For the last few years, and increasingly over the last few months I have experienced a growing sense of "imminent need". I really can't think of a better way to put it than that. This feeling caused me to seek out forums such as this that were populated by people of similar spiritual philosophies. Once I found Bring4th, I knew that I had found an appropriate home to do..... something. I really wasn't sure (and still am not) just what I felt the need to "do".
If I'm understanding you correctly, that's what I was trying to convey in my Kennedy quote adaptation. What is the STO path about, if not service? If we all came to this forum with an attitude of serving and giving freely, then there would be nothing to be dissatisfied about. Wouldn't dissatisfaction indicate an expectation of receiving something in return?...or an attachment to a given outcome/result?
At the same time, leaders in any movement have to inspire others to get things done. As one who has been active in a number of causes, I can certainly relate to your feeling of dissatisfaction. Frustration, even. Why don't they get it? Here I am working so hard, and so many people are still asleep! (regarding whatever cause I am working on.)
Maybe the real question is: How unified are we in our motivation to effect positive changes on our planet at this nexus, and in regards to how to best going about doing that? Is there more that we could be doing here on the forum to motivate and inspire one another, which could then ripple out into our everyday lives?
