Recognise This Connection For What It Is

When we ask for change, we must be open to what it entails. Acceptance is what the Universe is asking of you right now. That and unyielding faith in the fact that things are happening *for* you. For some of you, this may be a time of coming out of denial and recognising the truth. If they wanted to walk by your side, they would have fought to be in your life. Word for the wise: choose yourself. Do right by you without bringing shame into the equation. Recognise this connection for what it is. 

Exactly so. I recognise this connection for what it is. I fought to resolve the issue more than a year ago! I was always the one to reach out in that friendship, always the one to call!! Why should I bring shame into the equation by deciding to turn my back and walk away? I tried to reach out. I tried to resolve the issue. Why should I feel shameful by turning my back when I was not being met halfway? If they really cared they would have fought to be in my life when they saw I had turned my back. I have no reason to feel shameful. No. Absolutely not! Back at the ranch they are gossiping about how awful I am to all and sundry, when in fact they should really put themselves under the microscope! I did not choose to become ill at that time! Trigeminal Neuralgia is a F-ing Bitch to deal with!! It disrupts your whole life!! Now, this time, all I did was congratulate a new Mother (my ex friend's daughter) on the birth of her precious baby girl and I was shunned BIG TIME! Oh well, what is done is done. Let me not stress myself out as that is one of the key factors that triggers TN. I know MY truth! I am not going to stick around where I am not wanted!! I wish them all well on their journey ahead. I choose myself!! I am doing right by me! It took me way too long to realise that you shouldn't stay friends with people who never asked how you're doing. I now see that things are happening *for* me. End of story. 

Cry My Beloved South Africa

It all starts with former President Jacob Zuma being jailed for 15 months for corruption, fraud, money laundering and state capture. His supporters say they will lay down their lives to save him. Quite ironic they want to save the very man who did not care one ounce about them and stole food right out of their mouths! Next thing you know all mayhem has broken out in Durban, Kwa Zulu Natal, which is about 6 hours drive away from me here in Gauteng province, Johannesburg (JHB). Then you wake up on 11 July 2021 to this warning:

Please note
Protestors have now started looting and burning shops & businesses in Gauteng.
They are currently in JHB CBD.
We are not sure how far and wide they might spread.
Please try avoid major centers, local townships and shopping centers.
This may continue until Tuesday.
Please stay vigilant and do not panic.
Contact SAPS OR CPF if you have any queries or need assistance

You think is this for real? Yes, it sure as hell is! You sit glued to the radio, you watch the news...and there is nothing you can do. Our police minister, Bheki Cele, is no where to be found, yet he was quick to arrest white people when they were on the beach during the CV19 lockdown! You see the police standing around doing nothing, some even helping themselves to the looting! You sit in disbelief, shock, you want to cry at the devastation. Shopping Malls burnt, Cars...burnt...trucks transporting luxury vehicles...burnt! Warehouses where food is stored...burnt! OMG! These looters are stupid!

Cry my beloved country...I am heart broken!!! I wonder what those looters are going to say when they see the destruction they have caused in South Africa...all because of the evil that encouraged them to do this with a false promise to them...has this country not suffered enough? To all those looters...are you really a proud South African? Please don't say you are...and please don't blame this on apartheid either! To those looters, I hope your children are proud of you...you have set a fine example for them. I wonder if your 'Gogo' is going to be proud of you...shame...their hearts must also be so broken now...208 cases of vandalism and violence in South Africa ...To all those that put their lives on the line to try and protect us from this devastation...may you be blessed

The Taxi drivers and every other person did more to protect their communities and Malls than the South African Police or South African National Defense Force did!

You have to wonder whether the President of South Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa, is as remorseful as he claims to be...he certainly does not show it! You have to wonder is he also behind all of this? The ANC government is a divided party with inhouse fighting. 

