Spidey’s Serene Sunday – Part 77

 “The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.”  Albert Einstein 

Is this not something we surely need to tackle?

What truth.

We, as humans, have evolved and developed, and as we have grown and changed, so has the world around us. From the foods we grow and eat, to the way we dress, from the way we move, to the way we communicate. 

Development has also coloured our thinking, conditioned us to feel certain ways about particular races/religions/ animals/foods.

If we truly want to be able to view a future for our children, that doesn’t hold a sense of dread, a future where we feel excitement at what it may hold for them, then somehow, we need to all change our thinking. 

Open mindedness, freedom of though, belief and speech, letting go of stereotypes.

When something bad happens, the punishment needs to punish the doers, not the rest of the community loosely connected to them by colour or faith.

We need to not be afraid to hold a hand out to help others in need. 

I love this wave of RAoKs (Random Acts of Kindness).

But why is it random? 

Why can’t it just be part of our nature?

Why are we so fixated on our looks and size? 

There weren’t scales thousands of years ago. It’s what we see around us that subconsciously tells us what is right and what is wrong, what is hot and what is not. Because society and the media told us so.

Take time to ponder. Try and see which part of your thinking could do with a refresh…

Have a wonderful Sunday Peeps!

    Wonderful quote! One of my favorite statements! Every change starts with the man in the mirror. We cannot expect that something changes without changing something!

    We need more kindness, openness, and understanding of other cultures. I don’t rely on the media at all. I want to whole truth not watered down
