Clear Thoughts Outside

I just finished reading book 6 of the Ringing Cedars of Russia and many thoughts and realizations are running through my head.
The books are fantastic, the best series I have ever read, and yet it leaves a lot to consider about our world today. How did we get here? The books answers this clearly. But what can I do in my day to day life to help my family get out of the illusion and secured in the space of reality?

Today I am feeling impatient with the world. It's not easy to begin seeing through the illusions that surround us moment to moment. If one more bill arrives in the mail, I'm going to scream. It's all just a distraction from what is truly important: family and having uninterrupted time to think. It seems like we're being pulled in a million directions. It seems like there is so much outside of ourselves that cannot run without our constant attention. The outside world seems to nag and pull at us like starving children. Pay this bill now! Call me back now! Me me me! Now now now! Why do we put up with this? It's maddening.

So I see through the chaos. I see what is really going on. We as a society seem to have allowed our energies to be pulled away from our home, away from our gardens, away from our children. So, today I will be shutting off the computer and going outside with my kids to plant some seeds. My kids are far too used to playing with plastic toys instead of interacting with things that have a soul. Sure, I am to blame for this. I was ignorant when they were little. I was poor and living in a dead dimension. Only now am I realizing how important it is to interact with living things. Bills are not alive, so I don't need to expend an ounce of emotion on them. People on the phone can figure things out for themselves. I need to put my foot down and be a stand for my family. We are going outside. Perhaps you should too. I will hear your thoughts better outside than through the phone anyway. See you out there!
