The Week Ahead: 7/02/2012

The seventh month of the year begins on a quiet and relaxed tone. You have this week to rest in the pause of the Fourth of July holiday [in the United States] before being romanced by the next big wave of expanded Light that is set to shine on us. Make this a week of connecting to and with those individuals and activities that bring you pleasure. The peacefulness of the week will be perfect support for the nature of such activities, so go ahead, and plan a get together or a getaway. And to receive the settling of what Gaia has been cosmically gifted with throughout June take some intentional time to connect with land – tend to plants, hike or walk, spend the day at the beach or lake, have a picnic and eat on the ground, or better yet camp. It’s certainly not every week that the universe is in our corner giving us gentle hugs and down-time so take advantage.

As we move later into the month the theme of “still contentment” comes in and each of us will be acting on the emerging truths that have been bubbling up from all our 2012 integrations. Expansion has brought a consistency of Intelligence and Wisdom that is available to the conscious mind 24/7. Get ready to have your acute awareness develop even further for July folks. You are about to refine your ability to make conscious choices based on the truth of the moment. Because of this you are going to experience your life differently. The old fun-and-games way was through the ego and personality, through separated feelings. The new penetrating way will be through knowing and intuition in a heart-centered space. From an orientation of deeper stillness you will understand what needs to happen from the inside. The Soul is set to have domain in every thought and feeling. At first this may seem scary as you won’t be supported by any external sources. Just remember as you move into this shift that validation and security about choices will now emanate from your inner sanctuary.

July is also going to be the time when you begin to see the ingredients of how you manifest all your pieces of creation as they get together like dominoes falling into line. This will clarify for you what you have been committed to and what you value most in life. As you evaluate what you are creating you will begin to establish what truly serves your rising truth of Self as Spirit. You are going to feel like doing a through cleansing of your vibrations as fine tuning what you want to attract becomes more apparent.

As you become more conscious you are going to become clearer and clearer in regard to following the path that leads to your real power. You are truly discovering how making choices over time, with consistency, creates a reality. You will discover what creates suffering. You will discover how much of your reality you have created unconsciously. July is going to be a time to become more effective as a Creator as everything is much more immediate, and creative energies run high on the winds of change.

You must be especially clear this summer; focus your intentions on expansive goals suitable for these times of change and back them up with actions that bring the very best outcomes. You are responsible for enhancing your life and using your mind to innovate beneficial changes. Live an inspired life! The energies are now quick and fast and will follow your focus. Throughout July great surges of life force energy will compel you to operate in higher states of consciousness. You will experience bursts of comprehension and new inspiration as a new rhythm of the heart seeks expression through the body, preparing you new directions in biological accessibility. You inner reality naturally manifests itself in the outside world, and the more awareness you have about your feelings and beliefs, the easier it becomes to create beneficial experiences. The outer world is a direct feedback system, showing you the nature of your inner world.

Everyone has been making most of their choices from tribal consciousness, trying to fit in, or have social acceptance, no matter how limited it has actually been. It has all come out of the judgment of right and wrong, good and bad. You, as the awakening soul, will see how little consciousness there is in the world about making conscious choices. Mass consciousness operating under the Old paradigm has basically been a group of adult children looking for someone else to tell them what to do. As the New pronounces itself there will be an irresistible curiosity to see what happens when one goes against the social grain. You may be surprised at the ones who actually stop in their tracks to pay attention to the Soul voice inside.

Now, as you are well aware, there are still many, many people around the globe who do not operate with much conscious awareness; nonetheless, these times are a testing ground to awaken all of humanity to its inner power. The grand plans of the shift are based on a massive acceleration of energy to birth a new expansion of consciousness in humankind. To one degree or another, all people are immersed in the process of exploring entire new areas of growth and states of awareness.

Yes, there are pieces coming to fruition in July. Pieces that will be seen and felt as individuals take responsibility for the energy and attitudes they bring to the world. Won’t it be nice when the majority of people you know rise up and take dominion over their lives in a consistent, congruent, collaborative, and sacred manner? How about the day you see them lose the fear and step into whatever actions are called for in order to align with the integrity of the Soul?

Yeap! That’s the day you and I will be dancing in the streets and yellin Hallelujah!

Much is happening this day. You know this. You feel it. Yet, because the media, which you do not trust, does not report it, you are in doubt. This would bring chuckles to us, dear hearts, except for the fact that it does not serve you well at all. If you cannot clear these doubts from your minds, at the least detach yourselves and watch with anticipation.

We are at the point now where the question of when has become irrelevant. The answer to that is now. Our concern is with thoroughness and safety. You will have your confirmations soon enough. The changes you have waited for so long are proceeding. They may not appear in exactly the manner that you planned, but they will occur.

Given the opportunity to understand and to change their ways, a great many will do so. It is likely that you also have contributed in some ways to the problems in the past. Is that not so? Allow others to see their errors now, as well. The light of truth will cause many to say, “What have I done?” That has already been happening across your world for quite some time.

Those who have consciously caused the harm are another matter, and they are being dealt with. Your task, as we have repeatedly urged you, is to stay centered and calm, and to keep bringing love into the equation.

The increasing intensity of incoming energy will prove quite enough for most of you to deal with. It will bring up quite a lot of things in your lives which have been dormant for long times. Some of it you will not even recognize, as it is in your DNA from generations past. It just needs to be looked at and released. Some of it, however, you might be surprised to find quite amazing and desirable. Feel free to keep and develop those things, if you wish.

The remainder of your year will become increasingly enjoyable now. Problems there will be, but we are sure you have grown enough to handle them, and they will be far outweighed by the progress you will find, both inside and outside of yourselves.

There continue to be opportunities to reach out and help others. If you are in a position to do so, please do. If not, please send your prayers and love. Take seriously now the effect your prayer and intention has upon the world. As more of you learn this, the effect is strengthened even further. Please see your efforts as joining and supporting each other. Keep watch for every chance to send your love and light, just as we do. Feel its effect. Understand its power. And importantly, give thanks for it.

And leave the days and hours to fend for themselves, dear friends. They matter so little. The time is now. That is what matters. When you look back, this all will have passed in the blink of an eye. We offer, once again, our love and aid upon your call. We are ever present with you. Good day, dear friends. Excellent day!

