Good-bye to 'Me First!'

[Ishema, Carol Suchecki]

the real newsletters start here   Good-bye to 'Me First!' "You will live through many 'natural disasters' now," the Grandmothers said.  "There is a build up of negativity both on and in the Earth that must be discharged, so you can expect them to occur.  The disasters that keep occurring are not 'natural' at all but are born from this accumulation of negativity.  For eons humans have lived out of balance with one another, with God and with nature, and this lack of balance has reached crisis proportions.  The monstrous fires, hurricanes, floods, droughts and other calamities today are all coming from the same source --- man's lack of harmony.  And, what man has caused, only man can rectify.    "For life on earth to return to balance, mankind must give up selfishness," the Grandmothers said.  "That means that each of you must give up your attachment to 'me first!'" they smiled ruefully.   "'Me first'separates you from God, from one another, and from the spirits of nature whose job it is to maintain harmony on earth.  For too long you have isolated yourself from the flow of life," they said, shaking their heads sadly."You've denied the presence of the Divine --- in the world and in yourself. Often, you've behaved as if your small, separate self was the center of the universe, but instead of this life view making you happy, it has made you miserable.     "It's time to drop these old attitudes of selfishness and 'me first!'   Time to hold all life in reverence," they said, putting a special emphasis on 'all'."Time to reconnect with the spirits of nature, to reconnect also with the ancestors and with the Source that binds all beings together in this experience you call 'Life.'  It's time to appreciate your connection with the trees, with animals, with strangers, and with your so-called enemies. Earth is home to all of you.   "We have given you the Net of Light," the Grandmothers said, "to feel your link with one another.  And we ask you to take time to cast and work with the Net every day --- many times each day!" they laughed.  "We ask you to bless the spirits of fire, wind, rain, and storms and ask them in turn to bless the earth and all Her beings.  These spirits are not, as you have been taught, a 'fiction' or 'fairy tale.'  They are real!  Part of the family of life.  You've been told to deny the spirits of nature but your ancestors honored them.  Isn't it time that you did the same?   "Although you've been taught to hold yourself separate from nature, at this point, living cut off from the life force on your planet is causing you great pain."  The Grandmothers shook their heads, then said, "Stop this! Instead, take another step into your power!  Claim your brotherhood and sisterhood with the spirits of nature.  Claim your divine identity.  You are one with the Source, one with the powers of nature, you are one with one another.  You are not an isolated self.  No!  You are The Divine Self.  You are one with all that is.  Believe it," the Grandmothers said,"and start behaving as the great one that you are."   Note from the Net of Light team: The Grandmothers' Light Weavers team is at work today on the fires in Australia and will work on all requests they receive for help. You may contact this team at [e-mail]. Please join the Light Weavers in holding the Net steady in and for Australia now.

Please use it if you like.  "Be still, Brother Wind, so the land can rest.  Sister Rain, soothe and cool and tame Brother Fire,  so he doesn't take anymore than is his by right.  No more need for Air and Fire now,  may Water and Earth rise and restore balance."    this is the signature    Wishing you all the very best, Sharon McErlane Net of Light and Grandmothers Speak
