Change

Lots of people I know including myself want to create Change in our world. How can we do that as a unified group. Here is a simple way. Be the Change you want to Create.

How many times do we see our world fail so miserably and we grumble and moan about it? We can waste so much energy just talking about what's wrong and how our leaders are failing to make a difference. In a sense we have fallen into the category of those who are responsible for the unhappiness of our Planet and its inhabitants. There are other ways you can make a difference. If you want to create a change worldwide, begin the first step and ASK yourself, "What can I do today to make my world better" when I say My World I literally mean the World you have created to live from your hearts. YOUR WORLD REFLECTS back to you what you have created internally. YOUR BELIEF SYSTEM.

To begin this process, you create the change internally. Look at every aspect of what you dislike outside of you and MAKE the CHANGE inside of you. START by being kinder and more gentle with yourself. Be more LOVING towards your self and others. This will reassure you and help eliminate FEAR. GIVE UP JUDGEMENTS, This manifests as arguments with yourself and others, Continue with NICE assuring positive loving conversations with yourself instead of causing a WAR with yourself. Move towards NOURISHING your body with GREAT food and exercise and this can work on world HUNGER. STOP repeating negative news and conversations and this in turn will help raise the energy of our Media Demons who thrive on this energy.

Be a Leader, not a sheep and Give others the COURAGE to do the same. This eliminates CONTROL and gives room for more UNDERSTANDING. If you want a CLEANER environment Remove the CLUTTER and RUBBISH in your hearts and Minds and you personal environment and clean up your life first. FORGIVE yourself for your mistakes and Forgive others if they have hurt you. This will shift your energy instantly, causing a tidal wave of LOVE to stream forth from your heart. AND last but not least Remember to BREATHE and REST your body, mind, and spirit, This allows you to stay connected with what you are, a BEING Of LIGHT who can create whatever it is you desire and of course this will help calm down the chaos within our world and Create a sense of PEACE and CONTENTMENT and you'll start to enjoy more PEACEFUL HARMONIOUS relationships. By leading by example OUR WORLD CAN SHIFT INSTANTLY therefore sending the message to the UNIVERSE to follow. What you FOCUS ON EXPANDS, FOCUS ON THE LOVE THAT YOU ARE and work from there.

Which version are you?

Yesterday my daughter came home with a new phone. It's a really fantastic piece of equipment as it has almost everything a person would need to run their busy lives. Her boyfriend commented on how good the processor was, it was a much faster version that her new laptop. To me I personally don't understand what a processor does so this sort of information can go over my head, although I love technology. I have my phone and I love it and it's as up to date as I can handle.

More recently I am discovering new things that I can do with it and I can control my life better with the different Apps that I can download etc. But this stirred something yesterday, it was almost like a little education lesson that her boyfriend was dancing me through. Our lives are like all the different phones or laptops or computers, and how do we know which one is best? When do we let go of the outdated pieces and update?

Here is what I have learned regarding the different ways to interpret our lives.
Some days we will be on silent. Some days we will be turned off. At times we won't be able to make or receive calls as there is no signal. Other days it seems that everybody wants a piece of us and calls keep flooding in. There will be more days when we are making the calls and more often than not there are calls with no communication at all. There will be days when you have blocked numbers appear and you you won't answer them and other days you answer and wish you hadn't. You'll find plans are made and then later cancelled, and you'll be hurt because it can be easy to hurt someone with our easy use of technology. Messages will be sent and received and we will all read something different that should have been received or sent. and many times your device will automatically disappear as the FAERIES have hidden it. Does this resonate with anyone?

What does this mean?

My interpretation is that We are Spiritual beings living a HUMAN existence and we are living by the programmes and processors of what we have CHOSEN to experience so we can learn and become better versions of ourselves. We have been carrying a programme that tells us when to eat, sleep, talk, exercise, communicate etc. Does this information suit your life today? Did you allow yourself to be updated with newer programmes? Are you still running on what you were told when you were 5 years old or are still allowing yourself to be told at 30 or 40 years of age? Do you still have a programme installed that says don't speak until your spoken to, or little children should be seen and not heard?

