I know I said I would write about healing vs. treatment, and if cutting out a tumor is healing a soul, and I will, but not today. Today, a major website I manage was hacked. Yea - just so someone could have a good laugh my kids had to stay inside on the first sunny and warm day we've had in weeks. Their momma was on the phone with the hosting company and in front of the computer screen until mid-afternoon. When it appeared the problem was solved, and the website was uploading, I took some quiet time to apologize, appreciate my children's patience, and explain what had happened. They decided the hacker should be caught and sent to jail. They asked if I had called the police (it never dawned in me to report the incident to anyone...who do you contact?) and if the website was now going to be safe from hackers. I assured them we were doing everything to keep this from ruining their day again.
It wasn't until later when my almost 4 year old and I were sharing a snack that he told me he thought the hacker should be shot before going to jail. I was a bit stunned at his violent suggestion. I recently wrote an article for Inner Vision Magazine (www.innervisionmagazine.com June 2009 issue) about toy weapons play and how our family had brought the Divine into the "Good Guys vs. Bad Guys" game, so I had some ammunition of my own. At this point my 7 1/2 year old joined us so I had the captive audience I wanted. "What if we sent the hacker our heart/love energy so he chooses to do loving things instead of hurtful things?" Both boys liked this idea - it made them feel powerful and capable of helping me. My youngest suggested that we send our love energy all around the planet so everyone could feel and do loving things instead of hurtful things. I LOVED it! I further explained when someone does something hurtful to us we have two choices - to raise their energy vibration up to ours, or to lower our energy vibration to theirs by hurting them back. I knew my oldest understood the concept when he pointed his parent finger at me and said, "Well, mom - weren't you lowering your vibrational energy when you were yelling at that guy from the hosting company on the phone this morning?" Um...yea. So, Senior Tech Tom, that big wave of love energy you surely felt around 2:30 this afternoon was from my boys and I. Great thing about raising your kids consciousness - they can call you on yours!

I agree that its time we teach children to do the right thing with inner integrity and not expect that they get something in return. It is one thing to share love, but to spread it globly is an amazing concept, I didnt realize that children had.
ReplyDeleteI am just SHOCKED that your youngest! said what he said. I would have choaked on my snack!
