Exploring the Heart

Every day is a new beginning, an opportunity to make a dream come true. Whether it is the first step, the final piece, or somewhere in between, the gift of breath provides a bridge form one place to the next. It’s easy to be complacent. It takes courage to walk the path unknown. Whether the adventure is internal or external, exploration awaits. One will never know the outcome if one refuses the start. The greatest gifts are on the path between start and finish. If one lets go of expectations of the current and steps into the flow he will find his pace. Perhaps he will swim. Perhaps he will float. The pace is up to him. One can reach the same point both ways. True, one doesn’t sink or drown if he refuses to enter the water. But if he doesn’t enter, he doesn’t experience the joy of adventure offered nor does he benefits the rewards along the way or at its completion. Without courage, one will never become what he could have been. A cloudy day can be just what is needed, but when the sun chooses to be seen all seems to take in a renewed energy. One has the power to take wandering and wondering to new levels. One only needs to wander into the wonder by initiating the first step of a goal.

The Circle

In the beginning there was love. The act of creation was an act of love, so this very essence of love was expressed in every creation as was its foundation. The same applies now for all that is created from the heart. That which is created from ego is not of lasting value and will eventually crumble, wither away. The breath of life is a creation of love, thus why it is eternal. Man argues it is mortal. They fail to acknowledge the circle of life which is such as physical incarnations. Those of awareness know this and connect the breath as that of Source, knowing it to be eternal in the heavens and sent to earth in various expressions to experience knowledge in many ways and forms. The connection of man in his physical embodiment to that of his spiritual nature is his sole purpose. Though he plays many roles and has many jobs and talents throughout his incarnations, his purpose remains the same. It is through the accumulation of these experiences he gains the wisdom of his true essence. Genius. Mastery. Attunement. Awareness. Ascension. Transformation. Completion. The word which is used for that of a human uniting with his spirit is of no matter. Remember who you are. Use your gifts. Be the shining sun you are. The path is lit before you. Your own heart is shining the way. Use your light to ignite the flame in others. Help them find the way out of the darkness as you have. They will use their flame as you did to search within. May your love and peace spill upon others and encourage their pursuit.

We are Love

We – you – are people of Earth. We feel her pain. We feel her joy. We are her heartbeat. We are the wind, her breath. She lives through each of us, and each of us through her. We are the flow of the river, above and beneath the ground; the eternal spring of living water. We are the roots of the trees which ground us in place and wings of the birds which grant us freedom. We are the beauty of every bloom. See, we are the blood, the breath, and the beauty. We are the physical forces of nature in its rawest power. We are her. She is us. We are one. Remember this. Feel her heart beat in your chest. Feel her blood flow through your veins. Feel her roots pull you. Feel her wings give you flight. Feel her. Remember her. Remember who you are. You contain the force of a storm and the gentleness of a pond. You know how and when to use each one. The choice is yours. While there is a time for all things, all these things must spring from love. For love is the beginning, the now, and the future. For the mother (Earth) is love. She nurtures from such as well as disciplines. She is love in its original state. She is the basis of this world. Humans distorted her purpose. Remember her love. Remember her purpose. For her love and her purpose is yours. For you are her, and you are us…we are one. We are love.

The Beauty of You

Stay true to your path; acknowledge the needs of your soul. Spirit will lead you where you need to be. Jump in the river, so to speak – you have the strength to swim the current. No need to fight against it. It will guide you to the exact place you need to be. The river is within you. It is not an outside force. It is a single stream which runs through your soul. This is your true knowing within. This river is home; all your spirit needs is sourced from this bed of living water. Drink. Bathe. Know you are one with it. Trust, this is your true essence. No outside influence can equip you to better know yourself. No matter what they think they know, they know not YOUR bigger picture. This image is a tiny seed within. You are unfurling one petal at a time, and will fully bloom in your own timing. This way is specifically designed for you, not dictated by others. There is no need to explain your path to anyone. Keep swimming; it’s more difficult to tread water than swim with the current. You are not only the swimmer; you are the river. The current is your power. Both the water lily and the lotus move with the water. The lily leaves lie flat with the surface while the lotus rises above the level. Both bloom. Their leaves and flowers distinctly differ, yet they symbolize all that is true. They are nurtured by the water and nurture the water in return. Know you are worthy. Know you are loved beyond measure. Stay true to your essence.

The River Within

Information is mental. Wisdom is heart centered. While information is useful, wisdom is essential. One side of the bank is information, and the other side is wisdom. In the middle, where they meet, is the river. The river can be chaotic and dangerous if one ones leads his life with judgment rather than discernment. This alone, the ability to choose, is what determines which side of the bank one will dwell. All need the water. Some will only tip their toe within the flow. Some will wade. Others will swim with the current. All are choices. The substance from which one draws determines the choice. Where do you dwell? Are you a toe dipper, a wader, or a swimmer?

The Grasp of Love

“When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he finds it attached to the rest of the world.” ~John Muir

Earth supports man. Man must reciprocate this energy. It is this energy exchange that heals and balances both. If one, instead of exhausting all efforts before turning to love, approaches all through love, he will often see his answer before the question arises. This is the process of ancient forests. Each tree does this in cooperation with the whole. They understand the cycle of life and integration of all systems within the forest. They act accordingly, each supporting one another. They communicate on a level most humans do not comprehend. When one makes a decision based on the highest good of all, he invites others to join him. They co-create an environment of healing which harmonizes all. This change builds better worlds. While man lives in a busy world and may think he has little time to make a positive impact, this one simple act of love benefits not only humankind but all he touches. Will you be one to reach out and touch the world with love?

Being the Wave

The tides are changing. Humans must adapt accordingly. They have come to believe they must turn to outside sources for knowledge and direction. One must learn all he needs to know comes from within. One must practice stillness to find the way inside. Through this application, he develops the relationship of trust with self in connecttion to Source. As man does this, he begins to flow with the water; his rhythm matches that of the tide. He becomes the wave, both the water and the current. What rides in and out with the wave becomes a part of him just as the is part of the ocean. All are one. As a wave goes out to sea, it collects much along the way, losing some of its gatherings upon its return to shore. In this continuous cycle, one picks up what he needs at the time and gives it back when done. He keeps what is best for his highest good and shares with others so they also can benefit. These very attributes will display themselves differently from human to human. Its reception upon receipt is perception, thus creating various perspectives and beliefs. One always has the ability to change his perspective but remains his person. Such is the same with unity…we are various perspectives of the One.
