This day has dawned with hope and relative quiet.  There are unseen actions certainly; dramas playing out on this 2012 stage.  Yet here the sun shines and the birds repeat their spring song – “All is Well”, “All is Well”, “All is Well”.

This is a moment to reflect. What am I doing and why am I doing it?  December 21^st, 2012 will arrive in less time than it takes to grow a baby.  We are at the point now when the discovery is usually made – you’ve missed a cycle. After twenty dollars and a few anxious moments you are looking at the truth – you are pregnant. 

Once I called that 800 number on the skinny, pink Early Pregnancy Test box, not believing what was in front of my eyes.  I sort of blurted out “How pink does it have to be?”  I could hear the nurse smile as she responded “Congratulations!”

So, Congratulations!  In just 8 months our new world will be born.  We’ve sort of settled on a name (“Next Dimension”) but beyond that is anyone’s guess.  Specifics and personality are as yet undetermined.  We can’t do much about that part anyway.  The one thing we can do is take care of ourselves, the number one priority of every mother to be.

You are a microcosmic version of what is happening to us all – oneness.  This shift in consciousness is here and you are it. Perhaps, as in a human pregnancy, you’ve been a little bit ill and have had to change your eating habits and rest a bit more.  There’s a sense that these alterations have not quite “fixed” the problem.  This would be true.  This is not a problem to be fixed but a process to be lived.

A field of yellow catches my eye and I turn to enjoy the view.  This little patch of dirt, squished between cement sidewalk and highway, is awash with color on this rainy spring morning.  I am surprised.  I drive by here every day and have never noticed.  A closer look offers an answer, these are weeds.

Relentless and persistent, dandelions thrive anywhere.  Regardless of product used, money spent or effort given, the battle seems won by the weed. 

A dear friend of mine loves them and looks forward to their emergence.  It does seem to be merely a preference instead of a fact that dandelions are an eyesore.  You’d be hard pressed to tell the difference from a distance between a field of daffodils and a field of dandelions.  One you plant, the other you pull.

We have in our midst many “weeds” that are about to be pulled.  They must be.  Like the plant, once they gain strength in an area they choke out all other life.  All resources support them.  Nothing else can thrive.  It is the way weeds work, in human and plant form.  They know nothing else but to infiltrate and dominate.

“Weeds” are not less than the rest of us.  They are not supportive however and it is time to get rid of them.  We can no longer thrive with them in our midst.  The movie bearing that name illustrates what has been happening.

This is what we are doing as a race.  We are removing those that would take over and destroy the rest.  It is necessary in order to continue.  Hating the dandelion or getting angry at it is not productive.  A clean removal of the entire plant must be accomplished.  We have discovered the root and we are digging it out.  We want a field of different flowers now.  We want to plant them ourselves rather than being overrun. 

I am Sananda, with words of encouragement for everlasting peace, for you are the Key and the Source for this endeavor, my dear friends.

Many times you ask the question, when will there be peace, all encompassing peace,

for all to see, and experience and enjoy?  You know the answer, deep inside you, all of you. It is in your hearts. It comes from there. It always has.

From the time you fell into duality, you have known this, but it has been replaced and covered up with the need to blame others. You lost your knowledge of the Source and so you journeyed far and wide searching for the truth of it.

Now you are coming back to Source, to the Truth in your hearts. And you are discovering that every breath you take, every thought you have, creates Peace or it doesn’t. It is not what your neighbors are thinking or doing; it is what you are thinking and doing, and they will thus be able to connect to your vibration and it builds from there.

You all know this, but how much do you realize that in this moment you can make a greater difference than you have previously thought? Imagine a world of Peace, but first imagine and connect with the Peace in your hearts. What is covering it up? What is holding it down? Is it resentment, fear, or hate? You have a chance now to wash it away with the intense energies coming into you now.

Please try to avoid the tendency to look around you and see what is not peaceful, what is not Love, and generate Love and Peace from within you, daily, minute by minute, dear friends. You are the Key, you are the Source,  you are the impetus for change. It has to be your focus, every thought and action you make ~ Peace comes from you.

On January 1^st, 2012 I released a video entitled “Message to Off World Beings”.  Yesterday, I got an answer.  It came in the form of an interaction with someone speaking for the “Forces of One”.  You can see what was said in the video bearing that name. Both can be found here and on the you-tube channel. 

And that’s the back story to what will most likely be my focus for the rest of this year – Making A Choice – everything else sort of pales in comparison. 

I’ve read and re-read the transcript and although I cannot point to my partner in the conversation, I can tell you how it felt.  It felt epic.  The power coming with the words sort of washed over me.  I felt them before I read them.  I’ve had to look up a few of the terms he used since then, but there is no mistaking how I felt.  I was in the presence of a force unlike any other I have known here. 

The video, “Message to Off World Beings” was released to remind us of our own power, with the added intent of contact.  It fact, I was contacted telepathically a few days after it was released.  I was woken up and spoken to; that energy was exuberant and joyful yet the voice was in my head – I doubted its authenticity. 

This contact was not in my head, it was on a you-tube channel.  Really.  You can check it out for yourself by reading the comments below the video: “Message to Off World Beings”.

This only amplifies what has always been primary – Love.  We are without a doubt far more powerful than we imagine ourselves to be.  We are deciding the fate of the planet. The choice we make this year determines the direction for all of life.

It’s really windy today.

Things are moving quickly, even the air.  The wind outside is pushing the air through the budding trees and growing grass.  Without any other options, they move.  I’ve seen a hawk this morning, coasting for a bit on these currents of air, hunting.  He is utilizing what is in front of him, expanding his opportunities, seeing places he may not always see on his usual path.  Perhaps, by riding this breeze, he can relax a bit and not work so hard to get where he is going; focusing his sights on the goal. 

The tree will grow and the hawk will eat, yet for one today’s gale force winds are a boon, while for the other they are potentially damaging.  The tree, rooted and stationary, is losing branches as I watch.  The hawk in flight is about to enjoy a hearty meal.  Let’s be hawks.

These winds of change are blowing through every facet of our world.  We can ride them or resist, the choice is always ours.  The opportunity before us is clear; fear or love.  The wind will blow regardless.  We can lose branches or rise to new heights, depending on which we choose.

A focus on love will allow us to soar.  We were meant to fly, to see beyond the ground on which we walk, to capitalize on every opportunity.  The wind is only a problem if you are unable to move.  It can be a source of power, unseen yet potent.

View these changes as that necessary force to take you where you haven’t been until now.  This is as you have planned it and the propulsion of energy has arrived right on time.  We are ready now.  Our power is enhanced with this wind and not diminished.  As a collective we will see some branches lost.  We are strengthened by this and not damaged, growing ever stronger.