Have you a programme running that tells you it is not good to love yourself as this will be seen as having a HUGE EGO. Here's what I KNOW~ Once we reach a certain age usually around the age of 18 or so, Our life becomes our responsibility and it is our goal to keep updated with newer information and practices that serve us well as we go through life. What we were taught at 5 years of age may no longer be valid today and may cause us some stress as we attempt to keep up with modern programming. We cannot direct blame to our parents, schools and religious practices if life becomes difficult. We all have CHOICES to make and CHANCES To take, and to live a more contented way. So if your values are a bit outdated, download new ones. If other versions of people are not compatible with yours, Accept their version and respect yourself to not let their programmes contaminate yours.

 If you find you are not working as efficiently as you know you should be deep down, take yourself to a repair shop.. i.e doctor, therapy, shopping trip, coffee with a friend or just rest, before your piece of equipment breaks down and is unusable and worn out. Just because someone has a better perceived version of your life does not mean a thing, as in a better life, or relationship or body etc, they may not know how to use it or value what they have, or have the valuable wisdom stored in the memory.

There are also times when we can get frustrated at how others are misusing their equipment and we want or feel it is our duty to point out to them how to use it correctly, but then we may be robbing them of an opportunity to learn for themselves. People learn quicker when they ask for help, they appreciate it more and they can integrate it better when it is their decision to learn. When the information is given, sometimes it can be accepted begrudgingly, and therefore create a little bit of havoc even though the intention was good, almost like putting a new battery into someone's phone, its look the same and feels the same but may short circuit the phone after a little while,or not work at all because it wasn't the correct one. How many times have we asked for help and when we accepted the help graciously, we found a much easier way of doing things and we may have even got a little annoyed with ourselves for not getting to know a particular function that we had all along.

All I can say is, Get To know your buttons, functions, programmes etc BE THE BEST VERSION OF YOU THAT YOU CAN BE WITH THE EQUIPMENT YOU HAVE AND HELP YOURSELF BECOME HAPPY AND CONTENT and who knows, you may be the trend setter, instead of following the trend.. LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE with Grace and gratitude for all of you and LEARN TO LOVE ALL OF YOU warts and all.

The Jig Saw Puzzle

Who has not ever attempted to piece together a Jig Saw Puzzle?

I used to love them when I was in my teens. In fact I remember I used to glue some of them to pieces of cardboard. and this way I could view my handy work for a longer time. I could spend days and weeks working on them if circumstances allowed me to, Mostly I would break it up and place it back in the box, especially if I was annoyed or allowed anyone to get in the way of my hobby. I realise now I was the only person affected by doing this, no one else ever batted an eyelid. Many times after staring at these puzzles for hours I would not be able to ever think about the picture ever again after spending the time making it.

Recently on my trip to Canada, I met a lovely man who happened to be the father of a friend of mine, and he said he is planning to come to Ireland one day, as he would like to visit the Cliffs of Moher. Apparently he worked with a lady from these parts and she told him of the beauty of this magnificent place on the West coast of Ireland.

A couple of days when I returned home, I visited a friend to catch up on the recent trip and she had a Jig Saw puzzle on the coffee table. Without even thinking I started to get involved and began to solve this puzzle, unasked. It was like I was meant to help Mel with it. As I was leaving she handed me a new puzzle to take with me. The picture on the front of the box is of course "The Cliffs of Moher".
Now a couple of things came to mind, firstly the Universe is making a connection to visit the Cliffs again, and secondly maybe the message was make your own puzzle and stop interfering in another persons' puzzle.

