Grounding Platform

In all of my guided meditations I refer to the grounding platform. The grounding platform is an important part of my mediation. Initially it helped me to drop my focus towards my internal body and allowed my soul to flow more into my body and out of my head. Since my first introduction to my grounding platform it has become much more than just a way to ground.

I was guided to call out to the universe and ask for a platform to present itself to me. When I did this I received the image of a star (very geometric) and over it was a prism (my internal temple or core) I found this an easy visual to connect with as I have always been attracted to stars. In my ego brain that is why I though I used the image of the star, because it was something familiar and comfortable. I would soon learn that my history of star attraction was more than just visual, that it had a reason and that was to lead me to this point in life when I could actually close off my mind and receive their information and guidance.

It took over 100 hours of meditation to start putting together the true meaning of my star platform, so let's start at the beginning. A grounding platform is something that you use in meditation for grounding. Along with being a visual platform to connect to it should also be a part of your own soul blueprint or your unique frequency. Initially I understood this to mean that it was going to be used for protection, since in grounding we are looking to get our bodies and minds into a safe place to receive. I later came to find out that the meaning of your platform can and will hold so many more connections to your destiny and purpose.

After many meditations here are some of the experiences that I had. I was in meditation, and was usually lead by one of my guides to different areas to retrieve information I needed. This specific meditation I was greeted by Jesus who walked me on my rainbow road (this is the method of transportation I have always received in meditation to get to different places/experiences) he walked me to an area in the universe where there was a vortex of stars waiting for me. He told me this was my home and anything I needed to know I could retrieve from sitting with the stars. I would enter the vortex and be greeted by so many voices, I could ask questions or just receive their vibration. Believe it or not this was not after this I still didn't make the connection.

The next big experience I had was on a trip through the great central sun where I moved through the star gate to meet my home or place of origin. Again I was in deep space surrounded by stars (maybe on a planet, maybe not....) and I received a gift from this existence. I accepted a gift and witnessed as thousands of stars moved towards my physical body, as the stars entered my head they turned into green dust and permitted every cell of my being. I watched as the star dust moved into my grounding platform and completely illuminated and activated my own platform. As this happened I had the realization that I could be with my true nature and with my home no matter where I went. This gave me such peace and clarity, but I still didn't realize exactly what this meant.

The final piece to this puzzle. After even more meditations and finally trying desperately to work on waking/walking meditation I realized that by working so much with my grounding platform the entire time I was getting myself ready for this final transition into receiving guidance and being able to receive and connect anytime. By bringing so much of my soul blueprint and existence into my grounding platform all I have to do is acknowledge my platform and connect down to this and I am in a completely safe and personalized space that is sacred to me and my life's journey.

I hope you take the time to connect and understand your own platform as by doing so you can open yourself to your own purpose and destiny!

And So It Is!

Frequency

Don't quote me here, don't even read this if your not of sound mind to discern between thought provoking questioning and your own interpretation of assertion.

Being entranced with chakra theory and dimensional understanding, I have been asking myself lately how the 12 chakras connect with the 12 dimensions and how any of this relates to the understanding of time/space.

It is my belief that our 12 (core pillar) chakras connect with the 12 dimensions of existence. It is also my belief that each of these chakras holds a different frequency. Being that I healed my own current life incarnation using chakra theory and know in detail what it looks like to be living/stuck in a specific chakra, I seem to be able to look out into the world and see many around me who are living in specific realities related to the chakras they are currently learning from. I see a husband currently moving from a sacral chakra to a solar plexus understanding of the world. I see others around me dominated by the sacral chakra or stuck in the root. I have much compassion for all souls in this world and have much understanding of what it means to be growing through or stuck in a chakra. I have been frustrated many times during conversations before with those in different frequencies/chakras than I, and have come to understand how and why these separations occur.

As recent a six months ago I was blessed with the ability to see clearly, with detached acceptance as I like to say. I learned the ability to detach from outcome and accept all as it is, with no hope for change, complete acceptance. Once I learned this ability, I learned that language and meaning of language changes depending on what chakra you are in and what your current world view is. My perception of the world broadened as I personally elevated up in frequency through the chakras and what once stimulated me or gave me a charge came to have no bearing once living in the higher realms of chakra existence. I still have conversations to this day where I momentarily forget my place in this world and realize I am not clued into who and what frequency I am talking to. I then adjust my method of communication to address the other soul in their current life state.

