Alarms Sounding Everywhere...

4/10/2020

Hi there! I've been working, of course, and haven't had time to dilly-dally.  However, I have noticed there are more folks out there questioning where this virus came from and why.

Tobin laughs at my incredulity over everything that's going on in the world.  But he still says this is just part and parcel of the regular scheme of things, the grand plan. This has all happened before and will happen again before the truth is revealed, AGAIN, to the world.

I'm not so happy about that, but I am more than willing to accept the possibility that the worst is nearly over for my country, if not for the rest of the world. Tobin assures me there are only five more weeks to go before this whole Coronavirus mess is essentially over for the U.S.

I don't know if that's true, but Tobin has never before steered me wrong. So I'm gonna wager that he's right and I'm gonna do my best to stop worrying about my elder family members and stop being so disappointed that my family (which has celebrated 100 Easter Family Reunions in a row up to now) is for the first time in 100 years not going to have it's family reunion celebration at the same location it has been held since before I was born.  In fact, the reunion has been postponed indefinitely at this point.

​My loved ones are safe from me and my child. Neither I, nor my child have visited my aged loved ones since early March other than to wave at them from outside.  So I am doing my best to protect them - even though I miss them terribly.

I'm still working each and every day at my essential job and I'm still hoping to get the remaining three books out sometime soon. But it's interesting to take a step back and look at this whole thing from an objective point of view... especially given that my best friend, Tobin, views it as something that's natural, that's going to happen several more times before our society will finally be introduced to the truth.  Many of the world's governments have already started steering folks in this direction, but there's still some way to go before we can be shown the truth.

Back to this virus... Relatively speaking, my family has remained untouched by it - and thankfully so. Many people cannot claim the same and my heart aches for them. I cannot adequately express my grief for those people and their families who have lost loved ones.

Again, Tobin says this is just one of several pandemics (and other issues) promised by those who truly rule this world and we all still have a long way to go before this is over. Of one thing Tobin has assured me... the way of life we knew before the introduction of this virus will never return. We all must learn to live within this new dynamic.  Apparently, it's essential that we all be exposed to this (and a few other) viruses so that we can become immune before being introduced to a whole new life in which we would be exposed to all manner of viruses and bacteria to which we as humans have not yet had a chance to build up an immunity.

I have no doubt Americans can do it, but it's not going to be easy. There are too many of us who are old enough to remember "the good old days."

However, this too shall pass, I assure you.

The whole issue of being alone is most definitely affecting me and I miss being around those who know me best, who are willing to listen and converse with me on certain matters.  Tobin won't come around me during this "stay-at-home" period and I'm admittedly feeling quite alone.  What's worse, it upsets me that people have to die for this.  Why is death necessary to prepare us for the truth?  I don't understand.

Again, Tobin laughs at my naivete.

I used to feel a bit superior in my knowledge of the things to come.  But now, I just want it to be over.  I don't like hearing about all the deaths... all the sick and suffering.  I don't like thinking about it..., I..., I think I need another big ol' drink!  

But no matter what happens, I know one thing for certain.  We, as a people, will make it through this.  We will go on and we shall overcome every obstacle in our way.  If I've learned anything from my time on this earth, it's that humans can do anything they set their minds to.  So, even as alone as you may be feeling right now, no matter that you and I and scores of other people out there may be sitting at home feeling like there's no one else out there who could even care one whit about us... we'll survive.

I'll write more later.  If you need to talk, please feel free to leave a comment here and I'll do my best to get back with you in a timely manner.

In the meantime, stay safe, stay at least six feet away from everyone else and stay true to your human nature.

Sincerely,

​Teagan Brody

Coronavirus... Part of the Agreement?

3/10/2020

IYes, it's been a while since the last blog entry. I won't apologize. Been busy with that thing called "life." I have kept up with Tobin, who has been to and fro all over the place. He says he's busier than ever lately and that the current state of the world has certain individuals on the outside both nervous and excited, depending on their respective lineage.

What am I talking about? Why, the Coronavirus of course.

According to my one and only not-so-human friend, this virus is just the latest in a long line of control measures used by those who control this planet. The governments of the world are not in the habit of quarantining civilians on military bases. But per the terms of several agreements, they must do so to assist in maintaining control of this cleansing exercise.