Featuring Author and Researcher Jim Marrs - We have come a long way since
the days of the 1950s, when the big question concerning "flying saucers" was "Do
they come from Mars or Venus?" Today, a much more sophisticated audience asks
about worm holes, hyper-dimensional travel and electro-magnetic wave energy.
Cutting edge physics is rapidly bringing thoughtful persons to the point of at
least understanding the concepts which may begin to explain the propulsion
systems of UFOs. But is this something truly new and modern or are we just now
rediscovering technology that may have existed on the Earth thousands of years
ago? Was this technology depicted in the Bible and the ancient Hindu Vedas? The
national security state of Germany during World War II by all accounts was on
the track of such technology and there is evidence that the new national
security state of the United States has secretly continued this work. There is
even tantalizing evidence to suggest that the impetuous attack on Iraq may have
been more about the desire to gain control over ancient technology than to
obtain new oil supplies. Whiche
ver nation can first control energy at the atomic
and sub-atomic level will become the leader in the search for free and clean
energy production, faster-than-light speed, anti-gravity and perhaps even
dimensional and time travel. How close are we to such technology? Have we
reached it already?

Archangel Metatron Channel
The Artifical Moon of Saturn
& The Lunar Effect

Metatron via James Tyberonn

Greetings Masters, I am Metatron Lord of Light, and I greet each of you warmly, knowingly, in a vector of unconditional love !
Dear Ones, the changes taking place on the Earth, are prompted by changes taking place in the Cosmos. Every celestial body, every, planet star and moon in your Galaxy are in harmonic symphony, in support of what is happening in 2012 on your planet Earth. We have told you before that your religions have excluded the science, and that science has omitted the spiritual. Now in 2012, the two are joining full circle. Your scientists are beginning to recognize that there is intelligent design in the Cosmos, and your religious leaders are beginning to acknowledge that 'you are not alone'.
There are visionary academics and writers such as Graham Hancock, David Childress, Richard Hoagland and Semir Osmanagich who are leading the way in revealing more to you about humanity's true origins and history. And we tell you removing the shadow is tantamount to clarity and wisdom.
The Cosmos is shifting, physics are expanding. You are discovering that the Laws of Physics, which you thought were written in stone, are shifting and expanding. That expansion is multidimensionality. And moreover Masters, you are discovering that thought, divine thought is the creator of all that is...and that you are a part of that. Even the most die-hard main stream scientific think-tanks are being invaded by a younger generation of more dilatant unsuppressed researchers, who are aware that there is intelligence in the Cosmos, in the changing order of physics. Not just in the realization that you are not alone, but in the knowledge that the creation around you could not be random. There is a guiding force in physics, an aware intelligence. We have told you before that certain of what you term 'Angels' are the holders of the 'Laws of Physics', and we tell you now, that everything in the Cosmos is aware. The planets, stars, moons and even that you term the void, is alive, conscious, aware and in support of humanity.
Moons, Planets & the Living Cosmos
Lunar effects on planets, solar systems and indeed Galaxies are extremely important and vastly influential. You academics are becoming more and more aware of the myriad intelligence & energetics of planetary, stellar & indeed lunar gravities.
Your own planet has had more than one moon, in its history. We tell you a truth that many have already speculated...and that is that your present moon was 'put in place' billenia after the Earth's formation. At that time, it was much closer to the planet, and the backward drift it is currently orbiting within, is much further than its original placement.
Does it not seem very interesting & compelling that your present moon is capable of perfectly concealing your Sun during a total eclipse? Do you understand then, that if the moon were not on the precise orbit it is in, not located on the specific distance between earth and sun that this would not occur? Perhaps you will consider that an intricate engineering design & plan is in place!
We also share with you that one of the moons in your solar system is artificial, and it is a stabilizing auto regulated computer. Evidence of its unusual properties and design has been captured in the photos of the Cassini mission. These photos are raising serious speculation among your scientists.
Saturn & Iapetus
One of the moons of Saturn, is a technically conceived construct, and was put in place for specific purpose. Its gravity and orbit influence Saturn. And we tell you that your Earth is very influenced by the energy of Saturn, and thus by the effect of Iapetus on the Saturnian system.
Most of you on the discovery path of metaphysics acknowledge to some degree the influence of astrology on humanity and the earth. Astrology is not folklore, rather it is science of how the planets affect you through their succinct gravitational waves and energetic emissions. Every planet in your solar system exudes unique frequecial gravitational waves as well as a 'singature' energy. The energy is plasmic, subatomic charged particles that are projected geometrically through the northern poles of each planet. In a manner of speaking they are similar to 'white holes' in the sense that the energy projected is hyper-dimensional, meaning that it is multidimensional energy, received from higher dimension and projected into your solar system. The projection poles have a geometric signature, and that polar geometry is determined by the rotational factors (inner and outer torque) of the planet and the vibratory rate of the hyper-dimensional energy emission. Every planet and moon in your solar system supports the earth and vice-versa.
There is somewhat of a simplistic comparative analogy between planets and their moons, suns and their planets and atoms with circulating electrons. Just as the addition of one orbiting electron changes the energy and nature of an atom, and indeed molecule, additions of moons change the resonant energy of each planet. Each planet affects the energy of its stellar centre.
The Voyager & Cassini Saturn Probes
The images sent back to Earth by the missions of Voyager and more recently, the Cassini probe have revealed specific anomalies about Iapetus that are intriguing, and are perhaps some of the most uncloakable evidence of extra terrestrial existence. Although in truth your own planet abounds with such evidence in what has been for the most part, dismissed and unacknowledged; appropriately termed forbidden archeology. The Voyager and Cassini probes have revealed quite a few extraordinary anomalies on Saturn's moon Iapetus, including its 4 million-foot-long equatorial wall, hexagonal craters, box-like surface structures, and tower-like antennae structure, as well as its dark/light aspects and unusual circular orbit.
Though this is explained away by main stream science, we tell you even now your more enlightened astrophysicist are becoming increasingly aware that Iapetus (moon of Saturn) is 'artificial', though most dare not as yet seriously express such nonconventional belief. We tell you that the moon called Iapetus which satellites the extreme outer orbit of the 'Ringed-Planet' was put in place for specific purpose by the highly advanced extra terrestrials. Iapetus is of intelligent design and there is great purpose in this.
Visionary
In Arthur C Clarkes visionary book, 2001 a Space Odyssey, Dr Bowman, the main character, discovers that the true purpose of the mission is to explore Iapetus, the third-largest moon of Saturn, in the hope of contacting the society that buried the monolith's on Earth and on the Moon.

