I want to work the ownership process around the sensitivity I feel to the injustice and evil in the world I’m bringing my kids up in.  This is something that comes up a lot for me and creates a lot of fear for the future.  In fact, I’ve always been highly sensitive to these things, even long before I had children, back when I was a child myself.  I blamed other boys and men, a lot.  They always seemed to be the ones responsible for the pain and suffering in the world.  I’ve always been curious about why I turned this blame inward onto myself and felt intense shame for things that other men did.  Why did I feel the need to make myself suffer for things I hadn’t done and would never think of doing?   What was the extent of the impact this had on me becoming the person I am today?  If I believe, as I do, that everything is working out for our highest good, what do I still have to fear?  Is my ego attached to the story I’ve built about being a victim of injustice, most of which I imagined?  My learning is that everyone and everything is connected.  Because of that, there is no way to avoid hardship and suffering that seems to be caused by other people.  If all our suffering has always been attracted by us, in service to aligning us with our path and our highest Self, then I can bring gratitude to my suffering and raise my kids with the understanding that all life, and life includes suffering, is for learning.  Doesn’t mean we passively accept or validate evil and suffering.  What can we do to help?  What is there for us to learn?  Our authentic self doesn’t suffer.  Therefore, how can we use this suffering to disconnect from ego and align with higher Self?  How can I use these negative world events and news stories to model creator consciousness so that my kids see themselves as the creators of their lives that they are?  I honor where I’m at in my journey, and where I’ve always been, as having always been perfectly orchestrated for my conscious evolution, just as I honor where others are as being in service to the highest good of them and all, even when it seems to be the complete and total opposite of that.
