April Traditions of Remembrance, Renewal and Restoration On All Levels

on Mon, 04/06/2020 - 12:13
Corona can't cancel traditions whether religious and cultural ones from  over the centuries, nature keeping her cycles forever or people dreaming out loud about their place in humanity, the earth and stars.
 
 This time is acknowledged by the dawning of the Age of Aquarius with the planets lining up in special ways and the world tuning into the greater field of love, wisdom, care and capabilities to heal oneself and the earth, being reverent for all who have journeyed before us and enrich our lives on many levels, including those intuited more than seen.
 
 "What does all of this mean?" are questions explored by many including Eve Wilson who wrote Riding the Wave of Change: Hope, Healing and Spiritual Growth for our World. She also shares The Weekly Word for Healing and Ascension, a free blog. 
 
There are dozens of speakers on shows online such as YouWealthRevolution.com and BeyondTheOrdinary.com. TheThriveAcademy.com helps people (as do others such as PattyLennon.com and Jennifer McLean's McLean Masterworks and JarradHewett.com) to appreciate their own talents and gifts.
 
TeslaMetamorphosis.com and TheReconnection.com offer insights into how people are able to allow for more 'light and information' to flow in their lives and with people one may interact or assist without 'thinking or intending.' 
 
All of these modalities can help usher in appreciation for the traditional teachings of the golden rule, accepting a sense of connection to a loving source with guidance for living in balanced ways and considering the divine 'within' as well as in another realm.
 
 While quantum science is part of the new normal, more people are seriously trying to comprehend the challenges humanity faces due to affects of radiation, what food and drugs are taken (including vaccines which can cross the blood-brain barrier with nano-particles of aluminum and sorbitol attached to the vaccine antigens, according to a Dr. Palevsky.)
 
 In the traditional time of Passover and Easter, the legacy of the Chosen People, the Jewish people, and that of Jesus who became the Messiah (or Messenger) when baptized by John, and died to pay a ransom price for humanity's sin can be explored with many online resources and even movies. 
 
Since those times, the modern world had grown in complexity and has had horrendous conflicts based on religion, costing hundreds of thousands their lives. Now we are faced with ever more complex 'staging' with 5G satellites and the effects of even our daily bread (overall nutritional intake) and viruses to consider closely.
 
 Discussions on the online talks from NewLifeExpo.com (whose speakers all have their own websites and offers) and ideally with many other experts from various fields discussing matters could provide encouragement for every person to be part of a healing team, rather than a hurting team.
 
A Hurting, defensive person and team (possibly mentally unstable so may not be completely intentional) is one that is willing or focused on ways  to hurt others to get ahead or even defend themselves as a first option rather than put a lot of effort into making teams of collaboration to pull through challenges.
 
Likely more than one community has seen that people are turning to guns for a sense of 'ultimate protection' rather than tuning into the more comprehensive spiritual and moral ways the majority of people can unite and claim dignity and protection from wrongdoing rather than only from viruses or mortal threats.
 
That's something to explore in more depth. Some say we are a 'time-limited, destined for mortality' kind of creature while others espouse 'there is no end to our spiritual existence, our consciousness and even connections with others energetically'.
 
The Way we play the game of life is as important as How Long It Lasts. Many would contend that the quality of one's life can impact one's views and experiences, yet 'man does not live by bread alone'. Many people in very poor countries find reasons to smile and keep going.
 
There is concern from Doctors Without Borders and more advocacy groups to give every human being respect, particularly in terms of not having to be married or have children if not desired. The overall terms of any legal or social 'contract' needs modern updating for all people or all faiths and walks of life, genders and family status to prioritize human rights for safety, decency and basic provisions.
 
Some say we are asking too much, yet likely we have not had meaningful ways to consider important questions that could 'clear the air' and help everyone feel empowered to be a team player.
 
Possibly housing and ways to live outdoors (in separate tents but with access to a main lodge for poor weather and sanitary latrines and bathrooms, kitchens and meals) for part of the year or as the climate allows for all of the year. Each person having a vehicle to live in (even if not functioning) could be a helpful resource should people have to live apart a certain distance from others.
 
It's not the easiest think to consider such transitions, but could be an important skill such as learning to camp.
 
There could be videos with practical things to do over time to help more people live in groups with accountability for camping, then sharing living spaces, having basic supplies of clothing, good footwear (not just flip flops) and nutrition (for health and avoiding metabolic syndromes which are on the rise for all age groups in industrialized countries and wherever fast food floods the market.) 
 
Some say  seeking to help one another rather than fight for one's own survival is 'going against human nature' but I will offer that our civilized society and acts of heroism and dedication to values of the greater love are viable options to explore.  Consider the the motto of 'United we stand: divided we fall.'
 
The fable of three sticks held fast together are almost impossible to break whereas individually fairly easily to snap as a reminder for people to try to work together (even with degrees of social and physical distancing as recommended to keep the peace and health of people in mind, to write out concerns and ideas to share more readily than trying to get 'one person at a time' to consider points and to brainstorm ways things Can Go Well and Creative Solutions rather than opt initially and often toward 'how that won't work' or 'that doesn't make sense or isn't worth hearing.'
 
