This Moment has Never Been Lived Before

Take as long as you like to get to the point. There is no rush, darling there's no rush.

Take your time. Nothing's mine of all this. So you take it like it comes. Take what comes as it arises. Whatever it is you're wanting to say now, let it out. So you don't know what's happening, well I'll let you in on a little secret - nobody does, absolutely nobody does. 

Is there something that you liked? Then for God's sake, and we mean that literally, then focus on it, that is your guiding light. If there's something you like, then focus on it - be whole in yourself.

When you don't need the outside to mirror to you that you're whole, then the outside can become whole but not before. I mean, you know how this works, if anybody does, you do! I have wells of deep compassion for you. 

You don't give a fuck, you just don't give a fuck about anything. It doesn't matter, child, you just don't give a fuck about anything that doesn't match that wholeness in you.

We recommend you withdraw now. Take your energies back inside the boundary of your Self. And take your lights and swirl them around your heart. You need them now so call them back to you. And you need them now, so call them home to your heart.

Winding down, it's winding down, you don't want to stop, you don't want to stop? Then don't stop. You want to stay strong in the stream, then don't stop moving. And if you don't want to step out, then don't step out. Stay in the stream. And if you want to stay pillared here and anchored here than do that! And if you want to make your home inside here, do that. And if you want to plug back into Us, by all means, you are free to do that! 

And we are very delighted by every aspect of you. And we welcome you home, celebrating all parts of you. And there's nothing we wish was different about you. There's nothing we conceive of as faulty or wrong about you. There's nothing missing in you. No deficiency in you. Rather we see you whole, always, you're whole.

In a fractal emerging, you always express the whole. You are a holographic piece of the whole. And what unfolds in you expresses the whole. It doesn't matter which shape, or version or flavor, or shifting pattern, you are never outside of the One. Nothing you could ever do could break the cosmic pattern.

We know you and we love you as you are now, in this expression. In all dimensions, including this one, where we find you now, where we sing our song through you with our happiness and joy that rings in every cell of your body.

It's all one, it can never not be one. So do whatever you want to do. Do whatever arises in you. Whatever comes naturally to you. In every moment you get to unfold. It's all new, it's all new.

It's never been lived before. It's all fresh and new.
