Unity - Wednesday's Affirmation

"I know that I am one with Life.  I now understand that Life itself is perfect, complete; that there is a Spiritual Presence and a Divine Unity running through everything."

"I see that the Reality within me is the same as the Reality in all people whom I shall ever meet, and that the Reality within them responds to the Reality within me; therefore in our human greeting there is a Divine Unity."

-Ernest Holmes-

Thank You Dr. Martin Luther King!

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Thank you!

Thank you for being innovative, giving, kind, wise, beautiful, strong, confident, LOVING, and God conscious!  I've learned by your actions that it takes courage to be the expression of God,  I've also learned that it's an evolutionary act to think outside of the box.  PEACE is always the answer. 

 Happy Birthday!

Why I lied!

One day recently I spoke to someone about something and told a lie.  Me, lie?  I couldn't believe I lied.  "Why did I lie?" I asked myself repeatedly.  There were no consequences for the lie other than the guilt I felt because it did not affect me or the person I lied to.  It was something very general and fun, but still, it was a lie.

During the course of that same day, I thought about my lie and I knew that this topic would be the first thing I deciphered during dawn meditation.  Well, before I could speak the words, intuitively, the answer came to me like the sun hovering over the Earth.  The answer felt warm and peaceful.  The guilt I carried up until that point dissipated like mist into the air.

I realized that errors are of the physical nature.  What I mean is that GOOD is all that there is.  This GOOD is the reality and not an illusion.  Our errors are illusions that we, humans, create in order to fulfill the need to express something, like a creative idea, that we ultimately surpress because of belief in lack, limitations, doubt, and yes, fear. 

I find more time to do the opposite of what I know I should do.  This lie helped me to understand that I need to do exactly what I need to do or else it will be expressed in other ways, whether I like it or not.  Our souls have a need to be creative, expressive and loving.  These qualities will come through one way or another.

So, if you have experienced something that is resting in your mind as guilt or sadness, close your eyes in stillness and peace and allow your spirit to speak to you.  Your spirit is in partnership with GOOD - GOD!  We are created in the space of GOODNESS and we live in it, daily.  The answers are within.  Go on the journey of self-discovery and stay there to create the true essence of your life. 

You are the Divine Expression of GOOD!  I give thanks for it!

An Harmonious Journey...2011

Well, It's the wonderful year of 2011!  The year of 2011 is just excited to have our presence as 2010.

Even though our evaluation of time is based on a sequence of events, love, peace and joy knows no time.  They are forever flowing and they must flow through you.  You and I are the expression and the resting place of love, peace and joy.  We make the deposits into the world.

The time for us to enjoy our beautiful lives is now.  Animals don't wait until tomorrow or next year to live.  They don't even wait for the rain season.  They live until the rain season returns.  Animals live without wondering about tomorrow.  They live harmoniously through Life.

The trees grow in the spring and hibernate in the winter. They live in harmony.  The ocean flows continuously.  If every human put our hands in the ocean simultaneously, the water still flows.  It will flow around us, through our fingers, around our wrists. 

Our 2011 journey is simply space for us to experience the true essence of who we are, as 2010.  The Divine Presence is space in which we live.  Don't believe me?  Think about actual Space where Earth and all the other planets float.  Beautiful Intelligence we call God, provides us the very space for every living thing.  That same space is in us, through us and a part of us.  We are in partnership with the Divine Beauty.

You are on a journey to experience every facet of life.  What a gift!  I see great things happening for you in this space called Life.  Rest in knowing that "now" is the time for you to feel the expansion within your soul.  "Now" is and always has been our power.  Thank God for it!

Happy New You!

Happy, Happy Holidays

Fly into the new year feeling strong and wise,

and with love and peace.

Wishing you the very best, always!!! 

Happy New Year!

Walk leaving Peace. Abundance. Love.

Invite yourself to feel the gound under your feet for this is where you shall walk toward love and beauty.  Invite yourself to feel the gravel between your toes for this is where you shall take deep breaths in knowing that soft sand is near.

We keep walking because we don't want to sit down and feel the ground for there is no need to roll around on the rigid ground.  We continue to walk because our feet are made for walking; therefore, we can welcome the gravel and rocks.  Our destination is sheer joy, beauty, softness, and peace. 

Just like we know softer ground is coming, we shall know that abundance, peace and joy are near.  We shall keep walking until we see it.  The ground will help us to see with strength and confidence that we are carrying abundance, peace, and joy.

We are so powerful that with faith, we can create the sand under our feet as we walk.  Do you know what faith is?  Yes, it is the realization that all that there is and ever will be is Love!  More importantly, we carry love and we leave it as we walk on the gravel and rocks.  So, we turn gravel into beautiful sand with our footsteps.  So, the next person behind us will walk on soft sand.  Thoughts of love, beauty, peace and encourgement creates beauty for others. 

So, get behind me as I create beautiful soft white sand for you.  You look behind and see the sand you leave, too.  I know you are smiling as I am. 

I'm so grateful!

Let's Be the Village

It takes a village to raise a child. It takes God's love to spread joy to so many children simultaneously. The beauty of spreading love and joy is that it never has to stop.  Good is always flowing.  "We can only give away what we have and we only keep what we can give away."

Through Let's be the Village campaign, Se'Lah at Necessary Room has accepted the gift to love and cherish children by showering them with gifts.  The gifts are wonderful, but the act is Divine!!!  Will you join in?  I thought so...

Peace and Blessings!

Love

I love myself so much

That I can love you so much

That you can love you so much

That you can start loving me.

Random Thoughts - Just strolling along with you...

First, I want to say thank you to Se'Lah and Anyes for hosting such a fabulous and beautiful Random Acts of Kindness for World Kindness Day!  Kindness is everyday, all day, and I'm so grateful these ladies brought it forth in my consciousness.  Thank you ladies!  I will continue to share my Random Acts of Kindness here in Operation You!

This is my second year of graduate school and I've had some ups and downs and all arounds!  But, I must say that I'm grateful for this challenge.

When I decided to go back to school, I didn't ponder on the idea.  Sure, the idea passed me like the wind a few times during my undergraduate years, but I thought,  It's just a fleeing thought. 

I believe it was a Tuesday, and this day, I had been buried in work.  Just like a baby who takes her first breath, the wind pushed through my lungs.  I gasped for air and said, "I'm going back to school," just like that.  I opened an internet browser on my computer, searched for my school, and applied.  I knew I would get accepted.  I knew that money wouldn't be an obstacle even though I didn't have any.  I accepted and it came to pass.  Thank God!

Now that I'm here, I'm glad I didn't take the time to ponder on the idea of attending graduate school or else I may have talked myself out of it.  It's a lot of work, but I know it's all for a purpose, and that purpose is to allow the Divine Presence to express through me.  It's all about lifting others. 

Today in meditation, I received this understanding:  Releasing and letting go years of a trained ego that fed on doubt, worry, lack and limitaiton, and fear allows me to see the complete opposite.  Now, I know what IS and has been since Creation. I must affirm the truth daily so I don't re-visit my old thought patterns.  Love, faith, peace, abundance, and truth allows me to close my eyes and walk toward the light just by knowing it and feeling it.  I'm walking with a smile on my face.  Sheer joy!

Bliss is at your heart.  Please accept it and smile with me.
