There is a residual racism alive and well in the world.  This is not productive.  Racism is a dead-end road to nowhere.  When you are tempted to judge a person because they are not the same colour as you, know that you are prejudiced.  Prejudice is not an attractive quality.  You cannot know how it is to be a person of colour if you are not coloured.  Theirs’ has been an uphill battle all along, it has to be said.  They must be getting tired of defining themselves again and again, defending their right to exist in a world fearful of their difference.  Considering people of colour are by far the majority in this world, those that are not of colour should understand their place in the scheme of things.  They have an opinion – that is all.  We all have an opinion that we are free to exercise.  It is important to understand that we should not use our opinions to condemn the lives of other people.  How dare you wish harm to another human being?  That is not your place.  It is not your job to effect doom on another’s days.  If you have ideas of hurting other people, tidy up your head.

It is necessary to judge a person’s nature before you decide to interact with them.  You cannot do that in one minute.  How a person treats you over time tells you a lot about their character, a lot about yours.  If you are open to your world, you will know with whom you are best connected.  You will know, too, who you do not want near you.  You will feel it.  Children are particularly adept at sensing good, bad.  Trust their judgement.  Children will start profiling themselves racially at 5 years of age.  It is important, therefore, that before the age of 5 a child is exposed to other children of every colour.  When a child understands that it is one of a number of others – and through that understanding learns that ‘otherness’ is okay – then we have a situation where tolerance is being fostered.  You simply have to tolerate other people – we all share this space.  Practicing tolerance is good practice.

Racism makes this world weary.  It’s an energy-thief.  Its basis is fear, its power, hatred.  It is time to nullify the hatred.  Men need to be men now.  They need to take control of their dark sides, which  means harnessing their primal drives.  This darker energy needs containing – there are too many men visiting their darker sides upon the planet and turning our reality into a freak show.  A dark side is dark, it is not meant for the light.  It takes a strong man to turn and face the shadows.  Turning is always a slow process, but it is possible to do a full 360° if you exercise enough patience.  360° is where you want to be.  We need to turn and face the tsunami of hatred that is building, daily, for individuals, groups, a system that is failing its people.  By and large, the world of politics is a mess and it is failing at its own job.  Money is a bigger mess than politics.  Politics is about puppets in the today-world.  Puppets are bought and sold every day.  How effective any prime minister, any president, at exacting real change from the masses?  I suppose it depends how they ask for that change to come about.  Since most of them are lying about the truth in one way or another we find it increasingly difficult to find the energy to listen to any of their stories.  In this day and age it is ridiculous that every country is not run on a democratic basis.  And I have to ask – what are the Republicans doing for this planet, apart from marginalising people?  They need to open their minds and get with the programme called Progress.
