I think I’ll start with one of the most important lessons I have learned thus far: Have No Fear that you are doing the ‘right thing’.
How, in this uncertain & volatile world, can I actually say that?
Simply put – I know I have my own children’s Highest Good at the center of all my decisions and frankly, that needs no proof for me to know. That truth is deep seeded within me and feels like a need to care, love and nurture. These feelings were magically ‘installed’ in me at the moment of conception; and I tend to trust this divine knowledge above all else – considering it one of the few Truths I can completely put a finger on and explain in 3D.
As a parent, you are bestowed with the gift of guardianship at the moment you recognize the conception of new life. Your soul aligned Itself with a certain true north point and that star resides in a far off place known as Your own Child’s Highest Good. Your soul will seek this point naturally. You cannot steer incorrectly, if you listen and always follow that inner knowing because it is fueled by unconditional love and divine purpose. Lock that truth into your tool belt and allow it to be like a skeleton key of sorts.
Now, it goes without saying that I fully understand not all parents are even capable of hearing their own Truths; let alone quieting and seeking honestly enough to hear the distant echos of the Children’s Truths. But for this blog here & now I choose to pass by that entire section and speak freely on my own direct perceptions, which thankfully does honest seeking, has compassion and unconditional love for All parts of the Whole and knows deep within each soul is their own unique ascension path back to Oneness. Therefore, respect of life and freedom is a base line truth and law in all of my actions, thoughts and beliefs.
It may feel counterintuitive at first, because as parents We are told to Worry or ‘not to worry’ – but either way We are Told by Them and therein lies the initial swap of Power – We as parents are made to feel as if our authority is not solely viable.
We hand off our own chance at gaining wisdom through experience because we are too scared to step into that spot of sole authority. It can be scary to be a parent, to feel as if a small life is dependent directly on your decisions but just like any fear, it is nothing more than a mirage you build in your own mind and chances are when you do finally face it in some way, ‘it’ isn’t as bad as you made it out to be. Perception is everything.
The choice and chance to be a parent is a powerful one and so of course, it has been mutated, distorted and misused throughout the ‘history’ of Mankind here on Earth. Our best means of correcting things is to do our own small part to be the most honest, caring and supportive parents we can at each moment and through each phase of life. It is literally a life long job and only through your lifetime’s commitment do you make your dent in your own ancestral line. This is how we save the world, the children and our selves all at once.
Have the courage to stand in your own shoes, in your specific place in the world – just as You Are. That is your purpose, your divine gift from God and truthfully, from yourself. When we each live this way, we teach through doing, how to stand tall and have No Fear.
What does No Fear mean?
It’s not that I hold no worries at all and go about carelessly in my life but rather that I choose to leave room for God, Source, infinite intelligence, the universe – whatever you want to envisage it as – to leave space for that divine working to flow in and make corrections, adjustments or additions where it feels called to in each and every present moment.
I know that no matter the obstacle, it was directed into my reality for a reason. It is this underlying acceptance that guides me in my parenting and helps me to release any fears and stay solid in my courage, insight and morality.
It took me years to get to this point, believe me, is was not easy but the shifts made have been momentous.
Seeing the positive shifts in my family and the improvements to our quality of life over the past four years has been confirmation enough for me to want to speak from example and say, wait a minute – it can be done, it is being done, and frankly it’s not as impossible as it seems.
Now, as far as direct parenting ‘advice’ I won’t try to offer that, but in these blogs I hope to give case examples from my own life to showcase the kind of problems and solutions we are dealing with as awake parents during this apocalyptic time.
I’m going to offer a few general areas in which Fear can be imposed upon us as parents and then offer some ways in which I face those fears and empower myself.
I have No Fear when Breaking Social Norms or Going Against the Grain
The current model of social norms is now ever expanding and ‘all-inclusive’. That is a lot to keep up with for any adult, let alone a child. These ‘new views’ are imposed in a way that makes one feel as if you’re offensive, bigoted or uneducated if you question, doubt or reject their premise. It’s a classic approach and yet the majority still falls for it.
