Get it!!!!
My daughter handed me her school progress report. Although it displayed a steady stream of positive check marks, there was one check mark standing dejectedly alone from the rest.
“How am I doing, Mom?” my child asked with a level of maturity that did not match the small dishevelled person gazing up at me with smudged eyeglasses that teetered on the tip of her nose. With her small finger, she pointed to her teacher’s neatly printed words next to the lone check mark.
It read: “Distracted in large groups.” But I already knew this. I knew this long before it was written on an official report card. Since she was a toddler, this child has offered astute observations of the world around her.
After pointing out all the positives on the progress report, I told her what was written. Upon hearing the news, she gave a tiny, uncertain smile and shyly admitted, “I do look around a lot.”
But before my child could feel one ounce of shame, one iota of failure, I came down on bended knee and looked her straight in the eye. I didn’t want her to just hear these words, I wanted her to feel them. This is what I said:
“Yes. You do look around a lot. You noticed Sam sitting off by himself with a skinned knee on the field trip, and you comforted him.”
“You noticed Banjo had a running nose, and the vet said it was a good thing we brought him in when we did.”
“You noticed our waitress was working really hard and suggested we leave an extra good tip. You noticed Grandpa was walking slower than the rest of us so you waited for him.”
“You notice the beautiful view every time we cross the bridge to go to swim practice.”
“And you know what? I don’t ever want you to stop noticing because that is your gift. It is your gift that you give to the world.”
As I watched my daughter beam with the glow of acceptance, I realized her approach to life had the power to change the world.
You see, we are all just waiting for someone to notice—notice our pain, notice our scars, notice our fear, notice our joy, notice our triumphs, notice our courage.
And the one who notices is a rare and beautiful gift.

“Every man is a Divinity in disguise, a god playing a fool.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emmerson
“I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my soul.” ~ Rumi
“In other words, the sum-total of all the outward guidance of the world doesn’t hold a candle to the wisdom of the guiding force within you. Remember you’re at one with the One. Open your heart to the divine within you. When you open your mouth to speak, allow this higher perspective to express through you.” ~ The Hero’s Journey, Dream Oracle
Mantra ::
I trust the wisdom of my higher self, and follow it, step by step, toward higher ground.
Remember: Their response/reaction “to you” WILL affect everyone else. How do you choose to steer this?
How far do you suppose the human essence can expand outward, remaining intact, while touching everything?
Beyond our planet to others? Maybe even beyond that?
“I Am a connector of Worlds.”
Another world, another form, another density.
I don’t need to know the mechanics of it. It will move as one.
We all get a chance to “create” our surroundings. Peoples response to you WILL affect everyone else there in some fashion or other.
What surroundings are you wishing to spend time in? How will you interact with people in order to gain responses which will affect your surroundings in peace and joy and laughter? Even Love.
Pure, simple, no agenda but family … Love, Honor and Respect.
Every action gains a reaction. If the energy is used for negative, that is the echo, the reverberation, the response which will affect everything which surrounds the Doer, therefore forming the world the Doer creates for themselves.
Same as opposite. Energy used to create a positive response echoes, affects all others present, creating the reality of the Doer.
In dreamland, Spirit informed me that there are “gates” within the body. I woke, remembering only the one in the feet.
I began thinking of the vital force that runs through our bodies. Life is symbiotic. Mother Earth has her energy, but it is meant to be a symbiotic relationship, a give and take.
When we began using shoes with rubber soles, we disconnected our vital force from Mother Earth. We are no longer feeding into her, or being fed by her, through the gate of the feet. Also, she doesn’t receive the higher connections which are meant to flow through us.
This is important.
It’s about the vital life force connections.
Higher(heaven) lower (earth) connected by the transmitter receiver (human).
We are suffering.
The earth is suffering.
We need to figure out a footwear that allows us to remain connected to, in harmony with, and in symbiosis with, the health and well-being of Mother Earth.
Today, I wear nothing but socks … until I go get my doggie his food.
Thank you Spirit. I am grateful you are here. I will learn about these gates and how to seal them up from intruders.
Do you know Jezebel spirits, the spirit of Leviathan and others enter these gates … they crowd our mind, they syphon our energies, they “plant” energies that aren’t ours, they ”plant” thought forms, and upset the nervous system to cause terrible reactions.
Dark, manipulative spirits use these gates to affect our relationship with each other, to cause turmoil and suffering.
We must learn about these gates and how to protect them from infiltration.
Don’t you find it interesting that the man given task of injecting the bioform with unknown, harmful substances is named “gates”?
Stop giving access of your vital force to these ones.
Learn.
Research.
Grow.
Expand.
Develop the tools needed to stand firm against spiritual intrusion/invasion.

