LINKING TO THE WHOLE POINT OF YOUR LIFE

 


There are several humans with leaf blowers outside.  It is not autumn just yet, but leaves are dropping as if the season has already arrived.  

While the trees are not sensing that marketers are already planning to push the upcoming pumpkin spice fill-in-the-blank frenzy early, the California drought, high temps and such have created parched trees with the leaves falling away in massive quantities.

Yet, like all of Mother Nature aligning with the Cosmos, there is a thickness in the air that apparently appears to be right on time.

Several things are happening in the Universe right now pushing all of us a few degrees off-kilter, but it is for a purpose we may not yet understand, which ultimately is for purpose also.

If we were able to see too many things in advance, it may change our free will, further pushing us off the trajectory of change. Yet nature seems to know that is already happening, with things in motion and a quiet movement that at times for the impatient go-getters of the world feeling as if coffee isn’t kicking in.  Though, rest assured it is…. And with that a low-grade fever-like pitch of movement.

I was urged from the Divine to blog without answer, without remedy or solution to address this funky lull that the collective is feeling.  I asked “Why waste space doing this without some sort of end point?”

To my surprise, I was told “Because that is the point and people have to ‘get it’ as the point, they’re all so focused on immediate gratification, they’ve missed the point, the world has become impatient, needing instant answers and that is why they’re missing the point that is even grander than that point itself…. See the point?”

Whoa. Okay.  So I am being called to blog about this to make that point be the whole point of this blog and it is, as one of my dearest friends from the 90s would say, ‘deeper than deep’…… and eureka, that is also the point.

For eons, diving this deeply has been a point of apparent no return – it is infinite, it is universal, it is like exploring the ethers forever as the energy we are, yet it is the human that has the ‘need’ to ‘know’ when the soul energy already knows.

The bigger question would be why humans question from the place of doubt in the first place?

Why would having said answer actually change the outcome of what is already destined anyway?

While free will is always an option, the reality is what is meant for us to experience from the initial call of what we called in won’t ever leave us, rather it is carried over time and time again over the lifetimes until it is experienced.  Perhaps it comes in a different package or form, or unexpectedly in a way we could not have fathomed, yet it is there.

It is there much like the leaves on said trees that fall away and grow back again, fall away and get blown away by human leaf blowers or the wind.  Yet, the leaves keep returning in one form or another as a green new experience or a dead brown one resurfacing on our driveway of life to revisit.  Yet no matter how much we try to blow it away, it will return until we’ve dealt with it.

This is something humans often miss or choose to not want to understand or see.  

Did you know THAT IS FOR PURPOSE as well?  

The Universe is funny that way, even when we believe it is not amusing at the time dead leaves show up – but again, that is also another ‘point.’ 

Sometimes we are actually being asked “Are you sure?”

It’s like when you rake leaves, then a gust of wind comes and returns them to the same spot again.

The human default would be “Ugh, I have to do this again.”

But the reality is “Wow, I get to do this again.”

We call this ‘course correction.’   That tiny perception shift can actually change the course revisiting something – because perhaps we missed something, or hastily dismissed something, or left remnant energy there when a decision was made from a reactive emotional place rather than a calm, Zen-like assured place.  

Sometimes the leaves return for final closure as well, or sometimes they just show up to make sure that we’ve actually let something go.  In other words the human believed there was finality, but didn’t heal properly from said situation, so the leaf blows back again to get things cleared with assuredness and proper intention.

If you are having an ‘ah-ha’ moment right now, the Universe is actually laughing at you in amusement because you thought when you started reading this - that this was just a dumb blog about leaf blowers, when in fact it is about linking to the whole point of life.

This is why I was called upon by the Divine to blog – when initially, I didn’t believe there was a whole point to it, but like typical channeling I do, the Universe always has a plan, a purpose and dare I say ‘point’ to everything… even when I didn’t think there was a point.  

The Universe laughs and says “Oh, dear child – the whole point will be shown in Divine Time – just do what we’re telling you and it will show up – as if by a miracle.  Here, suddenly, unexpectedly, the point itself will be known, even when you believe you don’t know what the point is in what we’re having you do.”

Funny and ironic.  Such is life.

I am being told that ‘the collective” is questioning life and life’s point.  You may think you’re on some hamster wheel to nowhere or pondering mortality or looking at the state of where our world is, unable to see the forest for the trees.  

However, that is also the point beyond the actual wake-up call or ‘awakening’ or realization of how one’s state of mind can also have a point to point you in an actual new direction away from said thinking to see things differently as well.

Sometimes life will bring you to the point to actually ask you to change your perception if you are unhappy with what it is you are thinking, feeling, doing or believing which may have to actually do with the number of dead leaves vs. alive ones and how you are navigating through your life’s clean-up, your issues, unfinished business, etc.

So for those of you needing the whole point of this, don’t forget that there is a point to everything in every moment, even when you can’t see what is happening, and that includes both the human and nature’s own leaf blower of life showing up in the wrong season.

Don’t get too attached to what is falling away, as it will return as needed if left unfinished, just as much as something new will grow in its place, like a new opportunity to literally grow in ways you didn’t expect.  Again – THAT is also the whole point of your life as well.

As you know from watching my videos when I channel, much of what comes is out of my control.  The Universe understands collective energy and so the point of all of this is to know that if you are experiencing something, there is a purpose and point, a reason and season under the heavens.

