Greetings of love and peace!

(Sorry for the English -- I'm fully fluent in Finnish but more comfortable at the moment writing in English. )

I was born in Jyväskylä in 1984, have lived most of my young life (about 17 years) in Canada, returned to my native land in 2005, and currently reside in Pieksämäki. I have been going through a quite intense "awakening" process since last spring. At that time I decided to cut short my studies in Forestry which I had started in 2006, because it was clearly not resonating with me anymore. I wanted to pursue a career as a priest in the state church, and I applied to study Theology at the universities of Helsinki and Joensuu. However, it was not to be: my religious belief system under the banner of conservative Laestadianism could not hold up to the inspection I was subjecting it to, and I, as they say, "lost my faith." After that, everything was fair game. I had dedicated myself to seeking Truth. These past six months have been quite an eventful, exciting ride as my (mostly online) investigations have led me to expand my view of the world and myself in ways I never thought possible. Instrumental figures have been G. Edward Griffin, Ron Paul, Michael Tsarion, David Icke, Alex Jones, Jeff Rense, George Green, Steve Willner, David Wilcock, and of course our own Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy.

The journey has not been purely intellectual. I have also begun to apply myself to spiritual growth in my day-to-day life. I am a reiki healer (thanks to Kirsi Voutilainen's Reiki 1 course) and I use reiki on myself every night. I also regularly meditate, run, and eat healthy, with the exception of the last two weeks' disruption.

Now I come to a point where it's very much "do or die." I quit my job as a "contact center agent" (i.e. telemarketer) at the beginning of this month due to a violent inner reaction against the dishonesty and shallowness of what I was involved with. I was selling insurance while I knew full well that the whole modern insurance industry is based on fraud and false perceptions. And there came that breaking point, where I just couldn't make myself do it anymore. I knew in my heart that now is the time to start doing what I'm really supposed to be doing here.

Riding a high wave of confidence and trust in my own ability to create a new reality, I not only quit my job, but canceled my rental agreement as well. So I put myself in this situation where I now have literally no idea where to go, and time is running out. The past two weeks have been consumed in a bout of spiritual darkness and mental-emotional malaise. I've been unable to stop worrying and start doing. The signs I'm now picking up tell me quite clearly that this is the moment to pick myself up and start believing again.

The bottom line is this: I need a place to go by the end of September. I am a very intelligent, talented young man (or so they all tell me ). I have a background in Forestry, so I know how to do everything involved in drawing up a sound forest management plan. I have a broad work history since 2000. I've done everything from berry picking to demolition and construction, wood products processing, landscaping, logging, firewood harvesting, hospital volunteer work, and even pizza making & delivery. I am not afraid of work!

So if there's anyone out there who lives in a rural area, could use some help around the place, and has room for one smallish-sized (174 cm, 57 kg) young man and his few belongings, please contact me. I would be very interested in contributing to building a self-sustaining community in any way I can.
