Beneath the action adventure sci-fi plot and some good special effects is a story that resonates with our world, as it exists now. In the real world we build walls, create “factions” propagating division, but all that facade is nothing more than trying to attain control. What is the real goal, what is at the finish line in all of that? Peace? No.

Peace, and dare I say harmony starts from within…and no amount of legal papers, politicians, army’s wars or money will ever ‘realize’ that peace for us.

When you strip all those things away, and stop trying to measure our successes and failures by society’s material standards, we will find that peace.

And if you think it can’t be that way, who told you that? And why?

Fear is a mother fucker. 

Sometimes it stops us from doing things that we really want to do. Sometime it stops us from being the person we want to be. In balance, a good healthy dose of fear can be helpful but when we allow it to run our lives, it can be crippling. 

It can come at anytime, in any situation and can make a person feel like they can’t do anything. It’s a bad feeling to have, especially when it sucks the energy from you but you want to accomplish so much. 

I am not a fan of fear. 

Even though I am not afraid of a lot of things, it’s feels as though I am afraid of the things that can make the most difference in my life. 

I wish that we could all realize the truth in the saying, “There’s nothing to fear, but fear itself.”

We share because it’s what has been taught for generations. Not only for the survival of ourselves, our families and our people, but because it has always been the right thing to do.  

We come from a civilization that was not built on power and the acquisition of wealth. We come from a civilization who did not cast away their relationship with the earth, or their responsibililites to keep the earth protected and who in turn are still thankful for the life that the earth provides. 

I am not deeply educated in industry or the roots of the society we live in now, and I do have to say that I can understand that for centuries before, despite the destruction that came with it, the other people have also been taught a particular way of life. A way of life that has been gone from their hearts for a really long time.

The only difference between us and the other people is based on what we believe.  And I don’t know which is harder-trying to de-program the lie from our minds, or, desperately hanging on to the idea that the lie will sustain us.
