The Impending Reveal

I love the clean slate of a brand new day.  One can forget all that has transpired for good or ill, reap the benefits of the lessons learned from days past and apply them as the world has made one more revolution on it's axis.  I find it interesting sometimes how things seem to stand still, exceptionally still, maybe way too still.  And that concept of stillness is actually ludicrous considering that our planet revolves fairly quickly as it spins and moves around the sun.  Everything evolves through its designated process, sheds what no longer belongs and emerges new and changed afterward.  There is this cocoon phase to everything it seems and our lives are really no different.  The problem is that I've always struggled with this part, just like how I struggle with winter each year.  Many love that time of death/rebirth but I never have.  While I can appreciate the season and it's time for rest and regeneration, it always seems to me to be the longest season there is.  That makes me laugh because it is all a matter of perception and perspective and those that I hold are not the truth.  So, as I sit here writing I realize as the seasons change from spring to near summer, there is this freezing, death and regeneration cycle happening for me on another plane of existence.  I am not quite sure what its for even though I know what created it. 

There is this sense of connection to everything and yet, at the same time, a complete disconnection from everything.  The dichotomy is a bit crazy making or, well, at least a bit confusing.  There are times in our lives where things just seem to stay the same no matter how many changes we attempt to make.  But again, the "seem" word conveys a perception.  There is nothing about this time in this incarnation for me that is staying the same.  Everything is in motion, everything is in upheaval and everything is coming to that very thin moment of ending-beginning.  I can feel it.  I hate the waiting part and would just like to get on with it whatever "it" is that is emerging but I know its futile to think such thoughts and so I laugh again at myself for thinking these things. I guess I have just so many questions at so many levels of existence and I'm eager to get this whatever it is behind me so I can reconnect and begin my queries and journey again.  I don't care for this feeling and I do not know why.  Perhaps it reminds me of the void - this place where my consciousness existed but nothing else seemed to for a few moments.  I do know and realize however, that the void had no true absence of light or motion. The Hermetic Principal on that one resonates deeply with me in that all is in motion, everything changes.  This is a fact in this frame as well as others.  As long as consciousness exists, everything changes and moves.  To me that means the whole of the universe, every thought, all the energy in this plane and others also moves and changes.  We can stand still in this frame and think we are really standing still but we cannot be...our minds/consciousness do not cease their movement, nor does the stop Earth spinning on it's axis orbiting around the sun.  The only thing that freezes is liquid in forms that when exposed to cold environmental temperatures changes its form but it never stops moving.

Funny about that very thought right there...exposure to environment and changing form.  Hmmm, now that thought will have me comparing, contrasting, researching and understanding for a little while to come.  Everything I have experienced in my environment up to this point in my life has been about changing my form.  I think a little about the subtle changes that occur to us humans the longer we traverse planet Earth.  We begin to fade, it seems from this dimension and we transform and change into something else.  The signs appear in our hair and our skin, our vision in this world changes as we begin to embrace another dimension...in this world we fade away...but we emerge Elsewhere...hmmmm, what a beautiful thought and now I am really smiling...so an adjustment in my own trajectory I now perceive and am suddenly released from this feeling of stasis...the gears begin to turn again in a new direction...and that direction emerges as I take steps...a little more revealed every day.  I feel like a kid the night before school starts in the fall (okay, I have freely admitted that I was a nerd).  I loved that first day so much.  I never knew what it would hold for me...good times or bad times, maybe in between times.  But it would be ultimately good and nearly almost always was.  So, off with me then into this beautiful day of life of love and of learning.  Blessings to you as your travel through your day today.  What new thought or thing will reveal itself magically to you today?  Get to it and go find out! :)

You're the Hero

How is it that we always seem to revert to the victim and villain mentality in which the only way out is the rescue by some selfless hero we can worship and adore?  Why do we humans resort to this impossible concept time and time again?  We look out at the world and we think, "Oh God, save us."  But the reality is that we created all of this through so many unaware actions, thoughts and fears we allow to run rampant within our own psyches.  There are no victims and there are no villains when you step back from the frame work you look at but clearly do not see.  We are taught the frame work exists as we see it but there is a backstory at play humming along in the background that we either resist with much fear or we contribute to with love. Sounds a bit simple doesn't it?

