Y4 – Day 316 – Rewarded

Happy Birthday to M, my son!

I am rewarded at every turn by the awareness of blessings in my life.

With all that I do, I visualize and do it with my Goddess, whom is the innate Goodness that resides in me. This is my version of higher power. I feed the goodness in me. I rely on the goodness in me and I am the goodness in me when I am my best, highest version of myself.

I am one and the same. My power is infinite. Yet, I must push the button and have no fear. Possibilities are endless because time has no ending.

This is the Goddess remembered, unearthed and activated, unleashed upon Earth.

Y4 – Day 310 – Eyes of Compassion

Have the eyes of compassion when you see people spinning, defending and arguing over what you believe to be untrue, unloving or unkind. They are suffering.

Wisdom, great ideas, inventions, music, art and spiritual awakenings come from distress, grief and pain. As the ego is squeezed out, resilience, endurance and creative expression erupts. After a shock, the innocents, the healers, the believers and the protesters build a web of solidarity.

Renewed hope, the light of love as a torch and doing the right thing for all of humanity wins out in the end.Though it may look like it hasn’t.

Remember Love, you know, that home inside of you. Let Love live in you. Every single person is Love, sometimes they are just in denial, but it is there. It is behind the wound, the scab they don’t dare scratch. By forming a safe, loving circle, we can heal each other.

If the entire planet blew up right now, the spark of Love would still exist in the form of a cypher. The evolution of Consciousness is alive and well.

 

Y4 – Day 289 – Women Lead Us Out of the Cave

I wanted to be a rebel rouser all my life and at last I can be if I grab the last of my hidden, submerged power not repress it. It is revitalizing the juices !!

A new women’s revolution is taking place. I want to be a part of it. Men are included.

Have you seen the new National Geographic? It is about gender.

There is a human transformation taking place and women (of course) are leading the way. We have been great organizers, delegators, team players and life supporters since the beginning of time.

Not only do we ache to be heard, we must move forward not backward in our expanding awareness both internally and externally.

The political atmosphere is a call to action and it has created a tidal wave of women surging forth. I am not hysterical – I am enthusiastic. I don’t snoop – I investigate. I am not a bitch – I am assertive. These are just 3 examples of how SYNTAX or labels have kept us down. Or so they thought.

“The times they are a-changing” as Bob Dylan once wrote. But we need even more.

Y4 – Day 288 – Secret Beliefs

Maybe ignorance IS bliss because being with, or around, someone who is in constant mind blowing expansion must be intimidating.

I believe love rules. But I also believe it takes a lot of good people to make or cause change all though we only need one bad apple to spoil the bunch.

I sense we express our souls through any creative means we can get our hands on, since time began. I visualize cave drawings, goddess sculptures chipped away by crude tools, coarse baskets weaved with ancient, extinct plants, and rudimentary bowls to gather supposed seeds, nuts and small fruits like berries. It is all art.

I am of the persuasion there is divine guidance, and that personally, I have been graced with miracles over and over.

 

 

 

Y4 – Day 282 – Dots

It’s the dots. Every interconnected incident in my life has taught me that I just need to connect the dots. I could totally ignore the dots and complain all day long, “Woe is me”. But I loved and still love to connect the dots. It is irresistible. And, when I connect the dots, I see finer, I hear clearer and I understand better.

The Universe, the angels, the Goddess are talking to me. They show me several paths, they guide me with hints along the way like crumbs for Hansel, only they are dots.

I have choices now. Depending on how alert I am to the dot connection, how willing I am to draw the line from one to two to three dots and form a picture, is how I decide to choose how I live.

If one scenario doesn’t work out, you can change your mind again. Not too much is etched in stone yet we make it seem as it is, stomping our feet if our first option doesn’t pan out. And, consider it’s not supposed to work out because a much more desirable outcome awaits you. Or, what you gain by the experience is well worth it because it will bring you to a new place of comprehension.

