Anyone else having trouble keeping up? Here&#8217;s a tip: Don&#8217;t rely on the mainstream media to connect the dots for you. I&#8217;m pretty sure that you can come up with a better narrative connecting the Ukraine, cigar-shaped UFOs, disappearing airliners, global financial chaos and a dozen other salient points than can the typical mainstream buffoonery.<\/p>\n<p>I myself am just happy to walk in the woods gleaning all the information I need from such impeccable sources. Days ago a spider&#8217;s web stretched across my face as I walked the familiar path. Normally I don&#8217;t much care for that sort of thing, but this was an exciting early spring indicator. The trees too are beginning to wake up from their frozen slumber as the forest takes on again its heavenly fragrance!<\/p>\n<p>And then there&#8217;s this little fellow who came to speak at length with me:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.nielskunze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Screen-Shot-2014-03-10-at-9.32.24-AM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.nielskunze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Screen-Shot-2014-03-10-at-9.32.24-AM.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2014-03-10 at 9.32.24 AM\" width=\"945\" height=\"521\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.nielskunze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Screen-Shot-2014-03-10-at-9.32.24-AM.png 945w, https:\/\/blog.nielskunze.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/Screen-Shot-2014-03-10-at-9.32.24-AM-300x165.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 945px) 100vw, 945px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you believe in an intelligent universe?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I do\u2026 certainly I do!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How intelligent is it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wow! I hadn&#8217;t really thought to quantify it, but now that I&#8217;m pressed to answer I gotta say &#8220;Pretty friggin&#8217; intelligent\u2026 like in the realm of super-duper smartypants intelligent!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So, smarter than you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Um\u2026 yes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No. You are the intelligence of the universe\u2026 which is to say that the universe of your creation is exactly as intelligent as you <em>allow<\/em> it to be.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you fully trust in the intelligence of the universe, it is nothing more than self-confidence. You understand that your constant meddling in the natural unfolding process of the universe is not needed. It will get along just fine without any of your attempts to control that unfolding&#8211; the ever-changing perfection.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Whenever you feel the weight of the <em>obligation<\/em> to act, refrain. The evolution of worlds does not stand mercilessly upon your shoulders. Whenever you feel the upliftment of the <em>inspiration<\/em> to act, do so.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The unfoldment of the universe is joyous and effortless\u2026 and participatory. But there is no need to seek duty and obligation. Simply allow inspiration to come to you\u2026 and wash away your resistances to what will naturally be.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;New Life is dawning!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We were warned that once things started to &#8220;thaw&#8221; on the world stage they would begin to move very rapidly.
