STAND IN YOUR TRUTH   It is time for you to regain control of your life. You can do this by going within on a daily basis. Clear your mind of the worries of the day. Ask your guides to help you find ways to empower yourself. Work through the fears that allow you to give your freedom to others. Choose the life you wish to live for yourself. Rediscover what gives you joy and passion. Speak your mind. Know what it is you want. What is your truth? Speak it, with integrity. No matter what others around you do, remain true to your self and stand your ground when you see things around you that do not resonate with you. It is only through standing in your truth that you will be able to change the world. It will not happen overnight; it has taken eons for your systems to become so skewed. However, by remaining in peace no matter what situation you find yourself in, you will be better armed to make decisions from the heart. No longer live in fear of what the future holds. You will never attain what you want as long as you are focused in the past or future. Every dream you hold has the chance to blossom only in the present moment. Seek ways to maintain peace in every moment. Speak your truth in every moment. When your thoughts wander to the “poor me syndrome” of the past or the “what if syndrome” of the future, return to the present moment. The key to happiness lies in living in the present moment with gratitude for all the blessings you have. Each of you is able to live fully in joy at this time.

Sometimes My beloved children accept negativity from others. Negativity is not your due. Someone who is negative towards you may, sooner or later, entrap you and snap at you. As much as possible, stay away from people who hold great negativity, for they will bite. They may well give you advice you haven’t ask for, and they may be out to pull you down and even knock you out.
 
They may see their motive in setting you straight as honorable, yet there is no honor in negativity. You don’t want someone’s negativity pasted onto you. You may try to dodge it, yet when the negativity is hurled at you, you may well react with negativity equal to the force of the negativity thrown. You don’t want the negativity, dear ones. In these cases, stay away from it.  
 
Someone went out of his or her way to set you straight. They thought they knew better than you, and now you want to set them straight. It is on your mind to set them straight day and night. It is like you are caught up in a negative vortex. Beware of negativity, for negativity can get you. You may desire to reciprocate in kind. Beloveds, you do not want to be equivalent to someone else’s negativity. It is not to anyone’s advantage, certainly not to yours. A friend is someone who likes you. A friend isn’t someone who knows better than you and has to spurn your life.  
 
A friend is someone who thinks well of you. A friend is someone who wishes you well. Pretty much, a friend doesn’t hold himself high and mighty over you. Make friends who have nothing to prove to you.
 

When you set an intention and fearlessly surrender into the flow towards that intention, you are demonstrating your complete faith in yourself as a powerful co-creator, standing brilliantly in your authentic power. Such a sight is an absolute delight to behold! ~Archangel Gabriel

The most loving, giving and compassionate people you will experience in your Earth plane existence are the ones that have ‘been there, done that’. They have walked through fire, bear deep scars and know the pain of loss, abuse and betrayal intimately……yet they are still willing to extend their hand and offer assistance regardless of the circumstance. Why? They know the dark side and what it does, but they also know

that a flame is still flickering deep within and, once it has been fanned, can continue to grow.
For those of you experiencing despair; the help you have prayed for is coming! When it arrives, it will be tempting to turn it aside just as you have always done. Instead, know that I heard your cry and sent this seemingly unassuming soul to aid you in your movement back into the Light. You are not alone…..you are never alone! ~ Creator

Come forth with new ideas. Ideas do issue forth from you. Ultimately, the ideas that sprout from humankind come from Me. At the same time, the credit is yours. Ideas are your children, as you are the instrument of their birth.
 
Be ready for new ideas. Actually, no preparation is needed. Just let ideas new to you arise. Welcome them. Nourish them. Ideas that sprout may be gold. You do not know what ideas of yours will flash across the screen of life and be materialized. You do not know ahead of time where an idea may lead. It may lead nowhere. Just the same, you don’t know what more ideas one idea of yours may spark. Nor do you know what idea of yours may be born tomorrow and come to life before your eyes.
 
You do not know what ideas that issue from you may grow into. Stay open to ideas. A crazy idea may not be crazy. Sensible ideas are a dime a dozen. New ideas are waiting to alight on Earth. Welcome unheard-of new ideas. Find them out.
 
Every idea is waiting to be born. It needs a human being to birth it.
 
And one idea leads to another. Welcome new ideas. Be open to new ideas. Further them.
 
What is impossible today may become established tomorrow. That man could fly was once an absurdity. Today planes fly the airways, and no one thinks anything of it.

A note from Zen: An answer to a question from awakening siblings about how have I kept up with world and American events being outside the US so many years. This is part of a discussion on world topics that we’ve been debating including the engineering of our society and its reactions/non-reactions to the world around us as presented by the mainstream media and the ongoing social memes. This is midstream in our conversation. – Z

I read – a lot. And write and edit articles and research like a house a fire. Have for years. On line you can get anything from MSM to ultra alternative – I look for perception, trends, analyses, bu...

You can have an amazing and abundant life free from enslavement to the Matrix once you realize how the Matrix got there in the first place as well as how your thoughts and feelings create your reality in every moment. You are the Master of your own Manifestation and your choices have the power to free or enslave you – as you choose. At first glance – life seems unfair and you may think that you are stuck in a system that is out to consume you. One one level – this is true – but this is not the only reality that you can experience.

The world is a maze of lies. Finding the truth is a major work and not so easy to discern. The whole system has been created to enslave you to an agenda based upon false ideals. Understand that the whole syste...
