The Life of Lela

To turn the other way, I had to see past the veil of responsibility and obligation. I had to declare a self-inspired holiday, a release from monetary servitude and body burning exertions. So the moment came, and I turned the other way, headed for the deep jungle and adventure. I tried not to set plans, but threw myself to the winds of faith. Within 10 minutes, the shift occured. Along the side of the road stood a solitary figure, swathed in a brown scarf and lugging an enormous pack which indicated an accomplished world traveller. So I pulled over and invited him into my world. He said he was headed for the other side of the island, and had just landed here the day before. I began to go through some ideas for him to fnd work and shelter, and within a few miles, a strategy was forming. When he mentioned that he was a teacher of tantric yoga, I immediately flashed that he needed to meet the bunch in Huelo, and began to explain the community there to him, including the fact that Baba Ram dass was a current resident. That definitely hit his buttons, and we started discussing alternatives to a drive around the island. We stopped by the Garden of Eden to check on employment opportunities, and they directed us back to the smoothie stand we had passed in Huelo. So we turned around and started back, and the conversation deepened as he explained his work creating group consciousness. This information was like a drink of cool water to my soul. Just what I needed to hear from just the right person under just the right circumstances at just the right time. It's so wonderful when things crystalize for that moment of illumination, and how you can experience such a revelation and still continue to automatically drive down the road, respond to traffic and keep an eye out for landmarks! What amazing creatures we are. So, by turning the other way, I found a new door into the future. By the way, it was perfectly fine with my jilted employer, we just made arrangements for another day...and I am so grateful that I gave myself that day to find a new friend and window into the next step into the future. Gracias, Lela

Mood: In Limbo
Listening to: bird talk

Crystal clear morning, yet my thoughts feel a bit muddled and scattered. Feel like I'm standing on the shore with my toes in the surf deciding whether to wade in or not. Part of me feels too tired to deal with the inevitable consequences, the thrills of riding the waves juxaposes too easily with the aftermath of 'velocity burns' and the required time to rejuvenate. Wouldn't it just be 'easier not to' for once, stay in the quiet tidal pool region and watch the events instead of diving in headfirst.

Quite a crossroads to consider. To challenge or accept, is this the issue, or is it a bizzare attempt to avoid the inevitable bruising that comes from tangling with nature. I chose in each moment which direction I will take, whether to stand firm or flee, and I imagine it will be fascinating to discover which I will do next. I'm always the last one to know, it seems!

The Disclosure Project

A new day dawns, and with it a new opportunity. Something set in motion in the midst of chaos has arisen and has injected a sense of coming out of the darkness into the incandescant dawn. It's not light yet, but it seems to be brightening up!

My mental journeys today have lead me around our planet, our solar system and our collective consciousness. The growing, pulsating energy that I perceive as enveloping our lives seems more viable than ever.

I listened to Dr. Greer of The Disclosure Project on a recorded radio program today and was once again reminded that our introduction into the galactic neighborhood is just around the corner. That is, for all of us, not just the select few who have so far been controlling this information. Exposure to this type of data renews my faith that we can unite once given the necessary strength to stand up against the forces which have held us down for so long. Our resiliency will become obvious once we are released from the crushing illusions which have bound our energy to useless tasks and empty promises.

Yes, a new day has dawned, let it be the beginning of the beginning!

Mood: Seeking Order from Chaos
Listening to: Myself

The cascade of recent events in my life has made me take a good long look at the forces that sweep through our lives and restructure our realities. For each action there is a reaction, and it seems that for each high there is always a low.

I have tried to inprint my mental software with the big overall picture of our universe as a great electrical creature that is thereby benign of judgement or punishment, but it merely involved in a dance of balancing the positive and negative aspects of creation. This huge spiralling pattern has great chaotic moments as energy fields untangle and reposition themselves to equilibrium.

This process, unfortunately for us on a low vibratory level, often creates havoc in our personal realities and unleashes a string of 'bad luck' scenarios where it seems only negative processes are being activated. This creates a snowball effect until a point is reached whereby all effort seems useless and all previous avenues of access are closed.

Of course, it is at this exact point that we must get up and dust ourselves off and recommit to making life worth living again. As my friend told me when I rattled off the list of things that had gone wrong in my life over the past two weeks: "Great, now your done with all that and can do anything you want."

Which is, of course, the outlook one should take when trying to determine why everything seems to go wrong at once. If I have learned any one thing through these years of defeats and glories, it is that we can always start again, there is no finite amount of ways to live in our world. It's just a matter of redefining our programming and daring to take a leap into the unknown.

So, off I go to do exactly that. I felt it appropriate that I alert the internet, since it has been my panacea through this process. I am grateful for the wisdom which has flowed to me through this medium, and anxious to work withing it's context to catalog my newest journey within the matrix.
