Amer – I - Can
by Leslie Carver
America was founded by individuals who were drawn to this land. What drew them?
They didn’t come of their own volition; they were drawn by an attraction. They were
drawn by a vision, a vision that sustained them through the forging of a nation. That
vision pulled and sustained them so they could overcome impossible odds. The people
who came here were deeply ingrained in slavery.
We talk about being free but we know very little about freedom. Freedom is the power
to be the individual, to hold to the conscience. Free is not freedom. Free is without
conscience, without charge. You look for others to gather together and you follow
opinion, not conscience. You submerge your individual knowing to somebody’s opinion.
To be free you lose the conscience. Freedom is neither slavery nor free, it is the
individual destiny to be, to do, to luvv and to lift.
The crises the world is facing have been brought about by not following the conscience
and the promotion of the slave system. We have built our financial, political, legal,
educational, and medical institutions on this corruption. We have called it the American
dream. Hard work leads to success and success leads to the American dream. But there
is no fulfillment in success because we have not followed the conscience. This upheaval
provides a global opportunity to rebuild our infrastructures with that connection to
conscience. We are looking at all elements of the American dream - real estate,
commerce, jobs, and education - falling apart. Perhaps it is because of the weakness of
their foundation. If we have built a war economy, industries that have supported the war
must fold, must collapse. The bees had Colony Collapse Disorder. We may follow that
pattern briefly so that the new may rise.
We are in a magical moment in time right now. The call to conscience has gone out for
all. Freedom is ringing through the world. Freedom is not granted, it must be embraced
on an individual basis every day. When we move into a group consciousness, we deny the
individuality which makes each one great. It’s not for everybody. It takes character and
courage to embrace freedom. All of us have a history of slavery and it has been the basis
of society for ages all over the planet. Now we are each being summoned to develop the
individuality we were born to express, to let freedom ring individually.
This is not a tragedy. When new building takes place, those in the old areas feel it is a
tragedy. They are displaced, removed from their housing. But if it leads to greater
conditions, it is an opportunity to step up. Whoever doesn’t step up will be playing catch-
up to those who are already embracing this wave of change. If the masters know war
and peace is proclaimed, if the slaves embrace the peace, the masters become retards.
All they do is shout and wave their hands about. They try to go back to the old
traditional war game.
Now is the time to embrace the vision and hold to conscience, individuality and freedom.
The road to the vision is paved with conscience, that voice that always leads us home, that
rudder that provides direction in the middle of a storm. Will it take courage? You bet.
Will it be easy? No way. Why do it? We must. If we hold to the past, we will weaken
ourselves even more. The past doesn’t provide the solutions for the now. What
worked for a population of 20 million won’t work for 300 million. The principle must be
amplified to cover this density of population. And it is time to embrace freedom now -
young, old, black, white, yellow, red, brown.
There is an enthusiasm that is re-energizing all who open to it. Hope is pervading hearts
around the globe. We don’t have the answers because we haven’t faced these problems
before. We must learn. We must open to the new. New industries can emerge, new
ideas can be developed, and new thought can be embraced. The new is coming through.
We have to open up and listen. Intuition’s time has come. Knowing is having a rebirth.
I can provides a doorway to the endless possibilities that are all around us when we open
to them. I can lifts the iron cap of suppression off the conscience so that the individual
sings again, luvvs again, breathes again and the voice comes forth. The voice announces
the victory. We are faced with great problems. Great problems give great opportunities
to solve them. It will take Spirit, luvv, truth, wisdom, patience, trust, courage, adventure,
peace and knowing you can win, to bring this about. We have done it before. It has
been done before against impossible odds. It will be done again and the possible will be
made clear. It is knowable and doable and luvvable. This comes in for the globe. Some
see it right away and rejoice. Others are more skeptical because they feel it is too much
to embrace. It’s too sudden and they didn’t have a hand in it. But it has come for all.
Change has come to America but change has also come to the planet. Change is here.
The more individuals that awaken to it, the more powerful it becomes. There will still be
skirmishes, wars, bickering but it will all be permeated by peace with greater and greater
power as individuals determine not to be subjected to slavery again. Even those who
have vowed to fortify slavery will be subject to change. They will find themselves done
unto by change. A victory is a victory. What we’re going through is not a calamity, it is a
victory. It won’t look like you think it should but it ain’t what it looks like, it is what it is.
When we call it what it is we become stronger.
Barack Obama came to office on Yes, we can. He seems poised to lead Amer-I-Cans
around the globe. Great leadership is required and that has always come from individuals,
individuals listening to conscience and demonstrating principle. We have a political
system that has rejected greatness for goodness and badness. It will take greatness from
all individuals that heed the call to move us forward into resolving these large issues.
Greatness calls forth the greatness in all. This call is not for one man, one nation, one
race, one religion. The call is for All. And as often happens when great challenges face us,
a confluence of factors must come together at a certain space and time. Let each one
answer the call and let freedom roar across the land.
This is not old
This is new
This is now
This is not the future
This is not the past
This is now.
In order to keep up with it you’ve got to be in the now.
