Finding Your Direction in this Wonderland

The Cheshire Cat, is a wise cat.

-Quotation Wednesday

Alice came to a fork in the road.  “Which road do I take?” she asked. “Where do you want to go?” responded the Cheshire cat. “I don’t know,” Alice answered. “Then,” said the cat, “it doesn’t matter.” ~Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

The lesson of course is… it doesn’t matter which road . . . →Read the Rest: Finding Your Direction in this Wonderland

I’m not that Guy

I’m sorry, you might have me confused with someone else. In this moment it is not my desire to motivate anyone, nor is it any interest of mine to help you feel better about the “I” you have created. If you’d like to get your self-esteem boosted, I’d recommend looking elsewhere. If . . . →Read the Rest: I’m not that Guy

Thought Suspicion

I wonder about the depths of mind, the deepest parts of consciousness.  It is our most present self, and the least understood.  When the mind is busy, the heart becomes cluttered.  How ever can we “know,” with all the noise within us?

It is my suspicion, that our running thoughts, run in a direction . . . →Read the Rest: Thought Suspicion

Are U Real?

Okay, tell me this; have you ever had the thought, that the world is a stage and all the people around you may not actually be as you are, and you are the only one truly playing this game called life.   I find it to be somewhat of a logical thought, considering it . . . →Read the Rest: Are U Real?

Potential Moment

There are so many possibilities of what “could be” true.  Have you ever felt like you were so overwhelmed by the possibilites of what’s real?  Whether it’s science, religion, philosophy, politics, right and wrong, etc, etc, etc, there are simply too many options for one person to choose between them all.

Living Food

When I gaze upon a piece of fruit, say a blue berry, I enjoy taking time to engage its nature by attempting to see the universe within it.  I realize my perspective of size is only relative to the size of the fingers which hold it, without this measurement, the blue berry very realistically . . . →Read the Rest: Living Food

Precise Influence

I see life as being very precise, exact; quick with its decisions and slow with its thought. Whether it’s the rain pouring down, or the soft ripple in a pond, they all seem to have their own placement in this vast universe. It’s as if they are at the center of it all, knowing . . . →Read the Rest: Precise Influence

Sincere Transparency

Why do people desire sincerity?  Possibly because instinctively we know much of our world as fabricated, with not much honesty that reaches the heart and soul. We get it, pop stars are cool; we get, your cars worth a billion dollars; yes we understand your political position, but in all honesty I’m not really . . . →Read the Rest: Sincere Transparency

Incredible Synergy between Thought and Action

It’s easy to wait for things to happen in life, without giving sincere focus towards what you truly desire.  The challenge of course becomes, nothing ever happens.  It’s like watching your favorite tv show and and thinking about that passionate business you once wanted to start, your thoughts become passive with no substance towards . . . →Read the Rest: Incredible Synergy between Thought and Action

Redundant Bubble – Social Conformity

Pick a political side. Which side of the road are you on?  -dude, I’m not even on your street, I’m three blocks this way, and I’m just visiting, I’m not even from around here.

Seems redundantly boring to narrow the mind and be forced into a label of perceived good and bad.  I’ll also . . . →Read the Rest: Redundant Bubble – Social Conformity

Confident Dance

Have you ever laid wide awake in the middle of the night, and noticed sounds that have always been present but it had been a long while since you noticed them?  It’s amazing how loud these noises can become when we enter into silence.  It’s as if someone turned their volume up ten fold.

Remember Amazing

Does life sometimes seem as though there lives within it a cruel plot to prevent your heart from shining brightly.  Maybe the walk has discouraged the soul from making any sort of meaningful progress.  Or perhaps the mind is overwhelmed with illusion and has been convinced that pain is the natural order of things. . . . →Read the Rest: Remember Amazing

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

Age in Now

Age has absolutely nothing to do with spiritual or conscious maturity, age is only an idea reinforced by our fear of an imaginary death. Your growth is… what is, and can only increase by choosing to be present in now and understanding a more true perception. It is a choice, don’t think for a . . . →Read the Rest: Age in Now

Artist & Gardener

Self Preservation

Preservation of Self at the expense of human decency and compassion toward others is not preservation at all, it is destruction of the whole.

To preserve life and self fully, you are invited to recognize a cooperation with the whole, an organization that says one is not better than another, and all deserve human . . . →Read the Rest: Self Preservation

Discovery Priority

Since what you seek is ultimately a deeper connection with self, wouldn’t it be wise to understand more deeply a knowingness about who you truly are.  How much of a priority is this discovery?  On a side note… It is my own ignorance, that keeps me from progress.  It is my own obsession, that . . . →Read the Rest: Discovery Priority

Collective Family

Deception is a form of withheld Love.  In a world where profit overrides compassionate honesty, how can we ever truly be honest with ourselves when we are a world consumed with competition and gain?  Maybe these ideas of forced separation (competition and gain), comes with a deception that desires for you to forget who . . . →Read the Rest: Collective Family

Nervous Honesty

Look clearly at the movements around you. Notice the discomforts you experience. Understand your environment completely. Hmmm… notice deeply the connection between how you truly feel about yourself, and the pain you experience with each new season. There is a reflection that takes place awaiting your discovery. How we sincerely feel about ourselves, mirrors . . . →Read the Rest: Nervous Honesty

Contagious Love *Expanded

A contagious sense of love overcomes my heart in this moment.  As I sit upon a hill, I see the city lights below, a display of perception awaiting a meaning.  All that I can ask is that we might collectively choose to see the inherent oneness within all of life.

I ask for humanity sake, we learn to accept others as completely whole.  Let us we come to a point where the fault we see in others, becomes the fault of our own, for we judged in a manner that saw only the separation rather than the obvious need for more love.  Can we end this silly cycle of competition, and accept a cooperation that serves the good of all humanity?



Collective Success

A world divided against itself, is a consciousness in great need to mature.  When we live in a world where thousands and thousands of children die everyday from hunger, and we complain about trivial differences relating to race, social status, and that which we think we need, this is a clear sign of a . . . →Read the Rest: Collective Success

Find Compassion

Can you find compassion for the child with no mother who goes hungry because he is unable to make his own food?  Then find compassion for those who are poor and do not yet have the understanding that you have when it comes to sustaining ones own life with health and dignity.

Compassion, is . . . →Read the Rest: Find Compassion

Corporate Slavery

I often hear business owners talk about how difficult it is to find good employees, like in the old days.  Maybe people are starting to understand the inherent slavery in the job world, and how it stifles their creative and unique genius.

Incentives and competition are rapidly losing their sexy appeal, as we are . . . →Read the Rest: Corporate Slavery

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

Compassionate Dream – 0091

I believe the organization behind all of life carries with it a sense-of-humor that knows our experience as only a dream.

 

This comedy is not one of judgment but of compassion, knowing that in our times of pain we see the dream as reality, drawing our identity from the experience. If we saw . . . →Read the Rest: Compassionate Dream – 0091

Birthed Uniqueness – 0088

Read Slowly… Everyone’s pain, is their own. We are birthed into an environment where uniqueness is contained as an infinite universe within the Self.

Creative Value – 0083

Infinite Wholeness – 0078

It’s not so much that you “bring” your desires into your life, as it is to “attract” them into your life.  To bring is to talk, wait, and dream; attract is to discover, move, and accept.  Discover by constantly expressing your self in now with a desire to understand, Move towards a vision with . . . →Read the Rest: Infinite Wholeness – 0078

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

Beauty Now – 0066

What I find most attractive about my wife, beyond her stunning beauty, is her willingness to BE. This willingness allows her the opportunity to discover life now, as it happens – rather than in the past or in a hopeful tomorrow. She is Hopeful Now.

Because of this, she is able to create Love . . . →Read the Rest: Beauty Now – 0066

Opinionly Powerless – 0061

Other people will always create their own definition of who I am. But honestly, what does their opinion have anything to do with the definition I choose to give my self. If I let other people define who I am, I give over the power to create my own life.

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

Acknowledge Love

When you see Love, let Love know.  Acknowledge the goodness around you, and it will be more willing to come around your way.

Ungrounded Identity

The reason you feel so ungrounded internally, is because you’ve attached your identity to perception, which is only an idea or thought; it is not real. You have allowed the foundation of who you are, to be based on an illusion, a mental construct.

Non-Physical Dream

If you have a “big dream,” you are invited to first awaken and see that dream as non physical. There is an internal meaning or message, that is more real than the physical dream job, physical dream house, or ultimate physical experience; this meaning or message, is what you are truly searching for, everything . . . →Read the Rest: Non-Physical Dream
