Onesong posted something similar on this forum in 2009, but I think we could all use a pick-me-up.

We are indeed awakening!
This is precisely what I mean when I use the line
"the revolution will not be televised" on my avatar...
I highly suspect we have always been in the process of awakening and "returning to the Light" (so to speak), but we sometimes become impatient concerning the "time" it takes....
Even though in Reality it takes no time at all...
We journey from Source for the sake of an infinite number of experiences, as per the prime directive of the initiating first Thought of First Source. Therefore we must always be in the process of journeying back toward First Source...
For we are One and the Same...