Back to time/space and frequencies. I have come to question exactly what it means to evolve into a higher frequency and what this means to be living in all realities, all times, and all existences at the same time. If you haven't thought about this before just considering this can literally make you head spin. So I began to question what the frequencies, chakras, and time/space can have to do with each other and how it can even work together. Here is my hypothesis.

As we raise through our chakra frequencies we actually become, shift, and transition into our higher frequency. If you follow string theory or eternalism it can be said that we are living all frames of time at once, past, present and future. My favorite reference is the latest Men in Black movie where the kid can read every strand of time at once and has to constantly recalibrate what is going to happen next by watching what is presently happening. Even when this kid knows what is happening he still has five potential outcomes he is working with and has to sort through to try and figure things out.

I question if when we shift our consciousness from one "world view" or as I call it a chakra lesson, do we then literally move from one dimension of existence into a higher dimension. So forget the body/vehicle you are here in because that is just your vehicle. No imagination that your soul energy is living out 12 potential lives all at once, life one is very root chakra or concerned only with materialistic things like, food, house, survival..... Now imagine life 12 is living in pure co-existence with source completely loving and accepting a co-creator, the highest version of yourself possible. Now when your consciousness shifts from one life view or understanding to another do we actually move from one dimension to another? Does our energy change into another strand of existence that was just waiting for us to wake up into it? The more I try and wrap my brain around time/space and string theory the more I think we shift between these different dimensions constantly. When the mystics say the goal is to find stillness and peace in every moment is that because the highest version of ourselves can stay rooted in that higher frequency of existence when we elevate and stay calm?

I have listened to these mystics say we are all transitioning into a higher frequency/dimension and those unwilling to change will be (....fill in the blank they all say different things....) now when the majority of vehicles/humans transition into higher dimensions of planetary existence and find stillness does that mean we bring that energy to ourselves and allow others to see and feel that existence. When this happens can we help bridge others into a higher dimension because they can no longer exist in a lower frequency or is it because our love and acceptance allows them to release into a higher frequency. Or do they chose not to transition at all. Lastly do we have the option to stay with those unwilling to transition and help them see the light or are we called to move onto an existence where all is one?

I love pondering this riddle of existence, and love playing the game of life.

And so it is!

Spiritual Chakras Eight through Twelve

Spiritual Chakra’s 

Welcome to the world of trust. If you consider yourself a seeker of knowledge, a light worker, or even a starseed then maybe you arrived to this point before I did, then again maybe you still need a little help understanding what the heck is going on with your life in relationship to these five spiritual chakras. My own journey lead me to the spiritual chakras about a year ago around August 2013. I had just finished an exhausting explorative journey through my seven charkas “Root to Crown” and thought my journey had come to an end. I had spent 94 days clearing, purging, understanding, balancing, and coming into harmony with my own physical, mental, emotional and spiritual existence. Finally I thought I had things figured out when bam, out of the blue there was more work to do.

Exploring and healing the seven traditional chakras was a process. I can’t even begin to describe that amount of time and work I dedicated towards figuring out why I am the way I am, why I react to situations the way I do, and oh yeah why I blamed so much of my worldly troubles on those people around me. Anyways I came into the realization that the world is here to teach us valuable lessons and if you are a student and ready to learn with EYES WIDE OPEN, then you can start to figure out exactly who you are and why you chose to come here in the first place. The seven chakras are beautiful reminders that we are growing, evolving human beings and once you figure these seven out the remaining five just seem to fill into your life where you are ready and willing to allow them to.

Five Spiritual Chakras:

As you move up your chakra pillar into these five higher chakras you also move up in frequency and higher dimensions of existence. It has been said that there are 12 dimensions of existence. Our 12 total core pillar chakras each connect to one of these 12 dimensional levels. For this explanation all you need to know is that each dimension has its own frequency, lowest starting at the root and highest ending at the 12 chakra. We are feed by the experiences of each chakra and therefore also giving and receiving information from each of these dimensional levels. The seventh chakra the crown chakra is basically a gate keeper of energy between the six chakras below and the five chakras above. Although there are times in life where these chakras can be more open or closed, weather yours is open or closed depends on your personal experiences with the situations that surround the crown chakra. See www.chakrasroot2crown.wordpress.com/crown-chakra-review/ for more details.

Once life is figured out on a physical level of existence you begin to open to these higher dimensions of energy. Your lower chakra don’t necessarily need to be open or even active for that matter to receive the energy of your spiritual chakras, but it does help tremendously if they are, mostly because it is easier to understand what is going on.

