Souza, you have quoted my grandma's favorite scripture, I had to respond. When I get home this evening, I wil definitely be going to your blog to read it.
For me being a part of this forum has made me recognize and realize that the only truth that matters is your own. People can scream and shout to the top of their voices that this is the only right way, but until we evaluate and investigate and formulate our own truths, nothing can convince us to follow. The power lies within each of us. To me that is what free will is about. We all have it.
For many years, the world has been awaiting the dawning of the year 2012 with anxiety and even with fear. I will admit that I have had my own moments of indecisiveness of what it would mean. But my mind changed considerably following the events on 6/25/2009. I have never followed any other death hoaxes and never thought that any death would give rise to me becoming an active participant. However, "...Michael Jackson, dead of an apparent heart attack in his home after having a full practice on the night before" did the trick. No freaking way. He was murdered. That was my first resolve. But even that didn't satisfy. An inner voice so sweet kept whispering to me that this is not it. Now comes the news, the pictures, the Staples Center, the family, the movie, and alarms started sounding off so loud in my head that I couldn't eat, sleep, or rest. I had to find some answers. Was I losing my mind? Why would I even question this? There was a memorial service, a casket, usually always enough proof that someone has reached then end of their journey. I could not accept it. Not this time.
Being here has made me open my other eyes. It has forced me to listen to my own inner truth and follow it, regardless.
So what does 2012 mean and Michael's words of wisdom to us for saving the planet and the four years time span? To me, it means that NO the world won't end unless we allow it to happen. There are things that we can do to change it; the main one being to find our own truth.
I have always believed that Michael was an empath. His life number 7 is the greatest indicator of that. He sees and feels the pain and suffering of others, and he allows their pain to flow through him. It is apparent that he has always been able to do that. Even as a child he felt the pain of hunger and poverty of children in distant lands so intimately that it would bring him to tears. He knew even then that he was special and had been given a gift. We all have gifts, but Michael channeled his so precisely that it became the essence of him. He made things happen. He used what was freely given to him to ease the suffering of others and to absolve their fear and pain. He took it onto himself. How unselfish. For these and many other wonderful examples, I will always believe that he was here for a reason, a greater reason. I believe in God. I believe in His promise that he would send a child to lead us. And for me, Michael Jackson fulfills that promise in every aspect of his being. That is MY truth.
2012 or the number 5 equates to excitement and never a dull moment. Michael told us that we only had 4 years. He didn't say it just for a closing statement in a movie. That statement meant something to him. He had a vision.
From those words to this day, I honestly believe that his message was to purposely awaken us spiritually. No one on this forum appears hopeless that the world will end come December 21st. Instead, we are looking towards a future that promises to be even greater than the past, with Michael being an essential part of it.
As we get closer to the culmination of these four years we have seen institutions, i.e. the government, the church, the media, the medical field, the music industry, the list goes on, stripped of much of their absolution, ousted for their incompetence, and tried & convicted for their fallacies. Michael obviously knew, witnessed by his long term planning, that their fall was imminent. And because of his natural, inbred compassion for people he also wanted us to be knowledgeable and gave us ample time and enough insight to allow us who believed to seek the truth. He guided us, unseen, to this place and in my heart I feel that he continues to guide.
I don't know if Michael will ever come back to the public arena. I don't know what his plans are or how he will re-connect and to be honest, it doesn't really matter. Just knowing that in his own time and in the manner he sees fit to make his presence known that he will is enough for me. Knowing is the gift, the light that shines in my heart and brings me inner peace. There is no more darkness. I have faith that it is what it is and that is all it's meant to be. Michael's truth is the wisdom and the light for me. I have total trust and faith in him.
2012 is not the world's end, as was 2009 not Michael's. But they both symbolize a new awakening in a new world of love, light and universal consciousness. I hope I live to see this new world, the one Michael has always known would dawn. I KNOW it will be beautiful. And this 6ths sense of mine tells me that we have Michael by way of God to thank for that.
