Plane of Higher Consciousness

Time is running out....

visitors have warned us,
we must realize a common vision-

the destroyer comet is near once more,
our future depends on peace and harmony,
the old ways of greed and war must end-

our inner spirits know the truth,
all must unite in this common goal-

artistic harmony, and the pursuit of peace
and love will bring the strength needed,
when the time comes for us to join
advanced civilizations in the universe-

our current systems of greed, corruption
and destruction will not be tolerated among
cultures far more advanced than ours-

if we are to survive, the spiritual qualities
earth visitors most admire in us, must be
realized-

each of us must vow to live.... in a plane
of higher consciousness-

will you make that vow with me?

Very enlightened perspective, Jimbo! Yes, I will be happy to make that vow. It is something to which we can and should all aspire if we are to survive and rise above "our current systems of greed, corruption and destruction." We're on the same page, my friend. Love, Carolyn (Have company but made a quick visit and found this gem!)

Hello James,Yes I will make the vow with you, smile. You're a free spirit that's good. Outstanding write! Did you read my "Universal Life A Intriguing Thought" We're on the same wave length today my friend, smile. It's so good to see other's like you writing about this. It plants a powerful seed. Thanks for sharing, even if we're in the minority.....Someday that'll change just wish we could live long enough to see it for ourselves. Love Light Patty
