Part One: 
Celebration of a Life Well Lived
 
Chapter 3 
The Take-a-Break Frame

 

I wake in the wee hours from a dream in which I am an observer, watching a scene unfold: 

 

An early morning dream that seems long and meaningful, though all I recall is a single image: an ET emerging from a well filled with garbage. 

 

On waking I drift in the transitional time, thinking the ‘garbage’ is all the stuff we don't want to see. Results from the 2024 elections have come in and many of my friends and family feel jolted, upset and unmoored. Bob comments that because of this recent jolt — a collective choice — the Earth will be changing even faster, and because of that, there are fewer rules about ETs interacting with humans on our planet. 

 

He shows me the typical ‘Gray’ alien and says they track by emotions. Because they don't have emotions as we do, our emotions stand out for them, and that is how they track and follow us. But if we stop emoting, or enter an emotionally blank space, they can no longer follow. 

 

There are many other ETs, he says, showing me some tall, white-haired aliens who are benevolent. He says these aliens track by spiritual development, by one's ability to feel certain spiritual frequencies. And there's more, he says — so much more.

Why are you telling me all this, I ask, surprised at the flow of conversation.

 

He says we both have ET lives and ancestry. With a small laugh, he reminds me of stories of when he was a child, seeing a ship in the sky, feeling ET presences in his youth, and even when we were together — like the blue light over a lake in Wisconsin. There have been other instances too, he says. And more to come. 

 

How do you know all this?

 

He laughs again. We can see more in spirit world than you can.

So what do you want me to know about all this, I ask later in the day. 

 

I’m just sharing a few clues. We’ve always been interested in ET visitors — Alyeska too, and we've all had some experiences whether you are aware of them or not. I’m telling you this to let you know there will probably be more. Best to be curious, open-minded.   

 

There are a lot of different ETs, and some visit the spirit world. For them it is natural to talk with spirit beings, and many of them are spirit beings in the sense that they evolved without physical bodies — so it is easy and natural for them to exist in this way. 

 

Things are changing quickly — and the jolt was one of many, like a pre-quake. Just like there are after-shocks with earthquakes, there are subtle quakes before an earthquake — that is how some animals know to leave an area or warn their people. The jolt we talked about was one of these — a pre-quake. There will be more.

 

Many beings are watching this — angelic beings, ET beings, spirit beings from various realms. I'm just letting you know so you'll have a sense of what’s coming. There's nothing you need do. But it will be less of a shock to hear it now. There will be many jolts, changes, quick shifts. Just saying.

 

Well, that's interesting. What does this all mean? 

 

It’s background stuff. Some people won’t even be aware of it. Or they may notice odd situations or events, but they won't really know why. Some will make up their own stories. You’ll see this in the news and elsewhere: lots of cover stories — not the real story, just made up ones. That’s why this is the time of things being very different than they seem. 

 

Seems like that has been going on for awhile.

 

Yeah, some people sense that. But when they get fearful or stuck in their frames, then stories get told. Sometimes individual stories and sometimes big news stories — stories with an agenda they’re trying to push. Watch out for those. 

 

I think you’ll remember more when you meet with some of the ET presences. There are some troublemakers, but most bring knowledge and insight, helping people clear their thoughts and emotions. The troublemakers aren't really bad — they’re like people who are stuck in their own frame. Just because you are an ET doesn't make you wise. 

 

Hmm. I was just going to ask you something and suddenly forgot.

 

You have lots of thoughts and feelings right now because of family and the celebration. I’m with you. I'm right beside you for all of this. Trust yourself. Don't get stuck into too many frames. 

 

Maybe I was thinking about getting stuck in frames. Now I sense we're thinking together, and we’re looking out of a big picture window. In this vista, there are green hills and lakes and trees and it's very peaceful. There’s a nice calm through this window. No expectations or ideas, just a calm.

 

Yeah, that’s a good frame. A take-a-break frame. 

 

And now we’re thinking this isn't about finding the best frame but — the ability to move from frame to frame. And to know that there are many frames. That the more agile and aware you are, the more you can choose the frame that is right for the occasion. Maybe there's a point where there are no frames anymore? 

 

As long as there are thoughts and words, there are frames. You might not call them that or think of them like that, but it’s similar. A way of seeing things. A frame to your experience. 

 

It sometimes surprises me that you can talk like this. Lightyears away from the way we used to talk.

 

Because my frames are different now. I'm light-footed and can move between the frames. And that's another thing — there are frames between frames, hidden frames, invisible frames. The more open you are, the more you can see and have fun. The more you recognize the frames, the more you can learn to change them, adjust them, make them larger, more porous. It’s like anything — the more you explore it, the more savvy you become.

 

A savvy frame explorer.

Yeah, that too. It’s like the ET thing — it’s a human frame that they’re different or separate in some way. But there are also frames that see us as related and interwoven. Those are the more interesting frames — at least for me, right now.

 

So there are frames in spirit world just like here.

 

Yeah! Spirit people have different ways of seeing things compared to physical beings, but they still have frames. Certain understandings are agreed upon, and some are unique to the individual. Same with ETs, and angels, and other beings too.  

 

Here’s another thing: how clean is the frame? That’s like your dream image of the well and the garbage. The well is a kind of frame, and if you go through it with the garbage — the old holds and hurts — then it’s hard to see, to travel through that clearly. 

 

That's what the Grays and others are doing when they track humans — they look and feel for that, so they can find you. And humans do that too. It’s like what you sometimes told me — when you put out a certain emotion, you feel and find those who are emoting similarly. That’s how groups get formed — some people all have the same frame, and the more they focus on that, the stronger the group frame gets.

 

And that’s part of the jolt with the election. The old frames are getting smashed. There's too much insistence and too much heavy, angry emotion, and the frames are not strong enough to hold that. It’s past the point of no return. So the frames shake and rattle and tear apart. Those are part of the pre-quakes. And more are coming. 

 

You don’t need to be afraid. I'm just sharing what I'm feeling and realizing now. Just like you, I learn day by day. It’s all good that this is happening.

 

And maybe the timing is good too? Like how Alyeska and I chose this weekend — your birthday — for everything to happen. The timing-frame seemed right.

 

We framed this together. You and Alyeska and myself. And my family — those who are coming and those who are not. Some people shut tight the frame of death. They don’t want to see it. And that’s okay. They’ll see it when they’re ready.  

 

It’s a big opening of a frame for me because I had a lot of judgment about some things. And now I see that was just my frame being nailed shut. I nailed certain frames shut and got stuck there. We always frame ourselves. 

 

We stand together in silence, in front of the big, open frame, which slowly dissolves. And now we’re standing together on a high, grassy hill, looking out at other hills in the distance, at water and trees and sky. The frame is gone. We smile at each other and he squeezes my hand, and then we're far beyond the horizon. 

 

All these possibilities — all these possible frames for us to choose! 

 

I love you, he says, squeezing my hand, squeezing shut his eyes in a hug. 

 

I love you too, I tell him with my heart. I love us standing together right here, right now. It’s the perfect frame. Because it's ours.
