Hi, in this video, I want to talk about losing friends and gaining friends, light working, being aware, being conscious, awakening, spiritual journeys or paths or whatever you call it. It's very, very interesting because you shed a lot of baggage.

I mean, you shed a lot of baggage. You not only shed a lot of internal baggage and clutter, you also shed, for lack of a better word, baggage in terms of friendships that don't align with you and the path that you're on.

So you might be wondering what happened to all your friends. If you think about it, maybe a couple of years ago, or maybe even last month, you had a bunch of friends.

You could count them all, call them up at any time, and know that they got you, they had your back. But now when you look at your life, you basically have no friends, or most of your old friends are gone.

You probably have them on your phone, but you really have nothing in common anymore, and you're wondering what happened.

If I have to talk from my own example, when I started on my path of ascension or awakening, when I started to open my eyes to see beyond the veil, to see beyond what was hidden, when my eyes started opening up to the other truths that existed in the universe, when I started to pursue those truths and to have my own understanding of what they meant, it caused a radical shift in my own perspective of who I wanted in my life.

And it also caused a shift. Rather, it forced my friends to declare their stand based on the goals that I had set for myself.

Someone once said something that's very true, and that is when you have a goal, or when you declare your intention, then people will be forced to take sides. They either choose to align with you or they choose not to align themselves with you.

What I found out on my journey of ascension was that almost everybody, almost all my friends, stepped aside. It's not that they didn't like me anymore. It's just that now we were vibrating on different levels. We could no longer see eye to eye.

I was no longer interested in doing the same things that I used to do when I had not awakened to a certain degree.

So it's almost like our paths just parted, and everyone was going in a different direction, never to cross paths again, unless of course somewhere further along the road the paths are going to join together and we will meet again.

But for the most part, I lost all my friends. It's so interesting now that I think about it.

I started getting into crystals, and when I got into crystals, I brought a bunch of crystals into my house, a lot of crystals into my house.

Many people would come into my apartment and they would see all these crystals, and it's almost like they would be like, um, what are we supposed to say here?

You could see them trying to contain themselves because they were like, what exactly happened to this woman, what is going on here? They'd look around and you could just tell they were like, okay, this is way too much for me.

And Caroline, we love you, but bye.

It was almost like everyone was questioning, without openly asking, what I was into. People would assume that I was into something devious, without necessarily wanting to know deeper.

It was almost like, let's just inquire about what you're into from afar and not really jeopardize a friendship. But let's just have this tea together and bye. I think at this point we have nothing in common.

My friends would almost always be very skeptical. I could see how uncomfortable they were around the crystals, the black crystal stones or the selenite, the huge stones that I have in my house.

And they'd be like, maybe I should really be sitting on that side of the room and not around the crystals.

So based on my own awakening, and anyway, I do love my crystals. So whatever. If my friends feel like they're very uncomfortable around them, that's something they have to deal with.

But based on the stand that I had taken and the new found joy that I had begun to see and experience through other consciousnesses, like rocks, people began to just decide at that point that maybe I was no longer worthy of being in their presence, and they moved away, or they decided that I was not for them, which is good for me.

So in the end, I found that I was losing my friends. They were dropping off the radar like flies.

So I just want to encourage lightworkers, as you begin to open your eyes, as you begin to understand a lot of vibrational medicine, vibrational energies, work on your intuition, maybe change your diet, and just work to be a better person, trying to heal yourself, trying to walk authentically, live authentically, you lose a lot of friends because you're now on a different path and you're now vibrating on a different level, on a different frequency.

But the interesting thing is that you will find the most amazing people that will truly, truly resonate with you on those different planes.

So don't be discouraged when you're going through a rough time and you feel like you're losing friends and even your family members, when you feel like you don't have anyone to turn to. Just keep working on yourself.

Keep loving yourself, keep healing yourself, which is very important. Seriously, there's nowhere you're going without love. I'm telling you, you're not going anywhere. You're not moving forward without loving yourself, without healing yourself. These are lessons that you have to go through.

These are experiences that you have to endure and overcome.

Once you begin to love yourself and learn to be who you are, and to identify and understand the true you, you'll be so much happier.

As you grow as a person and you begin to vibrate on a different level, then you meet people on your same frequency, and I tell you it's so much better. The new you, the new version of you, is so much better.

So you lose a lot of friends. Don't worry about it. It's part of the shedding process. It's part of the cleansing process.

But as you keep raising your frequency, you'll meet other beings, other people like yourself, who will be resonating at the same level and cause you to even expand more and be more aware. So it's so much fun on the other side.

You lose some, and those people that you lose were really there for a reason, because that was part of your life up to a particular point.

But sometimes it's good to let go so you can start afresh, with the new friends, with the new relationships, with a new attitude, and on a higher frequency.

So don't lose heart if you're losing friends because you will gain wonderful, wonderful spiritual beings as friends. So keep heart and keep moving. We have work to do. See you next time.
