The Computed Connection…

Posted on by serenitisparkles

Last night, in my dreams, I saw my late father. He found me in the woods, and as I ran to hug him, we shared a moment of deep connection. We talked about where he would go next, but there was no clear answer. Tears flowed, and we held each other tightly. Though I was sad and didn’t want him to leave, even in my subconscious, I understood he had to. His comforting words were, “At least I’m here now.”

I truly believe we were there—in that brief moment, our subconscious energies connected to a higher source, allowing my dad to see me as the grown person I’ve become. It made me wonder: isn’t everything connected?

Just like a computer plugs into a power outlet and energy flows, we too are all intertwined. The warmth of our love can be felt like a hug, even deep within our subconscious.

Consider AI for a moment. Data centers powered by electricity process vast amounts of information, and as billions of people interact with AI, the technology learns and grows faster than ever before. We are witnessing computers absorb human interaction at unprecedented speeds, edging closer to what some call Super Intelligence.

So why don’t we view our own human energy in the same light? The more energy—positive or negative—that we emit, the greater our collective influence on humanity and the world around us. Because energy can neither be created nor destroyed, I believe that when our physical bodies fade, the energy within us doesn’t vanish. It simply transforms. But where does it go? Perhaps it’s always here, waiting to be channeled. Maybe pieces of another person’s energy stay with us, embedded deep within our subconscious, allowing us to connect across time and space.

Why should the idea of my dad visiting me in my subconscious be dismissed as false? In reality, he was here once. Isn’t it possible his energy never truly left?

We live in a time clouded by technology, where computers often think for us, dulling our feelings and disconnecting us from our souls. Yet, emotions like love, hate, sadness, and joy remain incredibly powerful—more than we realize. We’re simply underutilizing that power.

So next time you’re with someone you love, hold them close. Take in every sight, sound, and scent that surrounds them. In that moment, you’ll catch a glimpse of the incredible energy we all share—a connection to each other and to something greater, all flowing from the same source.

What Happens When You Forget to Look Up?

Posted on by serenitisparkles

Heads down, souls absorbed into the mass stream of media.  Drowning our humanity.  

When is the last time you looked in their eyes, felt the vibration of a soul connected to another.  

Can we just be programmed out of it.    Can our collective parts all be mirrored in a room alone, looking down into the “phone”?

Should it even be called a phone at this point, or should it be called an alternate state in the universe.  

The ones who are awake, remember what a mother’s hug feels like or the touch, taste, smell of everything. 

They say the eyes are an opening to our soul.  Well what if we opened them up to take it all.  Our will, our thoughts, our time.  Us.  But what if all we are now is people who once had people?  What if what we are is the people alone.  Lost?

Love is…

Posted on by serenitisparkles

As stated in the Bible, 1 Corinthians 13, “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs.” This is the truest statement of what love is. As perfectly imperfect beings, we find ourselves searching for this kind of love, but just as we are imperfect, so is our love.

So what is…an imperfect kind of LOVE. If we are fortunate enough to know a couple who has stood the test of time and still stands together, then we have at the very least seen the example of it.

So many people fall in and out of love, but that word has been used so loosely over time that do we really even know what it is? The short answer is no, but if you have ever truly loved another person then you understand these truths.

Love is constant. It is ever flowing. Like a river. It is given and received everyday with every breath. This doesn’t mean that its always happy and easy. In fact, it is when it is hard and sad that we see the truest form of love.

A love so deep rooted within the person that they not only won’t let go, but they can’t. This love lives in the fabric of the person and is as necessary to their existence as the air they breathe. Therefore, when times are the hardest and the world seems to be falling apart, you hold on tighter because it is imperative to your survival.

Loving someone through their journey in life means that you love them every step of the way. Some of their steps will be completely infuriating to you, others will be hard to handle, yet you will love them because life without them is even more unbearable.

When we see a couple who has committed their love to each other for decades, understand that the couple has had to endure not just one journey but two. They have had to find it in their heart to accept all the good and bad that comes with the other person and still be committed to their love. They have walked thousands of miles together, climbing mountains, falling along the way, they have endured storms and sunshine, but they continued on, together.

Love is holding on. Love is holding on no matter what because you can’t see a life without this other person’s journey attached.

Love is respect, loyalty and faith. Love is having faith that the other persons love is as real and strong as yours that it will last.

Love is unconditional. It is so unconditional that even when you can’t stand being in the presence of the other person, you don’t let go because LOVE won’t allow it.