Some say a conversation is best when two people share the time. Yet to explore ideas often a person needs time to 'think things out' either with a willing listener taking notes, writing things down with pen and paper or on a computer, using software that can translate voice to text (and maybe vice versa) or having a few people listen and offer reflective listening and questions to explore as well as optional resources for the speaker and others to take the points to another level or link with other ideas.
 
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is based on gathering heaps of data. More 'targeted marketing' relies on hearing from 'dedicated respondents' who can share insights and specifics about what they are wanting, needing and experiencing.
 
I learned that the Lego Toy company almost went out of business in 2015 but then researched what their customers wanted. While most wanted simpler designs, some were looking for more complicated ones. They discovered that after giving those wanting easier set a product that bombed. That's when they went to the most enthusiastic Lego folks and went with complicated sets, up to 1000 pieces initially.
 
Those sold out in no time and now they create  6000 pieces (and likely up.) While that's sad for the environment in my humble opinion, it made Lego the top toy company in the world. So that's a lot to consider and something I learned from a set of videos online (as have many by now, part of a whole system to learn about serving one's clients in a market that has been doing well and will continue to do so.)
 
My hope is to serve humanity in the basic ways of social interactions and systems that provide information, resources and support to make many parts of life more comprehensible and easier. It seemed the whole of civilization was wanting to go in that direction yet the 'cost of living' in homes with high costs and other pressing matters for survival seem to take center stage.
 
Many assumptions about people being healthy from the get-go have been made and finding out how much it costs to 'mend the gaps' impacts society town by town, state by state. Different levels of 'minimal care' vary widely so that we likely live in a patchwork of have's and have-not's like most people realize is highly unbalanced and hardly makes sense.
 
But since no one is really asking and people who have a lot seldom look in their rearview mirror to watch out for others comprehensively, then we continue in a certain frenzied confused pace. With this worldwide 'putting the brakes on most parts of moving about and interacting with others' we have a pause to consider what Is working well in our own lives, from biologically to socially and in our local and online circles.
 
The greater experience is informing the personal on many levels. It's hard to comprehend and find the ways to start reaching out and 'rethinking and remaking our society' with so little warning. Thankfully many people in places such as faith groups, schools and permaculture groups online and otherwise have ways to keep parts of society feeling grounded.
 
Then there are a host of insights from the websites I listed initially which could enrich everyone's sense of being a meaningful team player and part of a lovely garden of humanity on earth at this particular time.
 
Some espouse a view that we can 'evolve into a higher dimension' a bit like stepping on an escalator and going up 'step by step' with a lot of support to an ascended state of being. Many say this has been happening due to many forces and energies in our galaxy and with our bodies shifting gradually over time.
 
The idea that 'we have nothing to worry about' and much of this is happening literally in our sleep can be comforting. Living one day at a time can include sleeping well one night at a time. If we could find ways to minimize who needs to miss out on sleep more than 1-2 times a week that would be great.
 
Whatever jobs can be done online on one side of the world with some translators and everyone being in a collaborative, ethical, accountable network the better.  Monitoring systems could likely help one person do the job of a few, much like security guards watching more cameras. Even there computers could likely be running programs to detect actions that would be deemed problematic (violence, presence of a gun, etc.)
 
Just thinking out loud here in a way to give others a sense of how they also could allow thoughts to flow and 'connections to be made or offered' for further consideration. Many people are feeling called to assist others with ascending with 'light languages' which can sound rather peculiar or like jibberish.
 
Likely people who only know one spoken language may feel that was about many other or 'foreign' languages, so again we can find our way from where we are in our understanding to consider things we really wouldn't normally think of needing or wanting to consider.'
 
Examples in mediation training include people looking at a picture that looks like two people facing each other or seeing their profile in a mirror or seeing that same picture as a vase with curves (the profile of which resembles .... a person's profile.)
 
Learning to not take appearances at face value, to not always go with one's first impression and thought in terms of hearing someone can help people acknowledge their reactions but then become more thoughtful and even evaluative of their responses. Having feelings does not mean one has to be taken over by one's feelings or that actions flowing from feelings should be done automatically.
 
Someone who is 'easily angered or otherwise overcome with emotions' may be able to learn ways to 'trace the dance of feelings and thoughts, beliefs and past experiences.' Sometimes with curiousity alongside emotions people can gain more control over their emotions... and again see they are generally tied to thoughts and beliefs, even unconscious ones. 
 
Such reflections can be done even after an experience if one can't find a way to take a walk, calm down or talk to someone to ride an emotional storm or set of feelings out with support...allowing the flow but not necessarily a runaway outplaying of emotions.Ideally all people would have coaching early and often in parenting and caring for infants and young children on up as well as older children, teens, adults and others who may need more coaching and support with practice much like learning to read and write.
 
Playing well with others can start by paying closer attention to one's own experiences, but with a lot of help for How to Do That... There are books by Faber and Mazlish and many others about parenting on these levels.
 
We could use more about parents and adults in every part of the world creating 'common sense and care' agreements to provide a safety network for youth and teens and even young adults to engage in with clear boundaries and guidance for using free time, going places and doing things with accountability.
 
