1.3 - With a Finger Snap

~

Long story short: You're a walking miracle.

~

Who knows if a god created the universe in seven days, or if the universe somehow emerged from a finger snap? That's at least the science behind the Big Bang theory - and so a few years pass, the first stars and planets are formed. Fish crawl out of the seas; soon the first apes are all around the place and then, one day, one monkey decides to eat an unusual mushroom that has the peculiar yet really cool property of getting the lucky one familiar with the concept of consciousness. So, a consciousness-expanding mushroom. Crude as the matter itself is, some of the now enlightened fellows start to take advantage of the environment.

While monkeys still possessed a certain - let's say - reverence, suddenly they build shelters and there it goes, this reverence for higher powers! The high nosed monkey was born. He who ignored natural laws and would later bring forth things like McDonald's, racial segregation, and the Inquisition...

It wasn't too long ago that people were still breaking their backs toiling in fields... Nowadays, GPS-guided tractors till the soil as if it were the easiest thing in the world. Not even 100 years ago, emperors, kings, and - let's face it - EVERYONE used to worry for weeks waiting for news, where postmen and postwomen were actually going through countries they had to ride across.

And now, look around. Every child possesses more computing power than all of ancient times combined. Handheld devices are used for chatting, tweeting, and simultaneously connecting with all of humanity - global conference calls make it possible! And yet: In the 21st century, the world is facing challenging times.

No matter how someone chooses to see things or how much of a positive attitude they try to adopt: Among many people, there is still a lot of uncertainty about the future. And yes ~ even those who have actually taken the time to investigate such profound matters often see themselves as hopeless.

There walks a man in his mid-twenties and talks about THE REALIZATION of human history, sees the world suddenly with completely new eyes. And finally, the world makes sense again! I just want to share so many things with all of you guys~ ..But does it fail because of me, or because of them, or always somehow both of us? Some see themselves tested in their faith in God, but how should I test them in their trust if I myself want nothing else than to be closest to God? Some others, on the other hand, said they didn't want to hear anything about it and that one should have their own problems... Well, what can I say? Imagine what it would be like if the person in front of me recognized the same

~ Universe ~

in me that I now recognize in my fellow human beings? Just imagine what it would be like if we looked at the stars and no longer felt small and separate from everything, but as part of the whole, magnificent, belonging to the entire universe and shit!

But why do doubts arise? Either this (self-) realization has never been so all-encompassing and this knowledge is already deeply and firmly anchored somewhere within you and has therefore always been taken somewhat casually?

~ or was it...

...

"Why?" you ask me, "Why have people stopped wondering? Why do people accept their world as it is instead of questioning it? Why don't people want to understand, discover the true core? Why do they barricade themselves instead of asking questions, thinking? Why don't they even want to change perspective? Look at the world through different eyes? Or at least take a second look to discover what it means to actually LIVE?

Why, I ask you?"

Let me show you

But it will not be easy...
