The yearning is real, the emptiness once quenched more palpable than ever as our spirit becomes heavier with every inhale of our breath as we watch in astonishment and disbelief at the dismantlement of a patriarchal system which simply had lost its way, where it valued greed and profit over people and the planet as it devolved further into decimation, cruelty and lies in areas once rich in stability and trust.
None of it is wrong. It is learning and its time is up.
The world we see, no longer represents who we are, or does it?
Buried is the enthusiasm of dreams, diminished by false hope and obstructed by doubt and fear of worth. Purpose eludes the once elevated status quo and derangement appears to support a version of someone else’s truth based on fear and not love. Honesty and integrity are blamed as willful hypocrisy and vengeance by some, lauded over by others to control the narrative and is a completely foreign concept to others. It is all a choice and a point of view of conjecture and learning.
We can only be responsible for ourself, not anyone else, not their choices, not their learning, not their actions, not their integrity, not their honesty, nor their purpose, nor their truth, only ours and it’s not always easy to disengage from the maya and drama triangle of humanity as we are triggered by our own sense of what we perceive to be right and wrong, black and white and a lifetime of learnt decency, worthy of a good life, we are simply not accepting universal balance.
It is easy to stand in compassion once we have learnt and experienced the nature of its virtue and hold within us the light of its value and worth, it is harder to confront its lack, yet we must at least be its witness, not saviour.
Do we shout into the void and absence of compassion as a voice of wisdom and empowerment or do we as a voice of disdain, contempt and hated? It is always a choice. Would a different result occur if we took the time to look at our intentions, yes. Where response is calmer, our reactions can be quick, fast, and sometimes brutal. One from fear, the other from love, it is a fine line at times. One we can heal, the other we need to stretch into more of.
The distance between the two can be but a mere millisecond in time yet contains a lifetime of learning up to that point. Hidden agendas, aspects, intentions, and karma always evoke a reaction or response as we plummet in a downward spiral of vibrational and unhealed emotional baggage. An ambush if you will into the inner landscape of self and expectations, met or not. An inner war between love and fear and where love has been extracted and the egoic attachment to life sits, diligently guarding the fear, unwilling to heed to the wisdom, empathy and empowerment of peace, love and calmness in that moment and where compassion is a non-existent and an uninhabitable faraway land. In that environment it cannot exist, it is a vibrational impossibility as the denser energy, and the lower vibrational nature of fear takes over. We can only hope and pray for a reasonable outcome, yet to be determined by time and the universe as we learn to understand our own patterns, triggers and undertake to parent our emotions with nurture as opposed to criticism and judgement.
Where is it that we stand between lands and kingdoms of emotional wealth, prosperity and abundance, hope and hopelessness, patience and impatience, tolerance and justice, intolerance and rage, integrity and lies? Only time, events and experiences will show us the truth and clarity of what has been healed and what needs some inner work still to be done. That is how we will know.
The knowledge of awareness has the power to transform our inner landscape, churning what was once the darkness of fear, criticism, judgement, blame and shame into the empowerment and light of love. It is the beginning of change at the direction of the higher soul as learning kicks into a higher gear for our physical presence here on Earth and where we can transmute past misgivings into love with forgiveness and compassion, but only if we are willing. A conscious choice is one that is needed to be made, and a choice point inserted before reaction, pay attention there is room for a space, just breathe. It is the awakening of the soul, and a conscious journey of coming home to love and the journey from our head to our heart with grace.
We are each being asked to choose our path as humanity splits between the third dimension of duality and fifth dimension and unified field, as the cracks appear and the divide widens.
We all stand on the Earth, yet do we recognise our soul connection? Are we consciously connected? Or simply unaware of its existence and the quiet whispers of our guidance? Have we found the light of truth in our heart? Have we followed our intuition, buried or ignored it? Have we challenged our own mind and consciousness? Have we awoken from our slumber of disconnection or simply ignored and outsourced it out of fear?
The challenge is discernment and hearing the inner guidance pouring in from the higher soul rather than the slightly twisted loud words in our head that distort the true meaning and steer us in another direction and meaning entirely.
Do we value our learning and liberation from outdated thoughts and beliefs? Do we claim sovereignty over our body, mind, and energy field? Or leave the door open for all and sundry to walk in and change our mind to their way of being when we acknowledge inwards it’s a lesser path? Do we break old contracts, promises and vows we have made with ourselves that no longer serve our highest good or just let sleeping dogs lie? Are we even aware they exist?
When we look at others and compare ourselves, we get a glimpse of how far we have come, mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. What we do not need to do is judge as we were once that and sometimes still are in certain circumstances, we just do not always remember what it was and when we learnt what we did. Sometimes we do, most times we do not. On the other side of wisdom and liberation is the looking back upon our own criticism and not liking what we see and that is because we have simply outgrown the old and moved on, leaving us distasteful at what and who we once were. We come from ignorance into experience and leave with understanding, knowledge, and wisdom and finally into liberation. What we do with that is up to us and we will always be tested on it until we pass with flying colours.
The faraway land is the vibrational kingdom of unconditional love, heaven, and our soul. What we have forgotten is simply our connection to it. What is happening is the lifting of the veils which covered humanity from the vibrational reality of the planet which is and has always been unconditional love and where it is we can engage with compassion and love and meet humanity with a higher level of consciousness.
What is rising in us is light, close your eyes to see. Is it a glimmer, star bright or hiding still. Love and light is pushing our negativity to the surface to be let go of. Not all will go with Her as their learning is incomplete and many egos are holding onto old ways, which is why we see the dimensional split within humanity.
We can see the building blocks of the new paradigm, as people begin to build the new infrastructure carrying with it the willingness of compassion, honesty, integrity, inclusion, unity and love for the betterment of all and that is palpable and inspiring as the phoenix rises out of the ashes of desolation, chaos, mayhem and broken systems.
The world is only ever seen from our filters of our inner landscape, choose wisely dear souls, for we are the ones we are waiting for, the ones who will uncover and connect with the light within and join in unity with love, bound by faith and trust, each with our own unique path for salvation and redemption to bring through and anchor the Golden Age of Peace on the planet.
We live in duality, a system designed for our learning, where intention plays a hidden role as the higher soul guides us through our karmic debt, and into places we never thought we would ever travel with accountability. Our akashic records have been written from the time of the birth of our soul and transcribed across lifetimes for our learning and growth, no one is exempt as it keeps watch on our accountability debt and balances our account as our lessons are learnt.
Karma is a universal law, and the universe is always in balance, trust in our faith and have faith in our trust. Give to others with generosity and kindness, choose to forgive ourselves for our misdemeanors and be of service which fills our grace bank account and reduces our karma with understanding and love.
May we let go of all that no longer serves us, and may it be with harmlessness, compassion, forgiveness, and grace for the upliftment of all as we walk each other home into love.
May we be one with peace, one with love, and one with each other.
Om Shanti, Om Namo Narayani.

Hi, Stephanie, Reedsy assigned me to review your short story. There are many beautiful phrases and of course many profound ideas and points of philosophy. I'm just wondering, though, if this is meant to be a short story or more of an essay on life, since there doesn't seem to be a plot. Either way, it's very beautifully written.
