FREE TO CHOOSE

I have never been clearer that I incarnated largely to learn the power of freedom and of choice.

I am here to be truly free to choose. To choose my own inner experience and how my choices will always affect the whole.

As I have written and spoken about the profound symbolism of the time of Covid I will not dive too deeply into those specifics again. I truly believe that this is one of the most significant demarcation periods in human history. We have everything that we need to either destroy the planet and all of its inhabitants, or open to a quantum awakening that will result in a world of profound peace, connection, harmony, and love. I deeply believe that this is so. One of the unmistakable lessons from this pandemic that continues to be reinforced is that we really are all in this together. We are inextricably connected. Each choice that we make affects the whole.

The whole.

Every choice that each of makes affects the entire Unified field at some level. Each and every choice has consequences. It does not matter whether or not the choice is conscious. The effects are equally as powerful. We are all being beseeched by current conditions to begin to own our Inner power and to make conscious choices that benefit all beings.

May I ask you to read that preceding paragraph once again?

Every choice that each of makes affects the entire Unified field at some level. Each and every choice has consequences. It does not matter whether or not the choice is conscious. The effects are equally as powerful. We are all being beseeched by current conditions to begin to own our Inner power and to make conscious choices that benefit all beings.

Because humanity had unconsciously reached an unsustainable level of disconnection and divisiveness, that consciousness outpictured in ways we could not ignore. Our critical mass consciousness went literally viral. Our collective consciousness manifested contagiously in the physical realm. Because we did not choose to own the reality of the “Innernet” and what that means in terms of individual choice, we had to learn via disease, distancing, and death. Record numbers of individuals died because of unconscious, and tragically, even conscious choices in terms of how we related to what was happening. The simplest of heath recommendations were weaponized and politicized. Conservative estimates state that well over fifty percent of the ensuing Covid deaths could easily have been prevented. But vast numbers of people turned the effects of divisiveness and disconnection into amplified manifestations of divisiveness and disconnection. Refusal to distance in the name of safely coming back together were met with obstinance and rebellion. Suggestions were demonized and messengers were dehumanized.

Every choice that each of makes affects the entire Unified field at some level. Each and every choice has consequences. It does not matter whether or not the choice is conscious. The effects are equally as powerful. We are all being beseeched by current conditions to begin to own our Inner power and to make conscious choices that benefit all beings.

One of my most treasured values is freedom. In my youth it presented as the long-sought after freedom to do what I wanted. Not only what I wanted to do, but when I wanted to do it. I grew up in an extraordinarily strict household. I had very little personal liberty. I vowed that one day I would be free. Personal, individual, autonomous freedom. No one was going to limit my free will ever again.

Freedom remains my most treasured value. It has, however, grown from a desire for personal freedom to do what I want to an urgency for freely making choices for the good of the whole. Freedom for me remains an internal sense of autonomy, for sure. But that autonomy is in service of Something far greater than my personal self. I seek daily to question my choices, mindful that my every choice will either benefit or detract from the Greater Good. Freedom for me is being free enough to live an awakened life that sees beyond just personal preferences and desires. I desire to live in such a way that embodies the Cosmic Truth that All is One. That there is in Truth no separate self. I cannot make choices that only affect me. It defies Truth and it defies Law.

There is one of us here, and we IS it.

So, almost two years into a time of pandemic and unprecedented loss my freedom to choose has been repeatedly tested. My every preference has been triggered. I have made choice after choice that I personally did not want to make. I often feel as if my personal liberty is violated by the opposing choices of others. The temptation to fall into the deepening divisiveness has been so seductive. The allure to dehumanize has resulted in many inner battles. The impulse to throw off the mask and to drop the distancing has at times felt insurmountable. And then I remember that those temptations, allures, impulses have nothing to do with authentic freedom and choice. My essential Self will always confront the surface desires in favor of higher choices. Higher choices that benefit the All.

I freely admit that this pandemic has become beyond exhausting. It is but one effect that we are facing that disturb and challenge me on a daily basis. Though an extreme introvert I am tired of distancing and isolation. It is tormenting to witness such extreme suffering on a daily basis. I never dreamed I could survive so much death and loss in my lifetime. And yet I am clear that I am stronger, more resilient than I was when all of this started. Fortitude has become my superpower. And while not perfectly I have developed the freedom to make conscious choices. Choices that are made for the benefit of all.

Every choice that each of makes affects the entire Unified field at some level. Each and every choice has consequences. It does not matter whether or not the choice is conscious. The effects are equally as powerful. We are all being beseeched by current conditions to begin to own our Inner power and to make conscious choices that benefit all beings.

Every choice I make is consequential. Coming to know as factual is confronting and also equally liberating. Staying awake to the energy behind my choices is my most cherished freedom. While I always thought freedom was doing what I want I have learned that authentic freedom is being what I am.

Freely choosing to be what I am for the benefit of all beings.

That is what freedom and choice are all about.
