believeinlove.gif Believe In Love picture by IAmDivinity

I swear to you that I remember and I promise you that this is True...

It is something I repeated to myself incessantly and continuously from the ages of 3 until maybe 5...after that I learned to keep it to myself as I was unjustly and symbolically crucified for saying it around people who just didn't understand....

Understand that I was still Fresh from and still Connected to Source...I said...

"I Am Love. I Am Love. I Am Love. I Am Love. I Am Love. I Am Love. I Am Love. I Am Love."

This was CERTAINLY not a phrase that was said around me in my environment. I didn't pick it up from there. I said it to myself often, not realizing why...really...until I was MUCH older. Back then, it took me to my 'happy place'...it reminded me of Who I Am, as I was saying it to myself whenever I was being emotionally abused and tormented. Noooo... not teasing, this was Not teasing. This was hours and hours of "let's make Ariela crack and make her cry by saying the nastiest of evil things to her, then we're satisfied to watch her tears fall."

I Am the Light, you see, most times magnifying a person's darkness (which they Do NOT like!!!)...finding myself and learning about myself and empowering myself to shine brighter and brighter amidst a very dark family life.

I knew I was a Light Being from the start.
I Am Love.
You Are Love.
We Are Love.
This is our natural state and our first one and our last one.

HEAVEN #2809 The Portals of Immortality, August 3, 2008

God said:

Is not the imprint of your foot in sand beautiful?
Is not each grain of sand itself a miracle of its own?

What about the palm print of a child in color on his painting?

Is not an arm a lovely thing?

Is there not a face in the world that does not hold preciousness?
And when you love the soul of the person whose face you see, is not that face then the most beautiful face that exists in the world?

And when you rise to love, just to love and nothing else, just to be love untrammeled,
then what face in the Universe will not look as beautiful
as the face of the one you most love now?


There will come a time when you do love universally.
And what this comes down to is that you will simply see a reflection of yourself wherever you go. By then you will love yourself, and so then, what will you be capable of seeing but yourself? By then, your notable self will be I, and you will by then love Me more. You will love Me more the way I love you. You are approaching that, beloveds.
You are coming closer to Universality all the time.


You will still be you, you understand, with all your individuality and all your peculiarities, and yet you will see and move in the world freely, untied to your individuality and peculiarities and intrepidness. They will be there, yet they will be more like fiction, which it so happens they are.


You will not be stuck to the house of your body that you are presently stuck to.
Your name will not be your identity any longer. Oh, yes, you will answer to it, and yet you will know that your name is a name card pinned on you and is not you.
You will know that you have a much higher calling.


Oh, yes, still you will wash dishes and drive a car, and you will perform those functions whether they are your favorites or not. You may not even enjoy doing them, but by then you simply love, you simply enjoy. Your love and joy will not be dependent upon what you're doing. Your love and joy will not be dependent upon anything outside you.


Well, We can go so far as to say that there is nothing outside you. All is within. This has ever been so, even though this seems like a breakthrough, therefore, as new to you.


As you evolve, there will be nothing new to you, for everything will be familiar to you. No one will be a stranger to you. No one will stand before you who is not your Self.


You will be like Me and see your Self (God) in everyone.
There is no happiness you presently have to equal this.
Do not feel you leave anything behind you when you rise to My Being.
You will know you are everyone and everything, and nothing will be left behind but misconception. You will leave behind all the sense of temporal.
Of course you will, for you will have entered the Portals of Immortality.
Along with Eternity, you will have absconded to the fields of Infinity.
Beloveds, you will remember all that you have forgotten.
You will forget all that is insignificant.


For instance, you will no longer know woe and grief.
They will no longer be your companions. Now they will be strangers.


Your compassion will extend far beyond the borders of the past.
Your compassion will be dependent upon your universal love and joy
and have nothing to do with such a little thing as pity.


You will see from a mountain peak that you have not yet seen from,
and how clear-sighted your sight will be!
You will stand beside Me, and you will know with instant recognition that
We are One.