Life is sometimes like one of those illusion pictures.  You look at it one way and you see one thing but if you adjust your vision, relax and open your mind a bit the other picture begins to emerge at the very same sight you have beheld. So, those pictures are like a huge metaphor of life.  We look at things day in and day out and yet we fail repeatedly to see what is really there.  I can see easily how that can be with so many factions out there distracting our minds and hearts with ridiculous nonsense to keep us mired in the illusion and no, I am not a conspiracy theorist.  My line of thinking, while similar, couldnt be farther from that.  Conspiracy theories hold the truth at heart that there is something heinous going on and we must get very angry and upset, revolt and destroy those engaged in the illusion.  The funny thing is that to take such action, we merely engage in destroying ourselves.  You see, we are one.  We came into this world with a mass collective of agreements in which we wished to participate in to learn from, to try to transcend the small-mindedness of and to grow from.  Yet, when we manifest ourselves here in a body, we have hints of the collective agreements but agreed to forget so that we could lend realism to the play before us.  Just like putting on 3D glasses to make what we know is a movie appear more real.  We agreed to this and so we are here participating. 

Some of us who have been around the block a few times, so-to-speak, regarding experience with lives realize that in order to grow, we must find ways to push past the small-mindedness that we lean toward out of pure convenience.  We take the low road for expedience to get through a scene we find we don't like so much and we reach for things at the expense of others for myriad reasons.  We get lost in the realism when we engage in such tactics.  But, even that is part of our own life plans.  We create the dreams we find ourselves in.  We cannot hold "them" responsible and pray for the hero on the white horse to arrive right on time and just expect it to happen while in the meantime we hold fear, blame and loathing in our hearts.  When we create from fear, we produce more fear inducing scenes.  That's the unwritten law...well, one of many.  So, chalk this all up to spiritual mumbo jumbo but there is no one coming to save us or rescue us from ourselves.  The only way out, around or through is to stand up and take accountability for your own fearful and nightmarish creations.  Heal the fearful parts within you and push them from your sphere of reality.  Then, when you can hold love, logic and clearer vision in your hearts, you can create an energy within this framework that causes it to shift into higher vibratory existence.

The ascended masters have ascended and are not coming back to this plane to save you.  I'm sorry to tell you this but it is true.  But, that said, don't be disheartened.  These amazing souls who transcended the commonly understood frame work have left you wisdom and truth so that you can do as they did and rise above what you look at but do not see.  They left you the clues to unwrap yourself from the illusions of this framework and embrace the truth of an even greater framework.  They left you the tools of empowerment, they showed you the way and they left the light on for you so you could step up, embrace the relative truths instead of the provisional ones you were taught to hold.  The truth is out there...transcendence is not some flakey windchime people unattainable state - it's real and you can touch it, taste it and feel it if only you would work on eradicating the fear inside you knowing that the fear of death is silly because your consciousness goes on.  Who cares if they poison the water and the food - the way we allow ourselves to become addicted to things to make us feel better, we'll take ourselves out any way and then what?  We don't go to oblivion.  We live.  Immortality is absolutely real but just not in the way we think or we've been taught to think.  The clues that lead us out of the matrix are often purported to lead you into the lap of satan or worse, eternal damnation.  Oh goodness...if you were to open your minds and hearts and question what you see - look to the works and the words of the ascended masters and see the similarities in the themes - Look at the words left behind by Krishna, Buddha and Jesus alone and you'll see the same themes and if you open your mind and heart and look through the eyes of love, the truth has been staring you in the face all along.  "You can do as I do" are words they all shared in one way or another and yet we fall silly and all worshipy and believe ourselves unworthy.  You  see, that is part of the problem.  You're all heros made of the same stuff as those amazing souls that you worship and you can learn as they did if you would but open your minds, your hearts and your souls and embrace the truth of Source and find the love instilled within you to this end.  Do not discount yourselves so readily by thinking you are in need of rescue.  You are the hero you are waiting for so stand up and be heroic...stand up and be empowered by the light of love and contribute in nonviolent ways to support yourself, your brothers and sisters in this world and make changes for the better.  You can help heal the world but you have to start with you.

