SHTF is the little things

[Snowflower]

My whole life is falling apart. We got the Colorado Open Records Act going and read through their files. Their intention is to get rid of us. Words like "found Appalachia," and "half a dozen families will be displaced." They started planning their upcoming raid last September. Finally wrote us that letter in January. All of the non-family community and my husband moved away from the mountain two weeks ago. Pretty big stuff, right?

But, I had been managing to hold myself together. Anyway.

Until this morning. My refrigerator has stopped working. I can't find the ice blocks to freeze in the freezer and put in a cooler. All by itself, I could handle such a small worry, no problem. But I sit here this morning paralyzed. It's just too much.

SHTF isn't a huge catastrophe the whole world feels all at once. It is a hundred thousand billion little things happening to humans all over the planet. Like a slow tide creeping onto the beach that just keeps coming. Eventually it swallows the world. Without being recognized as a threat until it's too late.

It's those days when it all just seems too much, where you find yourself sitting with your head in your hands, numb from the enormity of your many problems, unable to form a coherent thought. Those are the days that really matter. Those are the days when you decide to keep going or give up. Keep going! Always just keep going! Gambatte! !

[Delight]

Just want to let you know i read your post and understand that feeling of paralysis. Wish I had some magic remedy to offer for the pressure. Anyway, I am thinking of you today. Maggie

What is the Colorado Open Records Act?

[Snowflower]

It's like the federal freedom of information act but at the state level.

Did you take advantage of all the snow and store water for filtration? Any neighbors that will let you plug in for a monthly price?

[Snowflower]

We have all the water we could possibly want. Two wells, a lake, 4 or 5 springs, one developed. We have comfortable, safe homes. We have fertile, healthy soil for gardening, clean air, untreated water, solar electricity. Neighbors are more than a mile away. At issue is septic systems ($20,000 each for five houses) and building permits/land use zoning (fees, licenses, permit payments totaling around $50,000 for everything.)

If they had continued on the track we've been on with them for the past four years of negotiation, they are required by law to give us time to solve problems. But they started planning last September, wrote us in .january, demanding we vacate homes within 30 days and tear homes down, of course we filed an appeal. So they have attacked us with "health and safety" instead. No due process, no notice, no time to solve anything, just get out of your "unsafe" home.

I have a geo metro. It's a bit tight, but I figured out how to put a narrow bed into it by taking out the passenger seat. My two little dogs can sleep in there with me. The cat will have to stay here. I'll be back every day to take care of sheep, goats, ducks, and chickens, so will see her daily. It will be pretty hard, especially with crutches for walking. I'm just sitting here in my rocking chair today. Can't handle anymore. The thrice damned refrigerator was my last straw.

[Tesla_WTC_Solution]

Snow,

have you contacted any federal-level agencies to ask for help with your situation?

is it possible that the move by these locals is motivated by their interest in your real estate?

I hope your daughter is still helping, and wonder why more of the Colorado PA folks aren't saying anything -- it's pretty odd.

Running Deer, that is simply lovely. I want to copy it and do a bead tapestry of it. Snowflower is one of my spirit guides. I asked her if I could take her name when I legally changed my name 23 years ago. She gave me permission.

The spirit in the mountain here is waiting. I wonder what she is waiting for. I feel shut off from listening. Perhaps the time for walking into wilderness is coming. My rational bodymind wonders how I could possibly do this when I walk in constant pain and cannot walk without crutches.

SnowFlower, I love the name and how you got it. Same with me. Princess RunningDeer was a guide of mine in the early 1970’s. The only one who ever gave me their name. She’s Native American and dressed in white deer buckskin because of her status. So, with her blessing… I changed my avatar name from "WhiteCrowBlackDeer" to “RunningDeer”.

If I may…’crutches’ there’s a metaphor in there somewhere. They can be a tool used for movement when one is fearful of forward movement. (Just a thought.) For me, when I see from the larger perspective, I can then bust out of the mind-think.

I hope some of what’s covered below will help unravel the knots in your life.:hug:

Our body gives us signals. “Heal Your Body,” by Louise L. Hay is a book that often confirms impressions I get (or over look). Maybe some of these will help bring to the surface where to begin to sort out the healing priorities.

The list is based on some of your descriptors like: paralysis, shut off from listening, and legs.

Ears = Represent the capacity to hear.
Antidote = I hear with love.

Antidote = I listen to the Divine and rejoice at all that I am able to hear. I am one with all.

Paralysis = fear, terror. Escaping a situation or person. Resistance.
Antidote = I am one with all life. I am safe and I am totally adequate for all situations.

Leg Problems

- Upper = Holding on to old childhood traumas.
Antidote = They were doing the best they could with the understanding, awareness and knowledge they had. I set them free.

I've thought this myself, Sunflower. My life is falling apart, it will if I let it, so I have to make my life about something else to save it. The energy is wild at the moment, a lot of things coming to a head, it seems. I've just spent the last few days walking through hell, I'm still numb, still trying to get off my knees, to get out. It pushes us to be the only part of us that can't be touched, the consciousness, the I am. This isn't fun and it's harder than I ever imagined but we're here and I refuse to give up. Uncanny, what you said, about not recognising the threat until it's too late. I have spent the last few days looking at my life, where I am, this world, and I think to myself, wow, how did I walk into the belly of the beast without realising I was doing it? You are not alone, just know that. Never forget, nobody can touch the real us...ever.

That is SO TRUE! The more real we get the more unreal the world gets! So maybe, with both our worlds falling apart, we should join forces and forge a new world for ourselves, eh? How d'ya like the Colorado Rockies?

Yeah, it seems to be inescapable mechanics. Consider our forces joined. <3 The Colorado Rockies don't sound too shabby at all. :)

Hang in Ladies of Strength.........you are on your way with accepting the state of paralysis. You are quietly building strength for the next step.

