Summer is back! We had the bedroom window open all night. I don't know what the low temperature was, probably around 60F. Wednesday Morning it was 47F when I got up. Yes, it has been a little chilly at night for August. It got warm again yesterday and we were able to sit on the porch in the evening. There was a wonderful serenade of crickets and tree frogs.
We often have a little warning, of Fall coming, and Summer's end, in late August. It felt ominous of an early Autumn, but that feeling is gone now, hopefully it will be a long slow autumnal season.
Jamie got several quarts of beans canned this week and I made seven quarts of pickles. We have lots more beans and cucumbers left to harvest. The garden got away from us this year. It is overgrown with both weeds and a harvestable crop.
It feels like a long time since I have blogged. A lot happened. I am not prepared to comment on the ups and downs of the stock market, except to say, it is likely to continue until................. well we will see.
In the short term we are likely to be in for some rocky times. The media is going to throw up all the grief and strife in the world and rub our nose in it. We need to look away and towards the light. Minds are changing. Love is growing. There is a great temptation to ogle and examine the rotting corpse of our dying culture, but it doesn't help much; once we are, indeed, convinced that it is dying. Likewise, it is not particularly useful to examine and unravel the shenanigans of the dark ones. They have one goal in mind, and that is, to keep the people poor, ignorant and under control. We see that. Ignore them. If we are not afraid of them, they can do nothing.
We have experimented, with almost every way we can live, on this planet. I am not a historian or an archaeologist, but I can conjecture that we have had our "Golden Ages" where we have achieved something close to happiness for the majority. These last few centuries have been an abysmal experiment in the 'dog eat dog' consciousness. I don't know that we could be much crazier. We have taken separateness to the nth degree.
At the same time, we have been indulging ourselves in a spree of separation, wise ones and masters, have been reminding us, that we are 'one' and only love will create the world we want.
We don't need to wait any longer. We don't need to wait for a savior. Our savior is ourselves. We save ourselves by making the intent to love in all circumstances. Each one of us can decide, that today is the day, that we love everyone and everything. All of our decisions will be based on love.
We have been trapped in this illusion, created by fear, long enough. We don't need to reinforce it further. Ignore all invitations to fear. We can select entertainments that are uplifting. We can focus, only, on the love we see around us. When we make the intent to focus only on love, we will see it all around us, where before we saw bleakness.
We are creators. We created the illusion of fear and we can, now, step out of it. It is a very convincing illusion and that is why we stuck with it so long. After all, we are part of Source, and we have free will, and the ability to create anything we want. We have worn out the idea of separateness.
Source is Love. We are Love. Separateness is anti-love. We created against our true selves. Creating with love will be like sliding down hill. It will be expressing our true nature.
Everyone is equal. Everyone is equally powerful. A smile at a stranger, in the grocery store, may have more power towards bringing peace on Earth than a high level international agreement.
None of us can judge our own impact or the impact of others on the world. We can decide, our impact, will be loving.
To change the world, we need only to pay attention to our own selves and the world we are creating around us. Get to know the love we are. Let the love, we are, shine on all around us. We will see how we can be of service.
Happy Friday!
Love and Peace, Gregg
