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.

Who to Trust?

By Rosanne Bostonian | May 18, 2020

I do not know who to trust regarding politics, pandemics and general pandemonium.   I am so tired of trying to figure it all out that I am diving for the remote when I see President Trump, Dr. Fauci and any of a host of opinionated pontificators. The truth may be “No One Knows.”  It would…

Agnosia

By Rosanne Bostonian | May 15, 2020

There is a neurological term known as agnosia.  It refers to the inability to recognize or know.  In the “Day of the Mask,” the omission of nose and mouth makes for a bit of a challenge in (a) recognizing someone you know strictly by their eyes,  (b) putting non-verbal cues to the inaudible, muffled voice…

Intermission

By Rosanne Bostonian | April 28, 2020

Now, donning my mask with the stretched ear holders and planting it under my glasses for stability, I notice that my exhalations filter north and cloud my vision. I also notice that people cheat and leave their noses out of the mask. These are the same people who cheat on their spouses and probably on…

Toilet Paper v. Tissues and Paper Towels

By Rosanne Bostonian | March 23, 2020

Well, we’re all in the middle of a sudden “change of times.”  I confess I paid $15 dollars for one of two remaining packages of toilet paper at the local Kings market.  The limit was two packages, but I couldn’t remove the last package and leave someone’s backside bereft. I then noticed that the tissue…

President Shmesident

By Rosanne Bostonian | March 4, 2020

I know everyone has different opinions about Mr. Trump, the array of Democratic candidates and the relentless process of electing a President and Congress in 2020.  The irony of “20/20” isn’t lost on me, since our partisan politics demonstrates the narrowest of vision.  “Me, me, my, me and (if you’ve forgotten) ME!  The facts of…

The Shelf Life of Culture

By Rosanne Bostonian | February 14, 2020

Every social order seems to go through a process as if it’s a living being.  There is the birth, the life and ultimately the death. New society is born of conflict with pre-existing ways that have caused separation and rebellion.  Our country was born in the sense of marginalization and unfairness by England.  “Give me…

Adjusting to Rapid Change

By Rosanne Bostonian | January 17, 2020

How do you keep up? We all like to “know that we know!” When change is happening rapidly, we confront what we don’t know on a daily basis. This means accepting the “I Don’t Know Zone” as a part of daily living and accommodating to the learning necessary to move with the times. For me,…

Bias Reporting

By Rosanne Bostonian | December 17, 2019

Subjective Truth Since most of us operate under the rule of “confirmational bias,” i.e., selective confirmation for what we already believe, the notion of objectivity in the press has become a relic of the past. The competition for viewership, listenership and readership has polarized the media into warring camps. I wonder if the journalism schools…
