Has your idea of what makes a good friend changed as you’ve gotten older?
Because my oldest friendship has never changed in over 50 years. I have several friends I’ve known for between 20 and 30 years. My ‘most recent’ friendship must be around 17 years.
What keeps you together is more than the old chestnuts of love, loyalty, presence. It’s something that tells you that you’re meant to be friends no matter what, so give up, accept it, make it work because it isn’t going to break.
You’re connected at a far deeper, other worldly level that you cannot explain. Similar to finding ‘the One’. You may get frustrated, angry, mad as hell with each other, but it will always come right because it just has to.
Humans may have lots of words for this but in truth few understand it. That deeper connection that cannot be explained better than ‘it just is’.
Except I believe that I do understand.
Soul Groups
In my way of living my life we believe that we are family in spirit. A huge group of souls deeply connected over too long a time to calculate. Some come here for a life, the others watch over them. My guides are part of that group.
Spirit Guide sounds so fancy, but in truth it isn’t. It’s simply a member of your soul group keeping an eye on you and dispensing excellent advice and guidance. As Amos always says, he’s wise because they have all the knowledge available over there and they’re not stressed by a human life.
He tells me I could guide him if he came across to visit. That’s the only thing he’s ever said to me that I find hard to credit, but I would give it everything and never take my eyes off him.
I can visualise a little boy in a restaurant. “Where are you going Tommy?” “To the bathroom mummy.” “I’ll take you.” “No it’s okay my lady will take me!”
In a very real way I am so grateful to him. It’s one thing to have a more natural take on it than some would expect – angels, trumpets, lightening – but another to ever take him for granted. That will not happen.
He is my friend, only he goes back an eternity, and the relationship is exactly as natural to me as my other friends. It’s not life and death, it’s who lives where. That simple. Earth Realm, Spirit Realm.
Obviously my friends who came across with me to share the experience are part of that group. We once did a meditation in group and Katrina and I saw exactly the same thing. Us together in Ancient Greece being scolded for wild behaviour. It looked like fun. We were grown women at the time and we’re just as bad now.
What’s his name that I married is definitely my soul group, I knew him instantly at his first hello. I will get ‘a look’ for that comment, but then his first pet name for me was “my little bucket of camel dung.” Better than “Now what have you done?!” 🤣🤣🤣
Makes you wonder why that particular, very unusual pet name though. Desert nomads in the past? Who knows.
Oh dear!
I’m on one of my favourite subjects, an integrated life, mind, body, soul. The power of three.
You don’t have to believe anything about the human/soul connection as long as you never ignore your intuition and gut instincts.
I find intuition is a knowing and gut instructs tend to be a warning. Whatever it is don’t do it! But that’s just how it feels to me.
None of what I believe is woo-woo, illogical, or fancy. It’s my real, practical, everyday life alongside a dear friend for whom nothing is too much trouble. It’s how I live, what I personally know, not believe, it’s proven itself to me over and over again.
Exactly the same as my life alongside Tony, my other soul friends, and my soul group cats. The story of how I found each one is honestly incredible. 14 times!
However, don’t get me started on that. My life has been in a different place since I discovered all this at the end of the last century, and I have so many lovely memories, wonderful true stories, and the odd gift, that I could eulogise forever.
Even my medical team are unbelievable. I’m beginning to think that the hospital and GP surgery have large magnets they put out when they want a staff member, set to attract ‘Earth Angels only’.
Right, the full stop at the end of this sentence is the last one for this blog, before I go back several thousand years and start regaling you with my story. I’d be fascinated to hear yours too.
Best love
