be a light

Be a light. Don't wait for the light to shine on you; be a light.  Shine. Write. Speak. Sing. Love. Help others. Listen deeply. Express gratitude. Utilize your talents. Be a fountain of joy. Don't worry about what you should get. Focus on giving. You are a light.

Free yourself

When you decide that THIS relationship, THIS career path, and THIS source and level of income will make you happy, you limit yourself. This kind of thinking creates fear. When THIS relationship seems threatened, you fear losing it. When THIS career path seems threatened, you fear losing it. When the money you expect does not arrive, you fear consequences. Your attachments create fear. Is that what you want, a life filled with fear?

Free yourself from attachment to what YOU think you should have and to what YOU think should happen.

You are a Verb.

You are a verb who thinks he is a noun. You are an is who thinks he is an it. You are a spirit who thinks he is a body. You are always in a state of being. You always are.

Memories are snapshots, frozen in time, and revised to fit our beliefs about ourselves.

Surrender

Surrender to Spirit involves no loss, unless you consider giving up fear a loss. Clarify your intent. Let it go. Take action. Expect success.

All answers are there to be had.

When you pray or meditate-- An endless stream of thoughts hardly allows for a response. See that you take a break. Cleanse yourself before prayer and meditation by verbalizing all of your fears and worries. Then see, as the quiet comes, what will be told to you. With a sense of knowing you will press on to engage in your day. Direct all questions within. Be still and quiet. be calm , and know that all answers are there to be had.

What do you want?

What do you want? Get quiet. Let go of everything you think you are supposed to want. Forget about status or the approval of others. Dive deep in your mind and heart. What do you want? Beneath the superficial wants and needs of the world lies what you really want, what your spirit is calling you to. Simply ask and listen.

Who are you?

Who are you? You are not your career. You are not your home. You are not your race, (because race isn't real, only a construct). You are not your gender, but you play a male or a female role. We usually confuse the role(s) we play with who we are. Who are you? The question to ask is: "Who am I?" Most of your discoveries will be along the lines of who you are not. Consider not identifying with the role, but just playing it---parent, manager, employee, male, female, leader, service provider, neighbor, mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter--these are all roles. In prayer or meditation, or contemplation ask: Who am I?
