Awaiting Conscious Awareness

Posted on by

So much of our lives
has felt bereft
living in anticipation
waiting for something
something compelling
something imminent
something prodigious
something vast

By being in Presence
all of that falls way

Once we realize
our own Divinity
“I desire. . . . ”
easily transforms to
“I AM. . . . ”

And like magic
everything becomes available
awaiting our conscious awareness.

Presence

Posted on by

It’s not your words
that communicate
for they are merely constructs
of the human mind

It is your “Presence”
that engages communication

Without being fully present
words are nothing more than
a game of the mind
with repetitive gibberish

Why waste time on gibberish?
when being fully present
opens hearts and minds
to the fullness and
interconnectedness of life.

Mystery within the Mundane

Posted on by

It is our belief
in the illusion of separation
between the human and divine
that holds our precious dreams at bay

These mystical dreams
have always been here
seeded in the stardust and light codes
flowing through our ancient bloodlines

It is via our relationship
with the simplicity of life
and deep sensual experiences
that we know the ground is sacred

It is within this sacredness
that we discover the mystery
within the mundane
where all our dreams reside.

Sweetness of Life

Posted on by

The delicate scent of roses
a reminder of how sweet and precious
the benevolence of each moment of life is
when we savor the beauty and grace
always present for our enjoyment.

Surface of Life

Posted on by

How often we allow
the demands of society
to rob us of the innate sensuality
that lies deep beneath
the superficial surface of life

Rather than being fully present
with the sweet scent of a rose
succulent juice of a peach
glitter of raindrops
vibrant colors of the sky
radiant warmth of the sun
touch of silk sliding across skin
or an intimate glance of love.

Song of New Earth

Posted on by

New Earth
no longer an illusion
a dream from afar
now fully present
right here where we are

New Earth
abundant with blessings
of all that she brings
enlivening our dreams
with the song she sings

New Earth
in her bountiful glory
created by you and I
has spread her wings
inviting us to fly.

Re-writing the Script

Posted on by

Memories of the past
are streaming by
during our dreamtime
like old movie clips
dissolving into the void

Freeing us to create anew
from the distilled essence
of our divine wisdom
sans the illusory stories
created by the mind

No longer living from
the history of past creations
we are rewriting our life scripts
via infinite creative potentials
in every fresh new moment.

Fully Alive

Posted on by

When consciously present
we are fully engaged
with our Soul

It is our Presence
that activates
the wisdom
the energy
and the passion
of the Soul

It is our simple Presence
that enlivens
all areas of our life

Not the highs
craved by the human self
for they are fleeting
always followed by
another craving
for another high

BEing fully Present
in this moment
is being fully
Alive!

Shapeshifting the Planet

Posted on by

The more you shine your Light
the more ease and grace
will ensue on the planet

THIS is why you
have chosen to be here
in this time and place

Like the caterpillar
that morphs
into the butterfly

It is your Light
that is shapeshifting
everything on the planet.

Your Soul Space

Posted on by

When you allow yourself
to float in the space-in-between
it allows you to easily access both
the formed and the unformed
simply by choice

This is your Soul space
your Wise space
your Safe space
where energy is always
in service to you

Practice BEing here
in every moment
allowing your Soul
to lead the way
until this becomes
your natural way of BEing.
