One of the hardest lessons I’ve had to learn is this…
Not everyone is meant to wake up when you do. Not everyone is meant to see what you see, question what you question, or understand life the way you do.
And eventually, you have to become okay with that.
For a long time, a lot of us spend our energy trying to pull people with us. We explain more. We show them what we’ve found. We try to help them connect the dots. We think if we can just say it the right way, maybe they’ll finally see it too.
But people wake up in their own time, in their own way.
Some people need chaos before clarity. Some need pain before change. Some need years. Some may never see life the way you do at all.
That does not make your path less real. And it does not make theirs yours to control.
The real growth comes when you stop needing everyone to understand you.
When you stop chasing agreement.
When you stop trying to rescue people from a reality they are still choosing to live in.
You can love someone deeply and still let them walk their own road. You can speak your truth without needing them to accept it. You can keep your heart open without shrinking yourself just to make someone else comfortable.
Your job is not to drag anyone awake.
our job is to keep walking in truth. To keep becoming. To keep living what you know in a way that speaks louder than any argument ever could.
The people meant to walk beside you will find their way there.
And the ones who don’t…
You love them anyway, and you keep walking.

Notes to Readers:
Normalizing leaving people in the world they’ve chosen is the story of my life. I left my home state to attend college in another state, leaving behind relatives and friends. And the process has continued for the entirety of my adult life, leaving people behind, not intentionally, but following some inner guidance that wouldn’t make sense to anyone but myself. And now? I’m watching people choose to either resist change or adapt. It is always about choice. Do you comply with what you’ve always known or do you make the choice to step out of your comfort zone.
It is a violation of personal sovereignty to attempt to push someone into changing when they are not emotionally prepared to take that step on their own. Evolution is not a race, it is a process… one which you may not recognize is what is actually happening. It’s not just about a national leader, a military operation… it is about humanity choosing or not to continue their soul evolution beyond what they were allowed or prevented from doing.
So, if there is someone in your acquaintance, whether family, friend, or co-worker, allow them the ability to make their own choices. Waking up isn’t an easy process; it wasn’t meant to be. It is a daily testing of intention, focus, and vibration. You will be tested on a daily basis. I have been.
Am I sorry I left people behind? Yes, and no. Actually some of them chose to leave me behind as my actions did not fit into their interpretation of reality. And I chose not to fight it, but to let their judgment and prejudices to dictate their own decisions and subsequent actions. I have learned to let the judgment slide off of me like water off an oiled jacket. It is isn’t malicious on my part; I simply don’t care. Does this mean I’m without empathy? No. I just see things differently and have done so for a very long time without instruction. Have I altered my course? Often, when I felt discomfort or learned something new that added to my knowledge and self-awareness. Older readers can certainly verify this as fact, having witnessed the changes in the content I post on my blog. I am evolving, therefore, I change, but I will not attempt to change another. So, I encourage all my readers to question everything, to listen within, to do their own research, to observe and be willing to change their minds about subjects when confronted with the Truth.
Disclosure is coming hot and heavy now, but as Elena Danaan stated in her latest Star Nation News #120, the public is being brought up to speed on what changes are already in effect and have been for some time. The latest item is the establishment of Space Force Academy… which is the beginning of Star Fleet. We are already living in the opening stages of our collective Star Trek future.
Breathe, everyone.

Sunny's Journal 
Hi Sunny, I am grateful for you. Thank you for your service. I wrote the below article on my substack account last week (soulselfawakening). I think it is fitting for your posted article. Feel free to share. Namaste’ and happy Tuesday! 🙂
Awakening Stages:
These stages will vary a little bit depending upon your unique energy. My hope is that the below information will help you understand your thoughts and feelings as you begin to realize your reality has been a well scripted illusion that is controlled and manipulated by external forces.
Think of awakening like climbing a ladder where each rung is NEW information, kind of like new data being downloaded into your awareness. The ladder has 50 rungs on it, but you don’t step on each rung in order like 1, 2, 3, 4…it’s more like 5, 8, 22, 38, 12 etc. Each of us awakens differently. The more you awaken, the more you come to realize that YOU are the one who chooses how you perceive the world. No one else actually makes you mad, sad or grumpy – you choose that expression all by yourself! The same holds true for happy, glad and loving!