Throw off complacency and localized unaware thoughts.  Get rid of fear in your hearts.  Get rid of animosity, greed, selfishness and anger and open your minds to what you want most.  Step out of the darkness of blame and woe and find the light shining in your own sphere of existence.  Make changes.  Do something positive.  Believe in yourselves as the spark of divinity that you are.  Then you'll see changes.  Then you'll learn how to consciously create in the light of love.  Then you can rescue yourselves and save this world. There are additional laws that you will need to be aware of for your own good.  One big one is free will.  If you wish to avoid adverse events, emotion and energy for yourself, you must be impeccably honorable in terms of free will.  This means you cannot force a single soul to do what you think they should or stop doing what you think they shouldn't.  You are in domain control only of your own free will and your free will always ends where another's free will begins.  Shine the light for others and give your opinion if asked but do not force others to go down the roads you think are the right and only true roads.  This will mire you in darkness and confusion because your soul knows this law.  Live and let live.  Let people hold thier own beliefs, shine the light, hold a space of compassion and love and then let go.  We make great changes in this world by shifting the energy and aligning with the vibrations that support it.  When you cross the lines of free will you cannot maintain harmony and align with the positive energies in this world.  Disengage from manipulation and creating fear in others.  Disengage from victim and villain thinking.  Disengage from judgment.  Disengage from assuming only you know the way and the path.  Engage in empowering action first for yourself and then learn how to engage in this concerning others.  Be mindful of the present moment, your thoughts and their origins.  Test what is real versus which is fear inducing negativity for you.  Take time to focus on the state of your own path instead of focusing on the paths of others.  It was your desire for you to learn and grow here and not stand in judgment of others.  Although you contain a spark of divinity and you are learning to weild that you cannot hold the knowledge enough while mired in this framework to judge others and usurp their free will without grave consequences for you.  Get in touch with nature.  Get in touch with your soul.  Get in touch with this beautiful and amazing universe we exist in.  Feel it!  Once you realize just what it is you are connected to every day of your life, your thinking will shift naturally as long as you allow it.  You have free will and you can leave behind the victim/villain illusion and find the truth within you.  Until then, blessings for your journey and I hope you find the light so many others have left on for you to brighten the darkest parts of your paths.

So it's Over, Now What?

So, it's over
Now what?
That thing you thought was everything
Whatever it was and whatever you thought it would be
It's over
So now what?
Will you lie there defeated, deflated and wounded?
Will you hate, seek revenge, sink to the depths of despair?
Will you calculate, seek to commiserate and drive the wounds in deep?
Are you the victim of a villain?
Are you a victim of circumstance?
What are you in this? 
Have you given it thought?
You look back at the days and weeks
But do you see what happened?
Do you truly comprehend the purpose of the experience?
You didn't want change did you?
You wanted to take this one thing and possess it, hold it there for eternity unchanged
Did you think that was reasonable or realistic to hold a thing static to appease your fears?
Really?  Was that a reasonable expectation to towards your serenity
In a world where everything is always in continual motion?
So, it's over
Now what?
Will you sort through the facts or hold to your provisional truths
So carefully created with environmental psychology?
Will you stand in the darkness?
If so, how long?
What will it take to propel you toward transcendence?
What will it take to reveal your own hand in your seeming undoing?
Think about it.
Things in this world do not happen to you randomly while you try to have a good time.
Things in this world you experience are created by you, for you
Either consciously or unconsciously
So, it's over
Now what?
Is it time yet to look again
And see what was really there in the absence of hate and fear or rejection?
Is it time yet to embrace the lesson you  just couldn't see?
Is it time yet to wake from your deep and dark slumber?
It can be if you want it to be
So, it's over
Now what?
Can you take the steps towards the light on your own two feet?
Can you realize you created the scene so perfectly?
Can you comprehend the bad thing can be a good thing in terms of your soul's growth?
You can but free will dictates that concept, that pure and beautiful action
Is entirely up to a matter of your choosing
You can remain mired in the darkness and like a black whole suck all the life out of
Everyone and everything around you to validate you, vindicate you from responsibility
Or, you can seek the deeper meaning, gain understanding and embrace the change
That was inevitable to bring alignment with your soul's truest desire?
So, its over
Now what?
Stand up, live, love and breathe...you are that powerful and nothing can take you down but you.