As he nears Iapetus, he sees a similar monolith on its surface. He decides to go out in one of the extra-vehicular pods to make a closer inspection of the monolith. Programmed for just such an occurrence, the monolith reveals its true purpose as a star gate when it opens and pulls in Bowman's pod. Before he vanishes, Mission control hears him proclaim: "I'm inside Iapetus...The things hollow and it goes on forever ! ... Oh my God, it's full of stars!"

Interestingly the book was written years before the Voyager and Cassini craft revealed the 'black hole' on Iapetus. The Cassini mission also revealed images that show the unusual characteristics of radar reflectivity on Iapetus, as well as mystifying anomalies of light and dark, brightness variation as if portions of the moon were illuminated by an artificial or internal process. It was also revealed that an unusual linear wall 12 miles high, 12 miles wide and over 800 miles long, appearing much like a symmetrical weld, stood in a straight line across the equator of Iapetus. This was not un-noticed by your NASA scientists. One took the risky stance of speculating that Iapetus appeared to be 'artificially modified' and represented the best case evidence of advanced life in the solar system. Visionary scientist Richard Hoagland has made many conjunctures about Iapetus, many of which are indeed correct.

Your scientists are well aware that Iapetus orbits Saturn in an unusual 15 degree elliptical path, affording a interesting non parallel route around Saturn. All other moons rotate at precisely the same plane as the rings of Saturn. The moon Phoebe, alters at 5 degrees and flows in the reverse direction.

We tell you that Iapetus is of 'ancient' Arcturian construct. Its architecture is indeed a derivative of the Platonic solids, and is in fact what may be termed a truncated dodecahedron. The Cassini images reveal that it is not truly spherical as are most celestial bodies, and in fact has geometric lines that adhere to the dodecahedron mass, although billions of years of ice & dust collation on the surface skew the signature dodec-shape somewhat.

Those of you who are familiar with the science of that termed 'Sacred Geometry' are aware that tetrahedrons will fit perfectly inside the polyhedronal dodecahedron. The flattened surfaces that appear as platelets on the surface of Iapetus have been surmised by some visionary scientists as geo surfaces of the tetrahedrons, and we tell you they are correct. This is verified by the specific 120 degree angled star tetrahedronal spacing.
Iapetus is indeed an 'artificial' moon, constructed with purpose, and specifically placed in its succinct orbit around Saturn. It was put in place to modulate the gravities & frequency of Saturn's Crystalline symphonics, projected frequencially by what you term the crystal Rings of Saturn.

The Rings of Saturn
Humanity has always known that Saturn was different from the other planets. Its incredible rings stood out in a serendipitous beauty that differentiated it from the other planets, once humanity regained the ability to observe celestial bodies. We tell you that Saturn and her rings play an incredible role in your solar system.
The rings of Saturn are in constant flux, and provide the vibration coherency that modulates the resonance of your solar system, and indeed the Ascension process ongoing of the Earth. The rings of Saturn are composed of unique crystals that emit a harmonic vibratory resonance, a coherent frequencial song.
Saturn represents the stargate/entry point of Arcturius into your solar system physical and nonphysical realms. More complex, it is the wormhole of the Torus effect for your system. As observed by your Voyager explorer craft and indeed the more recent Cassini mission, the north pole of Saturn is composed of a remarkable double concentric hexagon, and the south pole is an elliptical swirling ovid. This mystifies your main stream astrophysist. It is a phenomenon of 'base-60' hyper dimensional torsion physics, as yet not grasped by your current science.
We tell you the hexagonal pole of Saturn emits incredible energy, far more energy than the planet absorbs from your sun. (as do all planets in your solar system). The hexagonal geometric pattern is an energy signature, a wave pattern indicative of the torsion-energy level being emitted. The incredible energy is coming from another hyper-dimension of the Cosmos.
The entire 'Saturnal System' is an immense regulatory force that affects not only your solar system, but the Earth and humanity. Saturn, the rings of Saturn, and several of its moons, particularly Enceladus emit crystalline harmonics, massive waves of gravitational energies and plasma. This directly affects the energy of humanity at this time.
Strong correlations absolutely exist between the energetic state of the earth's field and the effect on the field of each human. Energies such as coronal mass ejections, and indeed the plasma ratio of anions to cations not only effect human behavior, but by induction effect the ability of the human Auric Field and chakric Mer-Ka-Na to more efficiently access the manifold of multidimensionality, parallel realms and time holograms.
Just as you are aware that magnetic portals exist on the planet Earth, collating the suns massive energies , so are there crystalline portals that collate the coherency of plasma emissions & light waves.
All forces that alter the earth's electromagnetic & crystalline fields are also changing yours. The Saturn system is generating an accelerated coherency in the Ascension of your Earth, for indeed the Ascension can truly be defined as the expansion of the earth's dimensional matrix into higher fields of crystalline resonance. As such the Crystalline Grid is absolutely receiving the crystalline codes from the Saturn system.
Iapetus is a massive auto-regulated computer that is involved in tracking and indeed moderating the Saturnian system, you see. Its specific orbital path is aimed at influencing the Rings and pattern waves emitted from the icy crystals. It triangulates with Saturn's reverse orbit moon, Phoebe, and Saturn itself in this effort.
The Saturnian system played a major role in combination with the Cosmos and indeed the Earth's moon in the explosion of life on your planet that took place in what is termed the 'Cambrian Radiation'.
(Insert Note: The Cambrian explosion or Cambrian radiation was the relatively rapid appearance (over a period of many millions of years), around 530 million years ago, of most major animal phyla, as demonstrated in the fossil record, accompanied by major diversification of organisms including animals, phytoplankton, and calcimicrobes.)
The current activation of the Saturnian system is again playing a major role in the shifts of the planet. Specifically in the environmental alterations and energy shifts, that will code the crystal grid as well as the crysto sun disc within the Crystal Vortexes of Arkansas and Brazil. This synergizes symbiotically with the biological shifts in the human into opalesque crysto- silicon base body.
The coherence within the field generated by your Mer-Ka-Na Chakric system, is directly influenced into more vibrant optimal states by the crystalline coherency generated from Saturn. There is a stability therein. Those who are in a more incoherent state are more mal-affected by the ongoing changes in the earth's field while those in a coherent state are less affected.
The Earth's Moon
The Earth's Moon enables physical life to occur on the planet.
Beyond this essential enabling, your moon additionally affects humanity far more than most of you in current times recognize. You are familiar with the moon through your recognized sciences and through your mythology and fables. Some of you are aware of the moons influences in what the main stream considers to be loric or pseudo science, termed astrology, although more advances civilization of your past and future recognize astrology for its validity in terms of its effect on your emotional, physical and mental aspects.
The moon provides vast service to the Earth, but the Earth also reciprocates, and provide advantageous service to the moon.
The Moon effects humanity in many spiritual means that are not as well remembered, not as well understood in current times as in the past. The Moon is absolutely conscious and sentient, and in many ways is responsible for the Earth's ability to support not only physical life, but the spiritual development of humankind whilst in the Earth-Plane energies.
The phases of the moon allow for specific periods that the adept human can utilize to seek deeper understanding. Certain phases are embellished with both gravity and light that absolutely balances the human Auric Field , which of course includes the mental and emotional bodies. We will tell you that without this living 'lunar' cycle, your ability to dream, to enter into that essential field of re-calibration, which you term the sleeping state, would not be as easily or effectively accessed.
Just as the Moon brings reflection, offers light in areas of darkness, so then does the Living Moon' assist you in gaining clarity in your life's movement, in gaining a great and greater understanding of how to move forward in areas of uncertainty or shadow.
The reflective light of the moon is very different from the direct light of the sun. It influences you quite differently. Yet, in many ways it is just as essential to your well being as is the light of the sun. The lunar effect is that there is prolific correlation between specific stages of the Earth's lunar cycle and the emotional field and aura of humans that is far more than just variation in light levels. Lunar field waves vary according to moon phases.
Crysto-Electric Aura
You are aware that human biology generates an electromagnetic field similar to that of the earth. And we tell you that the human aura is shifting into a Crysto-Electric Field (CEF), with greater & different arrays of circuitry, frequency, potency and colors. Similarly the earth's ionosphere and magnetosphere are shifting.
2012 is an extreme year of shift. While a glorious event, the 2012 year of Ascension is also an intense time of great frequencial movement. As the 144 Crystalline Grid completes on the 12-12-12, telluric frequencies accelerate and drastically so. Strong correlations have been drawn between the state of the earth's field and the effect on the auric field of each human. We tell you that anything that is changing the earth's field is also affecting yours. It is the physics of induction. As such, the human aura must convert to crysto-electric Mer-Ka-Na in order to optimally up-shift and manage the stress of these alterations. The new circuitry operates in coherent light.
This is why we have channeled the importance of Auric Maintenance as the cornerstone of the teachings provided in the Metatronic Keys. The use of living gems and coherent phi crystals are important tools in this process. Take time to study the energies offered by single refractive, double refractive gems in combination with lapis lazuli as taught in establishing the 'Metatronic Energy Shield' applicable to the crysto-electric aura.
These not only fortify the crysto-electric aura, but also symbiotically assist & enable the 'biological coherence shift 'that can now be more effectively projected from within each human cell, and indeed the human heart in the crystalline age you call the Ascension.
Those who are in a more incoherent state are more affected by changes in the earth's field while those in a coherent state are capable of managing the shift without auric circuitry disruption through mechanical equalization of the exterior increase in hertzian frequency 'standing waves' on your planet.
We tell you that piezoelectric gems as well as the opal are extremely helpful in the Saturnian and lunar shifts molding the energy of the Ascending Earth.
Closing
It is a prolific time, and shadows are being removed. Energies are bombarding the planet, and doing so in an intelligent and divine benevolence.
The tremendous energies now bathing the earth, the grid and humanity are myriad. It is coronal mass ejections, gamma energy and a harmonic showering from the planets, moons and stars, from sources that are unimaginable to your scientists. Saturn plays a key role, as does your moon.
It is quantum, it is hyper and multi dimensional. It is divine intelligence.
I am Metatron and I share with you these Truths. You are Beloved.

