A challenging year indeed
I finally did it! After 35 years of smoking, I managed to quit 28 days ago and it's not really something I wanted to do, but rather needed to do for the sake of my health. Having overcome an 18 year opiate addiction, I am familiar with the triggers, cravings and behavioural patterns that are challenging. Smoking was my friend, my comfort, my crutch and I attached that story to it whenever I felt stressed, depressed or bored/lonely or unable to regulate my emotions. I enjoyed smoking and tbh miss it, but my new story is that I'm a non-smoker. It's only 3 and a half months since my mom died, so I rode out the trauma, shock, grieving, anxiety around arrangements etc. until I became so concerned about my breathing that I thought "it's now or never". My chest does tighten up when I'm anxious and I feel it in my stomach too, but boy, it is so nice to be able to fully expand my lungs now and take deep breaths again. Not to say that I haven't already caused a lot of damage to my lungs and the rest of my body, but coming from a family history of COPD, emphysema and macular degeneration, it was time to take responsibility for my actions and my body, which I've mistreated in the past. I met with the attorney handling mom's estate and I am going to have to sell the house. Having taken care of mom for the past 4 years and not having an income, I've been left in a financial predicament. I've inherited a beautiful home, but also her debt. Now the pressure is on because I need to sell fast and buy another smaller home just as quickly. That way, the house will be transferred into the new owner's name directly and save me the transfer fees. So the pressure is on big time to clean, sort, prepare and search. I tackled cleaning the huge front and back gardens yesterday. The refuse removal guys gave me a talking to this morning, as there were 30 bags of garden refuse on the pavement this morning πŸ˜‚ and my hands and arms are torn to shreds from all the pruning bushes, branches etc. I couldn't walk by 7pm last night, as my 59 year old body has seen that much action in one day in ages 🀣.
A challenging year indeed

Let there be light βœ¨οΈπŸ’›
Recently I've had this nagging little 😈 sitting on my shoulder, saying you're too lighthearted, you need to take life more seriously and be more responsible and less care free. For those who know me, you'll know that humour is one of my favourite playgrounds, but I started to wonder if I was rather playing hide and seek there or using it as a tool of avoidance or deflection. A few minutes ago I heard an all familiar saying ... And God said "Let there be light". There are so many ways to extrapolate this but one of them being ... Let humanity realise that you're Light Beings, not just meat-suit people. Another being ... Let there be lightness and not so much seriousness (and as we know it ... higher vibration, not dense low vibe emotions). And focus on rejoicing the light in people, which helps get rid of their shadow. Lightness not just in the literal sense, but metaphorically... And the πŸ’‘ went on πŸ˜„. I hate using this sort of terminology, but I've mostly considered myself a Lightworker πŸ’›πŸ’«, so why am I trying to be something else I think I "should" be or "shouldn't" be? We've been conditioned to repress and suppress our emotions from early on. When a child cries, they are met with ... "why are you crying?" or "stop crying". And I personally suppressed my emotions most of my life, which got me in a lot of πŸ’©. So I love to laugh (a lot!). I find gratitude vitally important for my wellbeing and I choose to be positive, rather than negative. When I do have negative emotions, I've learned to meet them with love and awareness and not make them "wrong", but integrate them as part of me ... I am not perfect. No one is and the concept doesn't actually exist, because it's a judgement, which I sadly used to chase for much of my life. They are just emotions and it's what you do with or about them that counts. Since Mom passed away, people ask me how I am and I've almost felt guilty for saying that I'm totally fine, happy and at peace. It's as though many are expecting me to be in a puddle of grief, not ever having happy thoughts or feeling joy. Yes, I miss her and I am grieving her physical presence in this realm, but I am still me ... that hasn't changed and I haven't lost her.

WAKE UP NEO...
Once you wake up you can never go back. Once the door is opened, you can never fully shut it again. You can't unsee what you saw (even if you think you can it is in your subconscious.) But your ego will always try to bring you back to where it was "comfortable". When we start waking up and observing it is sometimes scary as hell! But once you come to terms with it, accept it and stop trying to get everyone else to see you and hear you, you can more easily flow in much higher frequency states and stay there! Every trigger or irritation that comes up, is coming up because there is something in our shadow that we need to work out. 🎯 (It's not our job to get the narcissist to work on their issues.) So go ahead and really feel your emotions, press into your feelings.... then rise above them! πŸ¦… Let them be as light as a feather and fly away! When we get to a neutral state the actions, thoughts, feelings, vibes, energy and/or frequencies of other people do not affect us! We are who we are and nothing can ever change that again! (Because now you know, so you won't let them change you.) You no longer have to fight to be you just BE. Everything else will fall away. We are AWAKE... WE SEE, WE HEAR, WE TOUCH, WE FEEL, WE TASTE, WE SMELL but we DO NOT shapeshift to fit in to other frequencies anymore! (Unless of course, we are acting for some good reason!πŸ˜‚) You're on a different frequency and you NO LONGER have to COMPLY with them! Yesterday I wasn't feeling that great so I fell asleep around 8pm (I've been feeling a bit beat up in the spirit). I woke up just after midnight and I had a moment with my teenage self... I held her and cried with her and said sorry for abandoning her! Then I went outside I saw a really bright star (turns out it was Jupiter and Mars)! I also rewatched the revision technique and did my last hw for month one! Then I went back to sleep around 4am to the YouTube portion of the revision homework (again! I did this the night before quitting coffee!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePX4tElI6Rc

@Jai Love Very wise words and you're right. I've had a lot of triggers the past few months, but the awareness changed them all. I thought they were cycling back again, but they became an integration of loving all my parts and not allowing them to put me back in old loops, but rather see how far I've come and how they don't control me, but remind me of my strength and ability to align quickly again and use them as tools. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ€—πŸ’›

