A Strong Finish Makes Way for a Stellar Beginning

A simple and quite lovely truth – it is a magnificent time to be Alive! To live in the vibration of that simple truth is a choice. For the remainder of this year, it is crucial to remain in/return to that frequency as much as we possibly can.

Late November and December are ALWAYS filled with concepts about things we have to do/should do/always do/enjoy or cherish doing (even the old – would rather not do but do it anyway), etc. Let this year be what it has been all along – different. Let it be magical and creative and new in as many ways as you can possibly imagine. WE DECIDE if it is a great time to be alive … spoiler alert – IT IS A MAGNIFICENT TIME TO BE ALIVE!!!!!! Many wonders await us in the VERY near future. Perhaps a fresh approach to this busy time of year will do us ALL well!

There is a real temptation to be drawn into the concept of focusing on so many things we cannot do for the remainder of the year. That is a choice. There is another layer, another perspective, another dimension to consider… and that is rather personal for us all, depending on how we’re looking at the world right now and what reality fits for each of us. At the same time, a collective approach would do us well in more ways than some can yet imagine. An excited to be Alive and looking with fresh eyes approach will do us All well!

It can be challenging if we allow it to be as we come together while all feeling so different about all that we’ve been through in so many various ways, yet all in it just the same – together. May those challenges be turned away from as we turn towards the joy we can choose and the creativity we can tap into to make this time as special as it can be. We create the rest of the year – let’s do it well! LOVE in the form of Creativity and Joy will change the world!

There are 39 days left in the year. Whatever we choose to do with them, may they be filled with the ability to look with FRESH EYES that allow us to feel the Tingle of Life run through our senses…and beyond! 

Below is a link to a post I wrote in 2014 called Fresh Eyes. This brought me so much Love, heart expansion and fresh perspective today that I wanted to share it with you! Sent with Love!

Your Light

There is one beautiful constant and consistent blessing found in all of the interesting challenges/circumstances/opportunities in and of 2020 – the push/nudge/impetus to go within. When everything “without” (external) appears the way 2020 has appeared, there is nowhere else to go – and what a blessing that is! If that “nudge” has been or can become your experience/constant companion, then that would make 2020 the greatest possible blessing – to serve to lead us to what we hold within. 

By creating such a chaotic “environment” in the external around us, 2020 has excelled at pushing us to continuously ‘level up’ how we connect with what we can only find within. This entire year has been saturated with an absolute overload of double speak, contradictory “information” and division for a multitude of reasons whenever and wherever we look outside of ourselves – but not when we look within.

I recently found a draft I wrote nearly 6 years ago and never shared titled “The Universe Isn’t Trying to Annoy You – It’s Trying to Wake You Up” … I laughed when I saw it because that was 6 years ago – when it could be mistaken for “annoying” – we’re far beyond annoying at this point. The Universe always starts with a feeling, then a whisper, then a direct message, and from there it keeps elevating until it has to hit you over the head… but it keeps communicating and giving you the message in whatever way you insist – you can listen at the whisper or ask it for more – it’s always a choice. Personally, I enjoy listening to the feeling – it’s so gentle and delicate and beautifully detailed and it feels like co-creating that way – it has mystery and creation at the forefront rather than anything off-putting or too unpleasant and it becomes this trusting beautiful relationship that no words could possibly describe. Whatever relationship you have with the Universe – that is the relationship you have with Yourself… after all – you ARE the Universe. 

This year is serving as a collective wake up call for us All. We may all be at various levels along that journey, but, we’re All on that journey in our own perfectly unique way. Listen deeply to what You have to say to Yourself. Do whatever it takes to quiet the external and let the Light shine bright from within so that You may understand it and shine it ever more bright for the world to see. The world needs your specific Light now more than ever and You need it too. Now is the time. It is happening. Just like when you arrive at your home after dark, you turn the lights on. We ARE turning the Lights on and our Lights will lead us home. The world will never be the same. A world filled with information (Light) from Source will change, and is changing, everything. Imagine what miracles await a world that has been blessed with a clear wake up call for All. A new dawn is emerging and we have so much in store for us. We can trust that the Universe wouldn’t go to all of this trouble for just another day. This is a truly miraculous time to be alive. Let’s get clear from the inside – looking for the Light and Listening to what the Soul is telling us – so that we may be ready and excited to Live this adventure well!

Wishing us All that beautiful Knowing from a place deep within that passes all understanding, eases all anxieties, wipes away all lower vibrations and spreads Love, peace and unity wherever we lay our attention and beyond. I love you!

Never The Same – BETTER!

Sacred not sterile!
Beauty in All things!

When our eyes are graced with wonder, the world reveals its wonders to us. There are people who see only dullness in the world and that is because their eyes have already been dulled. So much depends on how we look at things. The quality of our looking determines what we come to see.

