Feelings as we move through the year 2012?

[Timreh]

Like sand running through an upturned hourglass I find there is just not enough time, everything is happening so fast and I am so busy keeping up that I feel distracted and my energies seem to be used anywhere but on me.
I draw strength from the change happening across the globe both in the streets and on the internet.
After being overwhelmed and disillusioned at times with the amount of conflicting information about I have a much more laid back attitude ATM.
Wanting and knocking at my door are feelings of anger toward many of those in positions of power, especially the few key players for the world being in the state it is and for being lied to, though I try not to accommodate any negative feelings or fear.
Knowing the transition was never going to be easy I remain optimistic and very excited about things ahead, I do wish change or closure would hurry up and come yesterday.

I would like to know how everyone is feeling and coping during this wonderful but awkward time??

good morning SoulAppreciation and welcome to avalon. i am right there with you with feeling overwhelmed. everyday the challenges become more and more difficult to maintain. i wake up with the simple notion that 'today is a new day and no mistakes have been made', and with that i try to encourage laughter and free thought with my family, friends and work colleagues. i try doing the things i enjoy for myself, like coming here to avalon to get the latest perspective on world events and possible world catastrophies. it isn't always easy reading some of the threads here, but, i've learned not to take anything to seriously and i always use discernment regarding everything posted. this keeps me level headed..... i also love to read, (i'm reading a biography about W. Somerset Maugham at the moment) and i love to cook, so these things keep me occupied and help me cope. i am also learning how to meditate.
again, welcome to avalon and thanks for the thread. i like it.
warmest regards, corson

Hi Soul...

These last few years I've been on an emotional rollercoaster, processing all the information that hits you when you try to figure out the truth.
What I found out, was that it's not really real, it's just a ride. But when you are caught up on the ride, your emotions sure make it feel real. (and I suppose It have to, or most of us would jump of the ride along time ago)

My conclusion is, learn all you can from this ride, so you don't have to do the same ride twice.

P.S... I am looking forward to my new ride..

Hi SoulAppreciation, I can really relate to how you feel. It's the anticipation of a big change..

I get very impatient at times too, frustrated at having to do things that I know are really just a waste of time...angry that I am forced by unseen powers to act against my nature. When I know, no one is 'forcing' me to do anything! It's all up to me!

It's these feelings that are pushing the change in everyone. The urge, the desire, to live closer to the heart. Everyone knows what they need to do, I know I do. Perhaps I feel impatient with myself.

Hi SoulAppreciation! Oh if only people knew the ups and downs and vast range of emotions I have had in the past few years: helplessness, desperation, anger, despair, excitement, disbelief, hope and so much more. For a long time I had the feeling that there wasn't enough time to prepare (still do in the back of my head I suppose), not so much for me, but my son, all I want to do is protect him. I have gone through all the lists of what I need to physically prepare for and spiritually, and felt a huge pressure that I simply do not have enough time to 'do it all'. I am not especially spiritually advanced (when comparing myself to those on avalon), which for a long time made me feel inadequate, and I simply do not have the funds to get the extreme survival 'kit' that i thought I so desperately need. I now am starting to feel more of a calm. I am trying not to let all these feelings from stopping me from living in the now. The helplessness I was feeling was causing an anger inside me that was being projected onto my family, so I am trying to let go of this. What will be will be, I have a home that I can keep warm in the cold, I have a water supply and a fairly good stock of food, plus ample gardens to grow my own veggies in, we have goats and chickens. Thats it. This will have to do for me at this point. I am going to try and go with the flow and let the universe give me the strength and 'enlightenment' I need, without getting myself all wound up about not being as spiritually advanced as others. I'm just going to follow my path. That's where I am right now, no doubt this will change again though ! Good luck to you on your path my friend.
