One Toke over the Line

To my delight this song found me tonight and I giggled as it started to play.

I smoked a good bit of pot at age 19, and as in most of my formative years…behind schedule . So it was 1971 , it was extremely affordable to buy , however my wages were very low , since I decided not to use my certification in Cosmetology, until it helped in selling cosmetics.

The older ladies were sweet , had the more famous thus more profitable lines , and that was ok.. I wasn’t focused on riches , just in having enough .

I enjoyed doing inventory and stock work.

I don’t think I envisioned the legalization of pot , as it was common to find me deeply in the country at friends and a ” family ” type part would be overnight…

It is a good thing to witness this birth of New Earth , I finally can breath and smile at my knowing in the early 80s , I wanted to be closer to God on this mountain.. I kept the faith and my focus and I am rewarded with the life I dreamed of in my late 30s , when I considered life, after our sons had moved out .

I never got to that place with our children.

Lots of hellish years of darkness .

And now I’m here ….in the country , soon to have that yard and freedom, liberated from the obstacles that are boomerangs to those who participated in my journey negatively .

No fear …..

trusting my visions, my truth and I have survived these 13 years . I lurch just now , and soon I will have news on my own home, through the love, support of the most loving friend..and there be ample places to walk..

It will be a return , triumphant… it is a sign and my peace is so assured , I nodded out after spaghetti dinner, lol. It is time to rest and just be .

Timothy Leary . Be YOU

Admit it. You aren’t like them. You’re not even close. You may occasionally dress yourself up as one of them, watch the same mindless television shows as they do, maybe even eat the same fast food sometimes. But it seems that the more you try to fit in, the more you feel like an outsider, watching the “normal people” as they go about their automatic existences. For every time you say club passwords like “Have a nice day” and “Weather’s awful today, eh?”, you yearn inside to say forbidden things like “Tell me something that makes you cry” or “What do you think deja vu is for?”

Face it, you even want to talk to that girl in the elevator. But what if that girl in the elevator (and the balding man who walks past your cubicle at work) are thinking the same thing? Who knows what you might learn from taking a chance on conversation with a stranger? Everyone carries a piece of the puzzle. Nobody comes into your life by mere coincidence. Trust your instincts. Do the unexpected. Find the others. ~Timothy Leary

Shine a Little Light – James Taylor

This song popped up this morning and it’s absolutely perfect, given the state of affairs they wish us to believe .

I’ve heard reference to a revolution coming 3 times , and I so hope it’s a matter of evolution and with no blood shed .

” They ” want us to war over things especially each other.

I truest believe we can and we will reveal our power to gain the changes we need in each and every life on this path of liberation of the soul . To love and be loved , to live in balance and harmony with the world and each other .

We are so close and we can handle what is pathetic , and distorted leaders and money mongers .

It has begun .😘🙏🏼👍
