Words are what we say and interpret so that our human minds can understand. Words are words…so do you really think that limited words can explain who we are and what the purpose of life is? Can words truly describe the feeling within a sunset or a newborn kitten? Don’t put so much into words…it is in the unexplainable ‘awe’ of the experiences that make us feel as one and create a vibration of unexplainable love, joy, and understanding.
I can’t tell you how many times I have been moved to tears, not being able to utter a single word, not having the words to describe an experience that reached down to the very depth of who I am and felt that incredible pure vibration of connection and love….no words can describe it adequately…
Those moments are meant for us to feel so deeply that we are left in awe knowing that we are connected to the purest flow of who we truly are…an unlimited being full of so much more than we will ever know. Pretty amazing, isn’t it?
Happiness is not caused by certain things, or even certain experiences, even though it seems that way…at first. You see, that thing or that experience is only a teeny tiny part of your infinite consciousness and there is where true happiness lays. When you connect to the happiness within, everything will create happiness for you.
Find the happiness in your ordinary moments…start there. As you eat your breakfast think about how good it is….how happy it makes you. As you talk on the phone, think about how wonderful it is to have a phone and enjoy talking to a friend…how happy it makes you. As you sit in traffic, think about where you will be going, even if you will be going just a little later, and how good it will feel to get there…how happy it makes you. As you sit at the table and decide to have a little dessert and then only eat some of it, think about how good it felt to you since you are doing your best to lose a few pounds…how happy it makes you. As you read posts, only read posts that make you feel happy, and then think on that happiness…how happy it makes you.
As you build upon these happy moments you will find that things begin to take on a different ‘look’…everything around you seems…well…happy! And you are now attracting even more happiness into your life.
Isn’t the life experience grand?!
Problems can come from impatience. When we try to push, to unfold an experience faster than it is supposed to be unfolded, we create resistance. Sometimes it just takes time…all is well.
No pushy, pushy! Let it unfold as it should…and it will. 
Think of someone and dwell on their kindness instead of their mistakes. Understand and allow his perceptions giving him thanks for all that he has taught you whether it is a ‘want or don’t want’ he has shown you. Each person, each thing, each experience helps us to expand our consciousness and creates many ripples of vibration out to others as well as to yourself. ‘Be’ kindness, live kindness, see kindness, feel kindness…it is everywhere especially within you and the Universe.
I’m what you call a ‘blesser.’ I bless everything that crosses my path but I mostly bless the ones that feel less than happy and create chaos around them. What does blessing do for me? It releases their vibration from my sphere. When I’m unable to do a thing about someone’s behavior, I say within my mind, “Bless you sir or bless you ma’am,” and then I go on my way. It works for me especially with people I just cross paths with for the day. Now when it comes to certain family members…I may have to do a lot of blessing to go on my way! lol
Imagine just for a moment…the mind with only the full eternal truth…all masks of illusions gone. How do you think it would feel?
Remember a moment where, for just a minute, nothing was in the way of you feeling love, feeling safe, and secure.
Now…take that moment and imagine what it would be like to experience that feeling for the rest of your life.
Feel the vibration of being safe, being secure, and being loved.
Now take that feeling, that vibration and make it even bigger…THIS is what it feels like to live in each moment, trust what the Universe has to offer, and to just ‘be’ through eternal truth.
It is ALL possible. Can’t you feel the unlimited feelings? Yep…unlimited possibilities and vibrations.
Funny how it works. Before you can figure out what works in your life or what is right for you in this world, before you come into alignment with reaching a higher vibration, you have to figure out what you don’t want, what no longer works, and what it takes to align. But once you find what doesn’t feel good and doesn’t work then that is when to take the focus off the contrast (because it did its job), and now focus on what you do want. And what a wonderful feeling reaching for higher vibrations and aligning.
The world of contrast…go figure.
Sit still and put all thoughts aside of everything…what you have learned living in the physical world, how you may feel about yourself, what the Universe is. Take out all thoughts of bad or good, right or wrong, left or right, the past and the future, the feelings of hurt or feeling ashamed.
Now…in this moment I want you to just ‘be’ with the Universe taking away all the perceived notions of this physical life and ‘be’ in the presence of the Universe filling yourself with the most amazing unconditional love, light, and acceptance. The vibrations you send out in that moment.
Ohhh…what a feeling. Just like a baby in her mother’s arms…unconditionally loved and content ‘being.’

Know that if you can’t seem to feel the light within today, it doesn’t mean that your light has disappeared. It is the time to have trust and faith in this Universe and know that even if the sky is covered in clouds and it feels as if you will never see the sun again, it is there…the light, the truth is always there. Behind every cloud the light is steadily burning and the clouds won’t last forever…eventually the clouds will part to reveal the beautiful light.
