<p>Dear Ones,</p>
<p>We listen to the thoughts and feelings of your global collective consciousness; and we hear humanity thinking about fear and feeling fearful – not just for yourselves, but for the well-being of the world. You may feel that you live in a time of unprecedented chaos, but we invite you to trust us when we say that the levels of fear and chaos you are experiencing are not unprecedented. These levels have been reached before, in fact, they have been surpassed.</p>
<p>High levels of fear and chaos are very uncomfortable, unsettling, and prone to causing both depression and anxiety. We know it is not enjoyable, and having walked in human form before, we have great empathy for your experience. We wish, however, to turn your attention away from the problem of the fear and chaos &#8211; and to instead &#8211; direct it toward the opportunity fear and chaos creates.</p>
<p>You see, when fear and chaos reach high levels, something miraculous happens. People go beyond thinking primarily of themselves and actually start considering a more evolved idea – the well-being of the whole. This is exactly what is happening to much of your global population now, and for that, you may thank the fear and chaos; for it is turning much of your individual and collective attention to the “big picture.”</p>
<p>Moving ahead, as global fear, chaos, and tension persists, your collective will to release it will increase. This release will allow you to experience more desirable feelings and circumstances. Therefore, the world’s fear, tension and chaos may be also viewed as a catalyst for the creation of higher global consciousness and the evolved beliefs, behaviors ad outcomes that accompany it.</p>
<p>Take heart that you are not alone in your fear &#8211; in fact, it is actually a big part your collective experience at present. But instead of suppressing fear, we invite you talk about it with one another. In these conversations, we encourage you to turn your attention to the discussion of “what works” &#8211; acknowledging the fear, chaos and tension – and using it as a catalyst for the creation of new solutions.</p>
<p>You may feel that you live in a hopeless world, but take heart, you will find the hope you seek by consciously reconnecting with others. If solutions are truly what you desire, we invite you to realize that you cannot create them in isolation. Rather, you must come together and operate from a point of trust, divine wisdom and compassion in order to co-create the solutions that allow you to collectively thrive. The solutions will not come overnight, but the very moment you begin to have a well-intended conversation is the moment you’ll begin to release your fear in favor of meaningful connections, hope and the joyful co-creation of that which works.</p>
<p>All is possible when created out of love &#8211; even happiness.</p>
<p>Love,<br />
Michael</p>

Michael says that we come into the physical world as “spirits embodied,” complete and everyway and gifted with infinite wisdom. Based on all the silly things people do, I had a hard time accepting this. Then, I had the following incredible conversation with my 7-year old son, Jack during an evening tuck-in:</p>
<p><strong>Me:</strong> “Jack, I love you so much. You are the best – you really are. Thanks for being here with me, you are the best!”</p>
<p><strong>Jack: </strong> “Hold on, Mom. We need to talk.”</p>
<p><strong>Me: </strong> “Oh yeah? About what?</p>
<p><strong>Jack: </strong> “Well…it’s like this. I am not the best. I am one of many great people in this world. We don’t want any one person to the best, we want everyone to be their greatest.”</p>
<p>At this point was blown away. I kissed him on the cheek and realized that yes, we really are born with infinite wisdom – we just tend to forget it. Thank goodness we have kids to help us reconnect with who we really are.</p>
