Suicides and Holidays

A few years ago, I was discussing suicide statistics around the holidays and, after recently watching this movie again, I decided to share it on my blog. This is what I wrote. 👇🏼

Apparently, from what I was reading earlier, the holiday time of a high suicide rate is a myth that won't go away. And, one of the biggest complaints about perpetuating this myth was blame on journalists. Hmmm....

Someone also suggested to why this myth won't go away was because it's premise has a grain of truth and the stories are meant to help people cope with the melancholy and nostalgia that some people experience at this time.

Now, that's not saying suicides don't occur during this time frame, only that, after more research, it seems to be less than other times. In 2017, the CDC ranked December as #12, with 117 suicides per day,  compared to August as #1, with 138 suicides per day. 

But, as with any newer research creating fact changes, another report that I read said that it could be due to what was left out of other reports. For instance, in one area the locals attributed the increase in suicides due to the holiday season, but when researchers looked further into the issue they discovered the local petrochemical industry tended to lay a lot of people off around the holiday season. By understanding another cause it helped address it and work on preventing suicides, as opposed to simply blaming the holidays. 

One article stated that they felt this myth began because of the movie It's A Wonderful Life. In the movie, George decides to commit suicide. It took a visiting angel, Clarence, to convince him otherwise by showing George what his town would be like if he never existed. 

All I can add to this is what I felt during the holidays when I was younger. There were times I had such strong feelings of sorrow. But, reflecting on it, putting things in perspective, I came to a conclusion that it didn't add up, which is why I could shake it off. And, because of what I know today, it's easier to walk away from negative feelings. 

Or... maybe, God sent me a Clarence to help me build a protective wall around my mind. 😇

Tools, Empowerment, and Self-healing

A long time ago, I wrote a blog about the irrational fear people have regarding the Ouija board and other tools people can use for growth and understanding. There are many things we can use to help educate ourselves about the sciences of the seen and unseen.

However, as I was taught, it's not just the tool but what the person does with it.

For instance, a vehicle is a good tool to take us places, but carelessly used it can cause death and destruction. A gun can be used to kill or save a life. A hammer can help build a house but it can be used as a weapon. We have books and computers that we use to gain knowledge on many subjects. Do we fear an inanimate object or what a person does with it? Do we fear knowledge?

In other words, we can send people into space but we also know how to build a bomb.

If we didn't have truth seekers, using various means to advance our education, we'd still be cave dwellers. Yes, there are some who abuse and misuse knowledge, but we shouldn't punish the ones who want to reach beyond our current awareness using whatever tools God sends us to help in that advancement.

Look at how Jesus was crucified, based on the Bible's teachings of that current religious and science standards, for thinking outside the box. So, before we judge someone for what tool they're using to help us advance our civilizations, make sure we understand what it's purpose truly is.

Jesus understood healing. Can you image where we would be today if we all knew how Jesus healed people? Jesus understood telepathy? He talked to God. Jesus could create something out of nothing. He was teaching his disciples. Jesus was also a tool. But, he was crucified for going against tradition.

He wasn't here to just be our savior but to teach us empowerment. Remember, we don't worship tools. We use them to empower ourselves. To build a better life... a better world. To seek out even better tools. Any judging from God will be based on what we do with that empowerment... not the tool... but by our intent.

Maybe it was meant to be that we didn't learn about self-healing. Or, maybe others have been sent but we keep ignoring them, because we're stuck in the past.

Think about it. 

Nature and Climate

I'm not a scientist, but I am a curious questioner. If you are bored and looking for something to do, look into the topic of land sinking. 

When "climate change" was accusingly uttered, recently, because of the flooding in New Jersey, I had this strong feeling to look into the causes. As in, it's not just sea levels rising. 

Low and behold, it has a lot to do with land sinking due to human consumption of underground water and not just ice caps melting. In fact, it's not only happening, excessively, in New Jersey, but it's all over the world. One of the worse area, based on an article I read, was in Jakarta, Indonesia. 

There is an educational article on the Springer website written in 1997 by Sun, Grandstaff, & Shagam, regarding the New Jersey shoreline. It discusses the cause and effect of the increased amount of groundwater usage there, as well as coastal flooding, which is creating land loss and land sinking. 

