Going thru a hole or a door ? Chief White Eagle

Hopi Indian Chief White Eagle commented a few days ago on the current global situation:

“This moment that humanity is living through can be considered a door or a hole. The decision to fall into the hole or go through the door is yours.

If you consume information 24 hours a day, with negative energy, constantly nervous, with pessimism, you will fall into this hole.

But if you take the opportunity to look at yourself, to rethink life and death, to take care of yourself and others, you will go through the door.

Take care of your home, take care of your body. Connect with your spiritual home. When you take care of yourself, you take care of others at the same time.

Do not underestimate the spiritual dimension of this crisis. Adopt the perspective of an eagle that sees everything from above with a broader vision.

There is a social demand in this crisis, but also a spiritual demand. The two go hand in hand. Without the social dimension, we fall into fanaticism. Without the spiritual dimension, we fall into pessimism and futility.

You are prepared to go through this crisis.

Grab your toolbox and use all the tools at your disposal. Learn to resist by the example of the Indian and African peoples: we have been and continue to be exterminated.

* But we never stopped singing, dancing, lighting fires and having joy.

Don’t feel guilty for feeling lucky in these difficult times. Being sad and without energy doesn’t help at all.

* Resilience is resilience through joy!

You have the right to be strong and positive. You have to maintain a beautiful, cheerful and bright posture.

This has nothing to do with alienation (ignorance of the world). It is a strategy of resistance.

When we walk in the door, we have a new view of the world because we have faced our fears and difficulties.

This is what you can do now:

– Serenity in the storm,

– Keep calm, meditate daily,

– Make a habit of encountering the sacred every day.

Demonstrate resilience through art, joy, trust and love.”

( I honestly don’t know if the identity of Chief White Eagle is real. Real or not the essence of this message feels important to consider)

Music truth

I had a date with music

but memories came along.

They never had an invite

but joined in every song.

My tears met my face.

They were here to stay.

So many memories

I had locked away.

They sat down beside me.

They looked me in the eyes.

As I relived the moments.

Laughter drowned my cries.

I had a date with music

but memories came along.

They never had an invite

but we danced to every song.

Heavy Heart

A Heavy Heart

You think she’s angry, but you don’t see,

The weight she carries silently.

It’s not the rage that fills her eyes,

But tiredness in a thin disguise.

She’s not furious, but worn and torn,

From dreams abandoned, hopes forlorn.

She’s tired, she’s weary, she’s feeling lost,

Paying life’s relentless cost.

She’s sinking deep in a sea of doubt,

Crying softly, without a shout.

Frustration builds, but not from hate

It’s the closed doors, the heavy weight.

She promised much, her dreams were bright,

But now she battles every night.

She wants to give, to rise, to shine,

But life’s harsh currents pull the line.

So when you see her weary stare,

Know it’s not anger, but despair.

She’s fighting hard to find her way,

Hoping tomorrow’s a kinder day.🥀🌷

Something sacred is coming our way

That is how my ancestors would have said it. In the midst of all this turmoil and confusion, when we cannot clearly see the path before us, when we feel trapped in a situation we cannot control, then I believe the wise elders of my holy heritage would climb to the high place of the heart, draw the circle of reason and faith around them, and stand to sing their prayers into the open sky of the history to come.

They would not shrink into a corner afraid, but rise up to catch the first light of what was coming into being all around them.

We are living in a time of emergence.

We are the witnesses to a great renewal.

The world is full of the fear of birth and change, but that transformation will one day be our blessing.

Do not be afraid, but be believing.

Come to the place where the ancestors are already standing.

Come and see.

Something sacred is coming this way.

Hermit

Sometimes, when everything gets too overwhelming, I just shut myself off.

I ignore the calls, let the messages sit unread, and retreat to a place where I can just be alone. It’s not about running away from anyone – it’s about giving myself space to breathe. There’s a strange comfort in stepping back from the world, letting myself sit in the quiet, and just feeling whatever I need to feel without explaining it to anyone.

I think we all have days like that – when even the smallest noise feels like too much. So I let myself turn it all down. I take time to sort through my own thoughts, to just sit with what’s weighing on me.

It’s not easy, but sometimes, facing it alone brings a kind of calm that nothing else can. And slowly, piece by piece, I find my way back to myself, a little stronger, a little clearer.