MY relationship to it is just fine.
When I become aware of something, I Act.

It's OTHER people I wonder about :-D
See...they sometimes...okay...most times...don't want to know anything, don't want to be En-lightened...because that would mean they have to DO something.

Far too many people who would rather play dumb and ignorant than Move and Do Something about it.

It's called Personal Responsibility.
You know a lot of people would rather have Someone Else take care of everything.

Well, at least they used to behave that way in the Old World.
Make way...New World A'Comin' :-D

Posted on Aug 7th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
Yes, another Harmonic is upon us. Tomorrow being 08-08-08.
I will be leaving for a weekend vacation in the afternoon and wanted to post this to give All a heads up about this powerful day, filled with a very powerful energy and opening for connection. Though you need not do anything special, All will be influenced...it's always nice to be Conscious, isn't it? :-D

Here's some numerology about the Number 8 first off...

Traits: Strong, Self-Reliant, Aggressive, Intelligent, Clever, Tasteful
Negative Traits: Materialistic, Dogmatic, Unscrupulous, Lethargic

8 is the number of wealth, success, leadership and effective organization. The 8 is a worldly number. Everything about it is in plain view. While the 8 does represent success, it may also denote failure. With 8s there is no in between: it succeeds beyond expectations or fails miserably. 8 also represents endurance and the ability to stay the course until the job is done.

This is from Crystalinks:

Eight (8)

Spiritually eight is the goal of the initiate, having gone through the seven stages. Eight is Infinity - Paradise regained.
 

Eight is solidarity as the first cube and it denotes perfection by virtue of it's six surfaces. There are eight winds and intermediate directions of space. Eight represents the pairs of opposites. The octagon is the beginning of the transformation of the square into a circle and vice versa.


Cultural References

Eight in many cultures and ideologies seems to have similar meanings: Felicity
Perfect rhythm
Regeneration
Resurrection


In some myths the eighth day created the new "man" of grace. After seven days of fasting and penance the eighth day becomes plenty and renewal. 7+1 is the number of the octave which is a continual theme in all esoteric belief systems. The knowledge of frequency and sound are a vital key in the ancient "mystery schools".


Buddhist tradition: eight is completion, all possibilities. There are eight symbols of good augury.


Chinese system of belief eight represents the whole. It is all possibilities in manifestation. Eight is seen as a good luck number. The PAKUA is the design depicting the eight trigrams and pairs of opposites, usually in a circle, the circumference of which symbolizes time and space. There are eight delights of human existence.


Christian: Eight is regeneration and rebirth. The font is usually octagonal as symbolizing the place of regeneration. There are eight beatitudes.


Egyptian: Eight is the number of Thoth.


Hebrew: Eight is perfect intelligence; splendor. The digit value of "IHVH" is the "Number of the Lord". The Temple was sanctified in eight days.


Hermetic: In their system there is one chief God, (eight minor gods) Thoth/Hermes was the inventor of numbers and geometry.


Hindu: 8x8 symbolism is the order of the celestial world established on earth. Temples are built on the pattern of the MANDALA, which is the 8x8 symbol. In their belief system there are eight regions of the world, suns, divisions of the day, and eight chakras.


Islamic: The throne which encompasses the world is supported by eight angels, corresponding to both the eight divisions of space and the groups of letters in the Arabic alphabet.


Japanese: Eight is the "many". There are eight Gods in the heavens.


Platonic: Plato has eight spheres of different colors surrounding the luminous pillars of the heavens.


Pythagorean: Eight is solidarity and stability.


Sumero-Semitic: Eight is the magic number of Nebo.


Taoist: Eight to be All possibilities in manifestation with the Pa Kua representing the forces in the phenomenal world. There are eight Taoist genii or immortals.

888 - Gateway into a New Consciousness


What an exquisite day to experience here on Earth at this time in our conscious evolutionary cycle.

Today, 8 August 2008, marks a gateway of initiation, an energetic opening of heightened energy here on Earth.
How you proceed forward is of your own choosing, as we are all granted free will.
Before we take a look at the 888 Gateway, lets firstly review the number 8.