...And so it is...and it is so...

Message From Saul
from John Smallman
Upheavals are essential
Many of you are feeling quite depressed as time passes and you get no personal sense of progress on your individual paths to awakening. In fact, everything seems to have come to a grinding halt. It has not; it just seems like that. Very many of you are on Earth to be energy conduits to assist humanity and the planet in the awakening process. Being an energy conduit is very hard on your human bodies and some of you are experiencing this as extreme tiredness. You are not alone in this, but it may well be that you have no one with whom you can talk about it, and maybe you wonder if you are not, perhaps, going a little crazy as the world around you seems to be going on as normal – crises everywhere! And everyone is operating as though nothing untoward is happening!
Behind the scenes an enormous amount of progress has been made, while the western mainstream media continue to focus on the economic troubles, the political shenanigans, and the unusual weather that many areas are experiencing. So you are getting a sense that something is up, but you want more — preferably dramatic evidence that the necessary and essential changes for your awakening are happening. Rest assured, they most certainly are, and the physical evidence is beginning to show.
Your expectations have been raised; the Golden Age is supposedly almost upon you, and yet. . . . It is difficult for you to maintain a positive attitude as you experience this sense of uncertainty, but if you will turn inwards and ask for help, you will find some peace and a reduction in your stress levels. The big push is on, and as a result the divine energy flow enveloping the planet is very intense, and all you energy conduits are in flood, hence your tiredness. You are doing great work for which you are highly honored. So hang in there — all is divinely taken care of.
A flood of divine energy is of course totally cleansing, and the cleansing that is going on is the cleansing of all the negative attitudes and behaviors with which humanity has been engaging so enthusiastically for so many eons. Those of you who can sense or see energy can indeed become aware of the cleansing. Focus on it, and observe how effective it is. You will be able to see the shining auras of those who have released all or most of their unloving baggage as they move forwards towards their awakening, demonstrating to all around them the immense power of that divine energy flow, and encouraging all to engage with it.
This is indeed a time of great change, great upheaval. Changes that humanity has needed to make, has been implored to make, and has avoided making are now occurring anyway, because they can no longer be delayed. These upheavals are essential, and are an extremely positive sign that you are moving forwards towards your divine and heavenly destiny.
Your human condition is quite strange, in that you often know that something needs to be addressed, taken care of, resolved, and you spend much time discussing possible ways to deal with the situation, and then another situation occurs. You then move on to discuss the new one, leaving the previous one forgotten, or at least put on the back burner. And so issues mount with no sign of resolution. Tempers become frayed, and the blame game starts. Strange indeed! But now, with all the spiritual assistance flooding the planet, that is changing.
It is amazing how quickly ingrained and unloving attitudes are being released all across the world. Humanity has been gripped by a sense of urgency, an increasing awareness that attitudes and behaviors must alter drastically or human existence will become unsupportable on Planet Earth. This awareness is growing rapidly, and quite soon even your politicians will start to become aware, as their constituents demand change more and more vociferously. All is moving forward very satisfactorily as this awareness of the oneness of humanity – for one to live well, all must live well – spreads and spreads. The divine outcome, which was assured at the moment of separation, is coming to fruition beautifully and perfectly, just as divinely intended.
With so very much love, Saul.

