Understand Your Role

Living Your Deeper Song

Ashe
(“Ah-Shay”)
 The Creative in me honors the Creative in you!

I’m a start-up gal.  I love to explore and identify ideas and use them in unusual ways.  I’m not always much of a completer but I’m definitely an originator.  It is important to know your calling and honor it as your special gift. 

Some of this I came to understand by studying the enneagram.  There are boss types and creative types and worker bee types.  Some people thrive on being in service to others.  It’s important to know your own preferences and honor them. 

If I insist on being strongly creative, then I probably need to find someone else to do the technical work of editing my podcasts.  If I love to strategize, I may best be in service by stepping in at various stages along the path of a project to help organize some ideas and structure them for action, a getting-projects-unstuck sort of person.

Know your role.  Know your gifts and let those guide your path.  

You may fill different roles in different situations.  I usually instinctively and organically step in to organize – whatever it is.  I also always want to write publicity or explanations or guidebooks.  I use my writing to focus thoughts    – including my own.

Look back over your life and notice the most rewarding, fulfilling experiences you have had.  What was your role?  How rewarding was it?  How would you adapt what you are doing today to make it more rewarding? 

Sometimes we get in a rut in playing our favorite roles.  Part of it comes from people calling on us to do what we are good at.  Other times we are so good at performing a function that it simply is usually our job to do. 

Go exploring.  Move outside of your comfort zone.  I’m not a particularly good artist, but I have taken art classes and I have a good time making line drawings of some of my journeys.  I have studied music and sung in many choral groups – now my musical expression is through native flutes and drums for my own enjoyment. Your gifts will evolve over the years.  Your talent will be applied to a variety of formats.  Go exploring.  

Notice what has evolved as a new opportunity for you.  Podcasts are a natural for someone like me who has two degrees in theater and was television talent. I have been a professional copywriter and a Content Development Coach. Now I get to write what I want to in my own newsletter.  

Your gifts will evolve. Where you apply them will unfold.  Go exploring.  Learn to use your gifts in new ways and see where it leads you. It’s not enough to simply understand your role, it is important to choose your role to fit where you are in your life path today. 

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I look at my path of the past and my path of today and bring forward the best in myself.

DEEPER SONG PROCESS 

• Look for new ways to apply the gifts you have been given.  
• What new roles are opening up into unexpected ways that the unfolding world is calling to you?

===INNER WORK===

How to Overcome Fear

I am writing about how to overcome fear to figure it out because I don’t have an answer.  My legs hurt a LOT when I get up from a chair.  I think it is because my structure is shifting, but it hurts and now I experience fear and apprehension before I stand up which simply makes it a worse experience. 

What do you do when you anticipate pain?  How can you change that fear? Anticipation can be numbing. 

Do you go into circumstances expecting the worst?  Do you picture all sorts of devastating scenarios before you move into a situation?  It’s really hard to keep a positive thought when your past experience has been painful.   

I send Reiki to my hips before I stand.  I center and take a calming breath before I stand – so I can stop the anticipation of pain that I expect at the move I am planning to make.  I need to focus on what I do that feels aligned. But boy, negative anticipation can really stop you cold. 

I don’t have an answer. As the pain stopped happening the fear went away. If you continually experience something negative you come to expect it. You anticipate it.  You fear it.  You tense up and make the experience even more extreme than it actually is.  

The next day I was able to stand up with less pain and the fear and apprehension begin to dissolve. How do you stop anticipating the worst?

I don’t have an answer for this.  Only the problem.  And the negative anticipation makes the experience worse.

 
What are you anticipating in your life that needs to be shifted? How will you do that?

Solitude

The centered awareness of being in your Still Point. Your complete immersion in the heartbeat of nature.  Losing your sense of self in the expression of music.  A quiet mind that makes room for deeper awareness. How do you find solitude?  How do you create stillness? 

Solitude is replenishing. It is restorative. It is revealing. You can be in solitude alone and you can feel alone in a crowd. Create moments of contemplative thought throughout each day.  Take a releasing breath.  Gaze out into nature. Allow for the deep absorption of the energy around you.  Be aware.  Take time to be alone. Find your Still Point and reside there.

===OUTER  WORK===

Forgive  Yourself

Looking back over my long life, there are some less than stellar choices that I made along the line. But I also know I made them in the moment from what I knew and understood and felt and experienced. So yes, they were somewhat unaware choices. Perhaps unaware of the long-term effect. Perhaps unaware of the immediate effect. I simply was not aware. And what’s true of you is true of others. People who hurt you or added negativity to your life were probably doing it out of simply being unaware of certain circumstances at the time. Everyone needs forgiveness for the past. Just let go and leave behind your less-than-stellar choices and actions so you can move forward. Forgive yourself. Forgive others. Let go. And move on.