The Number 8


The number 8 represents the infinity symbol, our conscious connection will the All of Creation. Our connection in infinite directions of time and space and on all infinite levels of our being.

The number 8 represents the merging together of Heaven and Earth - an acknowledgement that there is no duality, as the key to the ALL exists within. We are the ALL. The number 8 connects us with the Hermetic Axiom - ‘As Above, So Below, So Below, As Above'.

The number 8 is the number of abundance. It represents our potential, as a Soul having a physical experience here on Earth to harmonise all aspects of our Being to experience: financial abundance, good health, meaningful relationships and lead passionate fulfilling lives.


The Numerology of 8 August 2008


Today's date maybe written as 08/08/08 (which adds to the number 24, which reduces to 6), or the date maybe represented as 08/08/2008 (which adds to the number 26, which reduces to 8).

In numerology, what today reminds us is that when we move into our Heart (the number 6), and feel with every level of our being the Love of Source from within, we are the bridge that brings together Heaven here on Earth.

Within our Heart we remember they were never really separate, the separateness is but an illusion of the 3D physical world. As we move into our Heart space, the Zero Point centre that unites through the Divine Heart of all Creation, we become conscious of our connection with the infinite all.


The 888 Gateway


The 888 Gateway, is an energetic construct, built within our DNA to facilitate an awakening of grand proportions here on Earth. But with all energetic portals/potentials the choice is always ours as to how we use the energy in our moment of Being.

If we take the time to consciously go within our Heart, and BE the bridge that links the ‘As Above, So Below' we will have awakened and opened more consciously to Be-ing a co-creator of our realities.

When we are asleep, we allow the shadows to control our lives, we fall victim to our circumstances and we are dis-empowered to be active participants in our reality.

The 888 is a wake up call to propel you into your ‘POWER". Your POWER that takes ownership of your existence, and recognises self-responsibility as the means for humanity to move forward. Thus POWER is synonymous with being able to respond.

The 888 energy thus provides you with the tools to respond, it is then your choice as to whether you use the tools. The choice is always yours.

Interestingly the word POWER in numerology is the number 5 - the halfway point between 1 and 9. Thus when we sit in our POWER we are sitting on the precipice of change (the number 5) - we are empowered to make the choices and co-create. We choose the direction, and we choose to be EMPOWERED.

The 888 gateway is one of many in the years toward 2012. Next year we have the 9/9/9, the following year the 10/10/10 (ie 1/1/1) and then the 11/11/11, culminating just before the Summer/Winter Solstice in 2012 the 12/12/12 which reduces to 3/3/3 - the triple of heart of the three aspects of being.


How to connect with the 888 Gateway


Today, simply take the time out for you. Whether it is 8 seconds, 8 minutes or 8 hours - take the time to feel the 888 energy within your very BEING.

If you miss today, don't use that as an excuse ! All is perfect in every moment. When your soul awakens to the 888 potential, with intent simply connect with the 888 gateway - it will be there for you when the time is right.

To connect with the 888, take a quiet moment, away from material distractions and focus on your breath.

Take a deep breath in, and breathe out. Take a deep breath in, and breathe out. Then on the third inhalation breathe the breath into your Heart and on the out breath release any tension or fear that you maybe holding onto.

Then once again, breathe the breathe into your Heart, and breathe the breath out again. Continue this breathing process until your breath falls into a rhythmic motion. Feel the breath waves moving in and out - forming a figure 8 loop on every inhalation and exhalation set.

As you focus on your breath, on the rhythmic flow of the figure 8, allow your consciousness to become aware of your Heart centre expanding further on each inhalation and exhalation set.

Become conscious of your Hearts energetic field, its toric field, expanding and becoming so large that it begins to fill the room. Allow it to expand further to surround your home, expand further again to surround your neighbourhood, then to surround your suburb, then to surround your city, then to surround your country.

Continue expanding the energetic field of your Heart Torus until it surrounds the entire planet, and hence merges with the Toric energy field of the Earth.

