All is Well

I Am the creator
of my own reality

It is not up to me to create
anyone else’s reality

For how could I?
How can I know
what another’s
divine soul path is

How can I know
what experiences
they are calling in
for themselves

My attempts to
change their lives
only interferes with
their own soul path

It is not up to me
to interfere in what is not mine
rather to honor each person
and their own unique journey

By consciously
shining my innate light
via my love and compassion
I illuminate a new way of being

Thus everyone in the world
has the opportunity to vision
a more expanded reality
in the knowing that All Is Well.

Dispassionate Observer

Take a step back
kick up your feet
take a deep breathe
and allow yourself
to be the dispassionate observer
while humanity plays itself out
as the closing curtain drops
on the final dramas of duality.

Unless, you choose to be
one of the players on the stage
and if so, allow your heart
to lead the way.

Rhythm of Life

Ebb and Flow . .
Ebb and Flow . . .
the simple rhythm of life

Isn’t it time
we learn to flow
with the ease and grace of it
rather than attempting to control the tides.

Emotional State of Being

Your physical body
is always
responding
to your
emotional
state of being.

When your cell receptors
are occupied by
love,
peace
and joy,
there is no place
for fear or anxiety
to attach itself.

The easiest way
to walk the path
of fearlessness
is by occupying
those cell receptors
with the truth of
who you are.

For your GodSelf
only knows
love,
peace
and joy.

Effortless Release

When the energies
of the world around me
are doing loony cartwheels
and jackknifing off
in crazy directions

I slowly inhale
a long deep breath
fully expanding my chest
then allow the exhale
to effortlessly release
all accumulated angst

With my next deep breath
my consciousness settles
into the loving bosom
of my Inner BEing
and Peace prevails.

Spiritual Quest

At some point we realize
all spiritual teachings
are speaking to the mind
the human mind
that is constantly
seeking self validation.

When it fails to find it
in the outer world
it thinks it can find it in spirituality,
but life is in constant flux
thus the answers and the questions
are ever changing and evolving.

The human mind
has no concept of spirituality.

For spirituality
can only be experienced
as the purity of consciousness
where all the answers lie
in the wisdom of the moment
each moment with its own wisdom.

Therefore the spiritual quest
comes to naught
until finally battle weary
we set ourselves free of the quest
and lay down the gauntlet
of spirituality

By realizing . . .
in the ever flowing
change of life
the questions change
the answers change
and we evolve

What is eternal
is the purity of Wisdom
effortlessly gleaned
from within our Divinity
ever present
in each and every moment.

Herein we find ourselves
at Peace.

Serenity

Savor the serenity
of quietude
peace
emptiness
and contentment
after shedding
eons of busyness
and mind chatter

Allow this to be
your new foundation
from which to
create Anew.

Moment of Awakening

Feeling a deep
profound
sense of peace
as the past
draws to a close

A bottomless exhale
followed by
a sweet gentle inhale
with the essence
of new beginnings

Infinite potentials
dance before my eyes
with joyous rapture
of a life beyond
human imagination

As my Soul
revels in the newness
of every moment
of awakening.

Relax into Peace

We run hither and thither
looking for peace
we rearrange our lives
we seek spirituality
we hide from the world
all in search of peace

But peace
is always present
deep within
the core of our heart
unable to be dislodged
awaiting our awareness

Take a moment
take a deep breath
and relax into peace
allowing everything
to settle into
its own perfection.

gratitude to the artist: The Angel of Annunciation, 1653 – Carlo Dolci

Savoring Sweet Contentment

I awoke from
a dreamless sleep
cushioned on
a cloud of peace
in the silence
in the stillness
of sweet contentment

When the mind
began to search
for something more
I heard my Soul whisper . . .

Relax dear mind
simply relax
and savor this
sweet contentment

How is it that you
do not consider
this enough?

How is it that you
continually create
all the folderol
in a constant search
for the peace
and sweet contentment
that is always present
within the stillness
of this moment?

For it is from within
this sweet contentment
that you realize
your Self
as more than enough
and new potentials
effortlessly
reveal themselves
with ease and grace.