Indescribably Amazing

Life, with it's blazing array of colors, textures, scents and complexities is a whole lot more than we consider on most days.  It is no accident that we are here although some theories would like to postulate in prolific fashion otherwise.  If a soul were to sit very still and quiet for any length of time and let its energies expand outward into the proximity it finds itself and connect energetically to everything near it, it would have this resonating knowing deep within it that there is purpose to its existence.  There is nothing random about life at all.  Consider the sacred geometry that exists in plant life alone.  Can that really be an accident?  It's too pure and beautiful to be so in my mind but who am I to put such thoughts out there?  I am not college educated, I am not steeped in scientific knowledge nor do I profess to know the meaning of life.  What I am is comfortable in my own being and trusting of the knowing that comes from within my own soul.  If I forget completely about everything I've ever read, watched or learned...If I forget about the creation myths of religion and the various cultures around the world...If I forget all the counter-arguments about everything, my resonating knowing from deep within me remains steadfast and unchanged by anything ever written or told.  I'm satisfied with that.

When I step way back into the observer position and consider life, it is miraculously beautiful and perfectly designed.  Yes, I did say designed.  I do not believe with anything in me that we were an accidental coincidence of perfectly timed cells randomly introduced to extra terrestrial or terrestrial matter that some how evolved into what I see before me.  What I see before me when I look out into this world, backwards in time and even before me, I see a massive collaboration of cooperative agreements of and creation.  The cells within us self-create, our thoughts seem to self-perpetuate and well, there is us too and our ability to procreate.  Can this really be a random accident or convenient coincidence?  It's just to perfect and I just can't buy that.  You can show me all the scientific proof in the world, you can spell out for me all of the scientific facts, theories and postulations and you can even lay down at my feet all the religious texts in existence that are proof positive of creation and still, still I will not be swayed.  What I would see is nothing but provisional truth that cannot define nor change the real truth.

I may be completely crazy in my thoughts but one of the most important things I've learned in life is that I must immediately discount anything conveyed through man with an ego.  I don't mean to pick on gender.  I refer to both male and female of the species.  We are ill equipped to speak of anything without ego involved...even me so don't take my word for anything either.  I have come to trust my soul in my existence and its urgings and sensations more than any thought inside my head or any word that can be created.  My soul knows what my mind cannot.  There is a greater mind beyond the simple one we use to banter about ideas and egotistical notions.  This greater mind is the Source of all creation and yes, I do believe there was a Source that generated everything.  I find even the statement of "I believe" to be so limited in expression.  There is more to the sentiment behind those limited and simple words...there is this resonating knowing deep within my soul that goes beyond thought and my limited ability to reason with an ego that has been tainted by environmental psychology.  You can even analyze and consider that it must be some deep psychological need in me to believe in something bigger than myself and that I'm ignorant or misinformed for not buying into all of the things others have laid out before me.  It won't change the core of my soul's knowing.