You are an ever burning, amazing, insightful, incredibly powerful, beautiful eternal light…THAT is who you are.
If you want peace, your first step is to hold it within your heart. You see, peace can’t extend outward unless you hold a vibration of it first. Then peace will radiate from your very being calling others who are of like mind. Each thought you have creates a vibration and you are its home. The home you keep within… is the home you will have physically in this world.
As you will find in everything, yes everything in your world, it all begins within you.
You know…when you are meditating you don’t have to have some extraordinary insight or experience for it to be valuable. You can have amazing insights but if you don’t, it doesn’t mean that your meditation time wasn’t of value…it is always of value as you connect one on one with the Universe.
When I first began to meditate, I would end up laughing at the thought of sitting still for even five minutes. I would squirm, my mind would wander, and I would try to bring my mind back to a center of nothingness, only to start it all over again. Then after about two weeks, I noticed a difference in my meditation time. I could last a little longer and a little longer each time. If I skipped a day, it was like starting at square one once again but then…I got the hang of it. It took a while for insights and answers to come about but I felt good, I felt clearer, I felt as if I was making choices I hadn’t before. And then one day it flows and unfolded and the thoughts and feelings began to flow onto paper.
Many of us automatically try to fix and solve. And sometimes we can get so caught up in fixing and rescuing that we forget all about doing it in a loving way. We have to remember when we ‘fix’ something it is important that you are asked for help. If you go to ‘fix’ a situation of other this indicates that something is broken. Nothing is broken…only a different perception, vibration, and experience of what ‘seems’ broken. By ‘fixing’ we are creating a ‘tight’ feeling vibration that creates…well…you know…more of the same. How about we look at it as changing a vibration of our own and not ‘fixing’ what truly isn’t broken.
When solving and fixing remember to hug and be hugged mentally, physically, and spiritually…trust and deepen the experience through contact.
Are you a fixer or maybe someone who sees pain another is going through and want to help somehow? Oh man…I am but I have to tell you that as I have gotten older, my fix it tool box has changed. No longer ruled through the need to fix or control. Now…from the thoughts of positive thinking. And there are times where I know when to step back and let another ‘fix it’ even though they may not be able to. Sometimes, if we try to fix without really thinking about it, we may be stunting another’s growth of their life experience by helping when they need to help themselves instead. Just remember that no matter how you fix, whether it is through no helping or helping… put love into it… not only out of a sense of responsibility or what others might think.
Love…my friend…love.
If you don’t believe that you are able to use your thinking as power, you have denied the power of thought, and it becomes powerless because of your own belief.
Kind of hurts the brain, doesn’t it? hee hee But oh so true…
Being compassionate doesn’t mean you have to give up your own truth. It doesn’t mean that you have to vilify the person who may have hurt you either. Don’t you think that you can stay open to the truth of who you are, and understand that the other person feels they are living their truth as well, even if their truth inadvertently hurts you? Maybe it wasn’t meant to hurt…and if it was then understanding may be your answer. The understanding that another is creating their experience through their vibration and that hurt is truly an attraction of their own. You have a choice how to react from within. You can choose to be hurt or understand that it is their own hurt that creates their hurtful words. Now you have the decision whether to bring that hurt into your own vibration or…find compassion thereby releasing it from your vibration.
But…but…yeah I know. What do you do when someone is yanking your chain and you feel the need to be upset…and angry…and think not so positive thoughts? Sigh…it happens to the best of us and the contrast is part of life but we really do have the choice how we decide to ‘take on’ another’s thoughts about us. There are times where the words can be hurtful and we must look within ourselves to see if there is any truth to the words because sometimes, just sometimes, we may be feeling about ourselves exactly what the other person has expressed. In that case we have been shown the truth of what we have created within ourselves and we have become aware through that moment.
Then there are the times where you know that this did not come from your attraction yet it has come into your life for a purpose…to learn, understand, experience, and then let it go. So…really…you attracted it in this way as well…just for a different purpose.
This has nothing to do with the person who has aimed their arrow at you to hurt. The outcome can come out in a good way for you when you decide how to create the vibration of your reaction. Whether they yell and scream or just point fingers, it is all about how you create the next moment. And if they continue on and on, it is still up to you to create the next vibration from within…this will diffuse within you… leaving you with a bright shiny vibration minus the hurt, and another experience you have gained understanding about.
Did you know that there is no rush when it comes to higher self learning? When it is time for us to learn something, it comes into our life no matter how young or old we are and no matter how many times we have to start all over again. It always comes to you in the right time…so how about enjoying the journey as you unfold?