July 4, 2012, is Independence Day in the United States of America. On that special day, Americans will celebrate all of the things that our Founding Fathers intended for this country: freedom, liberty, equality, prosperity, the ability to worship as we choose, and the pursuit of happiness. We will celebrate the fact that our Founding Fathers arranged for this to be a country of laws that would honor the rights of every person and perpetuate the highest good for all concerned. These noble men decreed that America would be a government OF the people, BY the people, FOR the people, a government that would ultimately enhance life for every person abiding in this wonderful land.

Needless to say, as a government and as a people we have often fallen far from those lofty goals, but that does not change the fact that these are the archetypes on which this country was founded, or that you and I are cocreating our reality day by day through our thoughts, words, feelings, actions, and beliefs.

So let's take advantage of the opportunity being presented on July 4, 2012. As millions of Americans focus on everything our Founding Fathers intended for us to experience, let's join together and expand the collective cup of our consciousness to envelop all of the governments of the world. Let's invoke the Company of Heaven to amplify our efforts a thousand times a thousandfold. Together we will heal Humanity's past abuse of power and we will pave the way for a higher order of Divine Government. A government OF Humanity's I AM Presence, BY Humanity's I AM Presence, FOR Humanity's I AM Presence.

Remember, as we invoke the Light of God for this activity of Light our unified efforts are being amplified a thousand times a thousandfold by the Company of Heaven.

These invocations are stated in the first person so we will each experience them personally, but we are simultaneously invoking this Light on behalf of every government and every person on Earth.

DIVINE GOVERNMENT INVOCATIONS

I AM breathing in and out deeply and rhythmically. I absorb every Holy Breath into my Heart Flame. With every inbreath, I AM cleansing the cells, molecules, atoms, and electrons of my physical, etheric, mental, and emotional bodies. With every outbreath, I AM expanding the Breath of the Holy Spirit into the physical plane of Earth to bless all Life. As I continue to focus my attention on my inbreath and outbreath, I AM lifted into the full embrace of my mighty I AM Presence.

Within this higher level of Divine Consciousness, I know I AM One with the Divine Heart and Mind of God, I AM One with the entire Company of Heaven, and I AM One with the I AM Presence of every man, woman, and child on Earth. Now, as One voice, One breath, One consciousness of pure Divine Love I affirm:

I AM a Beloved Child of God and ALL that my Father-Mother God have is mine. I AM a surrogate serving on behalf of ALL Humanity and all of the governments of the world.

I dedicate this activity of Light to the manifestation of Divine Government—a government OF Humanity's I AM Presence, BY Humanity's I AM Presence, FOR Humanity's I AM Presence.

Now, through the Presence of God I AM, I ask for a special Cosmic Dispensation. Beloved Father-Mother God and the Legions of Light throughout Infinity envelop Washington, DC, the United States of America, and every country on Earth in the embrace of our Father-Mother God’s Divine Wisdom, Transfiguring Divine Love, Divine Will, Purity, and Illumination until Divine Government and all of the infinite patterns of perfection associated with Divine Government are firmly established in every country of the world.

I make this invocation, this command, and this decree through the Power of God I AM. And So It Is.

In the Name of the Almighty Presence of God I AM and through the Immortal Victorious Threefold Flame pulsating in every heart...

I invoke the Goddess of Liberty, the Goddess of Justice, the Goddess of Freedom, the Goddess of Victory, the Silent Watcher over Washington, DC, Beloved Columbia, and all of the Mighty Guardians, Galactic and Cosmic Beings who dwell in the Etheric Complex over Washington, DC.

Blessed Ones, come forth now, and assist me with the most powerful cleansing activity Humanity and the Earth are capable of receiving during this Cosmic Moment. As One unified heart with all Humanity, I now invoke the 5th-Dimensional Solar Violet Flame of God's Infinite Perfection, the perfect balance of my Father God's Blue Flame of Power and my Mother God's Pink Flame of Divine Love.

Blaze, blaze, blaze this Solar Violet Fire in, through, and around all inharmonious actions, all lower human consciousness, and all obstructions of the Light, that I or any part of Life have ever placed in the pathway of Life’s perfection. Transmute this discordant energy cause, core, effect, record, and memory NOW and FOREVER.

BLAZE and SUSTAIN this 5th-Dimensional Solar Violet Flame with the power and might of a thousand Suns in, through and around:

The President of the United States of America and his cabinet—today and forever.

The Senate and the House of Representatives for the United States of America—today and forever.

The Supreme Court, ALL Courts of Law, and ALL legal procedures—today and forever.

The United Nations and ALL of its members—today and forever.

Through ALL world leaders and those associated with the governments of Earth at national, state, and local levels—today and forever.

God’s Will for the United States of America and all of the governments of the world SHALL MANIFEST. The Divine Plan will be fulfilled and Divine Government will be the order of the new Cosmic Day on Earth. I so decree it and accept it done. Beloved I AM.

THE DECREE FOR THE EARTH AND HER NATIONS

In the Full Power and Authority of the Beloved Presence of God I AM, we, the Children of Earth, humbly come to the Heart of our Father-Mother God to invoke into the physical plane of Earth the most intensified activity of God’s Will ever manifested in the history of time.

We invoke the Legions of Light serving this blessed Earth to absorb this Divine Essence into every fiber of their Beings and to project it into the Heart Flame and conscious mind of every person associated with the governments of this planet at every level.

Blaze the Cosmic Flame of God’s Will through each of these souls, and clear away any destructive activity of their own free will, which might rush in to impede their conscious desire to do God’s Will.

Help them to remain obedient to the Law of Harmony and to BE God in action at ALL times.

Seal all governmental positions, individually and collectively, in the radiance of God’s Will.

