I'm okay with memes. After all, “a
picture is worth a thousand words,” and a meme is usually a
picture. I'm also okay with words.
Many are in a shell, hiding from pain,
fear and judgment/expectations of others, and only feel safe when
interacting on a superficial level. Many are born into a culture of
interaction that is only at a superficial level. Too many have lived
with explosive and abusive family members, which led to generalized
fear of relating to others in any way that might trigger disapproval.
When I was growing up, independent thought (that was expressed) led
to being cast out of the “in crowd.” Then there are the bullies,
manipulators and emotional blackmailers, in all probability victims
themselves, now feeling compelled to pass on the pain.
A lot of memes reflect fear, pain,
confusion and negativity.
Some attempt to share a bit of healing
humor, others, cruel jokes.
Some memes are incredibly beautiful,
inspiring profound levels of Spirit. Many of those are published by
others who've processed their pain in sublime ways, although may
still experience anxiety when considering expressing their heart in
words.
FB memes represent a microcosm of
society, with all the good and bad elements. They are not going to
stop appearing. Don't expect that complaining about the negativity
will lead to positive results. When facing the worst of it, remain
aware of that place of Unconditional Love within.
If discussion about practical
application of metaphysical principles is desired, make the
invitation with conviction that it will attract sincere participants
and productive discussion will take place. Make the invitation with
the same affirmative energy as is used when saying, “I am in
perfect health.” The results will inspire you.