Worst still, the new social pressures put on children are more aggressive than ever before. It seems like the progressiveness has pushed away the traditional common social boundaries and etiquette to make room for their own versions and in the chaos we’ve lost the right to be left alone.
If something goes against my better judgement, I don’t do it. I learned about the value of integrity early in my adolescent years, thankfully! I found out the hard way, the terrible sinking notion that you’ve sold yourself out for something which in the end, you didn’t even truly want. I even did it enough times, in such magnitude that now, I know for certain I will never bend a knee unwillingly again. Mine is a type of confidence which is gained through seemingly endless cycles of failure and perseverance. I feel unbelievably blessed to have come to this conclusion on my own accord and in my own good time, and so now, I’ve decided to let all others walk at their own speed as well.
Given the current state of affairs in the world, this kind of general statement could mean all types of things and I’ll trust that you will find your own way to interpret morality and ‘norms’ in your own world, just as I have but I can also say without a doubt that you’ve already been carving those things out over the last four years; we ALL have. You’ve taught your children directly while navigating through all these little maneuvers, side steps and blind turns that the ‘world’ has been imposing upon us all recently. How you chose to move through all that, to resist or submit, to openly seek truth or cover your own eyes and be handheld by authority made a very potent impression on your children.
So, look back over those weeks and months, ruminate on different scenarios where you stood your ground or gave it away – and truly ask yourself why you made that choice, how it felt during and after, then ask yourself most importantly what will you do next time a similar opportunity is posed to you.
I’ve never been happier that I decided to keep my sons home, off social media and away from cable TV because I know that each day, instead of pressing on their personal boundaries to desensitize and destabilize, I am strengthening and redefining them in positive ways that will empower their discernment skills for the future.
I have No Fear of Saying No
Similar to above; in order to never fear doing what I feel is right, I had to learn about Consent. What do I choose to go along with and where do I draw the line? How do I draw that line and furthermore how to uphold your own boundary when it is infringed upon by Others.
This has taken a long time and I’m not saying that I never struggle with decisions or that saying no to my children (or anyone else for that matter) is a breeze every time. Of course, we all have varying degrees of grace and ease by which we make choices – but what I can say is that working to uncover where and why I have these issues with consent has brought in such clarity to my life and with that more clear view I have been able to more consciously consent or say no when I want and in a way which is kinder and yet also honest and true.
Nowadays, no one can guilt or sucker me into compromising my well being or the health of my children. No trend or fad is cool enough to make me bend my own inner truth and change course – instead I trust that whatever is right for us is already in place and available, we must just recognize and accept it as such.
Parents hold a sacred responsibility to discern for our children – therefore your choices impact your children’s lives directly. This divine role has been in the spotlight these passing years and will continue to be at the forefront of this war on Humanity and Consciousness throughout the entirety of the Apocalypse phase. So buckle up and prepare to hold your boundaries for your children’s sake – so they may stand a chance at passing onto their own children one day, the freedom to pursue their own happiness.
My strength of discernment has been cultivated and exercised slowly over the years, and if you’re like me then you too have felt the steady gaining of strength and wisdom while repetitiously working out your Sovereign muscles over the past four years.
I have No Fear about Educating myself and my children
Another huge stigma floating around out there today says that we* (under-educated parents) should never do our own ‘research’ or teach ourselves in any way. There are huge fears promoted out there about the Curious Cat who Dared to Do Their Own Research. There has been a careful hand angling the focus of public opinion onto a certain type of information; which They claim to be the only acceptable, right and valid perspective.
Whenever there is a marketing program formed, with lots of funding and orchestration behind it – enough that it makes its way into the Public Forums, I immediately question the purpose and follow the money trail back to the founders. (It’s quite easy to do these days – as only 6 major corps own every form of media presented to The People in America and behind each of those brands is money and shareholders from the same 2 or 3 investment firms.) I think we can call the books on this one. It’s all a scheme, one giant monopoly. It is too obvious to deny any longer and so, have no fear in knowing Who is Behind It All – it’s all right there in black & white any time you choose to open your eyes and see for yourself.