Love of your life

“sometimes the love of your life isn’t really the love of your life. sometimes you think you belong to someone to only discover that some where down the line you don’t. sometimes that person is only there to prepare you for someone great, for someone different and someone you were born for. Sometimes you think it’s the end of the world to only find out that it is really the beginning. sometimes old things teach you new things and sometimes new things mean nothing at all. Sometimes the past gives you the strength to face the future and sometimes the future is brighter than you think it is. sometimes when you know think you know, it only means you know nothing at all. sometimes you arrive to only find out you’ve never even left to begin with. sometimes what you love isn’t good for you and sometimes what’s bad heals you in ways you’d never imagine. sometimes when you fall you fly and sometimes when you break you’re gathering yourself back together again. sometimes mistakes don’t teach you much and sometimes a book holds revelations too hard to ignore. sometimes there’s so much in you that you don’t know where to begin and sometimes when you finally begin it feels as if it is too late. sometimes you love the wrong people while other times the wrong people bring you peace. and last but not least, sometimes you have to let go and free yourself in order to begin all over again.”

Real Friends

REAL FRIENDS CAN’T BE LOST

“You cannot lose real friends.

You just can’t.

They won’t go, no matter how hard you push them away when you are not yourself.

They will wait

and wait

and wait,

until they see a tiny glimmer of your light breaking through

and back they will come with open arms.

Your real friends are still there.

And if they feel lost to you right now,

perhaps it’s because they are lost to themselves.

Just wait

and wait

and wait,

then knock on that door,

reach in, just in case they can’t reach out.

And do it again until they answer.

If you are feeling sad about the people you have ‘lost’ along the way my friend,

don’t.

They were never yours to keep.

The real ones don’t need to be earned, or appeased, or coaxed.

They are in it for the long haul and for all the right reasons.

And each of those friends is worth a dozen fair-weather,

so count your lucky stars if you have one.

Keep your circle small but let its light be mighty.

You can’t lose real friends, they just won’t go.”

Pairing by Whispers from the Heart

Let Go of those people that you are unprepared to love you 😘

Let go the people who are not prepared to love you. This is the hardest thing you will have to do in your life and it will also be the most important thing. Stop having hard conversations with people who don’t want change.

Best gifts for your loved ones

Stop showing up for people who have no interest in your presence. I know your instinct is to do everything to earn the appreciation of those around you, but it’s a boost that steals your time, energy, mental and physical health.

When you begin to fight for a life with joy, interest and commitment, not everyone will be ready to follow you in this place. This doesn’t mean you need to change what you are, it means you should let go of the people who aren’t ready to accompany you.

If you are excluded, insulted, forgotten or ignored by the people you give your time to, you don’t do yourself a favor by continuing to offer your energy and your life. The truth is that you are not for everyone and not everyone is for you.

That’s what makes it so special when you meet people who reciprocate love. You will know how precious you are.

The more time you spend trying to make yourself loved by someone who is unable to, the more time you waste depriving yourself of the possibility of this connection to someone else.

There are billions of people on this planet and many of them will meet with you at your level of interest and commitment.

The more you stay involved with people who use you as a pillow, a background option or a therapist for emotional healing, the longer you stay away from the community you want.

Maybe if you stop showing up, you won’t be wanted. Maybe if you stop trying, the relationship will end. Maybe if you stop texting your phone will stay dark for weeks. That doesn’t mean you ruined the relationship, it means the only thing holding it back was the energy that only you gave to keep it. This is not love, it’s attachment. It’s wanting to give a chance to those who don’t deserve it. You deserve so much, there are people who should not be in your life.

The most valuable thing you have in your life is your time and energy, and both are limited. When you give your time and energy, it will define your existence.

When you realize this, you begin to understand why you are so anxious when you spend time with people, in activities, places or situations that don’t suit you and shouldn’t be around you, your energy is stolen.

You will begin to realize that the most important thing you can do for yourself and for everyone around you is to protect your energy more fiercely than anything else. Make your life a safe haven, in which only ′′compatible′′ people are allowed.

You are not responsible for saving anyone. You are not responsible for convincing them to improve. It’s not your work to exist for people and give your life to them! If you feel bad, if you feel compelled, you will be the root of all your problems, fearing that they will not return the favours you have granted. It’s your only obligation to realize that you are the love of your destiny and accept the love you deserve.

Decide that you deserve true friendship, commitment, true and complete love with healthy and prosperous people. Then wait and see how much everything begins to change. Don’t waste time with people who are not worth it. Change will give you the love, the esteem, happiness and the protection you deserve”
