Our Innate Gifts

Posted on by

As a young child
I saw what others did not
heard what others could not
felt what others ignored
and knew the reality of life.

But because of their fear
I shut it all away
and lost touch
with the true reality
of my inner world.

In later years I reawakened
to my inner world
and the gifts therein
but I did not share them
for fear of ridicule.

Meanwhile, humanity
was awakening, transitioning
and breaking down the old
while I floated in the space
between the old and the new.

I’m now stepping back into life
into humanity’s awakening
into a world of splendor
where I no longer attain
these childhood gifts.

Instead, I realize
they are part of Who I Am
and always have been
shining and radiant
as the totality of Who I Am.

Our New Way of Being

Posted on by

Today is the Mayan Day out of Time
this is not just a one day event
this is our new way of being
being free of the past and the future
allows us to SEE things
as they really are
in the moment of Now.

In this moment. . .
I am SO grateful, so open, so joyful, so excited
and yet there are tears
for what is being left behind
I don’t choose to hold onto any of it
and yet there is an element of grief
as it all slips away.

As difficult as some of it has been
it has also been a precious part of me
and I know I will never come this way again
so I offer my gratitude to my human self
for having the courage to live fully,
the good and the bad, the light and the darkness,
the laughter and the tears.

I now step fully into All-That-Is
I live as the Love that I Am
I live as the Joy that I Am
I no longer need to work at anything
for I am the flow of Life itself
and if anything feels like work
I shall run as fast as I can
back into the Loving arms
of Who I Know my Self to be.

Judgment is your Wake-up Call

Posted on by

Every thought
every judgment
that pops into your head
is a wake up call
a call of awareness
to the resistance keeping you
from your true knowing

For true knowing
is the pure wisdom
held within your soul
distilled from
all your experiences
free of thought
free of judgment

When you get caught
in your thoughts
in the loop of
ruminating and defending
your beliefs and judgments
you miss the pearls of wisdom
that reside within.

What a loss to spend life
entangled in judgements and beliefs
rather than exploring
the true wisdom
that opens us to the magic
and joy of life.

Step Away

Posted on by

By removing your human distractions
veils are spontaneously retracted
and you are able to see things
as they really are.

These veils have not been placed
by some unseen force
they are your own creation
by your self proclaimed beliefs.

Step away from the old beliefs
step away from the distractions
step away from other people’s judgement
step away from your own judgments.

Step away….
What you will find is the clarity
of your innate Self Knowing
the clarity that has always been here
obscured by your own false perceptions.

Step away. . .
Step away and Know your Self.

Smitten

Posted on by

I awoke
smitten with the Love affair
that’s blossoming with my Self.

Enamored by the Love
that’s always present
ever flowing
never judging.

Infatuated with the Joy
that bubbles up from within
for no reason
other than I exist.

Enchanted by the Magic
that playfully
continues to awaken
new aspects of me.

Besotted with the flow
of everyday life
as I allow it
to have its way with me.

No longer caught up in the old adages
of a human style love affair
addled with requirements
and unrequited expectations.

Back in the arms of the Divine
sweet gentle embraced and content
crazy mad in Love with my Self
smitten in the knowing of Who I Am.

I AM the Chalice

Posted on by

I sat with Mother Mary
and Love flowed through my being
I sat with Yeshua
and forgiveness flooded my heart
I sat with Buddha
and peace was found in the stillness
I sat with Quan Yin
and compassion enveloped me
I sat with the Ancestors
and clarity ensued
I sat with Merlin
and magic sparkled within me
I sat with the Fae
and joy danced around me.

I AM
the Love of Mary
forgiveness of Yeshua
peace of Buddha
compassion of Quan Yin
clarity of my Ancestors
magic of Merlin
and the joy of the Fae.

There is no need
for me to seek for anything
outside of myself
when I remember
I AM the chalice of All-That-Is
and it is in the sharing of Who I AM
that I become a role model for others.

Sweet Gentle Cleansing

Posted on by

Sweet gentle cleansing
as the heart opens more fully
crystalline tear drops
flow down our faces
allowing us
to see Love
in all its forms
to hear Love
whisper in the breeze
to feel Love
in the depth of our being

Allow the tears
for they are
the sweet elixirs of Love.

The Self you’ve yet to Know

Posted on by

There’s more of You
knocking at the door
of your heart
but you can’t hear it
if you’re constantly
dialing in to the old stations
with the speakers of your mind
turned up full blast.

Switch it all off
get still and listen
to the gentle beating of your heart
the rhythm of your breath
the essence of your inner being
and your soul’s calling
all of you Home
to the Self you’ve yet to know.

Drink Deeply of the Elixirs of Life

Posted on by

You are a Star Being with infinite gifts to share
the Universe does not serve a single course meal
for which you have no choice
the Universe serves up feasts of infinite delicacies
and pours sparkling wine from which to imbibe.

You are the Universe
and
You are the guest of honor
take your place
unwrap your gifts
and drink deeply
of the elixirs of Life.

I Am Love

Posted on by

Human love with all its limitations
requires an exchange of love
I give you love
and consequently
I expect your love in return.

Whereas, 
Divine Love is an energy
radiating from within my heart
ever present, ever expanding
without any need for
measurement, exchange, nor possession.

I AM Divine Love
therefore. . .
I have no need to give love
I have no need to receive love
because
I AM already Love.

You are Divine Love
therefore. . .
there is no need to give love
there is no need to receive love
because
You are already Love.

When I know myself as Love
and
You know yourself as Love,
We are free to Love fully
as Sovereign Beings
in Love with All That Is.