Stages of Awakening:
Stage 1 – Living within the matrix illusion.
At level 1, People are consumed by materialism and consumerism. You are controlled by the narratives presented by the media, education, politics and religion. You do as you are told and rarely question “authority”. You THINK you are good person because you follow orders and obey all of the rules. Your critical thinking skills are primarily driven by your egoic desires and have less to do with society as a whole. There is little regard for the impact of all of your choices (shopping, food, entertainment, procrastination and waste). Your life is spent chasing stuff, status and titles. You need approval from the external world to validate yourself. You believe in the program that says: we are born, we go to school, we get a job, we get married, have a family, retire and die. This is ALL there is to life, and that’s just the way it is! You believe that you only live once, you need a savior to get into heaven, and for some you might even believe there is no GOD/SOURCE at all!
Stage 2 – You start to question the narratives.
At this stage, you aren’t sure what’s going on yet, but you start to wonder about all of the fraud being exposed. You’ve heard whispers of malfeasance within the medical establishment, or you are wondering why they are pushing transgenderism or socialism, or even communism. You hear about certain things like chemtrails and instead of believing what you are being told, you actually start to think about it. You begin to question the validity of the information you’re being told by the news, or the doctors, or the politicians, etc. But, you haven’t actually begun to do your own research just yet. You’re really just trying to go about your life, but you aren’t really sure which way to go. You feel kind of in limbo at this stage.
Stage 3 – You start to notice cracks in reality.
Stage 3 is when you start to open up. You’re not just wondering WHY so many people are behaving strangely, you are beginning to sense that it feels intentional. You’re really wondering what happened to common sense? You are not only questioning everything that you are hearing, but you are now researching it for yourself. Your curiosity begins to awaken. Maybe you hear a story about the government creating Lymes disease, or you read an article about the Annunaki. Or maybe you hear about Tartaria and you wonder what this is, and what happened to this amazing civilization? Or maybe you hear about the fraud within our big pharma medical institutions, or you learn about the toxins in our food and water supply.
At this stage, you begin to really wake up. You feel lots of discomfort in this phase. The more your curiosity takes hold, the more you discover. And the more you discover, the more upset you become! This is the beginning of the realization that much of what you thought was true was in fact a well-crafted narrative to keep you in obedience. You begin to ask,
Things are really upsetting you now. The more you find, the angrier or more confused you become. At this point, you may decide that you can’t take anymore truth, so you stop searching for new information and try to force yourself to just go on with life. You do your best to avoid anymore truth and you figure there’s nothing you can do about any of this new information, so why bother. Who cares that our clothes & beauty products make us sick, or what difference does it make; we’re all going to die anyway, so what’s the point?
FYI…this stage isn’t fun…so go easy on yourself. Take a break, find something that brings you joy. Learn how to meditate or start detoxing the heavy metals and parasites from your body. Many people stay at this stage for a while. It could be weeks, or even months and for some even years. It’s OK! When you are ready, you will keep going!
Stage 4 – Mental Fracturing.
You have now found enough inconsistencies within our history, within our medical treatments and our governments that you feel lost. You slowly accept that you were lied to about everything! Your head is swirling with confusion and in a lot of cases anger. You may feel stupid or become depressed at this stage. You are now realizing without a doubt that you have been manipulated. You have been lied to on a grand scale. You gradually accept that every institution has been built on lies which were designed to keep you numb, dumb and powerless! You may go into a major pity party kind of mode. “How come I didn’t see this sooner? Why didn’t I ask more questions? Why did I believe what I was told without questioning the integrity of the information?” For some, this is when the dark night of the soul occurs. You become ungrounded. You don’t know what to believe, you don’t know what is true. You feel totally lost, and you feel as though you are standing in quick sand.