Let things unfold just as they should. The Universe knows every detail, every experience that must be experienced and lived to take you to the next higher vibration. How about enjoying the whole experience of expansion of consciousness? How about going about your day knowing that everything will unfold all in the right timing AND living and being aware of each moment instead of wanting the next moment to come? Take a leisurely scenic walk through life instead of the marathon where it’s not possible to see all that you experience along the way.
To sacrifice is to separate from love. Sacrifice brings guilt. It is only love that can bring peace…there’s no need to sacrifice when all actions can come from love.
I can’t tell you how many times I have heard parents say, “Yes…big gulp…I sacrificed so much to put my child through college.” Hmmm…by saying you have sacrificed your life experiences for another, isn’t something that is truly out of love even though the thought may have initially been from love. As you sacrifice, you create guilt for the one you sacrifice for. They feel that. They may be appreciative but many will think, for the rest of their lives, they have to somehow ‘pay you back’ for all that sacrificing. But not only that, the thought vibration of sacrifice, is met with resistance. It is as if you are going against what you normally would have done (resistance) for someone else.
How about instead of sacrifice, we give freely with no strings attached? How about from pure love? How about not building any guilt, resistance, or even resent because of sacrificing? Oh the vibrations you can build from…love.
Symbols in our lives are beautiful living mirrors of our deepest insights and understanding that have no words. Symbols can unlock many doors to our own expansion of consciousness. A star, a heart, the peace sign invoke something deep within us that we understand without ever uttering a word. Create a symbol for yourself that represents all you are and envision to be. It’s an empowering reminder to all it represents.
Just for today…be aware. Be aware of what the Universe may be showing you through symbols. A puddle of water, a misshapen flower…whatever it may be…be aware. In those wonderful symbols lies a simple understanding or concept that you have wanted to know and when you become aware, you open the doors to your inner self where all symbols can be interpreted.
It reminds me of a time when I wasn’t sure which direction to turn. I had been waiting for an answer and doing my best to leave it up to the timing but there are times you just need a little encouragement as you wait. I had passed the same building over and over again while driving but on this particular day I was aware of everything around me. As I passed by that building once again I was aware of its address ’1111.’ THAT was a message to me since this number had strong significance for me. Every time I had gone into town I had passed that building but that day, between being aware and asking for a message to my soul, it came clear. Oh..and the timing? It happened all is the right timing as it should…happy sigh…I just LOVE how it all works together perfectly.
So many times we think in conventional ways as to how something can happen for us. At first all the doors seem closed. But when you are able to see from a much bigger picture, you’ll be able to see that your life is truly barrier free. Remove from your thoughts and mind that there is only the conventional way and instead realize that there are many ways, conventional and unconventional, to opening the door. Think beyond the limits of the mind and think and feel with your higher self where unlimited possibilities are endless.
When you open yourself up to the thought that there are unlimited possibilities that you just haven’t thought of as of yet, the Universe sends the same vibration right back to you…unlimited possibilities.
Whatever it is that you just can’t seem to enjoy doing, do your best to accept that it is something you have to do for now. Accepting means that, just for now, no matter what your circumstance, in that moment whatever you have to do, you will do with no resistance and a glad heart.
And when you provide no resistance to the very experience that you accept as it is, you will move on to something much better. Letting go of resistance is a wonderful way to align with what you do want in life.
So let’s ‘clink’ our glasses to letting resistance go and aligning!
Hmmm…so what are you going to choose? The new life you are envisioning or the fears you are envisioning? It is up to you whether you want to create a life with fear…or not. You see, you can choose peace, love, a grateful heart in all that you do but that will mean you have to choose a new life vibration. You don’t have to choose compassion and love but then you won’t be creating the new life you have envisioned. You’ll be creating the old one with fears attached. You don’t have to fear or worry…you are well taken care of and every moment, every experience, no matter what it looks like from the outside, is bringing you to your next moment. YOU get to choose how to live it…in a positive or a negative frame of mind. Either way you get what you are focusing upon.
So why do I practice ‘being’ positive? Because it is a way that I know I am living from the very core of who I am. When you stay in a positive feeling vibration it is coming from your true light from within but when you focus on negative, you are stepping away from who you are.
I think I prefer ‘being’ me.
Many times we hang on to feelings that keep us from letting go of what no longer works in life. Some use pride, fear, or being uncomfortably comfortable, to hold tight to what is no longer needed. We give up our own possibilities of a new vibration and way of living because we feel the need to accommodate the fear and worry of those around us.
Can you imagine how freeing it could be to let go of what no longer serves our lives? The past hurt, the past memories of what could have been, the past guilt, all brushed off your shoulders taking only the learning that came along with it instead of the emotional vibrations that are holding you back?
You can let them go…you can…to reveal a lighter vibration of clarity.