Reveal through Illumination’s Flame the Divine Purpose and Plan for each office and each individual, and give to each person the Spiritual Courage and Desire to fulfill that plan perfectly.

Let the Will of God be MANIFEST in, through, and around all the governments of the world NOW and FOREVER! Let the LIGHT OF GOD THAT IS ALWAYS VICTORIOUS Illumine and lead ALL Humanity everywhere!

I consciously ACCEPT this MANIFESTING NOW...even as I call.

And So It Is, Beloved I AM.

The Kabbalists reveal that this sequence of Hebrew letters encompasses the actual power of creation. The Ana B'Koach is built from 42 letters and is also known as the 42 Letter Name of God. Whenever we make a connection the 42 Letter Name, we are tapping into the primordial force of creation."

"Ana BeKoach (Ana BeCoach or Ana B'Koach) prayer was written in the first century by a great kabalistic Rabbi - Rabbi Nehonia. It is said daily at least 3 times, often more, if it's Shabbat or Yontif. [Holy Day.]"

*There is also a solo voice version at the end of this video courtesy of kabbalahgroup.org


The 42 Letter Name of God is an ancient word of Power. This Name of God is divided into seven lines.


Each line can be seen as a DNA sequence that represent seven different types of energy. Each line, or sequence, contains six words that provide Divine Energy for helping us to solve the problems of life.

Line 1: This is the most powerful line of the prayer, created to be concentrated upon in time of extreme stress or danger; the DNA sequence of power to provide sustenance in a time of dire need.

Line 2: Grants the user the power to move events and control negative forces.

Line 3: Empowers one with the ability to make the right decision, with the proper balance and compassion.

Line 4: Grants the endurance necessary to follow through and prove victorious.

Line 5: Provides the energy of deep insight, creates a form of clairvoyance that allows the user to see into the future.

Line 6: Gives the ability to find peace and inner strength.

Line 7: Grants the power of renewal which allows one to start over again.

What to Do in Life

Heavenletter #4237

What to Do in Life ,

July 1, 2012

God said:

Be of good cheer is My main message for you today. Such a simple thing, it hardly seems necessary to mention. Why wouldn't someone be of good cheer on a sunny day like this - or a rainy day like this? Grumpiness arises regardless of the weather. The weather is not responsible for your frame of mind. You are.

Grumpy days will descend uninvited. When they descend, let go of them. Instead of being grumpy, why not enjoy yourself? Even grumpiness doesn't have to deter you from good cheer.

Look, if you slip and fall in the mud, what is there to do but laugh at yourself? Maybe you slipped in the mud so you would laugh at yourself.

Notice I said to laugh at yourself. I did not say to laugh at anyone else. A good sport does not laugh at someone else, only himself, unless, of course, the other person is laughing, and then you can join in.

What else is there to do in life but develop a sense of humor? What else in there to do in life but enjoy it?

If you want joy in life, take on the intent to enjoy it. This does not mean to be false. This means to say: "Okay, I fell down in the mud. Shall I stay down in it? Shall I spend my whole day groveling in the mud, even after I've climbed out of it? I will have to wash my muddied clothes as soon as I get home, yet I can clear my mind right now on the spot. I'm not going to let a little mud accumulate in my mind and spoil my day. No sirree."

And if you don't slip in the mud today, and you find that your boss is displeased, do you have to be displeased too? Does someone else's surliness have to sully your mind? Perhaps you have thought it must. Perhaps you have thought that you have to copy someone else's bad mood. Perhaps you have thought your mood has to match someone else's.

Be of good cheer. Be serious in response to everyone. In response to yourself, move on. If your boss or your wife or anyone is displeased with you, be courteous and carry on. They will get over it by and by. As for yourself, get over it now.

The key word today is now.

You have gotten over much worse. If you're going to get over something sooner or later, get over it sooner. There is no good reason to ruin your day. There is every good reason to have a good day.

We are talking common sense.

When you are in a slump, your mind has suggested that you must be in a slump because your mind says that B must follow A. Change your mind then. Change it now.

You are under no obligation to stay in what is called a bad mood. Moods are temporary things. Moods are going to change anyway. If your mood is dark, change it now. You are not to be at the mercy of your moods. Moods are not the master over you. You owe no loyalty to your moods. You don't have to honor them. You don't have to keep them. Let them go. Step out of one mood into another. Unless you favor dark moods, step out of them.

You can change your sweater. You can change anything. Maintain light moods. Abandon yucky moods. Make light of yourself. Respect others' moods, but not your moods unless your moods are already of good cheer.

Filled by a Daughter's Love


Filled by a Daughter's Love
posted by RiahWillow on Jan 9, 2010

While getting ready for school today, my 16-year-old daughter made a point of coming into my room to give me a big hug and kiss.

When I asked her the proverbial question, "What do you want?" she replied, "Nothing momma. You always tell us to have a good day before we leave the house, but I was thinking about who tells you to have a good day and lets you know how much you are loved."

I am so touched by the capacity of love and understanding that comes from my children. My 15-year-old son asked me last night if there was a way for him to get a summer job this year in order to help us pay our bills. Unfortunately, in our area, he must be 16. When telling him "no," he said that was ok because he had a lawn mower and as long as the grass grows, he could help out.

Both of my children depend on me so much because I am a single parent, but just when I think I will not be able to provide for them they come up with ways to help out. I completely understand that I will still have to find a way to pay the bills as I do not want my children taking up the slack. They are children, and have enough to do with school and marching band, and the volunteer work they do with the homeless. But for now the fact that they have stepped up and offered to help without anyone asking touches me.

When my daughter was 2 years old, I remember rushing to get to work, and when I was at the front door, fussing at her to hurry up and come to the door. When she appeared at the door she had a bag that she was holding open. I said, "We don't have time for this." She stopped me and said, "Fill it with love momma." I fell to my knees and hugged her and then kissed her and said "Thank you". From that moment forward she would bring the bag and I would bring the love to the door before we left for school and work.

Today she brought me the love.

Just Decide, Friend

Just Decide, Friend
posted by rashu on Nov 30, 2010

I was waiting to pick up a friend at the airport when I had one of those life changing experiences, the kind that you sometimes hear other people talk about, the kind that sneaks up on you unexpectedly. This one occurred a mere two feet away from me.

As I was straining to locate my friend amongst the line of passengers exiting the airport, I noticed a man coming towards me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to greet his family.