Even if it is not turned into laws or enforceable as community guidelines, it is worth talking about and getting more people to join in doing voluntarily, much like safe precautions at this time of a worldwide concern of Corona Virus 19 (and also to be more aware about effects of 5G and possibly advocate for slowing down that planned implementation.) There are some resources online discussing those points, such as NoLiesRadio.org (which has a lot to shed light on WW2 and 9/11/01 concerns for serious investigations as to what transpired physically for which there is evidence and some lawsuits filed to hear in the past few years in NYC) in the US.)
 
While not everyone is infomed about everything, some starting points and resources are here on Livfully.org This could be a prototype for any number of professionals joining together in the spirit of collaborating and learning to see the world with new multi-faceted informed eyes.
 
What seems an insurmountable task (even like caring for someone such as an elder who does not want help) maybe more likely achieved by befriending that person and having someone else pay for care until the person is more able and willing to accept that is reasonable
. If they cannot do so and are endangering others (particularly with driving and no one monitoring them for instance) and themselves then there maybe new ways to intervene, but likely they would accept rides and creative solutions to have their basic needs met.
 
Sometimes overspending or not budgeting well is a sign of mental dysfunction, short-term or longer. Ideally everyone could be open to having someone help them monitor their basic budgets and needs, life skills and optios for help short-term even online or via phone and some monitoring if not actual assisting.
 
These are the 'softer skills' that can prevent someone from declining or making rash moves (even sudden sales of stocks or loans of money to family or friends or falling prey to phone or mail scams or actual places that should not be taking money from people who do not have a clear understanding as to whether they can afford that.)
 
Websites to 'review matters and get infomed Before You Donate, or Open Mail or Pick Up the Phone or Open a Link would be helpful for everyone to be able to reference, much like snopes.com can help clarify what is 'real versus a fake' story or claim.
 
That said there's plenty more to consider and for people of every age group. Learning what Can Help in terms of making plans, having insurance for one's health, car, home, belongings (renter's insurance,) travel or other specific forms and life insurance (again with some good input for a few trustworthy accredited resources) would make sense for people to learn about early in life.
 
Same with the process of living in an apartment, a home or other living space for a fee or practically to keep things functional. Some things we take for granted could be mapped out.
 
There could even be 'cleaning routines' recommended to suit various kinds of households to help people pace themselves (and their team whether in their family and friend circle or hired help.) Keeping valuables locked in a special place makes sense rather than 'trusting someone' to not take cash, use a credit card or even have access to personal information about accounts and computers.
 
Most people are trustworthy but not all. When times are tough sometimes people one should be able to trust can take advantage or blur lines. So better to clarify boundaries even for houseguests in writing for oneself at least and ideally be able to post something in a friendly way as to any allergies, concerns about locking doors, leaving valuables about, using a kitchen and staying close to anything being cooked and concerns about pets, children and even opening windows.
 
Someone had a guest from another country who immediately thought to open a window in an apartment on a high floor. Rather that have a note on the window clarifying it should never be opened because the air conditioner was not secured, the hosts were shocked to see their AC Unit fly off the window ledge.
 
Thankfully no one on the patio below where it fell was hurt but it could have been curtains. No matter the laws of any state, likely if there is an A/C unit in a window there could be notice voluntarily put in place about Not Opening the Windows!
 
Okay so that's a practical launch point and I hope people can enjoy the sense of piecing wisdon together from wherever it comes to benefit oneself and others. We can know what to do but need to remember that and keep tweaking our lives and 'tending to our gardens of life' to have more good come our ways, individually and collectively. There is actually a lot of mirroring in our life experiences, whether direct or indirect, so let's lean into the positive possibilities.
 
Our local situation with our teen son Kaelan Palmer Paton's desire to put his life on the line to help his friends is one we see playing out by medical people and those willing to help others above themselves.
 
 More consideration about what is 'reasonable or possible' to do is prompting stronger measures, yet there are 'no easy answers to assure how things will play out." Clarifying that 'how we live not mainly how long we live' may be worth exploring in many aspects of our lives with teams and venues such as this blog, Livfully.org...and others of course. This is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg...one I'd hope would be like an icecream cone of meaningful scoops and important inquiry.
 
 Having teams of 'thinkers and ways to allow people to have basic care needs met' likely with more 'carin' and sharin' (in memory of two friends KarenKisslinger.com and Sharon Robinson who were both community leaders for promoting friendship, safety and healthy interactions and living.)
 
 I explore many of these topics on Livfully.org and hope more people can take this opportunity to enjoy their inner experience of this profound time, ask meaningful questions and be ready to listen to their hearts as well as those of others to find greater ways to respond with compassion and wisdom as this difficult yet amazing time in our lives and in our shared world.
 
There are many rooting for us near and far and even among the stars, so let's have hope that things will bode well for us energetically and spiritually and trust the physical outplaying will be met with our higher values.
 
Taking deep breaths, getting good sleep, being honest about our journeys and seeking healing on all levels can smooth the way with gratitude for all team players and for the love that comes from above and our souls.
