Default Re: Have you unexpectedly changed recently?

Hello PA members,

This is a wonderful thread and would like to share with you what changes I’ve experienced in recent times. But in order to do this I most go back a few decades to an experience that changed my life for ever even though I might not consciously known at the time, but the memory stayed with me till this day.

My parents and I were living back in my mom’s country of origin, Venezuela, and brought me to America for vacation. It was November 22nd 1963. I was 10 years old then. We took a Greyhound bus from Miami to Tallahassee to see the country side. On the bus I was playing with a ball dad had bought me at the airport and I dropped it seeing it roll to the back of the bus. I then ran to the back of bus going under a chain that I hadn’t even noticed that divided the bus in two. A man in the back had picked my ball up and I sat next to him trying to figure a way to say thank you because I didn’t know how to say that in English. The bus suddenly stopped and the driver said something to my dad. Dad called me and said I was not supposed to be in the back of the bus.

I knew right then, the world I lived in was not the same as the one I had been accustomed to. A few minutes later the bus stopped again and everybody was talking and crying. I didn’t know what was going on till later when I heard my dad say to mom that the president of America had been shot.

Of course, I forgot about the incident, but as I was growing up and then later throughout my life when I saw injustices around me that memory immediately returned to me. All my life I’ve been searching for answers that would explained the suffering in the world, the hunger, the wars and all the misery we see on a daily basis. That search led me to change religions like changing shorts but the answers weren’t there either. I gone back and forth throughout all this years living the robotic life we all seemed to be trapped on living. But strangely enough, something always happens that catapults me back and sort of wakes me up again. Is like a voice in the back of my head that says I am living a lie.

Just a couple of years ago, while sitting at work I started seeing this on clocks: 11:11, 12:12 and so on. Then I read on the internet that it meant sort of like a wake up call. There I was again searching the internet for answers to the same old questions. There is a difference now though, because I know that humanity is changing and there is a hope in the air that goes right through our very souls. I agree with you all: CHANGE IS IN THE AIR. And here I am now in PA sharing with you this old earth and journey, learning still through the love of many who want to make this planet a paradise again.

Hope we all meet someday in common ground

Roland