Something will be coming to move you and when it does we won't see you for dust.............and I will eat my words if this is not your history.

You both have too much on the ball to stay stuck for long so be where you are and get ready as the energy of change is coming and I place my bet on you both being CHANGE MASTERS!!

[Mike Gorman]

I do not know anything about the laws concerning your property - but lots of people use those composting toilets around the world, they use natural bacteria and produce usable compost from human solid waste
perfectly clean product. Can you look into alternatives rather than old fashioned septic tanks? I'm thinking there are always legal defenses and alternatives in these matters - is there a non-mainstream attorney in the area
or advice bureau you can see, or look up the law online - it just seems to me you have options here.

[Delight]

I have been thinking of you smiling in your home. I am seeing your world restored even better and more suitable to exactly who you are now.

I see that there has been suggestion to continue seeking attention to the justice of your situation. Though I have no way of knowing all that you have done, I would personally continue to be very squeaky....

.....AND look at my inner attitude to life because IMO no matter how hard (or soft) the experiences we have now, the main point is establishing the connection to our inner worth.

For some reason I just cannot accept the idea that there is a REAL threat outside any of us but there is change. There is opportunity for growth because we asked for growth and expansion.

I am not in your shoes but the rocks in my own shoes hurt. The details are not that important as I thoroughly accept..."circumstances don't matter, only state of being matters". Everything is changing and I am involved in my own experience and can create alterations when I realize what role I have played and what I prefer.

To learn my own role in what has been experienced plus learning that everything is malleable...not hard and fast is vital to me and really makes the SHTF details only grist. If I believed I am a victim, that everything happens to me, that the world is a cruel place....that would be an idea that would make me sick IMO. The BIG IDEA we hold is really really important. My big idea is that everything is conspiring in our favor. Maggie

Don't be fooled by the first few seconds in this video....

Gnostic, Francis, I didn't respond to your post earlier and I apologize for that. If my daughter had read it, she would be packing her bags! Visiting Ireland is in the top position of her bucket list. It's the elves I think - she longs to stand on the ground where they make their homes. Thank you for your generosity of spirit.

Galaxy Horse, I have recently learned that the county has approved commercial composting toilets. They have specifics like, must be vented outside, etc. that we don't have, but I think it's worth a fight against instant "safety" condemnation. I intend to have hard copy documentation of such approval on hand when they show up.

They are more worried about my electrical system. They have gotten the idea, from a photo a woman took behind my back and without my permission while she was in my house, that I'm living in squalor and imminent danger of burning my house down. What the idiot failed to find out because she made an instant judgment and didn't bother to ask, was that the solar system components in that electric cabinet had been being worked with, so all the covers were off the boxes.

I'm a little better this morning. I'll tackle the refrigeration problem now and just keep plodding on getting ready for invasion. The official date is now April 3rd.

Bravo my friend NO truer words spoken it IS EVERYTHING....not just humans ALL SPECIES are suffering a GREAT DEAL....The Meta IS the Mega

[grannyfranny100]

While you deal with all this stuff, here's some tunes to lighten your load W0CBzKfvA80

[Snowflower]

Thank you, franny. I have enjoyed listening this morning. CD7, this realization has been a paradigm shift for me. Actually, I'm still expecting that at some point in time, there will be an earth-changing event. But, a major part of the process of collapse, is the individual collapse of personal lives.

I've been listening to an interview between Alex Jones and David Icke this morning, and it is crystallizing a notion I've been having about a more proactive stance I can take in regard to county imprecations. I'm heading in the direction of not taking this as a victim, lying down and waiting for the hammer to fall, but more in the line of standing up and taking a stand. Now, I realize that they have more guns. They have the power to wipe the earth with my body. So, I don't want to be stupid and stand in front of the firing squad shouting at them to shoot me. But I have figured out a proactive stance I can take that might mitigate the disaster enough to allow me to continue living. So far, we have managed to get the "inspection" put off by more than a month since it was first threatened. We now have a scheduled date on April 3. That is a lot less winter to have to live through if we are homeless than if they had shown up at the end of February!

I have also purchased the "Hands on Healing" CDs by William Bengston, and have been practicing the technique. Effectively, what he is proposing is a powerful positive imaging technique. This has to be the most powerful imaging system I've ever heard about. I have the filmstrip running in the back of my mind even as I'm typing this. My image regarding the county is of a circular bubble surrounding our land - and us - and the message is "we are safe from government." I did have a simple dome over the land at first, and then realized the mistake I had made in the imaging. I had the message of "we will be safe from..." and realized after a day of that, that by doing it in future tense I had put it off to always be in the future. So, when I shifted the message to "we are safe..." I also shifted the image.

I had an amazing demonstration of the success of the technique the first day I tried it. I can't say what that was here, but it was so astonishing and so immediate that it convinced me of the power of this technique as nothing else could have. I haven't tried an actual healing session yet. I'll get there, once I manage to get myself out of the way enough.

[Jean-Marie]

Beautiful Snowflower! I have been putting a golden dome over my family, over my home, over my community for many years! and yes, WE are SAFE!

A great deal of my frustration is the NEEDLESSSSSSS suffering tht is taking place on so many levels........I personally do not think a CHANGE has to mean a collapsein personal lives....IF ANYTHING a true constructive change would ENHANCE personal lives QUITE FAST.

The collapse in personal lives is a direct result of it STILL BEING THE SAME

The tourniquet is around humanities neck (animals-earth too)....once released--instant change would happen like wildfire


Paradigm shifts can be interesting! My Love and thoughts go to you as well as any who are experiencing such challenging times! <3 <3 <3