Your EGO self slowly becomes softer and you notice that you no longer have the same ambitions you once had. You no longer CARE about the same stuff anymore. You can see the absurdity of the slave system, the 9-5 worker; and you feel so disconnected from everything. You likely feel very abandoned at this stage because you realize that as you have found all of this NEW information, you don’t know what to do with it. You try talking to your friends and family, but they are still at stages 1 or 2, so they don’t understand anything. They have not found what you have found. So, you feel all alone, completely isolated from the world. Every time you try to share your new found knowledge, the people around you look at you like a deer in headlights. They think you are crazy or they’ll call you a conspiracy theorist.
A natural separation occurs at this stage. You become incompatible with most people at this stage. On one hand you are excited to share your truth with others, but you soon find out that 95% of the others aren’t ready to hear what you have to say yet.
{It is NOT easy to accept that everything we have been taught is a lie. So, if you are at this stage, go easy with yourself. It is important to find others who have woken up. If you don’t know someone who has already woken up, you can find groups by searching terms like: The great awakening, Ascension, 3D to 5D, spiritual awakening, lightworker, expanding consciousness, etc.}
Stage 5 – Questioning your life.
At this stage you begin to ask, “What does this mean? Why did I “wake-up” to this information?” You begin to wonder, “what is the purpose of life? What is MY purpose? What am I here to do? What actually matters to me.” Instead of seeking external sources to validate what matters to you, you begin to take ownership of what TRULY matters to your heart. This is where you start to find your footing again. Instead of following the narratives of old, you begin to fully understand what those old stories were really all about. CONTROL! You begin to remember who you really are. You begin to remember that you are a child of Source/God. You grasp that YOU were created by the supreme being…just like everyone and everything else. You begin to see life as sacred. You begin to see that there is no need for an intermediary between you and God. You have direct access to GOD. You accept that you live within God’s creation, therefore you are a part of that creation. And this is where it starts to get good. You realize that you are a soul, having a temporary human experience. At this stage you begin searching and reading about ALL types of spiritual development. You investigate Buddism, Taosim, Vedic, Gnosticism, the dead sea scrolls, out of body experiences, remote viewing, channeling and what exactly IS consciousness. You investigate energy, the human bio-field, chakras and how thoughts create your reality. You open up your awareness to all forms of spirituality in search of finding YOUR inner truth.
You may stay in this stage for a long time. UN-learning what we THOUGHT was true doesn’t happen overnight! Plus, it is mentally enjoyable to learn all about these other teachings and it distracts you from the noise of the corrupt matrix illusion. It also takes some time to find YOUR way! You may even find that this is where you feel most at home and decide to become a teacher of these spiritual practices that you have now found.
Stage 6 – Remembering the Soul.
At this stage you are learning that the world is based in duality. Left/right, up/down, right/wrong, good/bad, etc. You then begin to replay your entire life through this lens. Every interaction gave you the opportunity to participate in duality so you could experience ALL aspects of creation. You can see how everything is a learning experience. Cause and Effect now has a whole new innerstanding! You replay your life and all of your choices and you can see why everything happened the way that it did, and now you can begin to forgive yourself and everyone that “wronged” you. Everyone was simply playing a role based on your own desired expressions. You wanted to know what betrayal felt like, so you called a friend to help teach you this. Or, you wanted to know what divorce felt like, so you called a friend to help teach this to you. Regardless of the circumstances (good or bad), everyone in your life played a role so that you could learn.
Thank them! You wouldn’t know what you now know without their help!
Now that you are aware of the cause for these emotions, you begin to make more conscious choices. Instead of reacting to every situation, you respond to them. You control your responses and realize that you no longer require duality. You are now in control of your choices, instead of being manipulated by external authorities. You are reclaiming your divinity at this stage. You are remembering what it means to be a child of God. And, many of your innate gifts begin to come online. (heightened intuition, personal gnosis, telepathy, healing abilities, and maybe even gaining access to the akashic records)
As you are remembering, you may still feel like you aren’t quite sure which way to go. You may go into hyper isolation mode. You need a lot more alone time, you can only “handle” certain types of people. You’ve probably already let go of most of your relationships at this stage; You seek others who are “open minded” as you can no longer give your energy to people who are stuck in the controlled illusion. You will delve into alternative healing modalities, meditation and you begin to realize that your body is a temple in the highest sense. Everything you allow into your awareness has an effect on you. So, you set out on a quest to become healthy in all aspects of your life. You move towards all natural and whole foods; you are totally dedicated to detoxing the body from the harmful chemicals and radiation. You accept that there are “higher” forces intentionally dumbing down and causing harm to HUMANS. You can see thru the lies and deception. You see ALL of the programs the controllers use to render people helpless. You can see how everything that you put into your mouth and onto your body and into your mind affects how you feel (physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually)! Unity consciousness begins to make sense.