As you now breathe in and out, your breath is the Earths breath, you are now breathing together as one. As you breath as one, your Heart and the Earths Heart Beat (the Schumann Resonance) are beating together as one. Your 8 Heart/breath energy and the Earths 8 Heart/breath energy are now forming a double Heart - the master number 88.

In this unified state of Breath & Heartbeat with the Earth, now expand your Hearts Toric field out further again, until it surrounds and hence merges with the entire Toric field of the Sun.

As you now breathe in and out, your breath is the Earths breath, is the Suns Breath. Your Heartbeat, is the Earths Heartbeat is the Suns Heartbeat. Your 8 Heart/breath, is the Earths 8 Heart/breath and is the Suns 8 Heart/breath. You have now formed a triple Heart/breath - a triple Master Number 888.

As your Heart, Earth & Sun breathe and beat together in Unity, you are connected through all Suns, in all directions of time and space to the infinite ALL. You are the ALL. You have always been the ALL. You are the One Breath, the One Heart, the One Beat. You are the One expression of all Creation.

In this conscious state of awareness of the Oneness with the All, open up to your full POWER as a soul having a physical experience here on Earth.

In this enlightened state, you acknowledge that you are the Creator, and all the elements of Creation are yours. In this state of Oneness of being, set forth your intent of what you wish to create for yourself and hence all of humanity in this experience during your journey here on Earth.

Use your POWER to bring your grand visions of Love, Peace, Joy & Unity into physical reality, for the highest good of all. Use your POWER to co-create and become the Heaven here on Earth. Heaven has always been here, we have just forgotten to be it.

You have the POWER to let the infinite magnificence of who you are flow unobstructed. Let it flow in waves, and surround you in an infinite Ocean of beauty, which is a reflection of the infinite beauty of you.

My 08-08-08 weekend vacation =)

Posted on Aug 13th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
Some pics from my little weekend vacation getaway 08-08-08 to 08-10-08.

Arriving in New Joysey 08-08-08, tired from the long day and long drive, got some dinner and settled into our hotel room to enjoy the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics. I absolutely wanted to watch and connect Globally with the World on this day! I lit a candle and had my little Jade Buddha I brought from home, LOL.

The performance by the 2008 Tai Chi practitioners was not to be missed! Wow! I looooved it! Soooo beautiful when people do things together, no? :-D Just a stunning sea of humanity!

Practioners of Tai Chi perform at Olympic central area. Photo: AFP

My hotel room was equipped with one of those "Sleep Number" beds. Supposedly you could set it to 'pillow soft' or 'firm' or whatever your preference. Umm...Bullcrap. The bed went from Hard to Rock Hard. I tried it on every number. Sucked. My back hurts. :-D

After tearing through the room, my YinYang younguns fell asleep on their rock hard beds.
Bah. Kids. What do they know...they sleep on floors. :-D LOL
My YinYangYounguns


Okay then. Following day was chock full of activity. Headed to Great Adventures Amusement park and Safari ("biggest safari outside of Africa" they say). Check out this Roller Coaster. I stood there for about 15 minutes watching people zoom up, zoom down and screaming. I am terrified of roller coasters and have just been on ONE and never again! It was a wussy one too! LOL. This one is Nuts!!!

There are a few more, but my commentary is funnier :-D
After a while, I get too busy BEING in the whole experience and forget to take pictures. That's exactly what happened on the rest of the trip. Whoops :-D

There was a GREAT East/West Indian performance at the amusement park which I thoroughly enjoyed and got my wine and grind on. (I know, no pics, didn't I explain that already? LOL). The only other pics were taken after the kids fell asleep and umm...you can't see THOSE, hehehehhehe :-D

All in all, it was a good practice vacation with the kids. Perhaps next time we could go for a week-long or more somewhere Tropical, on a beach or cabin on a lake. I really didn't get to just kick back and unwind...I seem only able to do that near Water.

Aaaaah, well...next time. This one was for the younguns.