I learned a while back that the conscious mind is a rather interesting thing.  When consciousness exists beyond the body's ability to hold it through normal functioning, one is left with this expansive feeling that cannot be shaken.  To know that when the body breathes its last breath and slowly fades from life and yet the greater connected mind holding pure consciousness continues on creating well, that is enough evidence for me.  First hand experience can be a beautiful thing if it is not judged.  Those that indicate the near death experience is not real and can be purely explained by science need to be reminded that their statements are mere conjecture based on a limited understanding of what we truly are.  But I don't need to prove that to anyone who has had a near death experience and returned to this world conscious and forever changed.  Those who have gone beyond the veil of illusion know the truth within their souls too.  So, life, well - it does have purpose and our experiences here are the real gold...the real treasures of this world.  The love that we learn to find and feel and send outward, yet another precious gem of existence worth by far more than all of the theories and rhetoric of right.  I can content myself with that and I do.  I love this life and I love this amazing opportunity to experience it with the views I allow myself to take in.  I love that we posses the ability to create in this world.  I love that we posses the indescribable ability to connect and deeply with other souls on this planet.  I love that we posses the ability to experience and then transcend conflict and energetic emotions that most definitely ensue.  Life is amazing.  We are amazing. The Source that thought us into existence by beautiful design is purely amazing.  I need more coffee and to get my day started.  I shall create a beautiful day with the four most amazing and special souls in my world, my beautiful children.  I pray your day is filled with all of the real treasures in this world and of this existence.  Be blessed!

Visions and Dreams

For those of you who do not put stock in visions and dreams, you may want to change your mind.  I want to tell you a little story.  One that isn't quite finished but is proof enough for me, a positive skeptic, that there is very good reason to hold onto your visions and dreams and to love the very idea and concept of them every single moment of your existence until they come to pass.  So, the story goes...

I'm a single mother of four kids with a cat, living a very normal existence (for the most part)  day in and day out from paycheck to paycheck.  It has been my reality for the better part of the last twenty or so years.  I met a wonderful friend very randomly a while back and we had many conversations about the law of attraction and how in order to make dreams and visions a reality, you had to come to a point where you are willing to surrender your disbelief, forget about the hows and technical aspects and just get into a very creative mode to establish what it is you most want.  The idea was to just put it out there, even if it's seemingly impossible and then do what you can to be open to the dream and vision and take the steps within your power to bring them into fruition.  If you can do these things, the universe will meet you and bring you the rest of the way.

My dream was a very simple one along the lines of one of life's basic necessities.  I just wanted something simple, a three bedroom home in Southern California where I and my family could live.  So, I created a vision board and just put my need/desire out there.  Money was so tight for me when I put this out there because of the expenses of living in Southern California.  It is near impossible to get ahead out here without very careful planning.  Unfortunately, planning ahead was something I had never been able to do.  A little over three years ago, I created my dream and wrote down the specifics of it.  Even as I wrote it, I struggled so hard to remove the doubts.  The only barrier for me was coming up with a down payment.  Unfortunately, I had accumulated so much debt living paycheck to paycheck that coming up with a down payment was a huge barrier that I could see no way to overcome.  I had to make some sacrifices, big ones in order to set myself up in a position to where I could actually start working toward the goal.  I established a five year plan to get out of debt and I'm 3 years in with just under two years to go and I'm seeing beautiful results and am now starting to get excited. Some of the things I had to do was sacrifice living in a big beautiful home I was renting and squeeze us into a very tiny, no room for anything, town home that was very reasonably priced in comparison to where we were.  I also had to commit to cutting most unnecessary spending and creating a budget that we held to no matter what.  These things coupled with some additional tough decisions and financial planning helped us ready ourselves for the ultimate dream.

