I feel that as each of us in this world finds our way to the "calm center" in the midst of the Storms, the Doors to Lasting Peace will be opened.

There will be a Shift:

a shift in focus from the alienation we feel from world events and their instigators....

to the distance we perceive between ourselves and our family members....

to the concern we feel about our eternal relationships....

and, finally, more deeply, to the pain we continue to Endure....

the Cause of which when correctly perceived is the separation from those we Love/have Loved.

And....this Separation from Others, at its Core, is Separation from our greater Self.

I, like every other human being, am often nearly caught up in these Branches which rise up from the Dark waters of the Unknown. 

But even when we swim in the Darkness we can notice around us... the Stillness beneath the Surface. 

We can quiet ourselves and notice that we are still Breathing.

We can Look and we can Listen as we move through the Silence there.

We are at Peace when we remember our true Home. 

And....it is in letting go of clinging....to our suffering....which is the key to that Door. 

This has Been and Always Will Be the Key...

All things on Earth will pass away, but He/She/I is Eternal and Unchanging.... 

He/She/I says, I am the Way....and when we Believe it, we find that all that we have wished for....

is There, in our Hearts....all along.


love, blink

Hi blink,

It's the most amazing thing, but I think I'm already seeing this starting to happen.

I read some channeling supposedly from Archangel Michael a few days ago where he was talking about "2007 being the year of the emergence of universal love on Earth."

When you read this sort of thing, your first thought is to immediately be enormously cynical...it's the sort of thing the Interpreter in most of us has a field day with.  Poor old Celia Finn (the channel) must have blown a fuse.  Complete BS...right?

Yet on YouTube in particular I'm noticing a degree of compassion and general positivity among people that I've never really known before, and also, without it being overly negative in most cases, a refusal to tolerate the few individuals who still do make hateful comments.  It's a subtle thing, to be sure...but it's a general feeling of enormous calm, pink/violet compassion, and optimism, with a degree of depth to it that I've never felt among such a large group of people before.

Obviously the world still isn't perfect...the war in the Iraq is ongoing, and George W. Bush is still in office, among other various terrible things...but I still do feel as though there is a background level of PUL which is slowly, quietly rising to a level that is normally completely unheard of in the world as well.  It's going to be interesting to see where it goes.

Great post blink.

I also read somewhere about a 2012 galactic alignment that was suppose to occur between our sun and the center point of our galaxy, (which is an extremely large blackhole). This cosmic event is alleged to bring about a positive energy shift in human consciousness.

There must be a vibrational shift which occurs between such a massive alignment and the conscious energy fields therein.

PUL,

P.S. That was very punny of you Dave!

So what are you all saying what things do you expect to happen?

That's lovely Blink 

I say it's .. The Age of Aquarius ..

While we are all posting lyrics.
Heres a song describing humanity as we know it today.  Hopefully the shift will change this reality.

Given Flight By Demon's Wings

this is not my true nature.
i was not born as what i have come to be.

to be gentle again...

an angel's heart given flight by demon's wings faces certian death.

do not let this exterior deceive you.
i can easily crush your spirit.
my wounds bleed truth,
their voices are caustic,
and with the words...
a nasty sting from aim and precision of fact.

"how can you be so cruel?"

it is not who i am,
as it is the hate i feel.

i am a demon,
a vicious fiend.
let me alone.
i am a demon with a penchant
for other's misery.
i am a demon,
a vicious fiend.
let me alone
in peace
to be the beast of a man
the world has made me.

i am prepared to fight humanity every day
for the rest of my life,
albeit, my mind and body
yearn for tranquility.

people that should earn my love
consistently warrant my hate.
i truly resent this.

breathe easy, friend.
let not bitter fruit sour your breath.
you were once a gentleman.

when friends fail,
and mother is gone;
when god is silent,
and mates fall out of love...

i still wake to confrontation,
alone, and unflinching.

i am not simply strong,
i may very well be the strongest man
that ever lived.

Steve, and now may I present some humor unto thou:

We where on the top
and the world was spinning
We where only young
World warning
Communication loss
Where did you go
O in the big sleep
The big sleep
I remember
The first time
With me
The first time