Smile for my wonderful Gaiaadzster friends, my Loves...
Loves of my Life


Oh well. :-D

~I love that just one block away is a busy avenue, but my little street (and it IS little, only 2 blocks long) takes me to another world...there are very old, mature and Huge oak trees lining the entire span...so big and lush that they meet high overhead and blend into a green canopy (well, in the summertime. In the fall its a blazing tunnel of orange and red and yellow)...very much like entering the bat cave :-D

~I love that the tree in the back of the house...outside my bedroom and eye-level with my patio...Is just as weird and changeable as I am...

I swear to you that last year it grew apples on it...2 of them, LOL, the kids loved smelling the apple scent of the blossoms and leaves...I was told that it was a barren tree, but I did Reiki on it. Was thrilled to see the 2 apples, but my neighbors were not. They're so weird...they chopped down the branch that held the 2 apples. (reminded me of the movie 'The Village') So weird.

Wait...the weirdness continues...early THIS summer, I saw lots of little fruit growing. As time went on, they started to look like peaches. Okay, so now it's a peach tree. But wait, there's more...at the end of the fruit season, they turned into Apricots...cute little yummy apricots :-D Seeeeeee....

And a few months ago, there was the incident of my Garlic Powder which turned into a bottle of Onion Powder...which as I've said before, is impossible, because I do NOT buy onion powder...I wouldn't know what to do with it other than season meat, and I don't eat meat, so why buy it? Weird, LOL....But wait! One more prest-o change-o story...

The cat I had before this one was given to me by my girlfriend...who I'd told I wanted a girl kitten...and she found one roaming around her apt. complex...she gave her to me, and she was suchhhhhhh a sweet little girl...until....months later, SHE turned into a HE. LMAO.

(I've had over 50 cats in my childhood/teenage years, so trust me, I know the anatomy and difference of girl and boy cats.)

The Golden Rule- Humanity Healing

Posted on Aug 20th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1

The Golden Rule


The Golden Rule is the Ethic of Reciprocity.

"Every religion emphasizes Human Improvement, Love, Respect for others, Sharing other people's suffering. On these lines, every religion had more or less the same viewpoint and the same goal." ~His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Religious groups, as well as non-theistic ethical systems, differ greatly in their beliefs and practices.

There is, however, a common thread that runs through them all. Each of these systems of belief have some example of the Ethic of Reciprocity in their teachings.

The most common version of this is known as: The Golden Rule...
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

"The Principle of Reciprocity is often the justification, motivation, and in some cases, the Essence of a moral code" ~Oliver Thomson

"Ethics is nothing else than reverence for Life." ~Albert Schweitzer

A key element of the Golden Rule is that a person attempting to live by this rule treats all people with consideration and compassion.

The Golden Rule is the Unity and Interconnectedness of all persons.

Even within our differences...We Are All ONE.

"Compassion, in which all ethics must take root, can only attain its full breadth and depth if it embraces all living creatures and does not limit itself to mankind." ~Albert Schweitzer

The Golden Rule has roots in a wide range of world cultures, but it has its highest expression in the Universal Law of ONE:
~We are all One. When one is harmed, all are harmed.
When one is helped, all are healed.

Here are some examples of other versions of the Golden Rule from various religions and secular teachings:

Ancient Egyptian-
"Do for one who may do for you, that you may cause him thus to do."
~'The Tale of the Eloquent Peasant' translated by R.B. Parkinson

Ancient Roman-
"The law imprinted on the hearts of all wo/men is to Love the members of society as themselves."

Baha'i' Faith-
"Ascribe not to any soul that which thou wouldst not have ascribed to thee and say not that which thou doest not."
~Baha'u'llah

When was the last time you behaved out of character?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 21, 2008:

Yesterday.
smileys
Been finding these little bugs all over my kitchen counter for the past few days...actually, since I've come back from vacation. They look like fleas, but aren't fast like fleas, and my cat is an inside housecat. Thought they might be grain weevils or something. Anyhow, it's gross. Trying to find the source. Have some stuff on the counter...cereal and cat food and bottled condiments. Checked each thoroughly. Cat food was last. Poured a little into a bowl and...ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Thingees in their various stages of development were in there...and something flew out at me too. I won't even describe it...just EWWW.

