The light accompanies you wherever you go, leaving a path towards the heaven within. I saw you speak in Melbourne, and something in that presence has remained with me. It wasn’t the words as much as the feeling of them… like light that stays even after the room empties.
The situation in the world is real. My response to it is where freedom is.
Life is unfolding as it is… and I can meet it with an open or closed heart. Each moment an opportunity to choose once again.
Some days that feels like grace.
Some days it feels like choosing love with a breaking heart.
But the light is still here. Quiet. Steady. Inviting me inwards.
I kind of suspect that this incredible amazing "revolution" that's unstoppable has always been happening everywhere,
popping up whenever and wherever for whomever.
It rocks city, rocks country, rocks inbetween 🥳 !
I've gotten surges or whiffs or views of it throughout my life, and my favorite times are when I'm in the epicenter ❤️ .
Coolest thing about traveling around the world would be to be able to walk into epicenters everywhere, it must have been wilde 🙂 . And then to return home to a hug that's the bag of chips icing on the cake ❤️ !
I'm kind of cynical and jaded --- I think it'd be awesomer than awesome if there's a second coming / biggest revolution / a coming home time. Maybe there is. Thank You for sharing, Ms. Marianne Williamson 🙂 !
What I mean is : Thank you. You are a "picker upper" for me always, but especially today and this year. I know it's always darkest before the dawn but ... still ... Anyway, THANKS for reminding me of how its been and can be and how its me inside that makes it happen.
Hi Marianne. Its been a while. I came back to Substack. I want to continue to write to solve the problems in the world. I hope you're okay with me. I did say I have a fond knowledge of Pokemon which drove me to want to read into biological topics about different kinds of animals. I do have an interest in Asian culture, I want to write more on the problem of Asian racism which tends to be invisiblized. My Substack account is here. https://substack.com/@arcanewriter765
I just sometimes come back to see you because I really thank you for helping me when I was in a depressive spiral in my life. God bless you.
Thank you for your dedication and being such a wonderful teacher of the course, both here in the states and abroad. My life has transformed in so many many positive ways because of that dedication, and has inspired me to love everyone everywhere wherever I go.
Wow! I haven't gotten quite there yet. However, I am much better at forgiveness and I do at least "tolerate," everyone better. Of course, I do keep love in my heart and use it to get better at working on loving everyone and forgiving myself as I fall short.
Sounds like rich people talk to me. Yes, please go find yourself through world travel. Transcend through connecting with the collective consciousness. Time is on your side. Go for it!
Milan, Paris ... some may say it's all a bore, the same ole same old ... pish posh and all that.
And at the same time :
the electric magical overwhelming surge that comes from community of people that care for each other beyond their limited socio-economic birthing -- that kind of unconditional love is powerful 🙂❤️ .
Maybe it's the only true power.
Hey, we are all born somewhere.
Financially poor or rich, and with or without education and voting and citizenship statuses, with genetics that rocks solid or limits health, with great parents or horrible relatives.
I wasn't programmed for 'nuttin (nothing) .
That's my view.
Marianne Williamson is a unique amazing person who shares continuously all that she's been given and all she learns and all she accomplishes.
And for this reason - and my cellphone and US citizenship,
I get to receive, thanks 🙂❤️ !
In the US, sky's the limit if you work hard and I know I'm lucky I get to live here because live is easy compared to other places.
But one needs to work hard and share out to succeed.
And old money was new money at one time. And before that, no money.
Anyway
Marianne Williamson is cool.
Substack is cool.
Life is cool.
Always hard work tho, for everyone I think.
I'm not a great sharer but one day maybe I'll be braver, and maybe I'll run for political office.
I'm 65 already tho, so this could already be my bravery peak ...
In June I turn 68. Since entering my 60s, especially, I have found the insights and wisdom, and as you said bravery, come more rapidly and more intensely. I doubt your bravery has peaked. Keep stretching. In my 20s,30s and 40s I worked in community organizing. I was successful with getting some good people elected, some good legislation passed and some good social structures changed and created. But, running for office itself...that takes something greater than bravery, in my view. Perhaps in your case, it will be one of those wisdoms I told you about a little earlier. Good luck. Keep us posted.
You don’t have to be rich to feel what she’s feeling. I was in Brooklyn the other day. Shockingly, I felt the same thing. And my heart is closed tight!
To Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen,
Guys, I speak for the whole of Humanity when I thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you have just done for us.
Of course the material facts of the mission are wonderful and utterly fascinating but you have given us something of infinitely greater value. You have put before us what we need so badly now as we continue to fail to confront the several enormous crises that we have brought upon ourselves. You have demonstrated the answer, the only answer, to all these problems; Love in action.
You are all stunningly expert; you have nothing to prove to anyone and you demonstrated that by the way you behaved throughout the flight (and since); none of the ego that pushes us apart, just the Love that holds us together. The way you smiled and touched each other and especially the way you held each other as you wept, showed us exactly how we need to treat each other.
Shakespeare would grope for words to describe how desperately we needed and continue to need that example! So many of us wring our hands in despair at how little real rubber on the road we’re seeing in terms of actually solving climate change, the danger of nuclear holocaust, our fracturing societies, artificial intelligence, and so on. This failure can be overcome by Love, and only by Love; thank you, thank you, thank you for so beautifully showing us the way.

dear Marianne, I am sharing a prayer here, with much gratitude, as it feels like one of the many helpful things we can do...
it's a universalist version of a Jewish prayer, by Larry Muhlstein here on Substack, and it says, "Listen, Our World, please Listen. Love is our God. Love is All."

Thank you for coming to Australia.
Be. The. Good.

Yes, the Second Coming blossoming out from within each of us. The transformation of the many to reunite as the one with Love.
And you Marianne shine your brilliant light upon us all. I am forever grateful that our paths have crossed.

The Lord wants us to have hardships, that’s how best we learn. It’s all about the soul growth in the blink that we’re on this earth for. #LDS

Interesting projection. I was working in every place I went.

Amen, Marianne. May love and light shine forth.
Be the light. Be the good. Be the love. ❤️
Death Doulas it doesn’t feel great but miraculous re-birthing miraculous anticipation for what are we imagining for our future. Dream Big 🙏♥️
Is it generally permitted for a substacker to restack someone else's article?
I want to restack this beautiful one, but I'd also like to know if there is across-the-board permission.
(Personally I wish my articles would be restacked by anybody at any time. Yay!)
I see restacks on people's substacks all the time. I am not sure what the actual "rules," are. Maybe there is some info on the substack site itself.
