John: you’ve been talking this past week about many things, including taking a break from Hug Peace. Why don’t I interview you and give your readers some insight into your latest thinking. 

 

Talia: Such as asking me questions?

 

John: Yes, precisely. Your readers, according to Hug Peace’s statistics spend more time with your Ask Talia section than they do with your installments, so let’s start with a few questions. You say you’re taking time off for other projects, is that correct?

 

Talia: Yes, this will be my last installment for Hug Peace for a while. My plan is to write a novel that hopefully can accomplish the will of peace through a new world order, and a view of spirituality that has to do with the latest in Quantum Physics. In doing so, I’ll not only be doing a lot of QP research, but I’ll also be recording through my inner voice the journey of this discovery, that, God willing, will take me off the mundane wheel of classical physics, where you’re born, you live and you die, over and over, seemingly endlessly, until enough is enough already. In this lifetime, I’m planning to ascend!  In the novel, I’ll go beyond the mundane of everything being relative to matter, which is what science currently suggests. I believe that we have transcendent potential to change our world for the better, with objects, such as our bodies, having connections outside of time and space. I want to look at life with a spiritual approach, and let it unfold as it will, with infinite trust that a multitude of guides (that have always been with me) will continue to accompany me on this journey. And, I’ll Google a lot, too!

 

John: Let’s talk a little about Hug Peace, its rewards and frustrations.

 

Talia: Foremost, HP has allowed me to take risks with my spiritual ideas, so-to-speak, it has given me a voice to express with. Also, bringing me brothers and sisters who are interested in some kind of renewal, who want their unity back, as it should be! As for frustrations, probably a bit of disappointment that other than my daughter, Rachel, not one person in my large family has ever commented on this enterprise (except, now that I think about it, my sister Patty, and her son, Everett) which makes me believe that I am a black sheep. But, really, even that’s not a problem. I am pleased to proceed on my own at my own pace with my own divine thoughts, and if need be, with only my own encouragement. Regardless of what people think or don’t think about my belief that we’re headed into a new world, add to that that we’re gods, forgotten as it has been, I am enormously pleased and proud of myself and my life efforts for peace, which, really, has been nothing more than being a peaceful person. On the other hand, I am not blind to the torrential situation that humanity is faced with today. I am a rebel for change because the decay of human values and the erosion of sense of meaning have reached epidemic scales. Therefore, it’s hard to imagine what could be more important than finding a way out of this mess, which is precisely what my novel will seek to do.

 

John: How has your blog changed you?

 

Talia: Change is always taking place within us all, all the time, whether we write blogs or not, but I can say that I’m grateful to God for assisting me with the writing of Hug Peace. In my case, the blog has helped to shape and soften the little brick of clay inside of me that has desired peace to be a reality for as far back as when I was a child and prayed for it to happen, even though I probably didn’t know the word peace at that time. I only remember that I was easily upset when I’d see people and animals in distress. I would ask God if he couldn’t change that because it didn’t feel right to me, and it literally made me sick if I let myself get obsessed with others’ suffering. That’s been the hardest part of my living all along, to see things that shouldn’t be. And while I have learned to go forward with the betterment for humanity that I know is coming (as in the Second Coming) it has still remained difficult for me to endure a world where suffering exists. What’s good for me to know is that I am still in the process of being molded and sculpted into an emerging goddess, especially as I enter my crone years of holding my own blood, and cultivating my maternal wisdom. With Hug Peace, I feel like I have a foundation to rest upon.

 

John: What has been your purpose in doing Hug Peace and how have you felt about that?

