Most people would need to hear only one thing - here's my answer on the @TribeSteemUp Bi-Weekly Question

If You Could Teach/Show Everyone In The World One Thing, (Something That Has A Huge Impact On Humanity) What Would It Be?



Years of hands-on educational work with thousands of people have made me realize that most people are in distress. They have problems in life.

  • A survey I have conducted on this subject last month validated that hypothesis:

  • No matter how illusionary their problems may be, most people, are faced with personal issues pertaining to one of the four themes: Relationships, Abundance, Health, Self-Worth.

  • The answers in the Other category were: "post-trauma", "work-life balance", "my future", "stability at work", "lack of meaning", "giving to otheres on my own expense", "staying positive", "other people", "energy feeding/abuse", "government", "grief", "procrastination and finishing projects", "career"
  • Nonetheless, each of those other answers can easily fit one of the four categories above mentioned.
  • And, not surprisingly, the vast majority of them would really want to have a solution to their problems.

The solution Side

That survey, and the one that followed it about dating, have been helping me to crystallize and brain-storm some ideas for a technological tool to mitigate some of the hassles we have in life.

But I am digressing.

My claim is that most people, at least at some point in life, are faced with serious problems, and the thoughts and emotions that swirl within miserably haunt them. At those times the best advice you can give them, the only one thing they would really want to hear from you, to be encouraged by, that one message that will help them pass those depressing moments of no hope, that message is comprised of simple three words:


All is well


Now, this is more than a statement or a banal positive mantra to make one feel good for a short while. If there is one huge, fundamental, stable truth in life that would be it. All is well. All has been well since ever, All is well even now, and all will be well, in a future that one is not grasping yet.

The most consoling deed you can do for another human being is to look them in the eyes, and with all the balance and inner peace that you can find, tell them, assuringly and confidently, that All will be well.

And they will believe you. Not only because they want to, or because they don't have a choice, but because you will strike a chord within them, with your authenticity, your inner tone will resonate with a deep part within them, their Master voice that has been covered by the agonizing thoughts and the daunting emotions. A voice that now, thanks to your simple three words, is given a chance to surface. And they will reconnect with their master self, perhaps for the first time in their life so far, and they will know beyond any rational thought, that you are right. That indee All is well.

If you still have doubt, how all can be well?, then I invite you to look back at a personal incident in your life that was considered to be bad, and how you have managed to overcome that bad time, wisdomize yourself by it, grow to become a better human who is closer to their core soul self, and generally speaking how that bad incident turned to be a gift for you. Do that and you would know what I am talking about. That all is well.

But what when 'all is not well'? What then?

Being a teacher, in various forms and shapes, I have been approached, many times, by people whose lives presented them with a picture that was far from being well, or alright. Deaths, accidents, loss of fortune and goods, lacks in many configurations, repeated mental collapses, and painful physical disorders.

What could one possibly say to a mother who was just now notified that her son has died in a car accident? Or what could be said to a businessman that embezzled the company's savings, and now being sent to jail, condemned by the public, to never regain its position as a community leader? "all is well" will not suffice in such happenings.

Actually, from my experience, in such moments there is really nothing to say. Just be next to them, sending out, automatically, a feeling of balance and order. And later when they are calmer and ready to hear a grander truth, you may carry on to tell them the second basic fundamental truth in the human world, one that comes when things seem to be not well, extremely not well. Then, you tell them another three words, that while may seem to be irrational and even upsetting, are no less true. You tell them:


It doesn't matter


It doesn't matter because from the perspective of the master self, The I AM soul level, the human experience is, well, just an experience. A compilation of experiences that serve the soul, enrich it, uplift it, delights it in ways that go far deeper than the sensual human level.

And thanks to the wisdom that is extracted, even from the bad experiences, the human is fulfilling their destiny, their master plan for realization.

And that, my friends, is what really matters!

I used to meet up with some folk from my community once a week to sing and one of my favourite songs/ mantra's to sing was, all will be well, but now reading this I think we should change it to all is well. Beautiful answer @nomad-magus xx

Indeed.
Quoting a Master i know:
"All is well in all of creation"
Thanks 🙏

I am obviously heading in the right direction. Yesterday, I came across this from James Altucher: "Everyone you see on the street today - wish them well. Wish that they all make a lot of money and have a lot of health and that they are all having passionate sex with someone tonight!"

... Indeed. And eventually we will all get there. That's why I wrote, All is well.
Thanks for the comment 👍
