Ok, so let’s say you want to change your look. Let’s say you want to go from this kind of thing…

…to a more natural look that requires less fuss - maybe something like this…

Fer fuck’s sake, don’t be a retard and try to recreate the long nail look on your short nails. If you wanted that long nail look, you should never have cut your nails in the first place. It’s very basic common sense. Here’s another example…

If you have a full beard and you decide to go for something less hairy, maybe something like this…

…don’t be a complete doofus and go back to your old look by coloring your face in with a Sharpie…

It looks ridiculous and what’s even more ridiculous is when you don’t acknowledge your part in it.

Happy growing up

I usually love the Olympics, and I usually always root for each and every athlete…I love them all. Usually, but not this year. This year the summer Olympics is being held in Beijing, China. China has a monstrous human-rights history.

No freedom of speech. No freedom of of choice or thought even. They are truly oppressed and enslaved.

Tibet has been forced to assimilate, and anyone that resists the might of the Chinese government is immediately crushed!

Olympians, if you really cared about the injustices forced upon your fellow man, you would have boycotted this 2008 Olympics in Beijing. This was such a perfect opportunity to make the world sit up and pay attention to the plight of mankind. You could have denied the ignorant the pleasure of watching hours of world-class sport. You could have refused to go - those of you that could refuse should have. You all have a voice. You all had the opportunity to highlight the human-rights atrocities across the planet. You had the opportunity to shame even the shameless!

But none of you chose to do that. You showed up, with all your glitz and flash, adoring all the attention…but the world will not forget what you have turned your back on.

Enjoy your medals, losers.

Today is a day to manifest all the happiness we want and deserve. The Universe is smiling on us, and we should not waste a second of this fabulous day on anything other than happy and peaceful thoughts. I know that my output energy attracts the same energies back to me - so, I want the world to be happy and peaceful. I want the suffering of all Earth’s inhabitants to stop. I want people to realize that war never solved anything (because if it did, we’d already be at peace, right?), and for everyone to lay down their weapons and refuse war. I want us to lovingly nurture Mother Earth, as she has selflessly nurtured us - I want her to heal. I want her to be happy again.

I want people like Michael Reynolds, aka The Garbage Warrior, to heard by all about his self-sufficient off-the-grid communities. I want people like him to know that he is loved and appreciated for his maverick, system-buster style.

Thank you, Michael! You are a special and unique gift to mankind, and I admire and love you and your crew.

I want to reach out to those that have known about the energetic changes - the evolution of the consciousness, yet fight it despite obviously living with the symptoms thereof. Please know that resistance is arrogant and futile. Do you really think that you are more powerful than the Universe? Do you think it is possible to stand your ground in the face of the energetic tsunami that is sweeping through?

It is better to surrender to this inevitable change and float your way to its conclusion.

We will emerge on the other side as a new species. Like caterpillars that have evolved into butterflies.

“The change is coming folks, and the only question is whether you will resist and fight or just surrender and flow. In this case, nothing but surrender will actually work.”

“After all, our minds do create our reality!”

“Remember, peace will only come to us if we create it in our hearts and then spread it out from ourselves into our personal circles, our communities, and our world. You have to begin by realizing that peace on Earth is possible.”

- Barbara Hand Clow

Happy Solar Eclipse and New Moon everyone Remember that Infinite Love is the only Truth

As most people know, I quit my job of 8 years at the beginning of May, 2008. I had nothing planned other than to work on my tan, and to relax. I’ve worked non-stop for a long very time and I’ve taken very little time to rest. I’ve been exhausted for many years, but I just kept on going because I had to.

When I first joined the company, I loved my job. I was happy and I was doing something I understood very well, and was good at, so it was a great fit. But, as the bank started restructuring the departments, my job was moved to Atlanta, and so after 5 years I found myself doing something I didn’t love so much, in a different department. Although I was grateful for the opportunity, I didn’t like sitting in judgment of other people, so I hated it. Once again, that all went away and I was moved to yet another department in the bank. I guess they saw me as an asset and wanted to keep me around, and I appreciated their effort. So, eventually I found myself in an immensely destructive department, filled psychos, their victims and the infinitely delusional. It was a terrible fit, but I stuck it out for 2 years before finally quiting.

Since May, I’ve had my (almost) 27 year old niece staying with us. So, a lot of my focus and energy was spent on her, but all good things come to an end, and her adventure in North America ends upon her return from Canada in August, when she will fly back to South Africa.

In the meantime, while she’s been in Canada, within a day or two of her departure, I got a phone call from a friend (that I used to work with 10 years ago) to say that my name had come up during a discussion about a newly acquired business in town. The businessman is the brother of the man I used to work for 10 years ago. I was flattered that they even remembered me. Anyway, I called his number in North Carolina, and left a voice mail. He called me back the next day and we talked for quite a bit. He sounds interested, and I’ve completed a job application, which I will fax to him today.

I wasn’t intending to work any time soon, but it’s obvious that I’m being nudged in that direction. I always go with my nudgings.

I spoke to Lapis about it all the same day. I like the way she described it:

“When the Universe bends and turns like that to reach you, it’s clearly a sign that this is meant for you”

I’m not sure I’ll get the job, but I just wanted to blog about this, and say, “Thank you Universe, I got the message loud and clear, and I’m following through.”

