I was six
years old. The sun was setting in an orange-y glow on a summer afternoon.
My father
was teaching me how to shell sunflower seeds as we sat on the driveway, after
he taught me what an 11/16 socket wrench was, to change oil on the family car.
In this
moment, he did 180 degree turn from our day, as he began talking about life.
He told me
that life is a series of both slices and shelled moments.
Some days we
would peel away the shell of what we believed we were protecting ourselves from,
‘out there’ in the world.Other days, we
would step into life’s own ‘slices of life,’ or what he referred to as vignettes.
Throughout
our journey we would have them – thousands of them.As I write this, I see that he was taking in
that driveway scene with the sun, the sunflower seeds, planting them in my head
as he removed his own shell, to reveal to me a vignette within said vignette
and that itself was its own slice of life.
While he
would die just 20 years later from that day, the seeds he planted
remained.Every time reflection takes
place, my mind’s eye sees vignettes, slices of life and sunflower seeds
sprinkled all through it.
These
thousands of vignettes are ours to cherish, learn from, behold, or do with as
we please, but the most important thing is to learn what we can from them as
they do add up to creating our perception, our choices and what we see as our
own life unfolding.
It is here
we can LINK to what matters as we break apart our wishes, our dreams, our
goals, our time, our energy, and SEE THE TRUTH of our daily grind.
This place where you may want to ask yourself the following:
·Where am I finding awareness within said
vignette?
·Who am I as a result of what I learned?
·What slice of life most defined my growth and
awareness?
·Which seed was planted within me that is still
part of my value system?
·When do I reflect most on these vignettes?
----(i.e. needing motivation, inspiration, clarity?)
·What vignette have I chosen to define my actions
and future actions?
·Why are certain slices/seeds more significant to
my evolution?
·Where will I take this next?
As you take
a moment to dive into these questions as you begin your brand new week, create
a new habit of reflection for every ‘slice of life’ you have experienced to
dissect the above list of questions.
You will
find your greatest insight and awareness growing, expanding, and broadening
your perspective on your life’s journey.
In this ‘space’
you may find hidden gems of wisdom that are unique to your pathway that can
assist you with defining what matters to you in a way that you may not have
thoroughly explored for how you want to take on life next.
My father
believed in finding wisdom in everything – even what may appear to be a silly
or stupid event, because he said that sometimes humans focus so much on what
appears to be, they miss what something is really all about unless hindsight
kicks in to show what something was really all about for the bigger picture.
So Lovely
Souls, I will leave you with that to shell, plant, peel, slice and dice however
you wish in how it applies to you, with the hope you find something that you
didn’t know was there to take into your next steps.
This morning it rained.I heard neighbors complain.
It was not the kind of rain that made everything clean – but
rather the kind of rain that rinsed off just enough dirt from the leaves of
trees to dirty the sidewalk. However, I
saw it as beauty, I saw it as light, I saw it as love and was grateful to be
able to do so.
I love the overcast skies, and the misty dew and calm
vibration underscore of the drip, drip, drip remnants slowly rolling off the
tips of leaves from the trees and plants, as birds chirped overjoyed with
gratitude for this magnificent surprise.
It’s been hot… 97 degrees, and somehow, some way – Mother Nature
knew this serenity was needed, a ‘relief’ of sorts from the intensity, even if
it made things muggy and thick. I smiled and said “Thank you, Mother Nature… I
see this purpose.”
Of course, the revving of engines, the impatient honking of
horns and alarms going off next door as my neighbor burned breakfast again, and
the leaf blower guys trying to blow wet leaves stuck to the pavement, seemed
like the polar opposite of what was happening in nature.
These folks were grumbling in ‘the thick of it.’
However, it is
because of this ‘thick, muggy air’ that we are being shown (and gifted) to find a breeze and
lightness – it is a wake-up call of sorts.
If only, a deep breath …. We can find a moment to see – that
the dirt drips on the sidewalk created a psychological “inkblot” of sorts of
beauty, one that looked like the human brain or a corn maze or whatever it is
one would imagine to punctuate all of the above that I have described. Synchronicities exist here if you take a step back from our chaotic world to see that the Universe is giving us all a 'nod' in its recognition of 'what is going on' - however, we are being reminded once more that we each can 'shift' current consciousness to change a vibration resonance even in the simplest way.
