Independence Day

in #ungrip8 years ago

April 12, 2018 marks ten years since I decided to take full responsibility for everything in my life.  That is when I told the Queen that I was no longer her subject, that I loved her and I would be following Creator instead of her.  At the same time, I declared peace and established my own law form:

Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. - Matthew 22:37-39

To hold the space of being independent required that I examine every aspect of my life.  I refused to accept any benefits or privileges from the Crown.  So I sent all her property back, including Drivers License, passport, Social Insurance Card, health care card, marriage certificate, birth certificate, etc.  I have not been in possession of any government issued ID for nearly 10 years.

I shut down my bank accounts and credit cards.  I stopped using loyalty cards with the corporations that sell industrial waste that they call 'food'.  The post office box was shut down as well.  When the county put up 'address' posts, I ripped it out.  I have not had a wallet or watch for ten years because I have no need for one.

When I was confronted with the reality of my choice, it became apparent that holding the space with peace would be critical.  When I spoke of taking full responsibility for my life, this choice really solidified in my heart what that meant.  

I AM responsible for everything in my life.  EVERYTHING.  I have nobody to blame should anything go wrong.  NOBODY.

As I sit here writing this post and reflecting on the past decade, I must admit that I learned a lot and the idea of independence no longer scares me.  Why?  Because I've lived well for ten years.  We had some tough times and easy times.  But they were all good times and I'm proud of what we accomplished despite all the trials and tribulations we went through.  

We are not done yet as there is still a lot of work yet to do.  Independence Day allows me to stop and reflect.  If I was to share the top achievements in the past decade, I would have to say that a few come to mind.

Spirit guides me through all this.  When I walked away from the Queen and embraced Creator, a significant shift happened.  Creator has protected me through a decade of confronting and rebuking the violence and coercion of the state, Queen, her servants, subjects, neighbours, friends and family.  It has been a lonely journey as very few comprehend why I do what I do and even fewer walk the path.  But that is changing.  Now I find myself actively involved in helping people heal using the skills, knowledge and experience that I've gained over my life time. 

I've done what most people think is impossible.  I've been able to accomplish it because I knew it could be done.  I took a leap of faith and did things even though it scared the shit right out of me.  I faced my fears head on, despite the threats, predators and dangers involved.  My leap of faith protected me as I commanded my intellect to be obedient to my heart and went through the gauntlet being guided by my heart and spirit.  

I've witnessed many who tried this with intellect alone and failed.  Our next phase of evolution requires that our lives be spirit guided.  We cannot think our way through this anymore.  Instead we have to feel our way through.  

I want to acknowledge my wife, @carey-page, for her guidance, patience, love, comprehension and dedication to teaching me and walking this path together, side by side.  We did this together and she is the one that taught me how to live a spirit guided life.  For that I am forever grateful.  

On the May long weekend we are co-facilitating a Spirit Mind Retreat to help people with the process of living a Spirit guided life.  I've already shared on my blog the powerful healing that took place at the Warrior Heart Retreat this past weekend.  If you struggle with the concepts that I speak about, then please find a way to get to the next retreat.  When we live a conscious, spirit guided life, there is nothing that we cannot accomplish.

First off...CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Secondly.

Now I find myself actively involved in helping people heal using the skills, knowledge and experience that I've gained over my life time.

THANK YOU!!!

You have brought to the table so many tools that we can all use, and even have shown us by example how to use them, if we choose to.
You have raised the bar, by walking your talk. There are ways to get out of the fictional constructs of the hamster in the wheel.
You have shown me what it really takes. Not blowing sunshine up my ass. Sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly.
I support your spirit on this journey. Huge love to you my brother.
Much love to Carey. You are both beautiful beings of love and light.

My dear sister;

You 'get it'. I see, hear, feel and witness your transformation. You found the courage to confront fear and that is what will liberate you my friend. <3 I support your spirit as well on the journey you walk as your path is similar to mine. I have a deep respect and love for you and your daughter. Much love to you both. May Creator provide gentle lessons and bless you with peace, freedom, prosperity, joy and love.

Beautiful and well said dear sister ❤
Having folks like you to navigate all the complexities that come flying is a blessing.
Through peace and being the change Spirit will guide our way! .....oh, first spring bug! And, i see ants. Lol 🐿

So glad we're connected ❤

On the level of lower consciousness in which we find ourselves there are all manner of masters, rulers, agents, bureaucrats, and nobles all to whom we bow and owe allegiance. When one steps through the barrier of beliefs and illusions one finds only the Self, and it's true nature Love. It is there in that higher frequency one comes to know there is no master, and no need to bow and bend a knee, no need at all, for one is free of the illusion.

Indeed. Very well articulated my brother. <3

Well, spending the 10 years of independent i am really pleased to see your present condition, perfect status to live a happy life.

Because I've lived well for ten years. We had some tough times and easy times. But they were all good times and I'm proud of what we accomplished despite all the trials and tribulations we went through.

Through your writings, you have changed my thoughts towards life and i am very much sure that many people around the globe changed themselves because of you @wwf

I am really thankful to you for your contributions, massive respect for you Brother :)

Thank you my friend. Lead by example brother! You are your own leader now. <3

WOW! This is the first time I heard of anyone returning all government IDs back to the state and using no bank account. It seems that you must have been so frustrated and disillusioned... did you have a community support system to become this independent or was it just you and your wife when you made that decision? I have trouble imagining making an extreme move like this, but you have opened my eyes to new possibilities. Thank you.

Actually, I was not frustrated or disillusioned at all. I did it all consciously, willingly and with conscious intent. I did it to stand on a principle that has served me will for over a decade. I have support in what I do and that is what helped me make this stand. My whole entire blog is founded on the principles that I outlined here and in nearly 300 other posts over the past 6 months.

If you are new to my blog, then perhaps a few posts to help you catch up to what I stand for.

If you want, you can start with the film UNGRIP which is on youtube.

Peace to you.

I see that this was just one step in a path you had already been following, not a sudden change in your life. Thanks for explanation and the links, I will check them out to understand your story better :)

Yes, this has been unfolding for nearly 20 years my friend. Enjoy catching up!

Really inspiring and touching , by forgoing the things of the world and holding strong to God calling and the things of the spirit. One can really find true happiness and fulfillment, because it is only in walking in the path of light through Jesus christ that you can truly feels and enjoy a life of happiness and joy @wwf

I find it also scares the shit right out of me lol.

What scares you about it?

The thought of dying in prison without ever getting to hold my babies again. That seems to be what the people who call themselves government here in the U.S. want to do to people like me. I am forcing myself to do it but I have zero support locally. Maybe its the lack of validation from my loved ones that undermines my confidence. That plus listening to stories that come out of the gulags in this country are more than enough to intimidate a woman who has been exploited almost to death already.