This was a brand new box, bought from the corner store before vacation. It GROSSES me out to no end that my beloved cat was eating this stuff while we were away.

This was the last straw. That store is disgusting. I've told them to take the stuff off the shelves that were expired (found stuff on the shelves that were from 2003!!!)...checked back the next day and it was still there. I reported them...it's just sickening...and CAN be to some unwary consumer.

I took the box to the store and poured it all over the counter. It was a really vomit-inducing sight....And I let the owner really have it. No more nice and pleasant Ariela...oh no...you've got a full-fledged Indigo Child's RAGE and OUTRAGE. You can't offer this shit to consumers, you've got a responsiblity here....

...Well, maybe then this story ISN'T stepping out of character :-D

That store is hereby and promptly BOYCOTTED...they were Convenient but Deadly.
As most things of convenience are.

And...just out of curiousity....that ancient stuff is STILL there. Apparently they've paid off the Health department or something. Disgusting.

Public Service Announcement: ALWAYS check the expiration dates on EVERYTHING.

On Good And Evil~My thoughts are His...

Posted on Aug 21st, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1

Been some discussion on Good and Evil...and WOW...I just found this, I've discovered that he states my viewpoints exactly (only more poetic, lol)...so here is my Stance on this topic
...in the words of Kahlil Gibran...

On Good and Evil
 Kahlil Gibran


Of the good in you I can speak, but not of the evil.
For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst?
Verily when good is hungry it seeks food even in dark caves, and when it thirsts it drinks even of dead waters.

You are good when you are one with yourself.
Yet when you are not one with yourself you are not evil.
For a divided house is not a den of thieves; it is only a divided house.
And a ship without rudder may wander aimlessly among perilous isles yet sink not to the bottom.

You are good when you strive to give of yourself.
Yet you are not evil when you seek gain for yourself.
For when you strive for gain you are but a root that clings to the earth and sucks at her breast.
Surely the fruit cannot say to the root, "Be like me, ripe and full and ever giving of your abundance."
For to the fruit giving is a need, as receiving is a need to the root.

You are good when you are fully awake in your speech,
Yet you are not evil when you sleep while your tongue staggers without purpose.
And even stumbling speech may strengthen a weak tongue.

You are good when you walk to your goal firmly and with bold steps.
Yet you are not evil when you go thither limping.
Even those who limp go not backward. But you who are strong and swift, see that you do not limp before the lame, deeming it kindness.

You are good in countless ways, and you are not evil when you are not good,
You are only loitering and sluggard.
Pity that the stags cannot teach swiftness to the turtles.

In your longing for your giant self lies your goodness:
and that longing is in all of you.
But in some of you that longing is a torrent rushing with might to the sea, carrying the secrets of the hillsides and the songs of the forest.
And in others it is a flat stream that loses itself in angles and bends and lingers before it reaches the shore.

But let not him who longs much say to him who longs little, "Wherefore are you slow and halting?"
For the truly good ask not the naked, "Where is your garment?" nor the houseless, "What has befallen your house?"

What is your favorite distraction?

Posted on Aug 22nd, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 22, 2008:



Co-Creating Alternate Realities. Creating Real and Virtual Worlds :-D

That's a photo of Jasmine (left) and I (right) co-creating Golden Rainbow Villages virtual hangout in Google's Lively. We were having a 'virtual photo shoot' and were having this Really Intelligent conversation that went like:

Jasmine: What
Me: What

Beeeecause...you hear your avatar say a breathy, "Whaaaaaaaa....?" that is SOOOOOOO freakin hilarious. We love it, so that's what we kept saying to each other and laughing. So, we were like, "We've got to say something more intelligent for the shoot" and sooooo I was caught being my usual smart ass self saying, "How's this...Come to the dark side...we have cookies." LMAO. Soooo fun