Whoa... I know... it's a lot to digest. So take a moment to digest it.
Ginger helps. Hehe.
It is here, I felt the love of this moment – a gift that I
was being presented with to see to appreciate, even if others could not pause
long enough to breath in this effect; but that I could feel urged to share
after meditation, before I go turbo gangbusters on my own day’s to do list.
We all have these loving pauses we are being given by life
itself, if we choose to take them. They
are for us to take in to have gratitude for and to lovingly share with others.
I feel nudged by Spirit to share this stuff, for those who need a little light
in their hearts, peace in their minds or reminders for their soul.
So let me ask you…
When was the last time you paused for your own daily effect?
What was the most significant simplicity of everyday life
that stopped you in your tracks to breathe in?
How did it change your mood in just one minute?
Did you take it into your day?
Where did you notice your next ‘moment’ like this?
Did it make you aware that you have this happening all of
the time when you need it?
I ask you these questions as a reflective exercise in human
curiosity- things you may not ask yourself or ponder, or you do – but you let
it be as fleeting as a few inconvenient raindrops that my may or may not appreciate
the way that you want.
This ‘out of body’ experience ‘in the moment of present
human consciousness’ has several labels and names in the metaphysical world, in
the clinical neurological world, in the spiritual space – but I like to group
it into LOVE.
Why?If we love life’s
little moments, it becomes this chain LINKED together that we can appreciate
all of the time, and from here it expands into our own gratitude, our own love,
our own way of being thankful for simply WHAT IS.
What makes this important?We come to the place of zero expectation for how things should be, but
rather take a moment to treasure how things are, because they are perfect in
that breath.
It is in this place – HUMANS feel peace, light, love and
being in said moment… and it is where all fears, doubts, worries and negative
energy cannot exist if we choose to enjoy life’s simple gifts.
Yes, I just said that… for purpose and reason beyond what
you see.
We are thrown so much information daily that is dark,
negative, and toxic. What this does to our cell system, psyche, and soul is
that it creates ‘more clean up’ of what you just spent _______XYZ amount of
time to clean up to create Zen for yourself.
It’s almost like you knitted a beautiful blanket and spent
hours creating a design, with every purposeful stitch (this is the work you
just did in healing, rising to the nextlevel and so forth that you worked on).
If you only are thrown negativity, and you are not taking in
the daily vitamin dose of the good and appreciating ‘the good’ – even in the
simple things, all of the toxic stuff builds up and is like a snag ripping out
every stitch of that beautiful blanked you knitted.
This is how humans get out of balance.This is where fear creeps in and debilitates
the human from staying on the positive track to have the courage and bravery to
keep going in the intended direction from the positive healing one just did.
So I share with you a few bird chirps, raindrops, finding
joy in simplicity of seeing love all around you as your cure, your answer in
seeing what can be appreciated in the ‘here and now’ – RIGHT NOW as it is
happening.It is needed for your
balance, your wellness, to sustain that beautiful light inside.
You deserve this. You are love. You are light. You are the
art that is created from all that is washed away and even muddied.It’s beautiful as is – like every moment as
is.
Here we are, Lovely Souls – We are in the new energy of what
IS your new normal in how you move forward with your life in a healthier way
honoring everything within yourself with 100% full acceptance. 100% love. This is called
your truthful union with yourself - merging your soul and human, with complete
acknowledgment (and forgiveness) along your pathway.
Hang on... I will explain this some more.
This "clearing" was a 'purge' of all negative
thoughts, judgment (of yourself and others), forgiveness for the duration you
carried burdens (your own, and those for others), along with toxic energies.
This also means eliminating doubts, worries, anxieties - and instead having the
trust, faith and belief revisitation of your soul's own identity. In truth - your "human" created a bunch of graffiti on your soul's pathway. This is what we had to clear for you to get to arrive back to your true self - your soul self... to get back on the soul journey in a human world, that doesn't have to be what it once was (or as you once knew it).
It is
about remembering who you truly are - capable of creating and having a
positivity-driven life instead of projecting the opposite to yourself, dragging
your spirit into a non-productive place.