Chakra 8:
The eighth chakra is all about dealing with Karmic residue. What this means is that when you reach this energetic center anything you haven’t dealt with yet is going to come out to greet you. If you are unaware of chakras and how to deal with their energy this energy might seem like it’s of your current life’s creation and you might think people around you are turning against you or you might think your world is rapidly changing, but it is usually just an indicator of unfinished past life stuff that needs to be brought to your attention so that you can get ready to clear it in the ninth chakra. If you are actively trying to raise your frequency higher and are working on opening and balancing your chakras than you will already know what it feels like to be bombarded with energy that needs to be cleared. If you are unfamiliar with this chakra clearing process, I will list here how it can feel to have a release of chakra energy. Example: Jan’s husband gets home from work, he mentions something about a co-worker and Jan starts to get a feeling of uneasiness and negativity. Jan knows that this energy is not of her own creation and it does not feel like a typical emotion that Jan gets so Jan excuses herself to take time to figure out what is happening inside of her. Example Two: James hears that someone said something inappropriate about him at work, James usually doesn’t get so offended when people say things about him because he has a high level of self confidence and self esteem. James is perplexed as to why he took so much offense to this comment. James knows that this emotion does not fit him or the situation and decided to decode what was said in order to figure out why he might have taken so much offense. James then takes the information he heard and breaks it down to a few key indicators of what might have unsettled him, James then allows himself to be open and see if these issues arise in any other forms so that he can start to pin down an area in his being where things are not what they seem on the surface. By being open to your feelings and allowing yourself to trace energetic charges inside of you, you can start to trace emotions to mental blocks or back to areas of your life where things tend to end in the same type of negative situation. By opening yourself to these energetic charges and being non judgmental you can then move into the ninth chakra where you start to deal with these Karmic issues.

Chakra 9:
The ninth chakra is where you will clear and deal with the issues that arise in the eighth chakra. You not only deal with the issues, but allow these issue to become life lessons in which you gain incredible information about who you are and why you chose to operate as you do. You then release the Karmic Residue that has been following you up to that point and that issue will cease to be. Because you have transformed the issue into wisdom and have learned your life lesson your energetic field will release this energy and you will not have to deal with its issues again. Personally when going through the 8 to 10 chakras I witnessed myself go through a lot of acceptance and detachment. I had to accept that I had no control over others people’s lives and that I had to accept others for who they were and what spiritual lessons they offered me. I then had to detach from outcomes perceived and unperceived and just allow myself to play in life. I had to release the thought that I knew what was best for me and others and allow myself to be present and bring more stillness into my life.

Chakra 10:
The tenth chakra is where everything starts to balance and harmonize. Duality ceases to be and you become a united person. This might sound superficial, but I will tell you it is anything but. This chakra is one of the most interesting when it opens because it allows you to observe things from ALL perspectives. The biggest form of duality that left me was the part of me that identified with masculine and or feminine. I actually realized what it felt like to have the stereotypical masculine needs and understood what it meant to have feminine needs. I understood the beauty and complexity of the different sexes and actually released a lot of my ego surrounding what our concepts are on unity and marriage. I feel complete and universal love for all forms of existence even those that some of our modern day beliefs discourage us from accepting. This chakra is really wondrous once it opens because it allows you to bridge together so many different aspects of yourself. You no longer hate merely because society told you to hate or disown because society told you to disown it. The 10th chakra actually bridges to the heart chakra which is very significant because anything worth fighting for stems from the heart chakra.

Chakra 11:
I must say I believe I am in the midst of this chakra fully activating so excuse me for not giving many personal details. The eleventh chakra has you merge in with Devine Mother which is basically chakras 8-10, acknowledging life lessons and then merging them with your spiritual development. Then you start to merge with the Devine Father or the monad energy. When you do this you start to transition from the thinking of one body one existence, to no body one vehicle many plans of existence. This to me has been the hardest part of this transition. (It's always hard when your going through it, another reason why I know I am experiencing this now.) in the eleventh chakra you transition from a 3D world where things happen to you to a 5D world where you create anything and everything. You become more light body and less physical body and need less and less of the material existence to survive. This is also where they say the gifts of, telekinesis, bi-location, astral travel, teleportation, and manifestation start to come to you.

