Silent Running

It’s been quite a while since I have actually written a post. Oh, a few re-posts here and there, if I like what others have written. My limited writing has been a monthly newsletter for the community I live in. Most of my time has been spent on building a life here in the Valley of the Sun, and just simply enjoying retirement. I’m loving every moment of it, as well as my community, and the last year and a half has flown by quickly. We’re getting settled in and certainly do not miss the cold and snow.

I also haven’t written because I have spent a quite a bit of time researching down the rabbit holes of our troubled world. I could have posted much about that, but I felt as though I should go silent running. I chose the title of this post from the 1985 song by Mike and the Mechanics, since it speaks to current times. Have a listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i17mgRK3GX8 and pay attention to the lyrics. I’m going to reference some of them and provide some thoughts, as I feel that now is the time to encourage everyone to pay attention. I much prefer helping people learn and look within, rather than tell them what to do, but I can no longer remain silent. It is time to pull your head out of the sand and Wake Up. We are in a battle for control of our lives.

Third Stanza: “Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still”

First Stanza: “Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don’t believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I’m with the high command”

Polarity seems to rule the day, encouraging conflict and dividing friends, families, partners and everyone in-between. What is said to be truth, is quite often a lie, leaving you to wonder what to do, say or think. “You do this [thing], to protect me”, forcing you to deny the power of owning your own life. Money and power own the world, leaving anyone lesser to bend to the will of those who have that. If you question that, you are made to feel crazy; if you push against that, then you are the criminal. Be the peaceful warrior and use knowledge as your superpower. Open your mind to any and all possibilities of information, even if it seems unbelievable or controversial. Draw the information into your Heart center and see how it feels. Your Heart will always be truthful, even if your mind says otherwise. To challenge you, I’m going to list topics that are “running” through and “calling” out in our current times – for you to take a tumble down the rabbit hole and discover what lies within.

Government, politics, the elections, Big Tech, Big Media, Big Pharma, medical systems, military industrial complex, 3-letter agencies, JFK, Russia, Ukraine, religious institutions, human traffiking, satanic rituals, pedophilia, ETs, Annunaki, Draco-Reptilians, Area 51, Antartica, The Great Awakening, Quantum Financial System, Space Force, the US Constitution, Organic Act of 1871, Central Banks, Freemasons, Atlantis, and Q. Here’s a good pictorial version to tie that altogether: https://www.dylanlouismonroe.com/q-web.html

This list will either: challenge you, scare you, disgust you, anger you, intrigue you, or maybe validate that you are also not crazy. I realize that simply listing all this, could get me kicked off the blog for poking at controversial subjects. What I can do is promise that if you choose to investigate some of these items, you will never think about them in the same way again. Regardless, it is time for us all to wake up and become aware of what is going on around us. There is no denying that life has changed and continues to change rapidly from what we knew a few years ago. This, dear readers, is what is called “The Great Awakening”. A massive shift in energy; from dark to light, from bad to good, away from satanic activities to sovereign souls connected to Divine Creator. And best of all: from apathy and hate into Divine Love.

Stanza Two: “There’s a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency
Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect from up here”

Now is the time to stand up and stand on your own two feet. I do not advocate violence. I do not want to be a part of it, unless it is for the protection of my life, property, and that of my loved ones. Even then, follow the path of least harm. Regain ownership of your mind, body, and soul. They belong to you and not anyone or anything else. Choose what goes into your body, what thoughts and beliefs you retain, and what is near and dear to your heart. Your soul comes from Divine Creator and is your moral compass. Look within yourself for the connection to Spirit, and don’t give that power to someone else. They usually just want money in exchange for their version of Spirit’s messages. All of which keeps you in a state of fear and anxiety.

