Deja Vu


It happened again yesterday. It is not the first time that this road sign has appeared to let me know I am on the right track. 
The first one I remember was nearly 20 years ago while living in Kansas. 
It was a hot summer day and I was on the roof of a house replacing some shingles. I was looking out over the rolling hillsides, the grass was green and the air was thick with humidity. I was wishing I were someplace else and wondering if I had made the right choices that had brought me to this place.
Whoosh ... just like that! I had a feeling sweep over me that was like a distant memory. I was reminded of a dream that had occurred many years ago. I saw this 
scene laid out in my dream, and now, right before my eyes, here it was again in the reality of daylight!
Deja Vu.
Deja Vu  “is the feeling of certainty that one has already witnessed or experienced a current situation, even though the exact circumstances of the prior encounter are unclear and were perhaps imagined. The term was coined by a French psychic researcher, Émile Boirac (1851–1917) in his book L'Avenir des sciences psychiques ("The Future of Psychic Sciences"), which expanded upon an essay he wrote while an undergraduate. The experience of déjà vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity, and also a sense of "eeriness", "strangeness", "weirdness", or what Sigmund Freud calls "the uncanny". The "previous" experience is most frequently attributed to a dream, although in some cases there is a firm sense that the experience has genuinely happened in the past.”
This quote from Wikipedia gives a good definition.
This experience has happened many times in my life and always at an unanticipated moment.
Maybe to give me a sense of being on the right road, or an attaboy from the universe.
What ever, it got my attention yesterday as I was out in the garden moving tons of dirt from one place to another. There it was, right there in front of me. 
A vision of a dream or memory ... the feeling was unmistakable. That Whoosh that swept over me and then that feeling. That unmistakable feeling that I was in the right place at the right time, getting an attaboy from the universe.
I stopped and gave pause for the connection and then got my wheel borrow and continued on ...

Do it now!


DO IT NOW!
I woke up this morning thinking about the way my life has unfolded. 
Being raised in a family environment I did what my parents told me. I assumed that they had all the answers and that by following their example I would be able to know all there was to know.
I was sent to the local school and attended the local church. Each of those instructors was following a pattern that was set down by those before them.
I learned that to get along with others around me, I had to follow their rules.
The problem is, I wanted to know who made up the rules. I looked outside of myself into the larger world and found that other people had other rules. They seemed happy and yet their rules were different. 
I spent 2 years as a missionary in another part of the world trying to convince others that my rules were better than their rules. Sometimes I won, sometimes I had to walk away frustrated that I didn’t have all the answers.
Today I am looking at a larger picture.
It took me many years, but I have discovered that those who make up the rules in this life are only guessing most of the time. They quote from famous people and old books, and most of the time, they don’t have a clue about the things they are preaching.
There is another group of people. These are the ones who live off the efforts of others around them. 
They make rules and change the rules. 
They tell us that to survive we have to take things away from those who are weak and insignificant. We are led to believe that this is in the best interest of the greater good.
Then, there are the bullies. These take what they want by force and defend their right to do so by bigger guns that defend their position.
There is a whole class of people that live off the life blood of the people around them. 
These are predators. 
Doctors, Lawyers, Presidents, Popes, Priests, Prophets, Evangelists, and so forth. You can use a myriad of names to classify them, but they are mostly charlatans.
I like to call them Vampires. Blood suckers. Energy abusers. Manipulators. 
This is a class of people that are so destructive that they have formed powerful groups to defend their positions with laws, tribunals, courts, guns, military force, and self proclaimed heavenly authority.
They poison us with vaccinations, genetically modified food, chemicals injected into our food, air, and water. They radiate our food, atmosphere and bodies with lethal toxins that destroy our bodies, minds, and spirits. 
And finally, they pollute our minds with numbing babel that blocks our ability to think and reason.
Mind control!
Walk away from your captors and abusers!
The world as we know it is a sinking ship. 
It is The Titanic. 
It is doomed if we continue to allow these captains to steer us into disaster. 
The old way is not working.
STOP! 
I SAY ENOUGH!
There is hope. 
We are powerful spiritual beings who are capable of anything we set our hearts and minds to do.
Take back your own power.
If we attempt to change the world by playing their game with their rules, we will loose.
Each one of us has within us the ability to make a difference.
YOU, who are reading this are doing so because you have started to wake up. YOU are dissatisfied with things as they are. 
YOU want to change.
THIS is YOUR time!
Your SPIRITUAL DNA is activating!
Get ready for the ride of your life. 
The life that you are meant to live.
The person that you want to be.
No more to be the puppet of false masters who pull your strings.
You are your own MASTER!
What do you want out of life?
If you could do anything, what would it be?
Pay attention to the inner thoughts that are always with you. 
What feels good?
What makes you happy?
Move away from Drama and those who perpetrate them.
You will find yourself migrating to people who are positive and happy and fulfilled. 
You will find yourself being drawn to places that energize you and inspire you.
Go to them, enjoy the ride.
You have struggled against the current long enough, it is time to find the natural flow that is right for you.
Forgive those who have harmed you.
Bless them, and let them go.
As long as you allow the negative feelings from your abusers and captors to be part of your life, they still have control over you.
Make up your own rules, they will be perfect for you. 
Do not assume that your rules are right for anyone else. They are only perfect for you.
Eat good food.
Think good thoughts.
Your thoughts will create your new world.
Quit your jobs, if that feels right for you.
Get out your bucket list and start living life.
Most of all, honor all life. Animals, birds, insects and other humans. We all share this planet together. Find a place of harmony with all things. 
Bless your Enemy’s.
“THEY,” will go away. 
We are part of a vast universe that allows us unlimited exploration of the mysteries and wonders of all there is.
This is YOUR destiny!
Do it!
Do it NOW!

You slipped your hand into mine


     Beloved One, today I felt you slip your hand into mine. I was transported back to happy memories from 17 years. We walked hand in hand along our many hikes. We fell asleep holding each others hand. You comfort me with your memories, you caress me with your thoughts, and bless me with your love. Beloved One from across the veil, you have not left me, You have joined with me on my new journey through life. Together we walk hand in hand into a new day and a new beginning.

You whisper in my ear


     Today I feel you close to me, you whisper in my ear and hold my heart. Your physical body is no longer with me but your presence is always near. I am so grateful that we chose to live life in the moment, to grab happiness wherever we could, following our hearts in chasing rainbows. You made my life so much better, helping me to see the beauty in nature, forgiving those who throw sticks and stones. I catch glimpses of you in my dreams and you are always beautiful, always smiling. You, my darling made this world a better place. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Forever yours, Gary
