I should have knocked on wood when I boasted in a previous post that I can't remember the last time I've been bored. Now I can - it was last night, and the day before and if I'm not mistaken there was some of that the day before it too. But is it really boredom or is it avoidance of the frustration that I now carry. Perhaps I am avoiding time alone with myself and my mind is calling it boredom; and so rather than deal with the issue(s) haunting me sub-consciously I look for social distractions instead.
Last night I declined a dinner invitation, instead I stayed at home to confront this rising tide of negativity that is dimming my light. And so I Ascended and shed a substantial portion of this weight, by the end of the session my Godmother text messaged me to inquire about me. I could not help being slightly amazed at the timing of her message.
Is this the extent of the Bright Path? These days as the blissful months prior to my arrival here in Malaysia stretch farther away in my memory, I find myself being re-hooked more strongly into 'The Dream of the Planet' - a term the Ancient Toltecs used to describe our false version of reality which is a collective dream of billions of smaller, personal dreams that the humans before us created and each generation perpetuates. The Ancients believed we dream with our brain awake, and so our minds dream twenty-four hours a day. In the book The Four Agreements, don Miguel Ruiz attributes the source of our limiting beliefs to this dream state. He says from birth we were domesticated, first by our parents through punishment and reward. And though we rebelled against the beliefs we were not strong enough to win the rebellion and we surrendered to these beliefs with our agreement and thus dream society's dream also. The belief system is the Book of Laws that rules our personal dream.
Yesterday I encountered some new music that moved me strongly, listening to it it seemed my eyes were opened and for a moment I awoke from my dream. As my mind quietened, time slowed and doorways within me reopened. I wondered with gratitude, how long has it been since I've been this reassured of the reality I seek?

Echoing your sentiments on the distraction/avoidance thing. Don't always want to face the things that make us who we are sometimes so it's easy to put our energies towards other things in order not to "go there". Understandable yes, but is it progress towards optimal health (physical, mental and emotional?) HELL NO. Sorry you're struggling.
We need to catch up on IM at some point...
Care to share your new music??? I've got some too. =)
I believe your move is accomplishing one very important thing for you: An altered frame of mind. Perhaps this is the singular thing your move was to accomplish, and not some personal or professional or spiritual breakthrough - but something more powerfully simple.
An altered frame of mind, yes that is definitely happening. Our mind creates so an altered frame of mind can yield amazing results. Everything else i.e. personal, professional, spiritual those breakthroughs falls into place with an altered frame of mind.
Thank you.
