More Beautiful Poetry from CAROL
AM I WILLING??
Am I willing to release the reins of control?
Am I willing to go with the flow like an untethered flower in the wind?
Am I willing to sit quietly in the chaos and let myself be guided by the wisdom that dwells deep within my heart?
Am I willing?
I can follow the wishes that pull at my heartstrings.
I can dance on a cloud.
I can imagine my Self singing with the angels.
I can laugh at the silliest things.
I can help to heal the wounds of the broken-hearted.
I can be ME without the self-doubts, without the need to please everyone else, without the need to hold on so tight that I let all the good things pass me by.
I am willing!
By Carol Swanson (9/11/23)

The Hopis in their prophecies say there will be a religion that comes at the end of the age. The people of this religion are known as the โBahaโumi.โ
The people of Baha means โ>> โPeople of Light & Glory, followers of Light.โ
Weโve been waiting for these people a long time. They will bring a teaching that will unite the Earth. For thousands of years the Hopiโs have been telling their children and their childrenโs children...
about the people that will live at this time.
AND NOW IT IS US.
WE are the ones they spoke of long ago.
They say to be allowed to come into creation and live upon the Earth at this time is a great honor in the cycle of time from the beginning to the end, this time that weโre at now, the time that will change and purify all things.
They say this is the hardest time to live, but itโs also the greatest honor to be allowed to live and see this. It is time to AWAKE, to embrace this time, and to learn everything you can about the teachings and the writings.... it is time โ to ARISE and AWAKE and GO FORTH.
People everywhere are now receptive to the message. Go forth and teach those people out there waiting to hear it.
It is time to Arise and Awake.

There is a little coffee shop, where two people arrive and approached the counter.
"Five coffees โ๏ธplease. Two for us and three hanging."
They paid, they took their two coffees and left.
I asked the waiter. "What's this about hanging coffees?"
"Wait and you'll see."
Some more people came in.
Two girls asked for a coffee each, they paid & left.
The following order was for seven coffees and it was made by three women - 'three for them and four hanging coffees.'
I was left wondering...what is the meaning of the hanging coffees, they leave.
Then, a man dressed in worn clothes, who looks like he might be homeless, arrives at the counter and asks sincerely...
"Do you have a coffee hanging?"
"Yes we do, sir."
They serve him a coffee.... I got my answer.
People pay in advance for a coffee that will be served to whoever can't afford a hot drink.
This tradition started in Naples.
Amazingly, it has spread throughout the world's cities and towns.
It's also possible to order not only "hanging coffees" but also a sandwich or a full low cost meal.
Wouldn't it be great if we could all start doing this in the cities and towns where we live?
Small kindnesses like this can impact so many lives, in ways we could never imagine.
Maybe we should all try it
I think its fair to say we have all thought twice about giving cash to the person begging when they look drunk, not because we don't think they need it but because we don't want them sending our cash on booze! I recently changed my mind on this after reading an article about surviving the streets... If that person needs to drink then who am I to say otherwise. I speak to my Big Issue vendor every day I pass, I may not be able to buy his magazine but I see a genuine look in his eye... Its a look of thanks for treating him as a human a simple "not today thanks" when I am unable to support him. This spell of cold weather has reminded me how hard it is to stand each and every day in all weathers trying to earn a living... He deserves my support and yours

