A short Story about One Peoples Public Trust.
OPPT is a mind blower, an eye popper, a heart pumper and a can opener
for the consciousness of humanity. If one believes in the system and is
too ragged from hardship
It is a difficult concept to get a hold of.
You have to be prepared to jump. Imagine two cliffs with a great chasm
between them, you know the distance between the cliffs is not that far
but the chasm is 80feet down. You know you can jump it but what if you
slip?
Your side of the cliff is rife with oppression and rules
and loopholes for the wealthy, and your friends and family are there. On
the other side of the cliff a world of untold possibilities awaits
where love and understanding and compassion abounds. A place where
people get together to be creative, to realize the purpose and potential
of their lives and the very reason that they are here on Earth in the
first place.
Other excited people await you, to invite you to
join this new way of being on the planet. They have access to
technologies hitherto unbeknownst to “the walking around people”. They
are ready to play and share joyfully with you.
Meanwhile on old
ground, people are still living in the Zombie Apocalypse, blindly
fighting wars on behalf of corporations enduring suffering and maiming
their bodies and psyches. They feel good about being a good citizen and
paying their taxes on time. They do not question for one moment that
they are slaves to a ruthless, insane system, for they are happy to have
a job at least.
A few people take that great leap across the
chasm, from 2012 to 2013 while the planets align after a 26000-year
cycle, while the societies of the world, as we know it, crumbles
and billions of tired and hungry masses clamor at the gates of
governments gone rogue and delirious with power over their cash crop.
The people who have jumped get together to build a bridge that their families might cross the great divide to join them.
The RSVPs start coming in, “invitation declined”. “The world you want
is a dream, people are greedy, it will never work, I am staying here, I
am deeply attached to my fear that keeps me running and busy each day, I
would not know what to do over there where there is abundance and joy
and people live in service to others. My service-to-self life is all I
know, my house, my kids, my country, my car, my religion, my job, would
all be threatened.”
“They are threatened now, look around you,
what do you see? Can you not see that your very physical body is being
assaulted from the sky, the water you drink and the so-called food that
is made available to you? Do you not see that your children are
absconded to deteriorating schools that are nothing more than
brainwashing machines? Do you not know that everything that you register
in your name belongs to the Crown, that your very birth has been made
an element of commerce to serve the trillionaires of this planet who
care not a pigs eye for you and your family? That your church at this
very moment sinks into a pit of such heinous crimes as you could not
even imagine?
And word began to spread, at first in hushed
whispers about a place where no hierarchy existed, where no middleman
stood at the gates to pickpocket you on your way in. Where action arose
from the hearts of humans and not from a scheming left-brain. A place
where all needs are met and people looked after each other because
abundance was now all around them and they had shed fear like an
unwanted snake skin revealing the potential of their souls purpose and
play.
They had toys too, that adults could play with endlessly
because their creative juices were flowing and they had never before
had access to such things as free energy. Their environment was clean
and their bodies were nourished with earth’s bounty as opposed to
synthetics. These people grew strong and healthy and the whites of their
eyes were clear and loving.
In trepidation, one by one the
people who had been mired in the mud of slavery loosed their chains,
began to unshackle themselves, tore themselves from rigidity and made
their way over the bridge of non-compliance into the place of sanity,
freedom and love and there was not one among them that regretted their
journey to this place of the heart and creativity. Tethered no more they
worked together to create the lives that had hitherto been only a far
off dream and with much fortitude they pressed forward until the old way
of life was but a distant memory and the basis for horror stories told
around the fire pit that scared the children half to death upon hearing
what had once been considered a “normal” way of being, before there was a
One People to Trust.
