The Power and Powerlessness of Words

(I really thought I was going to leave this blog because nothing else was coming through to post.  However, surprisingly, something has come through that I very much feel guided to post.  My services here are still needed.  There may be longer periods of silence from me though if nothing else comes through for a while, and of course, one never knows when the world could 'change in the blink of an eye.'  Whatever the case may be, I have also turned the comments section back on.)

Cobra mentioned before that from a historical perspective, there is far less suffering in modern times.  In this regard, today I researched human aggression and how it has changed over time:

Although there are still wars and genocides on earth, as a whole, the surface population's aggression is much less physically violent compared with decades and centuries ago.  The aggression has transitioned from primarily being physical to primarily being psychological through the use of words – both in person and online.  Put another way:

"If aggression is defined narrowly as bodily harm, humanity has improved.  If it is defined as hostility, dehumanization, and readiness to attack others socially or psychologically, humanity has regressed."

It's probably safe to say that we now live on a planet of people who bicker and argue.  Not all people regularly do this of course, and sometimes there really is something that needs to be called out, but evidently, a very substantial portion of the surface population is engrossed in verbal drama-conflicts.  Perhaps this is one of the main areas the lurker/subquantum has been cornered off to.  Verbal drama-conflicts are a major component of relationship issues, which Cobra stated to be a major area of lurker infiltration.  

When it comes to comments sections online, such as the comments section on 2012 Portal, yes there are many comments that bicker, argue, and/or are basically full of nonsense.  However, the 2012 Portal comments section certainly does not represent all lightworkers/warriors.  Only a very small percentage of lightworkers/warriors actually engage in the 2012 Portal comments section.  Also, not all who post comments there are lightworkers/warriors.  And, it's important to note that there are still uplifting and empowering comments there.

Words are interesting in that they can have a massive amount of power, and I'm often very careful with what I say online.  If there's someone else saying hurtful things though, the decision can be made to not give their words any power.  Just as great power can be given to words, so can great power be taken away.  And of course there's this old saying:

"Sticks and stones may break my bones but words may never hurt me."  

The individual can decide which words have power and which words to not take seriously.  One can choose which words have influence and which words are to be brushed off as unimportant/non-influential.
