So where do you go to be alone and go within and be at peace? We all need to find a place to call our own where we can go to explore who we are at deeper levels and find out what matters most. Take a moment to create a space that allows your mind to unfold and relax. Be it a beautiful cave draped in beautiful flowers or sitting on the lid of the toilet seat, there is a space some place calling out to you. Add a candle and some familiar things that bring you comfort if you are inside and need to claim a space, if it is outside, find a place where you can get comfortable and let go completely. Do not bring music or any technical devices that will distract you. I know, the thought of sitting in silence with nothing to do but be with yourself creeps you out. Get over it! Outside in nature is the best place to commune with life but winter is setting in for many of us so a place inside will have to do until weather permits us to be outside sitting. If you walk in nature it doesn’t matter if it is winter or not, just bundle up and stay warm.
It really is time to find out who we really are on a much deeper level than what we are used to. We have hidden ourselves away behind labels and job positions and status in life. These things do not begin to tell us who we really are. We are far more than our jobs, or our marriage status or our economic standing in the world. Am I rich in spirit is a more worthy question to ask ourselves. Am I giving to the world and making it a better place to live with every action I take? If you sit quietly and ask yourself these type of questions you may by shocked by the answers you get. We have all been deceiving ourselves for a very long time because of the lies we have been forced to live. Time to regroup and rebuild.
So much of how we have lived our lives has been about ‘us’. We swirl around the centers of our being as if that is all there is of importance to take in. We create major problems for ourselves and that is where our attention stays, on things that are not really of importance except in the world of the illusion we are living in. It is time to get out of our heads and out of ourselves and look beyond to the others around us in this magnificent world. What do they need, what do we have to offer them, how can we make everybody’s life a little bit better?
Where is your place in this world? How do you see yourself? Are you complete and whole or in need of repair work? What is your purpose for being here at this time? What can you give to assist the planet in raising herself up to a higher dimension? Are you putting all the small intricate pieces together and coming up with the bigger picture? Who can you help, how can you help? It is no longer about US but rather about the whole of humanity. One small deed you do ripples out to affect the whole. For so long it has been all about US but now we must work hard to understand it is about everybody, for in the wholeness and prosperity of everybody, lies the foundational roots of the new world!
I do hope you will find a space to go and be still with yourself and find the answers to all of the many questions we are all grappling with. The sooner we find them the steadier we will be at our foundation. Self knowledge is the key and the key is what will open the door to the new world. We must know ourselves so we can be secure in who we are and able to stand strong in the storms that lie ahead. There will be tests to go through, moments of doubt to overcome, fear we must push aside, and we can do it all if we know our own strengths, stay strong in our hearts and offer love to all those around us!
Blessings to you all,

Lovely Write VK…. and yes so needed now to find that inner peace and space.. I had to also retreat.. Seems as if the whole world was clambering in my ears… Hence I re- posted my Poem.. Fragmented Souls.. .. For so many dis-jointed ones seem to be howling out there at the moment…
Where do I go?
I shut myself off with my paints and blank canvas, and I paint what the Soul needs to paint… I painted a gold and orange painting of the Spirit of Autumn, and it will feature in my next blog..
We are feeling so much more sensitiveness now, ….. Sending you my thoughts for some solitude and peaceful moments VK…
Blessings DW xxxxx
Can’t wait to see your painting. What a wonderful gift and what a wonderful way to regain peace within. Yes, it is getting pretty intense right now with all the insane things being done. Very hard to swallow day after day but we will prevail! Hope you are hanging in there and feeling better now. Sending you love and peace…VK
VK, I have to thank you for this one. I had a particularly heavy day on the inside and could not quite bring myself out of this state, until I “stumbled” on this post. I agree, the physical place we are in does not matter in the end, as long as we can be at peace for a moment. The paradise place we need can be created on the inside. I generally picture myself out in space on a really tiny planet with a tree for companion and a little spring, lying on a bed of soft green moss, contemplating the stars. And indeed, one can do that even on the toilet! I feel really good now, like a phoenix rising from its ashes. It seems that my energy has shifted completely. And in the last hour I kept seeing signs that my mind cannot comprehend, but which gave me a strong sense of something big coming around the corner…I also feel how we all have become stronger, but don’t acknowledge it, even though it’s really important for our spiritual growth. I don’t know if it’s just because I feel good, but I like it! Keep up the good work my friend. Om Shanti.
Blessings to you Tiamssai….What a wonderful reply to read. It always makes my effort so worth while when I can help change someone’s day for the better! Thank you dearly. I am so glad your day has picked up and you feel good. Yes, something is definitely just around the corner. I am not certain what it is but I just keep praying it is good and not bad. You can feel it in the air for certain. Lots of change going on and I agree, we have all done wonderful work holding the light and keeping the positive thoughts flowing. We all need to recognize our efforts and feel glad for what we have done. It has not been easy in these difficult times. Just a little bit longer…Stay in your heart T…Sending you warm wishes for a good day….Om Shanti….VK
The outcome will be better that what we can imagine my friend, have no doupt about it ! My heart does not doupt this. We all know the end times will and do look like the exact opposite. But we must hold onto the vision of our hearts despite the outside seeming chaos, especially now that manifestation becomes ever quicker as we approach the shift. Blessings returned to you a thousand times ! Om shanti !
The image of the toilet seat with the candle made me laugh VK 😉
When I was a child I used to sit in enormous flax bushes which grow out in NZ…. or I would lie on one of those inflatable things and drift in the ocean … I once did this and my uncle had to come and rescue me as I didn’t notice that I had drifted quite a way out to sea. 😉
It is good to find favourite spots in nature. I have quite a few here … and also recently found a new spot in Roslin Glen.
Last week I had those feelings revisit me of drifting on the breeze and then I came across a Barry Brailsford quote – `Truth is paradox.We go inwards to find the wider vision. We enter the silence to hear the songs of deeper wisdom.We become nothing so that we might be everything…’
That’s kinda what I am steering myself towards.
Love & Hugs

Great quote E…. Love it! I’m writing that one down and yes, it is a great way of being to strive to become.You know it’s easy to say to people go connect with nature but so many don’t have nature at their fingertips, hence my reference to the toilet seat lid…Everybody needs a quiet place to go no matter where it is! Have a fab day and keep sharing the light 🙂 VK