Oh yeah, apparently we have the same taste in avatars :-D I had to put my hair in a different hairstyle so we could differentiate...even still, we got confused often as to who was who. LOL

dojo

That's me in my virtual dojo on another site, Kaneva.
It's alot different now (it's all a soothing green now), I've redecorated a thousand times, I love playing with textures and resurfacing everything with my own patterns and pictures.
(awww, c'mon, you know I humbly bow to the great Jedi Master Yoda :-D)

dancing2

Dunno. Me dancing on a Shipwreck someone built. SHE started dancing with ME. :-D
Definitely my favorite virtual site so far, usability is wonderfully easy. Okay those were OLD pics, I made a slideshow of my house, the way it looks NOW. A little more soothing and less psychedelic, LOL.

The Indigo Revolution

Posted on Aug 23rd, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
Oh wow.

This is the BEST series of videos on the Indigo/Crystal/Rainbow Children I have ever seen. Many guest speakers like Neale Donald Walsh...Ram Dass...Doreen Virtue...Native American Indians...many others. (and sweeeet Elijah, who I've come to absolutely adore, his music touches my Soul!)

I would highly, highly, highly recommend Everyone to watch this. Especially parents of "autistic", "problem children", "ADD and ADHD", "Asperger's Syndrome", "outcasts".

Also educators / teachers...all those in contact with children (as there will be more and more of us...we're Indigo Children here to usher in an Indigo World.)

ALSO all health professionals who prescribe medication for these children. That is NOT the answer and solution. They/we need SUPPORT to BE who we ARE. Please ALLOW that.

I sooo agree with what is said about Indigo Children...better WE label them than mainstream society...as their labels are very disempowering and harmful. "Indigo Child" is a far better label, and there's no getting around (yet) labeling in this present day.

No, Indigos are not BETTER than anyone else, nor LESSER.
Just more connected to their Gift, which ALL children have and ARE. 
This Connectedness and Wisdom from Within is available to Everyone.

With that said...enjoy the videos...embrace and cherish All Children. Thank You.

What, in this moment, is bringing you joy?

THIS is bringing me joy in this moment...A Heaven Letter that got lost in my email.
What a pleasure it is to read and ingest =)
Dated August 18th, but I personally date it as Timeless and Eternal =) Enjoy In Joy =)


HEAVEN #2824 All the Blossoming That Spring Brings, August 18, 2008

God said:

You know how unexpectedly a tree blooms, a flower buds, and a new dandelion pops up. You may have been waiting for a tree to bloom and a flower to bud and expect new dandelions to pop up, yet each time it is sudden, and it is a surprise.


That is just how you are, beloveds. Pay attention and you will see that you are a surprise a minute. You are just one way, and then you are another. New aspects of you suddenly appear, suddenly bud, and there you are. You are a spring flower, and with you, there is only spring and all the blossoming that spring brings.


You are like the sun rising over the horizon every morning.


You are a recipe you thought of and are making for the first time.


You are a golden surprise.


If you have not surprised yourself lately, surprise yourself now. What have you been keeping in a cupboard or a closet? What aspect of yourself is still hidden there? What have you never worn, yet it is yours, stuck away? Get dressed in it and step out. What do you have up your sleeve, beloveds?


Let not one leaf of the flower that you are be kept out of the sunshine. Let not one blossom of you be unpicked.


If you want to dance, dance. If you want to sing, sing. Whatever you may have never done before or have not done in a long time, and you have even a tiny thread of desire, now is the time to bring it out into the sunshine.


In terms of the relative, you cannot be everything you can be, and yet you can be more than you have yet brought into the light of day.


Maybe you are a writer, a musician, a composer, a dancer, and a choreographer all rolled into one. Maybe you can be a responsible person and a free spirit as well. Maybe you can stay a free spirit and be a responsible person at the same time. There is nothing you cannot be. Okay, I accept, you cannot blossom into every flower under the sun, but yet you can be more than one. There are aspects of you that are ready to bloom.


