“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds.” ~ Bob Marley

This is such an important thing to remember, especially when there is so much negative shit going on in the world. Because there will ALWAYS be dark vibes and bad energy – you just have to be strong enough to block it from affecting you. It is a choice.

Mental slavery is no good for anyone. And I see it everyday in people’s behavior and how they treat others. It seems some are so miserable and lost that they complain every minute to the world like that will change anything. It won’t. It hasn’t. And it never will. And honestly, no one wants to hear it.

Social media these days is a garbage dump for whining, threats, name calling, fighting, and constant repeating of the same old crap we have all been hearing for the past 2 years. This is a negative way of communicating and it just divides us all. And this country certainly doesn’t need that. But if we all just raise our frequency a bit and shift our perspective, it’s possible to move forward TOGETHER.

You have the power to create the life you want and no one can tell you how to live it. Free your mind of the darkness that consumes it and rise above the low vibes you might be spreading to others. It’s just not doing any good for you or them. Be positive, spread kindness, open your mind a bit and try to see the beauty that is truly surrounding you.

Peace doesn’t come from everyone thinking like you. It comes from accepting others even if they are different and learning to live as a united species. If we all could just elevate ourselves above the drama, chaos, lies and dark energy that lurks in society and turn our heads to the biased media and people in power who don’t give a shit about us THEN one by one we can rise up and overcome. That’s how you evolve for change.

Coexisting

I spotted this big guy this afternoon before we headed out to my in laws, he was just hanging around. We got back a few hours later and I went out to water and he was still there. Except this time he was at the top and seemed to be in distress, as if he was stuck and couldn’t get down. Now I’m no bug expert but it really did seem as if he was in need of some help. I watched him for a bit while I watered to see if maybe he would fly away or walk down, something. But he didn’t. He just kept going in nervous circles at the top. I felt really bad and wanted to help. So I gave him a hand by holding one of my bamboo sticks (I use these as stakes) out by him so he could get on. He gladly did and started to walk along the stick towards me. I put it on the ground and he boot scooted away on the grass.

I know this may not seem like a big deal but it made me happy to help this beetle. I’ve never been one to like bugs, they are actually one of the very few things I’m kind of afraid of. But lately, especially since we have started our garden, I’ve gotten used to these little guys being around me more. The beetles, the slugs, the snails, the bees, the spiders, the butterflies, the praying mantis and all the strange looking bugs that live and visit our property daily… they are all special and important in their own way. I appreciate them all, even if some want to eat our veggies. Lol. I’m here to help them thrive as much as I can and give them a place to be free. And the fact that I’m getting more comfortable coexisting with them just proves that when you allow nature to be an integral part of your life and surround yourself with its beauty, magical things happen. Change happens. Evolution happens. You truly see how we are all connected, no matter how tiny something might be. And there is a huge lesson to be learned in that. I am so grateful for what the Earth teaches me. I am just so fucking grateful.

Be the Light

We all need a little isolation from time to time. It’s good for the soul to go inward and give yourself the space to just be. Now is a good time to do just that. This current situation is bringing a lot of issues to light. And it’s certainly a time to be aware. I believe there is much more to this virus and although it’s hard for some, we must not let it drag us down. We all need to be strong, brave and resilient to come out on top. And the one thing that will allow each of us to do that is to be fearless. The fear I see people expressing is what I’m most worried about and it’s the one thing that will destroy us all. Don’t let anyone or anything push you to live in fear. Because it will eventually crush you and make the situation much worse, for everyone. I refuse to let fear control me. The only thing I can do is adjust my flow and be positive. As long as I keep moving forward I will be fine. And life does go on. It may feel like the twilight zone right now but underneath it all change is being birthed from the madness. So be strong and focus on the good things in your life. Enjoy your days as best you can. Reach out to nature for support. Stop inviting negativity, lies and sadness in your space. Never mind the stories. It’s enough. Be the light the world needs… and we will get through this just fine ✨