Let me say this again: GO WITHIN. Love, love, love yourself as you would a newborn baby. Accept that you may see yourself as having faults and then love yourself even more. Look with awe upon your human body and realize what an amazing creation it is. The ability to heal itself over and over again; you’ll wonder why you need to rely upon medical treatments when it has capabilities you can’t imagine. Your mind is capable of critical thinking, multi-creation, and storage of information beyond the technical world. You are a living, breathing, powerful-beyond-measure wonder placed here by Divine Creator. When you go within, connect with Spirit, open yourself to guidance, and trust what Spirit offers you, then you have everything you need to deal with the shitstorm that has arisen on Earth. Trust Spirit, trust yourself, disconnect from fear-driven narrative, love yourself, do something fun every single day, and watch the shitstorm burn itself out. They’re called “haboobs” in the desert. Frightening at first, but don’t last long and neither will this one. Are you ready to create Paradise on Earth?

Calling All Lightworkers

It’s been a rough couple of years. You may have thought you were a Lightworker and on the path. And then this shitstorm showed up and you’re not really sure if you even are a Lightworker. You’ve been pulled down and pulled off your path. You may have lost jobs and friends and live in a house divided. You sneeze and someone acts like you have the plague. What you thought you believed in now sounds like a fairy tale. You wonder if Satan has taken over the Earth. That pure Divine connection to God seems like a thin trickle. And your Spirit Guides? Where did they go?

All is not lost. Don’t give up and, for sure, don’t give in.

Maybe you spent a lot of time clearing up your baggage. Maybe you feel like you’ve passed your Spiritual Initiations. (They never stop, by the way. No Master ever gets a free pass.) And now it’s all gone to shit.

But it hasn’t. . .

Remember when you learned to drive a car and the day came when you got to make a solo trip? Well, this is it, kids, the Solo Drive for Lightworkers. Your Spirit Guides didn’t leave you, they LAUNCHED you. You are now one badass Lightworker and you got this. Yes, seriously. All the work, all the praying and meditation, all the study and learning, is within you. You know how to connect, you know how to clear your energy, you know how to “read” people’s energy, so your Guides don’t have to be taking care of you every minute – not that they mind and they’re still there when you need them.

And now they are asking you to take the next step on your spiritual journey: stepping into Service. It’s time to shine your light even brighter to help other Souls get onto the spiritual path. Their path, not yours. Remind them that they are a Divine Child of God, a Sovereign Soul filled with Divine Love, and capable of creating a joyful, abundant life. Maybe it is in your path to help someone create a wonderous thing that benefits many and costs nothing. Maybe you bring beauty to the world, or nurture others with healthful food. Whatever it is, ask your Guides to put you on the path of Service.

But remember, that even when you drive solo, you are never alone.

Save Jesus – An Allegory of Belief

Yes, you read that correctly. I’m going to take a “leap of faith” into the subject of beliefs, namely the spiritual variety. Starting with the definition of Belief according to- thefreedictionary.com:

  1. The mental act, condition, or habit of placing trust or confidence in another: “My belief in you is as strong as ever.”
  2. Mental acceptance of and conviction in the truth, actuality, or validity of something: “His explanation of what happened defies belief.”
  3. Something believed or accepted as true, especially a particular tenet or a body of tenets accepted by a group of persons.

Belief systems and their origins can be a complicated and controversial subject and take one down vast roads and rabbit holes. They can be learned but are often something felt within. Beliefs are and should be an entirely personal choice. Throughout my years of research and study of spiritual subjects, I have decided that there are five types of spiritual belief systems:

  • Those who claim they don’t believe in God but admit that there is some energy source that created the universe and all of us. They are likely the people who will yelp “God save me!” when shit hits the fan.
  • The fear-based group who think that anyone who isn’t part of their group should be squashed like a bug.
  • The devout Christians who constantly state “Jesus is our King and Savior”, “Jesus saved me”, and try to convince you to join their church as they look down their nose at you.
  • The extreme spiritual types who drape crystals on every part of their body and think they can manifest soap out of thin air.
  • And then, the remainder who might be in the fringes of those groups and simply walk quietly in their faith. They talk to God frequently and believe there was a Jesus. They might have crystals on their windowsills and meditate on the Solstice. They still buy soap at the grocery store.

There is nothing wrong nor right to any of these groups. The snarky comments are mine alone. A belief in something or someone is based upon an individual’s energetic frequency level, and their heart-based feeling. But the basis of belief is in a Higher Being, Source Energy, a Creator of All, regardless of the name placed upon it. We came into being somehow, even if some are convinced that we originated from an ape. (So how did the ape get here, might I ask?)

