Now retired, I rarely engage in much beyond the joys of simply living my truly blessed life! However, every now and then, I am invited to be part of something that is so compelling to me I feel The Call to simply engage and see where it goes.
Recently, I was invited to be in conversation with Dean Walker on the Poetry of Predicament podcast. In the wonderful company of Deb Ozarko; and with the great freedom to be able to just wander and wonder about our current structure of ‘reality’, it was a joy to participate in an expansive line of enquiry – for its own sake. Imagine! No box of problem/solution. No expectation of embracing the journey in order to reach a predetermined destination! Just a small collective of Souls both willing and able to dive in and see where it goes.
If logic, analysis and structure are imperatives in your life, don’t waste your time on this one. However, if you’re up for moving beyond the need for answers and into the domain of expanded lines of enquiry, you just might enjoy listening to this one as much as we did creating it.
==============================
This experience reminded me of the notion of ‘radical evolution’ – a concept that I worked with as far back as 2013. The notion persists and may well be more relevant and imperative now than is was way back then. Consider the following:
“Choose wisely who you spend your time with! Your conversations shape your reality. What you allow yourself to talk about, becomes the truth by which you live. Small conversations make for small lives. Look around you and find someone with whom to engage who will make room for the bigger, uncertain, chaotic, life-altering conversations that will make room for YOU to emerge into your own potential! Stop putting it off – you have little to lose and much to gain!” (Read the entire post here)
We can choose or we can continue to wait until we feel the insistent, powerful hand of Gaia pressing into our lower back and pushing us into our destiny. Either way, we can no longer stay where we are.
The beings of light that these two women ARE contains so much divine wisdom, that, when shared, resonates so deeply in the essence of light that I AM. So many years spent in the context of trying to solve a problem kept me stagnated and small. I was desperately looking for the seemingly forgotten God-creation that I was told I am and yet could simply not find that. I now know–it’s because it has always been within, while I was looking without. Today, I am continuously amazed at how much more graceful my life is because I own the legitimacy of my internal cues. I feel like this happened almost overnight –I was living in fear and disconnect and everything that represents…and then, I knew that I knew what I knew and that I was no longer willing to deny mySelf my Truth, and life changed. I knew, for instance, as a child, that adults had no clue what they were doing, yet, I was doped to expect better of them, and with that expectation came massive disappointments. Today, I understand the grip of cultural conditioning and I chose the voice within. Today, I take radical ownership of self-evolution. I sense I am creator, and I create. I am infinite. I am part of the whole, and the whole itself. I have few words to describe this, and yet I feel the vibration of the Truth of it in the deepest depths of my Soul. So from this space, I let go of the world out there, as it is…increasingly more. I let go of blame and fault and the lies perpetuated by the long-dead American Dream that plagues our collective consciousness and is contributing to biosphere collapse. I even let go of biosphere collapse as a negative thing — I still mourn, I have a lot more to process, AND, I trust that there is genious in it all. Perhaps we must have that 4th level collapse in order for a new world to emerge? I do not know the genious of it, and I trust that it is genious. So, I let it all go, with love, and I chose to wake up every day full of love, full of joy, full of life. …I let go of the outcome, and I create, for the sake of creation, because that is what I am.
Thank you ladies, for all you’ve taught me…Louise, your programs are the most profound of all programs I’ve ever encountered, and Deb, your book was the most liberating book I’ve ever read. You are both game changers, and I am forever grateful.
Thank you, Stela, for making the time to share your thoughts and insights.
What I have learned over many, many years of engaging with others is: there is no greater joy for me than being in the presence of the desire for personal evolution, uncompromised. In your good company, I know my own evolution will be propelled!
Aloha!
