July 6, 2020

We are in a time when all of us will make it, or none of us will make it.  The days of one tribe against another for survival are ending in noisy, traumatic drama. There was a time when tribal warfare was the prevailing fact of the day.  If my tribe invaded the hunting ground,…

Act Two

By Rosanne Bostonian | June 18, 2020

When you have gone to the theater and an “act” is over, there is intermission.  Everyone gets out of their seats, stretches and moseys to the rest rooms and refreshments, discussing what they have just seen and heard.  These last three months have felt like a long intermission. There have been debates, discussions, disagreements and…

The Versatile Mask

By Rosanne Bostonian | June 9, 2020

The cortex of the human brain has no limits.  It will continue to bob and weave through wars, recessions and pandemics.  We are irrepressible thinkers, chewing on past, present and future in circuitous and sometimes foolish ways. As a devotee of foolishness as relief from bad news, I have been observing the versatility of face…