To throw in the mix is another category, what I like to call the “Mean People”. They don’t believe in God, much less Jesus. They believe in Other Things. They hate humans. They worship power and money and like to take both from you. You can tell who they are by looking in their eyes – dead, flat, no soul shining within. Some have cobra eyes, that dead stare that sucks you in right before they bite you. Yes, creepy as fuck.

But getting back to Jesus. . .

I believe that God created each one of us, through a Divine Spark placed within a human body. Our purpose was to explore life in physical form in order to grow our spirit, which grows God, and to give and receive love. We were conveyed the Divine Right to joy, love, prosperity, abundance, and freedom. However, we agreed to forget our conscious connection to God to achieve this growth without the knowledge of perfection. But as we matured spiritually, we would remember and re-ignite the desire to know God within our soul.

Well, that went reasonably well for quite some time, but the Mean People multiplied too. They figured out how they could manipulate the humans through fear and then it got out of hand. Drunken orgies and that kind of thing. They came up with devious methods to take power and money away from the humans. The people became tired and unhappy. God got angry but determined that it wouldn’t be beneficial to wipe out Earth and start over. Waste of resources and all that. So, God created Jesus. A pure, Divine Spark in a human body, but with full remembrance of the God-connection. Someone who could talk to the humans and remind them just Who it was that put them here. A “come to Jesus” sort of meeting. (I couldn’t help using that reference.)

So, there He was, talking with anyone who would listen, reminding them that they were of God and could-and should- be living a joyful, loving, abundant life. I envision Jesus as an awesome big brother. The brother who would take you camping in the woods, roast you a perfect marshmallow, and scare you shitless with the worst ghost story imaginable. Then when you woke in the early hours, terrified, he’d be in his sleeping bag between you and the tent opening with a club by his side. Snoring peacefully. The brother who would toss you in a pond, then teach you how to swim. Or sit with you in the backyard, patiently explaining to you how a dandelion is not much different from a human: you can choose to see a weed, or you can choose to see a flower, but God made both, so both are perfection and can renew themselves endlessly.

I believe he was married and raised children (his time of death could have been mis-reported; it’s a common theme), because how could he counsel such things without direct knowledge? In short, I believe Jesus was a teacher, who was sent here to help us remember that God lives within each of us and that we are capable of creating a life of our dreams. A life of freedom to explore and learn. A life of joy, with meaningful activities that create beautiful things and provide what we need. (He was a carpenter.) To teach us that abundance is having everything that we need and enjoy (and not just to impress the neighbors). All that crap about poverty being a virtue was made up by the Mean People so they could take more of your things.

But all the while he was busy building cabinets and telling us to talk to God every day, the Mean People were grilling their minions about this new guy in town. They threatened them by withholding food, by taking their money, by putting them in house arrest, and to some, death. Jesus was a direct threat to the existence of the Mean People, but he just got louder. They didn’t much like that. And you know how all that turned out. Do you get why I call them “Mean People”?

So, this narrative of “Jesus died for our sins”, well, I don’t think you really understand the whole story. He died because very few people stood up for him. The rest of the sorry-ass population were so scared of the Mean People – even though they outnumbered them a thousand to one – that they rolled over and gave him up. So, what if the Mean People had all the money, power and maybe weapons? Many a time in later history an army of peasants with pitchforks and brooms took out a group of soldiers to regain their freedom. One wonders why that didn’t happen in Jesus’ time.

And then there is this “Second Coming” deal. Yes, it will probably happen, but not until we current crop of humans get off our lazy-asses and do some saving of our own. Really, if you were He, would you be all excited to come back? Probably not. The Mean People beat the fuck out of Him the first time; and now, they’ve got worse weapons. If you want the Second Coming to hurry up and get here, and to be saved by Jesus, then you better get busy to save Him.

