Water is Life!

Millions of water drops

drops of water
millions of drops
Falling down the rocks

Millions of water drops
Glittering in the sun
Shining like pearls

Millions of water drops
Ending as a river
Finding way to ocean

Millions of water drops
Creating childrens happiness
Laughter and joyfullness

Millions of water drops
Soon will tide reach
White long shores

Millions of water drops
Animating Waves
into forming caves

Millions of water drops
splittering from above
till reaching top of the hill

Millions of water drops
Without them no sound
No whispers of the living

Millions of water drops
Watch the clearness
From crest to earth

Millions of water drops
For tribe’s best
Beware of waste

Millions of water drops
Treasured should they be
As belonging to all humanity

Dearest Hearts,

As always, I pray you are well. On this past solstice of June 21, 2009 a major doorway opened and supported a massive leap in consciousness to those who were prepared and aware. It is evidenced that the energy just prior to the Solstice and then fully escorted in on the 21st, is powerful, fast acting and will be staying. As a result we need to know how to play properly in it.

This energy that we are in now, ready or not, is manifesting thought into reality lickity split. Mind control is a must now. This new energy pushes us even deeper into the Mystery. Learning how to live in this new atmosphere is a top priority.

This new in-rush of energy is rapidly making a clean sweep of people, situations and ‘things’ not harmonious with this new cycle of time, while simultaneously and quickly creating magical meetings to bring people into alignment with others who they will be playing with and creating with during this next cycle of time. The serendipity is almost as staggering as the wipe-outs.

Several have shared that they feel like chess pieces being moved around on a chessboard. We are and it’s fun once you align with the game.

Many have shared that they feel like they are losing their memories, and indeed they are. It’s not a mind dis-ease. The memories are simply former stories written and produced by a third dimensional mind. There is no further need for them where we being moved to. They are irrelevant, thus intentionally being cast out. The trick is not trying to remember them or re-tell them. Stay in the moment. That’s where the magic happens.

And still more have shared that they sense pressure inside and around their physical bodies. It’s true. The new energy on this Planet is pushing the Soul deeper into the physical body to ordain our Divine natures. Expect more, not less of this amped up energy as you descend and ascend simultaneously.

Here’s some insight to all of the above. More than two decades ago, while in meditation, Spirit clearly conveyed three things to me that all of humanity would need to know for future life, meaning now. I documented all three in the first book I ever wrote, “The Nature of Bliss.” I will share them with you here.

The first is that we would be called upon to live like mystics and enjoy it. The second, we would not teach nor tell what we did not experience, and third, “you will come to know that there is a price and a prize in heeding the message of the Soul. The price: Life as you have known it will never be the same. The prize: Life as you have known it will never be the same.”

This foretelling had everything to do with now.

First, “we would be called upon to live like mystics and enjoy it.” Each of us is smack dab in the middle of living our lives deep in the Mystery, a place neither apparent to our senses nor obvious to our intellect. No doubt a challenge to the mortal mind, yet a rather thrilling game to the Divine Mind.

I am prompted to encourage every one of you to take an honest appraisal of your life right now. If you are still playing the third dimensional game of attempting to control any thing, person or circumstance in your life, please stop it. It’s not working, it will never work and the new energy that rode in on this last Solstice will make your life a living hell if you don’t give it up.

The flip side is that living like a mystic is actually fun, when you get the hang of it. It’s like going to a surprise party everyday. When you enter your day wide open with no preconceived notions, anything seemingly magical, can enter. When you’re not predicting your future and jamming up every corner of your being with struggle and worry, Spirit starts to play and surprise you at every turn. To play in between our notions is a favorite pastime :) of our Creator Source that never deals from the top of the deck!

Added to that mystical living actually creates spontaneous combustion, a rapid chemical change inside of our bodies that ignites our Souls and Divine Natures into action. When that alchemy occurs we sincerely get to play in the realms of infinite potential. That is the Law and the Promise.

Next, “you’ll never teach what you don’t know.” This message wasn’t meant for those acknowledged as teachers. It means all of us. We are all teachers, just as we are all students. What sort of credibility does any one of us have if we are teaching or telling or parenting or coaching anyone about what we have nothing but an intellectual construct about? Have you ever noticed that the energy is not quite there or you’re not taken seriously and to heart if your sound advice is just textbook or metaphysical book orientated, minus the actual Life experience?

Then there is the third point, the deep one. “There is a price and a prize in heeding the message of the soul. The price: your life as you have known it will never be the same. The prize: your life as you have known it will never be the same.”

For this one I will share a true story with you so you really get a clearer picture. This is not a story for stories sake it’s a revealing to assist you in the third message received from Spirit.

Prior to my hiatus where I went to the meet the future Maureen, my former mind had made up two decisions that I thought would serve my heart and soul. At the time those decisions were made I did not seek counsel with my Soul, with Spirit or my cast of Angels, Guides and Teachers, that pal around with me. I was a woman who had made up her mind, period! There was nothing further to discuss.

