Awakening Path - Page 3 of Article: President Bush and the Formula of Compassion

Yes, I can. How can I blame him for the things that I allowed him to do because I didn't want to take the time and energy to investigate, find out what's really going on, and be willing to risk everything to demand better?

Step Nine: Kindness

Now that I have released President Bush, can I be kind to him, and if so, how can I do it, and when will I do it?

Yes, I can. I can do it by thanking him on a soul level for the role he is playing, knowing that without such a perfect and painful mirror, we would not be willing to see the parts of ourselves that we, as an individual and as a nation need to change. In addition, I will be kind by holding onto this perspective when I see him commit atrocities, knowing that he is playing a role and not say negative things about him to others.

In closing, I believe with all my heart that we, the people, are responsible for the state of our nation, our president has simply fulfilled our requests, taking the power we quickly relinquished in order to have things safe, secure, and easy. Only by experiencing what we don't want can we finally decide what we do want. Through his actions, he had given us that opportunity.

The question now is, how far will he have to go in playing out his role before we say, "Enough!?" I believe that time has come. If we don't want a lying, cheating, disingenuous president in the White House then we must stop being and doing these things to ourselves and each other. If we want truth, honesty, and integrity from our leader, we must become those things ourselves. Remember, our president is only a mirror of us; what a powerful and true mirror he has been.