Take a good look at your life. Do you whine and complain that nothing works for you? Is your body a mess? Do you have difficult relationships? What about that job – does it make you crabby, but you make good money? Get busy and clean up your act. Save yourself first. Dig down deep and find the love within you. Remind yourself that you are a Divine Child of God. Remember that God’s decree is that you live joyfully, abundantly, and lovingly. You have the right to freedom and prosperity. Pure health is a gift. Own your power and stand strong in your beliefs. Become the person that Jesus saved. Only then will the Mean People go away. Remember that 1,000 years of peace we were promised? How ‘bout we make that forever?

Just imagine what antics your Big Brother Jesus has planned for you when peace is restored. I’m sharpening my marshmallow stick. How about you?

Happy 2022 – The Year of YOU

Forget the “I’m gonna do ___” resolution nonsense. It does nothing but provide you with an endless loop of procrastination, and things to blame. It is time to walk the life you only talk about. Go into your Heart Center and figure out what that means. How do you want to live? What are you passionate about? What do you enjoy? What steps do you need to take to live as the person you want to be?

Well, so-and-so says. . .. Do they live your life or do you? There is nothing wrong with doing research on something that interests you, and maybe a method of learning how to do it. But ultimately it needs to feel good and right for you, and not just because someone else says so.

We have been living in a time where many so-called experts tell us how, what and when to do something, regardless if it is a good thing or not. THEY ARE NOT YOU. You get to decide what you do. (Note: I’m not talking about criminal actions or being an asshole. Good thoughts, good things only, People.) And how about those of you who are too lazy to take charge of your life and constantly say someone or something is going to “save” you. How’s that working for you? No one is going to save you. I know I’m being a hard-ass, but I get really tired of listening to people who give their power away instead of taking responsibility for themselves. Get off your dead ass and do something for yourself! Say NO to things you don’t want, and YES to things that stir your heart.

Remember, we are each a Child of God. We were created as humans, but with a Divine Spark within us so that we remember WHO WE ARE. Put a torch to that Divine Spark, get off your lazy ass and build yourself a life of meaningful activities that bring you abundance, prosperity and contentment. Create it! Honor your incredible human body, use your amazing complex thought process, love yourself with intensity, and listen to the Divine Guidance within your soul.

Now if that’s not the best way to start the year, I don’t know what is.

Re-Vital-Isation

Hello Friends,

It’s been awhile since I’ve actually written a blog article. Another strange year, to be sure, and I did spend some time writing and publishing my new book Dealing With Sh*t: Becoming Your Badass Self: Fry, Lorrie K: 9798746815446: Amazon.com: Books I’d be much obliged if you purchased a copy. If you like my brand of writing style, I have no doubt you will enjoy the newest in my line of “Sh*t” books. (not about poop, in case you were wondering)

Anyway, I have been quite busy. The Colorado winter was long and cold this year. In March, we had an enormous amount of snow. When you are retired, you naturally spend more time at home. Now, I don’t mind this, being a homebody, but I do like to get out and walk. Not bloody likely with 2 feet of snow and more coming. So we traded snowballs for cactus.

Colorado in March
Arizona in June

I had been feeling anxious and restless throughout the early months of the year. You could blame it on the snow and cold, or blame it on the viral insanity. I suppose those things are true, but it was more than that. I felt an urgency to leave Colorado. My lovely, beautiful, 5-year-old home in a great neighborhood with food and drink and shopping all within a 5 minute walk began to feel like a prison. I was constantly on edge with keeping up with maintenance, not that it needed it, but you have to keep things up to avoid bigger issues later on. My Sweetie was usually off working on a project, so I took care of things. I had plenty of entertainment at home, as well as an infinite amount of information to be found online. But something felt “off”. I longed for some fun. I longed for less responsibilities. I longed for warm weather. There is nothing quite as nice as a swimming pool, beach, patio, bistro or afternoon cocktail in the sunshine, providing it’s not too hot. We have friends that were already living in Arizona. We had made several visits in the past few years, but I wasn’t that excited about it at the time. Still in my stress-filled work coma and couldn’t appreciate the good points. But suddenly, it seemed the place to go.

