Truthful reflections feeling like a gentle shoulder rub... #angelicmessengers 🪶🕊️🌹🌠❤️‍🔥🌞🌍🪷🐉🧿

Entering mode say yes to connection invitation... Feels absolutely essential!

Realities and soothing reflections. Hadn't thought about Bali recently, but over the years I've missed sundresses and the breeze on my hair on my motorbike cruising through Ubud while Mama Bali speaks in tongues through me.

"When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the morning light, for your life and strength. Give thanks for your food and the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies with yourself." ~ Tecumseh (1768-1813) Shawnee Native American Leader

I am in the process of (long standing desire to) releasing (stuff from my storage) but it's been challenging because I am "nomadic"... Trying to decide if just bringing a bunch of clothes to a thrift store and letting the rest go to a good will bin is the way or if it's worth taking photos and selling some items online. Where might be best to do that? Before I got uprooted I'd participated in a couple of my friend's rebel market and had a booth with a couple of racks of recycled fashion and boxes of random little things to rummage through. That's not available and not realistic atm, however. It was kind of a good little entrepreneurial p2p circular economy opportunity. I'd bring my massage chair and also some cedar bunches I'd crafted. I do need the cash and the first route (thrift store and good wil) is sure to produce very little but will help shed weight. I feel @roya ୨୧ might have a good answer for me?

I believe I am witnessing myself experiencing some kind of true breakthrough in my attachment patterns. Insecure attachment style is so damn hard to heal... It's kind of a hardwired thing from childhood. I've gone through hell and back and it's been an incredibly devoted journey to that over the last 12 years of singlehood. Thank God, for not allowing me to be in any incorrect romantic relationship and instead grow, learn, heal and evolve through short lived flings and intense quick immersions with the perfect mirror to catapult me to the next level of relating. I witnessed it gets better every time... The best part is I get more solid within myself every time. And right now I am feeling I really am over anything and anyone that feel depleting. My sanity, peace, deep knowing and body wisdom I've been cultivating and given myself the space energy time and commitment to for over two decades is a sacred treasure and I am not all that interested in exchanging just to be in any random companionship. I seem to be in quite the fierce protective and guardianship boundary setting mode about all of me at present and I am loving witnessing this shift. Like, Yeah, NO!

Why is everyone such damaged goods man?!?! OMFG, Chiron enters Gemini for the first time in probably a half a century... We are getting a preview for the next three months of the wounds and patterns we are going to be healing.... From spring 2027 for 6-7ish years or something. I am so over this whole lil pattern of working so damn hard to shapeshift and accommodate and emotionally overgive to try and fit in, so I can belong... Truly it's your loss. And it only brings me peace when I leave. And I am.

Just a half an hour reading updates on the tech advancements and I wanna cry 😭 Feels overwhelming and I don't even know where to begin and how to catch up. 😭 Why is everything moving so fast? I wish I could just walk barefeet and sing songs by the Quan Yin altar soaking sun and watering a garden or something.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot... Been working this chocolate shop owner to get Bitcoin payments activated on his square pos since March. Check out Choquiero Cacao Cafe in Capitola or Nevada City, CA if you are in the area and make sure to pay in Bitcoin. @Cash App @npub1ds3h...hzcn @jack

I haven't looked at numbers for a bit.... Just trying to not get syphoned into fear... But like yikes 👀 and also have you noticed how expensive everything has gotten? I went to the coop I used to frequent in 2023... Thought, maybe I should get a half a rotiserry chicken... It was $20. I was shocked. I am pretty sure I could get a whole chicken for $18-$24 when I last shopped here. Wtf?!?

The divide is sooooooo wideeeeee on so many levels...