   

Talia: Throughout the past eight months of writing this blog, I have felt hopeful and joyous about a universal humanity emerging from the muck and mire of hell on earth, somewhat like when a butterfly is released from its cocoon, without knowing that that’s going to happen, yet it does, making the butterfly feel delighted to be free from limitations with its release. Very soon, I can promise you, because I know what’s coming, we’ll begin calling ourselves Homo Universals, which means we’ll be saying good-bye to our Homo sapiens status that has kept our minds limited and our bodies trapped in mass. Now, with God speed, we’ll be released into the universe of our divinity into our true home! Many clear indicators of signs have come to tell me that peace is on course, and that I’ve created this website for a reason. Mostly, so I could have a voice, which continues to tell me that I’m on the right path in my own evolution, especially in regards to the greater good of us all, even when I’m not always sure where I’m going. The bottom line is that I don’t care if I get lost, because where I’m going keeps shining a beacon of light for me to reach out for. Therefore, I take the dark tunnels with love, and think light, with the bottom line always being that I just want to help humanity go home.

 

John: And so where does that vision take you?

 

Talia: The winds of change are taking me into a higher frequency of knowingness, and I’m finding that I’m eagerly clipping my wings to rise above mass density; enticing my inclination to aim for even more freedom beyond this world, into new life! As a willing god who desires to know everything pertaining to the map that will take us home, I am allowing my friend the wind, who knows where he’s going, and who resides within me, as me, to take me into the uncharted landscapes that I desire. Namely, to the new world of love, where illusions don’t exist, just peaceful scenes of grandeur and glory for all life and all beings, where we’ll see with our new universal eyes that we are the magnificent light sources of life! And you can bet your eternal life on it, that I am ready to fly!

 

The truth is, at this point in my evolution I have nothing to lose and everything to gain, so I will unfasten my “limited” earth seatbelt and head my mind up into the stars, with a vision of home beyond, listening and learning and connecting with others more knowledgeable than myself on these matters. And then, I’ll take what I learn, using all my brain power capacity (not geared toward the sciences, for sure, which will make this a challenge my mind needs) so I can know and understand the unseen mechanics of what it takes to transcend one life into another, much more refreshing than this broken world, instantaneously, into other dimensions, too numerous to mention, in a moment! This is what I want to know, and this is what Quantum Physics is about, and so this is where I’m headed. I’m tired of repeating myself over and over again on Hug Peace that we’re gods. If you haven’t picked up on this already, then I have to attempt to remind you in a different way, such as writing a novel.

 

John: Why don’t you tell readers who don’t know you personally more about yourself and your life and what you’re grateful for.

 

Talia: Well, I’m a pretty simple person who is inclined to solitude and so I would think that most people might find me boring. In the quiet of my living (even radios bug me) I enjoy reading, writing, walking in nature with dogs, and being in love with you! I’m grateful for everything, right down to my sometimes aching bones, that now get to work in a more restful position in front of a computer, instead of being down on my hands and knees all the time scrubbing someone else’s floors, which is what I used to do before the decline of the economy took that away from me. Forget the money, no tears were shed. With more time to write I can now download the thoughts that come into my head, knowing that I’m an open and willing receiver for God to work through. I’m grateful for more time to cook and bake, as you are for me doing this, and for being able to spend so much time with you in our office and around the fire. I’m looking forward to spring, too, so I can get back in the yard and flower gardens. I’ll even planting my first vegetable garden in years with my friend, Sara up at her place where she has a flat open surface in her back yard with the sun.

 

And, of course, there’s my eternal gratitude for you, Bun (my name for John), who is the dearest and most fun-loving companion an earth being, such as myself could ever want for. We are in love and gaining more and more momentum in our relationship, making our lives together extremely happy for us both in our quaint and wholesome little house that sits on a hill, making us feel like we’re living in the south of France! With spring approaching, we’ll be setting up our living camp on the terrace, again, where we’ll soon be eating our meals, reading, writing poems and playing with our grandchildren, Desmond and Lucy (when Lucy and Rachel come from Montana in a month!) I’ll fold laundry out there and work in my flower gardens to meditate my thoughts. And I know, we both feel blessed and lucky that we have our wonderful animals, oh, my, who have made our lives incredibly rich, much more so than it would be without them! That we’re a month behind on our mortgage doesn’t matter. I, at least, know that the universe provides where John doesn’t care where and how the money comes, just so long as it comes in time to keep us from foreclosure; as long as he can work on a writing project, which has never been a problem. I love sharing an office with you, because I love seeing you write with such joy at the helm of your computer, which overlooks a cluttered view of the great outdoors, soon to burst on the scene with spring foliage that will hide our neighbor’s artifacts of farm life. When John’s writing he can easily block out the logistics of our finances, yet, produces broad smiles of relief when checks for this or that of his writing and business services comes through. By the way, if you need a catchy website, contact www.JumpStartNewBusinesss.com, because John’s the man who can do it for you in a way that’s wise, makes sense, is good looking and affordable.

