A time comes in your life when you finally get it...                                           Author unknown

When in the midst of all your fears and insanity you stop dead in your tracks, and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out - ENOUGH!

Enough fighting, crying or struggling to hold on. And, like a child quieting down after a blind tantrum, your sobs begin to subside, you shudder once or twice, you blink back your tears, and through a mantle of wet lashes you begin to look at the world through new eyes. This is your awakening.

You realize that it's time to stop hoping and waiting for something to change or for happiness, safety and security to come galloping over the next horizon. You come to terms with the fact that she is not Cinderella and you are not Prince Charming and that in the real world there aren't always fairy tale endings (or beginnings for that matter), and that any guarantee of "happily ever after" must begin with you; and in the process a sense of serenity is born of acceptance.

You awaken to the fact that you are not perfect and that not everyone will always love, appreciate or approve of who or what you are ... and that's OK. (They are entitled to their own views and opinions.) And you learn the importance of loving and championing yourself; and in the process a sense of newfound confidence is born of self approval.

You stop complaining and blaming other people for the things they did to you (or didn't do for you) and you learn that the only thing you can really count on is the unexpected. You learn that people don't always say what they mean or mean what they say, and that not everyone will always be there for you; and that it's not always about you. So, you learn to stand on your own and to take care of yourself; and in the process a sense of safety and security is born of self-reliance. You stop judging and pointing fingers ... and you begin to accept people as they are and to overlook their shortcomings and human frailties; and in the process a sense of peace and contentment is born of forgiveness.

You realize that much of the way you view yourself and the world around you is as a result of all the messages and opinions that have been ingrained into your psyche. And you begin to sift through all that you've been fed about how you should behave, how you should look, and how much you should weigh; what you should wear and where you should shop, and what you should drive; how and where you should live, and what you should do for a living; who you should sleep with, who you should marry, and what you should expect of a marriage; the importance of having and raising children, or what you owe your parents.

You learn to open up to new worlds and different points of view, and you begin reassessing and redefining who you are and what you really stand for.

You learn the difference between wanting and needing and you begin to discard the doctrines and values you've outgrown, or should never have bought into to begin with; and in the process you learn to go with your instincts.

You learn that it is truly in giving that we receive. And that there is power and glory in creating and contributing; and you stop maneuvering through life merely as a "consumer" looking for your next fix.

You learn that principles such as honesty and integrity are not the outdated ideals of a bygone era, but the mortar that holds together the foundation upon which you must build a life.

You learn that you don't know everything, it's not your job to save the world ... and that you can't teach a pig to sing.

You learn to distinguish between guilt and responsibility, and the importance of setting boundaries, and learning to say NO. You learn that the only cross to bear is the one you choose to carry, and that martyrs get burned at the stake.

Then you learn about love, romantic love and familial love. How to love, how much to give in love, when to stop giving, and when to walk away.

You learn not to project your needs or your feelings onto a relationship. You learn that you will not be more beautiful, more intelligent, more lovable or important because of the man on your arm or the child that bears your name. You learn to look at relationships as they really are and not as you would have them be.

You stop trying to control people, situations and outcomes. You learn that just as people grow and change, so it is with love... and you learn that you don't have the right to demand love on your terms ... just to make you happy.  

You learn that alone does not mean lonely. And you look in the mirror and come to terms with the fact that you will never be a size 5, or 6 feet tall, or a perfect 10, and you stop trying to compete with the image inside your head and agonizing over how you "stack up."

You also stop working so hard at putting your feelings aside, smoothing things over and ignoring your needs. You learn that feelings of entitlement are perfectly OK.... And that it is your right to want things and to ask for the things that you want... and that sometimes it is necessary to make demands.

You come to the realization that you deserve to be treated with love, kindness, sensitivity and respect; and you won't settle for less. You allow only the hands of a lover who cherishes you to glorify you with his/her touch... and in the process you internalize the meaning of self respect.

You learn that your body really is your temple, and you begin to care for it and treat it with respect. You begin eating a balanced diet, drinking more water and taking more time to exercise.

You learn that fatigue diminishes the spirit and can create doubt and fear. So you take more time to rest. And, just as food fuels the body, laughter fuels our soul. So you take more time to laugh and to play.

You learn that for the most part, in life you get what you believe you deserve... and that much of life truly is a self fulfilling prophecy.

You learn that anything worth achieving is worth working for, and that wishing for some-thing to happen is different from working toward making it happen. More importantly, you learn that in order to achieve success you need direction, discipline and perseverance. You also learn that no one can do it all alone and that it's OK to risk asking for help.

You learn that the only thing you must truly fear is the great robber baron of all time, fear itself. You learn to step right into and through your fears because you know that whatever happens you can handle it, and to give in to fear is to give away the right to live life on your terms. And you learn to fight for your life and not to squander it living under a cloud of impending doom.

You learn that life isn't always fair, you don't always get what you think you deserve; and that sometimes bad things happen to unsuspecting good people. On these occasions you learn not to personalize things.

