Recently mentioned the movie “Bird Box” in one of my “Morning Thoughts” (the little videos I do and then post on facebook and on my Youtube Channel).  I had encouraged everyone to watch it as I said that I would be talking about it soon.  If you haven’t seen it, pause here, go watch it and then continue reading.  I won’t ruin the ending but the short version is there is “something” making people crazy when they LOOK at it.  It not only makes people hurt  themselves but it makes them hurt others.  Whatever “it” is it seems to bring out the worst in everyone who looks at it.  The funny thing is you never see what it is (which has apparently infuriated a lot of people…lol).  Apparently the only way to survive it is to wear a blindfold so you never see it.

When I saw the movie I had no idea it was new and there was such a hoopla going on about it.  I had taken a weekend “off the grid” to process a recent loss.  I was on the couch clicking through the movies and it instantly caught my attention so I watched it.  I enjoyed the movie but there was something about it and I honestly could not get that movie out of my head.  I just felt there was a deeper meaning to it all. Then I was driving to work one morning and it all just became so crystal clear!

For me the movie was about the times we are currently living in.  For me the “thing” we never see represented all the hate and anger in this world.  In the movie if you “looked at it” or if you “focused on it” it made you mad.  It made you lash out at others and hurt yourself as well.  I feel so strongly that this is what is happening on this planet now.  There is so much spreading of hate and anger.  People focus on it, jump in and spread it.  The hate the anger not only destroys those around them but it also destroys the individual.  I thought it was beyond awesome that in the movie if you didn’t look at it (translation…NOT participating in the hate in anger) you were safe.  Just like in our real world, when you refuse to get sucked into the drama your life is filled with peace.  I really thought the most important part of the movie was the fact that they survived by wearing the blindfolds which lead them or forced them to use their other senses.  Since they couldn’t look with their human eyes they had to rely on sounds, smells, and their intuition to guide them.  WOW!  What is that?  They survived by NOT looking through their human eyes?  Now where have I heard that before?  Oh yeah that annoying Psychic Lisa Ann has been talking about this, literally, for years (Youtube Channel Spiritquest Productions Dec 2015 “Close your eyes so you can see”)

I tested my theory on this movie several times.  I kinda did my own little experiment.  I purposely asked a group of people I consider to be AUTHENTICALLY spiritual to watch the movie and then to tell me what they thought.  I did share that I thought it had an underlying message.  Every one of them picked up on almost all the same observations!  Every one of them walked away feeling there was a deeper meaning to the movie and that it wasn’t at all a horror flick.   I think I can safely speak for all of us when I say, we are all thrilled to see such a strong and powerful message being viewed by millions (even if some don’t see it…pun intended).

is the year we begin to walk away from those spreading the fear and anger.  This is the year we choose to stay in our drama free happy bubble. This is the year more and more people will begin saying NO to those who choose to constantly cause the drama.  This is the year we say NO to the negative energy bullies among us.  This is the year of Authenticity.  This is the 3 year where we focus on creating that balance between body, mind and spirit.  This is the year we find, hold onto and share with others our positivity and sense of overall peace and well-being!
