Swimming in the Chaos Just as You wanted to Are you distracted yet? Do you have your eye on the prize? What is your “prize?” What do you intend to create or experience in your life? There are plenty of things to distract us. There are many topics to think about. You could think of all the information that we are exposed to, day in and day out, as a form of chaos. At least when we think about the media, online social and even the spam we get in our emails. Lots of “noise” to keep us distracted. If you think about the instantaneous manifestation of intentions, this is the realm of the alchemist, mystic or savior. Jesus, as we are told, healed folks in the moment. No follow-up appointments. Poof! done. All manner of miracles all done in the moment. Poof! done. The instantaneous fulfillment of desires or…
What Can You Imagine For Yourself? If you don’t believe it you will probably not see it. What do you believe is possible for your life? What? Could you be an … artist? Mountain climber? Welder? Healer? Author? Singer? Midwife? World traveler? Foster parent? Farmer? Cook? Race car driver? Etc. I am not suggesting you do something just to be busy. Or that you “need” to do it. It is always your call. I do think that we tend to settle in to a complacency or “normal” behavior. There are no requirements. You have free will. But then, your soul probably has a few hundred possibilities for your life. Most of which you might not ever consider. We tend to think in a linear fashion. Like a road map and a destination. We will go here, then we will go here, and then we will arrive. Linear thinking for our…
You are the Creator of Your Experience It is all about You There is a bit of disparity between your karma and your consciousness. Not that they are separate in content, but rather, they are separate in their experience. Both your consciousness now, the one reading this sentence, and the consciousness that was pushed into your subconscious creating a karmic propensity, are both made by the same thing, consciousness itself. In other words, your karma is your own consciousness from your past, influencing your present experience of life. What you thought in the past has brought you to this moment. This Now. Likewise, where you will end up in the future, will be decided by how you use your consciousness now. “Whether you think you can, or cannot, you’re right.” ~ Henry Ford There is nothing personal about the effects of karma. Karma itself has no bias or agenda. Karma…
You can’t do anything about it. You were not involved in the creation of you. It’s not like you are off the hook. You are still metaphorically steering your boat. Creating your future. To a point. But the creation of you, and the ongoing existence of you, is out of your hands. You, this awareness that is reading this sentence right now, was not around the day you were born. Likewise, you have been continually evolving yourself. If you were to magically arrange a gathering of “You’s” around a table, they would all have unique aspects of their personalities and personas. So, if you could invite you, from a decade ago, to join you at this imaginary meeting, and invite the You from two decades ago, and so on and so on … each personification of you is using the exact same principles of manifestation to create their version of…
You Decide It All You are the sole creator of your experience OK. So no. You, yourself, can’t put another three or four suns in the sky. OK, so no, you can’t add another dozen planets to the solar system. So no, you don’t decide it all. Not from the collective perspective. But, absolutely, you do decide it all when it comes to how you experience your “reality.” Gravity is impersonal. The mechanics of karma are impersonal. The mechanics of emotions are impersonal. The cycle of day and night are impersonal. Time is impersonal, etc. You, it is you, that decides how you experience these things. There is no built-in experience of “reality.” If there were, we would all experience everything the exact same way. It is truly a blessing that we decide it all. Earlier this year I spent seven weeks in the hospital. Five surgeries. Extreme pain for…
Your Answers are Within You now Karma itself is not personal You are metaphorically standing in front of a mirror. You are the creator of your reflection. You are the creator of your life experience. If you are bumping up against struggle or resistance in your life, your emotions will reflect where you are stuck. In other words, our emotions are created when our beliefs, attitudes and values bump up against “reality.” They are a report card of sorts. Your emotions evolve, or don’t evolve, as you grow or evolve, or don’t grow or evolve yourself. We take on a sense of self as we live our lives. This “sense of self” is set up in our mind/ego. If I ask you “who are you?” it would be your ego that responds. Yet, before your ego existed, you were, and always are, a soul identity as well. When we look…
Nobody’s fault but Mine You create Your experience There is a bit of a lag of sorts. A temporal displacement. At least it can seem that way. In other words, once we have accumulated a lot of pent-up karma in our subconscious, it can seem like we are living in a rigid pattern of life. Our life takes on a seemingly consistent nature to it. And from that, our minds can believe that life is just “that way.” Where our karmic experiences are repeating themselves over and over. To compound that, we can have karma from past lives that anchor a repetitive pattern in ourselves, and thus into our life experiences as well. This can give us a sense of being a “victim” of our experiences. Where our conscious mind can’t connect the dots as to why “bad things” keep happening to us. Perhaps it is the third divorce, where…
Riding the Waves of Consciousness Taking it all in We can all feel it. Change at a massive level. Perhaps some of the most turbulent times in which to live. In our history, as a planet, we haven’t had a global shift of change like we have now. These are unique times compared to our past. After 2020 we all started having a much more global narrative play out. Creating huge waves of change all over the world. How are you doing? Are you navigating your way through the karmic tsunami? Are you playing it safe or are you even fueling the flames of change? We all want heaven. Well, maybe not all of us. Well, maybe not even that many. Heaven, as an intention or destination, isn’t on that many people’s minds. At least that I know of. But making more money, owning the fabulous home or car or…
God has the best tattoos We are not here to be the same You cannot escape your Divinity. Even on your worst day, you are Divine. There is a notion that God wants us all to be “righteous.” To fit in to the Divine template is perhaps the intent of many religious folks. But I suggest God is just fine with “wrongeous” folks as well. (Is that the wrong word?). If God was so insistent on “perfection” God never would have left Heaven. In other words, there would be no duality. All there would be is Unconditional Love, as Unconditional Love is perfection in and of itself. You could call Unconditional Love the fabric of all that is. I mean, if God created everything, and God is Unconditional Love, we are all made from the fabric of Love. What about all the ways that humanity is so cruel to itself?…
You Cannot Exhaust Your Options Consciousness always seeks expansion What are you looking for? Are you good right where you are? Set the cruise control and just sit back? There are no intrinsic requirements. None. You have fierce free agency. But that only has power if you leverage it. Ask yourself this next question. What could my life look like? But ask that question three times. First … ask your ego. Was it easy to answer? Next. Take some time and pause long enough to hear the reply. Ask the same question of your heart. Did the answer come easily? Or did it take a bit to connect with your heart’s desires? Last. Ask your soul the same question. Again. Did the answer come easily? Was it already in your thoughts? You are going to click off years. Years are poised before you now. Years. Unless you bite the dust, you…
Getting through the Storm Riding the waves of change And what a gift all this change is. There is a lot of change going on. A tempest of sorts. The collective subconscious of all of humanity is coming up to the surface. We are seeing our shadow(s). We are seeing sides of humanity that we would have never known about without all this change. Riding the waves of change isn’t always easy. Sometimes we just want to go hide away somewhere where we can just relax. Lucky for you, there is a metaphorical “Garden of Eden” within you now. A place of immense peace and tranquility. It has been there every moment of all of your existence. The day you were born, your Innate Self was there. Your Innate Self is the Self that is always there. Your ego, your personalities, and all of that changes with time. But your…
