A friend of mine has a great saying, 'You never see a funeral hearse pulling a U-Haul.'
If we can't take it with us, why do we spend so much time trying to keep it, worry about it, and pass it along after we die? Why are we killing each other for it? Are we so willing in America to let a fascist group of thugs who stole all the elections take over our country as long as they let us live “the good life” collecting things we don't really need? Are we so willing to turn on each other in fear and anger over what's happened to our country?
The most important thing you can pursue is honest LOVE. Simple word, isn't it? Difficult to truly understand the meaning, and for some, impossible to act in the spirit of love. Why is this so important? The following statement made by the Elders of the Hopi Nation says it a whole lot better than I ever could:
The Elders, Oraibi, Arizona Hopi Nation
You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour.
Now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour.
And there are things to be considered:
Where are you living?
What are you doing?
What are your relationships?
Are you in right relation?
Where is your water?
Know your garden.
It is time to speak your Truth.
Create your community.
Be good to each other.
And do not look outside yourself for the leader.
This could be a good time!
There is a river flowing now very fast.
It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid.
They will try to hold on to the shore.
They will feel they are being torn apart, and they will suffer greatly.
Know the river has its destination.
The elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open, and our heads above the water.
See who is in there with you and celebrate.
The trick to life is how to walk with balance.
At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally.
Least of all, ourselves.
For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.
The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves!
Banish the word 'struggle' from your attitude and your vocabulary.
All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
We are the ones we've been waiting for.
Did you catch that last phrase? WE ARE THE ONES WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR! Let me say it again:
WE . . . ARE . . . THE . . . ONES . . . WE . . . HAVE . . . BEEN . . . WAITING . . . FOR!
NO-ONE is coming to rescue us. It is up to us to change our energy vibrations to levels of love, joy, peace and kindness. It's not coming from some long dead leader from anyone's religion coming back to lead us out of our misery—that we created for ourselves, I might add.
The trick to life is how to walk with balance. I know, I know, you've heard this a million times from every guru on the planet, but think about it. How do you act on things that need to be taken care of without losing yourself or turning into a 'fanatic' like the over-zealous dark beings you are trying to not imitate? Extremism in any form is not healthy for anyone. And you don't have to become a hermit surrounded by canned beans and weapons. That won't help anyway, trust me.
Millions of us are coming together now in spirit and common ground to elevate our energy to the highest levels possible. Here are a few things you can do for you and your loved ones:
1. TURN THE DAMN TELEVISION OFF! (I can't stress this enough. It's filled with everything the leads you away from your true spirit.)
2. Listen to calm, happy music without words. (Words stir too much emotion and keep you from hearing your own higher self talking)
3. Spend as much time as possible with the people you love. Stay 'up', happy and positive as much as possible.
