Thanks so much to everyone who had something to say about what I posted yesterday. There are so many discussions that I would love to carry forward with in the different threads, and it is reassuring to hear that the sentiments which I gave voice to are shared. Something is definitely "up". The question is - what to do about it

It could be said that there's a lot of resentment in the work towards America, thus generating all the bad vibes towards us. This can largely be due to the leaders we have in power and the things we are doing. However, as easy as it is to blame them (and some of the blame falls on THEM) a big portion of this blame fall on each and every one of us. The key word here is APATHY.
Our leaders are dragging us towards some really nasty roads, but each and every one of us is responsible for turning the other way, for not being involved enough, vocal enough. We (as a nation) are all to blame for the times we choose not to listen, for the times that "Britney Spear's pregnancy" or the latest Micheal Jackson fiasco or the latest reality TV show consumes our attention instead of the thing we can do to improve our collective lives. Don't get me wrong. We all need diversions and entertainment and such, but don't you feel that our hunger for entertainment and our collective lack of education borders on avoidance and denial, rather than the occasional escapism?
Yes, I believe our Beliefs can change our reality. I also believe that the things we achieve individually, somehow raise the bar for the human race. In other words, every time someone does something extraordinary, cool and amazing...it opens that possibility for the rest of us. Think of all the 'firsts' that we have in our history.
What can we do? I believe we can heal the world by trying to be as fabulous, capable and amazing as each of us can be, in our own lives, and to in the lives we touch.
