Childhood ~ The Seven Steps HOME



I woke up this morning hearing the words...“The future has not been written yet, but the Matrix on which it is written is forever changed.

Therefore, the future can no longer be like the past.

In fact, with the new Matrix, the future can only be the NOW!” 

I think one of the ways to live in the NOW is similar to moving from our old house of time.

In order to fully release this “house of time,” we may need to take a long look at how we came into this NOW. 

I will share MY look into the past by posting a series of poem that were put into the matrix of one of my first book, “The Seven Steps to Soul.” 

I have written poetry since I was a child, but compiled all my poem into this book during the three years that my Mother was dying, and I was spending a great deal of time in her, my past, house.

In honor of our advancement into the NOW of great Multidimensional SELF, I rename this work, 
“The Seven Steps to Home.” 

As usual, we must begin with our childhood, as that is were we started our journey.
  
The Seven Steps HOME

THE FIRST STEP
Childhood ~ A Life Begins and Soon Forgets

The seven sections of this book represent seven processes that align us with our Soul.

When our Soul enters our body at birth we forget most of our greater Self, but our inner child holds that secret for us until we are ready to remember. 

But why do we forget? 

Most of us are taught to forget by the people in our world that no longer remember. 

And, often, we forget because of painful events that are too great for a child to bear. 

In the process of that forgetting we lose the happy memories as well.

We also forget because our emotional reactions to the world around us blur our memory and interrupt our connection to the portion of ourselves that remembers. 

Therefore, we must learn to hear, express, and release our emotions without judgment or criticism.

This process often takes years because most of us have learned in our childhood that it is not safe to be completely open and honest ~ with others or ourselves.

We must learn to NOT judge our emotional reactions or we will not feel safe enough to bring them to the surface.

REMEMBERING CHILDHOOD
A Life Begins and Soon Forgets
She saw the first step before her.

It seemed very familiar, like something from her childhood. 

Yes, that was it; this was the first step on the staircase that lead to her Grandmother’s house. 

Something had happened by these stairs because for years and years she had a recurring dream.  In this dream, she was lost. 

She had wandered around trying to find her way until at last, she could go no further. 

Then, she would see the stairs leading to Grandma’s front porch. But did she climb them? 

No!  Instead, she lay down on the sloping lawn next to the stairway and went to sleep—went to sleep in her dream.

She never understood why she never climbed the stairs to receive the comfort she needed from her Grandmother.

Perhaps, she wasn’t ready yet.
