Reason vs Will

Published October 27, 2020 by tindertender

“We are an awareness; we are not objects; we have no solidity. We are boundless.”

“The basic difference between an ordinary man and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge while an ordinary man takes everything either as a blessing g or as a curse.”

“Man doesn’t move between good and evil. His true movement is between negativeness and positiveness.”

~ Tales of Power by Carlos Casteneda

Letting Go

We have a full blue moon coming up on the 31st.

It’s time to shed what no longer belongs, if you haven’t already. Spend these next few days tuning into yourself, forgiving and letting go.

As often as possible, stay present. Stay in the now!

This blue moon will illuminate truth and enhance what you focus on, intend and believe.

If you’re focused on suffering, you will create more suffering. If you’re focused on love, you will create more love.

Your commitments will be supercharged. Your harvest will be boosted.

Now, it’s time to ask yourselves. Are you creating the world you desire? Or are you allowing the fear, the programming to create the world for you?

If you haven’t yet, be sure to clear your energies.

My Name Is Pride

Published October 27, 2020 by tindertender

My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
I cheat you of your God-given destiny…
because you demand your own way.
I cheat you of contentment…
because you “deserve better than this.”
I cheat you of knowledge…
because you already know it all.
I cheat you of healing…
because you are too full of you to forgive.
I cheat you of holiness…
because you refuse to admit when you are wrong.
I cheat you of vision…
because you’d rather look in the mirror than out a window.
I cheat you of genuine friendship…
because nobody’s going to know the real you.
I cheat you of love…
because real romance demands sacrifice.
I cheat you of greatness in heaven…
because you refuse to wash another’s feet on earth.
I cheat you of God’s glory…
because I convinced you to seek your own.
My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
You like me because you think I’m always looking out for you.
Untrue.
I’m looking to make a fool of you.
God has so much for you, I admit, but don’t worry…
If you stick with me you’ll never know.

Affirmation 10-26-2020

Published October 26, 2020 by tindertender

Today is a day to focus on wisdom. Wisdom is not based on how smart I am, or how smart others think I am. Knowledge comes from the outside. Wisdom comes from within. I can be open to my experiences throughout the day and process them, evaluate them, add them to what I know. Synthesizing all of my experience adds to my wisdom. Today I will be open to this inner knowledge, and try to recognize it in others as well.

Affirmation 10-23-2020

Published October 23, 2020 by tindertender

Today is a day to focus on removing obstacles. Some days it feels like doors shut, roadblocks go up, stairs become steeper. Obstacles can teach me things, I know. But sometimes enough is enough and it is time to clear them out. Today I remove any obstacles of thought or action that are keeping me from reaching my goals. These obstacles will diminish and my way will be made clear.

The Journey Is Short

Published October 22, 2020 by tindertender

An elderly woman got on a bus and sat down. At the next stop, a strong, grumpy young woman climbed up and sat down sharply beside the old woman, hitting her with her numerous bags.

When she saw that the elderly woman remained silent, the young woman asked her why she had not complained when she hit her with her bags.

The elderly woman replied with a smile: “There is no need to be rude or discuss something so insignificant, as my trip next to you is short because I am going to get off at the next stop.”

This answer deserves to be written in gold letters: “There is no need to discuss something so insignificant, because our journey together is too short.”

Each of us must understand that our time in this world is so short, that darkening with struggles, useless arguments, jealousy, not forgiving others, discontent and an attitude of constant discovery is a ridiculous waste of time and energy.

Did someone break your heart ? Stay calm.
The trip is too short.

Did someone betray you, intimidate, cheat or humiliate you? Relax. Excuse.
The trip is too short.

Did someone insult you without reason ? Stay calm. Ignore it.
The trip is too short.

Did a neighbor comment on the chat that you didn’t like ? Stay calm. Ignore him. Forgive that.
The trip is too short.

Whatever the problem someone has brought us, remember that our journey together is too short.

