Off I go

by 8hummingbirdway

I am flying to Africa today, to a place where the people are more connected to their tribal origins. (Children speak their tribal language until they attend school.)

I hope to connect deeply to this continent and to her people.

I hope to know my son better and to be delighted by his good company.

I hope to be my best self, whatever that means in each moment.

I know I will have the opportunity to work with some Ugandan children.

I know I will be able to connect to Mother Earth in this new (to me) place.

I know my helping spirits will be available to me.

I know I will ask each morning for Creator to guide my steps.

I know I will turn myself over each day to the day’s events and needs and blessings.

I have brought some small gifts – a beloved stone for the continent itself, a work tool for the children, and some crystals and a feather, etc. for …I don’t know who will show up on my path! There will be drivers and teachers and people who make food for us.

I know this will be the trip of a lifetime!

Evolution of Humanity and Earth

by 8hummingbirdway

One of the most wonderful things that I have learned from Sri Pune is that as each of us embraces change and healing and release of old patterns, we support the ability of others and of humanity as a whole to heal, change, and release patterns.

The personal work that individuals are doing is bringing a magnified and manyfold healing!

Norlen’s website is now active, featuring Sri Pune, at norlenlinn.com Soon it will be available at the bottom of each page on this website.

Recently I had the opportunity to ask some questions of Sri Pune with a couple of friends and one of them asked a question about the origin of the evolution of humanity and the planet at this time. Sri Pune has often spoken about frequency adjustments and healing for humanity and the planet. Today they were more detailed.

The response included the plans and intentions of the Cosmos in relation to planetary evolution. They spoke of the Cosmos as a sentient being.

Specifically regarding this 3rd dimensional construct of our planet Earth …the planet allows for this evolution, and it is a pre-ordained evolution. Layers of realities have unfolded over time which contain an understanding, and have been gathering information, allowing for a new evolvement of frequencies. These changes are automatically occurring and have already been taking place for a number of years. As the planet itself evolves, it evolves the minds of humans. These layers of realities allow for the evolution. The changes in frequencies and a change in light is speeding up and is supported by beings of light that surround the planet. This evolvement is connected to the entire universe and connects to the current evolution of humanity.

I’ve done my best to paraphrase and convey the message I heard. I often find new aspects to each message each time I read or listen to it. It was a very inspiring and moving message, and to visualize the movements as Sri Pune encircled the planet with Norlen’s hands was also moving. (Unfortunately, the video had issues.)

A link to the audio recording is below – it’s an informal conversation and you will have to fast forward 5 minutes to hear the question and the full channeled message I am referring to in this post. (If you start from the beginning, there will be about 25 seconds of silence.)

Very small lots for sale

by 8hummingbirdway

This morning I woke from a dream of looking at several tiny lots for sale. They were 2″ X 2″ – just a tiny speck of land. They were all on the road on the edge of someone’s property. I was considering them as a good place to place a candle and light it and my friends and I would form a circle “around” it on the road (a dirt road). We would pray or sing or share heartfelt stories – I’m not sure what the entire plan was.

The last one I looked at was on the edge of the property that I lived on for 25 years in Summit. It was a lovely little spot, but the owner came over with a bulldozer and pushed the soil towards me and I backed off. I guess he didn’t want anyone – or me – to own this spot. I can understand that.

I woke up and I thought again of the land I love in Summit. It was my dream home and I’m so grateful to have lived there.

I realized that in the Spring or Summer I could take a walk in the woods the way I often did. I could enter on the road. My neighbor didn’t mind me walking his logging roads, which were extensive. He had significantly more acreage than I. I think I will check with him in the Spring to see if it’s ok. And then I can revisit the lovely woods and some favorite trees and rocks. And maybe I will sneak quietly over to visit briefly with Grandmother Tree. I wonder if the wood chimes I left her are still there.

If it’s Summer, I know where there is a sprinkling of raspberries along the road.

Should Public School Offer More?

by 8hummingbirdway

The dream I had recently about the special course for 10 year old girls has brought me to thinking about what might be lacking in our existing education system. There is SO much in life that I was unequipped to navigate with grace or wisdom when I left home.

Ideally, all the life skills we need would be learned in the home, but who tells their children about the demands and expectations of parenthood – the challenges, disciplinary options, the importance of honoring the child, of listening to them? Some of these things are taught by example. But this depends on the family. Even the specific stages that children go through would be extremely helpful for future parents to understand.

What other things are important for young adults to know?

How about going on mock interviews, learning to present themselves well, and be educated about workplace expectations and dynamics? (Be on time, be presentable, use good manners, clean up after yourself.)

Should children be taught in school about what it takes to live in partnership? Some of some basics about living with one’s chosen partner – blessings, pitfalls and all? How to communicate and navigate interpersonal challenges. (Treat your partner with kindness and carry your own weight.)

Not specific religious teachings, but …something of ethics, honesty, integrity and the skills of personal sacrifice. What it means to be the best kind of human, how to walk in personal balance, and what it means to honor others.

What if young adults were provided techniques that assist one to find inner peace – or even taught the concept of inner peace.

How fruitful would it be to have class discussions about the elements of a rewarding life – and versions of what that might be?

The differences between males and females were very confusing to me for many years. Should all children learn about the differences between the male and female of our species?

What kind of a world would we be creating if we provided this kind of knowledge in a neutral and informational way, facilitating open discussion?

I understand parents wanting to teach their own children values and I totally support that. I homeschooled my younger children for 4 years and I know the commitment, devotion, time and love that goes into it, as well as the valuable family time gained.

Interest, involvement and teachings from one’s parents is a blessing

However, in many families, public school is responsible for providing knowledge. If parents can’t read, their children are taught to read in school. If parents are uncomfortable with numbers, their children gain at least a rudimentary knowledge of the basics in school. What other information and training should be provided for a productive and satisfying life?

I consider it of a matter of great importance what children are taught. They will be the parents and neighbors and citizens and leaders of our future. They will create a future that is beyond what we can imagine. I believe we should give them all the tools we can.
