Walk the Path Overgrown
Ascended Traveler
Just for today, let go of the concrete, the must do’s and the must haves.
Release expectations of self and others, make no judgements and keep anger at bay,
Be not complacent, idol, nor disinterested, restless, annoyed or argumentative,
Let go of the need to know, to control and to own; the imprints of greed.
Then take a walk and here the calling of what desires to be again.

I inspire you, to be fully present to the voice within, to quiet the chatter, to seek stillness in nature and to cultivate your relationship with commitment.
It is Here. It is Now.
Oneness is revealed -a dual shift in perspective—exterior to interior, materialistic to simplistic, reactive to reflective, disconnected to interconnected, exclusive to inclusive, fundamentalist to symbolic, dogma to praxis and Earth as resources to Earth as the manifestation of the Divine.
Awaken to the beauty and the connectivity to All
Our Ascension.
Ann Oswald Laird
As the isolation calls us to be, a knowingness pervades the consciousness of a time when we were called to prepare over may lifetimes to embrace stillness. Not just stillness of the Self but stillness of a collective consciousness.
It is the breaking down of all societal structures to move more into a unified consciousness.
One planet. One People
Clearing the path so that All can be a unification of One Soul, Oneness, a prophetic monumental Age of Awakening.
The Earth is healing and with her authority we are healing.

“The ultimate question for a responsible man to ask is not how he is to extricate himself heroically from the affair, but how the coming generation shall continue to live,” Bonhoeffer
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German Lutheran pastor and theologian, was executed in 1945 in a Nazi concentration camp, owing to his compassion and solidarity for the Jewish people and prisoners of war. Bonhoeffer might suggest, to come to know God is through the experiences of life that lead us out of self gratification and toward gratification of humanity as a whole. One could then say, that for some, the spiritual journey has proven to transform not only the individual but also more profoundly their community and future generations. If one were to look for an example of an individual life that exemplifies a profound spiritual journey one might acknowledge Bonhoeffer.
Like Bonhoeffer, I say devote yourself to your spiritual path despite your reservations, your fears and conflicts with others and do so with the knowingness that Earth and her inhabitants will be an enlightened place for it.

I inspire you, the freedom of self is in the freedom of the collective, not the selective.
History paints a picture that is evident to see. The demise of the planet is in direct relations with oppressive power, human tyranny.
Remember however the consciousness of Earth sustains as does the consciousness of humanity. History proves this time and time again. The cycle continues, man is beast, Earth is abundant and again consciousness calls us to Oneness.

Petroglyphs seen in Upper Calf Creek in Escalante National Park, Utah
I inspire you, embrace the polarity of what it means to be human; expressions of Self, Others, God, Source, Consciousness………
It is not singular nor is it plural. This is the collective experience in unison with the vast potentiality of All to ascend to the Highest and Best.
Embrace relationships, call forth wisdom of expression, manifest shifts in perspective-wellness, abundance, and self worth. You are the beauty of all existence for you are existence; the fire, the earth, the water, the air-
Dance in the web of Light and Dark.

Overlooking in Escalante, Utah
I inspire you, belonging to the human race takes great responsibility with it-liberation of one’s resources- polarity: set free to hear, to smell, to touch, to create…..
In being you awaken the journey beyond the norm-the common, the complacencies – You come for the experience only to remember the truth of who you are; the resourced, the powerful, the miraculous…….
In the end of a life cycle the truth be told; the liberation is in the knowingness that you are the beauty of all existence for you are existence; the fire, the earth, the water, the air- the Divine Convergence.

I inspire you, the scheme of gossip ignites manipulation by the one who fears: fears the reflection of their own actions, consequences, loss, being found out and more so seen as the truth of who they are.
Be not influenced by the the lier, the manipulator, the gossiper who broadcasts the actions of another and does so with such decisiveness, persistence and malice.
The only truth is that you choose to believe it to be so.
Let go of their perceptions; for the one who fears manifests hate and reflects darkness into the world.
Unjust perceptions=Unjust consequences –
Honor yourself by stepping out of the myth and into integrity.
Seek the Source- Ask questions, be courageous- See beyond the chaos- honor the relationship of what it means to be in relationship. Ask yourself, do I stand with those who condemn and judge or do I stand in solidarity?
For in solidarity we can make a difference and reflect Light into the world.
“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie, deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive and unrealistic.” John F. Kennedy

I inspire you, be grateful to those who have and will do you wrong. As they cut to the core, invite them in. Be neutral, get curious and reflect; why have I manifested you my way?
Take ownership and in doing so you free yourself from the twisted perceptions the bearer brings.
Surrender to the perfection of the patterns of the moment: ancestral, confusion, control, denial, manipulation, fear….
Ask: What is it about you that is calling me to me? What is it about you that is calling me to be more?
I inspire you, see the miracle in all events of your life.
