The Breathing Prosperity blog

Okay this will be the final in this series because the subject is even hard for me to talk about…When you talk about murder/suicide or rape or poverty they are hard subjects for anyone to focus on or talk about and the same has held true for me. Even though there was an internal need to talk about it, the subject felt heavy and so I have been pushing it off for days not wanting to finish the series. So I’m going to talk today about poverty and children creating.

Can children create their lives?

I’ve heard this spoken about and the answers are usually no children cannot create, but I beg to differ on this one. Children have thoughts just like adults and if their thoughts do not vibrate and create then neither can adults’.

My son - although only 2 years old - attracted a book bag to himself. This 2 year old wanted a book bag, don’t ask me why, but in his mind this was essential to his everyday living and so he proceeded to ask for one the only way he knew how. First he would go to daycare and want to take home other kids’ book bags. That proved to show no results as I just thought it was funny. So next he wants to now say my daughter’s book bag was his own, even though he could barely carry it. Next he went after the crayon and paint case, and he would insist that he would carry that daily. Well I’d carry it and he’d instruct me not to forget it…The final straw was when he took my daughter’s purse, opened it, threw out everything in it and put both straps one over each shoulder and decided this was his book bag. I thought okay…I guess I should go buy him a book bag…BUT NO - NOT ANY OLD BOOK BAG! He wanted a spiderman book bag even though all he can say is PIDERMAN.

Now isn’t that how an adult creates as well? They have the thought, they keep that thought and follow the actions till it comes. Now he and his bookbag are never apart. He lugs it around the house as if it’s precious.

Can children create poverty and abuse?

The answer is I DON’T KNOW. I would have to say no if asked…The reason is that these things are not created 100% by the kids themselves - but neither is any other sort of abuse is it? As far as poverty goes, have you ever noticed a child? They feel abundance is natural unless you teach them otherwise, meaning even a baby will cry for food and expect their cries to be fulfilled. A young child will eat and want more - expect more - and will not think there is shortage until you say ‘There is no more.’ Their natural state is abundance…and so that leads me to co-creation.

Do adults help kids co-create?

YES!! Kids do not naturally create any state other than abundance unless you teach them to do that. You ask an adult and they will say oh it’s because they don’t know better. But the truth is it that kids are closer to the Universal Laws than adults and adults are the ones that are aware of poverty and abuse and pass it on to the kids… Notice that most kids will tell you that they had no idea they were poor until a particular incident happened. I’ve heard a lot of people say I didn’t know I was poor till xyz. They just assume life is normal. So to answer the question no a child starving in Africa doesn’t create starvation all on it’s own. They are born and are taught that the ways of the world are that they have no food and this lesson is repeated over and over again and reinforced by their growling stomachs. Kids are always learning and lessons are learnt early and fast.

Are you saying that people who are starving can just think positively?

Nope it would be a start but I don’t think just thinking positively will create that food will appear especially if you have a very deep belief that there is a shortage of food in the world. It is just like the deep belief that most people have that there is a shortage of money in the world. I can tell you that there are trillions of dollars floating around and every day the US is printing 400 million dollars but it does nothing for you if you hold a belief there is a shortage of money. Until you start holding a belief that there is an abundance of money it doesnt matter if standing next to you is the opportunity to make more money than you can ever dream…It is the same with starvation.  It does nothing for me to say that the world has so much food that people are literally wasting food each day…it does nothing for someone who only sees a shortage of food.

How do we fix the situation?

I wish I could be one of those people that knew all the answers to life and fixed the world but I don’t. Or maybe I do…Maybe the problem is the fact that we want to FIX the world as if something is wrong with it. Do we try to fix where the rain falls or do we allow it to fall? Maybe that is the problem with us as humans - the need to always fix what we feel is not right with the world. The need to fix the thing that doesn’t sit well with us. But what happens when your lifestyle doesn’t sit well with someone else and they decide to take it upon themselves to fix it. What happens when religion gets to the point when they decide that people should live a certain way and they decide to fix it.  Isn’t this the reason for war - because both sides feel they are right and one side decides they are going to FIX IT - because it doesn’t sit right with them? How someone else has chosen to live doesn’t sit right with them? Isn’t that what religious wars are about? One person thinking thier religion is right or their way of life is right and they want to FIX IT by either converting people or killing them off. When do we get to the point of allowing and stop fixing and judging everyone else based on our own standards? Doesn’t GOD/UNIVERSE allow free will - SO WHY CAN’T WE?