Stage 7 – Seeing life thru the soul.
You learn to be at complete peace within yourself. You are NOT concerned with outer world projections anymore. You no longer care what others think of you. You now see life as the most beautiful and perfect expression for learning. You see that the only way for a soul to expand is for the soul to experience ALL aspects of creation. You have slowed down your thoughts and become an observer. You are in complete control of your PRESENCE. You see how being fully PRESENT is the gift of life itself! You aren’t controlled by your past experiences; you are completely free to experience the NOW! You watch nature in action without interfering. You notice that the bees are always happy, they fly around from flower to flower doing their jobs in a perfect harmonious balance. They are NOT attacking you, they are either protecting their families, or they are curious about you, but they are NOT out to get you. They are just living their lives, just like you. You begin to see how everything in nature works in perfect harmony, there is no competition. Everything in nature functions without the need for human involvement. Life becomes the most beautiful expression. You begin to notice how your energy affects everything around you. You start to “play” with your energy. When you go out to the store, you smile and interact with others and observe how THEY change when you are near. You only project loving and positive thoughts to your surroundings, because this is how life is made beautiful. Your heart expands everywhere you go because you see how others are affected by your kind and loving presence. You wish for everyone to feel loved and appreciated! At this level, you begin to believe in the impossible.
Stage 8 – Acceptance that all is consciousness
This stage is for the highly advanced souls. This is where you see everything totally connected. You see yourself as an energy being instead of just a physical being. You understand that you are a unique energetic expression and you consciously direct this energy to help others heal their traumas and overcome their fears & limitations.
You realize that we are all part of the One “planetary” consciousness field. This is the recognition and comprehension of the LAW of ONE! Here you direct your unique energy in such ways as to uplift and benefit the whole. You no longer create division as you have realized that we are all ONE.
You sit in nature more, you spend more time in solitude and you can project your consciousness anywhere you desire. You are a divine spark of source light, eternal and forever expanding.
Stage 9 – The final stage of self-realization and the activation of CHRIST Consciousness.
Christ Consciousness is a term that refers to a spiritually evolved state of being. To be “Christ-ed” or the “anointed one”. When we think of Jesus Christ, we see the qualities of love, devotion, courage, and the surrender of self within his teachings. The term ‘Christ Consciousness’, refers to the embodiment of these qualities in our lives. At stage 9 We become the living embodiment of the Christ!
Smile!
No matter where you are in your awakening journey, allow yourself the space to grow. Everyone of us wakes up in our time, so don’t feel bad if you are still living within the illusion. If you are in the early stages, it’s ok. Gradually allow yourself to question everything. Take some time each day to just sit outside, alone and think. Think about what LIFE means to you. Think about why you are afraid of whatever it is you are afraid of. Think about what love means to you. Allow yourself to ponder everything!

Very well said. It helps to hear kindred spirits validating what I, myself, am going through. This has been one of the hardest parts for me…not rescuing, not trying to convince loves ones of what I know. I have kinda been beat up for trying to and finally felt I had to self protect. This led to me stop trying to inform and help. I then worked on getting comfortable with letting others go at their own pace…not easy. I am an empath so it was really painful for me to see them in their confusion and difficulty and not do anything to address it and also not comply with what they wanted from me. I pray a lot about this and ask God, Spirit, to guide me in my actions and reactions as far as others go. This has been a great help. I call it red light, green light. I will ask for help in when to be “there” for someone and I check into my intuition to feel if the path is open or closed and then I act or not. This has been a saving Grace of which I am very grateful.

Someday soon, those of us who managed to awaken early will be able to hold the hands of those who are in deep shock at the continuing revelations AND beginning to question everything they took as truth. We hold the frequency while they heal and in doing so, we heal each other through compassion and empathy. Eliza
