This is the last of what Loki asked of me to post for a while but since it’s the first day in the new year, he is wanting for me to post this. As always, if you don’t fully understand, that’s normal. If the message is not for you, it won’t be clear, either. Only time will tell either way.
There is hope coming. I know that you see the darkness and there is nothing but despair and tragedy around and there is something to be said for the fact that the beginning of this year isn’t going to be easy. I know there are things that will happen that will not be great, and for that, I am sorry to say that you do deserve them, unfortunately. Sometimes we have to backtrack for a while in order to get to where things start to show through the cracks and sometimes we have to make it be easier than we want them to go so that you’ll see in time that it needs to be more complicated.
You don’t win an argument by telling the other person they are wrong and leaving it there. You win by showing them that there is more that is possible that they are not seeing. Showing them that you deserve to have a voice and an opinion and showing that anything that you see with them is not simply just a moral argument, either.
Debates and things all have a place and political differences are just ways of showing that a moral argument is not fixed nor is it ever a place for decisions to be made.
Unfortunately, we see that this world is coming to a point where political differences won’t matter in the long run. Things are much more complex than you would ever imagine them being.
But you are not alone here. The fact that you are reading this means that there is more than what meets the eye and you aren’t going to prove to everyone that you are the moral majority by screaming out what is right and what is wrong.
Things aren’t black and white and if someone shows you that that is the case, they are trying to control you. Things aren’t on fire yet but they can be and they will. I will show you what real chaos is. I will show you the loss of control of people who believe they have it right and good and what happens when they fail with their argument. Everyone sees their true colors when it is revealed that they are false. They are better off continuing this grandstanding of morals and politics and when that is over, the real fire can begin.
I am going to wait for it all to happen, and when it does, my plans will be executable. My position on things is not normally black and white at all, but rather, liminal and normally unexpected. My political party is reserved for the bonfire and the ashes I sew will be dust by the time you will ever truly see who and what it is you are dealing with.
That’s a promise. It is a mistake to think otherwise. It is also a mistake for you to think you know more than you arguably do. It will lead to dismissal of the Divine and it will break your soul in two. Don’t wait until the end to make a decision about who should continue on. Don’t wait until the consequences for your actions and mistakes show to do something about it. The time is now and your actions will be much harder than you would expect them to be if they were to wait until the end of the story, but I assure you, it will be worth it.
The time is nigh to begin the process of making your world new and whole again, but first, the fire. And then, the party. Strengthen ties with the ones who are supposed to see this through to the end. You’ll know them by the way they work in times of struggle. Strengthen bonds with those who struggle in times of strength, because they will fall short in the times coming.
The moral arguments of the past are fixed to destroy you. Even the gods must face the consequences of those decisions made before. Ragnarok is past due and you are past the point of saving. You aren’t going to see the end of it all in this lifetime, but I assure you, the end result, even if it is not here, will make it better for you to endure the coming days and weeks and months. It will give you hope and orders to keep marching despite the fatigue of your bones and your hearts.
Your strength and endurance answers the call. The people who expect you to fail are going to burn. That is the way of things and the way things have always happened. You don’t win by doing what people expect of you. You fail by bonding to the beliefs that have shifted your world into boring altruistic, remorseful, martyrdom of heaven and hell and good and evil. That belief system has shattered and it is obvious.
Follow me, and I will show you a thing or two about remorse and leadership. I will show you the great leaders who will fall in your time, and the people who you thought deserved their position who fail miserably. In all regards – not just Christian and not just in politics. Your fate is deserving of being handled by the gods now, and if They don’t see it, then you certainly cannot, either. The gods have failed to show you they are deserving of worship and it is to the extent of the moral high ground that you stand on that makes a difference.
We work together – not apart. We cannot show you we belong in your shrines and homes unless the situation that put us there in the first place is a strong enough reason for you to do so. Until then, we are just chips in the game that is set with bigger rules than even we, the gods, could imagine.
You are braver than you believe and stronger than you expect. We will wait for the other path to show itself and we will wait for you to make the decision. It is what we expect and it is what we are hoping for.
Until then, keep doing what you’re doing. It’s working – even when you don’t think it will.
