Steadygain's Groove and Trip Pad

[Steadygain]

...We talked on and on for hours about all kinds of different things and finally I had this crazy thought. "When we pass from one dimension to the next it always goes very quickly like passing through a bubble. Is there anyway I could be the one taking us the next dimension and stretch it out and make it fun"?
..."Well of course you could Carrie. What did you have in mind"?
..."I thought it would be fun to tie streamers to our wrists and just fly up from the ground until we popped through the other side. Steady comes up with ideas that add so much fun to our adventure by getting these warriors to walk like penguins and howl like wolves. I just think it would be so wonderful to see these guys looking like ballerinas spinning and twirling around with long streamers from their arms".
...Silverbird stood and said, "I'll be right back" and left the room. When she returned a few moments later she was once again the bird and brought a stack of colorful streamers with her. "Carrie if you are the one that blends your energy in the walled circle then you can go to the next dimension any way you want. Steady has never given that much thought and that's why it has always gone the way it has. So now you can have your fun."
...I was so delighted I jumped out of my chair, ran over and gave Silverbird a big hug. "Oh thank you so much, this will be wonderful." Then we headed back to the walled circle and put the stack of streamers next to Steady and the Warriors. Silverbird then asked me to wait with the group and she would call me from the walled circle.
...As she walked to the circle Steady and the others woke from their frozen state and we all just watched as Silverbird walked in and was transformed into the beautiful gem. Then she waved for me to join her and I floated up into the walled circle as the others returned to a frozen state. I already felt like we were the closest possible friends ever and there was no one I could imagine being more open with. The process is largely being totally free and open and letting your life absorb all it can and giving everything over and as that happens the physical body disappears and a new chemistry comes into being. It's like you’re a cloud – a magical cloud with the highest purity and a love and reverence that can only be achieved in that state. When you get to the highest point possible and know beyond the shadow of any doubt that you could not possibly go any higher God intervenes and joins you and that when the explosion occurs and everything up to that point was barely the beginning. You then are taken where God alone exists and for that moment you know what it's like to be in His circle. It is something that floods you and keeps you glowing until you reach your next destination.
...Then I was back with the group and noticed the streamers on the ground as they were coming out of the frozen state. I tapped Steady on the shoulder and told everyone that the streamers were needed to get us to the next dimension. As I began tying the streamers on Birch's wrists I explained that we had to keep the streamers moving in various directions as we traveled. In another minute the streamers were dangling from our wrists with the majority lying limply on the ground.
..."Okay guys, this is it. Arms out by your sides" and there were the 4 of them with their arms stretched out and ready to go. "Now follow me and do as I do". Then I sprung in the air and kept flying higher. It was hard to believe it could be that easy and I wasted no time spinning in circles and watching these big men do the same. I quickly found we could fly in any direction and decided to stretch it out with summersaults and all kinds of spontaneous things and soon all of us kept going from one thing to another and all of us having the time of our lives. Then we all went straight up like rockets until we entered the next dimension.

...As usual my vision was blocked by the backs of my protectors who stood motionless for several minutes while they scanned the area. Then Buster shakes his arms up in the air and struts out yelling "Wa hoo" and starts singing:

"I'm a soul man​

ba ta.....ba ta
ta ta ta ​

I'm a soul man"​

The further out he went the more he spun in circles and did a bunch of moon walks while singing to the top of his lungs. He looked really good the way he danced around and you could barely see the flashes of metal he was throwing out, but hidden behind trees and bushes came the thuds of creatures falling to the ground every few seconds as Buster threw his knifes. Finally the last 3 creatures realized the whole thing was a distractor and 7 of their friends laid dead on the ground. With loud screams they joined together to attack him, and Buster responed by doing cartwheels and back flips and kicked 2 of them to the ground. The last one tried to run away and Buster made sure he came in our direction. As he got a little closer CB roped him and tied him down like a cow. They were my protectors and took that very serious but these guys really seemed to enjoy their job. Buster goes back singing to the top of his lungs while doing some dances and finishes the other 2 off, and then gathered his knifes back. After he got his knifes his demeanor totally changed as he stood silently lifting his hands in worship and the breeze came down and cleansed him and the knifes spotless.
...As Buster walked back in our direction large lizzard creatures sprang out from the treetops to attack him. BANG! the sound hurt my ears and made them ring. BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG! I looked as CB blew the smoke from his barrel with a big smile on his face. "There's the hard way and the easy way", he shouted out and he and Buster gave each other a big thumbs up. ​

 

[Steadygain]