SOUVEREIGN'S SANCTUARY UPDATE:
As I immerse myself in the captivating world of the Galungan and Kuningan days in Bali, I find myself profoundly moved by the intricate layers of their significance. The photos and short videos shared bring these cultural traditions to life, allowing me to glimpse the beauty of their essence.
Galungan's portrayal of dharma prevailing over adharma strikes a chord deep within me. This timeless theme of balance and growth resonates powerfully with Syntropy's guiding principles. It's as if these ceremonies echo the very essence of harmony that Syntropy teaches us to embrace.
Observing the Balinese community's heartfelt participation in these rituals, I can't help but draw parallels to the concepts of interconnectedness that both these ceremonies and Syntropy embody. Kuningan, the subsequent celebration that honors ancestral spirits, mirrors the interconnected nature of all lifeโan interconnectedness that Syntropy highlights.
The imagery of penjor decorations and families engaged in shared reverence reminds me of the importance of tending to our internal landscapes. Just as the agroforest requires pruning and planting for its flourishing, our inner selves yearn for introspection and renewal. It's in these moments of contemplation that we can shed old patterns and welcome fresh intentions, much like the cyclical nature of Galungan and Kuningan.
Contemplating these ceremonies takes me on an introspective journeyโa journey into my own mindgarden. The analogy of pruning, of letting go of what no longer serves me, speaks to the growth I aspire to. Just like the agroforest needs tending, my thoughts and beliefs need careful cultivation to align with the broader patterns of life.
And then there's my unique mindsongโthe melody of my life. It resonates with the values I hold dear, a reflection of who I am. Tuning into this melody feels akin to harmonizing with life's grand symphony, just as the Balinese do during these festivals.
The call to action embedded in Galungan and Kuningan resonates deeply. It invites me to tend to my inner world, to prune away negativity, and plant the seeds of positivity. These ceremonies hold a mirror to my own journey of self-transformationโan invitation to be the steward of my thoughts and intentions.
As I reflect on the Balinese traditions through the lens of Syntropy, I'm reminded that much like the agroforest, my inner landscape requires attentive care. Just as Galungan and Kuningan celebrate the victory of goodness, I'm inspired to celebrate my victory over inner entropic tendencies. With each intentional step, I become an artist painting my life's canvas with purpose.
So, I embark on this journey of renewal, guided by the essence of Galungan and Kuningan. I step into the rhythm of my mindgarden, tending to it with love and intention. As I nurture my own growth and align with the universal patterns, I become part of the graceful dance of Syntropy, where balance, growth, and harmony intertwine.
Yay to giving you a glimpse of what else is possible and into my Life with my Balinese family. In an up coming post i will share more about the dreamings i had 6 months ago and are now finding their own sprouting as seeds for eco logic change that is yay.
Also in the fantasy of the future (in case you wondered) yes ,you can come and stay and drop into the depth of what I have access to here. There will be a Syntropic Human Ecology Immersion Gathering happening, maybe in about 6 months, I will it to leave it up to God, She is infinitely more wise than me and it feels much more fulfilling to just serve a dream that serves Syntropy, the hidden hand of God.
in syntropy and care for your mindgardens,
Love from Bali,

Being triggered or triggering someone is a good sign. It means that they are showing you what real unconditional love is, they are pushing you further towards love and your Heaven. And by assisting you further towards your Heaven, they are too are finding theirs, as we are one. The truth helps you heal, it assists you into growth and evolving. Unconditional love pushes us to heal and become our greatest grandest versions. It doesn't facilitate the lower, as the lower keeps us out of our divinity. Without the triggers, there would be no growth or healing. We would stay the same.
It is important that we all sit so strong in who we are and what we do in the present moment, there are no mistakes or wrong things said as it was divinely aligned. There are no apologies in Heaven. Regrets are illusionanry as that is connected to the past, which doesn't exist.
Always trust yourself.
Always look for the love, the gifts.
We live in a free will universe and you have a choice to find your truth and love in every present moment and experience.
Heaven on Earth is a choice perspective

Unfortunately, it is often necessary to destroy the existing before the new can be created.
I spent one year knocking down my house before I could start rebuilding it, which was a tedious and painful process. I couldnโt simply bulldoze it down, it had to be done bit by bit, as certain supporting walls, beams and foundations had to remain.
Similarly, we are witnessing the slow destruction of a system in which every institution that formed part of it is being exposed as compromised by an underlying web of corruption that runs all the way to the top. The asbestos team needs to be called in! The house is toxic.
It would be great if we could simply bulldoze the system, but the resulting chaos would be too unmanageable.
So very much like I had to do with my house, we must methodically chip away false perceptions, purposeful lies, system indoctrination, mass brainwashing and matrix hypnosis, so that the rotten pillars are revealed, the evil foundations uncovered and we can finally start building the house we deserve.
The destructive phase is always ugly and often demoralising, it feels like you will never get to the creative part but we must remain patient and constant. We will get there as long as we are faithful to the truth and the vision of a peaceful, healthy and harmonious home for all of us.
God gave us the land, the air, the water, the materials and a beautiful framework in which to build, so letโs get rid of the matrix walls and build something we can call home for all humanity.