So home I came, box in hand, and separated the pieces so that I could build the outline. Not as easy as I remember. The cliffs are being assembled on the dining table, and I notice who ever comes into the house has a little attempt too, without asking. Everyone can see what I'm doing, I never thought how it would be open to everyone, and I just opened the box and started it without thinking of the consequences. It is an interesting journey to observe, even down to having myself eat my meals at the couch because I couldn't make room at the table, if I have people over. Each day I get up and will attempt another piece in the puzzle. What I find interesting is how different the puzzle looks at different times of the day, when in different light and when I am experiencing different emotions or different moods. There are so many shades in the deep blue sea in this puzzle and how some days I will place a couple of pieces in their places and feel like I have achieved so much, and then I return later or the next day only to discover that they don't actually fit properly and what have I been thinking, and I find myself muttering silly things to myself.
Then there are times when I want to pack it up in the box and give it back. At other times people would come and sit down and rest their arms on the table and the pieces would stick to their skin, and because it's not their master of works, they really don't care that you have to redo the work because they didn't invest any time into the project.

The real wisdom for me is this, This puzzle is like our lives. It comes with lots of little pieces that we have to gently fit in place, we attempt to make a duplicate picture as to what we are have envisaged.  Like a dream or a goal!!  Many days it will be easy, many days it will be tough, some days we will struggle, other days we won't bother at all. Pieces (information) will disappear and reappear out of no where.
Did you ever find you want something in your life finished so bad you are willing to squeeze the pieces of your life together so quickly and assume things are perfect even though you know deep down that it is not right? Only to discover you will have to redo the hard work you may have done the day before. There are days when you'll be glad of someone walking in and just getting on with helping you~unasked and uninvited. And guess what?, there will be times when someone walks in and with the best intentions of helping, they will drive you to distraction and you'll find yourself bubbling with anger, whilst remaining calm on the outside with a smile on your face. There will also be times that you think you have all the answers and strategies to complete it, only to discover you have been looking at someone else's picture and you would have never succeeded even if you stay awake 24 hours a day because that is their puzzle on the box and it was not meant for you. Sometimes we want to sort someone 's life quicker than we sort our own.
All in all, do the best you can and stick with it, Life is too precious to give up on particular projects, goals and relationships. And learn to love your puzzle of what your life is about. Minding our own business and energy can save us lots of grief. Stay calm and relaxed and create boundaries that no one can take pieces of your life and when the time is right eventually it all fits together Perfectly with lots of patience.

Another odd question I have is, "what happens when I finish it, what will I do then", so often in the past  I might have sabotaged the ending so I didn't have to feel the joy of completion, like I've done thousands of times in my life, it was easier to see myself as a failure.

Anyway for now, I'm enjoying the puzzle making effort, the patience, the time to myself, the fun, and the bouts of laughter that I'm experiencing when my daughter sees me looking so serious over a few pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Life is so much easier when we feel it's Fun. And as each piece begins to show the resemblance of what it is supposed to be in the picture, I feel a real sense of pride for my efforts. The beauty is no one has to know the struggle or the time or the bizarre journey between me and my puzzle with my efforts.  I am grateful to be able to see and feel the pieces in my hands as there are many who do not have this privilege.

Full Moon

Here we are at another Full moon. This is a wonderful time to take responsibility and let go of what no longer serves us any more. What do you feel you need to get rid of this month?

For me this is a tough one as I have shed so much in the last nine Years. I ask myself each month what else can I get rid of? And as Always there is something to move on that no longer requires the energy. This month is very unusual as I have so many pieces of my life that has been settled and Karma has been restored in many areas. I feel that I can breathe again and really take life for what it is, a beautiful existence for those of us who appreciate the full context of what we are here to do. I feel I have lived a decade of years in the last month. This time last month I was in Vancouver with the most wonderful people and help bring so many of them to see a little of what I see around us  everyday.

I am truly Blessed and I want everyone to feel this also. However this comes with a price, To grow and Evolve this means you have to look at all the areas that are not working, and root amongst our illusion of our lived moments. The best bit is we are always helped, by our Guides, the planets, family, friends and God. Everything gets lined up for the Chop so to speak. It is a great way of freeing up stagnant energy.

