When we enter the mystical, the spiritual or contemplative way of life, we take as our model of prayer these passages in Luke: “take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. . . . Your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. . . .It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Having prayed thus, we turn within and realize:

I am not coming to You for anything. I am not
asking for anything, nor am I trying to tell You what
things I have need of. I am coming here only to rest
in the assurance of your presence and grace.

Reveal Yourself to me. Let me feel Your presence.
I have wandered so far away from your house. I have
been away from You so long in thought.
Let me return and find my home in You.

I will be satisfied with Your grace. I will be
satisfied with Your will for me. I will be satisfied with
Your plan. You know my need, and it is Your good
pleasure to give me the kingdom. And now, I have
said enough. Speak, Lord, it is Your turn.
Your servant is listening.

Then we open the ear for only a minute or two. That is all that is necessary, and we pay no attention at all to the fact that we may not hear or feel anything. That makes no difference. After a minute or two or three, we get up and go about our work. If there is any need for us to hear anything or to be instructed or led, it will take place at the time when it is necessary. There is no such thing even as telling God when we want Him to talk to us. We merely tune in, and then rest assured that when the time comes for receiving guidance, it will be there.

If we practice this king of meditation, three, four, or five times a day, eventually we will have opened a circuit within ourselves, a place of contact.

If you have to compromise what you believe in, what you want from your life or what you feel is right to please another then you are settling for a 'half-life'. Embrace all of you and rest in the knowledge that your growth, and not giving in to the status quo, is paramount to your Earth-plane existence. ~ Creator
 
 
 
 
I hope you are enjoying a beautiful Sunday. It feels like the craziness of the past week has lifted and the sweet breeze of goodness and light is all around. After a long time of feeling a sense of stillness, I'm filled with inspiration, ideas and projects I want to do. Wishing you a most beautiful day filled with love and light. ♥
 
 
 
 
Sometimes we all feel like we can't really make a difference...that the forces of fear prevail no matter what we do. But a new pattern of possibility is rising up, and anything that any of us do to foster love will add to the speed by which it emerges among us.
 
 
For today...be happy with where you are. Make peace with where you are. Allow, accept and bless right where you are. Release the need to change it, fix it, make it go away. Welcome in right where you are. Love it.

I am not interested in enlightenment if it means
detachment from the emotional body, the earth
plane, the challenges of being human. I am interested
in enrealment, because it means that my most
spiritual moments are inclusive, arising right in the
heart of all that is human: joy and sorrow, shopping
list and unity consciousness, fresh mangos and stale
bread. Enrealment is about living in all aspects of
reality simultaneously rather than only those realms
that feel the most comfortable. We are not just the
light, or the mind, or the emptiness, or perpetual
positivity. We are the everything. It’s ALL God, even
the dust that falls off my awakening heart.
 
 
 
 
It is not your job to solve all of the issues and problems of the world; but to keep your own world as clear, happy and loving as possible. This is no small thing however, as it has a positive effect upon all other sentient beings, and further opens the space for others to "unplug" from the illusion and discover the truth of their own being. Shanti. - The Keepers, 4.20.13

"Sunlight on your face and on your skin is vital. Sunlight and water are all of you. They are not these things that can be marketed via a beach holiday or sold to you in a plastic bottle. These are you, sunlight and water. You are composed of both. They are important. They are your friends. This is why the water supplies must be decontaminated and you must also each spend time in light, for if you spend too much in the dark, your systems become depressed because you forget you are a vibrant, alive human being. You forget the life that the sun activates inside your body." ~~ The Z's from Health in the Golden Age Interview
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I am a wild woman
I know, inspite of myself
and in spite of what I've been told
that there's beauty in every age
no matter how old

I am a wild woman
I've learned what it means to be a life bearer
to bear children
to create art
to plant seeds of love

I am a wild woman
from the depths of the dirt underneath my fingernails
to the height of my very soul
I am one with the Earth
the winds from the four directions whisper through my skin

I am a wild woman
and the spirit of every wild woman coalesces in me
for we are each wild women
and we are all the spirit of the wild woman
I will follow the voice in my heart

I am a wild woman
I sing from my heart
I dance with the stars
I howl at the moon
I love uncontrollably

I am a wild woman
from the deepest, darkest, most sacred part of me
I am fearless
I cry in strength
I open my arms to the sky and welcome the rain

I am a wild woman
I nurture, love and protect
I stand, strongly, silently, sweetly for my brothers
I walk dutifully, prayerfully, joyfully upon the mother
and I will not be stopped

I am a wild woman.