Now, the housing economy has just gone bonkers these past many years and the super high prices that were also cost-prohibitive for us have tumbled way down to where the actual costs of the homes were becoming a bit more reasonable.  I got excited when this happened because it started to reinforce the fact that there was a way for my dream to become a reality.  I started to be able to pay off a few of the debts a little more quickly than planned which allowed me to start saving a little money but I hadn't given any serious thought to taking any further actions to making the dream come true.  I've taken some steps and lined up the right people to help me with technical things when I got ready and would check in with them from time to time.  I happened to be checking home prices over the weekend and realized from somewhere deep within me, now is the time...the dream is at hand.  So, I checked into a few things that might help me with a down payment.  Thank God for 401K loans!!!!  So, it turns out that between savings and a loan, I will have my down payment within ten days from today.  I also have my wonderful friend in the mortgage industry who tells me he thinks I can do it now too and as soon as my loan goes through, I'll be able to put through the pre-approval for a loan.  Then another friend, an agent, has given me some advice that will help put some money back into my savings so I won't be without a little reserve when everything is said and done.

I'm sitting here this morning elated realizing the dream, the one I wasn't entirely convinced would happen but the one I remained open to and took steps towards is at the brink of arrival into my reality.  I'm so happy about this.  In just a few short weeks I'll be out looking for homes and I know that as far as I've come, there is no stopping me now.  The right home, in the right area at the right price will reveal itself to me when the time is right.  Me, all I have to do is show up now and do the work I need to do to wrap this up.  Since I'm still a couple years into my five year plan, I've got a few thin years to go but then after that period is done, I will be in a much better place and the beauty is, in five years from now, the big chunk I've borrowed from myself gets paid back and I've set it up so that I can make extra payments on it on the side so I can pay it off even quicker!

For me, this is just amazing.  I just never realized before the power of positive thinking in action with a very simple dream.  I don't need anything extravagant, just something simple that meets my requirements and it looks like I'm almost there.  I have the patience of a saint with these things and am well aware of the market conditions so know that patience is needed.  For me, I fully understand this particular journey and that a relaxed and positive approach is needed here on out.  Now, I did have other visions and dreams on that vision board and I'm going to resurrect each one with vigor.  My disbelief had me disregard all but this one dream and now it is about to manifest and now I know the rest will too.  I shall dust them all of and pull them back into the light where they belong and do the very same things with those dreams and visions I did with this one that comes to fruition a little more each day.  I'm more than half way through the tunnel of planning I set in motion three years ago and am seeing the light at the end shinning so much more brightly than ever before.

I share my story because I want you to know that visions and dreams and the process of making them reality is not some metaphysical new age hocus pocus.  Our thoughts, feelings and words do in fact have incredible power and the more energy we put behind them, the more powerful we make them.   A suggestion also is to surround yourself with people who will help you make your dreams a reality and be one of those souls who help lend the positive energy for others to realize their dreams.  I find it is a wholly rewarding experience at so many levels.  Create the concept of what you most want in this world, think of it positively every day, design the steps that you can take to help you get there, take those steps and don't believe for one moment you will not have your dream.  You will if you want it and put enough passionate and positive energy behind it as you can.  I was a skeptic but I always knew the power of thoughts and the energy behind words.  I just never really took the time to put these concepts into practice for the things that I most needed.  Now I know.  I hope you do too.  Blessings for your journey dear souls and lots of positive energy and wishes for your hopes and dreams!  May they all come true in every regard.

Path to Know-Where

Oh sometimes the routine of life can feel a bit futile and vexing!  But, those are only superficial emotions generated by an ego that feels it has not been given enough attention.  So, I'm grateful as my ego needs to learn to sit back quietly, with less chatter and watch as my soul drives through this part of life.  The scenery is quite interesting, I must say.  Roads I think I've seen before have taken on different meanings.  The things once so important now are less so as I go.  The things I never noticed before seem to come more sharply into view.  The blaming has all but left me as any impetus for thought and instead full realization of the ultimate self-accountability for the creation of all of the situations in my life takes hold.  This feels neither good nor bad, but it just is what it is.  The soul in charge is more of an observer than a driver however it does kick into pole position when the ego is off-track.  I love that and I also love that I have some how gained the ability to listen.

