Erthlog: the Failure of the "American Dream"

Well, this is probably going to be a controversial topic, but I am going to address it anyway. It fits in with the ideas of the new dream, and the disintegration of the old dreams.

What motivated this, is that I have been deeply disturbed by several people who have written to me from the USA, and the letters all express the same topic. They are Lightworkers, but they are exhausted and without money. They have lost their homes, and they do not know where to go and what to do. They express the desire to leave the planet, since they feel there is no place for them. They write to me and Archangel Michael in the hope that I will be able to give them some last hope.

Well, I could ask them why they have created that reality for themselves. I could ask them why they don't manifest a better reality. I could tell them to find a workshop. I could make it their problem. But in effect, it is not their problem. It is "Our" problem. The ability to manifest requires a fair amount of focus and intention. When you are exhausted from the struggle to survive, you just don't have that energy. That is where your community is supposed to provide a safety net, to catch those who fall and to hold them. But, in the modern version of the "American Dream", everyone is so busy manifesting their idea of material abundance and grabbing what they can and holding onto it, that they cannot even see those who fall around them.

And so it is, that we ...We...all of us....have to change. We cannot go on allowing people to fall because we don't care. We have to learn to care and find ways to care.

I know what it feels like to be in that situation where you are alone and you have absolutely nothing and no-one. I was lucky, someone did help me. It was an American, in fact. He helped me to get back on my feet and empower myself to earn a living again.

I felt supported by Spirit, but I had to do the work myself. I had to find the energy to get going again.

This is what these people need, someone the reach our and help them in a material way when they are exhausted and they fall down. And to make them feel that they will be supported as they take these steps

I remember in 2006, I did a workshop with a group of people. There were about six of them, and one day we had to walk to the beach as a group. One of the participants had MS and could not walk fast. I walked with her, and the rest of the group just wandered off, making sure they got to the beach and were there, but with no concern for how others got there. I was angry at the time, and told them that if they were a "tribe" and had lived a thousand years ago, they would probably all have been eaten by wild animals, because no one was interested in what happened to the other members of the group, as long as they got to where they needed to be. Learning to care for the welfare of others on the journey is part of the journey. Arriving at the destination all on your own is quite meaningless. As so many are discovering.

So, I can write to these people who wrote me the desperate letters, with some words, I can tell them to trust, I can tell them all the things I know and they know. But, I keep seeing in my mind an image from the Rainbow warrior video that I connected you to yesterday. The Rainbow Warrior puts trust in actions, not in words.

What can I do? What can any of us do? That is the biggest challenge facing us as members of our Lightworker family, in the USA, feel the failure of the American Dream.

They are asking us for the New Dream....and to make it real so that they can join us on the road to the future.

It has to be a global dream, so that we, as Human Angels and members of the Human Family, can all live in Light and Joy, not just those of us who have the energy to manifest what we need for ourselves alone.

I can only ask all of you who live in the USA at this time, to keep your fellow citizens in your hearts and minds. Pray for them and do what you can for those who are feeling this pain right now. It is not their "fault". It is the failure of the old dream, and it is the time for us to find a new dream. A Dream where a "Community of Light" can be the safety net that catches and supports those who are too exhausted to go on alone.

Being one of those... albeit not one who has contacted you or Michael, I can tell you of the weariness. the weariness of the constant flux of energy moving so fast it beats down like a constant weight. And I thank you for putting words to it, because now I am not alone and not "crazy".
And yet there are those I come in contact with who are paralyzed by this weight, by this weariness. I can still move. So I do my best to help them and in helping I am helped.
So much here, especially in America, focuses on us not asking for help but doing it ourselves. Yet in the asking for help we create it, it comes. More than money - which is after all just energy, is needed is someone to say "I care", to speak God's voice to us, to say "You're not alone here.", to say "I love you."
Someone to replenish the stores of Love that are what has been worn down and beat-up by the chaos, and what is really draining us is lack of love not lack of anything material.

