How we Feel

How we feel
is much more important
than what we do

For our actions
are always influenced
by our feelings

An action based in love
is far more miraculous
than an action based in hostility

An action based in compassion
is far more benevolent
than an action based in judgment

An action based in peace
is far more paramount
than an action based in fear

And action based in gratitude
is far more expansive
than an action based in lack

An action based in joy
is far more inspiring
than an action based in obligation

Go deep
and feel deeply
before choosing
how to take action.

I Am Enough

We eventually
reach a point
where we do not
need to respond
to everyone
or everything

It matters not
what others think of
how we look
what we do
what we say
how we live our lives

Because
we now realize
who we are
as Sovereign Beings
and shining our light
is enough.

Living as an Empath

As an Empath
I have finally come to realize
that all “energy is neutral”

It has only been
my judgement of energy
based on prior indoctrination
which was never mine
that interprets energy
as positive or negative

Once I am no longer
locked into the matrix of
collective consciousness
there is no judgement
fear subsides and
there is only Peace

I now realize as an Empath
I can allow energy to serve me
as a sacred gift of the divine.

Unified Body of Consciousness

As the original
wound of separation
is rising to the surface
mass consciousness
continues to cycle
through its play-back
via extreme polarities

Attempting to mitigate
this rift in consciousness
amidst the flux of duality
only exacerbates it

But by seeking harmony
within ourselves
by allowing all our past experiences
to distill into wisdom
we find the true center within us
as our GodSelf
a unified body of consciousness
as the I AM, Soul, and human

Herein we find peace
with All-That-Is
and Love beyond
our human bounds

Love of self
with all its human foibles
Love and compassion
for all humanity
allows us to rise
sovereign and free
as conscious creators
of a new reality.

Creating with the Divine

I am not a warrior
here to fight the battle
of good vs bad

I am a creator
birthing a new reality
rooted peace and harmony
without laying blame
or guilt upon another

I create with
the purity of the Divine.

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 can I know
what another’s
divine soul path is

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

Another’s reality is not mine
with which to interfere
rather to honor
their own Soul journey

Simply shining my Light
illuminates new potentials
for a more expanded reality
with 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.
