How to be somebody in a world where everyone appears to be striving to be the same. This title rang in my head as I thought of us older generations living in this new world.
Life for us was so different compared to the fast paced life that the younger ones live today. Everyone is on their phones, AI, internet and technology based these days.
Reels, posts, mouths moving all showing their best sides. Headlines like, ‘ You can become the best version of you ‘, ‘ Reach your destiny’, ‘ Earn 6 dollar figures’, and on and on it goes.
What we are all trying to do is to find a new way in a system that basically failed us. We have not learnt how to relate to the new life emerging around us and within us.
We based our old reality on going to school, getting a good education, getting married, a good job, having children that would take care of you. A religious structure that almost guaranteed you a place beyond the pearly gates, if you followed the rules. A Good pension fund, retirement, and then you sat in the waiting lounge, enjoying your grandchildren. ‘ this is the dream we were sold. The package to heaven, paved in gold ! You had pretty much made it, if you followed this map.
There was not much focus on individuality, your unique gifts, going inward. Finding your true self, guides, angels, ancestors or even things like generational trauma, childhood trauma or any kind of emotions ever spoken about. It used to be, shove it down and suck it up !
I am noticing a whole generational gap that has to do some catching up work. Where the old system simply does not work in this new world we seem to be moving into. That is needing us to show up for ourselves.
This doesn’t mean we have lost our foundation. Not at all, but it’s more like learning to navigate your inner knowing in these times of change. People speak a different language nowadays and it’s easy to just say I can’t cope with the change. I would rather stay where I am.
Recently I was shot down on social media by a person I did not know, when I made the statement on a video of mine, ‘ We are God’, we are each made in the image of God ‘, not so, ? and if we were each functioning from that optimal state that would make us responsible for our actions, our thoughts our lives etc and we would be radiating that inner state.
It sometimes feels like we are genuinely living in different parallel universes. One still in the old structure and an entire group of people that refuse to change and then there is another paradigm of where people are genuinely discovering that parts of themselves are Godlike and we do have the ability to manifest and change even the weather ! 
– that will bring on another critic, I’m sure 
.
We only know what we know and what we don’t know, we don’t know !
These different worlds we may find ourselves living in, each brings us back to one source, no matter how bright you are, how many digits you can make at the end of the month or how Godlike you can become. No one is getting out of this life alive !
But we can leave this life being AWAKE ! Knowing that we are part of everything and we are part of a universe that loves us and is always working for us!
There is a natural Flow state that is always within and we are able to tap into that stillness.
How do we find this Wu – Wei, this balance between the two worlds ? If you are struggling to find this flow in your life and still battling to make the paradigm shift, like so many are, I invite you to watch my Capturing what People Don’t Talk About Series and join ‘Conversations with Marlene’
