Tha Joy of Giving

Seek to share the best of your being with the world. It is through service that we are able to uplift others and recognise the abundance that exists in us.

No one can give something they do not already possess. It is thus that when you share of your joy, laughter, hope and love you begin to see how much more you have in reserve.

What we put out into the world multiplies. If we seek to put love out then that multiplies. If we seek to put thankfulness out then it multiplies too. When we seek to put generosity out then it too multiplies and eventually so much love, kindness and gratefulness will surround us.

So take some time to be kind to someone who needs to smile. Share a laugh with your neighbour. Be gentle with your colleague. It is in doing these things that we discover the abundance of joy within us and it is in this way that we bring joy to the world.

On Inner Wisdom

There is a voice in every heart that implores us to be our greatest selves. It recognises us as the possibilities that exist in our dreams rather than the culmination of past choices we have made.

It insists on guiding us to be what we dream of becoming. It seeks to lead us to joy and fulfilment. It asks us to be the highest version of our greatest vision of ourselves.

In this voice we have a companion, always gently nudging us to be more, be better, be happier.

And it speaks in soft tones and metaphors. It whispers in our dreams and nudges us to look at coincidences. It uses emotions and chance encounters to remind us of what we could be if only we would listen to it.

Seek to hear this voice. And when you have heard it seek to follow it for it is your greatest encouragement and the path to your highest joy and in it's guidance you will certainly find your way to fulfilment.

Freedom in the Moment

The gift of conscious living can only be experienced by being present in the moment.

Consciously coming back to the current and eternal moment of now allows you to be free. There are no ties to the past and the weight and pain that reside in it as the past no longer exists in the present. There is no worry for the future either as it too does not exist as it has not occured and so all that remains is now. Right now.

This moment is a gift wherin all pain and guilt cannot exists because they only exist in a moment that has passed. Similarly fear cannot live as it concerns things that do not exist now. And though they may exist in some future "now" they have not come to pass and so they are not real.

All that is real is right now. And right now freedom exists, peace exists and stillness exists. In this moment you can be peaceful and still and whole if only you would choose it. In this moment your choice is your experience. In this moment you are truly free.

Love Never Leaves

Love surrounds us always. It is in the gentle and the rough. In the brilliance of light and the coolness of shadows.

Love never leaves us and is always waiting to escort us to grace. Love is a confidant, a friend, a lover and a parent.

Love keeps us in it's embrace and when we feel most alone and the woes of this world weigh heavy on us love gently reminds us that we are never alone. For in love there is companionship and that love is always within our hearts.

Looking With Many Eyes

Perspective is a healing gift. To see things from a multitude of angles is an ability that we all have to create strength from pain.

No thing is absolute- all black or all white. Each experience has shades of joy and pain, laughter and sorrow, peace and distress.

Each action has motivations of love and fear and when we can see each component as it truly is our understanding grows. So, we can be compassionate in the face of injury and loving in the face of rage.

It is only by seeing through many eyes that we can be always loving and still for then we can see that life always spirngs from the remnants of death and when all other emotions are stripped bare only love remains.

It's Good to Be (Back)

I took a two week sabbatical from blogging but I'm certainly glad to be back. I hope you enjoy the refreshment and renewal of my writing as much as I have.

With love,
