“We didn’t start the fire, it was always burning since the world’s been turning.” Reflecting on the words of that Billy Joel song, written 42 years ago, I think maybe we not only started the fire but in fact, we keep it burning. When major events occur anywhere in the world, millions of minds engage simultaneously through the internet or television. The events could be the happiness of The World Cup winner, the tragedy of a natural disaster, the discord of an election, or the constant drone of lies that obliterate truths. The result is a global reaction to the events that trigger a massive emotional shift that impacts the human psyche.
The effects can last a long time, or end in a shorter period. World Cup emotions may last till the trophy is awarded, while wars or natural disasters can leave indelible emotional scars that last a lifetime. The preposterous lies that burn the unseen atmosphere are more insidious. Those lies torch the fabric of the souls in individuals who are devastatingly weakened by the constant barrage of negativity in their lives. Nonetheless, any event has the power to change individual consciousness or alter personal beliefs in such a way that human consciousness on a greater level is also changed.