Yet, the cause and effect of our choices ripples out to others, like the scientific conclusion that butterfly wings fluttering in the Amazon affect the wind system. If our choices have consequences that affect others, then it is wise to choose them with discernment.

Y4 – Day 281 – Observations from the Streambed

I step lightly and barefoot along the pebbles of the river stream. With glee I watch, listen and touch the gemstones glistening, wet and wild, every color of the rainbow. I also notice the trials, tribulations, the jagged edges of rocks. I pay attention to slippery, mossy, tricky stones. I am wary of the currents. I look out for wild animals. I try to avoid being bitten by mosquitos, snakes and venomous creatures if possible. The cool, clean and clear freshwater flows and laps on my toes as I dip them in. The water washes and swirls around my ankles.

I am alert to the power of water. I can’t just be admiring the smoothness, the colors and the perching arch of rocky promontories. Boulders are stacked and scattered and I need to be conscious of sharp protrusions where I can be cut, where I may fall.

I cannot just revel in the beauty of the entire scene around me, underfoot, behind me, above me. I am cautious, I consider my choices of where to step, each footprint forward. I keep a keen eagle eye for any and all discrepancies or danger.

That is the balance in nature. Nothing is all good, nor all bad.

There are pearls and jewels laid out for us. Do we pick them up and carry their beauty with us? Or do we walk right on by? Do we even see them? Or are we stepping on them, crushing opportunities?

We are given our six senses for a reason. I want to see these things. Yet, I have the free will to ignore it all.

I choose to own my will power, I choose to align it with nature, Goddess and the flow. I opt to move as effortlessly as possible through my life in peace. 

Y4 – Day 280 – Mining for Gold

Have you ever had to stop all communication with someone just to give yourself a break from the drama? Do you just need time so you can boil, ruminate and see yourself as victim for a while?

That works for a little bit.

I realize I don’t want to be a victim anymore. I truly want to be the Mistress of my fate, not that Goddess or the Universe isn’t there laying out mines, gifts and treasures for me but I need to recognize them as such. It is I who must choose. I no longer elect to be a victim, survivor or heroine. My power rests in the flow of my Goddess.

 

Y4 – Day 278 – Soul Talks

Cindi, our dog, has convinced me that souls do talk to each other and/or destinies are pre-determined.

At the very least, there are signals laid out for us if we observe with care.

Gifts and options are spread before us along the way.

We have free will and can choose to recognize and explore them or we can close up our hearts, ignoring our power and discarding opportunities that could have been beneficial to us.

 

Y4 – Day 277 – Death

I read somewhere that the artist who doesn’t ponder death much is probably not much of one. I understand. Once you go there, your creations get richer, deeper. If you avoid it, it will still come.

The ego does not want to be forgotten. If you read, you know a writer can entice you into their world, their time and space. If you appreciate music, you know a composer can tear your heart open, send you back in memory and land you back safely with the last note. If you love art, most of what you stare at is speaking to you from a gone dimension.

I believe we are all creative. I believe we all want to be remembered. I know I want to express myself so I will leave some sort of legacy, as well as share my soul. One human form reaching out from the crypt to another, alive and in the future.

 

Y4 – Day 276 – What do You Know about You?

I know I am wonderful, bright, a teacher and a giver.

I know the best of me is a dreamer, has an artistic bent and nourishes others.

When I do not inspire myself or others by not being me, it is a sad day indeed for you and for me.

I give counsel from sharing my own experience. I guide others with a torch to light deeply inside the crevices.

I teach others to think outside the box. I can teach anything I am given to instruct by breaking it down into small, simple steps. That’s my gift.

When I don’t specialize in excelling, everyone loses.

Who are we? There is a radical relevance to our owning our power and making connections. It serves us well. It serves others. It honors my Goddess, in me and in you.

The art of the web is an earthling construct but an innately natural design.

The essence of my being wants to reach you with words, nurse you with spoken or written caresses and give back to my fellow travelers, using symbols we agree on, beyond, below and through a feeling we are all initially born with.

So who are you? What do you know deep down about you?

Give me the best of you. Show me your gifts.
