Stepping into the Unknown

When everything has been jarred loose
and life no longer makes sense
‘tis because the life
to which you have been clinging
no longer serves you

You feel adrift as your mind flounders
going from one piece to the other
trying to put the old pieces together
a new whole new way
but they no longer fit

Alas,
the mind finally surrenders to the fatigue
allowing the old pieces to drift away
on the current that jarred them loose

When your mind finally stirs
the landscape it once knew
has been transformed
into a barren wasteland

And yet…
your Soul knows something better awaits . . .

In this moment a new doorway appears
the light from within beckons you
a doorway you were unable to see
while obscured by the old landscape

Your Soul gently takes your hand
and begins walking
toward the unknown
one step at a time

Your mind wants to back track
but your Soul gently urges you forward

With a deep breath
of trepidation
you step through the doorway
into the unknown

With your next breath
everything your heart has always known
everything you’ve been yearning for
is instantaneously revealed

Once you step through
the doorway of the Soul
you realize….
there is nothing but Love.

The Spark of Wonderment

My Soul gleefully thrives
on the ever expanding unknown
always guiding me
to experiences
that feed and nurture my growth
providing all I need
protecting me from harm.

When I fully trust my Soul
a spark of Wonderment
is all it takes
to free my mind
expand my Consciousness
and playfully create
an abundance of new Realities.

Restlessness

RESTLESSNESS

When restlessness niggles
at the edges of my awareness
relentlessly vying for my attention
I have learned
there is no peace of mind
until I acknowledge it
and open my self
to fully embrace
the discomfort.

I am reminded
that I always feel restless
before the boundaries
of my awareness
burst wide open
to carry me into
a higher vibration
and an ever more
expanded consciousness.

So my beloved restless niggles
I embrace you
with a smile of knowing
that enlightenment awaits
and there is more of me
to be realized.

My Inner Being

My Inner Being
is always
present,
always
in the here
and now.

My Inner Being
patiently
awaits my attention
waiting for me
to begin
the conversation.

My Inner Being
is fully conscious,
sees all,
hears all,
knows all,
IS all.

When I refocus
my attention
to the here and now,
I expand
into my
Inner Being.

Then I too can
see all
hear all
know all
for
I am
my Inner Being
and
I AM
All That Is.

Free to BE

Smiling sweetly
breathing deeply
resting luxuriously
allowing
divinely orchestrated
transitions
to fully sync
with my physicality
free of resistance
free of the mind
free of entanglements
free of bounds
free to BE
All That I Am.

The Voice Within

The voice within me
whispers
from my heart
from my soul
from my cells
louder than
that which is
outside me.

How is it
I’ve allowed
the outer world
to guide my path
for so many years
when it is my inner voice
that carries the essence
and the wisdom
of Who I AM.

How is it
we think
that which
is outside us
rules our lives
when the voice within
has endured
since the beginning of time
and the outer world
continues to collapse upon itself.

How grateful I am
to the voice within
that whispers
from my heart
from my soul
from my cells
and I have
learned
to listen.

Joy is Who I Am

Joy is my natural state of being,
happiness and contentment
barometers of well-being
indicators that I’m aligned
with my true Self.

When my Joy is disrupted,
‘tis a calling forth of expansion
an expansion of my heart
to re-align
with my GodSelf.

I can change
the people, places, or activities
but to no avail
until I open my heart
to more Love.

Joy is Who I Am
in alignment
with my GodSelf
when I’m living my Joy
the world is a glorious place to live.
‘Tis that simple.

The Greatness of Who You Are

The Greatness
of Who You Are
is unfolding
with sheer deLight.

The Greatness
of Who you are BeComing
needs more space
in which to expand.

This is why you have been
clearing…clearing….clearing.
It is not that you have
done anything wrong.

It is because you
have done everything SO right
that your Greatness
is celebrating its expansion.

So BeLoved One. . .
toss that which no longer fits the old you
because the New YOU
is unfolding with Shimmering new Light.

Elixirs of Divine Love

As you close your eyes
at the end of the day
take a deep breath
allowing the elixirs of Divine Love
to wash over you
through you
clearing your thoughts
easing your resistance
healing your body.

Before you open your eyes
in the morning
take a deep breath
allowing the elixirs of Divine Love
to fill you
overflowing
permeating every cell
of your body and mind
to initiate perfect well-being.

Whenever anything
or anyone triggers
your resistance
take a deep breath
allowing the elixirs of Divine Love
to dissolve the discord and
expand your consciousness
to the perfection
of All That Is.

The essence of Life
has never eluded us
the essence of Life
is ever flowing as Divine Love
drink of it
with your breath
your heart and your mind.
Drink freely and live
the infinite fullness of Life.