First he motioned to his youngest son (maybe 6 years old) as he laid down his bags. He crouched down and they gave each other a long, loving hug. As they seperated enough to look in each other's face, I heard the father say, "Its too good to see you, son I missed you so much!" His son smiled somewhat shyly, averted his eyes and replied softly,"Me too dad!"

Then the man stood up and gazed in the eyes of his oldest son (maybe 9 or 10 years old) and while cupping his son's face in his hands said," You are already quite the young man. I love you very much." They too shared a very loving and tender hug.

While this was happining a baby girl was squirming excitedly in her mother's arms, never once taking her little eyes off the wonderful sight of her returning father. The man said "Hi, baby girl!" as he gently took the child from her mother. He kissed her face all over and then held her close to her chest while rocking her from side to side. The little girl instantly relaxed and simply laid her head on his shoulder, motionless in pure contentment.

After several moments, he handed his daughter to his eldest son and declared, "I have saved the best until last!" and proceeded to give his wife, the most loving kiss I ever remember seeing.

He gazed into her eyes for several seconds and then silently mouthed "I love you so much." They started looking into each others eyes, beaming big smiles at one another, while holding both hands. For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds, but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn't possibly be.

I puzzled about it for a moment then realized how totally engrossed I was in this wonderful display of unconditional love not more than an arm's length away from me. I suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if I was invading something sacred, but was amazed to hear my own voice nervously ask, "Wow! How long have you two been married?" "We've been together 14 years in total and married for 12 of those." he replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wife's face."Well then how long have you been away?" I asked. The man finally turned and looked at me, still beaming his smile,"Two whole days".

Two days?! I was stunned by the intensity of greeting, I had assumed he had been gone for at least several weeks - If not months. I know my expression betrayed me, I said almost offhandedly, hoping to end my intrusion with some semblance of grace, "I hope my marriage is still that passionate after 12 years!"

The man suddenly stoped smiling and looked straight into my eyes and with forcefulness that burned right into my soul, he said something that just left me a different person. He said, "Don't hope,friend, just decide!" Then he flashed me his wonderful smile again, shook my hand and said "God Bless!" With that he and his family turned and strode away together.

I was still watching that exceptional man and his special family walking away when my friend came up to me and asked," What are you looking at?" Without hestiating, and a with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, "My future!" "I wish I could be such a wondeful wife of such wonderful man."

A Circle of Kindness Started by a 10 Year Old Girl
posted by oneluckylady on Jul 22, 2010

I was shopping at my local supermarket., as I normaly have for years. One particular day, I had done about 2 weeks worth of shopping and was headed toward the register to pay for my groceries. After the cashier had scanned my items and I had bagged them up, she stated that the total was $150.

I reached into my back right pocket to grab the money to pay and noticed that there was no money in there. I started to get nervous. I knew my pocket book was in the car and I was sure I had put the money in my back right pocket. I look at cashier with wet eyes and a confused look not knowing what to do. There were people behind me on the line. She told me to speak with the courtesy counter.

I laughed and said, "Really? It's cash, no one would hand that in!"

I said I would be right back and ran to my truck to get out more money to pay my bill, money that was to be used to pay another bill. I ran back inside and handed money to the cashier. She again prompted me to ask the courtesy desk, "You never know..." she said. I laugh and said "okay".

I decided that there was no harm in checking so I walked up to a women behind the counter and said "I have to ask, did anyone turn in cash by any chance?". She asked "How much?". My face then lit up. "$200 in the form of one hundred dollar bills." I replied. She said, "Actually, yes, someone did!".

I was so surprised! "Who? I want to thank them." She points to a young girl about 10 years old and says, "She did."

I walked over to the mom and hugged her. She said, "It wasn't me, it was my daugther". I said "I know, I wanted thank you both, although she found it ... it's becuase of you that I got this back." I was so happy, I was almost in tears.

The next day at work, a person in another department offered me ticeks to the circus. He handed me 5 tickets. Almost instantly that young girls face popped in my head. After work I went back to the supermarket and stopped at the courtesy counter and asked if they had any idea who that women was? She smiled and said, "Yes, actually I do. She is a friend of mine". Oh good, I was so happy. I asked her to do me a favor and pass along these 5 tickets to her and say thank you from me.

She told me that the family of the little girl who found my money don't have very much so they would really appreciate this. She also said that they have 3 children, so five was the prefect number of tickets! "Wow," I thought.

At first, I had I felt a little wierd bringing those tickets to the store but I am SO glad I did!
Lesson: Never think twice about doing someting nice for someone.

A Shoe Seller Walks in the Shoes of Kindness
posted by febrihana on Nov 13, 2010

Today, I felt terrible. My head was full of problems and confusion. I decided to take a walk even though I didn't know where I would go. The most extraordinary thing happened when I was out on this walk.

 

I saw an old man sitting on a chair. He was a seller of second-hand shoes. I thought he looked at least 70 years old. He seemed so tired and nobody was buying his shoes. I wanted to give him something but I had not brought anything with me.

 

Then, a little girl came toward him. I heard the child say, "Grandfather, may I polish your shoes?" That old man took pity on her, smiled and he gave her a shoe to polish.

 

The girl said, "I polish the shoe because I need money to buy my brother a new school uniform."
I heard this and tears came to my eyes. The old man answered, "Oh, little girl. Just stop doing this. Come with me and I will buy you a uniform." Then they walked to a market (I followed behind) and he bought her a uniform.

 

The girl was so happy. She said, "Thank you so much for doing this. May God bless you." Then she left, leaving the old man smiling.

 

He walked away from the market, but I stopped him. I whispered in his ear, "You are a hero! Thank you for your kindness!" As I walked away, I glanced back and I could see him still smiling.

 

I was blown away by the kindness I had just seen. Someone who had so little themselves, was able to show such incredible generosity! Amazing! My own sadness had completely disappeared, chased way by the light of this kind act.

 

I began realizing that I have a lot to be thankful for. I hope, some day, I can show my appreciation of what I have by following the example of the old man who only had a little, but shared it so beautifully with someone who had nothing.

The Doc who has charged $5/visit for over 55 years

by Bob Dotson, Original Story, May 11, 2012

 

Charging the price of a fancy cup of coffee, Dr. Russell Dohner has cared for Rushville, an Illinois town of 4,300 people, for more than half a century, delivering 3,500 babies, and never taking a vacation — or even an entire day off.

