What Do You Expect? What do you expect to happen in your life? When you wake up in the morning … what do you expect … To happen? To change? To have meaning? If I were to ask you … are you going to fulfill the vision of your soul in this lifetime … would you have an answer? Would it have been something that was already on your mind recently? For many of us, one day is very much like the day before. Where our ego starts up with its morning rituals. A habitual pattern of sorts. Where are your days taking you? If you were to take a big step back, and review your life over … say six months or so … are you advancing your life-purpose? Are you taking actions toward bringing your life-purpose into creation? There are no requirements. You do not HAVE to do…

Home for the Holidays The gift of family gatherings… Ding dong … and it begins. Time with our families can be such a joy for some of us, and for others, it can be such a burden. Each family dynamic is different in its own ways. Just like our family traditions. Perhaps you have had an opportunity to visit the family of a friend … and perhaps then you notice a change in your friend’s demeanor … as if when walking into their home, they become someone different. Our family of origin is a great place to do some soul-searching about ourselves. There are a few reasons behind this. One reason would be the idea that our soul consciously chose our specific family in which to incarnate. Our soul chose the specific family dynamic for the opportunities it would present in order to set us up to learn specific karmic…

Our Family of Origin Where DID we come from? Since none of us existed, well, at least as fully “developed egos” the day we were born … where DID we come from? Where did this “you” reading this … come from? Our family of origin, whatever that dynamic might have looked like, created us. Well, not literally, but yes, quite literally. What I mean is that when we were just babies, we were started on an indoctrination program. It started pretty simple. Learning our first words. Experiencing annual celebrations. Birthdays, religious holidays, national holidays. And the real clincher is that was we were taught the values of each and every symbol, event and belief. And those who taught us, were indeed taught by their families of origin too. Like a baton passed along in a relay race, we have this temporal lineage of sorts. And certainly this lifetime has its…

Let Your Ego Go … Where are You coming from? There are several schools of thought as it relates to our egos, and the path of awakening. Some say to extinguish the ego. To dissolve it into nothingness. To be rid of our egos. And then there are others that say the ego has a role. That it is a part of the whole. Certainly the ego can “take charge” of your consciousness. ALL of it. A constant stream of die-alogue Die in the sense of a shutdown of sorts. When the ego consumes every waking moment, there is a death. An end. Or perhaps not even a beginning. Our egos can dominate our consciousness. Leaving no room for our heart and soul to inspire us. There are those that don’t have any input. They don’t create any chance or opportunity for the IN-spiration of their heart and soul to…

Healing self. Creating Self. Living an intentional life. Are you bi-polar? Are there two of You? Often when I write (and I do write often) I type the word self in two different ways. self and Self. self: Your ego. The “little” you. The ego that you have created. Self: Your Soul. The Divine consciousness within you now. The “BIG” You. On this planet, at this time, there is a prime objective of sorts. And that is to heal ourselves. Indeed. Yes. Let’s do just that. To heal ourselves is perhaps the most important thing there is for billions of people. In this context, when I say heal, I mean “to become enlightened.” To heal our karma. To end our personal suffering. And certainly this can directly relate to our bodies as well. The dis-ease of our body is a reflection of the dis-ease within our own consciousness. I think…

In the Flow … Creation comes from the inside … OUT! So, chances are pretty good that you will eventually walk up and down stairs yet again. Not giving it a second thought. Pretty simple … right? Well there was a time that just to walk was a challenge. That gravity had you crawling around. So, chances are that you can create whatever you want. Yet there was a time, perhaps, that you watched the world around you and pretty much ignored the inspiration coming from within you. “Cell phone dis-ease” is a condition where our egos consume our consciousness. Pretty much ALL of it. Or perhaps … social media. Same symptoms. Same effect. Ego overdose. Yet your heart and soul have a vision for your life. Well, actually they have multiple tiers of visions … IF you actually show up to fulfill them. Our heart and soul dangle dreams…

IF You Start Now… You just might scratch the surface Who is driving your life? Who is the one making decisions in your life? Who? Why it is ME … of course? Really? Have you ever had a co-worker that was difficult, only to meet them outside of work and find them to be totally different? OR to catch yourself dreaming of a most incredible life for yourself? Like you just won the lottery? Or what if… You are an infinite consciousness. Without end. Your Soul was the one that chose this life-path BEFORE you were born. And it will do it again before your next incarnation too. Your Soul has an endless, without end, stream of inspiration, handcrafted, just for you. But, and this is a BIG but, IF you cannot fully engage the process of harvesting that inspiration … well then … life will most likely be ……

I can’t get no satisfaction When our ego goes looking for satisfaction When we go looking for satisfaction, we can struggle to keep the feeling sustained. Oftentimes the ego puts the feeling of satisfaction on things or events. Getting married. Or a promotion at work. Or perhaps a new car. Oftentimes, we will postpone the feeling when we are trying to accomplish something. Perhaps graduating from college or winning an Emmy. I am not putting down the pursuit of accomplishments. But rather, on hanging our sense of self on anything outside of us. Everything in our life has a season. Every thing, be it a person, place or thing, is a season of experiences. In truth, the only thing that does not have a season is ourselves. Our own point of presence. Our own consciousness itself. You are an eternal well of consciousness. Your ego does not create the consciousness…

Get Your EGO On Board Who is driving your life? You didn’t have an ego when you were born. Yet, through the desires of their egos is how most people navigate life. Your ego can decide, by not letting go, how your life will go. If your ego dominates ALL of your consciousness… Well, it would be easier to get a freight train through the eye of a needle … than for you to discover who you really are. ;- ) And the universe goes on. Time will wait forever. Although the universe has so much love for you, the love of the universe has no conditions. Do you want to descend into hell? Sure thing. Do you want to (re)connect with the Source Consciousness within you now? Sure thing. You will choose everything that you do. Either consciously choosing it, or subconsciously choosing it. Your ego typically has a…

Wet Cleanup …  Isle 5 Who made this mess anyway? The store paging system crackled yet another request for … wet cleanup … Isle 5. Someone had made a BIG mess. Time to clean it up. … Fresh out of the birthing process… as a newborn baby, just moments old… You open your virgin eyes… You take a look around… and suddenly realize… What the Hell? Who sent me HERE? It can seem as if life is hard. And certainly from the ego’s perspective it can feel that way. There are many humans on this planet who are struggling to find their way through life. But you? You remember. You remember that you are a timeless Soul. Having a human experience. A Soul that cannot die. A Soul that has an infinite field of potential to tap into. A field of “miracles” to the untrained mind. As an immortal Soul,…

Flex Your Creative Muscles Capturing the inspirations of the moment Your body is the vehicle of your Soul. That is to say, your Soul has no physical attributes of its own, at least not until it incarnates into form. Your body is the vehicle of your Soul. Your body is running automatically. Your ego does not have to think about digesting your food, telling your heart to have another beat, or taking your next breath. Just like the breath you are taking right now. It is kind of like a self-driving car. But wait … too late … crash. Our self-living body has a driver too. Well, at least a driver’s seat. Our body can be driven by our Soul, or it can be “taken over” by our ego. Your body did not have an ego driving when you were born. Your Soul was driving your body on day one.…