Love is a safe place. A place where when the world is too heavy and you just can’t take one more step, your person carries you until you can stand once again.

The love we experience in this world isn’t perfect, but if you are lucky enough to find someone to love you through the test of time. Never let them go because a life with love will always feel like home.

WHEN THE NOISE IS SILENT

Posted on by serenitisparkles

Locked in the moment, in a space in time, the noise is silent. 

But why?

The noise created by digital things, emails, text messages, phone calls, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tik Tok, Reddit, LinkedIn.  News streaming across your view, unable to press the off button because you love all of it.  You love the busy.  You love the noise.  Distraction from the world around you.  Your job is underwhelming, your relationships aren’t solid, your life is merely spinning.  

Every new day hits you harder than the last. Disruptions in your “plan” by exterior parts of your life drain you. 

You strive for the perfection you see around you, but your days don’t fit the same profile.

Alone, without connection though connection surrounds you.  Waiting to feel alive, to feel…

Loved.  

All of a sudden, the noise, all that runs around you, comes to a halt.  In that moment, you feel love.  It’s captivating and warm.  It’s beautiful and everything that was distracting ceases to even exist for that moment.  

When you allow yourself to feel love, to be locked in to the most important moment that lives, you live.  And it reminds you that the noise doesn’t matter.

Are you stuck on the wheel?

Posted on by serenitisparkles

It’s metaphorically perfect to describe life’s monotonous cycles to the wheel because it is a cycle. It is where most of us will spend our time in this life.

Most of us will step off the wheel, whether to fall back or step forward. The ones that fall back, have gotten lost into their past life of mistakes making it even harder to surpass the wheel. The ones that step forward, will take a few small steps and revert to the comfort of the wheel. Some of the ones that step forward will grab a hold of that forward momentum and keep pushing, but even they too will find themselves on the wheel again. Like a tragic addiction, even though they know the outcome, they find solace in the arms of comfort.

It is what lies ahead, in the unknown, that everything they ever wanted exists. The road is straight, yet there are many wheels along the way. Those wheels that they spin symbolize the complacency they are addicted to. Complacency is easy. It is effortless.

As soon as they step off of the wheel, the first push is hard, but it is the steps in the future of their forward progression that will be the most difficult. Because life isn’t a test of whether or not one can get off the wheel, we all get off the wheel. It is a test of ones endurance and grit that will keep them off the wheel so that they can experience the things unseen and not yet experienced.

Give yourself the chance to remain off the wheel. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. If for some reason you find yourself back on the wheel, jump off as soon as you realize you are spinning.

If I didn’t know you…

By knowing one another intimately, empathy develops. Empathy is the ability to understand and share feelings of another. It is experienced as one human being moves through the world and connects with other humans and life forms. It is the only tool that can combat hate toward one another. It can not be taught and must be individually learned.

There are countless stories of people becoming friends after generational family racism and hate. All it took was for one person to sit at a table with the other. Every moment captured in the presence of someone who differs from them is a moment that can change the course of a that person’s life.

The reason so many generations before us relied on separation and hate was because in many instances, integration and true connective moments didn’t exist.

There are still places in this world where one type of person has never met another type of person. Whether the difference be race, religion, gender, or sexual preference, there are some communities that are simply ignorant to being in the presence of the other.

Ignorance is the greatest threat to empathy. It is necessary that we are able to find a common ground for all of humanity to realize that we are much more similar than we are different.

Our deepest wishes and hopes for ourselves and our family members almost mirror that of anyone else despite their differences.

Once a person walks with another through different life experiences, that person begins to see the world through the other persons eyes.

Our differences make us interesting, but our similarities will allow us to have the compassion that we need to not destroy each other.

In the end, we bleed the same, dream the same, and fight for what we love.

The Escape Drug…Social Media

Posted on by serenitisparkles

Intertwined with the digital space all around us, we sit, lifeless as our minds expand. The question is, do they expand for the betterment of all of us, or do they destroy our pieces and chip away at our bodies, one quick high at a time? Some might say, social media brings us together, that social media unifies humanity, allowing us to see the inside of each part of our world. Others might say, it is the greatest danger to all of mankind. Few will say, I don’t actually use it.

When most of us hear someone say, “I don’t really use it”, for a moment we delve into their mindset. But how? How do you stay connected to the outside world? What could you possibly do with your day then?

The actuality is that those people have filled their day with other kinds of moments within their life circle. Moments of life happening around them. Is what they do more fulfilling? Maybe not, but it is different. What we do within social media is escapism.