Ramaphosa reckons their are 12 instigators behind this planned insurrection, as he calls it. 4 of the 12 have been arrested. Our other former President, Thabo Mbeki, has warned all South Africans to remain vigilant. He says : "Just because we know who is behind this, does not mean their network has been dismantled". His words can be no further from the truth considering this other woman's threat to Ramaphosa! This woman, by the name of Phasha something or other, had demanded that Zuma be released in 14 days or else.....this is her letter of demand - as follows:

Zuma’s supporters, including ANC member Phapano Phasha and the MKMVA’s Carl Niehaus, announced a list of demands that should accompany Zuma’s release. They say they expect President Cyril Ramaphosa to have responded to in 14 days.

Phasha said that Zuma must be released immediately and that all the legal targeting and “legal persecution that he has endured”, including the arms deal case, should stop immediately.

Amongst the other demands made by Phasha was the nationalisation of the mines, the South African Reserve Bank and other key strategic industries and means of production.

“A State Bank must be established without delay, and our national banks must be focused on specific areas of industrial development.

“Several black banks must be established, through easing their entrance into the financial sector. Similarly the insurance industry must be unlocked for the emergence, and ultimate control, of black players,” Phasha said.

Zuma’s supporters also called for free quality education, the end of stringent lockdown regulatory measures, the prioritisation of rural development and immediate and full implementation of the Resolution of the 54th National Conference of the ANC for the expropriation of land without compensation.

“The BRICS alliance that has been neglected and de-campaigned under the Ramaphosa government, must be resuscitated and strengthened. A living wage for all public sector workers, especially the police and nurses.

“All SOE’s must be protected from being privatised, and those such as SAA that have already been privatised, and sold, must be re-nationalised. Overall, free education, vocational training, and employment must be guaranteed for all of those who are willing and able to work,” Phasha said.

She said that their demands were for an equitable black, especifically African, owned and controlled economy.

“We are almost 30 years into our democratic breakthrough, and yet the economy of the country continues to be in the hands of a white minority that hates and mercilessly exploits black South Africans.

“They hate even those compradore black capitalist agents who enable their continuing exploitation of the vast majority of black people. They are thriving on dividing and ruling us,” Phasha said.

She added that their campaign for Zuma’s release and for their demands to be implemented, will not cease until their objective to achieve a truly liberated and economically empowered country is achieved.

“Failing to do so is not an option, because the terrible alternative we live and see right now, and it is truly too ghastly to contemplate.

“Our demands, as contained in this media statement, will be delivered tomorrow to President Cyril Ramaphosa. In the light of the urgency of the situation we expect a response within 14 days,” Phasha added. Political Bureau. End.

I have highlighted the paragraph where she mentions the white minority. These blacks are the one's that hate the whites yet they always try to blame the whites for their failings. They were handed a First World country 27 years ago...over the 27 years they have turned it into a Third World country!! They always use apartheid as the blame card!

Not only that. She is clearly a security threat. In any other country she would have been arrested for these threats!!

Time will tell. We can only pray for South Africa! #PrayForSouthAfrica #SaveSouthAfrica

Missing You Come's In Waves

The moment that you died my heart was torn in two, one side filled with heartache and the other died with you.

I often lie awake at night, when the world is fast asleep, and take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon my cheeks.

Remembering you is easy, I do it everyday, but missing you is heartache that never goes away.

I'll hold you tightly within my heart, and there you will remain,

Until the joyous day arrives, that we will meet again.

I miss you Angie! I wish we could still laugh and talk about everything like we used to.

I miss our sister weekends...we eventually named them Angie weekends.

I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.

All I have are memories, and your picture in a frame.

Your memory is my keepsake, with which I'll never part.

God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart.

Missing you comes in waves, and today I am drowning

I love you so much!

R.I.P to heavens most beautiful angel.

She Dances

She dances. She sings. She gives. She takes. She loves. She creates. She agrees. She disagrees. She sees. She hears. She grows. She sweats. She sheds her skin. She changes. She becomes enlightened. She smiles. She learns. She laughs. She frowns. She cries. She bleeds on the pages of her days. She walks on hot coals. She walks through fires. She climbs mountains. She falls asleep as her head hits the pillow. She raises her face to each new day. She lives life with intention. The music to her life has a different tune and is always filled with a different rhythm, but she always wears the same dancing shoes. 

What Is Luxury?

