Hello friends,
How’z is going?
Ready for another article? Geez, the topics just keep coming that I have to jump out like “jack in a box” to write them down even when I am in the middle of something important. I don’t know, I feel so great, I feel so aligned to everyone and everything in this universe right now, I don’t believe I have ever felt this in my entire life, until now. I really feel the connection with all things, everything… and you know what, I wish you get to feel this too. To you reading this (yes, I know it sounds cheesy), I love you, I thank you, please forgive me, I am sorry, I appreciate you and I am grateful for you.
While I was in the shower this topic came up this morning, I left all other topics to write about this, the reason being, I was like, it’s so true… Omg! It’s so true. You might not agree, but I will give you the reason and why behind this epiphany. I am most certainly not disrespecting anyone who has been on the downward spiral during the times I write about in this article, and certainly, no disrespect to anyone who got sick, lost close people in their lives, or whatever darkness anyone has been through during this time, I can only speak from coming out of darkness for myself and from what I have observed from all perspectives that have come to me during these times.
The day God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power call it what you want stopped time maybe for me this was this day, 31 March 2019, I was on a plane to the long-awaited trip I desired for a very long time, South Africa. Before this moment for five years, I have been looking at the planes in the sky, the planes passing my window, that I even spent New Year’s Eve 2019 looking at planes from where I was having my New Year’s Eve dinner. I missed getting onto planes, for 10 years (2000 – 2010) I would get on at least one plane (to and from a destination) every year, I missed my family, I hated (still hate) bureaucracy. I still find it hard that people like this really exist, where all it takes is one very possessive narcissist whose ultimate desire was to cage my spirit, even after I walked away by all means possible, and then there were people, who existed, like my lawyer who kept working in the background even if my spirit felt like it couldn’t go any more, thank god for such people.
Under strange circumstances, a woman gets onto a plane, skips Rome by hanging out in the airport; a city long on the list of places she wanted to see. She heads home to finally see her family after one long, very, very long separation, she has only seen them 10 days in 10 years. This woman was me.
From April 2019 I just followed my heart, and understood clearly, even my lawyer echoed the words to me when he too was shocked at the outcome, “Patel, there is a seriously good reason why you have to return home, this is definitely meant to be.” I too believed that after all, we have been fighting or maybe surviving for a long time. I knew this, God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power, call it what you want, doesn’t do anything just for nothing, and so from 2019 I openly accepted to just follow my heart on its calling as the days went, even when the days felt very hard at times. Something told me, “just follow the course, soon everything will become apparent, the reason why you are here will become apparent. Something bigger is about to take place.” There were many days that I found it hard to pick myself up even though I did well at releasing two books in 2019. I felt this feeling that now it’s almost too late for me to get anywhere in life, those succeeding are at their strongest and when one is at their strongest they will keep succeeding, they will keep being ahead of everyone, I felt I was the one right at the back of the line now, for anything to happen it will take forever, it’s this (the struggle) that took so long for me to get so far.
Then one year later arrived and The day God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power call it what you want stopped time for everyone. Let’s face it, a lot of us were tired of “keeping up,” keeping the façade up, keeping the strength up (whatever that means) that is sold to us falsely; lying in bed for a little longer or for the time one needs was negatively looked at, or that one must be a human being that never shows weaknesses or tiredness. “What, you are not working, OMG!” what is “to work” supposed to mean? This one I believe was the biggest, that everything had a condition or a term for, i.e., almost like politically correct, and anyone who wants to just be, be anything out of the box should be left out. Yes, the day God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power, call it what you want stopped time, he, she, it even stopped the bullshit i.e., man cannot slow down, man must always thrive, man must always not ever give up yet at the same time man don’t even slow down. This is when I felt that God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power, call it what you want stopped time and permitted me to go at my pace because the world was going nowhere anyway, so what was my rush?
You know what the utmost revelation to the world by far the day God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power, call it what you want stopped time was? The world had just too many narcissists like the one that held my spirit back because the call in for domestic violence rose to tremendous numbers globally, that even the United Nations and The World Health Organization had to report the new “shadow pandemic,” apart from COVID being the actual pandemic.
The day God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power, call it what you want stopped time was when we saw that even wars were put on truce, (shame on who put that bomb in a car 2 days ago that killed and injured people in Afghanistan, for God’s sake, kids! The innocent!) We saw everything shut down not that we wanted to, not that we liked to, but we had to. It gave me a sense of relief (yes, I know, selfish), but I really and honestly thought, I finally have permission to let everything just be, even me, not lag, just take a bit of my time rather than running at the pace the world expected of all of us, and if you’ve been reading my articles and following my story, it certainly didn’t feel like I was going to get back my entire 18 years in just one year (hey, anything is possible, I just didn’t feel it at the time). It finally was even more okay to focus on the small things we’ve been given in this life, after all, the time has stopped for everyone to just get a reset. God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power, call it what you want stopped schools, stopped business, stopped people, stopped travel, stopped the rich, stopped the poor, stopped the time and he, she, it let what the world terms inferior free, he, she, it gave people their families back, he, she, it stopped people from running… there is so much to be discovered from this reset.
This was the day God, Universe, Source energy, Higher power call it what you want stopped time… and gave people more time…to…
Yours sincerely,
T. Dench Patel
