then I'll say goodbye - Jean Of The Dead - 7 Year Itch - My Flavourate


And if you've got no love for me then I'll say goodbye
Addendum to the devil in the detail experience...

The Devil in question, more of a minor demon as it was a friend of mine, although at the time as explicit an example of devilish behaviour as I've ever witnessed. I wanted to go to sleep for a while, have the tunes turned down (if not off ;) and basically go with the experience. However my friend decided and I'm fairly certain it was not out of concern for my wellbeing but a selfish desire to have some company, to pester me for 40 minutes trying to 'wake me up'. I had asked nicely and decided although it was very tempting to get angry, to just ignore him until he went away.

You see if someone accesses my stubborn streak, if you get my back up, as easily swayed and suggestible as I used to be there is nothing in this world that can change my mind if it is made up. I did do lots of great work on that streak whilst in Spain the last two springs, coming back always seems to let it's tendrils and those of all my other bad habits try to find a gap in my defences again.

The perverse thing is that without this persons attempts to drag me back from where I wanted to be, I would never have had the sense of huge relief when it was over, or the satisfaction of experiencing great duress and coming out the other side. You see he came to represent an old paradigm, everything that is wrong with this world and for that time being, THAT TIME BEING is what I was, a being almost out of time, out of causality, casuistry...

Just like to take this opportunity to thank all of the other miserable bastards and to be perfectly frank the many many cunts I've known who have taught me so much about how I don't want to act, what I don't want to be, made it impossible for me to bear certain situations that I would rather not have had to deal with in the first place.

So thanks for that...

Jean Of The Dead

I did what was expected, I fitted in, got a job turned it into a career, worked my way up, earned a very respectable salary and then I did the same things that everyone else does in this crazy fucked up world, all the stupid acceptable, fur brained half baked shit that you get up to, I bought stuff, pissed my money up the wall, went on foreign holidays where everyone speaks English eats British food with European people.

It's a wonder to me that I managed to stick 10 years of it when I felt like Shaun of the Dead.

It's even worse now because the more I wake up the easier it is to see how asleep everyone else is, preoccupied by very consuming passions but nonetheless distractions with a limited shelf life. A half life it was, and now when I'm around those type of people and trust me it's only for short periods as that's all I can take, I try not to make them feel too uncomfortable but it's so easy to wind up the numbnutses, to make them aware of how closed minded, how set in their ways, going down a one way street to nowhere'sville...

It's a bit like Shaun and his mates wandering to the Winchester, arms outstretched, with a vacant stare, uttering only ooooooeeeeeeuuuuuurrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhh

7 Year Itch

You think about this, seven years ago every cell in your body was completely different to the ones that now make up your entire physique. Each and every one has been replaced in the last seven years so that now you are a completely different person. But more than that, you're a different person to who you were last year, last month, last week, yesterday, even a second ago. Always in flux, a state of transformation...

So if you insist on seeing me as the person I used to be, more fool you.

I sometimes wonder if you are determined to do so because me being a fuckup made you feel less inadequate and better about yourself ;)

I don't abuse alcohol anymore, I'm not depressed and lonely enough to do so and thankfully don't hang around with the wrong influences, haven't done for years. Which has lead to a cessation of cars being crashed and all sorts of other wholly regrettable behaviour. So keep on keeping on and practise the shocked look on your face when it becomes clear I want nothing to do with someone who persists in maintaining a false viewpoint, a negative image of me...

It's actually more complicated than seven years and every cell, surprise surprise ;) as brain cells aren't replaced (although they may regenerate according to some studies) other cells change at different rates...

Reading up on it this response I found on the internet seemed to make the most sense...

As I understand it, the idea wasn't about cells, it was about atoms.

With the rate of turnover of cells and the constant repair of cells, the longest atoms were supposed to stay in your body was 7 years.

Many atoms, such as those in your lungs are lost every breath, so this “7 years” was a maximum. Also, it would have been a statistical calculation.

You loose x carbons and y hydrogens in n years, therefore your body has used enough carbon and hydrogen to replace itself.

The calculation would have involved all the elements, probably as an average uptake and excretion thing.

If I find a reference for it i will let you know :-)

How I Feel - Vicky Munn saved my life and got me back with my ex wife...


