Smile by Judy Garland

Far from gloom and doom , I find my heart smiles

these days growing and expanding in peace and

harmony with as much as possible.

Awareness of deep pain, or covert mask has been

augmented , and thus in the healing process.

Awareness of shadow , and abilities to transform it

returning to comfort in heart , and mind , still contends

with body .. tweaking my diet plus clearing past

travesties of justice for sons and I , a few confidants

whom I treasure , as I’m on my own..I am in awe

and grateful beyond measure .

Smiles that greet me , hug my soul as I am received in

welcome … home…I am where I need and want to be

with great expectations of experiencing cheeks that ache

from smiling …eyes that are like waterfalls with tears

of release , equal to smiles …an ocean of tears

and fears/anger transformed , transmuted to love , and in

that peace ☮️..authentic smiles are cellular

All is well with my soul 🥰✊

Our local drummers , just a slice of how beautiful they are and what a gift 🎁

they are to our community .

Why do I like Drumming?

Observe your mind right

now. What do you notice? Is it sitting still? Is it a very skinny marathon gerbil with a sweatband and long beard in a fast moving wheel longing for stillness? Did you just try to picture that, lol? Me too, I’ll admit…..

.…..When I sit in front of my djembe, it is a tool for me, through its potential expressions, and what I actually create, to notice my present state of being. It’s like a metaphysical mirror for my being, reflecting to me, who I am at that moment. My thoughts, my beliefs, emotions, etc…

..… Now imagine with me,that you spent an hour holding your attention on just three sounds a djembe can create: the bass, tone, and slap. Perhaps you might feel rested and energized strangely, having let that gerbil take a break from its endless running. And when you hold your attention on something so direct and simple (my students would laugh at that statement), the rest of your being begins to still……

“The Cost Of Sanity, In This Society, Is A Certain Level Of Alienation”

This reality has come and gone , in my life, and I am very Thankful

to be aware, awake , and released from the matrix that swallows up

individuality and creativity ..

Spiritually in a desert , became extremely intense after motherhood

became impossible with shadow that rejoiced with my induced

addiction , plucking my bones until details could be cemented

as the living death of Alienation from all I was, knew , was removed

in a show of force that I’m never knowing when he will attempt

to execute his power..

Consider the pins and needles of a marriage to a person who has

no steadiness ,who erupts , in such revelation of sickness of soul

and fearing walking away .. with proof increased since my waking

the tricks , threats , lies have an air of desperation these last 2 years .

Imperative to clear old business, allow individual choices without

threat ,

The late psychonaut/philosopher Terence McKenna once said “The cost of sanity, in this society, is a certain level of alienation,” and I think my regular readers will immediately and experientially…

Pain Relief

Guidance suggested this frequency for pain, 174 HZ

Guidance through a musician , Christopher , suggested

HZ , which became my white noise, which has lulled

me to sleep off and on through my life .

I prefer the sounds of nature , but have had extended

periods that required white noise , as I have cassettes,

CDs , and books on sleep.. I totally made my bedroom

a statuary dedicated to comfortable sleep 💤..

Tested , even in my relocation to my mountain , as I’m

currently in an apartment , with much interference

on many levels , but I still manage to balance out here.

Remnants of too many test , currently my spleen and

pancreas , have left me depleted .. I do what I can ,

so currently , I’m nesting on my own , infrequently

popping out and totally enjoying myself ..the next day I

Self nurture ..

Part of this , thanks to Christopher’s suggestion , is HZ

frequency …and then yesterday , 174 HZ for pain releif .

I have provided only one as an example ; there are many

choices ..

Strongly suggest a trail, perhaps an elder could benefit

or a child in distress or you … 🎁✊♐️😍

Always

For All My Relations.
“Always give before you take.
It could be a gift, the tobacco, a prayer, a song, whatever you have. Give first before receiving.
Always be kind.
You never know the journey someone else has had to take, and they don’t know yours. We all have burdens. If we are kind we lighten all our loads.
Always be in prayer.
Thank the Creator for your life and for all life on this beautiful Mother Earth. Our time is short, but we can make our mark last forever.
Always live in your purpose.
If you don’t know what it is, then serve. Serve others and your purpose will find you. But serve as a warrior, not as a slave. Serve to strengthen others through your example, do not weaken them by doing everything for them.
Always honour the hoop.
We live together, we die together, we laugh together and we cry together. No one is higher, no one is lower.
Always speak in your true voice.
There is strength in you the world has never seen. Show your strength. Build it. Use it to create peace and as a blessing to those around you.
Always drink clean water
Water is Mother Earth’s milk. Drink deeply many times a day and clean your body.
Always exercise your body.
You have been given a vessel to house your spirit. Treat it with the deepest respect and give it the gift of health, stamina, and endurance.
Always sleep deeply.
Sleep long and sleep deep, for it is in your dreams inspiration comes. Give the Creator ample time to speak to you.
Always, always love yourself.
If you will find one good thing about yourself and another and another, you will learn to fulfill your purpose. And when you love yourself, you will know how to honestly love another.
Hiy hiy.”
