… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

A Graying President Takes Sides With ‘Wise’ Elderly

Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono played the age card when he addressed an event convened to celebrate National Elderly Day on Wednesday.

“Having gray hair like myself means I am an elderly person,” Yudhoyono said to chuckles from the audience gathered to mark Hari Lanjut Usia.

As further evidence for his claim that he could be counted among the nation’s senior citizens, Yudhoyono said that this September he would be 61.

“My wife will join in two years from now,” he said to continued laughter.

The president said that as a person advanced in years they became wiser.

“That is what expected by our children and grandchildren,” he said.

Confirming his argument, he quoted several sayings about old people.

To further bolster his argument, Yudhoyono said there were a number of saying regarding the elderly that were used in daily conversations, “such as the whiter someone’s hair is, the wiser he is.”

“The other saying is that ‘I have been young like you, but you never been old like me.”

Yudhoyono, who demanded a greater state budget allocation for the elderly, said that government should provide aid and protection to senior citizens to allow them to enjoy better lives in their twilight years.

“One of the characteristics of a good society is ... respecting senior citizens,” he said. “Civilized nations respect old people, our previous leaders.”
