World of Distractions

 

As the world moves through
it’s distractions
you are

a lighthouse amidst the storm
the dreamer when others resign themselves to cynicism
the lover when love has been reduced to a transaction
a listener to what no one else hears

You stand firm in your softness
when the world tells you to harden
You live the fullness of life
where others have settled for emptiness

As the world moves through
it’s distractions
you are the Presence within your Heart.

Transcending our Humanness

 

We’re only human
Where did that erroneous belief come from?

Religious leaders who wanted to control us
by placing God above and beyond us
rather than the truth
that we are all aspects of God

We’re only human
is a poorly overused excuse
filled with self judgments
and perceived limitations

Dear Beloveds,
We are not flawed humans
We are God incarnate
perfect in every way

We are master creators
each of us expressing
our own uniqueness
as creators of our present reality

It’s time to stand tall in our Light
in the realization of our Divinity
to make mindful choices
as conscious Masters of Creation.

Illusion of Glamour

Freedom is seeing beyond
the illusion of glamour
beyond the superficiality
of things outside my self
by going within
becoming clear within my Self
fully aligning with my Soul

It matters not
what others may think
it matters not
what traditions are customary
it matters not
who I may have thought
myself to be up until now

For I am a Sovereign being
unique unto my Self
and it is time for
all of us to celebrate
our uniqueness
and create anew.

Awakening the World

If you could see yourself
through the eyes of strangers
you would see
how brightly you shine

Shining your light
does not require you
to feel perfect
for it is your innate divinity

You are perfect
just the way you are
and your Light
is awakening world.

Sacred Gifts

Memories of our sacred gifts
from multitudes of lifetimes
are seeping through the veils of illusion
awakening our awareness

Asking to be embraced
free of indentured beliefs
free of ancestral entanglements
free of self judgment

Blossoming forth
with new seeds of
expanded consciousness
in the gardens of our hearts.

Becoming

I am not a static being
attempting to
fit into a persona
created by the mind

I AM my own
sovereign domain
of undulating energy
in a constant state of expansion
always Becoming
more of Who I AM.

Music Within Us

Music lives within us
as the orchestration of
of our human experiences
with All That Is

Energy in motion
streaming through us
awakening our hidden
deeply embodied emotions
bringing them all into harmony

Music is the grace
that continues to enliven us
reminding us of our wholeness
and the magnificence of Who We Are.

Bring Me Home

All my life I’ve been searching
wandering here and there
forever reaching out
looking for true love

What I’ve found has been illusive
here and then gone
oh where is the love
I so desperately need?

Then one day in my search
I saw myself in you
and my heart opened wide
revealing the truth

Love’s never been illusive
it’s been here all along
I’ve been searching way to hard
for what’s always been within

So bring me home
where I’m loved
home for evermore
home to live
deep within my heart

Now love abounds in my heart
and nurtures my true self
No limits, no conditions
pure freedom to express

All my dreams rest here
in the window to my soul
Awaiting to be embraced
and brought into the world

Wisdom lies in my heart
simple and profound
It’s all here within me
everything I need

With my heart at the helm
love just clears the way
And life opens to the max
and floods me with joy

In my heart I wanna live
every moment of the day
If I stray, bring me home
Home, back to my heart.

Defining Oneself

The identity
the title
the label
with which you
define yourself
becomes a distraction from
the true grandness
of the totality
of your true Being

As your GodSelf
you are the embodiment
of the I AM
All-That-Is
the Creator
of new and glorious realities
in which to live and play.

Embrace the Unknown

Embrace the
unknown
uncertainty
transitions
transformations
and its consequential chaos

Clarity will ultimately ensue
by releasing the need to know
whereby trusting the unknown
becomes the new Knowing

For within the mystery
of the unknown
you are gaining
your Soul’s clarity
of your own True Self.