A mate of mine once revealed that he'd been asked this question:-
"Why do you hang around with Jon, after all he's pretty weird?"

I have to admit to being quite taken aback by this and affected by it greatly for several days. In fact it comes up every now and then when I'm feeling low and I ask myself the same question.

Only about everyone else ;) Why should I want to spend time with you?

Why do I spend my time, and that's what it is, my time, with the people that I do?

The answer for me is always another question or twelve...

Which go along the lines of:-

What can I do for them?
How can I make their life better?
Can I be a positive influence in their lives?

That's all I've ever wanted to be...

But then I find myself with those people and I think of all the things I've done to improve myself, the ways in which I have tried to make amends for the errors I've made in the past, the habits that annoy people that I've made a concious (and that's the key word here) a concious effort to curtail, the times that I've been the bigger person and let them have their way.

The truth is that I don't like confrontation, never have, probably never will.

I look upon even conversation as a confrontation at times.

You keep picking the same fights, starting the same arguments.

I thought that years of having me in your life would have taught you at least that!

If you become a nuisance, if all we do is find ways of killing time...

I become bored, with you, with me.

And I move on, sharpish,

as John Evans the landlord of the Kings Arms in Didmarton used to say. He once declared to a friend of mine (Greg Hawkins ;) that "If I find out you aren't old enough to be drinking in here, I'm going to stick my boot up your arse to the eighteenth lacehole." What a terribly nice chap, always used to threaten us with his caged 'frankly by then arthritic' Alsatian SHADOW! ;) His wife Hazel would walk through the bar without an iota of irony, with your frozen dinner in her hand from the freezer to the kitchen. "Hey that's my piece of fish she's got in her puddy."

Thankyou Vicky Munn, the hygienist at the dentist in Malmesbury and to anyone else who has said something once that I remember to this day...

Vicky (I hope I've remembered your name correctly) once told us a story at Primary School.

At our school you had classes which could contain pupils of varying ages, not quite the original excellent idea of placing individuals in a group based on ability rather than age (ala Little House on the Prairie etc). But still, it meant that you were always learning from people a little bit more experienced and older than you.

The story was about someone who had lost a limb, in fact they'd lost their right or left arm (or hand, it WAS a long time ago so I forget). This lead to them having to find a way to do all the usual things only with one hand. I soon started practising using my other hand and my other foot when it came to things I would normally do with the right ones.

Twenty years later I scored a goal with my left foot from outside the box.

I'm not ambidextrous and ambifootrous but not far off ;)

I learnt to juggle which also uses both halves of the brain at once.

You see something so stupid and uninteresting to most people has led to a big change in me.

I'm grateful as this thing may seem trivial but united the two halves of my brain.

I'm undoubtedly better of for having heard that one.

-

The hygienist mentioned something the one time I visited her, about the way that people clean their teeth. About the fact that rather than working up and down with the toothbrush to work round and around and to always end your brushing by stroking the top gums down and the bottom ones up with the head of the brush to promote growth.

Little thing but I don't have the smile of a thirty eight year old now do I? No is the answer you are looking for ;)

-

These might not be the most profound examples but you get the idea?

So what if anything does this have to say about life?

It says that you need to be aware that the smallest things, that may and usually do seem insignificant at the time, can have the greatest effects. SO PAY ATTENTION

Pas a pas se va luenh...Step by Step I progress

I had it tattooed on my back

I live by that

Love
Jon

As for me being weird? The description doesn't bother, to me 'normal' wud be a bigger insult ;)

Devil in the Detail - Mayan Messages


I had an extraordinary experience the other evening...

I had fasted from 10am till 7:30 pm (except for a yoghurt at 2pm to get the juices flowing).

In graphic visceral detail I was shown just how intricately this existence is put together, interwoven interlocking parts all designed to become the most alluring and successful illusion, tailor made to convince each and every personality.

I felt drawn above as if every molecule were being attracted to a super massive magnet, a giant plughole, an F5 Tornado in the vacuum of space, emanating from a finite point like a crack in the fabric of reality. The entrance way to a new state, a new beginning, a new dimension.