Before meeting Tobin, I don't know that I would have been able to keep from laughing at anyone who suggested such craziness. But now, well it makes as much sense as any of the other explanations I've heard. It focuses on the aged and infirm? It originated in China... one of the few remaining isolated areas from true global scrutiny? It just makes sense.

So why bother with just the aged and infirm?

Ha! Good try, but sorry.

Read the series to find that and many more answers. 

Thanks for visiting and... as always, feel free to shoot me any questions or comments about the series. 

Until I'm ready to release Book Five, or until I choose to update this sucker again, stay safe and virus-free.

Will Wonders Never Cease?

9/26/2019

Hi again.  Tobin here.

When I saw the post Teagan made yesterday, I could barely believe it.  She is always so busy!  But I knew I had to log onto her website to add my heartfelt thanks.  I have been waiting since 2017 for her to release more of the books in the series.  I know the editing process is lengthy and time-consuming and I would never wish her to feel pressured.  But knowing that all seven books are completed in their first draft form, I have a tendency to be impatient.  My mate is always after me about this.

The great thing about the release of book three is that it focuses more on my side of the story.  It is completely different from the first two books in the series and it introduces a whole new cast of characters.  Book four returns us to the other side, but we will see my side again in books six and seven.   However, I would encourage readers to begin the story with book one, as the books are not written as stand-alone books.  In fact, each book will leave readers with more questions than answers (until book six, which is the first book of the series to actually provide background information).

This story is not what it appears and, as the old adage goes:  One should not judge a book by its cover.

As I am featured in the story (and as Teagan has been a very good friend to me), I recommend this book series to everyone.  I hope you will take a chance on this new epic.  It just might change your life.

I look forward to reading your questions, as well as the answers Teagan provides.

Sincerely,

​Tobin

Wow!  I was certainly ambitious with my estimation of how long it would take to get book 3 out.  However, I have a big surprise for everyone.

BOOKS 3 & 4 ARE NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON.COM!!!

The Power of You...

This post is just a quick update and a little food for thought.  The edits on Book Three are coming along great and I can't wait for you to read it.  I'm still looking at a late December release date, but who knows?  I may be able to swing something a little earlier.

As I was working on it lately, I was struck by the desperation facing the characters in Book Three and their solid conviction that they would find a way to carry on.  I think we all have that inside, that will to survive.  We just have to believe in ourselves enough to tough it out when things get difficult.  There's so much power in each one of us, yet so many people succumb to a posture of helplessness and victimization.  I've done it myself.  Hopefully, I've grown enough now to know that I do have the ability, if not the responsibility, to pick myself up when I get down.

I'm encouraged by my characters and I hope when you read the story that you will be encouraged as well.  With everything that's going on in the world, I think stories of encouragement are exactly what people need.  Don't you?

Well, thanks for taking time out of your day to read my little post.  I'll be updating the site as I get closer to the actual release date of Book Three, so stay tuned.  I know Tobin will also have things to say between now and then, too!

Thanks,

​Teagan

The Responsibility of Knowledge...

10/7/2017

Tobin here. I happened upon the post Teagan made earlier and I feel the need to respond. All humans are different and unique. Each must choose what viewpoint makes the most sense and then what to do with that knowledge. When the truth of this story is realized, the public will also have to decide what to do with the responsibility inherited with the knowledge.

Teagan knows my thoughts and beliefs on this subject. I think the main difficulty she is experiencing is her desire to help others. She recently told me she has been inspired by a couple she knows to give to others. She wants to help, to give of herself. There is nothing wrong with that.

However, the best way I know of for her to help is to get the story out so that others can make an informed decision on the ideas it presents. I have every confidence she will learn the formatting process well enough to publish the next book in the series on time. After all, that is the first true glimpse of my own story. For all the issues Teagan says she has with computers, she is actually very adept at using them.

I must take my leave now to attend to my new scion and his mother. I will write again soon. Until then, I wish you all calm and gentle peace-filled nights.

Waiting...

10/7/2017

Hello again. I'm back with a short description of a new issue I've recently realized I'm experiencing. I find that there are so many things mentioned in my story that I want to talk about with people, but I can't because only two of the seven books have been released.

How do I deal with this issue?