Your beautiful boundaries know how to transmute negativity
into positivity for higher escalation of soul growth, and letting go of the
confines and beliefs that are NOT yours/who you truly are so that you can come
into union with your soul and human living ONE unified existence - therefore no
more 'self-battling' can occur. This 'self-battle' isn't really who you are - it is a story you create - perhaps for your own entertainment purposes, or oddly enough, your own growth 'test.' Was it the Universe testing you? Or was it YOU testing yourself to 'be sure?' Think deeply on that... you may have a magical epiphany about what I just proposed for your human to ponder as your soul says, "Come on, you know what she is saying."
You cannot go back now that you have immersed yourself in
your new reality, coming to terms with it, cleaning up what doesn’t need to be
in your ‘thought process’ any longer weighing you down. Great job!
I want to thank those of you who have messaged me with your
questions. It is exciting to have people show up 'behind the scenes' - and I do thank you for admitting you are not comfortable asking questions in the comment section. I totally RESPECT THIS and understand.
So this is why - Here I'll address a few of your questions anonymously, as you confirm within yourself what
you already know, but asked only for confirmation. Yes, did you know that I
knew that? You need to believe more in yourself to know you already have
these answers, but if it is reinforcement/validation you need, I’m happy to
reconfirm your ‘knowing.’
So here we go…
Q: What does it mean to come into
union with myself?
A:
You are ultimately only a SOUL. You are NOT your mind, you are your SOUL. The soul has its own perfect, beautiful consciousness. It is not tainted. It is wise, it 'knows.'
However, because you exist on “Planet Earth” – you have
dissected your way of being by convenient compartmentalization, all because you
adopted the belief you needed to be in ‘human’ existence way of operating in
order for your soul to survive. What happened in this process was you also adopted some horrible human habits of believing all the negative things that you actually manifested for your human. This is where you worked your human auto-pilot,
ignoring/neglecting your soul's needs only so you could function in one
dimension. Yeah, you always told yourself "I'll get to that soul
work later" - which is why The Universe threw all kinds of lessons to your
human to wake you up to do more in-depth soul searching.
Quite frankly, REAL LIVING is the other way around.
You need to HONOR YOUR SOUL and its mission in order for your human to not just
survive, but thrive. When you get your pre-conditioned ‘human
misconception’ out of the way, your SOUL can find its way to its truth of WHY
you are ideally here.
The human has an ego. The soul does not.
The human is stubborn.The soul is not.
The human always goes into defense mode.The soul does not.
The human worries about judgment, because the human
judges.The soul does not.
What does the soul do?The soul understands the difference and lives “human life” with less
self-battling, because the soul is about love. Your soul loves you. Your soul cares about you. Your soul knows you can be anything, do anything and that you are lovable, smart, and so forth.
Whereas the human nitpicks the human to the point of
self-destruction, and the destruction of others.The soul does not do this – it knows this is
counterproductive and that the 'human's misfires,' or 'crazy beliefs and fears' does not get the soul in alignment to do what it came to
do.It knows the human wastes so much
time time and energy that creates blockages for the soul.
When you come into union with YOURSELF, you can finally come
home into alignment with your destined tribe, community, purpose, soul family, the
projects that resonate, and your twin flame in order to ‘complete your mission’
of higher consciousness. Here, true resolving, dissolving of old stories, and
evolving to create new ones occurs so you can step into what is next.
Q: In many of your videos, you talk
about connecting head and heart, aren’t they separate for reason?
A:
They have a purpose. Technically, they belong to your human vessel. Remember, the human flesh puppet vessel carries your SOUL. That is truly its only purpose, to carry out things for your soul via your human. However, it is important to unite your head and heart in the ‘human
context.'
WHY? If you are too clouded to recognize that you are a solely a
SOUL, how else was I going to connect with you? It's not like I could just say to you - "you need to be at one with yourself."
You'd be like "Huh?" It just wouldn't make any sense to you unless I took your human on this journey and called it your 'self evolution.' I needed to talk to your most conscious being (human, since that's your daily operating life where you function) to get you started
to reclaim your SOUL for many who have yet to have this ‘awakening.’
