Better Connected / Better Together

I think it was Brene Brown who told a story about a village where all the women washed clothes together down by the river. When they all got washing machines, there was a sudden outbreak of depression and no one could figure out why.

It wasn’t the washing machines in and of themselves. It was the absence of time spent doing things together. It was the absence of community.

Friends, we’ve gotten so independent.

We’re “fine” we tell ourselves even when in reality we’re depressed, we’re overwhelmed, we’re lonely, and we’re hurting. “We’re fine, we’re just too busy right now” we say when days, weeks, months, and years go by without connecting with friends. I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine. It’s so easy to say even when it’s not true.

We’ve become so isolated and it’s hard to know how to get back. It’s so hard to know how to even begin to build the kind of relationships our hearts need. And I think In our current culture, it’s just not as organic as it once was. It’s more work now.

Because you know, we have our own washing machines. We don’t depend on each other to do laundry, or cook dinner, or raise babies anymore. We don’t really depend on each other for much of anything if we’re being honest.

In Brene Brown’s book Braving the Wilderness, she says that being lonely effects the length of our life expectancy similar to smoking 15 cigarettes a day. I don’t say that to freak anyone out, but to let you know that the longing for connection is LEGIT. I think we’ve treated friendship like a luxury for far too long; friendship isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity.

We don’t want it. We kind of need it.

Be independent. Be proud of it. But be an independent woman who realizes the value and the importance of opening the door to other good women.

You can do it alone, but you don’t have to. Islands are only fun for so long.

There is true magic when women come together and hold hands and share ideas and share stories and struggles and endless bowls of salsa. You use your gifts, and I’ll use mine, and then we’ll invite that girl over there who brings a completely different set of skills to the table we are building, and we’ll watch together as something miraculous unfolds.

Soul Level Exhaustion

Just finished channelling this as I asked for help, and it was immediately received.

I know that so many on this journey are also feeling this soul-level exhaustion. To the point of giving in. My journey is yours also.

I hope that this helps you too. ~ Peter Uppman ❤️🙏

—

‘You have given your all with strength and compulsion. That which impresses upon you at every moment.

To give.

Of love, purity, acceptance, with much as you can understand with what is occurring for you.

This has always been your journey.

Now is the time dear one, where you feel that you have had enough.

That your journey has not been of any great worth, other than the amazing wisdom in which you have garnered.

You could not be any more incorrect in this thinking, dear one.

All that you have received is that of a complete overhaul of what once was.

You have begun anew.

With the new level of love and understanding.

This has been your journey to remembrance.

To give with all you are, despite those who have turned away in anger, in misfortune and not understanding.

And you continue to give.

And this is what we have implored upon you to do.

You say that you are soul-level exhausted and of course dear one, you are exactly this.

Because you have emptied yourself of the old paradigm, the old ways of doing and believing and thinking.

And topped yourself up so to speak, with that which is pouring into you, of absolute love.

You feel that this could not be the case Jophiel, because it causes you such sadness, such pain, to continue to give with a yearning like none other to someone who does not recognise your Being.

And yet, you continue to think and to wonder and to question.

Because this is your journey.

To find the strength from within.

It must come from such a depth of understanding, and acceptance, in order to be able to give to ‘without’.

This has been your journey to love.

To give with ALL that is within you.

Now dear soul, All that is within you is a different playing field, a different level again to what once was.

You are starting a renewed journey.

One that is based on a purity of soul and belief, like you have never once thought could be possible.

You feel this intensely within you.

The yearning for another.

The yearning for a connection of purity.

It is within you dear one to continue to give.

Because it compels of you to do so.

It is another who you are yearning for although as we have already said, it is not another that is your journey.

It is your Self, finding Self.

Which is the purity of love in which you have garnered.’

(Archangel Jophiel)

Artist normal.