Feeling pretty confident and ready for some big changes I came back to Planet Work and the place called home. While gone I had made great strides in casting off a lot of dead internal weight. Coming back I was unwilling to cast off the manner in which I had finally found my peace, my freedom and my authentic nature. Easier said than done.

At first it was difficult to integrate these practices, with a load of responsibilities, however I was determined not to lose ground or contact with the Me I had met while on hiatus.

My Soul had noticeably settled way down and deep inside of me, and the noise of my mind had remarkably settled down as well. There was no going back, even if I did slip a few times.

Two days before the Solstice, through a very quick serendipitous sequence of events, I met someone whose every word left a deep impression inside of me. His wisdom went beyond most wisdom I had heard from anyone in a very long time. I ingested it over dinner for almost five hours. I knew my Soul had called forth this meeting purposefully. Not interested in figuring it out, I just noticed.

The next night, I went to my brothers 65th birthday party and celebration of the Solstice. Nearly everyone at the gathering had something to say to me about “the Light coming from me,” or “the difference in my energy.” Interesting to just listen and take further notice.

The next day, Sunday, the day of the Solstice I received an unexpected phone call. The phone call had to do with the decisions my mind had made prior to my leaving on hiatus, one in particular.

During that call a single question was posed to me that would either be answered by my mind, or my soul. That question and my answer to it had the seeming ability to make my minds wishes come true.

Time stood still. My entire body began to sweat, though I was ice cold. The bottom of my feet and the palms of my hands felt like pins were going through them. Becoming both light-headed and nauseated to the point of distraction, I realized the question was hanging in mid-air.

I heard my voice give an answer that could only have come from my Soul. My mind was nowhere in the vicinity. Having stood up I had to grab the back of my sofa to stabilize myself.

The two decisions my mind had ‘definitely’ made were gone in an instant, when I voiced my response. When I hung up the phone, I sat down realizing that there was an obvious exchange that had taken place inside of me. I had finally let my Soul take its rightful position in my life, ahead of my mind. Finally. I sat for a long time in a bit of shock and a lot of awe.

Yes, there is a price and a prize in heeding the message of the Soul. Both will change your life, forever.

Remember: Live like a mystic and learn to enjoy it. Never teach what you do not have the experience of and when your soul knocks, let it in. Indeed there is a price and a prize for heeding the message of your soul.” Collect your prize. The time is Now.

Quick Benefits Can’t Justify Cutting Down Forests

The East African
July 10, 2008
Conserving the Congo forest, and indeed all of our forests in Africa, as well as accelerating forestation efforts, is vital to our survival on a continent where the Sahara Desert is expanding to the North and the Kalahari Desert is expanding to the Southwest.
For this reason the Congo Basin Forest Fund (CBFF) was launched in London on June 17. The initial financing of the CBFF comes from a pair of $200 million grants from the governments of the United Kingdom and Norway.

Ten countries in the Central African region established the Congo Basin Forest Initiative to manage the forest more sustainably and conserve its rich biodiversity. The Congo Basin Forest is the world’s second largest forest ecosystem and is considered the planet’s second lung, after the Amazon. The forests of the Congo Basin provide food, shelter, and livelihood for over 50 million people.

Covering 200 million hectares and including approximately one-fifth of the world’s remaining closed-canopy tropical forest, they are also a very significant carbon store with a vital role in regulating the regional climate. The diversity they harbour is of global importance.

Spanning an area twice the size of France, the Congo Basin rainforest is home to more than 10,000 species of plants, 1,000 species of birds, and 400 species of mammals.

Today, the Congo Basin rainforest is coming under pressure. Increased logging, changing patterns of agriculture, population growth, and the oil and mining industries are all leading to ever greater deforestation.

This situation is not sustainable for the people who live there, for the countless species that may be driven to extinction, or for the climate. Reversing the rate of deforestation in the Congo Basin is therefore essential both to securing the livelihoods of the people in the region and to maintaining the carbon-storage capacity and biodiversity of the forest.

Forests are indispensable yet we take them for granted. Though they appear inexhaustible, they can perish. The two nations who share the island of Hispaniola — Haiti and the Dominican Republic — provide a vivid example of what happens when we destroy our environment, and especially forests.

The deforestation of Haiti and the subsequent loss of its soil made the country vulnerable to devastation by hurricanes and deepened its poverty and misery. Conditions in the Dominican Republic, which largely retains its forests, are significantly better than the other side of the island.

SADLY, THE GENERATIONS THAT DEstroy the environment are often not the ones that feel the consequences. It is the following generations who suffer.