...Just as Buster had reached us a lady stepped out from the woods where Buster had defeated the evil creatures. Her beauty was stunning - especially compared to the evil creatures who had just been killed throughout that area. She went to the middle of the clearing and shouted, "Hey y'all, thanks for taking care of my trash" while waving a friendly greeting in our direction.
...Steady was dazed and said, "Sunshineromano" as though he'd just seen a long lost friend and wondered if it was just a vision. Birch and CB nudged him and said, "Go on Steady, we got things covered here" and Steady walked on out to the clearing like a zombie in a trance or like someone sleep walking. It was so funny to watch, but not a laughing type of funny - rather just the opposite. It was like watching a young child with the purest heart walking out to meet his first real love.
...As Steady got closer Sunshineromano got the same expression Steady walked out there with. An expression of amazement and unbelief and the closer he got the more you saw her face come to life. "Steady, is that you"? and then she ran to greet him and they threw their arms around each other and stayed there soaking in the moment and didn't say a word for several minutes.
...The walled circle behind us began bubbling up like hot black lava and then the clouds swirled and the layers began to rise up in the form of a woman. At first I thought it was just a shadow but after looking more closely I realized she was a pearl that was black as night. She stood there for awhile almost hesitant to expose herself any further and then she opened her eyes and I knew it was her. I felt like the biggest part of me was inside her - she was my twin, the one Silverbird told me about. When our eyes met there was no mistake - and we connected in ways that could only happen if you found that half of your identity was in another; and you came to discover that throughout the years every thought, experience, hope and dream and every little aspect of your entire existence was equally and wholly a part of her. That you both are one and without that only half of you remains.

 

[Steadygain]

..."Oh Sunshine", Steady said with tears in his eyes; "I never thought I'd see you again and over the years I would daydream about our first date and all the others that followed".
..."Steady, the first time I really felt like a woman was when I got ready for the school dance. I remember that like yesterday and the way you looked when you picked me up at my house made it all worthwhile. I could tell from your expression, especially the glow in your eyes, that I was beautiful and my hair and dress and everything were just right".
..."Sunshine", Steady half whispered as he ran his hand across the right side of her face; "It was not so much the beauty of your hair, although it was perfect, it was absolutely perfect. Nor was it so much the dress that brought out your beauty and form like nothing I'd ever seen before. You were a living dream and whatever way you could have brought out your beauty - it was totally brought out in the highest possible manner. But way above all that is the way you looked at me, the way you smiled, and the beauty from within that came to life. This is what took hold of me and made me realize that the life and energy you possess was by far the greatest treasure I'd ever found and that bought out your beauty more than anything else. That's why I greeted you with such pride and had such a glow in my expression. Of course I felt like the luckiest man alive when I walked in the room with you by my side. It didn't make any difference what any other girl looked like or how long they may have been with their boyfriend - because in my heart of hearts I knew every guy in that place had to envy me."
..."Oh Steady, you always had a way of making me feel beautiful and full of life. I can hardly believe we've finally met after all these years. I've got a place my father made for me shortly after we arrived in this dimension that I'd love to show you if you have the time."
...Steady looked around and I was the only one caught up in watching this pearl - though black as night - begin to come to life. CB, Buster, and Birch were all giving him a big thumb's up and waving him on. Everyone but me knew that they were each others first true love and that their relationship blossomed over the years. Then Sunshine had to follow her parents into another dimension and Steady never saw her again.

 

[Steadygain]

...Sunshine and Steady were full of life; probably more full of life than ever before. It's like everything they had hoped for over the years has suddenly come into being and both were caught up in a Spirit of Love and Happiness that is rarely known in any life; it's something all of us crave for and long for deep down inside, but usually it's a fading dream that becomes forgotten by the time we get old and pass on.
...Steady followed her through a trail in the woods which led to a cliff. She looked all over scanning the area thoroughly to make sure no one was watching and then it looked like she was stomping on ants with both of her feet for a little while and immediately after this she spun around jumped up and touched the cliff and when she landed the cliff opened and we walked in the passage.

 

[Steadygain]

...We were in a cave with stone walls spaced about 8 feet apart. The dirt floor was flat and the passage curved in different directions as we walked further and further. From the moment we stepped in the passage the stone doors in the cliff quickly sealed tight and not a trace of sun light could be seen. Scattered on each wall were lights in the shape of tomatoes that were held by green stems poking out from the stone. The bulbs were the size of a basketball with green strips from the stem extending around the bulb and joining on the bottom where they formed a small circle. So if you can picture a large tomatoe with thin strips from the stem circling around and joining on the bottom - that's exactly how these looked. The glow was orange and unlike anything I'd ever seen before, with a magical appearance and giving off just enough light to make the passage safe - but maintaining a tranquil cave like atmosphere. Around the next curve it opened into a huge room at least the size of several football feilds with a domed ceiling that went 60 feet up to the top.