I see this world around me and I wonder at all the intricacies and messages and so many levels and the way it gives my life dimension in the various planes of existence.  The ethereal side to my visions have subsided but the disappointment was very thin as I soon discovered my dreams were becoming more vivid and easily remembered upon awakening.  It's so interesting how the mind works and shifts gears in very important ways to help ensure a soul has balance.  I  go through my days as if I'm an auditor, looking for certain trends in performance and measuring against some random standard that's been set in the back of my mind and no, not for the sake of judgment.  Rather, the measuring phase is about understanding what drives the spikes and what the spikes in themes and experience mean.

No more do I wander through the world taking comfort in the obvious, material and superficial.  I slowly turn away from the world knowing full well that it will run just fine without my constant participation in the happenings out there.  I turn deeper within to feel and experience everything at a different level for no other reason than the auditing and measuring I've done indicates I've not spent enough time developing certain intangible aspects of my being and my living.  The ego tries so hard to take the reigns from time to time but it can't successfully do so because it doesn't have a firm enough basis in reality...the ego is not real but is an imagined challenge we created to keep ourselves in check.  How boring would life be if we didn't sometimes have a dichotomy inside our own heads to sift and sort through?

Spirituality leads you to some interesting places.  I've noticed the path moves ahead in leaps and bounds only to double back, twist and turn to revisit places I've already seen or thought I had.  When the path turns back there is this feeling of loss and like, "what didn't I get" or "what did I do wrong that I must go back and see this same stretch of road again?"  But then my ego forgets about dimension.   It is one thing to see with the eyes and quite another to see the same stretch with the heart or the energy body.  Understanding occurs once we've experienced something with all of our senses and sometimes going back in memory alone is insufficient and so, we seem to call to us similar situations with little changes and refinements to experience something yet again but at a deeper level.  I finally get that, I think and am no longer in a state of blaming myself for missing something.  I didn't miss anything at all but an opportunity to see something with different senses and from varying perspectives.  This realization alone is so liberating because I begin to fill like a much less stupid student on the path of life and instead feel as if I'm one beginning to get the lessons.

So, I find a time comes where I detach from the path itself.  The path and forward moving progress was something only my ego needed in order to feel good about itself.  The reality is, I've always felt good at heart, always positive, curious and willing to remain open despite the things I've encountered and then contemplated shutting down as a result.  I'm stronger than that and the lessons grow more difficult in this dream and I find that fascinating and with this fascination I look again at the lessons and I see that strangely, they are not so difficult at all and in fact are really growing easier in the scheme of things.  It just strikes my funny bone today for some reason.

Now I look around and ahead and I see the path stretched out again and I smile from inside knowing the path isn't really there at all.  I am the path, I am every twist and turn, I am the creator of impetus, motion and velocity.  I am the strangers I meet, the sun that shines and the rain that falls and cleanses everything.  My search comes to an end at the point the emptiness took hold of my consciousness and for a few brief moments, I felt I was grieving and then shortly thereafter, this stream of infinite thought, data, feeling, existence filled the emptiness like a down pour of rain in beautiful energy and light.  I'd be lying if I said I consciously understood because I don't but the soul of me knows this is the way, this is the path that leads home and if I'd never engaged in the path at all, I'd still have found the destination because it was within me all along.  We are both the journey and the destination...we are an integral part of the All of Everything seeking to shatter the illusion of our separateness.  Hmmm, well, I'm going to let these thoughts trail off and fade to the background music that plays continually inside of my head.  The new direction is nowhere.  I can't stop laughing.  It's beautiful.  ~Blessings for your journeys dear ones.  May you find the joy, peace and happiness of your own existence in this amazing dream.