 

Rushville, Ill., is the kind of place where backyards have gardens instead of grass, and sunflowers wave in the wind. A tiny town, just 4,300 people, named for a doctor and settled by the men who marched back from the War of 1812. Rushville was built on government land, halfway between St. Louis and Chicago, as a gift to veterans. Those who did not come back got a statue on the courthouse square and were called heroes. “In a mercenary world,” a waiting patient told me, “this place is an oasis.”

 

But there is another sort of hero in Rushville today — one the town treasures, and can also touch. Dr. Russell Dohner has been looking after his neighbors for 55 years, charging them about what we pay for a fancy cup of coffee: five bucks a visit.

 

 

Making a difference

Doc Dohner doesn’t believe in tossing things away, and that keeps costs down. The only thing modern in his office is medicine.

Most of his nurses have been with him nearly as long as his furniture. They’re paid well because Doc works around the clock. He will go anywhere, at any time, to help those in need, often arriving before emergency crews. He once saved a small boy from smothering to death in a corncrib, once climbed down into a coal mine to help rescue four men.

Dohner broke his own back a few years ago and has had a heart attack — the only times he’s ever closed his clinic. He took time off until patients started coming to his house seeking medical care.
He does have help. Doc brought half the Rushville hospital staff into the world, including the woman who runs the place, Lynn Stambaugh. She used to wash dishes at the hospital. Dohner inspired her to go to nursing school.

I asked her why Doc never burned out.

"Well, I think because every day he makes a difference to at least one person, and if you can do that, you can go on.”

The morning we first met, back in 1983, Dohner had been to surgery twice, prepped a broken arm, handled two emergency cases, checked on 50 patients and delivered three babies. It was not yet 10:30.

 

 

No days off

He has only one hobby: trees. He’s donated 10,000 of them to this prairie town. Now and then he does slip away to go fishing on a Thursday afternoon, but he’s usually in his tie, and always near a phone.

He has not, in 55 years, had a vacation, not even a full day off. What would he do, if he did take a day off?

“I would like to go to Missouri,” Doc says.

Missouri is only 58 miles west of Rushville.

“Yes, but I have to take care of my patients first.”

The last time Doc left Illinois was during World War II. He was a military policeman in the Army, guarding President Harry Truman. “I was close enough to touch him,” Doc smiles, “but he wouldn’t have liked that.”

Dr. Dohner was born 85 years ago on a nearby farm, one of seven children. He worked to pay his own way through Northwestern University medical school.

He had his heart set on being a big-city cardiologist, but decided, “Rushville needed a doctor, so I stayed. It’s the way it’s got to be, if I take care of what comes.”

Russell Dohner has won dozens of awards for the quality of his practice and was runner-up for Country Doctor of the Year. Every morning before the sun peeks over the water tower, dozens of people are crammed into his waiting room.

He takes no appointments. Those who are seriously ill use the back door to get immediate attention; others sit for an hour or more to visit a doctor who knows more about them than some of their families do.

The first baby he delivered now drives her granddaughter 30 miles for an office visit. “When your little girl gets carried to surgery by the doctor instead of one of the nurses, she will learn to trust him, too,” she said.

Doc has no children of his own — unless you count the 3,500 babies he’s delivered. That’s more than the population of Rushville.

Meditating With Dinosaurs...Really?

Meditating With Dinosaurs...Really?
by Karen Horneffer Ginter, Original Story, May 31, 2012

When I first encountered Pascal's words, I felt like they were telling me, in a poetic way, to sit down and shut up, and that just felt, well... sort of rude. It also felt a bit insulting, in suggesting that for myself or for others, we bring a chunk of our suffering onto ourselves because we're too cowardly to sit quietly and face our thoughts and our feelings. Over time, however, the quote grew on me. I began to see its truth based on my own experience and from many years of listening to clients describe the pain that comes from not feeling connected to themselves.

Finding time to sit quietly in a room is no easy task for any of us. I know for myself, even before having kids, it was hard to find time for such non-activity. Life never seemed to lack things to do and so it never felt like a good idea to just sit in a room and do nothing for even a brief amount of time. Somehow, though, I found ways to carve out time for contemplative practices such as meditation, prayer, and yoga -- sensing and then experiencing their value.

During my decade of parenthood, I've sometimes felt like a character from a cartoon strip, especially when I find myself hushing those around me in my attempts to achieve a calm inner-state. I've come to laugh at myself in these moments, realizing how far I must be from achieving this desired state if I'm needing to quiet those around me in order to feel its precarious presence. I can still recall my first attempts at resurrecting a meditation practice after having children. I realized, even then, that I'd need to become less rigid in my ways -- that instead of waiting until I could find some Zen-like conditions of purity and simplicity, I'd be better off just plopping my bottom down in the middle of whatever room I was in, when any sort of brief opportunity arouse. It was clear to me that such moments were likely to be my only chance to still my thoughts and turn my attention within.

One afternoon, as I opened my eyes, I realized that I was encircled by a gathering of plastic dinosaurs, along with tiny action figures and a scattering of legos in various shapes and colors. I sighed, realizing that this was the new backdrop of my life, and that if I wanted to keep my spirituality alive, such efforts would need to occur right in the midst of this clutter and chaos. I also realized that if I was going to pursue any sort of quieting practice without losing my sanity or pushing away my family members with a constant chorus of "Shhhhh," I was going to need to see the derailment of my spiritual practice as being a part of my spiritual practice. Years later, I came to see the gift in this -- recognizing that my children had actually taught me more about flexibility than I had ever learned on my yoga mat.

Regardless of whether we have children or not, flexibility becomes an essential ingredient when our lives are busy. In part, it's essential because our busyness leaves us at higher risk for interruptions, and we must find some way to work with these inconveniences so that we don't give up entirely on our hopes of staying connected to ourselves. If Pascal's words carry any truth, then we busy people are probably the ones most likely to create just the sorts of problems that can arise from losing touch with ourselves. We're more prone to feel the confusion that comes from moving so quickly that we don't notice our gut sense of right and wrong, or our intuition about what needs to happen next.

Even if we only have a minute or two -- only time to take in three or four conscious breaths and listen within for a brief moment -- it's worth experimenting with how this can make a difference in the quality of our day. Try doing this while sitting in your chair, or if you feel so moved, push aside some of the kids' toys, the dog's bones, or the pile of laundry -- and sit down on the floor right in front of you. Experiment with Pascal's message for yourself.

 

Be The Change
Take a moment to be still and quiet amidst "the dinosaurs" in your own day.