I’m just getting to Summer Solstice 2008 issue of the Pleiadian Times. There is so much in it that I want to shout out to the world, but of course many of the messages are personal and my interpretation is meant only for me. There is one message though, that I think is meant for more than just me, and here it is:

“If the future is seen as hopeless or contingent upon someone saving you, then poor decisions can be made in the present.”

Truth. We all need to take responsibility for our actions, our thoughts and our utterings in the present because we are creating the future through our attitudes of today.

Several weeks ago, I made THIS blog post. How prophetic it turned out to be.

Ah! The Moon is my friend today. I always feel the effects of Moon, especially a few days before the Full Moon. Sometimes I feel off-kilter and “weird” and then other times, like today, I feel fantastic! I feel happy and in love. Even my gnarly boy-cat is showing more of his loving side.

The birds are singing happily, and even my husband has been singing non-stop for days…naked!

All is in perfect and divine order.

…and someone else said it in two sentences….this is about the apples in the previous post:

QUOTE=crossx (from the David Icke Forum)

If I said that the sky is blue, would you condemn me for plagiarism?
If I think that something is true, cannot I say it because somebody already said it before?.

Once upon a time someone decided to paint an apple.

Artist: Nicole Etienne.

The painting is the artist’s beautiful expression of an apple, as she perceives it. Does it mean that the actual physical apple on which she based her painting is her exclusive creative property? No, of course not.

Let’s say the apple represents TRUTH. If you can see the apple, and smell it, bite into it and taste its sweetness, then you’d agree that it was a delicious apple, and not a banana or rasberry. Is this apple-experience, this TRUTH, yours exclusively? Don’t be silly. The TRUTH is available to whomever desires it. The apples of the world are not ideas that belong to only one person. Just like TRUTH, they belong to us all, and the doctor says you should eat one every day

Artist: Neil Faulkner.

The apples are in the crate.

In the crate are the apples.

Same truth, worded differently. Truth is not intellectual property, and should never be the secrets of a select few. Truth is also not something anyone should thumb their noses at, because to do so shows a very shallow and slow mind, as well as a dense disposition. Apples, like TRUTH, come in different shapes and colors, but at the end of the day, it’s still an apple.

Artist: Unknown.

Like apples, TRUTH can be manipulated out of its natural form, color and flavor…

Artist: Unknown.

Yum! Who doesn’t love Apple Pie à la mode? It’s not the TRUE apple in its natural state. It’s altered and dressed up, but because it came from a TRUE and natural apple, there is some TRUTH to it.

Apple Sauce - Not a personal favorite, but it’s a good example of altered apples. Many different manufacturers make apple sauce. They all have different labels, and some even have radically different recipes, but they’re ALL apple sauce, and ultimately they’re all made from apples.

So, just like TRUTH, apples can be represented in different ways, by different people, with different covers/labels on their books/jars. Is it the flavor you like? Maybe not, but ultimately it came from TRUE apples. Your apple sauce and my apple sauce may be very different, but within every jar is the reflection of truth.

Artist: Steven Mitchell.

I’ve come to realize over the past month that I’m on a crash course learning about myself, not just the conscious parts but very much the subconscious parts. Just about a week or two ago, I had a realization about how connected I feel to other people and that I feel about them as I feel about myself. I wrote about it HERE.

Today I had another epiphany, and I’d like to share it. It’s not the most pleasant information but it is who I am, and therefor I will not ignore or reject it. I choose to embrace it. Ever since I was a child I’ve had a distinct interest in the macabre. When other children were reading Richie Rich comics, I was reading Boris Karloff’s Tales of Mystery.

I remember reading novels about murder and puzzling for hours over the details. Even to this day I enjoy watching forensic TV shows, no matter how graphic, because I’m curious about it. I want to try understand the “WHY”. Why do people do this to each other? I cannot get my head wrapped around it, and maybe this is why I continue to have a fascination with this particularly distasteful aspect of human behavior. Someone once asked me how I could watch this stuff, and honestly I don’t really have an answer. I have also always wondered about it though. What the heck is wrong with me!?

The one thing I have learned about watching these types of shows is that most of these people had difficult childhoods. Some were treated violently, others neglected or abused…but it seems that, especially with serial killers, they all had some sort of “disconnection” during childhood. My childhood was far from normal. I had a drunk father who beat the shit out of my emotionally absent mother almost daily. Of course there was the sexual abuse thing too. So, not pretty by any means, but there it is. This is the kind of damage that affects people all the way into adulthood. If you look at the childhood histories of many serial killers, you’ll find that they had similar experiences…worse than mine for sure, but similar none the less.

Anyway, today the answer came to me. The reason I have been trying to figure out the “WHY” to my near-obsession of solving the criminal mind is because I think there is an undeveloped and unloved part of me that I’m trying to understand. Is it not possible with my childhood history that I could have turned out differently? Of course it is.

So, perhaps this is the ongoing process (like Lapis calls it - Alchemical) of me becoming a whole person. Understanding and embracing all the facets of who I am…possibly even in parallel lives.

I get it now, and I embrace it.

From Karen Bishop’s June 23rd, 2008 Alert:

As we evolve up the rungs of the evolutionary ladder of our spiritual expansion, it is vitally important to respect and listen to our elders, or those who have gone ahead. Arriving in a new space while embodying an arrogant posture of false knowingness without letting go of ego energy, will now only serve to support an arrival into a new space with a door securely shut.

Yes, it’s amazing how much ego arrogance there still is. I like the way Karen describes it as “false knowingness” because that’s exactly what it is, and it is sooo obvious….totally high maintenance!
