DELUSION OF GRANDEUR

During my waking up phase [still waking up to some degree] there were some days where I just felt like crawling under a rock and hiding from the world. With increasing awareness comes increasing knowledge, sometimes it's unavoidable when everywhere you turn someone or something is reminding you that all is not well in this world, the mainstream media is the main culprit here. A close friend of mine has been following the republican debates here in the U.S. for well over a month, for the sake of sheer entertainment only, I myself have caught a brief glimpse of this ''wannabe reality TV circus debate'' for the next presidency and felt compelled to write my own take on all things politics and deliberate creation. A circus these debates are indeed, and while I've hung up voting for anybody or anything well over a decade now, it was just recently [a few years ago] that I've decided to take responsibility for my own life and that included thinking for myself. It would seem that after decades of failed policies people would stop voting for politicians who continue to be in the pockets of mass corporations, unfortunately there are those who are delusional and believe voting for the ''right'' person will make the world and theirs, a much better place, they're convinced by all this talk of more jobs being created, better health care policies being implemented, and strong foreign policies that will bring peace instead of war. Why time and time again people buy into all these empty promises mystifies me, but it would appear that a majority of those who vote, do so from a place of fear. It's of no surprise that a majority of voters watch the news regularly, how else would they be aware of the problems in the world?, and when election time rolls around, they would head to the booth and cast their vote, with hopes that the person they chose to vote for, can ''fix'' what's broken, makes you wonder doesn't it? When I chose to take personal responsibility for everything that happens in my own life I discarded ''outside'' ideas and influences that conflicted with my new truths, I discovered that the only person that could ACTUALLY make the world a better place was ME, by being a free thinker and believing that I and I only, am responsible for my own reality by choosing my own beliefs/perceptions, as well as what I am thinking and feeling, and as a result, creating. There is no need to rely on outside influences to fix problems that do not affect me or things that are beyond my own control, I've got better and more important things to do as my happiness isn't dependent upon someone/something else. Making the world a better place must come from one individual at a time, by changing their perception, waking up, and seeing the truth for what it really is, instead of multitudes of people buying into the media's fear and looking for a ''one'' savior, who promises to make all their problems go away, only failing to deliver. There is reality and then there is delusion, but things aren't what they seem, we could have it all backwards, what IS reality, is simply illusion, reality can be manipulated or changed, but delusion is simply wanting to believe something that just isn't a truth. I myself, will steer clear of all this 2016 presidential campaign hoopla, I've got WAY better things to do with my time instead of worrying about the problems in this world and looking for someone else to fix them. It's funny though, the very solution to everything is inside of ALL of us, and since we are connected to ''all that is'' the effort would be a hell of a lot smoother and easier than scrambling to the voting booths and looking for an outside fix, lose the news!