I AM A WILD WOMAN (by Melissa Clary)
 
 
 
"I find that one of the best things I can remind myself of in any moment that really softens everything and makes it all more useful is :: This is the best thing that could be happening right now. All of this is just as it is.

Either consciously or subconsciously, we can get hung up on analyzing what is wrong about right now. We can wonder about what we should not have done, how we screwed up, or how others did. We feel as if we are doomed and we prepare for it to soften the blow.

What if all this was just right, instead? Useful? Valuable? Workable? Lovable? What if this moment was the doorway into what you want right now instead of the inevitable crushing blow of permanent failure? Even if it looks really gross, or painful, or not at all what you thought you wanted? Decide it. Say to yourself right now, just for kicks, 'This is for me, I can use this. This is the best thing that could be happening.'

When you decide that, it changes everything. Steps show up in front of you where there were walls before. You take pathways you never would have dreamed of. Decide that this, even THIS, is for you. Respond accordingly. See what happens."

Dear Ones! Due to such intense energy I AM sleeping abnormally a lot for the past 2 days. And the number of my dreams has increased. We all need a lot of rest right now, and that is why listening to our body is so important. I AM going to spend a day in Nature today, being alone and feeling my inner Spirit. This is a very important part of our Ascension path ... to keep the balance between our inner and outer Divine feminine and masculine.
 
 
 
 
For today, enjoy the moment. Ask your human ego mind to assist you in this. Ask it to reserve comment and judgement, worry and criticism; but rather to observe and look for the joy, love, and wonder in Now.

The parents

Your Type Four EnneaThought for January 13th— Reflect on your childhood today. As a child, did you believe you were not like your parents? Did you feel that you were not "seen" by your parents and that you did not connect sufficiently with your parents? As an adult, what does this have to do with you now? (The Wisdom of the Enneagram, 182) As I've said myriad times before, these things just slap me in the face with a wet fish most days. I suppose it makes sense that I should send Reiki healing to my relationships with my father and my mother. Haven't really done that for ages. It's too hard sometimes, I choose to ignore and avoid dealing with them mainly because these are the two people I've been connected with since birth. A lot of effort is required in order to 'let things slide'. Living with my dad is hell, and I'm co-creating it on purpose, as part of my desire to annoy, to hurt him the way he hurts me. My mum, well, I guess we'...

Je dois écrire

Je dois écrire . L'ironie est que quand j'avais le temps, je na'i pu pas fair rien . Doesn't matter, I have to write. I keep listening to poets like Keane and Travis and Darren Hayes and I'm here, with the creativity finally bursting forth again, and what's more, the joie de vivre bursting through and I'm not writing and I'm not taking pictures and I'm doing bloody cashier work at Oxfam. I am a swan, I am a seagull that glides and glides. I am the tree, the squirrel. Words are all I have to make myself different from you lot. To make myself lighter, somewhat more worthy. How low is my self esteem that I still believe those falsehoods. I just cannot find people on my wave length. It means I never shall. Or I do and because of my skin colour or because I am behind the Oxfam counter, or because I am in Morden, or London, or the UK, I shall never know. An opera singer. A person who wants to wear kurtis but is scared of going into a desi shop i...

Judgement

Tarot Card Interpretation & Meaning - (20) Judgment Introduction: Judgment can be a card about jumping to conclusions, decisions and judgments. which are too hastily made. If you are prone to such things, this is a clear signal to slow down and give things more thought and to give people "more chances." This can be a real time of spiritual awakening.           General: In general, if you are the one tending to jump to conclusions, you can put a stop to it. If others are making these kinds of decisions about you or about someone you care for, there is really very little you can do, apart from realizing that it's their problem, not yours. Health: This is an important time to let go of the past and any wrongs that you perceive were done to you, particularly if you are dealing with chronic medical issues. Letting go of your need to be right will go a long way toward helping you to feel better. Besides, if ...