No one knows the length of that trip. Nobody knows when it will arrive at its stop. Our trip together is too short.

We will appreciate friends and family.

Let us be respectful, kind and forgive, we will be filled with gratitude and joy, after all our trip together is very short.

Blessed Silence

Published October 22, 2020 by tindertender

I haven’t experienced ‘relative’ silence for nearly two decades. Yes, I was exposed to one heck of an egregore, 2 in fact. I’m surprised I survived it.

In the last two weeks the mind has gone quiet. It is odd, not listening to many folks speaking from the unseen. I am grateful.

It was so odd, in fact, and I had become so accustomed to it over the last 17 years, I found myself doing things that would actually make the mind noisy.

Last night though, the thought came to me … “Enjoy the silence. When was the last time you experienced it? You really have no idea how long it will last … enjoy it.”

And so I took a book to bed with me and read until I was sleepy.

And I woke this morning to silence, or near so.

And I reveled in it.

Just two short weeks ago this was such a different story.

Is the resonance calming, or have the egregories become distracted by another, or others? Either way, I’ll be thankful for this time and relish the ‘solitude’.

And I will focus on creating the life I desire.

And I will pull back all energies and efforts from that which does not serve this vision.

Thank you for the lessons. It was a difficult process, one that may not be finished … yet still, I must thank you for this reprieve.

And … breathe …

What Happens Is Due To Choices You Make

Published October 21, 2020 by tindertender

Yes … and no.

It all starts with manipulation.

We are placed in a family unit which holds certain beliefs and life styles. Some say we choose this family … I think not.

We are taught certain behaviors, certain habitual patterns, we become acclimated to a particular area of the world.

We spend our life in these patterns until we decide we wish to reformat our life, into something WE choose, not that which our parents and peers instilled in us.

Even then, the choices we make are under constant manipulations, constant trials we face as we retrain our minds and restructure our habitual patterns.

We may fall into the past pattern occasionally, or even frequently. Yet we must continue to rise above it, to change the pattern, to eliminate reminders of these patterns from our lives in order to give ourselves a fighting chance at restructure, at choosing consciously our future.

Since we know our younger years were manipulated by the hidden hand, who also affected our role models lives, we can say that ‘choice’ is simply what we do from the limited experiences we have been given to pick from.

Anything else …

We’ve got to create ourselves.

How do we know it is proper choice vs manipulated choice?

Proper choice will benefit our life, and assist us in spiraling upward and forward into greater experiences, where goodness multiplies rather than its opposite.

Manipulated choice is that born of programming from youth and varying circumstances we were exposed to, involving a limited number of choices available, keeping a perpetual cycle of some form of chaos alive.

Usually, it is the manipulator who will remind you “it was your choice” …. all while they urge the fall from grace, so to speak.

The hidden hands … they cannot ascend. They have chosen dominion over this earth and have paid the price for it … their very soul. This is where they will be for eternity, or until they can no longer keep their life viable. Misery loves company, and they will do whatever necessary to keep humans trapped in these particular lower fields.

By rule, they can tempt you, but they also must tell you how to help yourself. “Stay away from thc …. go ahead and smoke it …”

The tempter will always tempt, and then say it was your choice when you fall. They simply cannot leave well enough alone. It’s a game you see … sheeple are a commodity for the woke and ancient ones pulling strings.

So … it is clear that in order to change habitual patterns, the entirety of the environment must change. Making this shift is a challenge in itself when others are involved … when one must wait for them to take action on their own part. And when they don’t …

Jekyll & Hyde Bitch

I don’t like to wear the hat, honestly. But this is the future I’m talking about. How does one remain in LOVE when they are fighting to cleanse their environment, giving their Soul the best chance possible for stability? Well, love of self must outweigh anything else …

The tempter … they are hidden and also in plain sight, often they are latched on for dear life … because it is you (and me) they feed upon, energetically and physically. To them our presence literally means that which sustains life … theirs.