When You Are ready the Answer Will Appear

I’m reading a book that is rich and deep and is exactly what I need to learn right now. Don’t you love it with the right information shows up in a form you are eager to accept?  And I have another book I will read next that will be equally expanding.  

So what do you do with new information?  In my process of absorbing an idea I write about it – here and in podcasts. That’s one way I figure things out.  Then I find creative ways to apply the concepts and experiment with them and adjust my actions as I get results. 

How do you explore a new idea?  Where do you find your transformative ideas?  Keep looking. Keep exploring and experimenting.

Goals and Your Progress

I have completed three months of physical therapy and next week I meet with my therapist to outline what I want to accomplish in the next three months.  This is interesting because setting these goals depends on how my body responds.  It is not like setting a goal I know I can accomplish. I’m not going to aim for walking to the end of the parking lot driveway.  I will aim for quality – standing tall, everything working smoothly and in coordination, and providing the foundation upon which to build up stamina.  

There, I found it – my goal is to strengthen my foundation – the strength and stamina, and flexibility that I can build upon.  

As you begin to consider goals for the coming year, how strong is the foundation you are building to stand on?  And what beliefs do you need to change in order to know that what you imagine is possible?

Lift your gaze.  And your expectation of what is possible.

===DEEPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE===

Recognize the Positive

Our thoughts can be positive or they can pull us down with their negativity. As you move through your day, notice the direction of your thoughts. Notice how much encouragement you give yourself. Notice how much discouragement you give yourself. And make some changes.  Look at what you have created and focus on those manifestations that truly represent the progress you choose to make. Pat yourself on the back for that. Release the less than stellar choices as experiments that you learned from.  Learn from your mistakes and move on. 

Self-Sufficiency Training

I journeyed to find out what I need to actively do to help my body, to restore its stamina and flexibility. The message was, “This is a form of self-sufficiency training. How much are you willing to do to strengthen your body and help it restore to some semblance of stronger usefulness?”

Do the work.  We have to do the work.  We can’t just sit and hope, we have to take action steps.  We need to be conscious of our choices. We need to structure our personal progress so we explore, develop and mindfully choose what we need to know and accomplish next.  Create your personal well-being program, your own self-sufficiency training.  What does that look like for you?

===OUR EVOLVING FUTURE===

Shine Your Light in the Corners

Those of us who are called are to not only raise our sights but also focus on shining our light of Consciousness Awareness in all the corners.  How do we do that?  

My version begins with looking for and identifying those who are working in light, who are walking the planet in an ever-deepening place of service. When you identify them, step up and walk beside them for a while. We support each other, we encourage each other, we learn for each other, we inspire and motivate each other. We teach each other. And perhaps we even protect each other. 

Be responsible for your own path.  Make conscious choices.  Takes conscious steps.  Lift your gaze.  

Keep walking upward on your path.  Keep listening to the encouragement you receive and notice where it comes from. 

In this continuing flow of  change, we must keep choosing – we must keep choosing light, we must keep choosing awareness we must keep choosing Cosmic Consciousness. We must choose it each day, consciously, with curiosity and determination as we search for the lessons and guidance to move us into a positive, inclusive, cosmic future. 

Shine a light in the corner of your life and take heart with what you find.  The corners are full of unexpected gifts to help you move purposefully along your path.

Do You Follow Your Insights?

It sometimes takes time to trust that inner voice,  your intuition, those hunches that seem to show up out of nowhere. But they are you talking to you. They are your inner voice, your inner wisdom, your inner guidance offering you nudges here in the human world. Pay attention. At least consider them. Perhaps explore them a bit to see how they unfold. Let your hunches direct you as those insights take you adventuring. You’ll be surprised where you end up.

===OUR UNFOLDING ROLE===

Your Soul’s Purpose

I turn 89 this month which means I have a lot of life to look back over to see what my soul’s purpose has been and still is. Some of the themes are evident, the curiosity, the creativity, the writing, with the common thread of spiritual searching. My path has held consistent themes. 

Finding your purpose is not always easy. You must embrace life wholeheartedly, explore many different pathways, and allow yourself to grow. Your purpose is as unique as you are and will evolve as you move through life.