By dealing with this in the fundamental human realm you
understand from a simple ‘solution-based’ place, you can get CLOSER TO YOUR
SOUL’S TRUTH, not the parroting beliefs of negativity from society, others in
your life who have tried to get you to believe toxic beliefs about yourself
that are untrue. You are not defined by your failures or success, they are
WISDOM nuggets so you can do your own return to your SOUL’s TRUTH. The
beginning of healing begins with forgiveness.Here’s an old video discussing the topic:
Q: How can I move forward into all of
these things you are asking us to do if I don’t know where it will lead?
A:There is beauty existing in all that is unknown. Take a deep breath and
digest that bold sentence. You're not supposed to know - remember, you signed up for this thing called "life," did you not? Hehe.
Okay, Lovely Souls – this question actually opens up a great
can of happy worms, as many of you are trekking in all new unfamiliar evolution
growth territory. Here, we can tackle so much more of our own process
comprehension template, to create a bridge to greater understanding.
Let’s get started addressing the journey (that belongs to the soul).
Most humans ….
·may too busy to see it.
·refuse to acknowledge it.
·do not understand it.
·like to escape from it.
·feel plagued by it.
·get lost in it.
·battle in control of it.
·don’t feel comfortable in it.
·allow it to create worry/anxiety.
·constantly search for answers about it.
Which best describes your human?
Did you circle one or several?
Let me provide comfort to your human for just a moment to
remind you that there is a LIGHT SIDE to this SHADOW SIDE of you…
What are the perks of the unknown?
·This is where creativity is born.
·Here true soul excavation can start a new journey.
·You will develop patience, strength and deeper
comprehension about yourself.
·Your real healing begins.
·All false perception and truths are revealed.
·The metamorphosis has a chance to take on a new level
of transformation that could not happened otherwise.
·You see what you are made of – and from here start to
discern from what you told yourself you wanted that would make you happy
vs. coming to terms with what you really want that you cannot
deny/backshelf/ignore where you know true happiness exists from your new
place of recognition.
“Yeah, yeah - Pfft” you may say in the same breath as you do
“Hmm….”
I know that it has been a time of your own individual
exploration of your next level evolutionary transformation. Through this
process of change that everyone is going through in deep self-reflection, it is
easy to flutter back and forth – but it is through this exercise we sift out
what is real, that has been there all along.
Ask yourself how you feel about the
unknown as a SOUL and not a human.
Are your answers DIFFERENT? This is the best way to
SEE THE DIFFERENCE.
You will discover that your higher consciousness mind and
higher self both KNOW what your human says you don’t know.
How do you know? Your dreams, your intuitive flashes,
your sudden epiphanies will intervene unexpectedly in order to guide you into
following your heart, truth, soul conviction and everything else.
Whatever your thoughts are, manifest into co-creation
reality –which is WHY you are asked to STAY POSITIVE and RISE ABOVE into UNION
WITH YOURSELF so your SOUL can know something even better than human realm of
dwelling in the reality you created there by only being conscious/mindful on
that level, neglecting your ‘other world.’
If you have been living in oblivion, or only one-foot-in
your curiosity of diving deeper into understanding your journey and yourself
better, everything you need to know is revealing itself to your soul’s higher
knowing.
If your human is fighting your soul – this is where the real
pain exists. If you have done a lot of the inner work and just need to go
that “last mile” – there are so many higher elevations of truth for you to
find, but you must reconcile with yourself to stay on the path to really make a
commitment to understand it all better.
This is where I can help if you need it, even if it is just
to answer one question to alleviate confusion on your pathway. One key
can open up the floodgates of your soul’s communication in a way that you
didn’t even know existed.
Hope that makes sense and provides clarity to those
questioning their pathway, doing the internal introspection journey of
self-discovery, deeply meditating seeing new things for the first time they do
not recognize, and hoping for a new way to deal with what is now coming to the
surface in your own realizations.
For those of you who continue to have ‘questions’ – feel
free to ask questions at the social media outlets (listed below) or go to
Linkronicity.com to go even deeper.
Thank you to those of you who have taken the time to ‘pause’
and ‘reflect.’ Being brave enough to continue to warrior through this crazy
jungle terrain, I know has not been an easy trek for you. However, take
stock in knowing that this commitment you have made to your life to understand
something with greater reward IS your promise in the light of your beautiful,
brilliant new future.