 

[Steadygain]

...The ceiling was made of blue mica that glistened like tinsel. It gave off a blue luster that gave the feeling of a peaceful ocean; nothing could have made you feel more at ease or more open to the atmosphere. In the center of the floor was a huge lake with several fountains spraying water 15 feet up in the air in a large circle. In the background was a waterfall 15 feet high and 30 feet wide. The sound of the water landing in the lake was the most soothing sound you could imagine. Along the edge of the lake were the large tomatoe shaped lights 5 feet in diameter and evenly spaced 20 yards apart. If this sounds even remotely beautiful then multiply those feelings by hundreds of thousands because short of being there you can't possibly know how wonderful it was. Somethings you can describe in the greatest of details, but without living it - without really having the experience there are no words to describe the exhilaration of emotions and the total richness of the magic that filled that place.
...Steady was speechless, he was in such awe that all he could do was stand there and take it in as if it were a wonderful dream and constantly wonder when he would wake up. But Sunshine left no doubt that everything was real as she led him through the passage to her special hideaway. Lillypads 10 feet wide were scattered in the water near the edge and went out about 20 yards.
...Sunshine looked more beautiful than Steady had ever seen her before. Now she was a woman fully grown and in that lighting and in that room she was absolutely amazing. She was glowing with excitement, knowing this place was everything she ever dreamed of and it took her father many years to complete. She stepped on top of a lilly pad near the edge and looked at Steady with the most beautiful smile and sparkle in her eyes and said, "Come on I'll show you my favorite part". Then they both walked out to the edge of the furthest lilly pad and peered in the water below.

 

[Steadygain]

...Steady noticed a bright golden glow under the water and looked over at Sunshine in anticapation. "Come on Steady, follow me", she said and dove in the water..Steady dove in after her and noticed a world of golden treasures under the water and followed her as she swam through an underground tunnel. The symbols ^^@w were inscribed in the walls of the golden tunnel and then they came through the other side and up into a beautiful room adorned with hundreds of marshmello people. There was one large marshmello king with hundreds of smaller marshmellos scattered here and there. All had a wide variety of expressions and amazingly each of them began talking in one way or another. "Quiet"!, Sunshine shouted and all were silenced immediately. "Sorry Steady, it gets lonely here by myself and so I made these to have a little noise and make it feel like I'm actually hearing someone talking. It may sound silly but sometimes it helps".
..."I think that sounds wonderfully creative. I'm just floored with everything you have and how beautiful everything is. You are way more beautiful than I even remembered and I just can't get over the glow of your skin and how young and fresh and full of life you are. How in the world did you keep yourself looking so healthy and vibrant".
..."It's the robe Steady. My father was a genius in many ways and he designed the tunnel we swam through to keep me young and healty. The symbols do everything from measuring your pulse, breathing, emotional state, and checking all the levels of your hormones, enzymes, chemicals, iron and everything else. As you swim through it weaves the golden robe which does everything from keeping your skin soft and smooth to bringing the most perfect harmony to all aspects of your health. That's why you feel so relaxed and wonderful".
...Steady thought it was all the way she made him feel as he had largely felt that way since he first saw her waving in the clearing. But then he noticed the golden robe she and he were wearing and he was stunned to discover this. He started to undo the knot that held it together and Sunshine stopped him and told him it has to stay in place for 5 minutes and then everything will be perfect. "Trust me Steady skin will never feel better and there could never be a more perfect guarantee that every little aspect of your health will ever be in more perfect balance. Steady held her in his arms and they just swayed to the music - nothing playing (at least nothing that could be heard) - but both of them were caught in the same rhythm, the same heartbeat and they swayed around the room soaking in the moment. Then Sunshine looked up at him as he looked down at her. Steady said softly, "Don't kiss my lips or I'll turn into the man and I need to remain a raccoon for Carrie's sake".
..."Oh Steady, don't be silly. You know she can't get to the next dimension without you and it's a whole lot better than just standing in the middle of no where in a frozen state".
...They were both overwhelmed. Sunshine had been alone for quite a long time and Steady knew he'd never be able to find anyone that could ever take her place and so he became a raccoon when given the opportunity and decided to go in a different direction altogether. Over the years they never gave up and always held onto a hope deep down inside. Just as their lips joined together the 5 minute bell sounded once and they were totally lost and wholly found in each other's world.

 

[Steadygain]

