Hi Prodigiousflames

Thank you for asking...I think, lol. Lets jump in

I am 61, or around there, that is a long story in it self best left for another time. I smiled when I saw old, crone and wise in the same sentence. So often I have been the fool with choices I have made. Not always sure if this journey has created me, or I have created this journey, sometimes the truth is blurred for we each have created the other as we have had a need to face the face of the I Am and Spirit within.

Seems at times as though in this life I have lived several life times. This kind of feels like I have been tying up loose ends before moving on down the path. This life has become some tapestry for which I will ever be grateful for. So to answer the first question..the wisdom has taught me to face myself first and know who I am. We are not humans trying to be sacred. We are first energy taking form in the breath of the I Am so we might learn and grow. We are here for the consequences and to face our power to choose the path we will walk and the steps we take.

2nd question. My childhood was a nightmare ending in foster homes. Still many unanswered questions without answers that have gone to the dust with those who have passed on. I have stopped looking for answers knowing the greater truth lies in knowing who I am, and what Being true to me really means. Was married, had children, and now am on my own. Sometimes its easy to get lost in the thorns, but the real beauty is to step back and see the greater picture of wonder and hope that filters like a fragrance through our lives.

3. Always have been intuitive. Learned as a child to keep this to my self. This awareness and ability has grown over the years. You see, the deeper we go into our own hearts, the more we see in others. Every one is intutive and psychic. We somehow grow up thinking we have to first see others clearly before we define our own visions and path. That is backwards. The truth is only as we love who we are and face our self will we truly develop the natural gifts within us. As we perceive our worlds ...we create them. There is no WOW, or mystery here.

Was teaching a class the other day on awakening our own self empowerment and depth, and found the life we are choosing to live is the life we are going to die for. This is profound when you think about it. We are just groggily walking through our lives as if we are in a collective stupor. When we awaken ... we see and live with different eyes and wholeness. So often we are wanting someone else to define our purpose and reason for being. We want someone else to love us because we can not love our self. We are missing the proverbial point. We will only see others, and love others with the depth we are willing to go inside and face our self without excuse, blame, or judgments. Want to change your world, change how you perceive your world. What you hold on to can turn on you. What you embrace, you let go of and come from a place of trust, knowing who you are.

4. Biggest lessons I have learned. 1. how to forgive myself. 2. How to love me. 3. Wholeness is about being Well from within. 4. How to say I am sorry. 5. How to face the reason and purpose I am here. 6. How to lay down my own petty selfishness, limits and jealousies so I can serve the greater whole. 7. How to be in joy. 8. Embracing peace and learning not to fear the chaos around me. 9. Be my own change. 10. Be Love with a whole heart. 11. Knowing what I limit within me...limits me. 12. Life and death are gifts from which we stretch and become one again in our own power to heal. 13. Last but not least is that to face yourself you must first see who you are. As one knows both their dark side and lightness they can choose with greater wisdom the path they wish to walk. We are both the student and teacher and all that is will show us what we have learned and what more we can know.

5. My past lives have been many and as varied as the paints used in a painting. I have had many forms for the purpose of learning and embracing the consequences my choices have created. Everything from the whore to the saint. The sacred and the profane have asked me to face my own balances. In the end as in the beginning I am breath and energy creating the dream so the life before me can grow in ever changing truths and awareness. What this has taught me is that we are the dream, and the prisons we create around our self, are places we have the ability and power to change by simple becoming one, and facing our self with humbled honesty.

I will be in Albany in July as the Arthritis foundation raffled off my doing readings and psychic parties and a hand sewn healing quilt done with the mantra of love, and will also be in Ohio at the Universal Light Expo in Oct as a guest speaker.

I am still smiling. Thanks again for asking.

 

thank you for sharing crone! Some really good stuff in there that I can learn from and hold onto. Your classes sound fun btw too bad you're not in socall? (assuming)

 

Nice idea, Skip. Yup, that is a very good list, and I agree that forgiving ourselves is number one in importance.

Thanks for sharing your story and insights, Old Crone. It's worth several re-readings.

 

I'm glad you shared that old crone. I also love your pieces in "old crones place" and now since you have shared these parts of yourself I can read your pieces with a new eye.

 

Thank you so much for your writings, through them I have been able to learn and understand so much.
Although I thought I walked in light, realise now that I travelled somewhat in the shadows and darkness, but now I can see a glimmer of the reason why and change my path for the better good.
I don't have the words as you do, to express coherently, so for me it'll have to be actions and not words.

I'm sure that I shall still stumble, and no doubt fall at times, but when I do, I'll know now through you, how to pick myself up and those around me, and walk forwards to the light again.

Thank you so much. :sunny:
