REFLECTIONS ON 2020: PERFECT VISION What is 2020? Perfect vision. We can see our connection to the world. Jung called it the collective unconscious. Buddhists say we are all one. A pandemic. Everyone, everyone in the whole wide world is affected by Covid19. Perfect vision: More BIPOC ( Black indigenous people of color) getting sicker from Covid19, dying from it, more unemployment, more tragedy. 2020. Perfect vision: We see extreme corruption in government, mentally imbalanced leaders who attempt to thwart democracy. We see how important democracy is and are determined not to lose it. We now see democracy had a near death experience. 2020. Perfect vision: Racial injustice is in our faces. White supremacy is the ruling system in our land. How will we ever not see George Floyd and too numerous to mention others who cannot breathe, being murdered by racist police, by racist citizens. By the system of white supremacy. We are shown in black and white that although most police officers are not racist and seek to protect citizens, white supremacy ignites brutality and corruption. 2020. Perfect vision: Lift up the large American Puritan heritage rock placed over their Shadow, unable to accept the darker side of human nature. Which has to be acknowledged vs acted upon. Cover it up. Cover it up. Sex trafficking. corruption, incest, murder, racism, sexism, hatred, mental imbalance in power. Lift up that rock and see all the creepy, crawly things that are revealed as they clamber out of darkness. Perfect vision within government, society, and ourselves. 2020. Perfect vision: How can we not see, acknowledge, and heal. The opportunity for perfect vision for ourselves. The time alone forced upon us, within our homes, to look within and with honesty see all the parts we embody – the glorious, the mystical, the tragic, the treacherous. We all have the capacity to be the killing policeman, to be the power hungry politicians who forget their ideal visions and reasons why they entered politics. 2020. Perfect vision: We have the opportunity to see, and to save. Many suggest the only way to do so is through love. May we learn simply to give and receive love. With our new perfect vision.