I understand there is a spectrum of intelligence available within our beautiful people; just as there are never ending hues to Man there are also never ending layers to our consciousness. We all learn, see and experience the world in our own unique way and unfortunately, public schools and most “higher learning” model does not focus on or care to compromise and work with the individual’s personal POV, affinities or beliefs. The main model expects the Student to confirm to the Curriculum because the curriculum is set in stone, ahead of time and centers around memorization of topics which must be covered in order to pass the Tests which are used as progress markers and gates, which allow the students to move up in the system. As long as a student can be found in a certain ‘grade’, it is assumed they have available to them this certain data set of random ‘facts’ and that they should be able to spit back the Curriculum’s scripted, preassigned replies to such prompts. IF knowledge is outside the spectrum of the assigned material – it is wrong. Point blank. Perhaps, they may excuse away outlying information as ‘too complex’ for such and such a grade/age/level of education but this merely means, in plain language, that you have not been fed the correct talking points and personal perspectives yet in order to hold this idea as ‘true’.
This model is not conducive with my children’s highest good and they deserve better than the public school model system. After 2020, I could no longer excuse away the lack of positive growth and skill building that is available at a public school.
I’m going to write an entire blog (or more) dedicated to Homeschooling vs. Public School models and our results/experiences with both because there is just too much to talk about for this blog topic.
Why I really brought up this topic was to speak on the fears fed to parents that they are not smart enough to educate themselves or their children. Once we shake off this false idea that learning has to fit into the prescribed public models, collectively We will see that the truth is: learning (AND teaching) happen continually, 24/7 across a multitude of circumstances, levels and ‘subjects’ and is much more personal and diverse than these old models allow for.
If you understand what I’m talking about then You can seek better models outside this old paradigm of the state/public school for your family. Once you choose to want more, then you will begin to see better solutions appear in your world.
I speak from direct experience here. We did the old school public school model lifestyle – with both parents working, the mornings were a mad dash to get both boys up, fed, dressed and dropped off – schedules a complex tap dance which could fall like dominoes if you item was left behind or someone slept late. This life comes complete with never ending stressors, social drama and oh, don’t forget that blessed after-school care shuffle to get them somewhere only to go back to work for 3 more hours. Finish it up with the dreaded rush to do dinner and clean before I pass out from exhaustion – what more could you want from life? Hah! No wonder I was miserable!
Compare that to our current model of life which centers around our well being and the enjoyment of our days – well, I cannot even imagine chaining myself down like that again. But it all started with leaving behind the fears that I wasn’t qualified, smart enough or patient enough to educate my children. I gained the confidence to try it when I saw for myself the truth of the quality of education offered at the public schools. To say it in plain language here – this apocalyptic world promotes a bad system which allows ‘teachers’ to abuse, entrap and manipulate students for 6 to 8 hours each day. I’ve always seen the public schools as nothing more than free daycare for parents; but these days, the atmosphere and agendas promoted within their walls are literally harmful and I could not with good conscience drop my sons off with strangers to be exposed to self harming behaviors and ideologies outside of my scope of awareness, with no direct observation of what exactly they are being ‘taught’.
It was bad enough B.c. – when I had to combat historical lies about Columbus or deconstruct their instilled obsession with certain negative historical events like WWII. Or it was offsetting the bullying, dealing with the emotional abuse from some teacher’s assumptions about my sons behavior and intelligence or deconstructing and explaining why there is an undertone of racism pushed onto us because we’re ‘privileged’ simply due to our white faces. Pay no mind to our lack of actual prosperity, though. These things were prevalent Before – and I felt forced to deal. But now? Nope!
