I really do not have a plausible reason for the ever increasing number of people that are becoming aware that there is so much more to our world and slice of reality than is normally acknowledged;

my personal jump in awareness, the dawning realization that things were not as they seemed and perhaps there was a lot more than what the MSM and the PTB were shoveling, started after recovering from a Pulmonary embolism in 2000;

ever since then I have noticed an underlying edge to most people I encounter, the feeling that they view reality thru a glass darkly.
yet I meet more and more individuals that are not content with the staus quo, seeing for themselves that things just don't add up.

I have always had a fascination with ufo's and outer space since the days of my childhood watching Star Trek, and have read any and all materials available for the last 4 decades.

I hope that all will share their own personal moments of 'awakening' with the rest of us, and the changes in their everyday experience since then for comparison, for the urge to move away from populated areas and the electric techno-polluted cities and urban areas steadily grows for me.

An old cabin with a creek, candles, and an outhouse sounds good these days.

I have reached a personal awakening.
It started a couple of months ago after an extreme head injury.
I died for the third time and remembered why I am here.
Everyone needs to stop the hate, and lead more happy lives.
Believe in what you may believe in but know, to have hope
of something greater is beneficial all in itself.
Accepting that there are higher beings of which I am not
in a position to speak of.
You must acknowledge their existence for, they are the ones
responsible for all of these strings getting pulled in this
#ed up puppet show.
Everything is happening for a reason.
Time has always been, meaning, we aren't living in actual present times.
Everyone will experience different roles and partake in different events
that has already been played out before.
Question everything. You'll learn more of life's secrets this way.

As with you, I know that I am here for a purpose and a reason, that life's plan was laid out long ago; the pity is most people cannot concieve of what it is like, for there are no words to describe it.

Seeing and accepting that there is a higher power at work in my life was the door that let me accept that there is a reason for each event, and it is up to us to chose, and choose wisely.

if only we as a people could learn to live as one people, kind, caring, and compassionate, the journey would be a lot more fun; but never take anything for granted.

Thank you for sharing with us.

hi witness, thanks for stopping by

I believe that we all have that feeling upon us that it is time to get ready, to prepare, that something is definitely headed our way.
Will it be a shift to a higher dimension? or just a change in our way of perceiving reality?

or maybe just new problems with the toilets backing up?

I've had some type of awakenings for most of my life and than went back to sleep. It wasn't until around 9/11 that many of these past lost time memories started to return.

What evidence have you come across that shows there is an increase in personal awakenings? I'm not so sure I agree with your theory.

Scientist,

most of it is based on personal confessions and statements from various people I know, and from many different posts here in different threads; that is one reason I worded the op as i did, to see how many would respond, how many are out there that will share their point of view with us, for there does appear to be an under current now amongst a lot of citizens that something is afoot, and are no longer content with idling along, going with the flow,per se.

Perhaps it is just being caused by the hard times and economic struggles many are facing, or the stacked piles of MSM "media spin" we are bombarded with daily.

For me, here in the gray area, it simply means that I can tell of my personal view of et al, and the realization, for me, that there is indeed far more happening around us than most ever notice, and there are those among us that have seen thru at least part of the veil woven by the PTB.

thank you for your post. DO you have any to share with us?

Definitely sounds like all the traumatic events from 9/11 triggered a release for you; I hope it is something that will benefit you on your journey.

thanks for sharing this with us.

contemplate the internet.
Its a physical manifestation of our inner net so to speak. Think about it, we are all about to wake up and realize our psychic nature, I mean, look at the product industry, we have the internet, cellular and satellite, wireless communications up the wazoo, what would you imagine comes next in that line of thought? telepathy maybe? Omnignosis? Things are getting faster and faster all the time. More and more people are connecting with each other, literally, and spiritually. What we are doing physically, is an allegory to what we are doing spiritually, and soon, everything will be connected with everything else instantly.

I agree with you seeker that once we lift ourselves from the mundane routine of how the world works and we can see that wars and money and the nine to five grind is what really imprisons us we add greater dimension to our existence.

I live without credit cards, cell phones and self help books and I feel so much more spiritual than ever before. I one day looked at how I was slaving away for the man...the income tax, the interest on bank cards, the competition to get ahead was leaving me spiritually behind. I would live without a computer but newspapers and MSM are nothing but a sedative to lull us into believing all will be o.k.

The only drive I have right now is to learn and prepare for a better future for myself and hopefully the planet. Setting aside those hard earned dollars for me and a home where I can be self sufficient.

My personal awakening happened at 5 this morning.

Sorry... Had to. I fear that many might have an "awakening" by following false profits and were robbend of the genuine feeling of the awakening.

Being told something and then believeing it is not an awakening in my book. Or, perhaps my definition is differant than yours. But again, that is the beautiful thing about awakenings.. They are personal.

Great thread! Starred!!!

Right On Seeker..All I need is a small piece of property under the stars instead of the street lights, a roof over my head with a green house and a wind turbine so I don't have to burn my candle inventory.

It is wonderful to make a living by creating something, now I would like to never enter a grocery store again.

Well, I think that to some extent you're correct. However, I don't see it in as great of numbers as I would like. I think most people are still blind to what is really going on. I suspect that will always be, barring some magnificent event, which I don't see ever occurring.

For me, I really began waking up when I was fifteen years old. I started reading and studying when I was thirteen. However, a true sense of what was happening, particularly with our government, didn't come about until 1993.

Honestly, I think I realized that something was askew with the Branch Davidian tragedy. I realized then and there that there was a power play going on, and I didn't like the way it smelt.