...It was distracting with Buster, Birch, and CB lost in their own world, talking about everything imaginable and just being themselves. She had been more than patient waiting to get their attention, but without Steady and the earlier dealings with the evil creatures they'd forgotten to pay their respect to the goddess and now she finally had enough. A loud crashing BOOM sounded out from the walled circle mixed with bolts of lightening that blasted out in various directions towards the sky - and the 3 warriors looked over to have her instantly place them in a frozen state. Then she softly looked back at Carrie and wondered if this could really be her.
...Carrie felt her life opening up and she felt everything and her heart ached more than she ever thought possible. She felt the pains and disappointments she'd had over the years, the empty moments, and the heartaches and it drove her to tears and made her cry - she felt totally broken. Yet in this brokenness she felt the love that bonded them together and the Power and Strength and Love that God was filling her with to bear everything and let her become the ultimate source of restoration. ****** felt it too and lifted her arm in a glorious sign of hope and waved for Carrie to join her.
...As Carrie drifted towards the walled circle the dark clouds which prevailed over the land for many centuries began to brighten and the gloom of sorrow and dispair was changing and everything seemed to cry out in celebration. The leaves and trees, the plants and flowers, the wind and water were all feeling it and it was wonderful. Then the moment happened and Carrie felt the chemistry of her existence begin to dissipate into dust and blend with her long lost twin. Both of them felt it and it was the most wonderful magical and Holy event either one could possibly know. For each one was the other's half - the life that each needed to ultimately be complete and this is the moment 'The Magnet' took on her greatest Glory. This in when the entire dimension began the Ultimate Dispensation - transforming gloom into hope and dark into light.
...Steady and Sunshine felt it too and Steady knew it was time to leave. Sunshine asked, "Steady, what is your ultimate dream. Where is your ultimate endeavor when your life is done"?
...Steady had thought about that question over the years and said, "My ultimate end is to blend my existence with Sugar when she becomes God's Ultimate Blossom - so that I might make her shine even more".
..."Then I'm coming with you Steady and I will give her everything when my time has come".
..."No you can't come. It is dangerous and you could easily be killed."
..."I would rather die in honor and wait for the flower and for you to join me - than have nothing at all."
...That was the moment it happened and it was by far the greatest and most glorious transition from one dimension to another. They came into a world overcast and gloomy and left it with the most glorious splendor they'd ever witnessed. The Pearl was now the most glorious White Pearl and her beauty retained the most wonderful radiance of God's Existence from that moment on. Steady and Sunshine were totally bonded and left togther; Carrie had also bonded and everybit as deeply and was now more full of life than she'd ever known and that's how everyone entered the next dimension.

 

[Steadygain]

...When we pushed through the fabric that divided the dimensions we kept flying up towards the sky. Steady asked me where we were going and of course I didn't have a clue so I said rather abruptly, "How should I know"?
...Steady then went on to tell me some of the predictions concerning The Magnet that had been written over the centuries. "According to the Sacred Text when the Black Pearl underwent the Transformation she would ask what area you considered the most sacred of all, the place you would never go a year without seeing".
..."Really, how could they have known that"? Steady didn't answer; he didn't have to, somehow many events in my life were known hundreds of years before I was born. "I told her the Farm in WV."
...Steady had a shock of delight. "Really, are you serious"?
..."Of course I'm serious, that's by far the number one pick".
..."Then we're headed to West Virginia! That's wonderful".
...After flying above the clouds for a few moments they flew back down over the mountains of WV and landed softly in a beautiful valley. A buck and three does were standing near a clearing and all of us went quietly towards them to get a better view. They walked just out of our field of vision and as we came to approach them we noticed the walled circle with swirling blue and white clouds. Then the form and shape of a beautiful woman began to emerge and as the clouds begin to scatter and the woman came into better view the image of the grey fox was crystal clear.
..."Steady, that's the fox you spent time with at the circle".
...Steady looked over at me with a bashful and embarrassed expression and then back at the grey fox, which gracefully stepped out of the circle and came over to join us. She walked up to me and said, "All my life I've longed for the day to meet you and you are even more beautiful than I imagined. I am WV-girl and it is such an honor to have you in our world. You and I will spend some time together going over another central feature that makes a woman so special and by God's Grace of Kindness it is the one that most makes you The Magnet. It is with overwhelming delight and humble affection I get to go over that aspect that makes us irresistible". Then she walked over to Steady and briefly held his arm, "Hello Steady, it's good to see you again."
...Steady bowed slightly and said "WV-girl, I am honored and privileged to be in your presence and to finally be a part of your world". Then he glanced over at Sunshine and introduced her.
...After greeting everyone WV-girl told the group that they would be safe in her absence and immediately everyone except for me was placed in a frozen state.

 

[Steadygain]