Purpose is what excites  you.  It is what fills you with satisfaction. It’s what drives you. Can you identify your soul’s purpose? 

Jump Time

What appears to be chaos is actually opportunity. It is jump time. Time for us to take giant steps, leaps of faith, and trust that we will discard what is no longer needed and encourage what is beneficial for this next unfolding. So the old habits, the outdated thought patterns, the no-longer useful beliefs are dying and they are not happy about it. But they are no longer needed. They are to be rapidly replaced with a sense of world community that makes us care for each other, support each other, walk strongly beside each other. No wonder some people are really grouchy at this change. It goes against the grain. It makes their perspective outdated and wrong and not useful.

This is a giant jump we are taking. There’s new technology. New urgency. And those of us who are moving forward must let go of what is no longer working, what no longer serves us, what no longer serves others. It’s it is if we’re about to step out of a warm shower and choose a fresh wardrobe for the day. How do we want to craft our life? How do we want to shape our exchanges with others? All of life comes from our inner world. It comes from our beliefs and intentions and expectations. So we can actually sit quietly and make stuff up. We can visualize people living in harmony. In collaboration. And peace. We can learn to feel the experience of inclusion. And look for it and bring more of it into our day. We are jumping into the future with every choice we make. Make sure they are conscious choices.

Who are you becoming?

===CARA’S CORNER===

I Am Moving into the Cosmos to Do My Work

Here’s another of my shamanic journeys: 

Question: I have turned onto a new path.  What guidance can you give me? 

Journey: I am walking beside the male hiker guide that I met in my last journey. He whistles and walks jaunty down the path. I walk without my walker beside him. I don’t walk jauntily but I am waking strongly. 

Are you going to show me my path? I ask. He grins and takes a larger step. I follow. Suddenly we are in a circle from which emerges nine paths. There is no straightforward path, there is a choice to be made. And that choice will make all the difference. I want to go to the cosmos they say. Seven of the paths turn into one of the seven sacred rays. I do not want to choose a path of an individual ray I say. I want a higher path. The golden path. A higher path. My guide and I rise three feet off the ground. Angel With The Golden Wings comes down and takes my hand and off we go. We fly even past the Void into the Cosmic Consciousness. There is a humming there. Because those who are there are busy. They are imagining and creating scenarios in the air and they are helping others. I get to work. Suddenly I am in a long golden robe and I’m in the Circle of Light Beings. We have our Individual Harps playing a  song that is very intertwined. “This is one place I serve,” I say. Angel With The Golden Wings nods in agreement. “You need to get to the book on the biofields,” says my guide, my Male Hiker. That will give you some tools to begin to do deeper work. It’s OK to have this imaginal concept but the biofield is the way the work is done. Keep studying. 

“I am worried about my body and my capabilities to keep going because I’m having a really good time.” You have work to do and you’ll be able to do it. You are prepared for the work. You will do the work. You can do the work. You want to do the work. It is important work. Yes, you can share more journeys with the Deeper Song Community. Perhaps do a journey specifically for the group. Your body is entering a new phase of participation. Be patient with it be supportive of it, do some work with it so it can get strong again.

“I’ve just gotten out of my chair and it hurt my body a lot. Can you please help my body so I can do this better?” You have some choices to make and one of them is to care for your body better. Do that first. Keep your mind open. You have work to do and you will be shown what to do and how to do it and when to do it. Rise above your humanness. The Flying Indigo Rug is good, the Cat is good, the new direction is good. Let it unfold.

===SING A DEEPER SONG ===

Trust

My inner voice speaks to me. Sometimes I understand, sometimes I don’t. 

My inner voice speaks to me. Sometimes I understand, sometimes I don’t. But I always trust – trust its wisdom, trust its guidance. 

My inner voice speaks to me. Sometimes I understand, sometimes I don’t. But I always trust – trust its wisdom, trust its guidance. And I keep exploring.

Redefine Yourself in the Changing World

Creating Conscious Connection

Ashe
(“Ah-Shay”)
The Creative in me honors the Creative in you!

How do you prepare  yourself to participate in a world that is changing so rapidly?  There are no guidelines because new paths keep opening up.  What we get to do is go exploring, look closely at what is unfolding, and stay flexible. 

We’ve talked about the who-and-what statement before but because the world is changing so rapidly, it’s time to do it again from a broader perspective. We need to see what new and unexpected opportunities and needs have opened up and how our goals and expectations have changed. Become aware of how your place of service is evolving, see how who you serve has changed, and become aware of what you need to leave behind that is no longer yours to do.  

