Secrets of the Medicine People: A Blind Man Digging for Gold.

If Heart-Based Humanity were Gold, wouldn't we wish for ourselves a heart to find it?
Inner wealth and wisdom is in this nugget. How does a blind man know he has found gold? He is told of its value from others. Is he able to discern the color difference? Does he know how to look? As a gold miner of Human Heart we ask ourselves, "Does it matter?" When a child needs medical attention at a child care center when you are not there, or that child is bullied at school and needs a champion, or your elderly relative requires assistance when you are not there, or a combat veteran in search of an empathetic ear healing trauma; does shade of melanin matter?
To those who know these scenarios ethnicity really is trite. Humanity doesn't require ethnic consideration, it requires compassion and heart. The more we put to rest conversations of color, and allow room for the gold nuggets of Heart to emerge, the fewer concerns of how we treat each other will exist. Obsession of differences does not serve our greater good. Eventually every person who thinks so will be faced with an above scenario at one time or another in their lifetimes. They will be faced with THE NEED for compassion and gold. The more it is called into question, and not affirmed in mainstream, the more likely Humanity will not show up and abuse will happen. For every action - or intention - is a reaction. Karmic balance sheets are based in 'Right', not 'Good'. There IS a higher force keeping track of healthy intentions from one Human Being to Another; from one ethnicity to another. Justice comes around.
Isn't this the difference between a person and E.T. and a computer? Will we allow Humanity to go extinct from the inside-out? How do you know that is not the intention?
