What does it really mean to awaken? It is fair to say that awakening is a journey from limitation to freedom — from unconscious to conscious. Whether you intentionally choose to take this journey or an unexpected experience propels you onto the path, once you start, there is no turning back.

It is true that the journey might be quite arduous at times, but no matter how long or challenging, the extraordinary destination far exceeds any bumps and bruises along the way. The end result of full awakening is freedom from personal suffering, clarity of mind, boundless joy, inner peace and the ability to live an incredibly fulfilling life. The awakened state holds everything we have ever desired, and so much more.

There may be times when you feel that not a single person on the planet hears you.  You may speak and no one is listening.  You may be doing your very best to be understood and all you will get in response are blank stares.  Take heart, my lovely one; there is always One that hears, listens and understands what you are saying and going through.  Remember to breathe and quiet yourself….the responses to what you are asking are there. ~ Creator

Easter Sunday is a festival and holiday celebrated by millions of people around the world who honour the resurrection of Jesus from the dead, described in the New Testament as having occurred three days after his crucifixion at Calvary. It is also the day that children excitedly wait for the Easter bunny to arrive and deliver their treats of chocolate eggs. Easter is a ‘movable feast’ which is chosen to correspond with the first Sunday following the full moon after the March equinox, and occurs on different dates around the world since western churches use the Gregorian calendar, while eastern churches use the Julian calendar. So where did this ‘movable feast’ begin, and what are the origins of the traditions and customs celebrated on this important day around the world?

We would like to say that your ascension symptoms could be seen merely as growing pains. Think of a child that is having a growth spurt. They have a greater need for sleep, they may be irritable, the may eat a lot, they may have aches and pains. You respond by giving them exactly what they need, reassuring them, and focusing on the positive aspect of it, growth, in a matter of fact way.

The same it is for you with your evolution. So many of you have wanted tangible proof of the Shift that is occurring on your planet. Most of you would agree that it is undeniable that something profound is happening energetically. As with all things, the Shift occurs internally before it is experienced in an external fashion. The child has the symptoms and then you can actually see the growth. The same it is with your planet.

These are wonderful and glorious times! We urge you to joyfully embrace the process with wonder and gratitude for these are the exact times your soul has contracted to experience and couldn’t wait to be a part of. ~Archangel Gabriel

God said:

How you look at life makes a huge difference in how your life plays out. This is not a new thought. You can give Me all the reasons from here to Tuesday why you don't think this is so. Perhaps you were a positive thinker once, and your positivity got smashed. Now you call yourself realistic as if the pessimism for what passes as realism is a great thing. Predict the realistic down-side, you say, and you proudly wave the flag of the down-side.

Beloveds, what do you want to bet on? That you are doomed to mediocrity or worse, failure? There is no failing when you give life a whirl. Get away from limited thinking. Everything does not have to turn out as your heart's desire.

Look, if you want pumpernickel bread for your sandwich, and you get rye bread instead, do you have a conniption? Hey, you got bread. You got a sandwich. You don't have to make a big deal of it. Tomorrow is another day. And today is not dark because you didn't get rye bread. On the other hand, you don't want to predict that, realistically, you likely won't get what you want.

Of course, there are bigger matters in the world in which everything is a comparison and, alas, your true love turns out not to be your true love. Okay, you were mistaken. What you wanted to be true and what seemed true – wasn't true or wasn't true for long.

Are you a bigger fool to have ventured and lost (as you see it) than to have pushed away the possibility of your true love to begin with?
