Infinite love

Every single human on this planet has INFINITE love in their hearts. That means that if there were a way for you to meet and connect with every person on this earth you could love each and every one of them and STILL not run out of love. There's are 7.4 billion human hearts in this world, all capable of unimaginably beautiful, healing LOVE. Incredible! And love is a power like no other. It's opposition is fear, and although fear is an intense, powerful emotion, it is only an emotion. Love is more than emotion, it can heal in ways that no emotion can. Love can solve all this worlds problems IF (1) we learn to fully love ourselves, our emotions, our mistakes, and our own unique journeys through this life and (2) if we believe in the power of love and we trust that each one of has this infinite, powerful love within us. 

It breaks my heart that folks condemn unique and different things simply out of fear. There are 7.4 BILLION people on this planet, how absolutely boring would it if we were all the same?! The strength of the human race not only lies in our intelligence and ability to create love, but in our differences. No matter how well you know someone, you will never know their perspective, the depth of their soul. And it is each of our own unique perspectives that adds something special to this world. We advance in science, art, and so much more because of each persons unique perprective and journey through life that had led them to that perspective. Even the people that are consumed by fear have something to give this world: we can see pieces of ourselves in their reflection. If we look deep, we can see where love was consumed and replaced by fear. 

Just as much as we are different, we are the same. Every person on this planet knows fear, sadness, grief, shame, love, anger, guilt, and all the other emotions. Denying yourself or another person these feelings is denying your human nature. We are all designed to know these feelings because we are social creatures, and it is our feelings that cause us to work together and grow as a society. These emotions are nothing more than signals, flashing lights, guiding us through life. They always have something to show us, to help us grow. 

Many of us have spent our whole lives blocking out these emotions, out of the fear of their power. But the truth is that they don't have any power. You are so much more than your emotions, so much more than this life. If you want to heal and grow you MUST realize that your emotions cannot truly hurt you. They only strive to help you. You must accept the entirety of them, not push them away. Especially the painful ones, they have the most to teach us. The Buddha says that Life is Suffering, and he is right. Suffering is our inner pain, our emotions, and how we allow them to torment us. We only need to recognize this pain within us a tool to reach enlightenment and we will be free of it.

Politics! Here's my schpeel:


You are wasting you vote if you vote for either Hillary or Trump. The presidential "race" has been decided and rigged since day 1. Trump is chosen as Hillary's opponent to say outlandish, sexist, obscene, racist things to fire up the liberals and scare them into voting for Hillary, not to mention distracting us from all kinds of horrible stuff the elite are sneaking by us. And Hillary is chosen to be the first women president so the real people in power can get away with even more horrible stuff, under the guise of equality. The actual people in power are behind the scenes, these two are just puppets. 

The only thing we can do is support an independent that we actually believe in. I did my research and will be voting for Jill Stein. Do I think she will actually win? Of course not. But I will vote her for because I refuse to vote for someone I don't believe in. And also because if enough people do the same, the Green Party and other independents will come out of this election bigger than ever before. So that maybe NEXT election time when the choice is again between a douche and turd sandwich, people will see that there actually IS a third option. It's about gaining headway against the two party system, a little more with each election. 

So Hillary will win, and probably do some horrible stuff, but we as American people will survive. We will stay strong and keep fighting for what is right. It's never futile to fight for love and equality, because love will win in the end, even if it takes a while. 

Stick to what's important to you, whatever that is. Never settle.
