Selling Stories

Published December 25, 2019 by tindertender

When I was a child, my uncle went away to fight in the Vietnam war. He sent to my cousin and I, three small ‘gold’ bracelets … we were very young at that time.

Recently, I discovered they were not gold at all, but a gold ‘colored’ tin.

I am thinking on this, this early morning, and I wonder how many times we are sold on a story that has no basis in the truth.

He may have been told they were gold. He may have believed he was sending us a precious metal gift. (The gift was precious, despite the fact it was not what we were told).

How many other stories are sold to us as truth? My story about these little gold bracelets is quite minor, and I am certain there are plenty more of these falsehoods being ‘sold’ to the public which are quite a bit up the ladder of falsehoods, shared by those who dwell in the upper rungs of this ladder.

Nothing is as it seems.

Being harassed is one thing, being lied to, or having the truth purposefully omitted is another.

Pay attention. Investigate. Listen to the questions. You might just realized those who claim to know, really do not, for if they knew they would never have to ask.

Ironic …

How sometimes certain actions are steered through purposeful misleading by those who lack honor.

Celebration of the Sacred

Published December 25, 2019 by tindertender

If it’s not yet obvious to you, the real reason for this, and all seasons, is you.

A more perfect child of the Universe has never lived. Until now, only celebrations cloaked in myth and mystery could hint at your divine heritage and sacred destiny.

You are life’s prayer of becoming and its answer. The first light at the dawn of eternity, drawn from the ether, so that I might know my own depth, discover new heights, and revel in seas of blessed emotion.

A pioneer into illusion, an adventurer into the unknown, and a lifter of veils. Courageous, heroic, and exalted by legions in the unseen.
To give beyond reason, to care beyond hope, to love without limit; to reach, stretch, and dream, in spite of your fears. These are the hallmarks of divinity – traits of the immortal – your badges of honor. May you wear them with a pride as great as what we feel for you.

Your light has illuminated darkened paths, your gaze has lifted broken spirits, and already your life has changed the course of history.

This is the time of year we celebrate You.

Bowing before Greatness,

~ The Universe

Are You Ready?

Published December 24, 2019 by tindertender

Are you ready to bend to the will of others? Those who see you as ‘property’ to dispose of as they see fit? Murder, sacrifice, call it what you want, it is not of love to anything but the greed and need to control everything around them.

Are you ready to submit everything you have ever loved due to it being consider ‘sacrilege’ in their eyes, in their religion?

It is not a game. It is quite serious. And all is about to come to a head.

Who do you pledge your allegiance to?

Mine goes to Dog.

Dog has loved me faithfully, unerringly, unequivocally as time progressed. To this point, no one has loved me as purely as those who have laid at my feet in utter vulnerability, loving me despite a bad mood, loving me even when I was not perfect in my care for them.

I will fight for them with everything that I am.

Faithfully.

The Day Begins

Published December 21, 2019 by tindertender

“Cold hearted orb that rules the night

Removes the colors from our sight

Red is gray and yellow white

But we decide which is right

And which is an illusion.

Pinprick holes in a colorless sky

Let insipid figures of light pass by

The mighty light of ten thousand suns

Challenges infinity and is soon gone.

Nighttime to some, a brief interlude

To others the fear of solitude

Brave Helios, wake up your steeds

Bring the warmth the countryside needs.”

A United Creation

Published December 21, 2019 by tindertender

My participation in your story is what gives it life. Your participation in my story gives it life. We should ALL consider this very carefully.

How do you see Life?

It’s a legitimate question and statement. We are co-creating, now. ALL beings, seen and unseen.

I can choose not to co-create your story. I can choose to change my story.

My outlook, my perspective.

Ours can be an accepted union, which it is, obviously, or it can be a continuous battle.

I do not like to fight … and yet I’ve been doing it my entire life Amid brief intervals of ‘peace’. (Constructed by whom?)

Are we truly Conscious, Whole and Free? The answer for most is, no. The gilded cage of the mind is our most present reality, and home (or prison).

When we can say Yes to being Conscious, Whole and Free is the day we will be at 100%. We are One. Even you, even me.

Meditate on dissolving the bars of the gilded cage of the mind.

Since my participation gives your story life, let me see your story, fully, and I’ll show you mine. Transparency is key, to all successes

Every story that is sleazy or false falls, maybe many times. Every story that is transparent rises, even though it may appear to fall at times, just like the air … which is actually very thin water, we breathe it, or it rains.

Let us Love in the time that we have, and Create the most beautiful Story, combined.

BEING MET IS PAINFUL

Published December 20, 2019 by tindertender

Written by Maria Palumbo ~ https://mariapalumbo.com/; https://www.facebook.com/maria.palumbo.loves

Being met is not what the new age goddesses say.

It is not about flexing a muscle.

Practicing a new rule.

Being in your feminine or being mysterious.

It is not nearly as sexy as we are taught.

“Do not settle until you are met.”

No one tells you that when you are MET it will HURT.

The ego is shaken, and you will experience what it is like to truly want something.

To really be all in.

You can no longer haphazardly vaguely be involved in your life. All of a sudden you WANT and you WANT BIG.

And to want something means there is an emptiness. To hunger means you have SPACE in your body, to let it in.

A divine delicious painful hungering.

All of the rules that worked before, won’t work here.

This one LIVES OUTSIDE of the rules.

All of the games you play and the ways you hide, won’t fly.

This one is IMMOVABLE and UNSHAKABLE.

All of the stories you have taught yourself about love, no longer exist.

This person wants to write a NEW story with you.

One where you both have no idea what you are doing other than you value the PARTNERSHIP over all other things like:

  • ego
  • being right
  • looking good
  • living safely outside of needing and wanting the other

It is DANGEROUS to really need someone else. To wake up in the morning and feel a subtle unease, until you can nuzzle their neck.

It is MORE dangerous to try to keep yourself from the need (that blessed wretched aching for another). In an attempt to stay safe. To keep things simple.

Being met is not pretty.

It means all of your parts are called out. All the ugly, the true, the mean, the gentle, the perfect, the dirty, called out to be loved and seen in a way you never thought possible.

And the ugly doesn’t want to be loved. It wants to hide and become worse and grow bitter and resentful and hold onto all the old beliefs like:

“I am not good enough to be loved by someone good.”

“I will destroy anything beautiful I have.”

“No one normal will want me.”

You get to live outside all the things you told yourself about love. And create something better. Scarier. But so much better.
