On the opening of the heart 

We have been groping in the dark eyes open, mind and heart closed not seeing what is there.
Or seeing and lying to ourselves about what it is we see.

We all do Know that everthing is alive and aware and that we are a
part of the pulsing beauty of the ALL.
but it has been against the rules to admit knowing that.

The Rules just changed .

You did see fairies and angels when you were young. The rocks, the wind, the goddess, Mother Mary did talk to you in the garden. You did feel the hidden pain of the nature spirits which we ignore, but on whom we depend for life.

Your Heart has opened, all the hearts have opened and it is with our inner
sight that we now can see What is, and seeing we can create a healed planet.

What was going on

It was a game you see, or a class. We wanted to know what it was like to be
alone, isolated, unloved, seperate from the knowlege and wisdom that we are
meant to swim in as fish live in water. We had come to take it for granted
and had not learned to know our blessedness.  So we began an experiment in
being ignorant of being of and in God/ess/ness, Source ,The UnBounded, the
Essential Law, the cosmic pulse.

It is us, we are they, but we chose to forget and now it is finally the
cosmic lunch hour when we stop and look at what we have been doing.
Now we will remember and sweep the marbles of our destructive isolationist games
into the pouch of past  lessons learned and we will begin anew to learn new things.
This is the time for the lessons of joy. Our sorrows of the past age
 have given us the wisdom to create beauty and wholeness at last.

What next?

Well, what is next?  You join with your inner flame, that part of you that
is God/ess/ness and actively create a perfect world. begin with a perfect thought.
thought is the creative tool. A perfect thought is love.

Is LOVE!
Love yourself ,love another, love a flower.
A perfect thought is thanks.
Hold gratitude for all blessings.  Know that all there is is blessings.
The only real difference between Heaven and Hell is attitude.
Now that you have remembered who you are and who we all are.
Now you will change what you need to change.
So that you will know that you are loved and whole,
and in heaven, here and now, always and forever.