In April, we took a road trip to Phoenix to see if we wanted to relocate. We took a few days and drove around, and decided that the Sun City/Sun City West area was the place to be. Plenty of things to do, shop, eat, drink and be merry – or my newfound slogan “getting jiggy in the desert with the old people”. We did some digging into the real estate, and a couple weeks later my Sweetie flew down for a couple of tours. He picked the house I hoped for, on a golf course with a beautiful view from 2 sides of the home. He made an offer and it was accepted. Then began the real work. If you have ever moved, you know that it is a great deal of work, stress, time and money. Thankfully, we were both retired and had the luxury of time. Add to that, the listing and selling of our then-current home. People traipsing through trying to get a good view of the home, but with moving boxes stacked everywhere. But it happened, and it afforded us the home, the move and a renewal of our new home.

We went from a 5 year-old home to one built in 1973. Very interesting. Now, I love mid-century modern so this was just right. A three-story home to a ranch, which is wonderful, to say the least. The prior owner had maintained the home quite well, and it has some very cool characteristics, which we are preserving. If you want to know anything about these homes, look up Del Webb and Sun City. Loads of storage, big windows and patio doors open to the outside – and get this – big clothes closets. Yes, really. Although, it was a little short on space for my shoes, but most places are short on space for my shoes. I believe I’ve written about them before.

It began as a beige box. Beige walls, ceiling, trim and carpet. We ripped out the carpet and installed laminate flooring. We painted everything white, except for accent walls in this happy yellow color, incidentally called “Smiley Face”. (The original Smiley Face was created in 1963 – a true mid-century modern icon.) It kind of makes me feel like I’m at a beach; my favorite place in the world. Talk about re-VITAL-isation.

Still a little unpacking and work to be done – waiting on library bookshelves

My anxiety and restlessness came from a serious need to release a lot of my responsibilities and learn to play and have fun. I wasn’t really having that in my Colorado life. Colorado is a beautiful state, and Denver is very vibrant, but it is all primarily oriented towards the outdoor life. Nothing wrong with that, I had done plenty of outdoorsy things. But, when you are older, you just aren’t feeling the need to pitch a tent, load/unload a camper, hike or any of that stuff. Not that older people CAN’T, but I and my Sweetie were true urbanites. If you know anything about Sun City/Sun City West, then you know it was designed for the over-55 crowd. I have seen more 80-somethings, who are healthy and active, in the 6 weeks I’ve been here than I ever have before. If you get bored here, you are probably dead. There are 8 rec centers, and probably as many golf courses (I’m not a golfer) in this city, with plenty to do at each. I’m loving the walking pool. Like a water-filled rat maze and you walk in a current. Great exercise in 100+ degree temps. And then there is Bell Road. If you can’t find a place to shop, eat, drink, get services of any kind, then you just haven’t left your house.

Have I said yet that I love it here? Let me count the ways. I feel as though I am beginning to blossom and really enjoy life. Sure, we’ve been very busy and tired from working on the house, but that is short-lived and will soon be done. And then it’s “party on, dudes”. I think it’s about time for an afternoon cocktail.

Thought For Today, June 1, 2021

Happy June! It’s been busy times; Loving Your Sh*t is in the process of moving from Denver to Phoenix. Time to get jiggy in the desert with the old people. Wait, I am one. Makes me laugh to think about that. I’m young at heart.

Words of wisdom for anyone planning a move: at least three months prior to your move, seriously go through your house like Sherman clearing Atlanta and get ready of all the shit that you don’t need, don’t want, or any excess that won’t fit in the new house – especially if you are down-sizing, because you will have enough to do just taking care of all the paperwork and packing. We’ve had 4 trips to the landfill, 10 trips to donation centers and several giveaways to friends. You will be surprised how much you really don’t need.

Reminder: God Won

It’s easy to react and get thrown off balance during the external chaotic events. It’s a time when your faith gets questioned and you might even wonder if there really is a plan to bring the world back to light. This is your cue to bring your attention back within yourself. The heavy, dark energies swirling around are intended to distract you. Those on the Dark side want your focus on them and the fear that oozes from you. It’s their food. Do you want to give your power away to those whose only goal is to control you? NO!! Pull your head out of the television screen and shut it off!! The Light is your power; the Light is within you.

