Accepting the Now, in Others

Photo by Leroy Skalstad

Other peoples place in time, their personal circumstance in now, is exactly where they need to be. It may be a minor taboo to see it this way, but in reality, in truth, it is the only way it can be. To say someone should or should not be where they are, is . . . →Read the Rest: Accepting the Now, in Others

When all is done, and your seeking comes to an end, what you will discover is… You Are, What You Have Been Searching For. That is when the search will end. It is very common place in our culture to be obsessed with the search; as if things the way they are, are . . . →Read the Rest: You Are, What You’ve Been Searching For

What Are You Hiding From?

Photo by Scott Moore

Is your home life consistent with the life you present to the world? Do you put on a smile and hide your anger, only waiting to express it when you get home?

Freedom From Pain = Inccorect Truth

Photo by Gabriella Fabbri

Unfortunately we’ve been sold an idea that mankind’s ultimate state of being is free from pain, and until we reach that state we remain unenlightened and far from who we really are. This idea is completely and utterly incorrect, when it comes to truth. Freedom to be who you are, is freedom to . . . →Read the Rest: Freedom From Pain = Inccorect Truth

Implication of Perceiving Others

The implications would be huge.  Instead of seeing others as you want them to be, desire for them their highest vision.

Conditioned Resistance

The reason this form of living is so common, (denial and resistance) is because we have been taught to attach our identity with all things “bad” we experience. We are taught if what we do is bad and negative, then we must be bad and negative ourselves, leading us towards guilt, shame, and fear. . . . →Read the Rest: Conditioned Resistance

Feeling Down

Feeling down, or depressed, is only seen as bad because we interpret it as such.  Simply because we don’t enjoy the experience,we acknowledge it doesn’t have a right to be present, or is void of value; this puts us in a position where we fight against “what is,” creating a divided consciousness with resistance.

. . . →Read the Rest: Feeling Down

Relationship Fear

Think about how you have grown beyond relationships, those connections that once served purpose but now seem to only hold you down.  Some of these transitions have been difficult, others have been without thought.  One note we might recognize is the influence these new relationships have had on our growth, how they may have . . . →Read the Rest: Relationship Fear

Habit of Light

The next time you come across a situation where you see another as separate, viewing them as a label rather than the love they deserve, make an effort to understand -if you wanted to, you could have seen them in an entirely different light, one that would have empowered the higher self, and created . . . →Read the Rest: Habit of Light

Prickly Stick

I feel the world becoming smaller in my mind.  I used to see it as such a big place, with an enormous amount of people; …with myself cast to the side to defend against fear.  In this state, it was easier to succumb to daily annoyances that ultimately were of little significance.  Now, I . . . →Read the Rest: Prickly Stick

Disagreement Agreed

-”I don’t see it that way, but I certainly appreciate your point.”  -This is a phrase I have found myself recently using.  In a conversation where I’m being sold a view based on a world were symptoms are the problem, I find myself in total disagreement and complete appreciation of another’s opinion.  In . . . →Read the Rest: Disagreement Agreed

Collective Harmony

Allow me to ask a series of important questions pertaining to the well being of mankind.  Is it possible for two neighbors to live in peace for any length of time?  At what point is there a requirement for these people to be at war with each other?  Finally, how many neighbors does it . . . →Read the Rest: Collective Harmony

Equal Flaws

If we lived in a world were we acknowledged all men and women as having flaws, and the possibility of someone being better or worse was non existent and only seen as unique, what would our actions toward self and others look like?  How different our life would be, if there was no need . . . →Read the Rest: Equal Flaws

Relative Growth

Your growth, is not meant to exceed the growth of your neighbor, but is simply meant to expand with goodness within your own uniqueness.

This means that when we grow, don’t look to the ‘haves and haves not’ of others to define where you should be, but look at your life in its wholeness . . . →Read the Rest: Relative Growth

Valid Discovery – 0097

Until we can see each person as completely valid, regardless if we agree with them or not, we will never know true peace; and as we begin to see more clearly, beyond the separateness, we find more opportunities to discover our own true selves and experience more genuine Love; resulting of course, in a . . . →Read the Rest: Valid Discovery – 0097

Desired Love – 0095

Have you ever taken the time, to stare into the eyes of another, and purposely seen their desire to Love and be Loved; unconditionally, without judgments. This is a place of complete acceptance.

 

Today, challenge yourself to see love in those who yesterday were only seen as a waste of time; those who . . . →Read the Rest: Desired Love – 0095

Love Attachment – 0089

Yes, you can wait a life time for True Love; but in the end you will only discover it as ever present.

Crazy Train – 0080

We all ride our own Crazy Train; what matters for a peaceful ride is does your train lead towards more love and acceptance or away towards fear, judgment, and separation. Excerpt from “Ride the Crazy Train of Love; Am I going to . . . →Read the Rest: Crazy Train – 0080

Generalized Value – 0074

When people make generalizing statements about life or mankind, it’s often a reflection of how they secretly feel about themselves.  To say “people are rude and hateful” or “life is a waste of time,” this is simply a reflection of how they see their own value at a specific time or consistently.

Create Joyfully – 0067

What if just for today… you didn’t have to be right. No need to defend your self against the opinion of other people.

I ask ‘what if’ because it is not something to be forced; . . . →Read the Rest: Create Joyfully – 0067

Colorfully Connected – 0058

Did you know that you can direct coincidences, those moments which seem colorfully connected to life? All these little curious events, are connected to the thoughts you hold. It’s an intention that holds in mind the higher good of man, a love for one’s self, and the acceptance of others; if our thoughts are . . . →Read the Rest: Colorfully Connected – 0058

Wishing

It’s amazing the amount of time we spend wishing things were not the way they are; resisting what is; the weather, events, ourselves. I wonder how much more peace we would experience if we could accept ‘what is,’ and let life unfold naturally without our illusion of control.  Yes, this will be extremely difficult the for . . . →Read the Rest: Wishing

World “I” Change

The whole world doesn’t have to change, for you to experience a changed world. Your experience in this world will change for the better, when you can see the world as in you, rather than outside you.

Significant Now

The Significance you seek through complaining, is an illusion of the ego; which only creates suffering. True Significance starts with acceptance of self, others, and what is.