The operative word here is “change.”  The world is changing.  We need to change too. 

The more chaotic the world, the more I retreat into inner work as my place of service. But what does that look like? What does that do for the world? How do I share it?

In my journey work, I get phrases like: My work is about seeing possibilities, developing potential, and exploring unique combinations.

My current mission is about helping people realize they are higher consciousness, and our mission as Light Bearers is to hold High Watch for the planet and help others recognize the universal light within themselves. 

Our role changes as we change, as we become more aware, more prepared to move forward. And when the time is right, we are shown the next path to take. 

Spend some contemplative time and answer this statement:  I help (people you serve) to do (what you help them do) so that (what they can do because of what you offer/do.)

Start a document on your computer to keep track of the insights you receive about your evolving place of service – how it is unfolding, ideas you are to help it manifest.

I have collected notes from my shamanic journeys that say: 

“My work is about gathering lights together to make a more radiant way of being. My job is to help them realize their own powerful vibration and radiate it out where they are. So we are points of light. We are expanding consciousness.” 

These are simply ideas that have shown up in my own thinking and that call to me. You will find your own messages.  Simply go within and ask for guidance, then listen to the nudges and positive suggestions that show up. Listen and then choose. Our roles are changing. The path grows more specific. The group traveling it are more focused, we are the Circle of Light Beings, the Light Bearers, the guides to the New Humanity.

Do the inner work. Ask what your role is now in this unfolding of the new humanity.  Then go do that.

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I listen closely to my inner voice and learn to interpret its messages. 

DEEPER SONG PROCESS

• Learn to listen to your inner voice.  It may come as one word, it may come as a feeling, it may come as an unexpected circumstance.  Notice how your inner voice is speaking to you. 
• Listen.  And learn to interpret. 
• Take action based upon what you learn and how deeply it calls to you.

and
Journey to the Sacred Feminine

A Deeper Song Adventure

We contain both the sacred masculine and the sacred feminine. It doesn’t make any difference how we have manifested here on earth, they are both within us. And they each play a role. I thought that as an independent woman, I identified more with a sacred masculine, but now I understand that the sacred feminine is creative and inclusive, and eager to share and serve others. We have both the sacred masculine and the sacred feminine within us at all times.

Ode to My Inner Voice 

I love my inner voice. I love how she speaks up. I love how she nudges me. I listen to my inner voice who is within me all the time. Sometimes she gives me just a word but it is a word that I know that I am to build upon and explore and use as an anchor for where I am to go next.

Sometimes my inner voice gives me complete sentences and ideas to share and develop. When I turn to my computer and capture the messages from my inner voice, they can stay floating and etheric or they can get very detailed and instructive.  My inner voice is always inspirational and encouraging. 

My inner voice is very wise.

We are good friends, my inner knowing and I. I am grateful for her guidance. What is your relationship with your inner Voice? How will you deepen it? Be still and listen.  

Heal Your Whole Self

The imbalances that show up in your physical body are signs of an imbalance on two levels, your physical level and your spiritual level. You must work with both in order to bring balance to your human expression – the wholeness that is you. So as I do outward things to balance my physical body, I also have to look within at what beliefs and expectations helped to cause the imbalance. It could be fear. It could be uncertainty. It could be something I brought with me over the channels of time. Do some releasing work around whatever is manifesting out of balance on the physical plane. Release old beliefs. Release old fears. And center yourself in that awareness that we are cosmic consciousness and therefore we are innately whole, perfect, and complete. Make room for your body to align itself with that truth of who you are.

Watch for Emerging New Cycles

We are always somewhere in a cycle. The beginning, the middle, the end. It helps to be aware of that. And it helps to notice when a new cycle has begun. It helps to notice where you are in the changing cycle so you can see the potential and possibilities that are unfolding. A new cycle means it is a time to make new choices. A time to be aware and observant.  It is a time to redirect your path and choose your destination. Do you have a new cycle emerging? Where is it taking you? What are your choices? Are you listening?

Listen with your heart and follow its guidance. 