As I let go all I wanted to do was fall asleep and wake up on the other side. Allow myself to be transmogrified, converted, realigned, reformed. Sieved and processed into a creamy mash of energy leaving behind the skin and bones of Matter and the denser emotions, leaving only Love.

A knot in the pit of my stomach or was it the very depths of my heart held me back, like there was something left to do, the time wasn't right yet, I wasn't ready, we're not ready, but be ready. An attachment left to be undone, unwound, released from the tendrils that tie us down, hold us back.

I so wanted to leave a realm that for a very long time has provided everything in terms of distraction but felt like just another old joke. Overused, no longer funny, outdated...

Looking over my life, my interests and those shared by others, all now in context as a devilish attempt to provide a reason to stay, in the same place as the same being, because it's scared.

Those things that haven't loved can't bear to be alone but can't lose themselves to the love that would heal them and let them be a part of us again. So we have to make our decision, our definition, our position.

I was asked to hate, I was asked to stay and fear and threatened with torments and pleasures beyond description but I would not, I could not, I held out for the love, held out hope for it to save me.

I laid there waiting for the blow to the head, kill me now, I refuse to face you, I will never renounce love.

Around me the veil fell, the ages ran backwards and I was in the company of Krsna.

Emotional instinct tells the original story and that the rest were just retellings.

The names changed to protect the innocent and the guilty through time.

There was innocent love, jealous love, forbidden love, true love.

All the oldest characters, archetypes, principles, morals...

I could feel the presence and weight of time & history.

The longer you carry something the heavier it gets.

We've had the Monkey on our backs for too long.

From the Cradle to the Grave means much now.

The Earth the Cradle the End of Time the grave.

It's only the Natural Death of Father and Son.

Action and reaction, cause and effect over.

For the record, there are no such things as god and the devil only the temptation and choice to do good or evil within each and every individual...

---

It was the best practice for what is surely only a matter of months away now.

Try to convince yourself that nothing is happening it will get harder until you can't.

Or easier once you let go of preconceptions.

Attachments are habits. - Connections are behaviour.
Habits are about maintenance. - Connections are about LIFE.

I only came back because well if this is it then I want to keep making the most of the last two summers, two springs, two autumns and a winter...

I'm here to make love our reality
I'm here to make love
I'm here

Light &
Love

An excerpt from the Mayan Messages Blog

MAYAN MESSAGE DAY 52

Masters in the Making

When a human is fully conscious, following the path of the lightworker and striving for unity through unconditional love, all things are available. There have been many Masters who have walked the Earth in human form. These Be-ings were able to do amazing things: heal the sick, resurrect the dead, teleport, manifest objects from thin air, etc. Within each of you is the ability to be a Master. It is through facing your fears and learning to love all Beings unconditionally that your gifts will be restored to you. True unconditional love comes from understanding that each and every one of you came from the same Source and will eventually return to the same Source.

There is no one to forgive; there is nothing that is lesser or greater than another. There is no place to go. There is nothing that needs to be done. Each of you is here to experience events and share them with those who are interested. “I know I have a mission. I know I came here for a reason. The Earth is in dire straits and is on the edge of disaster ecologically. People are killing people. Food sources are being tainted. Governmental systems are corrupt. How can you say there is nothing to be done?” This is what may be going through your mind. From the Realms above, from where we sit, all is well. We have the added bonus of knowing that in essence, there is no time, there is no space, there are no things. Eventually, all will return to the higher Dimensions of love and light.

What you have forgotten when you entered this Realm is that all is well. You chose to come into this Earth to experience its wonders. The tricky part is that your spiritual memory is lost as soon as you enter the density of your planet. Before incarnating, many of you have been certain, over and over, that you will not lose your memory. Yet over and over, you do. We have no control over this, for this was the way the Creators, of which many of you were the original creators, set it up. It was a new experiment and it is now coming to the end of its time. There are many from all ends of the universe who have come to help you get out of this cycle of karmic indebtedness. Through the years, many have gotten caught up in the eddy when they jumped into the pool to save you.

