Has the universe shaken to awaken us?
Whether you are housebound or not, I believe all of the concern over COVID-19 is a bunch of hooey, and one thing seems undeniable: Our world-wide society is changing.
The measures being taken are staggering. Entire communities have been steadily shutting down. Fear and recrimination are building walls. People are hording and hiding like some sort of apocalypse is happening.
Perhaps it is. Is Pestilence riding?
It is in our human nature that wants to lay blame. Someone or something has to be responsible for the things that happen. Everything can’t possibly be random. There is as much a chance that the universe is organized chaos as there is the possibility that it is under some form of intelligent control.
It doesn’t exactly matter, whether the Universe lives and breaths arbitrarily or with Purpose, we can utilize what happens for either Good or Bad
Why do plagues kill thousands? Why do dictators rise up and subjugate the weak? Why do children starve? Why are the innocent exploited and brutalized? Is it because God is unloving and cruel? Or is it an opportunity for us? A chance to choose love instead of fear? A possibility for us to grow and learn to be kinder, more generous, less self-serving?
Has the Universe shaking us to try to waken us from our apathy?