The American Dream has not evaporated, it is coming into full force. It is the autonomy, individuality and uniqueness of each being. It is knowing we are whole, complete and wonderful as we are. We are developing inner knowledge, and outer ways of living in that knowledge. It is happening, it is not 'not happening'. Change is perceived immediately as difficult and almost impossible by the ego self, and this is the perception of the population at large especially when you talk of those who are aware at an intellectual level, as in 'lightworkers'. In truth, all are light workers and all are here to play their part, dark or light it really is all the same.
Those who are penniless and exhausted have come to a point where they are being nudged to look within from where all answers emerge.
Asking the channeler for answers is still an abbreviated way of finding the true solution for the channeler is human as they are and has no answers but for herself. Ironically, finding answers for the self only is the path to finding the answers for all of us, for 'our' problem. Those who selfishly found their way to the beach were doing just so. Those who helped the MS sufferer did their part, who is to say which is right and wrong, and who is selfish or who isn't. There can be no such judgement, and those who are guided to proceed alone are entitled and must do so. In this way, with each following the journey designed for themselves as we are indeed programmed to do, we will 'make it', if indeed we have to. Only the ego would say so. The heart is already there, we are doing fine and the answers will come to all at the exact right time. NO need to worry not for self, or for others. No need to mourn the passing of the dream as we are living the highest fulfillment of it already. Only the ego would argue any of these points.

I know its difficult to shift realities and to let go of the old and jump into the new without knowing where we are going.

As one dream disappears we have to create and manifest the new one, that is why we are here. We are promoting the following visualisation that will be of help if made daily:

First thing in the morning while you are still relaxed
Ground yourself, connect with our Mother Gaia and with Mother/Father God in the centre of the Galaxy. With your eyes closed picture a healthy planet, beautiful and harmonious, peaceful and loving.
Everyone has a place here to develop his or her highest potential, there is no competition and there is abundance. Everyone has all that they require to accomplish their higher purpose.
There is no disease. No death. Everyone has a place to inhabit that is harmonious with the planet. There is no police or government, they are no longer needed as we can self govern ourselves.
Add your own dreams here and feel the feeling of happiness and bliss that this creation is bringing into your life.
Ask for personal advice for the day ahead and finish with the following prayer:
May my day be guided by my higher self as I lift my vibration and consciousness; and full of love, laughter, joy, abundance, health and higher purpose expanding the light of the Universe.
May my path be smooth and clear and all that I do effortless and fun

The new dream is here, we just have to open to receive it by letting go our old expectations and by working on our own lack of trust. Miracles and synchronicity are happening every second everywhere we just have to open our inner eyes and tunne in.

In Love and Light

Celia,
I have worked as an energy and lightworker for more than 25 years now.
Sometimes, I feel we have been at this so long, we fail to recognize that our energetic creations are moving into the physical for global transformation. We need to start supporting our 'ground forces'.
Much love,
DeboraNovember 11, 2007
Dear Brother and Sisters,

I envision a day set aside by humanity to further the cause of world unity. A day embraced by individuals, communities, and nations throughout the world. A day to celebrate and rejoice in the rich cultural diversity of the human family. A day to help establish a foundation upon which future generations can build a world where differences are honored with respect and love. A day where we stand side-by-side, hand-in-hand and proclaim that we are one global family!

Please visit, aworldanthem.org to find the petition banner under the “purchase CD” button. Click this to read and sign the petition. I need your help to collect 1,000,000 signatures with all 192 nations represented. As soon as this is achieved, I will address the U.N. calling for a resolution to establish an internationally recognized “World Unity Day”. Please help me by getting as many people as you can to sign this petition.

Amen to that!!!!
(: ha ha...
but really,too often there is judgement in the message,which is tainted with one person's view of 'what ought to be'. the intention's are good,perhaps.
but it is true,that the dream of individuality and freedom is the 'true' american dream,that for decades was disguised as a material dream by those who would have us all believe that monetary wealth and accumulation of things was true freedom. The game is now over,and the true American Dream can now be born.I could not agree more with the post. Thankyou!