...WV-girl was beautiful in so many ways. She represented the heart and soul of WV and somehow embodied the glory of that beautiful state. I could immediately sense a glowing presense emanating from within and that made her outward appearance a thousand times over even more attractive. Somehow that fox appearance all the more highlighted gentle, warm, and compassionate features. She was someone you instantly felt great to be with and from the moment we started walking together I felt on top of the world.
..."Carrie, you have such a beautiful glow, I feel like I'm walking with Moses after he came down from the mountain".
..."Thank you! I feel on top of the world. There is something about you and this place that is way beyond what I'd felt before."
..."Oh Carrie, you are so sweet and thoughtful but I can't take credit for the glow you have and the way you're feeling. Right before you arrived you bonded with your twin and both of you had the most glorious transformation occur. ****** had the dark cloulds of her past disappear and became a glorious white pearl and the whole world changed into the beauty that had so longed to come to life. You also changed by giving your life as never before and finding your other half, a part of your existence that was a gem of the highest caliber - and that brought The Magnet fully to life. For it is written that all these things would come to pass".
...Carrie was stunned at what WV-girl was telling her. "You mean I really am glowing"?
..."Carrie you have a radiance shining all around you. Your face is glowing and it makes you like a beacon of hope and love that is full of life and calling out to everyone".
..."Wow thank you! That's the most beautiful compliment I've ever had. What do you mean by it was written and all these things must come to pass"?
..."It was predicted hundreds of years prior that The Magnet would blend with her twin - the goddess ******, and with this 'The Great Transformation' would occur and she would enter our world to be approved by Squalebear. We would know you by your glow and by the glow of one who came with you into our world."
..."By one who came with me"?
..."Yes. Did you not notice the glow Steady has as well? For he had something very similar happen to him and his life and love sprang open as never before".
..."I did notice Steady's glow but thought I was seeing that only because I felt so wonderful. Wow this is unbelievable. I'm really beginning to see all this is true, that God made me in such a wonderful way to be an amazing instrument of His Glory. This is such an incredible honor but please know that I'm just me and nothing more than a piece of clay".

 

[Steadygain]

..."Carrie we are all pieces of clay and the fact that you so humbly acknowledge this is truely enlightening. But there are many others who genuinely share a similar view and even believe the 3 primary concepts of Love God, Love my neighbor, and Love myself. Yet due to the impact RELIGION has had on everything over the years, they see a more pure religion by simply believing in a Supreme Power. For them whatever you believe that to be will represent everything that is good and light giving. Is it hard to love that kind of concept"?
..."This has been done throughout the ages. The golden calf became the center of worship and the True God was forgotten. Every book of the Bible highlights how the influence of other religions BOTH washed away the true worship and the true recognition of God. We can see over and over how worshipping the stars and other gods virtually destroyed adhering to and recognizing the True God. So in the largest sense if we allow whatever we chose to represent everything that is good and light giving - then there is no limit to who and what could be the Supreme Power".
..."So the Supreme Power, or God, could be anything and everything from a snail crawling on the ground to a leave blowing on a branch. But what if we were to mean a generic Supreme Diety that is considered over and above everything - but we simply refuse to give it a name"?
..."Then to each it may be an acknowledgement of what only the Supreme Power could truely reveal. For one it may be swirling clouds that reveal the true gems throughout the world; for another it may be an inward awakening to God's presence in nature; for another it may be the revelation that the Light of God comes from God alone and many within the congregations are in darkness. Perhaps it is possible that some of these individuals can wholly be in tune with the One and Only Supreme Power and know the True Diety in ways that bring them into deeper and more meaningful revelations. But what good does that do if we can not point others to that Source - for that should always be the Ultimate End".
..."So in order to know God on the greatest possible level we need to have faith in a God that is personal and that wholly incorporates our beliefs and values and in essence takes charge of our life and the manner in which we live. Yet does not every religion do this very thing and does not every follower sincerely believe with the deepest convictions that there religion is true"?
..."Every religion can rightfully make the same claim and every follower can be equally convinced that their God is the True God and the Supreme Power they serve is the True Diety. Here the most important aspect is letting the Spirit of God take charge and be in control. Religion itself is mankind's attempt to reach God; where the truest and most pure religion would be one in which the Supreme Power, the Diety, the One True God, fills your life and brings out the Glory and Grace of His Love and Presence for all to see. In this sense we could all agree that the God of True Love and Life is the real God and that should be the center of all worship. This would lead us love our neighbors as God intended all along and all the more allow us to love ourselves in the most meaningful manner".

..."When you say the God of True Love and Life is the real God and should be the center of all worship, what do you mean"?
..."I mean that the True Supreme Power, the ONE REAL GOD, would have to be THE ONE that most brings the Ultimate Life and Love to all those truly yeilded to His Spirit. If such a God exists then there should be no mistake that the the Love and Life flowing from those yeilded to His Spirit - display the True Glory and Grace that gives this God His identity and character. This God would have to represent the ultimate Love and a Life fully committed to extending this love to others and you should equally see a true happiness that glows from within them. For this is the ultimate proof that ONE GOD is over all; and that ONE is entitled to all worship, honor, and glory".