There is a reason behind infidelity.
There is a reason behind the envy, jealousy, and hate.
Stop blaming each other and figure out where the influence is coming from, and move against THAT.
All the chaos you see in the world right now is just a projection of the collective mind.
The controllers fill the mind with “entertainment” splitting the consciousness to all 4 directions of the worlds (news: north, south, east, west) and fragments the mental energy. Wrapped in the emotion of horror, it amplifies and creates the chaos, the “controllers” want you to manifest, through YOUR awareness. Directed by the mind of humanity.
Stop feeding into the beast.
Stop allowing the beast to feed into you, dragging your mind, here there and everywhere but where it should be.
Stay centered.
Focus.
Balance.
You try to hold me down so I became a soldier
Built up all theses walls and now I’m climbing over
Those nasty bees are tempting me
Oh Lord! but I ain’t going back
You take me for a fool (fool), that doesn’t make me foolish
Told me I was wrong (wrong), passion made you ruthless
Manipulate, It’s just too late
Oh lord! ’cause I ain’t going back no more
Your fueling of the flames gonna show you what I’m made of
Breakin’ every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn’t change but I grew on you
‘Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn’t do without you
Make it hard to leave you think It’s all about you
You know I’ll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
I tried to get this weight off of my shoulders
Built up all my strength I’m finally taking over
Complicate, I don’t appreciate
Oh lord! ’cause I ain’t going back no more
Your fueling of the flames gonna show you what I’m made of
Breakin’ every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn’t change but I grew on you
‘Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn’t do without you
Make it hard to leave you think It’s all about you
You know I’ll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive
Keeping me alive
This fire (this fire), this fire (Is keeping me alive)
Breakin’ me, shakin’ me, shapin’ me into what I never wanted, oh
Breakin’ me, shakin’ me makin’ my beatin’ heart a little stronger
Stronger, strong baby
Breakin’ every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn’t change but I grew on you
‘Cause I will never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Breakin’ every chain that you put on me
You thought I wouldn’t change but I grew on you
‘Cause I would never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Making me believe I couldn’t do without you
Make it hard to leave you think It’s all about you
You know I’ll never be what you wanted
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive
Keeping me alive, keeping me alive
This fire (this fire), this fire
Is keeping me alive

Striving to see tranquillity and peace expressed, also simplicity, and great strength and nobility of spirit. Seeking calm confidence to share with those that are confused or unhappy. Inner life of prayer and striving affects the thoughts and souls of many others … no longer living for self. I will accept and be thankful for my life, and know that at the right time the way will be shown to me.
Today I offer my thoughts, and those I read and observe.
When we judge others according to our beliefs of how good and honorable people should act, we condemn ourselves and prove to be that which we speak against. So painfully obvious and yet when we are so close to it, living this behavior personally (and we all do at times) it seems to escape our perception. So, that being said, I ask Spirit/God/Universal Wisdom, to make me aware of the times I slip into this attitude and bring me back to love. Amen.
Remaining open-hearted is the most courageous thing you can do. So many people will do their best to tear it out of your chest, to crush it, to convince you it isn’t worthy of their best intentions … stay open to love anyway, stay soft … but you will grow in a special kind of fierceness, a gift. For keeping love alive.
Unchain your power
Fall into the river of love
That is the current of your own soul.
~ Clare Dubois, from The Courage to Shine
Doing the inner work and healing isn’t a fleeting thing, it’s a habitual pattern, a practice, a characteristic of the Self. It’s not flashy or loud. Invisible even, it can seem. Some like to show off their “skills” but have no healing journey “history” to back it up.
Alchemy. How do we change the world? It begins with inner alchemy. Alter your language, alter your thoughts. Mixing this delicious future takes care, and a meticulous action.
The question we should be asking ourselves is: Do we stand for continued life on this planet? Or do we stand for the destruction of it? It really is a very simple and straight forward question.
“Because they are seeing, they see not; and hearing, they hear not; neither do they understand the voice of heaven.” – Matthew 13.13
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens can change the world;
indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.
~ Margaret Mead
Sometimes, you just have to say, “No. You’re a bad parent. I have fired you.”
Whether it be an actual parent, an employer, or a lover … if they think it is okay for another to abuse you, but threaten you when you stand up for yourself, for all that is Holy in You, kick them out of your fields.
That doesn’t mean to quit, to move out, to rampage.
It means take a step back, emotionally, energetically. Cut the cord. Maintain your balance, and when the time is right, remove yourself.
Don’t act in haste.
Retain control.
You don’t want to cause unnecessary chaos.
Create change according to your own timing and will. You have what it takes to command the situation, gently. Release the need to be rigid. Release the need to be right.
Just flow into the change your inner self is generating.
The key is to flow into the shift before the Universe has to tear your world apart.