Welcome to the Other Side of the Looking Glass ⏳πŸͺž
For the last year, I've been on a pretty wild ride! In July 2024, I opened a time machine! You see I have a bin of journals that are my prized possessions (I've been writing and channeling Source since I am 3). Last year I started going through the bin and I found a folder that seemed to have random things in it, all from the years 1988-1999. This is going to sound more than esoteric πŸ˜‚.... There are many drawings in the folder, some were faces I saw in visions I had while staring at my candle as an 11/12-year-old. Other pictures I drew were of the "War of the Worlds" (I used to love the book), Jim Carey in the Mask, Simba in the Lion King, Kurt Cobain (one of my obsessions), Tweety Bird, and a whole bunch of other cartoons like South Park, for example. I also have drawings of a comic book series I was creating back then and a drawing of people from all different religions coming together to drink a Coca-Cola (I won a nationwide Coca-Cola drawing contest when I was in elementary school. See comments for info). This folder also had pages ripped out from a magazine called "The FACE." I used to hang out in the Village in Manhattan as a teenager and this was one of the "neighborhood" magazines. I kept the pages because they were of Ethan Hawke. He is one of my all-time favorite actors. From 2017-2019 I had a lot of my childhood dreams come true, one of them was meeting Ethan Hawke (I ended up meeting him a few times). So much was stirring in my spirit those years and then the global pandemic kind of killed all those dreams. Anyway, so last July as I am going through this folder, I see that Ethan is standing in a "liminal space," a hallway filled with doors (it also had to do with the color Green, in particular army green. Back then I used to wear my grandfathers army shirt and gear all the time, I started wearing it again in 2020 and he died in 2024 as did my father). When I turned the page there was this Smirnoff ad that said, "The OTHER SIDE" (Pictures below). I did a few google searches last year on the magazine and other things but this week it has all come around full circle.

@Jai Love I love it! Truly believing is the power. I am a Beamer girl too and have had two also πŸ˜‚ I loved both of them and miss them. I'm now driving my Dad's Subaru Legacy Outback, which is the first automatic I've ever driven. Although it's not as stylish as my BMWs, it has a powerful engine and is perfect for the damn rough roads we have here in my tiny town πŸ˜‚. You've just reinforced what I already know ... a mindset I've really been struggling with and putting off trying to work on. I don't have a poverty mindset exactly. I just have never cared about money and now I'm in an awful situation where I need to start appreciating it's value. Since Mom passed away, I no longer have her pension coming in to live off and as I was looking after her 24x7 for 3 years, I haven't had a job. It's become crunch time and I don't really want to sell the house and have no income. I am feeling so lost and confused. I've hit such an intersection in my life now, where I have my freedom to do whatever I want, but I don't know what the hell that is. I know that my fear and panic is causing all sorts of resistance in me and blocking my answers. I try and let go and trust, but I have the nagging voice also saying to me without a clear plan and action, things won't just fall into place. If I had something I passionately wanted to do, I could believe in that, but all the work I've done throughout my career doesn't fit now and I've totally changed my lifestyle too. I worked mostly in large corporates in the high-earning CBD and what I was passionate about and good at in my marketing, advertising, comms and eventing career is no longer interesting to me. I don't want that world anymore. I drove myself into the ground and much prefer my chill vibe now. On top of that, I am now living in a town that is 95% Afrikaans, is tiny, has practically no employment opportunities and certainly doesn't fit with my previous skill set. So what do I do? How do I believe in another reality, another version of me and a successful, prosperous life when I have no idea what I should be doing to get there. Am I trying to be too specific and I should be rather be embodying the feeling? How do I set intentions when I don't know what to set? I've been focusing more on my trust and faith that God will help me find the answers, but it won't all just fall into my lap. I have been investigating a few options of doing work online, but the belief is not there ... it doesn't feel right yet. Perhaps I'm trying to think too big picture and need to just take baby steps until it becomes clearer.

@Jai Love You're right. It feels so uncomfortable trying to go back and do work I've previously done in my career ... like I can't force it. I also took an AI course ... don't know what I'm going to use it for yet, but I'll see. I've already felt in the past couple of days that I don't want to go on FB or IG ... I go through patches where I don't go on social media for a couple of months and I feel it coming again. Time to focus on other stuff. I feel like Source will reveal what I need to know and what I need to do if I go quiet and listen. Love ya πŸ™πŸ»πŸ€—πŸ’›πŸ’•
"Junk" DNA 🀯🀯
Oh hello and happy Friday friends around the world and particularly Happy 4th of July to all my American Soul mates celebrating Independence Day πŸ₯³πŸŽ‰πŸ’ƒπŸ’•. I am deep into a video about quantum entanglement, which I'll post about later, but I just heard this term I've never come across before. Yes, we are 70% light and 30% biology ... pretty much knew that, but then the guest on the podcast said go and Google Junk DNA, which I did and it sent me hopping down a new rabbit hole πŸ‡ 🐰 πŸ•³. Here's the intro ... "Junk DNA" refers to DNA sequences within a genome that do not code for proteins or RNA and whose function is not immediately obvious. While historically labeled as "junk," it's increasingly understood that these non-coding regions can play regulatory roles, impacting gene expression and potentially contributing to overall cellular processes. And it goes into further detail from there ... Anyone ever explored this topic? Don't you just love it when there's Science behind a lot of this knowledge we're devouring? There are just too many rabbit holes and not enough time to explore them all ... but then again, time doesn't exist and we already know everything 🀣🀣. Have an awesome, blessed day all! πŸ€—πŸ™πŸ»βœŒπŸ»πŸ’›πŸ’«
