“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Dutch Ethiopians: 'Ethiopia is at crossroads'

RNW, 22 August 2012, by Serginho Roosblad

(Cartoon: Gado)

Many Ethiopians living in the Netherlands share the same ambiguous feelings about the recent death of Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zelawi. They are sad that a fellow human being has passed away, but at the same time they think it’s a blessing for the country.

“I was very shocked to hear that he died,” says Mesfun Hagas, owner of an Ethiopian restaurant in Amsterdam. “I did not expect it. According to the information I had, he was not as ill as everyone said he was.” Hagas believes that Zenawi pushed the country in the right direction. “Now we have more than thirty universities. We used to have only one. Health care has improved. There are highways, and, most importantly, under his rule the economy of Ethiopia has grown.”

Shrouded in mystery

Zenawi's death on Monday is still shrouded in mystery. Rumours circulated for months about the health of the strongman, who took power in 1991 from Mengistu Haile Mariam's military junta. Those rumours became stronger when he didn’t attend the African Union Assembly last July. According to some sources, Zenawi had a brain tumor; others say he suffered from throat cancer.

According to Ethiopian state television, Meles died on Monday the 20th of August. “But we know that he already passed away a few days ago”, says journalist Fasil Yenealim, Fasil works for Ethiopian Satellite Television (ESAT) and lives in the Netherlands. “According to our sources Zenawi died a few days ago as the result of an infection, but he had been ill for quite some time.”

Still scared

Yenealim and Hagas are two of the very few Dutch Ethiopians who were willing to state their name when Radio Netherlands Worldwide talked with them. As Ethiopia has become increasingly repressive over the years, many Ethiopians living in the Netherlands became afraid to openly express their views. Even when they have been living in the diaspora for decades, they still fear the regime’s reprisals against their relatives back home.

Factional struggle

In Ethiopia many people are still in shock about the news. Amsterdam restaurant owner Mesfun Hagas, who is in constant contact with his relatives back home, says that the people feel that they're in limbo. “Some are afraid of what will happen. They have withdrawn their money from the bank because they fear a new civil war.”

Sit down and talk

Political commentator say that Ethiopia is at a turning point. According to journalist Fasil Yeanalim, the future for Ethiopia is indeed very uncertain. “Ethnically, in the past 20 years, the country has become more divided. Economically, contrary to what many people think, the country is very poor. Politics is very polarised, so I think that we, as Ethiopians, have to sit down and talk about the future of Ethiopia.”