After finding that my comment & offer of assistance to provide housing for lightworkers was taken off this site, I had a revelation of the deceit and self sorcery that prevails in this metaphysical community. Propheteers, Your egos are deceiving you. Am I to believe that Jesus, Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Lady Theresa, Princess Di, and all the ACTIVE humanitarians past and present were serving their egos when there was really nothing to worry about after all? Was Schindler wasting his time when he saved a 1,000 Jews? Were the Righteous Gentiles of the 2nd world war worried for no reason about the hunted victims they hid in their homes at the potential expense of their own lives? Mario Savio, whose life was dismantled after his rise to call at UC Berkley, should he have just hung out on campus smoking pot and citing self righteous propaganda about personal responsibility and ascension? Should Wal Mart stop sending care packages to our soldiers in the middle east this holiday season? Should Amnesty International and Free Tibet close up shop and Om all day long? Jesus knocked over the tables of commerce in the temples for the same reason I write to you now. Love thy neighbor over thy ego...Love requires action & sacrifice sometimes.

Just a little note here to let you know that your comment was taken off automatically simply because was too long. It's an automatic action from the system. Sorry for that inconvenience. Now we have set the system to let people know the limit so nobody would have their comments deleted after they are posted.

with love,

Mariu

Thank you Mariu. I was devastated thinking I had been censored in that manner. I barely have 2 coins of my own to rub together yet I can't sleep most nights thinking of the suicidal thoughts some lightworkers are experiencing in these times. Please forgive my anger and expression of contempt. I'm hurting that I only have 2 hands and that many people are moving too much into their heads and forgetting that we must all roll up our sleeves and get in the thick of things. We have to treat the weakest on this planet with the utmost of compassion and lightworkers who are called to serve in this manner must be given care and consideration of a practical manner. We must uphold our disciples of love and light. I myself have been contemplating taking my own life because I feel the metaphysical community is turning into the new fundamentalism. Meaning we are forgetting that we do live in the material realm and that if we are only focusing on the Ascension, which is subject to each person's perspective, we are forgetting we are here in human form to have a human experience. Humans are susceptible to the realities of this realm. Can you imagine if the great humanitarians of this planet's history had sat in their sanctuaries simply visualizing?

You are welcome Katherine. Don' worry about your anger. I understand your point of view but at the same time as you just said you can't save all the whole world as you have just two hands. These times are intense indeed but we have to make peace with where we are and hope and dream about a better world in our hearts and hold that vision strongly and jump into action only when we feel really inspired to it not from a place of fear. We dont have to forget that all the people in this planet are magnificent and powerful beings and they choose the reality and their expressions. We have to respect them first and then if requested help. We can't see them as weak people that have no choice at all and that had bad luck. They are magnificent beings that's what we have to practice and remember. Dear Katherine, I do admire your big heart and your wanting to help and protect everyone who is in need but you have also to remember that the best gift you can give is your own happiness. If you are yourself in despair and feeling overwhelmed how can you help? We can help in many different ways. Sometime even just a smile can save a life. But if you are down how can you smile to someone who needs your smile today? :)I hug you tight! Love :smitten:

I appreciate your time & thoughts. My big concern presently is that our views & beliefs are often limited to our own experience of life. A Vegan friend of mine pointed out that it is privilige to be able to choose our food in N. America, that choosing not to eat animals & byproducts is a luxury few on the planet know. It's the same with manifestation. N. Americans have an education, time & awareness to contemplate our thoughts, meanwhile large populations don't. I've lived in 5 countries & am a famous personality & stage performer in Europe, making my outreach vast and varied. This career has allowed me to personally touch thousands of people with all very valid points of view on life & spirituality that differ greatly from mine. My fan base stretches my heart & view. They teach me that I know little other than my own experience & perspective. The poorest have invited me into their homes & fed me. Others follow my tours and send me mail & care packages during my breaks uplifting me. I am too tired to keep touring & retired with little cash. I literally cried out to God yesterday for direction and was reminded that my fan base has talents, resources and abundance to be mobilized! My despair has turned to hope again. Thank you. xoxo