 

[Steadygain]

..."How would we make this distinction to make sure the one we worship and give our allegiance to is really the right one"?
..."Perhaps the best way is by starting with Jesus and researching the prophecies specifically relating to His life. There are many prophecies and the historical accuracy of these prophecies shows that they were actually written about Him long before he walked in the flesh. The more prophecies you have the more the odds of any ONE PERSON being able to fulfill these prophecies is like one out of 500 trillion trillion. In other words only one person could possibly fulfill these predictions and therefore only one Messiah could possibly exist. It has been shown that the odds of one person being able to fulfill even a partial list of these prophecies would be equivalent to having silver dollars covering the state of Texas at the depth of a least 3 feet. Now let's say that you put red paint on one of those dollars and mix it somewhere with all the rest. The actual odds of one man fulfilling the prophecies would be identical to blindfolding someone and having them walk throughout the state of Texas and finding the marked dollar on their first try. This is really true so that would make Jesus appear like a good choice. Then look at His life and all He did and the way He lived His life and what motivated Him to do as He did. Lastly look at the evidence of how His Spirit lived in others and became the core of their existence. If the Purest and Deepest Love for others is the most defining characteristic then this would all the more point to the True and Living God. But none of that means anything unless it becomes deeply personal and the only way to know that is by having Faith that He really is the Lord and allowing His Spirit to become alive in you. Once that happens everything else is meaningless in comparison for finding this LIFE and the abundance of what that LIFE offers will yeild a Glory and Meaning that overshadows any other part of your existence".
..."Oh Carrie, that is beautiful and so incredibly well put. That ties in with my purpose exactly. A woman has a special glory and it is the deepest and most important part of her existence. She can not afford to just throw this out to everyone or to anyone; because many would trample this in the ground and that would be the worst thing that could happen to her existence. So a woman has to be very careful to safeguard this glory. DISCRETION becomes the most underlying feature of her life and she throws out just enough to test the waters but does not allow the deeper and fuller core of her existence to become distroyed. So with a woman - others need to read between the lines; they need to be very perceptive to these clues; and only as a woman finds TRUST does she open herself to all she is. It is largely this discretionary aspect; these secretive clues to her inner being that make a woman The Magnet and so appealing".

 

[Steadygain]

...WV-girl and I paused for a moment to gaze at our surroundings. We had walked by a lake with the splendor and beauty of Summersville Lake and were looking over a deep and wide gorge with a river on the bottom. Then she asked me if I saw any similarities between God's Glory and a woman's glory.
..."I believe God's Glory has been almost entirely lost in the various demoninations that have sprung up under the name of Jesus so that what was meant to be conveyed has largely been lost. With each distinct demonination comes a set of doctrines and rituals that set it apart and here THE TRUE MESSAGE becomes distorted. Here I believe that XL-entLady has the right idea; in that the true and most complete objective SHOULD BE ONE THAT STRIVES TO LET LOVE BE THE ROOT BEHIND EVERYTHING THEY DO. If LOVE is the basis for how we view God and honor Him and LOVE is the most defining aspect by which we regard one another - then LOVE will all the more be the core of how we perceive ourselves and we will be wholly in tune with the GOD of LOVE. For GOD IS LOVE and therefore a LOVE stemming from GOD will self sacrificing and not self seeking; it will be a love that does not count the wrongs against others, but will seek forgiveness and harbor no ill feelings; a LOVE that offers understanding over friction; harmony over strife; and humility over arrogance. For the TRUE LOVE of GOD is something that should be freely offered to all and given to each person without reservation. In the same light we could compare this to the glory of a woman. God's Love is the most sacred aspect of the entire universe and there are many that would abuse that love; that would boldly reject it and be hostile against it so to a large degree it must be offered with enormous discretion lest it be trampled under foot. In the same manner a woman's glory is probably the most beautiful and sacred aspect of our relationships with one another and so we have enormous similarities".

...WV-girl was deeply impressed and reflected on what I'd shared and then she asked, "What would you say to a woman who has been broken or a girl that has been shattered?"
..."I would tell her when God created the universe He made a woman to represent His Glory and the features by which a girl is formed inside the womb are as sacred and beautiful as anything He has ever made. They are very smart and pick up on things that only a girl can do. They have insights that make them uniquely qualified to be whom and what they are. Perhaps the most sacred feature is dominated by relationships; for nothing is more central to their make up. She is made to exemplify innocence and purity, beauty and charm, mystery and intrigue. Given the freedom to blossom and develop in a nurturing and stimulating environment she would undoubtedly reveal the glorious aspects by which God designed her. It is only with this understanding that a shattered girl or broken woman could understand how beautifully God created her and how beautiful her design really is. No matter how terribly she has been treated, or how badly neglected – what God designed is still sacred and beautiful and no person can change that, except for the person themselves. So my stress to this girl or woman would be do not let anyone rob that beauty from you; rather show the world who you really are. Then I would stress from the very beginning people wanted to see the world their own way and not God's way. They wanted to be in charge and pretend the world is theirs to do whatever they wanted to do. By not allowing God to have the proper perspective girls became objects and men used their power to force them into submission and often her status was reduced from what God intended. So the most important thing she needs to know is that mankind can do many things to shatter a girl or break a woman but her design is God's alone and the underlying design is extremely beautiful. Only after grasping this message could I begin to reach her. Then I would give myself wholly on her behalf and tell her let my love heal your wounds; let my compassion restore your self image; let my spirit and energy work within you until the pureness that's been forced into hiding has a chance to be discovered. Let true understanding bring you to the knowledge of who you really are, so that you can be whole and delight in your being. A beauty within is longing to be known, a tenderness and sensitivity that makes you wonderfully special. Open your heart and trust me to show you how incredible God's design really is. Don't let the nightmares and pains of yesterday hold you back anymore. Come and discover the beauty that has been hidden. Come and find the child within who longs to come to life. Come and let me help you find the strengths that make you special. Come and learn to trust and allow that trust to grow and I will not disappoint you or forsake you. I can help you tear down the walls that keep you from finding the faith you need to turn your life around. Let me help you to soften that heart to plant the seed of faith."
...WV-girl looked amazed. "Wow what a comprehensive answer."
..."I'm sorry to go on for so long but to really address a shattered girl or a broken woman a lot of ground would have to be covered. Most importantly it's not what I say, but what I do and how I actively treat them and remain in place until they're better."