Sit and breathe for a few moments. Neither focus on nor push away your thoughts. Just let them scroll through your mind. Direct your focus into your heart space. Envision it filling up with the brightest, purest light you can imagine. Breathe it in, deep into your cellular level, filling every inch of you. Let it begin to radiate outward into infinity. Now imagine yourself in a picture with everything good that you can dream of. Maybe you are on a beach, a sunny day, with beautiful azure water in front of you. Maybe you are with the love of your life, family, friends, whomever. Everyone is happy, loving, playful, a bounty of food available, all needs met with no worries of lack. Your beautiful dream. THIS is what you need to focus on. For whatever you can dream of, you can manifest into real life.

There is no lack in God’s world. There is no fear or worry. All that we have been denied is being returned to us. We are in the midst of a spiritual war, and God has already won. In the spiritual world, time in always in the Now. In the physical work, time is linear. So when the two meet, it takes some amount of time for the spiritual to become physical. We are in that state now. The battle has been won, we are just watching it play out. Eat your popcorn and have patience. If you need a bathroom break, go, you won’t miss much. Good drama takes its time. The happy ending is coming.

Keep your focus within you. Pray, meditate, clean your crystals, consult your oracle cards, whatever rituals bring you peace and clarity. Don’t add to the energy of the outside mess, unless you like replaying the drama scenes. Keep your Light shining brightly. And remember, God WON.

Welcome To 2021!

The movie credits are rolling, the lights are coming up and it’s time to sweep up the popcorn and other carcasses from the movie known as “The 2020 Horror Picture Show”. You can crawl out from under your seat now. Let’s go out into the sunshine and take a breather before 2021 starts rolling.

Yesterday, my Guides gave me a message that 2021 is about Change and Choice. Sounds a bit like a rerun. They assured me that it is not the same. Last year, much change occurred over which we had very little control or choice. Old, outdated structures were dismantled or, at least, exposed and many people did the proverbial head in the sand to avoid dealing with it. Now it is time to step up and make choices.

There will continue to be upheaval this year, but it will be with the intent of completely getting rid of what does not serve the Greater Good and rebuilding into what does. What do you want your world to look like? Peaceful and prosperous? Or more of the same old slave-debt patterns that simply wore you out. It is up to every individual to participate in creating the New Golden Age.

You see, whether you want to acknowledge it or not, 2020 was a spiritual war between God and Satan. We know how that turned out. Yes, God WON. The evil that has controlled the world for centuries has been wrestled to the ground and chained up, waiting for Archangel Michael to stuff them into a hole that they can never come out of. It does seem incredulous that we have actually experienced the time of Revelations. I am not a reader of the Bible, and have no religious affiliation, but I have read the prophecies of this chapter. God really is looking out for us and wants us to experience peace, contentment, love, abundance, prosperity and all the seriously good stuff that you can’t even imagine.

Thus the battleground of 2020.

So now it is time to get off our pandemic-fueled fat asses and focus on creating a better life. God doesn’t always fix things for us, we get ideas and resources to build things for ourselves. You have choices about how to do that. It could be as simple (and usually the most effective) to visualize and focus your energy on what you want. Maybe you get involved in a community project. Maybe you become part of a team who goes into another country and teaches others the skills to create what they want (as opposed to just building something they don’t like). Maybe you stand up to the old corrupt structures and work to change them into service to others. Maybe you become a “Voice” through media to educate and inspire change.

It is our opportunity RIGHT NOW to create a new, beautiful world in which every being is valued, loved and experiences abundance and prosperity. Isn’t that what you have been dreaming of?

Think It And You Will See It

Focusing on what you want is very important as Manifestation has increased. This morning, I went to my clinic for a routine blood draw. Normally, Wednesday mornings are very busy and I did not look forward to sitting in the waiting area. So, I held the intention of very few people waiting, and me getting in and out quickly. I focused on that during my drive, and guess what? Less than 5 people in the waiting area and I was in and out in 15 minutes. Woo-hoo! Try it. Think it and believe it.

Happy Solstice!

And welcome to the Age of Aquarius. Relax as much as possible today and absorb in the higher frequencies. Envision a glorious future for yourself and others that focuses on co-creating and caring. Remember to go outside, just after sunset, look to the west-southwest and see the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn. A once in a lifetime event!
