#peace

[gorjessouls]

I did this recently, I took out people in my life associated with a past of pain. Although they may not be directly involved with the pain they saw it and let it happen, they still remain in contact with the individual responsible in hurting me. For that I take myself out the space. It hurts to let go of people who were such a big part of your life but I see there’s no purpose for their presence now and I would much rather be alone than to keep company tied to this past version of me.

I do believe, removing people who no longer serve you will bring space for those meant for your love. Those that bring alignment and peace into your life.

The restless wind had rushed through the tall spruces all night, and by the morning it had swept the drenching Scotch mist far, far away… for the moment, at least…

And, much to Algy's astonishment – for the weather birds had told him that it would remain misty and wet all week in the wild west Highlands of Scotland – the sun was beginning to shine. However, the rather-too-brisk south-westerly was ruffling his feathers in a way that was considerably less than pleasant in the cool January air, so, like many of his smaller feathered friends, Algy decided to seek cover in a dense, evergreen bush.

He knew that some of them favoured the handsome bay tree which grew in a sheltered spot in his assistants' garden, so he decided to try it for himself. Settling down on its dense branches, Algy found that it did indeed afford a great deal of protection from the wind, and the invigorating aroma of its leaves, which continued to glow bright green, even in the depths of winter, lifted his winter-weary spirits. Relaxing happily in the arms of the welcoming bush, Algy began to recite, for the benefit of any smaller birds nearby who might not have the advantage of a good literary education:

How vainly men themselves amaze To win the palm, the oak, or bays, And their uncessant labours see Crown’d from some single herb or tree, Whose short and narrow verged shade Does prudently their toils upbraid; While all flow’rs and all trees do close To weave the garlands of repose. Fair Quiet, have I found thee here, And Innocence, thy sister dear! Mistaken long, I sought you then In busy companies of men; Your sacred plants, if here below, Only among the plants will grow. Society is all but rude, To this delicious solitude. No white nor red was ever seen So am’rous as this lovely green. Fond lovers, cruel as their flame, Cut in these trees their mistress’ name; Little, alas, they know or heed How far these beauties hers exceed! Fair trees! wheres’e’er your barks I wound, No name shall but your own be found.

[Algy is reciting the first three verses of the poem The Garden by the 17th century English metaphysical poet and politician Andrew Marvell.]

Ceasefire in Gaza, we all hope. The Al Jazeera article shows how fragile the plans are though.

The ceasefire agreement was reached and joy is floating among the Palestinian people

They could have stopped this long ago - all they had to do is demand Israel to stop or the funding stops. They never did. Kept giving them money and weapons the whole time.

It was like "no stop don't - here's some more weapons and money." What do really think people are going to believe?

Truth is, lots of money was made, blood money. But they won't get away with it, trust me, just watch.

ALL THREE OF YOU ARE GHOULS YOU HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS!!!

2025 already humbling me after a great 2024. Fighting for my life✨✨✨ in all honesty, it feels like God/the Universe pushing me with giggles to go out and do the shit I know I can do but just procrastinate because it’s “comfortable” and that’s not a way to live all the time. I’ve slowed down a lot to focus on my mental health and to learn how to cope with my bipolar/panic disorder over the past years, but it’s time to take it up a notch.

We must look at ourselves over and over again in order to learn to love, to discover what has kept our hearts closed, and what it means to allow our hearts to open.
