As I sit here writing this, I’m reminded of a scene from What Dreams May Come .   You know the one, where Robin Williams’ character finds his wife who just committed suicide?   Like that character, I fought my way through "heaven" in order to be with people who made it painfully obvious they wanted nothing to do with me.   Like the wife, they are emotionally damaged, choosing to live their lives as a victim, creating their own special kind of hell in which to dwell.   Then here I come fighting all of heaven to join them.  Yea, imagine that someone would choose hell over heaven just to be with miserable, selfish assholes!      Crazy.  I know! Hell is a place I no longer wish to be.     So I say a final farewell to all those who rather live in misery and be a victim!  Who would rather wallow in the depths of despair in Hell than enjoy the splendors of Heaven. *~*~*~*~*~* ...

 "The act of forgiveness is not the condoning of any action that causes pain, it is the refusal to carry the pain inflicted by that action." ~Grandmother to The Oracle, Children of the Luminaries: Book III~The Day of Reckoning Long ago, when I had asked about forgiveness, the answer I received was simplistic in nature. Though it is nothing new, the message bears repeating. When we forgive, we are not condoning the action that caused us pain.  On the contrary! When we forgive -- we are in refusing to carry any and all pain inflicted by that action . A Hard Habit To Break  As human experiencers, we develop a wide variety of habits. No greater habit have any of us than the holding on to pain. It doesn't matter how long ago it was inflicted, it doesn't matter how far we have come in our conscious awareness ... our habit of holding on to our pain is ever present.  It is a habit that we hold near & dear to our collective hearts.  We hold on to our...

How many of you expressing "We Are One" are willing to accept into your fold those who are historically deemed as "evil" ?    Individuals such as Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Mussilini, Adolf Hitler ... to name a few.  More recently ... BP Oil?  Your present government leaders? How many of you claiming enlightenment are open to embracing these(and others like them) with open arms and pouring out the love you so readily give to those of like mind? Easy is it to give your love and attention to those who you perceive as worthy. But again I ask ... what of those you (as a whole) ... see as "unworthy"? Do you believe that your hatred, your angst and your prejudice against these is justified?  That  it is perfectly alright to feel these things and perpetuate the energies of these?  Do you believe that your feelings, your expressions of these feelings are any less an act of evil than the acts these (and others) have committed? If ...

Well, another year has come and gone.  And what a year it has been, eh?   Is it me or does it seem that time is just speeding by like a bullet?  Appears that way, doesn't it? As with every year, we said good-bye to those we knew and loved in some way, on some level,  while welcoming in new friends and family members, reuniting with lost loves, reconnecting with those we had lost touch with and so on. For me 2009 was a year of intense awakening.  While I have been on this path of awakening for what seems like eons, it was 2009 that brought about the spiritual caffeine that really jolted me into a more awakened state.   However, I wish to state that my personal expansion in conscious awareness during 2009 was different some how.  It was definitely unlike anything I had experienced in the past. To make a rather long story short, I made some rather intense changes within myself.   I faced my worst night mares ... My SELF!...