Good morning 🌞🎎🐉🪷🪴🎶

My roots ❤️‍🔥🌠🥹🕊️🌹🧿

Watched Michael last night. Never knew "Beat It" was filmed with real rival LA gang members (80 👀)... so inspiring to learn this fascinating story. I am still a bit of a bawling mess this morning with the one and only Michael Jackson on my phone screen. Indulging in the feelings of this deep deep emotional well ❤️‍🔥😭 The story: "Beat It" was the third single from Michael Jackson's *Thriller* album, hitting No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in spring 1983. The song itself was deliberately anti-violence — Jackson wrote it as a message to a young man newly drawn into gang life, essentially telling him that walking away from a fight isn't cowardice. The lyrics are about life on the streets and gang activity, something Jackson himself was very detached from [SongFacts](https://www.songfacts.com/facts/michael-jackson/beat-it) , having been raised by tutors and famous since childhood. (Interestingly, Jermaine Jackson has said the song drew partly on the family watching real rumbles between rival gangs from their front window growing up.) When it came to the video, Jackson took a big personal risk. His label, CBS Records, refused to pay for his ambitious vision, so he spent roughly $150,000 of his own money to make it his way.

When Michael Jackson United Real Street Gangs For A Legendary Music Video

Streets of Los Angeles were tough in the early 1980s. A war was raging. Two giant rival gangs, the Crips and the Bloods, fought for territory. The ...

He hand-picked director Bob Giraldi after seeing a news commercial Giraldi had made about an elderly blind couple who stayed in a changing neighborhood and threw a block party for their new neighbors — that spirit of bridging divides clearly appealed to him. ## The inspiration for using real gang members Here's where it gets interesting, because there are two layers to the "inspiration": **Giraldi's creative vision** wasn't actually *West Side Story*, despite the common assumption. Giraldi said his real inspiration was the streets of Paterson, New Jersey, where he grew up — he listened to the song repeatedly and realized it was about the tough kids he knew, everyone trying to seem tougher than they really are while being "cowards at heart." [SongFacts](https://www.songfacts.com/facts/michael-jackson/beat-it) **The decision to cast actual gang members was Michael's idea, not the director's.** Giraldi has been candid that he didn't like the idea — directing actors and dancers was hard enough without adding "hoods." [Webnode](https://truemichaeljackson.webnode.cz/true-stories/bob-giraldi-on-directing-beat-it/) It was Jackson who went out and recruited them, working through the LAPD's gang squad, convincing them that with enough police presence it would be a smart and charitable thing to do — getting rival members to spend two days together making the video. [Webnode](https://truemichaeljackson.webnode.cz/true-stories/bob-giraldi-on-directing-beat-it/) With the LAPD's help, roughly 80 rival gang members were gathered to appear in the video. [The Detroit News](https://www.detroitnews.com/story/entertainment/movies/2026/04/24/fact-checking-michael-the-new-michael-jackson-biopic/89773099007/) The deeper motivation was Jackson's own. As Giraldi put it, Michael was always about peace, always looking for some sort of peace offering — bringing the Crips and Bloods together was his idea. [Webnode](https://truemichaeljackson.webnode.cz/true-stories/bob-giraldi-on-directing-beat-it/) The video literally dramatizes this: Jackson plays a peacemaker who breaks up a knife fight between two warring gangs through dance. It wasn't smooth. Giraldi recalled they were almost shut down the first night — film sets get boring fast, the Crips and Bloods are mortal enemies, and they started getting on each other's nerves. [Webnode](https://truemichaeljackson.webnode.cz/true-stories/bob-giraldi-on-directing-beat-it/) And Giraldi's own memories are notably mixed — in a 2014 interview he said he doesn't have fond memories of the shoot and tries to put it out of mind. [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Giraldi) The gamble paid off culturally, though. Along with "Billie Jean," "Beat It" helped Jackson become one of the first Black artists in heavy rotation on MTV [SongFacts](https://www.songfacts.com/facts/michael-jackson/beat-it) , and the video is widely credited with helping break the network's color barrier. So the short version: the *aesthetic* inspiration came from Giraldi's blue-collar New Jersey roots, but the bold choice to bring real rival gang members together came straight from Jackson himself — as a genuine, if risky, peace gesture.