 

I Don't Care

"I don’t care how spiritual you are. How long you can melt in the sweat lodge. How many peyote journeys that have blown your mind, or how well you can hold crow pose. Honestly. I don’t. I don’t care what planets fall in what houses on your birth chart, how many crystals you have or how vegan your diet is.

I want to know how human you are. Can you sit at the feet of the dying despite the discomfort? Can you be with your grief, or mine, without trying to advise, fix or maintain it? I want to know that you can show up at the table no matter how shiny, chakra-aligned or complete you are - or not. Can you hold loving space for your beloved in the depths of your own healing without trying to be big?

It doesn’t flatter me how many online healing trainings you have, that you live in the desert or in a log cabin, or that you’ve mastered the art of tantra.

What turns me on is busy hands. Planting roots. That despite how tired you are, you make that phone call, you board that plane, you love your children, you feed your family.

I want to know that you can show up and do the hard and holy things on this gorgeously messy Earth. I want to see that you can be sincere, grounded and compassionate as equally as you are empowered, fiery and magnetic. I want to know that even during your achievements, you can step back and be humble enough to still be a student.

What’s beautiful and sexy and authentic is how well you can continue to celebrate others no matter how advanced you’ve become. What’s truly flattering is how much you can give despite how full you’ve made yourself.

At the end of the day I don’t care how brave you are. How productive, how popular, how enlightened you are. At the end of the day, I want to know that you were kind. That you were real. I want to know that you can step down from the pedestal from time to time to kiss the earth and let your hair get dirty and your feet get muddy, and join the dance with us all."

By The Book

Essential Meaning “Abiding by social rules ~ Conformity ~ Respecting cultural or family customs ~ Universal Laws”

The Oracle’s Message: “The universe works within a structure of Divine laws and principles that provide a framework for human experience and evolution. The Law Of Abundance, The Law Of Prayer, The Law Of Karma, The Law Of Attraction, The Law Of Thought, The Law Of Compensation and the Law Of Nature are only a few that are known. These principles create perfect order and operate with a kind of precision beyond human understanding. Even revolution has its place in universal law. Human beings, in turn, have their own laws and customs that vary from culture to culture and family to family. Laws keep social order and govern behavior, reflecting an instinctive understanding that harmony is important. This is a time to learn these laws and conform to them, rather than being the rebel and flouting them. When this card appears, submit to structure and follow the rules even if they seem to make no sense. Release resistance, for universal laws will correct any disharmony. Open your eyes to those universal laws, and it will be easier to go by the book at this time.”

~ by Colette Baron-Reid

It is imperative that we learn to live by the Laws of the Universe and allow them to work in our favour. Our society has many laws that we must abide by in order to maintain structure and safety in our everyday environments. When we think of laws, we may think of restrictions, we may feel that we are held back. We may worry about the penalties of breaking the law and what that would look like.

But what about the Universal Laws? Have we ever thought deeply about how these really affect us and our ability to manifest our desired reality? The Law Of Abundance states that we are all equally worthy of the abundance of the Universe. The Law Of Prayer states that all of our prayers be heard, and all those that are for the Highest Good Of All, by the Grace of God, be answered. The Law Of Karma brings us the consequences of our actions. The Law Of Attraction magnetizes to us what we are attracting due to our own vibration, thoughts, feelings, beliefs and emotions. The Law Of Thought is closely linked to the Law Of Attraction in that whatever we think over and over is what will be created around us, for better or worse. The Law Of Compensation deals with that which is inherently ours and cannot be taken from us. The Laws Of Nature are many and deal with the unbreakable rhythms and cycles of Nature, Mother Gaia, the weather, elements, environment and Cosmos, birth, death and rebirth.

How can we use these laws to the best benefit of ourselves and our own lives, with the intention that they work for the highest good of all? It starts with acknowledgment of their deep and unmovable power, and the mindfulness to life by them daily. We are required to filter our thoughts, learn to control our emotions. We must learn to release the drama and reactivity, and embrace peace and thoughtfulness. We must look at our thoughts, actions, emotions and intentions and fuel them purely with Love.

When we can do this, we can do anything… love, heal, create, manifest, dream.

It’s all possible using the Laws Of The Universe.