Chakra 12:
This is where the ability to manifest in the physical and non physical realms is possible. Meaning no time space all time space. The opening of this chakra will send assertion energy into the lower chakras to have them start to develop faster. The body moves from carbon 3D to light or carbon 7, 5D. Once this opens the skills gained in chakra 12 will become active. It is interesting to note that the time lapse on these chakras can take awhile to move from one to the other. Chakras 8-10 can take anywhere from 1-8 years to open and chakras 10-12 can take an additional 1-5 years to open. Although as more people as send this time laps will get less and less.

And so it is!

Grounding

In meditation it is so important that you begin each practice with a grounding. In my experiences meditating I was told over and over by teachers and intuitive's that I was not accomplishing correct grounding.

This is not the thing you want to hear when one you think you have it down, and two they never tell you how to accomplish it for yourself they just tell you your not grounded. So after many years of trying different techniques and seeing different teachers I finally was told I had it down and was securely grounding in my meditation.

That technique I would like to share with you. I will start out saying that I hope thus technique gets you started and like me you might have to evolve it over the years to match your need and frequency moving forward.

GROUNDING:

Start by sitting in a comfortable position with your feet on the ground. Make sure your head is supported and you feel comfortable. Hands allow to lie open along the sides of the body or place hands in Guyana Mudra for grounding. Next start to visualize yourself standing on top of the earth. See the gridded energy line with in the earth and acknowledge their power. Next visualize your grounding platform. This can be of your own making don't rush it try and let something come to your minds eye naturally. Next visualize yourself stepping onto this platform one foot at a time. As you life your foot really actively feel that foot being sucked down like a magnet on to your grounding platform. If your know meridian points focus your attention on kidney point 1 bubbling springs. Then repeat with the other foot. Now that you are on your platform you want to move it on top of the warts surface and allow the platform to magnetize down on top of the earth and settle into some of those energetic lines running with crystalline energy. After you secure this connection to earth, we will start to call up earths crystalline energies through the platform through your feet and into your body. Performing the ring of earth we will call this crystalline earth energy into your body and create pools of earth energy inside your body to stabilize and bring you balance and stillness.

Ring of earth:
Start out pulling the energy into the bottom of the foot through kidney 1. This point is on the bottom of the ball of the foot right in between the first and second toe about and inch down from the top of the foot. While working with this energy I like to visualize it take the form of a plant like a vine of ivy moving through me or roots of a tree or a stem of a flower. Whatever image works for you go ahead and use. Next allow this energy to move to the point behind the ankle, on the lower back outside of the ankle. Let the energy pool here and allow the flower or roots to extend out of this point creating a pool of connected energy. Next move up the middle of the leg and to the point on the very middle of the backside of the knee. Again let your flower blossom out here at this point. Next move all the way up the inside of the body and to the points on the sides of the top of the clavicle bone. Allow two more flowers to blossom here. Then move up to the point on the bottom of the Adam's apple on the front and back of the body. Allow two more roots or flowers to grow. Then move to the points under the ears right where the earlobe hits the side of the head. Allow two more earth energy pools to create here. Then finally these two points merge into one at the top/crown of the head where the energy will exit your head and move up your spiritual chakra pillar to your higher self. Then working in reverse follow and trace this energy line back Down the body to your feet and back into earth. I do this two to three times before I move on.

After I work with the earth energy I usually visualize myself growing legs of light where I visualize my legs extending down into the earth and actively pushing the grounding platform down into the earth. I do this active push through the earth for three or so breaths. Actually I look for a source of white light that I connect into with my platform then I stop.

Next I start my invocation to call in my guides. This could be different for everyone, but as we are all the same these will work for you until you specifically connect to a group you chose to work with. Starting this process we must find our heart of hearts to work with first because this is where we will invite spirit in. I like to do a breathing technique with the heart first to open then I ask to receive. Start out using a circulating in through the nose out through the mouth breath. Then gather an emotional memory that creates feelings of joy and happiness something strong that you can focus on. Next using the breath move that memory from your mind into your beating heart. From here release the emotion tied to this memory and allow it to just be in the area of your heart that lies directly behind the emotional beating heart. Now find stillness. With you attention on this area of the heart I like to use the circulating breath to open and expend the heart. After a few breaths you are ready to invoke your help and protection for this meditation.