===OUTER WORK===

Do the Inner Work

As I begin my work to learn Zang Fu Gong from Daily Lee, I am reminded how important intention is. We can use our minds to focus an intention – an intention to release, to clear, to strengthen –  whatever is needed in a particular area of the body.  Directed Intention.  Let’s call it Directed Intention.  I have just finished reviewing one of Daisy’s classes as I write this and my whole body is tingling with Qi energy. Bear in mind, I cannot stand up straight at this point in time but I worked with the Qigon movements I was being shown and as I sit here writing this, my whole body is tingling.  And for all practical purposes I waved my arms around a bit and shifted my weight and my focus but the intentions were powerful.  Images of bringing up energy from the Earth. Images of bringing down energy from our Soul Star, Images to release and clear and increase strength.  Our mind is very powerful. Use your mind to send a specific intention into a specific area of your body.  Have those intentions be to release blockages, clear the energy meridians in that area of your body, strengthen your physical structure – all with the focus of your mind and a few intentional hand movements.  Focus the Qi energy within your body wherever it is needed. However it is to be used. Bring the resources of Gaia and your Soul Star into your body and direct them where they are needed. However they are to be used. Learn to interpret the energy flow of your body and use your intention to direct balancing Qi wherever it is needed.  

You focus energy with intention. Let the Qi do the work. 

===DEEPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE===

Ceremony As Mindfulness

I’m working on a podcast script about ceremony because I would like to understand the basic elements and also make some choices about adding more ceremony into my life. I’m looking for simple and easy things to do. Recently I drew “ceremony” in the oracle cards I made for myself and in the course of examining that concept, I realize that ceremony is mindfulness. So even the shortest pause, the shortest aware pause to acknowledge and reflect and accept is ceremony. What does that awareness change for you?

Pause to Listen

If you stop what you’re doing right now and close your eyes and take a relaxing breath and listen, you will hear the heartbeat of the universe. In the stillness is everything. In the stillness are the answers. In the stillness are the insights. In the stillness is a certainty and clarity about next steps. I call it our Still Point. Move to your Still Point to immerse yourself in the sacredness of the moment. Pause to listen and feel and experience and choose. Pause to listen.

Self-Healing – Do the Work

I am studying with two sources who are teaching me how we can heal and balance our bodies by moving Qui.  My body is sort of a mess with major realignment going on that makes most of my body muscles hurt.  I am taking Daisy Lee’s Zeng Fu Gong Form of Qigong and it is powerful.  (Qigong to Renew & Rejuvenate Whole-body Health Discover the Zeng Fu Gong Form to Boost Energy and Release Stress for a Balanced, Joyful life.)

These gentle moves began to immediately release and realign my body. I can do it even in my muscularly jumbled state and it is effective.  

I am also taking a free class with Deng, Ming–Dao on The Circle of Qi, The Tao of Energy that is giving me clarity and ideas on the power of Qui and how I can use it to re-balance my body. You can contact him to join the free class at facebook.com/dengmingdao His site is www.Dengmingdao.com

My exploration for ways to self-heal continues. I’m on the right path working with the Chi energy for self -healing and balance.

===OUR EVOLVING FUTURE===

Get Pro-Active in Creating Your Future

“Intentional change comes from imagining your future,” says Brian Clark in How to Create Your Future Self and I paused to see how I was doing.  

I’m not going to die any time soon but I am 88 and have begun to re-read Michael Harner’s books on life between lives.  

My body is in a process of change and I’m doing things to make it stronger and more aligned but the range of my future activities are pretty much based on how I help my body get back on track. 

But here’s the concept that interested me: “Step one is to accept that you have to proactively create the future self you want.

Just remember that the person on your current path is not the person you were before, and keep your vision for the next version of yourself top of mind.”

What steps am I taking to proactively create my future self?  I listen to my inner wisdom and go exploring where it takes me.  I am conscious of the new understanding that is being taught to me and I build on what I learn.  I am aware of the changing world, concerned about it, and have begun to define my place of service – my work as a transformational leader, holding High Watch for the planet and also holding a light up to show others how to live in their natural state of Cosmic Oneness. And of course, we teach to learn…

This step forward brings me back to the concept that we get what we believe we deserve and what we believe is possible.  I get to work on that – particularly the part of me that is possible physically.  Bummer.

What do you want your future to look like? The pandemic has opened up a whole new world of work-from-home opportunities that offers more freedom. Technology makes things possible that were not even thought of a few years ago.  So part of imagining our future self is limited because the new inventions and discoveries and choices are unfolding. 

I’m going to keep exploring and trying out some of the new ideas and possibilities that keep showing up to see how they feel for this stage of my life and if they will take me where I want to go. 

Stay open. Be curious. And keep exploring. 

Read How to Create Your Future Self by Brian Clark. 

Free Yourself from Habit

I have been playing specific songs each day with my flutes as part of my morning meditation.  They are songs I made up when I was drumming to the elements and other aspects of my life.  