John O’Donohue, Beauty: The Invisible Embrace

You can be-2

The holy instant the news of the California lockdown/stay at home order entered my reality (months ago now)… I knew I would never be the same… that very instant.

[It is worth noting that it isn’t about staying home – that is something I do well and have done so by design for many years… it’s about much much more than that.]

Upon hearing the order, my Soul had a visceral and intense reaction felt in my body and beyond… in a hard to explain way… it physically hurt to live in a world where the illusion of separation was being forced on us in such a strange and new way and I knew instantly that something nefarious was at work. The powers that be have always loved to divide and separate us in a multitude of ways… but this physical 6-foot thing was just ludicrous to me and seemed to suffocate my Soul in ways I cannot possibly describe. The idea of people being weaponized in each other’s minds,  the thought of people entering hospitals alone, without their loved ones, the complete disregard for the many miraculous ways we are All connected to one another (seen and unseen), the utter disregard for one’s choices on life and death – the loss of sacredness of life/birth and death/passing (as they attempt to replace it with sterility), the fear (rather than truth of how amazing our bodies really are) being instilled rapidly and dangerously into the collective… the blatant lie being touted that we can be separate… there just are no words really… just… … … [this would be too long to say all I really feel] …

So, I got busy for a few days with various projects, creating an array of things to busy the mind… but the thoughts still crept in… I wondered about humanity and how others would be handling this and/or what they may be thinking about or doing to process it all. I realized that people would probably just entrench themselves deeper into whatever point of view or stance they already had… so, perhaps, if you always believe what the government tells you then you just do so even more now, if you blame the left or right for everything then probably even more so, if you trust the news, if you question everything, question nothing, seek truth, keep a closed mind, keep an open mind, etc., etc., etc., … whatever you are used to/comfortable doing would just be done even more so now… I thought that would be the case in those early days… but, we are well beyond a few weeks now, and I would very much like to hope for more from and for humanity now. Sometimes things are meant to change us – deeply.

Honestly, I couldn’t have come even close to imagining the actual changes I would go through during this time, or how true the knowing that I was instantly and forever changed had been. Many years back, I had my eyes opened to a few very important lies we were being fed about the food we eat/nutrition, health/medicine, illness/wellness and much more and I began to expand my own vision for a life well lived, etc. That led to many changes and several roads less traveled that I hadn’t ever pictured myself on before (to say the least). But, I sort of considered those lies or untruths I had uncovered to be innocent enough and perpetuated on us simply because they didn’t know any better at the time, etc. I didn’t focus on the root or cause/intentions. I focused only on the solutions, knowing and choosing to live in the manner that understands that whatever I focus on expands, etc. I wanted to expand the best of Life!

Awakening has been on my radar for quite some time now… just in other ways than the recent eye opening ways I had not yet considered. I was so intentionally focused on the light for so long that I would not look at the darkness. Well, now I have, and I am not one to dabble (not at all), so it’s been a dark night of the soul mixed with rounds and rounds and layers and layers of reckoning and piecing puzzles together, etc.

The truth is out there… seekers will find it…

It is also within us…

It only lives within us!!!

I am really not one to focus too much of my energy in an effort to convince or cajole others into seeing things the way I do… I’m more into inspiration, spark ignition, encouragement, love, great conversations, letting the writing come through and sending it out in love, etc. …I know that people can only see through the veil of their own looking and just exactly what they are ready for…

We are in extremely interesting times and we are here witnessing it, not by accident, but, by design. My understanding of my purpose in all of this is still making itself known to me as I continue to decipher things in ways that make sense to me and deepen my innerstanding of what it means to be here. For me, I gather and gather and gather, always taking time to ask and lean back and allow space for illumination, and, as I go, I co-create and inhabit a sort of hybrid that feels like truth for me/All – always keeping an open heart and mind and spirit that will allow for expansion and/or correction, etc.

If you’re still reading at this point, maybe you’re looking for a little nudge because you know there is so much more… so, here it is…

open your eyes a bit wider

make your heart a bit warmer

focus so your vision may become a bit clearer

expand your knowing so that you may live it

raise your vibration

all these things, done, in some way that makes sense for your highest good and that of the collective… we will inhabit the world we envision for ourselves…this illusion of a disgusting, sick, separate, sterile, disconnected world they are trying to force on us simply won’t do… it will crumble. We must envision more and then go there together!

The great awakening!

We are a collective!

Love wins!

I Am.

As we learn and grow, our reality shifts and shapes around us. It is nothing short of a miracle! How exciting! Let’s think of it and see it that way. Let’s go! Sending you love and joy and the absolute refusal to allow fear near you in any way, shape or form!!!!