If you happen to stumble upon an unexpected leaf turning over, or headed your direction – don’t be surprised if it literally points you in the direction like a compass to the point of your own life.

Blessings to you, Lovely Souls.

Namaste.

MY LIFE-CHANGING LINK TO OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN, R.I.P.

 

By Stacey Kumagai

 

Well, I just saw the news break and in an instant my heart sank.

Sitting here numb and broken, sad and yet still inspired, grateful and lost and yet empowered - I am scrambling with my feelings to make sense of timing.

I am saddened by the death of Olivia Newton-John as she was one of the earliest vocalists I listened to in my life in crossover genre between radio stations in my youth.

Little did I know, I would have the great honor and privilege of working with this woman, not just once but twice all via the Susan G. Komen Foundation. https://mediamonstercommunications.com/about

Thus, this loss feels personal to me in ways that go beyond what my words can find to articulate eloquently in this present moment.

When I was a child entrepreneur, I used to take my earnings from lemonade stands, bake sales, being a baton twirling teacher to kids in my neighborhood and buy records.

"Let Me Be There," “Please Mr. Please” and “If You Love Me Let me Know” were 45s that came with a photo slip cover.  I was excited to be able to play these songs on my record player at a whim, anytime I wanted rather than merely waiting for the rotation on pop or country radio.

I had ‘downloaded’ a premonition as a child from the Divine that I would meet and work with this amazing woman, but not in the realm most people would.  I wasn’t sure at the time that this was real – questioning my spiritual realm connection, and just gleefully kept playing records on repeat happy that I had childhood jobs to pay for my addiction to music of all genres. 

There was an 'almost' time... when I was working in the fashion industry and Olivia had her Koala Blue line.  But the Universe said, "No... not here, not this way" - and I heard this and just kept doing the work in front of me.  When I left the fashion industry commentating and modeling, I went into broadcasting.

My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, at the same time she was battling Alzheimer’s and suddenly I was thrust into getting newsletters and gathering information on the breast cancer journey.

At this time, after my father had passed, I was truly lost - feeling alone in how to help my mother battle both things. None of my friends had older parents, none of them were ill or battling things and my support circle was very non-existent at this time.

But because of Olivia's work with all of her breast cancer advocacy and support - I suddenly did not feel alone.  I actually felt as if someone understood and she reminded everyone fighting this battle and the families supporting said battles, it was okay to carry on and keep going, understanding the bigger picture of the gift that each day in a life brings. 

THIS FOREVER CHANGED ME. 

As I was working a career in broadcasting and in PR simultaneously, coming off my broadcast affiliate relations position at a music production company, I would have my first encounter with Ms. Newton-John via L.A. Breast Cancer Alliance in my PR work for the first inaugural Wango Tango Concert benefit via 102.7 KIIS-FM in 1998.

I briefly wrote about this encounter in 2017 – not the way I had expected to meet her…

https://linkronicity.blogspot.com/2017/08/linking-to-synchronization.html

Olivia had been one of the earliest performing advocates to use her voice, her very own personal journey and active support ‘having walked in said shoes’ to use her platform and outreach to others.  She was always a person who walked her talk in being the pillar of strength and model example of keeping up the fight repeatedly, even when cancer came back and she fought again and again.

Somehow, some way, her inspiration gave me the strength to support my own mother through her mastectomy and in her battle with breast cancer, she actually gave me HOPE – which is one of the most powerful things to have when challenged, wondering all the ‘what ifs’ in life.

I wrote about my mother’s breast cancer battle and working with other clients specifically fighting their own breast cancer fight (and ultimate twelve year remission):

This pathway has always been part of my journey – somehow, working and crossing paths unexpectedly while doing work for the greater good has brought forth blessings, validations and reminders to stay on one’s course.

Olivia’s constant fight and inspiration has bonded millions of women and her purposeful journey is a reminder to all of us that life is short, the Divine’s plan is multifaceted and one never knows just how much impact they leave behind until the void is felt.

My second chance to work with Olivia again came by way of my being a Publicist for a concert venue designed for non-profits to be benefactors from live concerts.

 




This time Olivia and George Barris’ Greased Lightning car were involved and Susan G. Komen was the benefactor.

Olivia was an artist and used her talents to raise awareness.

She was an advocate and she was an inspirer by sharing her own journey.

While millions will remember her music, her movies, her TV appearances, her concerts and videos – I believe those of us who have been fortunate to know her work with breast cancer awareness will forever be grateful for her voice.  She reminded all of us that we are on this human journey together and we will forever have an opportunity to take our own adversity forward in the name of our loved ones and ourselves to amplify said causes and use our voices for good.

This is the magnitude of Olivia Newton-John’s impact and I am forever changed by this unexpected LINK to this amazing warrior woman who fought hard along her own journey in the name of helping others as she herself kept up her own battle.

Thank you, Olivia Newton-John.   Safe journey, safe passage and on this 8-8 Lion’s Gate powerful infinite energy – may you know that your impact is infinite and eternal and we are forever grateful for all you have done in your advocacy and vulnerability in sharing your story with us to ensure that none of us feel alone.

Blessings, Peace, Love & the brightest LIGHT, dear Angelic One.

Namaste.
