Hi, everyone. I just received this note from a friend, who lived in Japan for many years, and is now in the US. Her friend sent an email to her about the state of things in Sendai, Japan. (It looks as thought it might not have been her personal experience, but something from Ode Magazine, but I don't think that takes away from the message.) It was so beautiful, I thought it would give all of us a bit of comfort and peace in what can otherwise be fearful times.
Much love and many blessings,
Kathy
A letter from Sendai

Things here in Sendai have been rather surreal. But I am very blessed to have wonderful friends who are helping me a lot. Since my shack is even more worthy of that name, I am now staying at a friend's home. We share supplies like water, food and a kerosene heater. We sleep lined up in one room, eat by candlelight, share stories. It is warm, friendly, and beautiful.
During the day we help each other clean up the mess in our homes. People sit in their cars, looking at news on their navigation screens, or line up to get drinking water when a source is open. If someone has water running in their home, they put out a sign so people can come to fill up their jugs and buckets.
It's utterly amazingly that where I am there has been no looting, no pushing in lines. People leave their front door open, as it is safer when an earthquake strikes. People keep saying, "Oh, this is how it used to be in the old days when everyone helped one another."
Quakes keep coming. Last night they struck about every 15 minutes. Sirens are constant and helicopters pass overhead often.
We got water for a few hours in our homes last night, and now it is for half a day. Electricity came on this afternoon. Gas has not yet come on. But all of this is by area. Some people have these things, others do not. No one has washed for several days. We feel grubby, but there are so much more important concerns than that for us now. I love this peeling away of non-essentials. Living fully on the level of instinct, of intuition, of caring, of what is needed for survival, not just of me, but of the entire group.
There are strange parallel universes happening. Houses a mess in some places, yet then a house with futons or laundry out drying in the sun. People lining up for water and food, and yet a few people out walking their dogs. All happening at the same time.
Other unexpected touches of beauty are first, the silence at night. No cars. No one out on the streets. And the heavens at night are scattered with stars. I usually can see about two, but now the whole sky is filled. The mountains are Sendai are solid and with the crisp air we can see them silhouetted against the sky magnificently.
And the Japanese themselves are so wonderful. I come back to my shack to check on it each day, now to send this e-mail since the electricity is on, and I find food and water left in my entranceway. I have no idea from whom, but it is there. Old men in green hats go from door to door checking to see if everyone is OK. People talk to complete strangers asking if they need help. I see no signs of fear. Resignation, yes, but fear or panic, no.
They tell us we can expect aftershocks, and even other major quakes, for another month or more. And we are getting constant tremors, rolls, shaking, rumbling. I am blessed in that I live in a part of Sendai that is a bit elevated, a bit more solid than other parts. So, so far this area is better off than others. Last night my friend's husband came in from the country, bringing food and water. Blessed again.
Somehow at this time I realize from direct experience that there is indeed an enormous Cosmic evolutionary step that is occurring all over the world right at this moment. And somehow as I experience the events happening now in Japan, I can feel my heart opening very wide. My brother asked me if I felt so small because of all that is happening. I don't. Rather, I feel as part of something happening that much larger than myself. This wave of birthing (worldwide) is hard, and yet magnificent.
Thank you again for your care and Love of me,
With Love in return, to you all,
Anne
Thanks Kathy, very beautiful.
Wendy
Beatiful. Hopefully this really is an indication of how the people of the world will handle the really difficult times, when/if they come. I tend to agree with Anne, that we're stepping up in terms of our evolution.
Wow, I wish we could bottle this sentiment and send it around the world to be used "in case of emergency."
This is why I feel that the Illuminati has underestimated the human spirit. When we are not acting from fear, humans have an incredible capacity for love and compassion.
Thanks for sharing, Kathy.
May love and blessings encircle, protect, and heal our lovely Earth.

Inspiring and reassuring....
What you said about the Illuminati, Noa, hits home. Not only have they underestimated the human spirit; they have completely misunderstood it.
The blind spot of the elite is enormous and profound. In their overriding arrogance (cultivated over many generations) they imagine themselves to be the paragon of humanity and the rest of humankind to be little more than animals, a herd to be shorn and culled at will. The reality is that they are coming from the smallest, most ignorant part of themselves (of all of us) -- the little, calclating "me" that pulls everything to itself but can never be satisfied with its "gains." They are parasites, wholly dependent upon the host.
In their blindness they mistake the nature of everything -- the world, people, themselves. They can't help but make miscalculations and fatal mistakes, and they have done this in spades over and over again. But they do recognize that humankind has some sort of a greater potential -- at least to wake up to what's going on around them -- and so they do all they can to dumb-down and suppress. But they seem to have no clue about the destiny of humankind to evolve and transform, or at least the enormity of that transformation -- and that they themselves are destined to transform, in time. Who knows, maybe many of them will be great spiritual teachers and beings in ages to come.
Does anyone remember reading "Hidden Hand's" comments from the original Q&A on Above Top Secret?
Who can know for sure whether or not his words were authentic, but if they are then the Luciferian power structure pulling the strings and playing the catalyst for jumpstarting Humanity's stuck in the mud spiritual evolution is an amazing act of Service to Others. They would be playing the "evil" part for the selfless sake of helping us in ways we may never fully understand in our present state.
And they (Lucifer, a 6th density social memory complex like RA from L of O) will have to pay the Karmic price for all the apparent evil entanglement in a negative 4th density environment until all accounts are settled, and then they, Lucifer, would once again be free to joyfully roam the Cosmos in search of their Heart's desire, other Service to Others opportunities, that which Lucifer was doing prior to this present agreed to contractual obligation lasting eons of time stuck in this severely limited earthly environment.
Be careful how you think on these things, where you put your polarized energy, because if they are, if Lucifer is what Hidden Hand says they are, he is, "it" is, then one could see clearly how inappropriate such polarized determinations are. And even if it is not what Hidden Hand says it is and the power structure truly is pure unadulterated evil, then polarizing focused determination essentially feeds energy to them, the very ones you would not wish to empower, much like when Darth Vader told Luke to give in to his hate, to the "dark side", much like what the recent info from AwakeningAsOne is getting at so perfectly...
Determining "them" to be evil while presuming "us" to be good is illusory polarized determination that is a pure energy "fix" for those it is directed towards. Is it possible that we need to be much more clever and circumspect about these kinds of things, about polarity???
I believe this is what Chris is referring to:
