Heart and Grit

Losing Connection

In These Times

14 Jan

The dawning rays of 2021. Five losses in the same number of days.

Power flickered off, removing light and heat from the physical world. The virtual realm, too, turned to black. Its denizens scurrying into hidey holes as the Internet failed to load.

If I were a betting person, I might say that the odds for 2021 were not looking good :)

What is it about losing connection to the Grid that feels so uniquely unsettling?

Heart beats a little faster, breath shallower.

Before we know it, we’re hopping an express train to Anxietytown. Frantically rebooting dead devices for a refresh of the familiar scenery we depend on to out-picture our world as a friendly place.

Being hooked-up links arm-in-arm with ‘I am safe’.  

But it’s not exactly bombshell news that Breakdown is still blasting holes through our stage sets in 2021. Allowing easy exits for the stampeding hordes of old dysfunctions.

No curtsies, either, on their way out the door.

Our Mother Earth, precariously positioned to look and feel more than a little disoriented and shaky right now. Under siege, as flux and confusion douse petrol onto transformational fires.

Chaos, chairing her board of directors. And serving as trustee to this long-foretold shift in consciousness.

Breakdown, lighting the way for Breakthrough.

We can feel it in our bones — how security promised by the grid is largely symbolic. Yet our animal bodies still crave the soft warmth of comfort. As they always will.

The worn-out and weary old paradigm was never built to embody sufficient Heart to hold us. Or, cradle our spirits. So we’re bound to shiver mightily …

Until we claim connection with our Source of inner power.

The Light and Radiance that we ARE. That we have always been.

Darkness is only the Light remembering itself.

Matt Kahn

Our Light lights us up! Our Radiant heat, stokes divinely-inspired passion. Propelling collaborative creativity and contribution.

We take our place in the Circle of Life.

Shining our Radiant Light as never before. Co-creators of a loving universe.

♪♪I am Light, I am Light …

My soul inside is all Light

All Light, and Light yeah …

I am divinity defined

I am the God on the inside

I am a star. A piece of it all

I am Light ♪♪

India.Arie

And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were still.  And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently. And the people healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal. And when the danger passed, and people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed.
