Dedicated to Brian Keith Summers 1972-2024
To start, I should acknowledge that I’m having an amazing life here on planet Earth. Some aspects of it are almost surreal in the sense of where this kid from a small town in Wisconsin has been and what he has experienced- including meeting some amazing people! In addition to this, I enjoy excellent health, strength and vitality that I’m grateful for each day. The only downside to this is that people my age keep trying to get me to “slow down”, retire to an easy chair and talk about physical afflictions. Not likely to happen. Part of what keeps me healthy is that I stay active and exercise almost every day. I like being outside and many of my favorite things to do require a measure of health I’m committed to maintaining. So don’t take what I write next as my current state of mind. It’s just a momentary lapse into how I could feel if I didn’t have an enthusiastic and expanded perspective.

When I was in my 20’s and early 30’s it seemed like I had a long life ahead of me full of an infinite variety of experiences and explorations. I had no idea just how finite and fleeting life on Earth would seem as I grew older. Looking back now, I regret the time I wasted, the challenges I didn’t rise to, and the opportunities that slipped away because I was either indecisive or afraid. Mostly I regret the years I spent trying to live up to the expectations and gain the approval of others who were only in my life to act as Control Agents and keep me locked in the superficial 3D Matrix.
Yes, I made some bad choices, had some wasted years and I often wonder why it took me so long to wake up to my Authentic Self and begin to truly expand in Spirit (consciousness). I’ve said many times, “if only I knew then what I know now, I would have conquered the world!” Which leads me to comment on one of the great ironies of life here on this planet. By the time you’re wise enough to lead a truly fulfilling and productive life, you’re often near the end of it. Not that I’m planning on leaving the Earth experience anytime soon, but the clock is always there ticking away the moments which seems to move faster the more years you accumulate.

At some point your reflection in the mirror begins to mock the ageless person within that is your spirit. You still feel young and vital inside but your reflection tells a different story and your body may betray you with signs that your fitness is a fleeting illusion also. People around you start to treat you differently, as if you’re frail and need help doing simple things. All of this brings home the point that you’re no longer one of the young people, you’re now one of the old. And unfortunately, in a society that worships youth, age is often synonymous with irrelevance due to the encouragement of narcissism by society and the media.
If this all sounds rather melancholy and even a bit grim, I want to express to you that there’s another perspective, which I have adopted which is summed up by this quote from Mark Twain:

“Aging is a case of mind over matter- if you don’t mind, it don’t matter.”
Just as everything on Earth is rigged to make life a struggle, the opposite is true on most other inhabited Planets because they are not artificially kept in low vibration by Shadow Government Controllers (click the link to learn more). Rather, they are bathed in Source Energy and truly reflect the will of the inhabitants to have happy and long lives in societies where love and abundance rule. In some cases, these planets are high tech with expanded consciousness and in some case they are low tech but so spiritually advanced that technology is not needed to make their world idyllic. The norm is to remember past lives and the wisdom obtained, and life is very long with youthful appearance and strength maintained. Many of these planets are “super-habitable” meaning that conditions favor an easy existence for all life forms that call it home.
This point of view has me spending more time looking forward to what comes next and less time looking backward in wistful memory. It’s also the knowledge that life here on Earth is meant to be brief and difficult. A soul that chooses to incarnate here does so for the reason of obtaining Spiritual Growth (Consciousness Expansion) that would take many more lifetimes to achieve on one of the other, more stable and higher dimensional planets and civilizations in the galaxy.

All one needs to do to be eligible for incarnation on one of these “paradise planets” is to be a vibration match. In other words, if you want to have a life on a planet where love rules, you have to become a loving and caring person in word and deed. The same goes for the afterlife (which should really be called the between-life in my opinion).
What level you will inhabit in the spirit (energy) realm and what type of experiences you will have is determined by your beliefs and who you are. In other words, you experience what you are a frequency match to. Since the Astral is outside the material world where time exists, you may stay there as long as you feel it’s serving your Spiritual needs. If you’re a soul who has grown through experiences and you decide to venture into the Material Illusion again you have a multiplicity of choices regarding which planet, culture and time period you want to incarnate into. You can even choose to do one of your previous incarnations over but make different choices this time around. Alternate timelines make all this possible. I might mention that if you’ve failed to learn from your experiences and have let them lower your vibration into the regressive frequencies, you can expect another go-round on Earth with a repeat of your lessons. Flunking out is no fun!

For those on the ascendant path, other options include who you will partner with in your upcoming incarnation. Do you have a soulmate but the harsh conditions of Earth made a mess of your attempted relationship? You can jointly plan to incarnate together on a high density, super-habitable, tropical paradise planet, sail the oceans, explore the islands, raise a family and/or build a life together that brings you both supreme happiness and joy for a thousand years. Of course, this is just one example. Whatever idyllic life you can imagine, you can have. In the Astral or in the Material. It’s your reward for allowing the Earth experience to expand your consciousness and raise your vibration. For choosing service to others over service to self.
Perhaps now you understand why I’m not despondent over getting older. In addition to realizing that souls don’t age but stay forever young, I know it’s bringing me closer to a grand reunion and my next adventure. Over the years, as my consciousness has broken free from the interfering noise of 3D, I remember more and more where I came from, my past life adventures and who my Authentic Self is. I long to reconnect with my Star Family and I look forward to being reunited with Earth friends and family that have already returned to the spirit realm. It will be a grand reunion indeed and I look forward to planning my next incarnation with so many extraordinary people I’ve bonded with along my soul-journey. With our incredible imaginations freed from limited thinking, I have no doubt that what awaits me and my companions will be nothing short of magnificent!
