When we start to take things for granted, it is a recipe for reversal. First, a success at manifesting our desires begins to diminish, and then it becomes impossible. Then circumstances lead to a potential loss of what we already have. These reversals can be among the topics of health, wealth success, fitness, family, and relationship. To be in all of an appreciate, even a littlest blessings in life keeps our vibration high. Did not fall into the trap of complacency and entitlement. Gratitude is humility.
To worry about potential future experience has us possibly suffering twice. Once as we sorry and again if our fear materializes. We tend to worry in our mind way more than what we suffer if we actually encounter the situation. The real tragedy of worry is we rob ourselves of joy in the moment by betting on the likelihood of mistfortune in the future. The majority of the time what we fear never materializes or when it does it is minor compared to the attention we have it. Enjoy the present, it is all we can control. Make calm preparations for the future and act on challenges as they arise.
A runner does not start to leap 20 feet before the hurdle.
We have been projected into form by Divine Mind to reflect the magnificence of Consciousness. Creativity and curiosity are innate to the human species that we may continuously stretch the limits of possibility. As expressions of ALL THAT IS, our purpose is to facilitate the expansion of The Universe. Technology, physical performance, the arts, wellness, relationship and scientific discovery are paramount to the growth of life. All posses unique skills to collaboratively create new limits of possibility. Those that ignore their passion, isolate and remain sedentary shunning relationship and interaction are alive but not living. To live is to create.
The Dawn of each new day is presented to us as an opportunity to create a new experience in life. There is absolutely no reason that events, perspectives and conditions of times that have passed need to be continuously relevant. The break of morning is a new day and allows for a completely new life dependent upon our desire and intentions. The past past does not have to define the future or the present, unless we continue to tow it with us. Discard what has not served our highest good and focus on the intention of what is to be and life will be created anew.
A bee will not be happy unless it is pollinating flowers. A salmon will be very anxious if it is not swimming upstream. A tree will die if it is not producing oxygen. All life has a purpose. For many species it is instinctive. For humans the scope of possibility is vast and continuous to expand as our ingenuity improves. The core purpose of everything is service to everything else. We collaborate to keep the collective of DIVINE EXPRESSION unfolding with the greatest benefit for all. We find our bliss when we discover the most pleasurable avenue through which we will make an impact. Joy and peace does not come from outside of us, we have it within and experience it best when we share it.
For many of us, the search for truth and meaning was a veiled attempt at creating happiness in an apparent void of joy in our lives. You see, for those filled with joy having happy experiences, there would have been draw to seek anything. All spiritual practices teach that happiness cannot be created, found or achieved it can only be realized. The very search for it or even INTENT to create it negates it from the onset. To endeavor such a journey is validation the joy is not already present. The caveat is that joy and happiness exists in all things if we choose to view them through the lense of gratitude. Acknowledging and accepting the perfection in all we encounter will result in seeing the joy that has always been there. In THE WIZARD OF OZ, Dorothy was searching for a way home. The Fairy (her guru, guide, conscience) enlightened her that she had what she sought all along all she needed to do was acknowledge it. Click your heels together. You are that which you seek.
In pursuit of the indwelling spirit and journey home toward enlightenment and truth,we experience less and less of the ugliness in life. First we gain a new respect for all living creatures. We also see the connection of all things and understand the universal impact of thought and action. Seeking to experience and create conditions that benefit many becomes our focus. Gratitude and unconditional love becomes our new perpective. Karma and the Law of Attraction draws bright uplifting experiences and opportunities into our sphere. It is only by looking back will we see the shadows and darkness.
Your own words are the bricks and mortar of the dreams you want to realize. Your words are the greatest power you have. The words you choose and the use establish the life your experience.~~ Sonia Croquette ~
The words we speak, thoughts we entertain, beliefs we hold true are the foundation for what we encounter as “OUR LIFE”. When we are angry at others, jealous of our neighbor, intolerant of others that are different, as well as those that think and act differently than us, it does not matter what we do for a living, or how much $ is in our account, what we plan or intend to do, we will create negative experiences.
Do you help out one group of people, say,( Homeless), then spend your day complaining about, and vilifying politicians, and businessman. Maybe you donate all your free time to working with disabled children, Then while at home, quietly hate a particular race, and fight with your wife. Then wonder, ” why are things not going well for me? How come I keep having problems?
The answer is simple: What you sow, so shall you reap. As you speak, think, and believe, so shall you receive!
Start each day with the task of being aware of how you think, and what you say. Lay a solid foundation for Peace and Grace. Focus only on thoughts that nurture and support. The Universe will take care of the rest.
Good intentions and random acts will not override disharmony within. Consistency with word, deed, thought and action is paramount to creating a blissful life.
The Journey IS the Destination
“My inner most convictions and most frequent point of focus will show me what is simmering in my “cauldron of creation”.
We all try to live by a compass collectively agreed upon millennia ago. Times change, situations and people vary so nothing should ever be written in stone. Such judgements need to be dismissed. We each should be evaluating the moral values of our actions and plans based upon whether they serve our highest good at the moment and never detract from the peaceful pursuit of others finding joy. If we endeavor to create with negative intentions we deserve to have society and karma hold us accountable. When we function with the highest good for all in mind, we should expect support, approval and success in return. Follow your bliss; judge not; It’s all good !
When we hide our true self we relax into the perception of anonymity thinking our secret is safe as we deceive the world. Little do we know that our deception is all over our face. While our authentic self is concealed, the obvious effort toward projecting a manufactured personality presents as worse than anything we attempt to hide. As the world realizes we are less than genuine, we live with the stress of our deception being revealed. We never fool ourselves. There is no joy available for any life less than complete authenticity. We all have aspects of ourselves that we do not appreciate but they are NOT flaws they are our unique markers that identify our individuaity. Vive la diferencia.