A piano has many notes. You can't play them all at once. And yet there may be notes you have never played, and now you want to play them, and now's your time. Just sit down and play.


You are a Being who expresses. What have you long not expressed?


Perhaps you want to leave one role for another. Who says you can't? Perhaps you have been someone who stars behind the scenes, and now you want to be on stage? Or vice versa. No one says you must take on a new role, but maybe a new role within you is bursting to come out.


You can sing any song you want. No need to wait for permission. No need to wait for urging or coaxing. Just be ready to open the cage and let out the birds who are eager to fly. Have you been keeping them back? Have you perhaps been withholding yourself from yourself?


What do you want to do right now that you may have never done before or have not done in a long time? What keeps you from the joy? And why would you let it?


If you want to howl at the moon, go ahead and howl at the moon. Maybe you want to adopt a child. So, go ahead, why don't you do it? Or maybe you want to surprise someone in a lovely way. Stop what you're doing right now, and go ahead and do it.

What were you thinking about last night?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 26, 2008:

**cough cough**
I was thinking about sex...but then my partner's snoring jolted me back into reality.


Then I was thinking about the Wonders of the Internet and our Telepathic Communications. Mind to Mind contact. Uniting in One Mind. Just amazing.

Has my views changed this morning? Absolutely Not. I'm still Awed.

To think what I would've missed!
So my partner has made up for not staying awake...by paying for my internet charges.

Real Woman Creed =)

Posted on Aug 26th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1

I believe that within me lies an extraordinary radiance,
and I commit to letting my light loose in the world.

I believe that the source of my power and wisdom is in the center of my being,
and I commit to acting from this place of strength.

I believe that I possess an abundance of passion and creative potential
and I commit to the expression of these gifts.

I believe that the time has come to let go of old notions and unhealthy attitudes,
and I commit to re-examine what I have been told about beauty
and dismiss what insults my soul.

I believe that negative thoughts and words compromise my well-being,
and I commit to thinking and speaking positively about myself and others.

I believe that young women are in need of positive role models,
and I commit to being an example of authencity and self love.

I believe in the relationship between my well-being and the well-being of the planet,
and I commit to a life of mindfulness that regards all living things
as Holy and worthy of my love.

I believe it is my spiritual responsibility to care for my body with
respect, kindness, and compassion.

I commit to balancing my life in such a way that my physical being
is fully expressed and nurtured.

I believe that joy is an essential part of wellness,
and I commit to removing obstacles to joy
and creating a life that is full of exuberance.

I belive that a woman who loves herself is a powerful, passionate, attractive force, and I commit, from this day forward, to loving myself deeply and extravagantly."

Who was the last person you passed by without speaking to?

Posted on Aug 27th, 2008 by Resurrected1 : Ariela -Quantum Leaper Resurrected1
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 27, 2008:

My most immediate neighbors.

I don't intend to speak with them either...waaaaaay too much drama going on next door.

The other day, my partner asked me if I heard the commotion next door in the early a.m. (5 a.m to be exact and no, I was asleep). He said that the son took the mother's car and drove off after yelling at each other outside, with other neighbors coming out to see what was going on.

Then in the morning, my whole street was filled with fire trucks and police cars, with the mother complaining about something and pointing to her car. Dunno what exactly happened, they were there for a long time, even saw the fire chief come by and peer into the window of the car (all the hawwwt firemen looked in too). She (the fire chief) eventually did a chemical test on some substance on the car.

How's that for drama? Like I said, I knew from day One of moving here that they were trouble. I'm also sure that this son beats his girlfriend up...who am I to say anything? Cause it would've been moot. She comes right back to his house the next day. Leaves crying, but returns.

In certain cases, I've learned to mind my own business. Not that I don't care. I DO. Very much. But you can tell who the people are that are unwilling to help themselves or don't even want to leave the situation.

I've also learned from experience that if I meddle in these cases, I will be the one who gets attacked.

Soooo....no Thank You. You guys and gals gotta tough this one out and learn on your own.

Walk On By...
