The answer is NO!!!
We all possess greatness within ourselves. We all face our own personal demons. Our aim in life is be better individuals. That greatness within ourselves can only be tapped into by "YOU" the individual. As we become better individuals, we are able to share that greatness with others. We are able to unite as ONE. However, many of us do not even unite with ourselves. We can be very upset with our current living situations, our health, our financial heartaches, a tragedy, a breakup, an unhealthy relationship, etc.
It is only up to us to make things right for ourselves. The world needs more positivity and less negativity. We can all make a difference by getting in tune with ourselves, and with that difference, we can make a change for the better. A better YOU, a better ME, a better US.
Recently, after listening to "SHAMAN", the latest single of a very talented and uprising recording artist by the name of Jaye Watts, there were many discussions that transpired.
Before we go any further, I was very curious as to what a SHAMAN is.
SHAMAN: a person regarded as having access to, and influence in, the world of good and evil spirits, especially among some peoples of northern Asia and North America. Typically such people enter a trance state during a ritual, and practice divination and healing.
A shaman is an intermediary between this world and the spirit world. They act on behalf of the community conducting ceremonial rituals, healing the people, and helping to guide others on the shamanic path. A shaman’s life belongs to the village and it is their responsibility to ensure the wellbeing of the family, the community and all of creation.
In this way the shaman helps to maintain balance and harmony on both a personal and planetary level.
Jaye Watts has nailed it with this song. This is a movement that i believe many people throughout the world will acknowledge. I salute this artist for creating a song in which will make a difference in this world. Each and every day our children are losing their lives to the acts of violence. Lack of education is the root of all violence. Today is a new day. Let us teach one another. Let us learn something new. Let us pass the message and live in a world of love and unity , and let us cease the hate.
As a man that has personally experienced police brutality and have been blessed to see today, i ask of everyone to do out of love. Open your hearts, open your eyes, open your hands, hug each other. Let us heal one another, let us take responsibility for our communities. It starts TODAY. It starts with YOU. #WeNeedAShaman
