Listen
Since so often even the alarm sirens don't wake us up, people nowadays need this gentle awakening. To reconnect with our roots, find their place in the world, reconstruct relation with nature, environment, and obviously with other humans. Rediscovery of the values essential for our good life seem to be a crucial issue and on many levels universal.
We need to learn what we did or still do wrong, and how to improve the quality of our life and the condition of our planet. We have to see how vulnerable the world is, how overexploited by us, how tired with humans. And we must reconnect with other people too. To feel them as life companions, and also partners who are able to find the same goals in the responsible care and rebirth process.
Each of us tries to find our own path. It's in our nature. But sometimes we get lost. We forget what is important, what really counts in life. We start to live in a coma, day by day nearing the emptiness, lack of sense and motivation.
My gratitude to SIX for moderating the research across the world and collecting a variety of insights that shows modern people’s condition, particularly around pandemic time.
"Listen..." is a call for individual reflection and act. For deeper contact with our ecosystem and universe, for awareness of superior order, and focus on harmony. The prize is high. Time to move on!
A Call
The significant part of acting, playing and living is listening.
Listening to yourself, matched with listening to everything around you - your environment. It’s a meditation - inner journey into your human creature related to the world. The universe begins and ends within you.
How do you feel about it? Can you do something for your wellbeing and make the world a better place?

Listen… (do not speak)
Listen to your home (if you have one)
Listen to your heart (if it’s not muted or on stand-by)
Listen what fishes are silent about (if you didn’t frighten them)
Listen to the birds (what they gossip about?)
Listen what the trees whisper about (if they are still close to you)
Listen what the stones remembering as a given pleasure or harm
(if they were not swearing to keep the secret)
…
Listen to your road (it's the one you go on)
Listen to what is inside us and what is over us! (they call it universe)
Listen how “we” and “I” sound like (have you ever suffered from solitude?)
Listen to the difference (it's loud!)
Listen to “we” as a multiplication of “I” (easy math - right?)
…
Listen to the wind (moving air brings changes)
Listen to the fire (it caresses and destroys)
Listen to the water (it's an elixir of life)
Listen to the Earth (how can you enjoy gravitation?)
Listen to the wholeness (big big time!)
Listen to every single organ and particles in you (do you know all their names by heart?)
Listen to each atom of your body (are they deserving your gratitude?)
…
Listen to your loneliness (are you really that alone?)
Listen to the other people (let them bring themselves to your life)
Listen to love (make your bell ringing!)
Listen to hate (just for fullness)
Listen to anger (with understanding where it comes from)
Listen to the light (sounds impossible?)
Listen to the darkness (for comparison)
Listen to the pain (how relief can sound like?)
Listen to poverty (here never ‘less is more’)
Listen to richness (what it means for you?)
…
Let them all sound out…
What the planet Earth sounds about?
…
Listen.
Resonate.
And act. Now.
Or Later.
(Listen: Why not now?)