Granted I ought to simply be happy that I actually have a whole story waiting to be released. But I want to talk about it because I think it would help many people with some of the things affecting society today. The terrorist attacks, the natural disasters hitting one right after the other, etc. I see the struggles people are going through and I know my story will have a profound effect on society and that it can help people understand and deal with so many things.

Then again, there will be many who will either see the story as pure fantasy or who will rail against its message, who will claim the story is an attempt to kill God and all religion. I cannot dictate anyone's viewpoint. People will simply have to make up their own minds as to what they believe the story's message is. They'll also have to live with that decision.

Well, I guess I'm just gonna have to figure out how to deal with this thing on my own. Thanks for being my shoulder to lean on whilst I struggle with this issue. I appreciate it.

By the way, I'm still working on the formatting of the eBook version of book two. Hopefully I'll have that done by tomorrow night.

Thanks again. Either Tobin or I will write again soon.

From My Heart...

Teagan here.  I wanted to say that I agree with everything Tobin said in his post below. But I'd like to add that we are thinking of all the victims and their families and loved ones who are suffering from this tragedy.

I have never experienced anything even remotely similar, but my imagination has conjured up enough to make me feel heartbroken for anyone involved in this.  From the deepest parts of my heart, I wish you peace.  It's little consolation, if any, but I wish it all the same.

Signs Of Humanity...

10/4/2017

Tobin here.  This will be a brief statement on recent happenings in the United States.  I have seen and heard many things over the past two days that might lead one to believe mankind has lost its sense of humanity.  The very act of violence that resulted in the deaths of so many might have been enough to jade some.  But there is another side to this that should be considered.  Indeed, it needs to be emphasized anytime this subject arises.  The heroism shown by so many during the crisis must be put in the spotlight.

Understand that every waking moment of my existence focuses on the idea of this thing called humanity, so I obsess about it.  I have questioned its existence during my time here.  I believe anyone who has matured beyond puberty has.  But after all this time on Earth, it consoles my aching and weary heart to see such clear evidence of humanity.

Thank you, all of you who rushed to help during the massacre, thinking not of your own safety but only of helping your fellow humans.  You should be the focus and you are in my mind.  As the world mourns the loss of loved ones who died in this senseless incident and the media focuses on the one who perpetrated it, please know that your selfless acts of compassion will be remembered by so many.

What If...

9/25/2017

Hi there. Teagan here. In case you haven't noticed, I haven't put the eBook version of book two on the market yet. I'll get there. Keep your pantyhose on. 

I was thinking earlier today about what drives each of us. My day was so hectic and busy that it took actual effort to take a step back to just think for a moment. Mind you I'm very happy doing what I do on a daily basis to pay the bills . It's challenging and rewarding and satisfying knowing I'm making a difference. But not everyone I know feels this way about their job(s). I've been there myself, so I understand.

So what is it that keeps those people going? Is it just the tax and debt collectors? Is it so they can buy that new iPhone? What?

Here's food for thought:  What if YOU are responsible for you being born? What if you had to work really hard or fight against all odds just to be born on this plane? Would that make a difference to how you look at each new day? Would your priorities change because of this realization?

What if this was a repetitive cycle that would only end if you experienced or learned a particular thing? Would that change your views on the issues that tend to plague you today? Would you smoke or drink or overeat? Would you choose to continue bitching about how horrible your life is because of this person or that policy? Or would you value the time you have, knowing how much effort it took just to get here? Do you think you'd be more empathetic toward others who might not be as far along the emotional and evolutionary chain as you?

Think about that. It's taken me decades to get this far, but I hope there are many out there who have figured out this way of thinking. If not, I think the world really is in trouble! Just kidding. I happen to believe a person cannot be anywhere he/she is not meant to be. But that doesn't mean we aren't meant to become, do, seek more than we are.

Look at me. I'm a single mom, I've defied death on multiple occasions, I've made just about every wrong turn one can make in life, but I'm happy to get up every morning (okay, I would much rather sleep later and go to work around noon). My life is still far from perfect, but I'm happy I have the opportunity to go to work and to make a difference for my employer's company. I feel that I've been given a gift and I need to appreciate and respect it by giving it my best.

Okay. I'm finished. I'll climb down off my soapbox. I simply hope my words here can help someone out there look at life through a different set of lenses.

What do you think? Please feel free to respond with your thoughts on this subject. I would really like to hear from you.

Thanks for reading and either Tobin or I will be back soon.

Teagan
