13.7.24 - Simple things

-
Well, my other post will not let me write anything, so I'm writing it here instead.

We are no longer jet lagged and now able to chill - from running in the morning to swimming later this evening. Then off to Chinatown AGAIN to meet up with Lianne.

Yesterday was interesting, I did lots of research on mythology and they are now all connecting through Steiner's Atlantis lectures. Then Jac took us for this Korean BBQ and it was lovely BUT very very noisy. 

It has made me think about the connection between people and the planet through spirituality. I realised how badly we had been severed and that the work now was all about reconnecting, joining back those pieces. We are trying to reconnect but we are doing it in a way which empties us out. From apps to social media to globalisation. We are now on a trajectory towards oblivion, if we are not careful. And there are several ways to reconnect - the one I am choosing to work with is through reestablishing our connection to the divine.

The way in which that takes place is through Forest School, Steiner, the New Moon Goddess group and other things as well... there's the zodiac and for my own benefit, through piano and music. It is something which I have always worked towards without realising it.

Yesterday, it really came together after looking at the Chinese five directions... but also while researching Virgo. The mother serpent, the Mistress of Beasts, the Great Mother... I realised how much of a wonder the entirety of existence is and how I will always be in wonder of it. We do not need anything else to make us feel that we are the pinnacle of creation, save our own realisation of how lucky we are.

It made me quite angry of how this tie is REPEATEDLY severed, every single day. Several times a day. They are so terrified that we would even be remotely connected to the real source that they must constantly ensure we are distracted and participating like lobotomised zombies in this ridiculous system which they have designed... but for WHAT???? Everyone ends up losing... And could we say that it began REALLY with colonisation? Or was colonisation the most brutal face of it? 

So the work we do, those of us who do it together, we do it through love and through labour... but we do it to return to the awakened connection. To see that it is ALL connected. I AM going to make Virgo the Mistress of Beasts. It makes the most sense. The power which emanates from her is unstoppable... and that is why it has taken me such a long time to create this zodiac.

Geylang Serai is the place i feel most at home in Singapore. Possibly because a vast majority of the population are still Singaporean and i speak the language they speak there - Malay. Also, it hasn't changed that much. OK, it has, but i'd like to think it hasn't. We ate at the new market there which used to be a little better than an open sewer. But it was our open sewer and we loved it. Geylang was heaving with people getting ready for Ramadan. On the table we have sup kambing, otak-otak, nasi padang and rojak. Drinkswise we have lime juice, Kickapoo and teh. It is hot - really hot. We are all pespiring and we can feel our clothes stick to our skin and bellies and thighs. Our hair is continuously in our faces, dripping and sticking too. The only thing that brings relief is a soak in the pool or a shower and an airconditioned room. No wonder when the boys came back, the first thing they said was, ah, it's great to be back in th cool weather again!. Singaporeans love th...

I wrote and read this for Pa at the service. It was in long hand, but I have it here typed out now. It is peppered with verses from the New Testament, because I was asked by the priest to refer to Jesus occasionally, so I made that concession. Big shout out to Ben and the Christian Community whom I spent many a delighted evening reading and discussing the Bible during Bible study class. =========================== Thank you everybody for coming here to honour the life of husband, father and legend which is Eric Sim Chin Seng. Pa crossed over on the 16th of March at 7.30 am. He went peacefully and gently. He breathed his way slowly past this life and on to the new one, leaving his bark, his body, which carried him and his indomitable spirit and endless capacity to love, for 81 years, to say farewell to one last time. This tribute is to you, for you, Pa, who always walked in the sacred steps of Jesus Christ and lived the best life which could be lived. Part I: John 1:14 "The word be...

I should try and love Singapore. And I have really tried to love it. Really. But life in Singapore is not real life. Sadly. The only thing which is real about it is my relationships with my family. I understand we lead very privileged lives. We live in a beautiful house and we live in Serangoon Gardens. I get to swim everyday. We never worry about where the next meal's coming from. Very importantly, we have our health and we have each other. These are all very good things, nothing to be sneezed at. But Singapore itself ... that's a different story. Where to begin? I cannot complain because we actually live in a very nice part of Singapore. It's it unique in all of Singapore. There is no other place like it. In fact the government should slap a preservation order on the place. It is an actual village. Ring fenced by the houses and the roads, it was possibly designed by the British Army as a defensible position. Maybe they didn't mean to do it, but it is that way neverthe...
