Last week I turned on the TV to the documentary “Imagine: John Lennon.” John Lennon’s message and energy of peace and love immediately overtook me. His mission was clear, and completely encompasses me when I listen to his music. He didn’t care what other people thought of him because he was guided by his purpose, guided by something divine, something, I think, he’d call Love. I want me some of that.
The day I watched the documentary was the anniversary of his death. The spiritual teachings of Kabbalah say that on the anniversary of an advanced soul’s passing, you can actually tap into and connect to their energy… that during that window of time when their souls left their bodies on earth, they are available to us to ask them for guidance and assistance. Well, I’d certainly been needing some major assistance and guidance lately, and I know a lot of people right now that are feeling lost and could also use some guidance. So I decided to ask John Lennon for help. Here is the message I got:
“There’s nothing you can do that isn’t what you’re meant to do. Shut off your brain. It’s E-A-S-Y.” (yes, yes, I know, it sounds an awful lot like a certain song…)
But I wrote to him that it really doesn’t feel easy and I drew a few sad faces…
He continued, “Oh stop it with the sad faces. Life is GOOD. And it’s even better over here. None of this here for you on Earth really means as much as you think. You put too much pressure. SO serious. It doesn’t matter where you live! Or if you have a big home or fancy shmancy things! All that matters is your love and that you’re together.
Love is an energy that changes worlds, ignites change. Love is the energy of peace, love is more rich than all the money in the world.
The goal is for you to be together, to live to love. Not where. The energy, the love, is the source – that’s the cause. Not the money or the home or the things. That’s the AFTER. And if you’re living from love all-the-time then 1) these things don’t matter because you’re so 100% full and connected to love and the universe and always divinely guided, and so complete and full that you don’t need any stuff to make you feel better; and 2) those things will just show up after and are merely icing on the cake.
So go into your job just with love. Love those who are trying to keep you down. Put love in every word you write, every word you speak, knowing that each word can shift the life of the person reading it or hearing it. Each person will feel the love through each word you write and speak just like you feel the love from each word and note of my songs. Just LOVE. Then everything will miraculously fall into place. It’s E-A-S-Y. (wink).
Shift your focus, kiddies. Love is the currency. That’s where you’ve got to flip your switch.”