What is happening now is that many children are incarnating with full memory from whence they came. You label many of these children as indigo, crystal or rainbows. There are also many who have never walked the Earth before who are arriving as walk-ins. These souls have contracted to take over the bodies of souls who wish to leave the Earth plane. Some of these souls come in as fully realized Masters with abilities that astound you. They are psychically capable, with abilities of telekinesis, mind reading, prophecy and healing. Please do not deify them or put them on pedestals. They are simply in remembrance of their abilities. Unlike you, they have not had their memories erased. As each of you begins to have more understanding of unconditional love, one by one, your abilities will return to you.

When you chose to incarnate on Earth, you were given specific DNA codes that allowed you to live as a human. Now that this era is coming to a close, you have the opportunity to re-code your DNA in order to move into higher Realms of light. Each time you have an experience of love and integrate this understanding, your DNA changes. There is much data now available that can explain this to you. Your sciences are on the verge of understanding how the universe works. There will be no time available for those with dark agendas to receive this information and develop it in order to control those of you who wish to move closer to the light. Their dark agendas have been allowed to transpire for eons, but that time has now come to a close. What is most important is that you use your Mastery skills in a loving way. If you choose to do as the dark-siders do and use your skills to gain control over others, you will not be able to ascend with the planet. This time is coming very soon.

Take time to look at the dark energies within you, those shadows that are less than loving and kind. Clean out the cobwebs by facing your fears, apologizing to others and taking responsibility for your actions. You cannot rise vibrationally as long as you harbor dark feelings towards others and blame them for your station in life.

Dark thoughtforms glop together. Love flows freely. In order to raise your vibration, you must lighten up and let loose of all dark thoughts, words and actions. Set your intentions to live the life of your dreams and visualize the utopian society you wish to dwell in.

Do you want peace in the world? Then learn to be peaceful in every situation. Do you want there to be less disposable trash in the world? Then recycle and refuse to purchase plastic items or those that are detrimental to the earth. Do you want there to be fresher air? Then figure ways that you can walk or ride a bicycle to get to your places of employment. Are you upset over the food additives and strange things being put into your food sources? Then grow your own food. Are you upset over corruption in your governmental offices? Did you do your homework before you voted someone into office? Do you even vote?

There is much whining and groaning among you. Yet only a few are demonstrating and choosing to take the steps to reach their desired goals. As a society, you have become lazy. You now feel cornered and hopeless because there is so much imbalance in every sector of your existence.

As a nation, you have given your power to others. It is now time to reclaim your power. We have sent many Emissaries to help you. However, there are many of you who are still in hopes that a savior will come along and get you out of the mess that you have created. Many would respond by saying, “I didn’t create this mess!” I would challenge you by saying that, “Yes, indeed, you did allow this to happen, for many of you have lived many lifetimes on Earth. Each lifetime, including this one, you have left negative imprints every time you engaged in a negative emotion, conscious thought or spoken word. You are now personally reaping what you have collectively sown.” That is what I mean by accepting responsibility for your actions: in your personal life, in your governmental institutions and in all aspects of human living. You can continue to whine or you can start cleaning up the environment, within your mind and body.

Again, we say there is no-thing to do. You simply have to be. Take time to ponder on this. Imagine what would happen if in this very moment, each of you on Earth chose to be silent for five minutes. During this silence, you accepted your role in all of the events that are now occurring on Earth. What if each one of you decided that from this moment forward, you would treat all with kindness, respect and unconditional love? Can you imagine what would happen?

There is enough food on the planet at this moment to feed all. There are enough seeds to plant to continue to feed all. There are enough clothes on the Earth to clothe all. There are enough ways to continue to clothe all that would not create imbalance on Earth. There is enough technology and money available to no longer need to rape the Earth of her precious gems. There are enough houses already in existence to shelter all. There are enough resources to build homes where they are needed. It is your greed and need to control or be “one up” from each other that has created the imbalances on Earth.

I repeat myself again, there is no-thing that needs to be done, other than to wake up and lighten up. We encourage you to ponder these things and to find ways to create the world you want from the inside out. It is time to stop pointing fingers at each other and to take responsibility for your own actions and inactions. Each of you are Masters. It is how you handle these abilities that will determine the outcome of your experience on Earth. She is shifting. She is ascending. She is moving on, either with you or without you. She welcomes each of you to join her in this ascension process. Which will you choose, the dark or the light Path? We take leave of you and hope that you will ponder these things and join us on the Path to en-light-enment!

Selamet! Eb 13