From the moment we log into the “network”, we are connected. Our mind races through the content and our bodies stay still. Hours can go by, and you are still locked in. You’ve lost yourself, in the physical world, and flew off into the digital realm. Using your imagination to keep the inquiry into others lives going. Like a fantasy, that can take you anywhere with the mere tap of a finger. You find answers to your thoughts. Reality is heavy, but Tik Tok so light, thus you dive into to the fluff.

The strings of our hearts being plucked with every post. We escape. Into a different world then what is in front of us.

But what IS in front of us? Like so many people struggling to put their family before addiction, we need to remember that to use this for connection is powerful, but to allow the “network” to connect you is a tragedy.

Far From Over…

Let it be in us to know 

Let it be in us to grow together

-Sereniti Sparkles 2021

With reports of variant Covid outbreaks around the world, we prepare for yet another wave of torment.  A wave that will pull at every heart string and bring us to our knees over and over.  

If I stand still and look at what is to come, I can’t possibly have enough space to cherish what is in front of me.  

If so many variants lay ahead, why are we not focusing on what is in front of us.   What is in our control.  Wouldn’t that feel better? 

If we know that when someone smiles it feels better than a frown, then we must also know that putting importance on our bodies and our minds must be our number one priority no matter what is ahead.  

WE NEVER REALLY KNEW THOUGH DID WE?

Was there ever a day in your life that you woke up sure of every element of your future 24 hours?

The answer is absolutely not.  

Sure, there is a grey area that some might say, well, if I knew I could stay home all day, I knew I was going to see the next day.  But if we use logic and our spirit, we know that to be incorrect.  

And what did we do before, when we were uncertain of each day?  We moved on.

Moving on isn’t about ignoring what is ahead.  Moving on is focusing on what is important today.  How can we be the best at who we are?  How can we learn from these viruses so we do better?  Isn’t that what we are here for anyway?

Pipeline Hack Prepares Us For an Ominous Future

Posted on by serenitisparkles

Over the past 30 years, the US as well as the rest of the world has become more reliant on technology and networking capabilities. Computer science controls most of our major functions as a society. We have been able to supply more than ever before because of this technology, yet the danger to humanity is also more present.

It isn’t that technology itself will kill us off, or harm us directly. It is the indirect, the ability for someone to hack into a system that millions depend on for their livelihood that will be the greatest threat to us all.

The Colonial Pipeline hack is merely the beginning of what the future holds and what we should fear most. Criminal hackers, looking to gain more money and power, shut down a system, and sent the entire East Coast into a frenzy.

Go to a gas station today, watch as the need for gas, and limited supply turn people against each other. Watch as people fight to grab the last gallon of gas. Imagine this lasted for weeks or months. People would lose money, be unable to provide food/shelter, be unable to leave their homes, all because the gas pipeline was interrupted. Think about what that would do to our inherent nature to survive, by any means necessary.

When we as humans, put all of our main sources of daily life into a computer system, we become weak. We are at the behest of any and all hackers capable of interrupting these systems.

Today, it is the gas pipeline, tomorrow it could be the food chain, or the water supply, or even the entire banking system. Can you imagine if any of these were taken over by hackers? It isn’t if it will happen, but when and will we be prepared to survive?

The World Has Become More Scared, Not More Dangerous

Posted on by serenitisparkles

In order to explain this notion in its entirety, and to have my readers fully understand the full meaning behind it, I’m going to take you back in time.

Let’s talk Serial Killers, for instance. Killers with the most gruesome and dark stories, repeated over and over because they couldn’t yet be caught. These killers were able to evade the system and torment cities around the country for weeks, months, and even years until their capture. But where are they today?

The data suggests that the peak in serial killing happened in the 80’s. Story after story, life after life lost, and news reporting on it. Yet today, we hear of these stories, as they still do exist, but the rate has declined to almost nothing compared to what they were in years past. It’s just very unlikely that today, with facial recognition, that anyone get away with murder after murder.

Media is where these stories were told, but in the 1980’s we had a light flow of media around us. When we would turn on the tv, or read a newspaper, there these stories would be, but we would have to access them. We would have to make the first move before we indulged in the days horrors. And only the big stories would make it across the country for all to read or view.

Today, everywhere you look, every few seconds of your life, you are being told a story by the media. The media is no longer something we access, but something that has access to all of us. Imagine the one who told scary stories needed to keep your attention all day. Do you think you would fear more, or less? Think about it.