Finding your heart and using breath we are going to call in the Devine mother and Devine father (silver and gold) active pull this energy down your chakra pillar using the breath into the heart. Then moving up wards again invite in the mighty I am presence. Allowing this to settle into your sacred heart center. Moving up again calling in the ascended masters, the league of lights, the high councils, the christed civilization, the highest and most loving angles and saints, and the arch angles to be with you in your sacred space. Then down to the ascending Gia, the animal spirits, nature kingdom, devas, elemental forces, and crystalline energies. Then call in your own highest and most loving spirit guides to help you in this activation today. Then say I call you all here to be as one, to act as one to speak as one.

Lastly and most importantly depending on what kind of work your doing call on the crystalline energies to surround your body and auric field to protect you during your meditation. I usually say something to the effect of, so that I might meditate and pray under the Devine guidance of source. Visualize the ball of energy becoming a mirror ball so that you can see out but nothing can see in.

This brings you to a place of peace where you can then work actively on whatever other intentions you may have. Or you can sit and receive in quiet stillness.

A big influence on this grounding meditation for me was Meg Benedicte. I found her when I moved from my 7 body chakras to the 5 spiritual chakras. She opened up a lot in the way of higher connections for me.

And so it is!

Akashic Records part 1

Traveling to the AKASHIC RECORDS.

My first visit to the Akashic Records was performed while under the guide of one of my teachers. I have been very lucky to have access to these records during any active meditation where I chose to go there or gets surprisingly taken there. My teacher claims it is a part of most peoples ascension process to visit their Akashic Records, he also told me depending on your path you may like him, only visit the records a few times and never get back. One thing I have learned is that anything you desire to do you can do so if the records interest you I would encourage to set intentions durning your grounding process to visit your records.

The Akashic Records are a sort of library where all of your over souls information is stored. I have found that usually one of your spirit guides will be in charge of taking you here, I don't believe I have ever traveled here with out one of my guides accompanying me. Again this could be unique to my experience. I have never read any of Edgar Cayce's work, but understand he has done probably the most documented work in the records. In my experience everyone's records are different and almost like a unique signature or fingerprint of your own energy. I have been lucky enough to experience a few people in my life's records and each were so beautiful and completely different. Again in my experience the records were filled with books mostly, but there were other items like telescopes and other worldly items that I could move up to and receive information from. Most of the time I would go seeking out an answer to a question and would be drawn to a book somewhere in the vast library. Once I found the book I would move to a table where my guide was and open the book, I would then see pictures sometimes stationary like tarot cards that would require deciphering and sometimes the pictures would turn into movie reels once I found them. This part I know is specific to me and my progress in my spiritual development. I understand we are constantly changing in how we receive information during active meditation and depending on where we are and how we are being guided to develop is how we will receive information. I know sometimes people can organize their library as to how they are looking to learn and receive. An example of creating your library would be to request a chair and ask to watching a movie, or even ask to have a guide that acts as a librarian that can do most of the work for you.

The Akashic Records can give you information on your current life and anything from health to career guided information. Your records can also revel past lives and or future lives. Your records can show you all you incarnations that were here on earth and from other incarnations before earth and before our known forms in human bodies. Your records can show you the unique gifts and talents you bring with you from these previous existences. You can gain any information, as far as your mind can reach to ask a question you can get an answer here in the library.

GETTING TO THE RECORDS:

My process. After doing a strong grounding (see my meditation on grounding) I then start to get myself into my subconscious mind. I do deep breathing and wait to see some form of vehicle appear to me in my minds eye. My usual mode of transportation is a bubble. I allow the bubble to surround my body and enjoy the ride (side note a friend I know uses a hot air balloon, it can be any mode of transportation that appears to you). When in the bubble I allow my body to become very light and really higher my frequency by moving the energy deeper and deeper into my body (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) then I wait for my next mode of transportation to appear. I see these different vehicles as my way to dive deeper and deeper into my subconscious brain and a deep state of receiving. The next thing that happens for me is my bubble docks onto a cloud. I then step onto this cloud and almost instantly see a walkway up to the stars. My walkway is a rainbow, but I am sure this could be any walk way. From here I sink my body into the frequencies of the colors of the rainbow which I actually acknowledge as healing to my spirit. Then I just lay in this rainbow as it moves me from the cloud in a blue sky into the universe and surrounded by stars. I ride the rainbow until I dock onto another cloud. This final cloud is alway holding a wooden door with my guide standing on the outside waiting to take me inside. I usually visualize interaction with my guide and then move into the door once the guid open the door. Then I am inside my records.

This is my process and yours I am sure will be completely different as we all have different needs to get us to that place of release and receiving. I don't access my records as much anymore, I was actually guided to take this rainbow to a new destination which I feel was moving me away from the records and into a new form of learning. I now walk the rainbow to a vortex of star energy. I now sit in the middle of what looks like a tornado of start. The stars now talk to me and give me information. I actually have these stars as my grounding platform in my grounding meditation. I feel this is part of my origin and feel this connects me stronger to the information I am supposed to receive now, but still love going to my records whenever I am guided to.

And so it is!

Shape Shifter

Having the absolute pleasure to spend 2 hours of my day today meditating with a group remotely, I am reminded that even the most seemingly obscure visions have profound meaning if given enough time and investigation.

Being the Equinox this meditation had a very specific intention for all involved. Our mission was to aligning the ever growing universal consciousness with the 5th dimensional ascending Gia. If you are unfamiliar with 5th dimensional ascending Gia, it pertains to the consciousness shift that humanity is currently experiencing. It is believed that at some point in the near future our race is going to chose to move into a 5th Dimensional universe where light and love are the basis of all living things. This place will have no need for ego based thoughts or desires. There is much theoretical science surrounding this concept right now everything from studies into the Higgs Boson, to the history of the universe and how it created it's current dimensions after the Big Bang. Our universe is going through some radical changes right now and it's so much fun being in a front row seat.

During this active meditation we did everything from removing the 3rd Dimensional matrix of illusion that blocks our ability to shift into a 5D reality, to increasing our receptive internal antenna connected into the pineal gland in the brain. Needless to say we were being quite active.

At one point while working on our bodies remotely we were guided to connect to our place of origin. I have done this before in the same type of meditative activation, and ended up returning to my body with a green emerald like crystal. It was a gift from the energetic beings of my place of origin. I meditated on this gift multiple times before it revealed itself to me. One day it didn't feel right to hold onto this crystal anymore so I let it go and it turned into green dust that surrounded my body. I later used this green dust to create a grounding platform for myself where I still to this day connect into before every meditation.

Today when instructed to receive gifts or messages from my place of origin, I didn't receive quite like I did last time. Instead I saw the energetic forms of these beings circle around me and begin to dance. I saw their energy shape-shift from half-bird half-man creatures, into wild animals, into pure energy, and into other beings I can't describe. It was beautiful and primal. Then these beings projected this shape shifting ability onto my form and like them I started changing forms. This was the main gift I brought back with me from this activation.

After the meditation ended I was a bit confused as to what the symbolism of the shape shifter meant for me right now. I know the shape shifter is used as an archatyple image in story telling, dream interpretation and writing, but couldn't place more than those limiting versions to my own experience and what it meant. I find anytime I need a bit of clarity on an experience if I go to google and type in a few abstractly connected words I always get an unbelievably revealing answer (and never have to open more than one or two links to find it). Today when using this google super brain I found a link that clarified exactly what the entire intention of our global meditation was all about.

http://dreamhawk.com/dream-encyclopedia/archetype-of-the-shapeshifter/

I found that this definition about shape shifters basically sums up my past six months of existence on earth. My motto has been detached acceptance of all things. I have been growing myself endlessly trying to find harmony and balance between the dualistic parts of my being. Example: male and female, one and all. I read Dream Hawks interpretation of a shape shifter and felt an immediate bond to his words like a recent dream not yet forgotten.

My hope is that everyone has a chance to have these connection and these validating experiences in life. I pray that all souls receive the confirmation that their souls purpose is being lived out and fulfilled in this now moment. I pray for unity consciousness and I pray for self love because self love is collective love.

More to come on this in the future!

How Quickly Does Your Universe Work?

Fail Today...........

How do you teach a 4 and 3 year old life lessons? Apparently you don't they teach you. Last night was the breaking point for our family, a specific toe headed 4 year old and curly haired 3 year old don't know how to listen, keep their hands off each other or their friends and like to scream I hate you now... So moms master plan (dad kind of bought in, but you could tell was on the fence) was to wrap presents early put them under the tree and start to take them away as the boys continued their debauchery. Well life lesson #563 - do something to catch negativity and you will get a negative reaction. This am dad left the house telling the little curly one not to touch the presents, flash forward 15 minutes garage door closes and the tow head wakes up and the crime scene appears. Moms take away, if you set an intention to catch someone doing something negative, the universe is going to give you a negative incident to catch and teach from. Although the teachable lesson will most likely be geared towards you not the one caught in the act.
