We’re all creators...
If not of something great, of chaos by default.
Some choose to channel their energies comstructively, into art, business, and relationships - crafting legacies and leaving behind works for others to enjoy.
Others don’t choose at all - ending up squandering that same creative force in the perpetuation of neuroses, conflict, complaints, and resistance to growing beyond their past selves.
Some choose to create with clear intent - birthing works deliberately, exercising the discipline to direct their focus towards specific results.
Others delegate responsibility to a collection of excuses - degrading themselves to victims, creating storylines in which the world is a horrible, unjust place - failing to see that they are the ones creating that experience through their own perceptions, biases, and misuse of creative power.
We create peace - or we create disorder.
We allocate our energies constructively - or destructively.
Regardless of “the state of the world,” we appear as the catalyst - accepting it as it is, deeming ourselves powerless to change it, or being the cause of change through the author of our life script.
We can’t stop creating.
If not creating consciously, we create by default - and most often, without consciousness, not constructively.
We create the breach from history’s patterns. Or, we create the conditions to fuel the out-of-control fire of unconsciousness’ destructiveness.
We create the new path forward. Or, we create the rationalization sad to why the old one is the only we can bear to travel.
Maybe entropy is the order of the universe - so long as we fail to intervene and craft something different.
Should we not exercise the resolve to course-correct, it should be of no surprise destruction is the result. *It would be our creation - as the consequence of not having done more with the opportunity bestowed upon us to create something different.
There is no more pointing fingers at and blaming “elites,” politicians, corporations, religions, and all varieties of cultural programs. (Not without deluding ourselves and those we may attempt to thrust our beliefs upon).
We are the coders of the alternatives.
We are the creators of the future.
If the intertia of forces are carrying us to an undesired destination, it is on no one but us to learn the dynamics of the system and architect a new flow.
The world is our canvas. If it’s contents are not to our liking, it’s upon no one but us to paint a new picture.
Should we fail to seize that opportunity, then blame is on no one but ourselves.
Constructive creation from clear intention... or unconscious creation of chaos by default...
The choice is each of ours to make for ourselves...