But, here's the thing, we also have many desalination plants worldwide, too. Since that article was written many more desalination plants have been built. We're not just taking water from the land but also the ocean. 

Wikipedia: "There are approximately 16,000 operational desalination plants, located across 177 countries, which generate an estimated 95 million m3/day of freshwater." 

My point, in all of this, is human consumption of water, due to rising worldwide population, causing more of a balance of nature than we gave credit to before. Land may be sinking but water may not be rising as fast due to more and more desalination plants being built.

It would seem that the increased population may not be as bad as predicted, because it may be holding back the land flooding from occurring, due to predicted rising sea levels. An abundant population? Scientists trying to outsmart nature but nature knows best?

To continue, I live in a state that's surrounded by three sides of water. We are sea level and have flooding due to many reasons. We have a rainy season where a deluge of rain can flood our streets, especially if a cloud decides not to move and just sits there dumping tons of rain. I've experienced this numerous times in living here. And, this phenomenon isn't just at sea level areas. It can be just as detrimental in mountain regions when it occurs. 

But, what some "climate changers" aren't taking into consideration, regarding sea level flooding, is storm surges. This type of coastal flooding can occur worldwide and I've experienced this many times, too.

Wikipedia: "A storm surge, storm flood, tidal surge, or storm tide is a coastal flood or tsunami-like phenomenon of rising water commonly associated with low-pressure weather systems, such as cyclones. It is measured as the rise in water level above the normal tidal level, and does not include waves."

There's one particular thing I've learned in my life, if you continue to build in areas that can be expected to flood, to act surprised, when it does, is moronic. 

As my husband asked me once: Where's the safest place to live in America? My reply: No where. 

Yes, climate does change, but it can also be very consistent. There is nothing new about flooding, tsunamis, earthquakes, wildfires, tornadoes, hurricanes, landslides, ice storms, droughts, etc. What's new is more international media coverage (often from ignorant or bias journalists) and grandstanding politicians. 

All we can do is question everything, as well as planning and preparing the best we can. To build anywhere thinking we're going to beat nature, is foolish. Nature often holds the upper hand.

Your Name

I wish more fathers would be as my dad was, then this poem may mean more. It's sad to see the deterioration in fatherhood, even motherhood, but I have hope in the ones that I see who are doing their best. The blog picture is Edgar A. Guest. The poem, Your Name, has been attributed to him. I read it as a young adult and never forgot it. 

~ Your Name ~

You got it from your father,

t'was the best he had to give,

And right gladly he bestowed it

It's yours, the while you live.

You may lose the watch he gave you

and another you may claim,

But remember, when you're tempted,

to be careful of his name.

It was fair the day you got it,

and a worthy name to bear,

When he took it from his father

there was no dishonor there.

Through the years he proudly wore it,

to his father he was true,

And that name was clean and spotless when he passed it on to you.

Oh there's much that he has given

that he values not at all,

He has watched you break your playthings in the days when you were small.

You have lost the knife he gave you

and you've scattered many a game,

But you'll never hurt your father

if you're careful with his name.

It is yours to wear forever,

yours to wear the while you live,

Yours, perhaps some distant morn,

another boy to give.

And you'll smile as did your father,

with a smile that all can share,

If a clean name and a good name

you are giving him to wear.

~ Edgar A. Guest ~

Breaking Through The Darkness

I've counseled people all my life, even as a child, but professionally for over 30 years. I've come to realize that people will only see what's in their heart. 

Eventually, I learned the reason why people can be so negative towards others. It's often due to the hate of themselves... feeling out of control... projecting it onto another or others... rejecting more awareness... forcing the truth from their minds. 

Makes sense. Light cannot prevail where darkness resides. 

It's what happens when we constantly give our power away. It makes it easier to put the blame outside us instead of looking within for a calmer solution to our issues. 

I suppose it's why I've kept chipping away... to break through that darkness... hoping the light will start peeking through.

Spirit Attachments

It's not always who you are in this lifetime, but past lives can draw things to you, also. And, those lives can create any form of an emotional attachment from others for numerous reasons. For instance: like, love, resentment or hate.

It can cause an enormous amount of spirit attachment/possession with various types of lifeforms. These lifeforms can cause havoc within our energy (mind/body), including creating our habits (good or bad). 

