CHAPTER ONE
LIVING ON EARTH
My dreams of late have been about dancing.They often take place in a beautiful park surrounded by old growthtrees, flowers in full bloom and hundreds of birds singing. Itsjust another ideal day to be alive on Earth.
In this dream I see myself acting like anandroid - very predictable, mechanical, and looking a little out ofplace in this setting. I look at my surroundings and begin to labeland identify everything as being separate from myself. This seemsto make me feel more comfortable with this environment. Ive beenprogrammed to perceive physical reality as being the only reality.Ive been taught to view life as a series of opposing forces ofgood and evil, light and dark. I learned to put my mind to thegrindstone, work hard, and for that I am rewarded with a vacationonce a year for being a good person. Life inside this android selffeels safe. I know what is real, what is expected of me and how toaccomplish what needs to be done. In general, I am also kind andrespectful of others, but I feel uncomfortable if I am asked toparticipate in anything I havent learned. My android self hasbegun to feel very stressed out lately with the responsibility ofkeeping this known world intact. Compounding this dilemma is agrowing, annoying feeling that I am also bored. In the silence ofmy mind, my android self calls for help.
In the distance, I notice someone walkingtowards me. Its a beautiful woman walking barefoot who begins tofreely dance the closer she gets. Her movements are graceful,passionate, and flowing. She begins to twirl, leans back, andlaughs as her hair flows within the currents of a gentle breeze.Suddenly she leaps into the air. It appears for a moment that sheis suspended in time while she gently turns her gaze at me. Myandroid self is spell bound by her presence and very confused. Asshe approaches me the confusion turns into fear. Although herfeatures are very unique, her face is identical to my own.
She begins to dance in circles around mybody, gently touching and caressing my face. Suddenly she stops,looks directly into my android eyes, and whispers into my ear - Ilove you! Dance with me! A rush of new feelings overwhelm myandroid self as she takes my hand and begins to guide me in aseries of slow, deliberate movements. I keep tripping over my ownfeet and begin to feel embarrassed. She holds my head up whilestaring deeply into my eyes and proclaims again - I love you! Howcould this be? How could I be looking at myself and yet havenothing in common with this dancer? My android self stops moving,looks back at her and asks - who are you? Her eyes begin to blazewith such a passion unlike anything my android self has ever seen.At first it frightens my android self, then suddenly her eyesbecome as still as a lake, reflecting a deep and profoundcompassion for the state of my android self. She turns to me andproclaims, I am called consciousness. I reside within all ofcreation, including you! You called me. I offer myself to be a partof your life.
I suddenly wake up and begin to laugh. Okay,I get it, I say to anyone who might be listening. I believe many ofus share this dream and also struggle with allowing our ownconsciousness to be a part of our conditioned reality. These arevery exciting times to be living on Earth. The changes that aretaking place can be very unsettling, but within each of us residesthe solution to all of our problems.
The heart of this book represents amultifaceted relationship I share with a spiritual family calledthe Family of Michael. It has become my passion and joy to sharethis relationship in our workshops and sessions. At the heart ofthis family resides the presence of archangel
Michael. He offers his hand in friendship andhis heart in communion to any human being to help heal theseparation between Earth, our soul families, and source energy.
I dedicate this book to you, dear reader. Youare the ones who are willing to embrace and integrate consciousnessinto your life. You are the ones who will inspire others toreconnect with their own soul nature. It takes tremendouscompassion, integrity, and a very good sense of humor to experiencelife outside our conditioned story.
