Brexit – Stage Right

I am so happy and terribly proud of what the citizens of The United Kingdom were able to accomplish last week in voting to leave the European Union.  What they have done is something that many other countries in the world must be marveling at and wondering if they, too, might be able to remove themselves from similar situations where they find that those who are making the decisions in their lives are not doing so in a way that is balanced and fair.

I wholeheartedly applaud the British people and their firmness of reason and their determination to make right what they know to be wrong.  I send my support out into the universe on their behalf in hopes that this historic and monumental thing that they have done brings them all that they have worked for, and I wish for them as they try to reclaim their autonomy and bring back the stability that they so badly want, that they also remember their  past in order to not stumble badly over their own karma as they do.

The sins of the past and the sins of the father’s are never truly forgotten.  All deeds are etched into the universe and await balancing throughout time.  Few countries have been so successful in conquering their neighbors as the English have in decades/centuries past, except for maybe the Americans and the Romans. The battles that they fought for Scotland, Ireland, India, Hong Kong and other lands may seem to be resolved by the conquered peoples there, but it is a fact that the universe never forgets a wrong.  Even if the wrongs appear to be overcome by those who were the recipients of those wrongs.  I would urge caution on the part of the British to remember that they have many times in history forced their way and their will upon more peaceful countries and most of those countries have never had the luxury of standing up and saying we don’t want this, let us out.  I cannot imagine the EU coming in with weapons and forcing the English to stay in the union at gunpoint, but just for the sake of argument, it might be an intelligent thing to ponder their past actions as they extricate themselves from a situation that they do not want.  Others have hoped and prayed and wished to be free of what was forced upon them in times past, and though it may seem totally irrelevant in this day and time to dredge up such things, what we put forth in the world is never lost.  There is always a point, somewhere, sometime that we will be required to remember. I am not saying that their karma will be instant and overwhelming.  Sometimes balance comes softly and easily as if we suddenly always knew what we must do to make things right.  I hope that this will be the case for the U.K.  God knows they are suffering in the present with all of the social and economic problems that are happening there and in the entire world.  For their sake, I hope that this is not the time to deal with anything other than their own desire to make right their world. If this is so, then I feel that they can make the transition back to autonomy and sovereignty as swiftly and painlessly as possible. The rest of the world is watching with great hope.  Britain’s victory and independence is ours vicariously, and we know that there must be a moment in time coming for the rest of us when we can reclaim our freedom and dignity through right action and calm, clear reasoning if the U.K. can make it so.   Those who are not feeling that this is right are most likely feeling differently because they are either afraid or they stand to lose their perceived edge. 

As much as I am tempted to try to make a prediction on what is to come, I am resisting the urge.  I hope to see this wonderful opportunity unfold in the best possible way, and I pray that what the British have managed to accomplish will give the rest of the world the incentive to hope for a better future than we have been shown for some time now, and bring us back to a world that we can live in without tyranny and brutality and unconcern for those who only want to live their lives with dignity and peace.