You learn that God isn't punishing you or failing to answer your prayers. It's just life happening. And you learn to deal with evil in its most primal state - the ego. You learn those negative feelings such as anger, envy and resentment must be understood and redirected or they will suffocate the life out of you, and poison the universe that surrounds you.

You learn to admit when you are wrong and to building bridges instead of walls. You learn to be thankful and to take comfort in many of the simple things we take for granted, things that millions of people upon the earth can only dream about -- a full refrigerator, clean running water, a soft warm bed, a long hot shower.

Slowly, you begin to take responsibility for yourself by yourself; and to make yourself a promise to never betray yourself and to never, ever, settle for less than your heart's desire. And you hang a wind chime outside your window so you can listen to the wind. And you make it a point to keep smiling, to keep trusting, and to stay open to every wonderful possibility.

Finally, with courage in your heart and with God by your side you take a stand; you take a deep breath, and you begin to design the life that you want to live as best as you can.

 

 

[Douglas H. Melloy]

There are two states that comprise existence. They are the All Encompassingness of God and infinity, which we think of as the universe. These exist as what precedes the universe, which now surrounds it, and the universe itself. Our life divides between what is specific and what is universal. These are our ego and soul. Part of life involves resolving the ego by letting it go so that God and universe will be what one is being and knowing well enough to share with others.

It is not easy to accomplish and requires doing personal and social work. There is the personal, relational, social, global, and universal. These exist as involvements of consciousness. There is what unifies and what disperses energy. At our level of being they are known as love and fear. Both serve a purpose that requires involvement, addressment, and choosing which to share as purpose. Choice is all that we actually do humanly.

Every moment we choose what we feel, think, and act out. These determine who we are and what we accomplish soulfully. Karma, guilt, and atonement emanate from negatives we share with others. They need to be healed through experiences. Consciousness builds upon itself moment by moment. This is the art of becomingness. One becomes more conscious. Existence is representation of what is felt as guilt, pain, fear etc. or innocence, joy, love etc.

Life is the humanness of within a medium that is infinite upon a planet. This is where we get our act together. Life divides between death or ascension. Fear dies, love ascends. There is no in between. All the work done is resolving fear into love that becomes universal, so that it ascends into the universe as a form of service. People get to choose which path of service is appropriate to them. There is the path of self-service. There is also the path of serving others. One is hierarchical, the other is equality based.

Life can be elitism, superiority, chosenness, good versus evil, or balance, relationship, purpose, and harmony stemming from hierarchy or equality. Within a medium that infinite nothing is greater or lessor to anything else. A grain of sand has as much relevance as a person, planet, or galaxy. 

War, greed, and class distinction are the great failures people choose to act out as their lives. These require being walked away from humanly in the same manner that Buddha walked away from them and became enlightened. Walking away is part of the path. Zoroastor, Buddha, and Jesus all taught one philosophy through continuation of God, life, humanness as the Christ. What follows from this is serving.

Feeling and thinking determine our life that is then acted upon. There is only oneness within infinity. Life becomes problimatical when conflict is the choice one makes between the ego and the soul. Then life becomes drama, sin, suffering, survival, sacrifice, and all things negative.

The mountain top waits for people to stand upon it wherever they are. The ego always seeks for externals, like places to go, people to meet, books, and ritualized fear. Love is spontaneous and only exists here and now as oneness and perfection of us and all that is.

In the moment love and fear both exist, so that we will choose which to be and know well enough to share. Love heals; fear prays. Time and space exist as durated placement because both love and light have become independent of one another that we personify as male and female. Woman is to love what man is to light, yet each is both coupled with biasing.

These require work to resolve the paradox. Love and light are unified at the sixth chakra. Love and light are the only twin flames that exist. The only soul mate I am ever involved with is between my own soul and my body. The soul incarnates and becomes mated to my body. This is the only relationship I actually have demonstrated through everyone I get involved with. There is only one relationship that is infinitely expressed.

Intuition is the voice of wisdom within. Emotions are the voice of understanding. Love understands, whereas light is wisdom. These are the art of appropriateness when lived as the applied. Humanly we become conscious manifestors, healed healers, teacher's teacher, and ascending ascenders as wayshowers, deliverers, and healing-servants.

Meditation, serving others, and aspiring to collectively ascend is the path for people. There is only the connected integration of collective consciousness. Individuality does not exist. It is why the death experience takes place. Death of the body = reincarnation of the soul. There is mind, body, spirit, and soul as they pertain to and involve God, life, humanness, and universe. These make us infinite, eternal, complete, and total as-is.

All we do is become the realness of as a personal truth. 

Inverse reversal is the technique in creating the universe and any life form. It is why there is binary vibrancy. Humanly we are a dualized binary vibrancy. This can be thought of as time/space and space/time. They are two completely differing states of being and knowing.

Have a great day and smile regardless
