Time for a Flip (in Consciousness)
While clearing the basement I've been listening to archived interviews from radio days past (in classic cassette format, no less! Talk about Throw Back Thursday!) Can't help but marvel at just how timely the topics are even today.
While the reference in this particular interview involves a former president and not our current one, it's the same angst and frustration applied to whomever's up top that I find fascinating. (In other words, nothing's changed in 10 years.) While Jon Bonet Ramsey is no longer the lead story, sadly today's news still leads with missing children. But most intriguing of all is the feeling this guest points to that he sees in growing numbers (as do I...even more so today)...that sense of "What's it all about?" and "Is this all there is?" born of our overly consumptive society, feeding on junk food, junk programming and adrenaline pumping entertainment. (Like what's our fascination with the dark side?)
According to Jared here, it's time for a "flip" --a shift in consciousness... where, instead of flipping out, we flip inward...from flipping out of the old paradigm and onto real living. It made sense 10 years ago. It's still making sense today. Now to get there~
May you find meaning in conversations of radio days past~
