"Balancing the Material and Spirit: A Winter's Reflection"

 In reality, the material, my knees hurt. This cold is intense. I sat in 20 degree temps, in a valley by the river in a festival of lights, shivering. It is the only place I can see the sky without the light pollution. The low hanging, golden crescent moon was inspiring. I watched it move across the sky during my time at the festival. My heart ached for the plants and animals and people who would rather have warmth. Much like I, when I accidentally turned my propane heater off. It felt like there were no degrees at that point. Time can only move forward and soon I was on the road home. I drove under the frozen night sky, watching the moon between the bare branches as I zoomed by. I had it at a toasty 74 degrees in my car enjoying Christmas music, seeking songs with bells. 

I tried to ration out my sleep med last night and wrecked my rest. I got up late today and still could use a nap. I have about 2 hours before I have to get ready. What should I engage in for the next couple of hours? I have already cleaned the litter boxes, my uniform is in the dryer and dishes in the dishwasher. 2 free hours to do anything I want. I could nap, work on my ornaments, sew, clean ... I want to engage in thought. 

I scrolled through X this morning to see what was going on in the world. Political chaos, drones and other UAPs are in the sky, assassinations, allegations, and corruption. We are wall waiting for Good to show up. We are all waiting for the sociopath in our lives to wake up and take some accountability. Until then, I am maintaining my peace. My avatar is wowed by my Spirit Self, I'm asking myself how I knew. In those moments I am so grateful I followed my Higher, True Self. Not the physical form that is working on its programming everyday. I am maintaining my peace and protecting my energy. That is why I have the things in my material to choose from doing during this two hours. I returned to my friends question from the other day, "What does your 2025 look like?" What was I wanting to occur in 2025? I am anticipating the Inauguration of Trump, peacefully on January 20th. I am attending the Scream Awards on the 13th. After that I am open to good and peaceful things to come my way.

I want to create more in 2025. I want to be less on the scenes, and more behind the scenes In-Spirit. I don't want to be engaged with the material any more than I currently am. But, because I have a body here there are things I must attend to. My health, my wealth, and physical things in between. I need to get to the dentist. I need to have my eyes checked again. I need appointments for all body parts. It feels like a lot. And then, I need to clear out the channels for income flow. More things I have been putting off. Spiritually, I know I need to attend to The Material, while I am still here. It is a balancing act while navigating this knife's edge. I could go completely crazy if I allowed Evil in. I would appear completely crazy if I gave completely into Spirit. 

Taking inventory of my self, body, home, relationships will be the first task when I get buckled in. I need to assess the surroundings. Where am I? In my Cosmic Book scenes, I am turning on engines in the pod, checking the systems. I'm not eager or in a rush to start flipping switches. It is cold out now, and I want to snuggle up inwardly, to my eternal flame. Bask in the warmth and beauty of all around me. I want to watch my cats be happy and feel love. I want to create a beautiful and peaceful environment for myself. I want it filled with things I love. My want my time spent engaging with the material to be meaningful and filled with inspired experiences. How do I continue to craft these wants in my life? I now have an hour and a half of free time before I get ready for work. Perhaps I will paint some of my new decorative baubles.