..."I think the point about bringing things back to God and His design is very important and often so overlooked. This all the more applies to helping others see and find who God really is. God has actually made it so easy, if only people could see how much the physical and spiritual worlds blend together. The physical world is meant to link us to the Spiritual world so we can see how He is truly our Father." WV-girl then picked a flower and scattered some of its seeds in her hand. "A small seed of faith can be likened to the seed of a man. As a small seed take root and begins to grow in Faith, it brings us into fellowship with God through the Spirit of Jesus and His offering of Grace to us. As this Spirit sinks in and fills us we come to learn of God and know Him in the richest and most comprehensive manner. Then our longings and desires are wholly committed to growing richer in that Spirit – for now we want that Spirit to dominate everything – for that is the true source of Life and thus we strive to be Christ like and yield to Him. Just as a physical child is grown and nurtured in the mother's womb, we are grown and nurtured when that seed takes root. It is so easy for the child in the womb takes this nourishment so naturally and easily. It is not struggling to change in order to receive the nourishment and does not feel like it needs to do some things in order to earn a right to it; but it simply takes what is freely being offered. That is exactly how it was meant to be with us and this is why Jesus stressed to come to Him as little children. To let the seed of Faith take root is everything and once these roots come to life and find Life and all God so freely offers – then God comes to life in them. This little seed grows and we all the more realize God is truly our Father."
..."You are so right WV-girl. Something that was meant to be so simple has become increasingly complicated. Many seem to think they are not worthy or not qualified to let this seed take root. They are convinced it can't happen until they resolve this issue or do this and that – but that is the ultimate lie. God is there just waiting for that seed to take root; if only they knew how easy it really is. Trust in Him and plant your seed of Faith."
..."Carrie do you see the amber light on the edge of that cliff"?
...Across the gorge, on top of the mountain was a section with a large steep cliff. In the middle was amber light. "Yes it looks like it would be hard to get to, as you'd have to climb around the cliff."

..."That's where you and the others are going. I need to take Steady inside the walled circle so he can learn how to make Sugar's bloom even brighter. You see Steady is glowing because he is filling and overflowing. He has no idea he can glow even brighter but he needs to in order for you to make it over there. He will meet with Sugar shortly after her great transformation and will be able to convey what I show him to her; so in the end her bloom will have at least twice the glory it had before. It all comes down to love Carrie and striving with everything to give all the love you can."
...We then walked back to the group and a WV-girl returned to the walled circle I entered the frozen state. Once in the circle she called out to Steady and as he floated towards the circle his glow was beautiful. Steady was overwhelmed and had never felt so full of life and overflowing with love and all he could do was cry as he approached WV-girl. Yet she knew exactly what to do and whispered in his ear, "Its okay Steady, I know you're overwhelmed but these beautiful tears are holding you back from so much more." Then Steady felt her loving touch and the soft kisses on his neck made the muscles melt and all the tension disappear. Again she came back to his ear, "Baby, you just let those tears flow and soak this up and I'll show you how easy it is." From that moment on WV-girl went from one spot to another in the most tender loving manner; melting everything with soft kisses filled with love. With each passing minute Steady became like jelly until the moment arrived; the tears stopped and he was freer than he'd ever known. He still felt the glow and didn't see how he could possibly have even more but as he felt his chemistry blending with hers each little particle sizzled with electricity and glowed like a white hot fire. He and WV-girl became clouds bursting in flames. Whether it was minutes or days it felt like a lifetime; in fact it felt like 10 lifetimes and then he was back with the group.
...He was so bright that everyone except for Sunshine had to turn their heads. She was the only one who could look at him because she was one with him and fully incorporated his love and energy within herself. It was a beautiful miracle each of us witnessed as Sunshine took half of Steady's glow and from that moment on they had the most glorious radiance.