While it is important to protect forests in our individual countries, it is also important to recognise the special value of forests that lie elsewhere, like the Congo Basin forest ecosystem. The negative impact of destructive activities in the Congo forest will be felt in countries both within and outside Africa.

What Africa needs is not only to protect its indigenous forests, but also to engage in massive forestation efforts. It is possible for our people to grow the commercial plantations needed by the timber and building industries. But it is wrong to sacrifice forests to generate quick economic benefits from expansive commercial tree farms.

When we do that, we undermine the capacity of our children and grandchildren to get water and reliable rainfall for agriculture. They may also not be able to generate hydropower and enjoy the many other uses of water because rivers may dry up. Africa is already considered a water-scarce continent. It cannot afford to sacrifice its watersheds.

Wangari Maathai, the 2004 Nobel Peace Laureate and Goodwill Ambassador for the Congo Forest, is founder of the Green Belt Movement (www.greenbelt-movement.org)

Many Wars Are for Control of Scarce Resources

East African Standard
May 23, 2007
Responsible management of resources is linked to peace and security.

Indeed, many conflicts are caused by competition over national resources. This is partly because as resources become more scarce or as people become selfish, greedy and corrupt, there is a drive by the powerful and the privileged to control them at the exclusion of others.

Unfortunately, those who feel excluded look for means to seek justice and dignity. That is how dissatisfaction begins and is nurtured until conflicts, clashes and wars emerge. There is, therefore, need to educate ourselves about the link between the environment and peace and security.

If the link was appreciated, many conflicts would be pre-empted. The environment would be a priority in national budgets and development plans. But the link is poorly understood and many people are unwilling to consider it. The environment is still treated as a luxury, drawing attention only when it is to be exploited to provide timber or land.

People look at forests, for example, and see land and shambas, rather than a resource that provides primary services such as water, regulates climate and rainfall, cleans the air and is a habitat for wildlife. Because the environment is not adequately appreciated, governments would rather prioritise the Internal Security ministry and buy guns and bullets.

Peace cannot be found where the voice of the minorities, the poor and the powerless are ignored and marginalised. These ills are not accidents. They are allowed and tolerated by leaders who refuse to be fair and just. They refuse to manage national resources sustainably and distribute them equitably.

When resources are not sustainably managed, they may be polluted, excessively exploited and destroyed by greedy and corrupt individuals and organisations. When they are not equitably shared, extreme poverty is tolerated amid excessive wealth. When this happens, the community that feels excluded may accept discrimination and injustice as their destiny.

But some may seek justice using other means at their disposal. Some opt for violence, destruction and death. For fairness and justice to reign, there is need for a system that allows that to happen. It should be democratic even though that can mean different things to different people.

Whatever it is called, if peace is to be found within national or regional borders, it has to be a system which respects human rights and the rule of law; includes diversity in the society and ensures that the minority have their say even though, in a democracy, the majority might have their way.

There are hardly any wars fought today that are not over the need to expand borders, access and control water, minerals, grazing and agricultural land or access to forests or coastlines. If countries want peace and security, the leadership must work for justice and fairness for all. They must work for equity, human dignity and the rule of law.

One of the resources we should particularly care about is the forest. Not only because forests provide humanity with many services, but also because without them, the long-term life of the nation is undermined. But in Africa, many investors clear indigenous forests and replace them with commercial plantations of imported trees or crops.

This is partly because forests are wetter, more fertile and investors can make quick profits in a short time. We justify the destruction by promising jobs and wealth. But at what cost? Countries must weigh the short-term benefits of quick profits and jobs against the long-term interests of the present and future generations.

Wangari Maathai

Wangari Maathai is the founder of the Green Belt Movement, an environmentalist, a civil society and women’s rights activist, and a parliamentarian. You can read about her life and her organization through her two books, Unbowed: A Memoir and The Green Belt Movement. You can also scan condensed versions of her life and achievements, including being awarded the 2004 Nobel Peace Prize.

Since winning the Nobel Peace Prize, Wangari Maathai has become a spokesperson for a number of important initiatives.

The Green Belt Movement is a grassroots non-governmental organization based in Nairobi, Kenya that takes an holistic approach to development by focusing on environmental conservation, community development and capacity building. Professor Wangari Maathai established the organization in 1977, under the auspices of the Maendeleo Ya Wanawake (National Council of Women of Kenya).

The Green Belt Movement organizes poor rural women in Kenya to plant trees, combat deforestation, restore their main source of fuel for cooking, generate income, and stop soil erosion. Maathai has incorporated advocacy and empowerment for women, eco-tourism, and just economic development into the Green Belt Movement.

Since Maathai started the movement in 1977, over 30 million trees have been planted. Over 30,000 women trained in forestry, food processing, bee-keeping, and other trades that help them earn income while preserving their lands and resources. Communities in Kenya (both men and women) have been motivated and organized to both prevent further environmental destruction and restore that which has been damaged.