“I’ve seen women insist on cleaning everything in the house before they could sit down to write… and you know it’s a funny thing about housecleaning… it never comes to an end. Perfect way to stop a woman. A woman must be careful to not allow over-responsibility (or over-respectabilty) to steal her necessary creative rests, riffs, and raptures. She simply must put her foot down and say no to half of what she believes she “should” be doing. Art is not meant to be created in stolen moments only.”

Bee Kind

My dad has bees.Today I went to his house and he showed me all of the honey he had gotten from the hives. He took the lid off of a 5 gallon bucket full of honey and on top of the honey there were 3 little bees, struggling. They were covered in sticky honey and drowning. I asked him if we could help them and he said he was sure they wouldn’t survive. Casualties of honey collection I suppose.

I asked him again if we could at least get them out and kill them quickly, after all he was the one who taught me to put a suffering animal (or bug) out of its misery. He finally conceded and scooped the bees out of the bucket. He put them in an empty Chobani yogurt container and put the plastic container outside.

Because he had disrupted the hive with the earlier honey collection, there were bees flying all over outside.

We put the 3 little bees in the container on a bench and left them to their fate. My dad called me out a little while later to show me what was happening. These three little bees were surrounded by all of their sisters (all of the bees are females) and they were cleaning the sticky nearly dead bees, helping them to get all of the honey off of their bodies. We came back a short time later and there was only one little bee left in the container. She was still being tended to by her sisters.

When it was time for me to leave we checked one last time and all three of the bees had been cleaned off enough to fly away and the container was empty.

Those three little bees lived because they were surrounded by family and friends who would not give up on them, family and friends who refused to let them drown in their own stickiness and resolved to help until the last little bee could be set free.

Bee Sisters. Bee Peers. Bee Teammates.

We could all learn a thing or two from these bees.

Bee kind always.

The Letter M & it’s meaning

Picture number 2 is my left hand , and yes it’s a letter M , which both hands have..

DO YOU HAVE AN “M”IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND?

Chiromancy is an ancient method of predicting the future and interpretation of a person’s personality from the pattern of the lines of the hands. Sometimes these lines can form even numbers and letters.

One of these letters may be the letter M, whose meaning has been researched by many mystics.

As many believe, the lines on the palm reveal our character and destiny.

The letter M is meant for very special people.

They have extraordinary intuition and are the ideal partners for any business.

If the people you love have the special letter M inside the palm, you need to know that you cannot make fun of and you cannot lie or cheat in any way to that person.

By being very intelligent and intuitive, people with the letter M on the palm of their hand easily notice they are being lied to or fooled.

Women who have the letter M on their palm have a stronger intuition than men, even those who own this letter.

They are endowed with the power to manage and overcome any obstacle in life, and they know how to exploit the resources and opportunities presented to them.

The letter “M” on your palm can also mean:

• Leadership skills

• Power

• Happiness

• Excellent opportunities

According to popular tradition, this sign is characteristic of the prophets.. So, if you have this letter in your hand, you’re really a special person! Some have it in one hand and others in both. When you have it on both it multitudes ✌🏽💕💜

Promise- Frank Zappa

“None of us have the promise of tomorrow. God forbid this is my last day on this beautiful earth, it won’t be spent listening to some news person telling me how rotten we are, how rotten life is, heck no, I’m going out and seeing how beautiful life is.

As humans, our time on this planet is very limited…

Turn off, tune out, and turn on your life. Peace.”

~Frank Zappa

Hate vs Love

Are you familiar with Dr. Emoto’s rice experiment?

Verbal abuse and negative energy is REAL!

After 27 days of telling one jar of rice (rice absorbs energy) “I love you” (nice and fluffy rice) and and telling the other “I hate you” (dark and spoil)

Watch that you say to people but most importantly watch what you say to yourself.

After watching videos about manifesting your reality & how you have to vibrate from a place of love… a light bulb went off in my head- I am the hate jar! How could I possibly vibrate in love when I get daily negative statements spoken over me and at me?
