There has been much talk in your Realm of the need for war to maintain peace. Many of you have come to believe this is true. We disagree and ask that you open your eyes and hearts to allowing others to walk the Paths of their choice.

These wars not only exist on global levels, but within families, close relationships, co-workers, those you meet casually and within your own self. There are increasing instances such as road rage where fights, sometimes leading to death, ensue between strangers over trivial issues.

How can you help end this madness? Maintain inner peace at all times. No matter what another says or does, allow it to be, without getting caught up in the swirl of negative emotions that will surely take you out of balance.

Blessed are where your feet are now for, at any moment, you can choose whatever direction your soul yearns for. Wherever they fall is hallowed ground. ~ Creator

Dear Ones, you cannot analyze your way into having fun. Think of children leaving a school for recess. They whole-heartedly embrace the Now moment, effortlessly moving from activity to activity, spending time in whatever they feel is most enjoyable.
Fun is a surrendered flow. It cannot be forced or constrained, as true fun takes on a life of its own. Allow yourself to set your inner GPS to fun and see where it takes you! With the carefree abandon of a child, know that if you try something and don’t like it you can simply try something else. Be present, be open, and be joyful, for you that is how you fully embrace life and all it has to offer. ~Archangel Gabriel

God said:

Life is like a pot of gold that you put your hands in and pluck from. For the sake of argument, let’s say that you are blindfolded. Unable to see what your hands pick up, We might say that you are flying blind.

Gold is gold. By touch alone, however, gold doesn’t sparkle. If you pick up a piece of wood, easily your fingers would recognize splinters. Of course, you don't put much stock in splinters.

I make the point that your life is gold. Blind, even with gold right in front of you, you do not recognize the gold as it is right before you. You may not value your life or life itself for the gold it truly is. You may even complain about life on Earth. You may think it is a waste of time. You may even think it is unendurable. You simply don't see the Truth of Life because you have limited vision.

Beloveds, you are not here on Earth by chance or mistake. By great lengths, you came to this birth on Earth. Unique, you came to Earth. From the world’s point of view, there is no one just like you, although you yourself may have some passing acquaintance with Oneness housed deep in your heart.

In any case, you are here for a reason or for more than one reason. All the connections are vast. Ultimately, what you see as many -- well, their arms are entwined, and the connections are masterful and sometimes beyond belief. Oh, the unseen connections.

Waking Times

For many waking up in the modern world, the weight of the planet is on their shoulders. It seems like the more one learns, the more everything is in ruin. Climate catastrophe and secret financial institutions threaten devastation on all sides, the media is run by the corporate elite and filters the truth into coarse bits of marketing slogans, and there seems like no avenue to fight back, to levy solutions.

When even the charities seem corrupt, where does the charitable soul go?

When I moved to Montreal, I was desperate to get connected to a group that was actually making a difference. I joined an organization I’m proud to work with known as the Valhalla Movement.