Until one day I didn’t.  I stopped my routine, picked up my double flute, and began to improvise to nature.  And it was and is beautiful. And freeing. And inspiring.  And motivating. 

What have you been doing out of mindless habit that could be changed into a new adventure?

Where Are You Being Called to Serve? 

“These times they a changing” and we need to change with them. (See Bob Dylan’s song of the ’60s ) So what does that mean to the work you do? What are you offering? How do you spend your time? Who you spend your time with? Where are you being called to serve now?

When we look closely at all that we have to offer, we realize some skills we have, some things we offered are no longer needed.  Some of what is no longer relevant or we no longer want to do. And there are new ideas flowing in that need for room to grow. 

We have to choose. Given this new stage and age, given the circumstances of your life, given where you want to go next, what do you want to do create and offer next?

I have a new direction calling me and now I’m watching my focus shift and intensify. There are topics I will no longer address. There are portals I have yet to open. So my work has to be fluid. It has to be flexible and open. And I have to listen to the voice within. 

What do you love to do most at this point in your life? What is the most lucrative thing that you do, and what is the most lucrative and the least time-consuming thing that you do? What do you love to do? What do you want to learn? Who you want to serve? What are you being called upon to do from your inner wisdom? And which of your many gifts do you want to use at this point in time? 

How are you to change? What is your inner world telling you to do next? How are you preparing for it? Listen and choose with awareness. 

=== DEEPER SONG ORACLE MESSAGE===

Formation 

What is forming in your life right now? How are you assisting it in evolving into its most effective place of service?

Formation is a flowing process. It is an evolutionary process. It is allowing something to unfold and to paying attention as it does. Formation is about noticing the signs and the signals, and the shapes that are forming – pay attention to the gradual and unique formation of your unfolding offerings.

Your work, your focus is constantly forming. It shapes and reshapes itself to accommodate what it encounters. Open your heart and let your “next” form from your center. Let it bring with it all you need to know and all you need to give.  

What is currently forming is the expression of your inner being as it takes shape so you can share it with the world.  What is forming?  Clarity, insights, specific steps, new directions? All the formation of our life to change and support it in its natural ebb and flow. Embrace change and allow your life to move into a new formation. 

Sacred Earth Cards

Motion 

Motion is the movement of constant change.  Be open to the flow. Be aware of the fluidity of opportunities that invite you to change. Listen, feel, observe. Bring all that into your awareness and contemplation of the ongoing motion that is your life.  Conscious thoughtful actions steadily guided by your inner wisdom. Stillness.  Moving to your Still Point before beginning any action.  Life is steady motion, we are to be in thoughtful, mindful awareness of the choices that are offered and the thoughtful, intentional choices we make.  We are aware of the motion of high vibration – of higher consciousness, of higher purpose.  I am in motion today for the higher good.

===CARA’S CORNER===

Shift Your Focus – Raise Your Gaze

The more chaotic and self-destructive the planet becomes, the more I retreat.  A higher path has opened up and it is getting wider and more clear.  Not everyone will see it or choose it.  Bu t I’m on the higher path and plan to stay on it. 

In my version of being on a higher path, I work to not be pulled down into the negativity of politics and harmful chaos and negative thinking that is so prevalent on our planet. I can only do that by avoiding it, by not focusing on it or even thinking about it. I’m on a higher path and plan to stay on it.

My focus has changed and I’m working to keep it there.  I’m very aware of those of us who are moving into this role of Light Bearer who, among other things, help others recognize their own light within and step into it as their main path.  Not everyone will see this alternate path and that has to be Ok.  There is so much going on that is negative that I have to make conscious steps not to absorb any of it. I work to keep my sight raised to the unfolding path that leads me to a higher, more positive, more purposeful energy that I can function in and learn from and grow in.  I’m not leaving the planet yet, but I am exploring the unseen world.

Do not be pulled down or sucked in by the negative energy, the discord and wrong-doing that is so prevalent on earth today.  That is not where I am participating.  That is not where I am being called to serve.  My role is to keep my light focused on this higher path and help light the way for those of us who are on this higher journey. I keep my sight raised. And I hold high expectations of what is possible for those of us who are taking this higher road.

The Higher Path

I step upon the higher path and my footsteps lighten. 

I step upon the higher path. My footsteps lighten. I feel the compelling and supportive harmony that emanates from those on the path beside me.

I step upon the higher path. My footsteps lighten. I feel the compelling and supportive harmony that emanates form those on the path beside me.  I shine.  We shine.  We are Light Bears leading the way to a new reality.
