23 OCT 2017 ~CHANNELING BY BRENDA HOFFMAN ~ CHUTES AND LADDERS
Dear Ones,
You want to be or do something new, but you do not yet know what that something is – so your days seem to drag, to be lifeless.
This feeling is similar to what you felt in early puberty before you 
were allowed to date or drive. You wanted to rush into adulthood before 
you were physically prepared to do so.
So it is now. Those feelings of, “I’m ready, what’s taking so long?” 
are becoming almost overwhelming. You test this or that new activity or 
philosophy, hoping against hope that doing so will move you into the 
Universal maturity for which you pine.
You are in one of those frustrating ‘wait and see’ phases – not 
necessarily enjoying your old life and not yet fully creating your new 
life.
You know love and joy are to come for you have seen them often in 
your mind’s eye, but neither seems to be a large part of your life now. 
Just as was true in early puberty stages when you yearned to experience 
the romantic love touted by your media.
You knew what you wanted in puberty, but not how to get there for 
your physicality could not yet connect the pieces. There were times 
during that early puberty stage when you were certain you would never 
experience anything but boredom, fear, and drudgery – much as you are 
likely feeling now.
Even though your early puberty required years of patience and 
frustration, the same is not true now for neither you nor the Universes 
wish to ponder, dream, fear, or agonize for years. All will shift in a 
flash.
You activated pieces within you that neither you nor we thought 
possible in one lifetime. So it is you will enjoy new you in New Earth 
in this lifetime. This early puberty new you stage will terminate in 
days or weeks instead of years.
You are evolving more rapidly than has been your pace until now. So 
do not fret if you have minor aches and pains. Or feel disinterested in 
life or new you. Or you are a bit edgy with those you love. You are 
evolving so rapidly that you are no longer, if you will, in control of 
your being. Which is little different from what was true throughout 
puberty, particularly the early stages when you displayed both 
child-like and adult characteristics – often within minutes.
In 3D, you were comfortable with the self-control you were trained to
 project and protect. Even though someone made you angry, you smiled and
 said the right thing. Or if you were sad or worried, you pretended you 
were not. You controlled your emotions for most of your 3D life – with 
the exception of early childhood – resulting in many of your 3D 
illnesses.
That control is rapidly falling away – which in itself is frightening
 for control is a key component of your 3D world. At the same time, your
 current inability to ‘curb your tongue’ or your actions are terrifying 
for you do not yet understand what personal freedom means. Even though 
that characteristic, that personal freedom, is moving you astray in your
 3D world, it is encouraging you to be you in your new 5D or beyond 
world.
“Who are you?” is the question of the day, week, and the next few 
months. And so it is that you will try out several yous determining who 
new you is. Which is little different from infants and toddlers before 
they are trained to do and say the right thing.
You might blurt out something you had no idea you were going to say. 
Or decide not to participate in an activity you once loved. Or not feel 
like doing anything for everything seems uninteresting – and yet you are
 bored.
Again, this is a short-lived en masse forerunner phase. You are not 
alone, and you will not eliminate all previous ties. You will likely 
feel testy and perhaps sound and act the same, but not enough to isolate
 yourself until this phase passes.
Allow yourself this growth spurt for that is what it is. Not a 
life-threatening activity, but instead a life-growing activity. 
Something you will refer to with humor in the not-too-distant future, 
even though you might be a bit uncomfortable the next few days or weeks.
Perhaps you believe you know enough to ‘fake it’ through these next 
few days or weeks.
Unfortunately, such is not true. For if you deny this
 new you, you will feel extremely uncomfortable maybe even to the point 
of a short-term disease like a cold or the flu.
Such is not in punishment from us, but instead a constant reminder to
 you that you are testing various forms of new you to discover the place
 or grouping that is most comfortable.
Think of this phase as similar to looking for a new dress or business
 suit. It is likely you would try numerous items before the right outfit
 was discovered. So it is for you now. You might say something that 
feels right today, but not tomorrow. Or you might agree to an activity 
today with great excitement that you dread tomorrow.
Allow yourself to flit in and out of activities, voices, and actions 
knowing you are selecting those parts most appropriate for new you and 
your role in New Earth. You will not be the same entity you were last 
month when you finalize the selection of the majority of your segments 
attributes. But then, you did not enter the earth in this lifetime to 
remain the 3D you that you were once so comfortable being.
You are going to stretch yourself as are all other forerunners. It is
 a time of personality shifts that you forerunners are modeling for all 
who follow. So be it. Amen.