Being a metaphysical teacher, knowing my past lives and current life has stirred up universal energy, I often feel my personal energy looks like this picture. It's a full time job to keep one's energy (thoughts/emotions/programming/health) clear, as well as protected, from these attachments. It can become daunting and discouraging.

Then I think, it could be worse... I could be our beloved Creator with all His monumental trials and tribulations, including endless spirit attachments that He must be drawing to Him. 🤷🏻‍♀️

 

 

DNA/Immortality

In March 2011, I had someone "young" write me on You Tube. After responding no, a short explanation why, and sharing my video about transfiguration, to the first request, I got another email with this in it:

"That's not true, even Louise Hay knew people could be immortal, before the researchers found out that we indeed have that DNA abillity. Thought you were an angel and angels don't have judgements about people, even asking such questions, which in case would save my - and others lives. I thought you can go and ask an angel for me but that's okay, another 'spiritualist' out there...I don't blame you, there are many that think the same."

I had no idea where the "immortality" came from, as it wasn't mentioned in the first email but, with the help of guidance, I gave this response: 

Immortal is not what you asked. You asked: "can you help me to transfigure my face, I mean to change the way I look, change my DNA on a spiritual level?" As you even said, Louise Hay said we COULD be immortal (key word being could) but let's think about the obstacles, etc.

First, everyone is immortal - when it comes to our souls. You asked about changing your DNA. Your DNA is who you are - in this life - what you chose to be before coming here - along with the influences your soul will produce for you too. You mess with it (the flesh) - which is your choice - you might get more than you bargained for. Anyone that has been in an accident and lost a limb or been brain damaged knows what I mean. You will eventually leave this life, as this human being that you manifested, and then you can change it (spiritual level) by going into another incarnation - another life. No one will stop you on that.

Even so - changing anything (any point of view of collective reasoning) can take time (belief too) - I'm not saying it is not possible but you also have to remember - it is not your thoughts (beliefs) alone - we live in a world of very strong collective thoughts - go up against it some time and you'll see what I mean. When I say collective thought - think of things like science or religion. Very strong collective thought that can beat you down if you try to take their "glory" away from what they are maintaining.

To continue, I am a mortal as you are - we bleed/ we die - even though we are doing much to live longer. Maybe I should say, we cross over into the spirit realm - as we are still alive - we still remember. Immortals as angels (spirits or whatever you wish to call the etheric realm) do not - unless they are closed down in an incarnation - to me that is a form of dying - as you forget who you are. If anyone tells you they are immortal and a physical person - if they can bleed - they can die.

I do not have a judgment - didn't even express one - just telling you what I have learned in over twenty years of mind communication with some very evolved beings - not always of this world - who know of our world and what we are capable of - the same ones that taught me how to read the energy of thought and emotions off of anyone that has a soul. The same things I teach others - with validity and support from them - so I know it's true.

People will only believe what they want to believe or hear. We are taught what we are ready to hear or know. In this moment in time - due to the hate and violence on this planet - we are not allowed to do more due to collective thought of those who promote negativity. Look around - I'm sure you will see all the vices on this planet. Now - add in all the medical professions - the ones we count on for survival or burial - those that have to provide for their necessities - they have prayers too. Guess who answers those prayers? We - the mortals on this planet. So to be an immortal here on this planet means to go against a lot of people (collective thought) that need us to not be immortal for their survival. You see - it's a Catch-22. Damned if you do - dammed if you don't.

Now you mentioned me being able to save people's lives as an angel. Well, that's what my videos are for - to teach you and others how to take better care of yourselves. To learn how to know the truth and not be swayed by those that wish to control with false ideology that only cause pain and hurt when you are defeated by them - that same pain and hurt that causes illness and death. To control even your thoughts - those same thoughts of yours that you will want to manifest immortality in the physical. But I will not do it for you as any parent will do for their child - they teach them to be empowered.

Good luck on your journey - and more power to you - seriously. Hugs and peace...

After I replied, I decided to share this to some of my social-media, metaphysical friends in a note. We had a very agreeable and lengthy discussion about it. It's where I found it today and decided to also share it in my blog. 

Also, if interested, here's the video I shared:
