No Valor in Suffering

Posted on by

There is no valor in suffering
Source does not ask you
to learn through fear or pain.

Source knows not
of fear, nor pain
nor suffering
these are old human concepts
from antiquated matrix programming
handed down through the ages

When feeling any discomfort
immediately rise to the highest orientation
and view the situation anew.
This is not denial
wearing rose colored glasses
or putting your head in the sand.

This is living from
the expanded consciousness of Source
that offers infinite solutions
rather than drawing upon
the old battle-worn experiences
that initially plummeted your energy.

Rise up, Beloveds
see clearly as Source sees
and take the path of Ease and Grace.

The Soul’s Reality

Posted on by

It does not matter
if you dream it
envisioned it
read it in a novel
or live it.

It all becomes
soul experience
when you allow yourself
to feel it deeply enough
to embody it.

The soul does not require
mental validation
nor judges
one experience
against another.

The soul distills
the essence
of each experience
into wisdom
as its reality.

Everything else
dissolves as illusion.

Reality as we Know it

Posted on by

Reality as we know it
is simply an agreement
between enough people to call it real.

When we give up our need
for the approval of others
EVERYTHING becomes real to us.

We become like children again
living in total wonderment
open to ever-expanding possibilities.

Seed of Passion

Posted on by

If you pull up a plant
by the roots,
the plant dies.

But if you very gently
push the soil away
until you discover the roots . . .

what you will find
is the seed of passion
that birthed the plant
the ardor for life
the vigor to thrive
the joy to blossom
the zeal to bear fruit.

Wisdom
lies in the seed
of the plant
and in the heart
of the child within.

Be gentle
with the seed
for therein lies your
ardor for life
vigor to thrive
joy to blossom
and zeal to bear fruit.

Liberating the Mind

Posted on by

Our Divine Knowing surfaces
when we liberate
the mind’s need
to understand
and be fully cognizant.

The mind does not
the mind can not
begin to understand
nor explain
our expanding consciousness.

Attempting to dissect
and explain
what the mind considers surreal
only distracts us
with useless mind chatter.

Relax, beloved one
release the mind’s
obsession to understand
and trust your divinity
to lead the way.

For your GodSelf
always orchestrates
your expanded consciousness
and fulfills your life
with ease and grace.

Seeing with the Eyes of the Soul

Posted on by

I asked to be shown
that which I was afraid to see
not through the human self
who sees with the eyes of judgment
rather through the eyes of my GodSelf

To see with the eyes of the soul
she who sees the bigger picture
she who realizes each has a role to play
she who holds no judgment
she who has the purity of heart.

And thus I lay my head upon my pillow
nestle under my warm duvet
and enter dreamtime. . .

Oh the stories that are spun
the characters that stride forth
the truth that is revealed
all that I had not been ready to see
but is now in full technicolor

And through the eyes of my soul
I am able to expand my consciousness
to see the bigger picture
free of any judgment
with the purity of heart.

With a deep sigh of release
the stories and emotions are distilled
into the wisdom of the soul
integrated for eternity
with a pure and gentle heart.

And so it is. . .
when we are ready
when we ask and surrender
allowing the soul free reign
the truth is revealed
our consciousness expands
all with the ease and grace
of our GodSelf.

Resting in the Flow of Change

Posted on by

The days of needing
to know it all
or needing to be right
are long gone.

Life is in constant flux
therefore if what I know today
does not change tomorrow
there is no growth or expansion.

I rest in the flow of change
allowing what I knew yesterday
to fade away without judging it
as right or wrong.

And I welcome
that which was unknown yesterday
to be my new playground
each and every day anew.

Memory Loss

Posted on by

Memory loss
can be a two edged sword.

One edge is cutting away
all that is no longer desired
all that no longer resonates
with my expanded consciousness.

The other edge is cutting away
daily routines and mindless habits
along with lifetime friends and family
that have been supporting the old memories.

One we judge as advantageous
the other disruptive
and yet. . .
are they not both of value?

For both force us to be
fully present in the now
where antiquated memory
is no longer running our lives.

So next time my mind blanks out
and I forget what I was doing
I have to ask:
Was it even important?

If not, it will simply
disappear from my life
allowing the space
for something more vital.

And if so, I know
it will cycle back around
and be fully present with me
at exactly the appropriate moment.

Therefore I can be at peace
with the perfect flow of life
knowing this moment
is the only one that matters.

Your Wings Await You

Posted on by

Your wings have always been here
safely tucked behind your heart
along with all your dreams
and all your desires

patiently waiting
until you were ready
to go beyond
all that you have been taught

patiently waiting
until you felt safe enough
in the trusting
of your GodSelf

patiently waiting
until you loved and honored
all of who you are
as a sovereign being.

patiently waiting
until you were bold enough
to leave the old world behind
and take the leap.

Where you shall fly
where you shall land
I can not tell you . . .

for each flight
is new unto itself
just as each moment
is new to itself

just as you
are new unto your self
in each and every moment
once you spread your wings . . .
soaring
dreaming
expanding
enjoying
delighting
in All That Is
All That I Am.

New Revelations

Posted on by

New revelations
of expanded consciousness
are often preceded by feelings
of physical discomfort
bursts of muddled emotion
or mental confusion.

As uncomfortable
as these moments may be
the realization of new disclosures
bubbling up from within
disrupting that which
I’ve always thought to be true
allows me to rejoice in these moments,
amidst all the discomfort.

For what emerges
on the other side of this vexation
is an increased ease and grace
never before experienced
and a joy that ushers in
new venues of reality.