Emerging Truths

I look out into this world and see the most amazing things most days.  In the face of a flower, I see sacred geometry staring back at me.  In the landscape, I see golden rectangles, spirals and light so beautiful it makes things glow.  I ask others sometimes, "Do you see that?" They'll reply, "See what?"  Then I'll say, "Look at the flowers, they are glowing.  Do you not see them?"  I'm stunned when they tell me no.  I'm reminded then that to see light sometimes, one has to be in the right perspective -- open to seeing, open to feeling and open to knowing that the light of a situation is always there just waiting for us to notice it.  Then my mind wanders off a little further to the trees speaking in colors, the sky raining down happiness in beautiful light and the clouds crawling across the blue forming angel's wings, faces and flowers in the sky--These things are all just amazing to me.  I look out into the world and this is some of what I see.  I usually wish to capture the moment in some way so that others might one day be over-taken by curiosity and begin to look for the light and the out of the ordinary as well.  I didn't know these things were there reflecting back to me in the world until I opened my heart enough to begin to see.

How many other things exist in the world that we do not see?  We are trained from early on to train our focus in a very limited manner -- to see things only a certain way - through concrete and superficial or material perspectives.  But, what did they miss when they taught us what blue was, and red, yellow or pink?  They forgot to teach us these things are energy vibrating in a specific pattern and when you  look for the energies you see it as proof that there is more to this world then we've been taught.  We've got so many amazing pioneering spirits out their proving that the world beyond our normal sight not only exists but lives, breathes and interacts with us all of the time.  Physics is amazing in this regard. Experimental outcomes can be changed just by our interaction, intent and observation! There are laws in science but there are some souls that come along and push the boundaries of the laws because they hold a vision of the world in a different way than most are taught.  I'm grateful for such souls or we might never travel thinking that we'd fall of the edge of the world!

Going with the vision theme, think of all the things you read about.  All of the words stem from visions inside someone else's head.  We read about the visions and are greatly entertained by the construct of complicated themes evoking in us emotion, energy and curiosity.  There are those who find a beautiful composition in nature and capture it in such a way that not only do you see what the artist saw but you begin to feel the emotion that inspired the artist.  How do you see emotion if it weren't for energy, intent and vision?  How would we truly learn if all of our senses were not already open to some degree?  Our perceptions sometimes seem so limited but I begin to firmly believe that the only limits in this world are born of those who hold too closely to the rules and laws set forth before them without testing and questioning them.  Those who willingly submit their free will to the limits, the rules of outdated doctrines and beliefs.  In fact, in some religious spheres, to question words written by men in antiquity equates to blasphemy, punishable by a fiery miserable afterlife.  Go back to being a child and hearing the words, "Because I said so."  How did those words make you feel?  Did not the strong knowing soul within you most instantly wish to rebel because it ultimately knows the truth or it would not question at all?  We are made to question as we are sentient beings by the grace of some unseen Force in this Universe that gave us such an ability.  Why should we deny ourselves and what we were made to do ever?  Knowledge is power.

I'm grateful to whatever Force in the Universe or Source of our Creation and I don't really care if that Source was a random accident, a benevolent Father or Mother figure, a master thought in the mind of the All of Everything or if ET's that popped in and decided to foster lives through collective DNA experiments for whatever reasons.  In the end, what does it really matter?  If you take away all of these thoughts and concepts that many of us kill each other over, do we not still exist living and breathing here in this big beautiful world?  We are not liquified where we stand for questioning our origins or seeking the truth.  In fact, whatever ingenious design it was that created us into who and what we are, gave us an amazing ability to think for ourselves, to test our vision, question everything until we come to know the truth of things.  And I'm sorry, I cannot accept the truth written down by any being here in this frame that has an ego.  That means every word, no matter how divinely inspired, was judged and then committed to verse, not to mention some unscrupulous and manipulative souls who intended to control small minds with great fear.  I cannot get into conspiracy theories, debates on the religious truths in existence or further debate on our origins.  We each have our own minds and can make them up for ourselves as we learn and grow.  No one is made greater or lesser by their beliefs.  I respect that.  Ultimately,  I'm just grateful,  infinitely grateful to whatever Source it was in the Universe that lead to my existence here and now and I need no superiority debate in my favor in order to be okay with who I am.  I know and can feel the truth of the sentiments behind my words and what does and does not resonate light for me.  I wish you all a bright and beautiful day of contemplation and pure amazing and wonderful existence.  ~Blessings.