The line was drawn with the silly stickers, plexiglass and mask mandates. These kinds of behavior modifications and restrictions of freedom are literally harmful to positive development, overall health and most importantly long-term wellness and a good quality of life. So, I’m NOT sorry – those things right there are the key ingredients to my parenting mode – and I will NOT be compromising a single one.
Having the faith to know what is right has given me the foundation to trust my own understandings. When I approach learning and teaching from this solid starting point I know that I’ll be guided correctly. Let your own inner voice, intuition or faith be a guiding light as you seek ways to educate your children and never let some outside source force you to change your course.
I have No Fear of the Future
The carrot on a stick metaphor fits perfectly here and I don’t want to fall victim of it, anymore than I would want to see any human stuck indefinitely on some perpetual quest for an external reward posed out in front, glittering and unobtainable. It is unfair, especially when the true gift, which that carrot merely symbolizes, is already birthed within because it is Aliveness being experienced.
Ever heard that old saying the prize isn’t at the end of the journey, it is the journey? It took me too long to get this little bit of wisdom and so I’m sure to offer it straight away to my children. Never let them be fooled into chasing the carrot on the stick held out by Society, instead teach them to chase their dreams, ambitions, talents and callings.
When we allow our thoughts, worries and plans for the future to dominate our present moments we not only spoil the Now but later on, when we do have that opportunity, we will be more likely to overthink and fumble because we will be more concerned with following the preset plan versus actually being a part of the scenario in its true form and making. I hope you sense the important differences of attention and intention here.
The fear mongering media out there is hell bent on worrying the world about The Future. It has been their agenda for quite some time now and I won’t get into the history of that, but know that well before covid there was Agenda 21 behind the scenes molding the bureaucracy, courtesy of the UN and other well funded global NGOs. If this is new info for you, please do some backtracking and read a few books on the subject. Hell, read their own versions of it, if you like – straight from the horse’s mouth: the 4th Industrial Revolution was a term coined after a book by Klaus Schwab. Read it and know these people are creating a fearful future on purpose.
Each one of us creates our own future. That is was a ‘free world’ is all about, isn’t it? Let’s not lose sight of this truth. This means accepting the potential of risk, failure, hurt, along with all the wondrous possibilities like success, accomplishment, and admiration. The future holds space for both, that’s where the mystery and alive-ness resides. The unknown is infinite and in that space is God – and who wants to block that out? Not me! And I certainly do not want my sons to feel forced to retard and stunt their perspectives to confirm to an agenda fueled by fear and centered around hatred. I want to enable them to feel open and free, to become active participants in their futures and to find their calling and go after it. Forcing them to worry about the collective worries of Man’s Future and the Future of the Planet sets them up for a lifetime of failures due to false expectations of reality.
In all honesty, who cares what They say the Future Holds? It’s merely a projection, and a very bleak one at that!
What is real, where the real action’s at, is The Present. There is only one you, one ‘time’ when you can to do things: Now. You can only make an impact where you’ve been placed, when you are right now, and within the scope of influence you’ve got available in your direct world.
It’s with this notion rooted in my being that I parent and live my life. It’s from this grounded perspective that I’ve gained a strong footing in tumultuous times and created a safe, firm home environment for my sons to flourish within. I see this role as my most important purpose in life at the present moment.
Awake parents are guiding their children through this apocalypse with a steady hand, because we know what is at stake right now – they want us to swap out freedom for security and we aren’t making that mistake. Therefore we must teach through action, and show our children how to stand true in the face of tyranny and oppression. The mainstream tells us to Fear the Future and follow their lead in order to make it out alive – however the real stream knows that no one makes it out alive and what They ‘promise’ is not even honestly offered, it’s a bait & switch trick.
If you always seek honest truth and to be of honest service; and you teach your children (through doing) to seek the same for themselves – then you will never fear the future because you’ll know what you’re up against, what tools you have at your disposal and also you’ll be rooted in the truth that no thing is ever sent to harm you, but instead meant to teach us all how to be more loving, more like God, more true to our self.
