*an inspired piece ~ for all who feel “forgotten”….
Are you one of the forgotten ones in this land we call America? In this realm we call Earth?
We all have stories. Some are more painful than others.
Many of us did as we were told. We finished school. Got a degree. Went out into the world with a flaming energy only to find out our degree wasn’t wanted. Wasn’t important. It even over-qualified some of us.
We kept at it. Kept putting ourselves “out there”. We believed in ourselves. We knew we had something to contribute. For some of us, this worked. For others, it didn’t.
That’s when we slowly became “forgotten”.
We knocked. No one answered.
We reached out to counselor’s and organizations seeking help. While well-meaning, most of these institutions were just another arm of the very system’s that lied to us – and only allow certain members in.
It was during this time many of us began to “feel” something was off about this reality so we searched for answers.
Days. Months. Years – we searched.
And we learned. Expanded. Some were able to find new venues – and it is for most of those that they stopped the search.
Others though – we continued to search and the more we searched – explored – the more horrified we became.
Many of us began having strange health conditions arise.
Throughout all of this a solid knowing of what’s out there and what’s in here began to take form. And we began to speak.
And the more we spoke, the more the system and system supporter’s tried to silence us.
We were attacked through money. Through health. Through relationships.
We continued to be WHO WE ARE.
And yet the attacks continued. Personal efforts – not honored.
Exploring topics such as manifestation and the like only became a path of frustration as we learned – NOT ALL ARE “ALLOWED” to make it here.
In a game – there are winner’s and there are loser’s. It is sick. It is wrong on every level.
Throughout the journey, friends and family fall away for a variety of reasons. They either no longer align with who you are…they are “afraid” that a bit of you might “rub off” on them.
All want that personal security net.
The personal flame of truth within continued to burn – until one day – after taking too many hits – some just collapse. Give up. Beyond surrender.
For others – the fight continues – the refusal to “give up” keeps one going.
But still – the knowing that one has been forgotten – by society in general – knowing one is nothing more than a commodity – that your value is no longer seen – is a pain no one should have to experience here.
And yet – many of us do.
You can know yourself – fully love and believe in yourself.
And yet if you don’t have others doing the same, you too can become one of the forgotten.
Here’s to the Remembering – of all – FOR us All.
