Goodbye to 2020

 On this second to last day of 2020, I give thanks for all the lessons learnt, lies unveiled, truths revealed and realizations received.

Most of us have lost loved ones, or someone we care about over these past months and we are collectively grieving for our losses, as well as the loss of our life as we knew it. Our power has been taken from us, by "so called"  authority. 

It is difficult not to feel incredibly angry about this situation we find ourselves in. Created in the image of God, we are creative, free thinking people who are being forced into a situation that many of us do not believe to be the way we are told it is, causing conflict between friends, family and even in ourselves as we wrestle with all the lies we are being presented with. "Authoritarian truth is not THE Truth"

Humanity has not taken care of Mother Earth, this is a fact. We have to wake up but I do not believe that will happen by spraying unimaginable amounts of chemicals onto ourselves and into our environment. It is not going to make things better. It will, undoubtedly add to the toxicity of an already toxic planet. 

Wearing a piece of cloth over our nose and mouth, no matter which way you look at it, if you THINK for yourself, cannot keep you safe or solve the situation.

Exercising, learning breathing techniques, taking vitamin C and zinc, eating healthily, educating yourself on HEALTH and NUTRITION, submerging your body in cold water, taking saunas, being in nature, laughing , singing, dancing and praying, being in the company of loved ones, be they friends or family,  now that is medicine you cannot equal or manufacture.

If we, as sovereign beings, cannot see this, then it is already too late. I fail to see how learned people are blindly and mindlessly following these nonsensical orders! It baffles me completely and utterly and concerns me greatly as we embark on a new decade. 

This piece by Kahil Gibran says it all.

On Death by Kahil Gibran 1883 - 1931

Then Almitra spoke, saying, We would ask now of Death

And he said: You would know the secret of death.

 But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life?

The owl whose night bound eyes are blind unto the day cannot unveil the mystery of light.

If you would indeed behold the spirit of death,

 open your heart wide unto the body of life.

For life and death are one, even as the river and sea are one.

In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond;

And like seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring.

Trust the dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.

Your fear of death is but the trembling of the shepherd when he stands before the king

whose hand is to be laid upon him in honour.

Is the shepherd not joyful beneath his trembling, that he shall wear the mark of the king?

 yet is he not more mindful of his trembling?

For what is it but to die  but to stand naked in the Sun?

And what is it to cease breathing, but to free the breath from its restless tides, that

it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?

Only when you drink from the River of silence shall you indeed sing.

And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.

And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