 

John: Thanks for the promo, sweetheart, it will help me to help you have more flexibility to stay home and write your novel. But before we end this, is there anything else you want to say to your readers?

 

Talia: I know, this is getting long, but before I end this, yes, I do want to say that I love that I can take leisurely walks with the dogs in the mornings, that sometimes last for hours, and that usually begin with a visit up to my friend Sara’s house, where I throw tennis balls to her dogs, Bear and Reggie, down her long driveway, and walk through her doors like I own the place, helping myself to ice water and slices of lemon crème cake that she often has on the counter, forget the calories, I don’t count them. With plenty of dog treats on the shelf inside the back door for our dogs who absolutely count on them. I love having a friend close by to share good conversation and life stories with, who listens and laughs and has humor, and who goes to great lengths some days to prepare extra food for her family’s dinner, so that John and I can be the benefactors of her delicious cooking!

 

John: And what about surprises? Have you had any because of Hug Peace you can share with us?

 

Talia: Yes, that I made a girlfriend in a man who I can tell all to, on any subject, with Bob Wake, my friend and editor. Thanks Bob! I love our friendship. Also, a big one for me, probably the best thing that Hug Peace has brought me is my divine Cyber Space sister in Wendy Salter, who is a woman so much like me that you’d think that the two of us were cut from the same cloth! She lives and writes from Dorset, England, and like me, has two grown daughters, with grandchildren, and desires for peace to be a reality, too! We met, not coincidentally, through our websites with the connecting key word “light”, just to reinforce to you how important the light source is. If you’re up for a really good read, then you’ll want to check out her blog http://wendysalter.wordpress.com, also, most assuredly, you’ll want to read her new first novel, “Herstoria” A Life out of Time, that John, enchanted by the book, wrote a book review for, now posted on our Hug Peace website. Thank you, Wendy for it all, especially for your help and encouragement with my own novel, and for so much more than my words right now can’t describe, that is, until we speak the universal language of love, where we’ll transfer our messages through ‘thought projection,’ which you understand more than the rest of us, and which will be the new means for humanity to communicate and create with. Please, keep telling your brothers and sisters your stories that are our stories, too, because I just know, with a little pixie dust and a lot of love for life as you live life with, you’ll have us flying out the window with John and Michael Darling and yourself into “not” Never Land, but Ever Land in no time!

 

John: Thanks, Talia, I’m sure your readers will keep an eye out on Hug Peace for whatever you might have to say, whenever you get a chance to talk to us.

 

Talia: Well, a sure way to hear from me is to ask me a question, because this has been a lot of fun! And, thanks for coming up with this format. It means that I don’t have to write my last installment now, that I can now be free to go and take a nap.

 

May peace be with us all,

Love,

Talia

 

Tal – Of course you need to follow your heart and instincts on taking a break from Hug Peace. But may I weigh in on your decision with my two cents? I think it’s a mistake for you to stop blogging on Hug Peace now. You need to give it more time to find its audience. Additionally, I think you should be blogging more frequently with shorter entries. Hug Peace should be your online journal. It’s great that you’re going to be researching and writing a novel. But why not share that experience with your blog readers? Tell them about your research day to day, share interesting websites that you find about quantum physics and spirituality, for instance, or books that you’re reading on the subject. Share the process of shaping the characters and story line as you write your novel. Your blog entries don’t have to be long essays, they can be brief daily journal jottings. The ups and downs of the writing process. I really think that’s the ticket to building an audience for Hug Peace. – Bob
