Troy 12,944 Report post Posted January 19, 2018 THE FINE LINE BETWEEN IMMORTALITY AND FRAGILE MORTALITY I turn 50 at 7:41pm on Saturday, January 20th, 2018. I will be half-a-century old. I feel a strange mix of immortality and fragility like I have never experienced for any other decade birthday. I didn't feel much difference at 20, 30, or 40, but 50 is kind of cool. I have always loved getting older, but this is the first time I see and feel myself as being older and not just getting older. It's all fascinating and terrifying. Do I have another 50 years? Or is time now more precious than ever? Walking that fine line between immortality and fragility is an art. Thank you for walking with me as I live this life assuming I have at least another 50 years, but treating every moment as precious as a final moment. It is so weird to me that of my 50 years of life on Earth as "Troy" I have been in trance with Michael for 30 of those! And many of you have been with me for more than half or all of that time! I have a lot of big plans for the next two years for TLE and publishing, and I will post a roadmap for TLE after my birthday! Despite the drama and stress of growing pains in the world, what an amazing time to be alive and have the technology to find each other again so easily. I want to make the most of it. I love you guys. You are everything to me. Just having you in my life, and seeing how you are in each others' lives, are the best birthday present!

Words fall short when trying to express my feelings for you and how happy I am to have met you, to know you, to be your friend. You have become a Life Highlight in this lifetime, as you have been in so many of my lifetimes. Being 'here' is so much more fun when you are in the picture. I love you. 25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lori Abrams 384 Report post Posted January 19, 2018 Amazing how time has flown by for many of us who have been a part of your community for so long. I hear you on walking that fine line of immortality and fragility. Treat every moment as a gift, from here on out. I need to remember that. I'm sure you remember when there was a time you thought your end time would be at the age of 33. I don't quite remember why you thought that, but here you are going on 50! Congratulations and Joy to you, always. I might go get me a cupcake so I can feel like I am celebrating your half century mark too. You've been a blessing in my life, Troy. I've learned so much through you and the Michaels. But, it's been your way of disseminating the teachings in a way that makes so much sense, to me. You have been a great teacher, in that aspect. So I Wish You the Very Best Birthday Ever! I wish you Health, Joy, Prosperity. Truth, Love and Happiness Always! I Love You Always too. OXOXOX 20 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marigold 414 Report post Posted January 19, 2018 I wish you a very happy birthday, Troy! You have done so much to help us through the maze known as life with Michael.

Luciana Flora 6,763 Report post Posted January 19, 2018 Happy Birthday!! I would like to say that I am very grateful for you providing this space. I really like this community although there is not much time I'm here. And I also think it's cool to be born in an age when technology prevents people from even physically distancing themselves. Given the place where I live I would hardly find any of you if it were not for the internet, 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