Sometimes it is a physical thing that has to go, sometimes it's an emotional or mental energy or pattern. Many times it maybe a resentment or hurt that has come up for clearing.  I am grateful for whatever it is that dares to rear its head. Often times I am not aware for many months what has been cleared.

This month I have something special for me that I have struggled with since I was a Child. It's the need to clear anything or person that no longer respects me. I am now 43 years of age and for the first year since I could think for myself, I have allowed myself to be disrespected because I thought I was not worthy of Respect. Respect shows up in many different forms. Respect for myself is looking after ME, not allowing myself to treat myself badly, be it Diet, Exercise, the language I tell myself in a negative way or allowing other people to treat me with disrespect. be it telling you lies, wasting your time, allowing them to treat you less than you should be treated, even though you may love this person with all your heart, i.e family, relationships, work colleagues etc. I also discovered today, when I allow myself to be disrespected by other people, I am also allowing them to be disrespectful of themselves. Every person knows the truth at some level. When we allow a NO boundary zone,we are also giving the other party/person a free ticket to set themselves up for Disrespect and disaster, as we carry the hurt and resentment of their action with us in our hearts polluting other areas of our Growth. No one wins,

Another point I will make is, as a community of people living on this wonderful planet, we can only change the world by changing ourselves, and Our INNER world, which makes a huge impact on our OUTER world where we all expect to live in Harmony. Tonight I ask you to look at what you may change in your world and how YOU as one individual can impact the whole planet.

Namaste xx

Technology..

Another lovely day ending~ or another just beginning?
What have I learned today? 
This morning I have been able to check messages, receive texts, review others peoples emails, read my own emails, check updates with my friends, Speak for free to my friends in Canada, watch you tube videos, research and Clarify details and facts with my girls, (essential. to save arguments and drama), all in a few minutes. 

Lesson of the day 
Today and everyday has to be~~ The magick and many uses of technology. 
Being a Gemini I absolutely always found any piece of technology fascinating. It is such a joy for me to be alive in the 21st century. Some may not take this view. Many of you find it heartbreaking to get your head around a laptop or a new smartphone. I will say this , Persevere. You can and will figure it out and ask an indigo child to help you, They do it with their eyes closed. The use of certain technology will change the way you stay connected to like minded people. The world is really very small. Social networks sites like Facebook or Twitter and Google plus and Skype have connected more people than any religion or Political arena. Use them to uplift, Be responsible with your correspondence. A badly worded message can offend or hurt the receiver.
 
However, there is one piece of technology I find difficult, its called a remote control. A few years ago, I would connect any TV, Video CD player almost with my eyes closed. Then in 2010 I moved house and decided to live without a TV, Peace and Quiet, soft music, a candle, a cosy fire and a book replaced the noise, drama and stress associated with the TV. After about a year my girls came to live with me and I replaced the TV for their enjoyment.  In that short time I lost all memory on how to use a remote control for the SKY TV. You might ask why is this so strange? Today I asked my daughter to show me how to use the remote so that I could watch the TV and then I realised why would I bother. I have all the entertainment I need via my other technology.  So in reality this got me thinking about my other thoughts and patterns, when we buy into using certain language and energy to support certain memories and dramas we are quite comfortable and Adept at particular activities. However when the energy of those patterns or dramas are shifted , unplugged or removed from our Vibration, we no longer remember how to play the part. Time is a great Healer!! Be it illness, drama or otherwise, Life does really get better.. Without my TV I have learned to read Life so differently from my point of view as opposed to what the Media demons want you to see and Believe into your Consciousness.

My daily routine has been filled with so much more fulfilling activities and gratitude for being connected to real people with real stories.  

Thank you to Keara and Gemma for opening my view to the use of Google Blogger.