...Shortly after starting down the mountain the battle began with creatures coming from holes underground, from behind trees and rocks, and from the treetops above. By far the biggest creatures came from dark clouds above that took the shape of huge monsters and dove down on us. Buster was good at finding the ones hiding behind things and Birch was use to spotting anything that came up from safety underground. In TSP he could only poke fun at them for running to safety but now those pent up frustrations came out and he killed them as soon as they began to crawl out. Steady and CB fought off the creatures coming from the treetops and the larger monsters that came from the clouds but Steady was so bright he was an easy target and they came by the hundreds all at once. Steady fought them hard and used the decals on his belt to kill of thousands but in the end the largest monster had him by the throat and was killing him. CB shot the monster over and over and nothing seemed to phase it. Steady's glow faded and it got darker outside. That must have got Birch's attention and a deafening roar that filled the gorge was immediately followed by images of Birch at the monster's throat and CB and Buster tearing him down to the ground. Huge black pieces were thrown in various directions until only a 30 foot skeleton remained.
...Birch grabbed Steady's lifeless body and looked for shelter. After spotting a large hole he yelled for everyone to run into the cave. Just inside a sign read 'Shortcut to Amber Light'
..."That's impossible", I said in frustration. "The amber light is across the gorge on the other side and this is taking us deeper in the wrong direction."
...Sunshine looked at me with the sweetest expression and said, "Carrie with God all things are possible. There are patterns we do not understand, notes that are played in the universe we can not hear but are there nonetheless. Have faith my friend for you are The Magnet."
...Before I could respond Sunshine began crying and said she needed to help Steady. Then she lay next to him and fell into the deepest state of prayer and her glow began to disappear as Steady came to life. Sunshine weakly said, "Carrie help me, Steady is barely alive and I'm almost out of life and energy." It wasn't until that moment I realized she was sacrificing her life for his and I was there the next second with my arms around both of them. I don't think I ever prayed harder and I'm sure I'd never given myself to that degree but I poured every particle of my life and energy out and could feel God's Spirit filling me like never before. Birch, CB, and Buster said Sunshine and Steady got as bright as me and only when I let go did their light diminish a little. Sunshine and Steady lit up the whole cave and had more life than I'd ever seen before. I didn't care how I looked but wherever I went it was like floodlights lit the entire area.

...Steady took the lead with Birch behind him then me with Buster and CB to my left and right just behind me and Sunshine was in the very back. Steady, Sunshine, and I lit the cave so brightly that nothing could take us by surprise.
...After walking through the first of many tunnels a man with a tiger face, head and neck walked up and asked if we were members or guests.
...Birch was stunned, "Nnuut what are you doing here"?
...Nnuut's mouth dropped and he looked at Birch in total disbelief. "Birch I can't believe it. This is the first time you've ever fled underground."
...Birch was furious when he realized what was going on and where he was. He grabbed Nnuut by the collar of his shirt and held him up against the wall and said, "Listen buddy I didn't flee underground. I came here through the cave entrance and only because Steady was dying. A sign said this was the shortcut to the amber light and that's the only reason why we're here."
...Nnuut was a rascal and wasted no time pointing in different directions. "Down that way is 350z, Poolman, 12%, Gumby and about 30 others. Come on I can't wait to see their reaction."
...Birch just stood there rolling his eyes. "Okay so we won't go in that direction. Nnuut this is a serious situation. This is The Magnet", he said pointing at me. "We need to get her to the amber light as soon as possible".
...Nnuut looked at me for a moment and said, "No wonder you shine so brightly." Then he fell on his knees before me and begged my forgiveness for delaying our trip. He seemed so cute to me. I squatted down, rubbed behind his ear, and said, "Don't be ridiculous you are such a delight". Then he stood up gleaming from head to toe and said he'd show us the fastest way.
...Through the next tunnel we entered a large room with thousands of computer monitors and a man with a lion's face, head and neck scanning over them. "This is TSPtalk, he's the one that brought TSP into being".
...TSPtalk didn't seem to notice how brightly Steady, Sunshine, or I lit the area up. The only thing he saw was Birch. He walked up to him in a stupor and slapped him in the face.
...Birch said, "If you ever do that again I'll knock you through that wall. I don't care who you are."
..."Birch I thought it had to be a dream and I only did that to see if it was really you." Then TSPtalk got so excited he couldn't calm down. It was Birch's first time underground and he was right on the verge of sounding the alarms for the thousands of members and guests.
...I don't know what got into me but I felt desperate. I shouted for him to stop. "I am The Magnet" – what in the world, I never talk like that – "Birch did not come underground. He is my warrior and came in the cave entrance to save Steady's life and brings us to safety. We are only here to get to the amber light."
...TSPtalk began trembling and looked at me in shock. His legs buckled and he fell on his knees and begged my forgiveness with his head bowed in shame.
...I quickly went over, knelled down, put my arm around him and said, "It's okay my friend. You did nothing wrong. Just make sure that nobody knows Birch was down here."
