Using feelings not fear

Fear is not real.(meditate on it)   Although, now I can appreciate where it came from. I feel like fear was good intentions gone astray. It was supposed to be a tool to try to encourage people to behave well.  The fear associated with the idea of Karma or the devil is intended to coax you into being a good person in life but what I’ve come to find is not to use that method as the driving force to whether I will try to be a good person or not.

I strive to be a good person because I want to be as close with God as possible; being close to God brings awesome things into my life experience! I am a believer that your Emotional Guidance System (your feelings) let you know how close or far away you are so I always strive to reach for higher vibrating feelings and when you have those feelings you can’t help but to be flooded with Love, Peace, Joy, Compassion, Forgiveness, Non-Judgment and all the spectacular things that are God. 😀

I’m so thankful for that now being the thing that drives me opposed to fear. It makes life significantly less stressful 🙂

The More….The Less….

When(or if) you finally connect to the greater human consciousness…

Honestly that’s just the thing about it.  There aren’t even any words to describe it.  If you’ve ever heard the Bible verse “I once was lost but now I’m found, was blind but now I see” that’s what it’s like. Even that doesn’t do it 100% justice because there are levels to the key words lost, found and sight.  There is the literal, figurative and spiritual definition of all of them.

Coming back to my point, when you connect to the greater consciousness you are able to grasp at a very deep level every single human being throughout history who has connected with that same consciousness.  You are able to connect with the ideas of people through books, TV, Movies, Videos(good ol YouTube) Music, Dance and any other way people have ever used to express themselves.  It’s really quite beautiful.

In this connection to mass consciousness you become less you. I have found the more I turn into that connection and my development of my relationship with God the less I think of only myself and it’s an amazing  experience. I am in service to humanity.  I love connections, I love nurturing and helping develop the consciousness of my fellow man.  My little light shines. 🙂 I have always done it on a one to one scale, I makes sincere connections with people because of that.

The idea to start this blog was put on my heart a little while back. The thought of it scared the crap out of me because I did not want to expose myself to being judged and ridiculed by people who do not understand what it is that I am doing it for.   It was my equivalent to walking outside naked and then having someone put it online but not just it goes locally, that it goes viral. (We all know who grumpy cat is or how to do the SoldierBoy Superman for that very reason!!)  That is on a much larger scale than me just rambling to my friends and family or even speaking to someone randomly that I meet in the street!!!!

I practice meditation daily and since this was a point of high emotion I brought it to my meditation. I asked for clarity on what it is I should be doing and how to go about it and two things happened….I REALLY understood the concept that God never gives us more than we can handle . They wouldn’t put on my heart to do this task if I could not do it. Plain and simple.  The second thing was fear is not real!!!!! (That phrase often causes me to say it multiple times in a semi screaming voice lol. It is such a shocking, yet simple truth)  one of the lessons in A Course in Miracles is “A meaningless world engenders fear because I think I am in competition with God.”   Fear is based on not trusting God. It is impossible to simultaneously know that they will catch you if you step out on faith and they will let you fall if you step out on faith at the same time. So….I picked my side.  I stepped out. So far, it’s working out for me. 🙂  Any help no matter how small I can offer to anyone for their personal growth and development gives me purpose so thank you for even taking the time to read my thoughts. I greatly appreciate it. 

I met a guy on the train one day and we got into a really deep conversation about consciousness and spirituality.  In that conversation I told him we are all here (on the train) by design, it’s not a coincidences that this specific grouping of people are on this train with us right now. To that he said  something like well what makes me so special for all of these people to be here for me, isn’t that arrogant?  He was looking at it from the view that  if you think that way you believe the world revolves around you. I explained to him from my perspective it was more about me determining not only what it is I am supposed to be getting from this moment but also what I am supposed to be giving to this moment. And so I simply said because we are all here together I wish everyone on this train love and peace.  Yes I realize how much of a hippie that makes me sound like but I believe people who are classified as “hippies” got it right!!! (by right I mean right for me)

For me the thought of tuning out, putting in my headphones and not thinking of all the other people on the train who were specifically put here for a reason would be selfish of me. I have to stay present and aware and offer myself to the world however I am able (The side note being you can only offer yourself to your capacity.  You cannot fill another person’s cup if yours is empty so only give what you have to give, never more, and you will find this type of giving fills your cup not depletes it 🙂

You begin to feel that you can’t keep your gifts to yourself, whatever they may be. Give the world what you have to been given and you’ll always end up getting more out of it than you put in. As such, I decided I am of service to humanity.  I will surrender and give myself without fear and all will be well.

Peace and Love ❤

For the conscious/spiritual developing bookworm :D

I love to read!!!! For me, reading expands and grows me, it validates things I may second guess in my own thoughts and it’s just overall something I have enjoyed since I was a child 🙂

If reading is your thing I’d highly recommend the following books:

Although I already mentioned it Ask and It Is Given by Abraham-Hicks (Jerry and Esther Hicks) literally busted my mind open. It started me on this amazing journey that is getting to know myself and God first hand

A Course in Miracles by The Foundation for Inner Peace.  I’m still working through this one.  I’ve found that in my specific path I don’t feel the need to read it cover to cover, I do however enjoy the lessons it teaches (you are supposed to study one lesson each day) and the teaching manual

The Finding of the Third Eye by Vera Stanley Adler.  This I found amazing because it was originally published in 1938 but is very much so applicable and relevant to today. As a result of reading this book I was skyrocketed in a million different directions!! It lead me to read The Egyptian Book of the Dead as well as The Tibetian Book of the DeadThe Teachings of Ptahhotep, The twelve labours of Hercules. and a very insightful article on Pelmanism which all helped in my expansion 🙂

The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz.  Another book that gave me growth and made me just that much better.  The subtitle of the book is “A practical guide to personal freedom” It’s not lying lol

Astral Projection and the Nature of Reality by John Magnus.  This one all I can really say is once you begin to really expand you may find you want to get your feet wet in all the cool abilities of your mind.  It’s a book about out of body experiences, learning how to have them and what to do when you do.

A Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. This I read with one of my best friends because we have a “book club” it came at the perfect time for me and I was able to take just what  I needed at that moment.

The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield.  I am definitely enjoying this read.  Although technically it’s a fictional story it doesn’t take away from the very real spiritual/consciousness development stages.

As for the following books, they may on the surface seem to be only for entertainment at which point you may discard the value they may have on one’s spiritual development but one thing I have learned is insight can be found in all things and all people. In The Teachings of Ptahhotep, he states “Good speech is more hidden than greenstone (emeralds), yet it may be found among maids at the grindstones.” What I took from that was never discount someone’s ability to impart valuable wisdom to you based on their appearance or standings.  God moves and speaks through all of us which includes those we categorize as people who create things on a superficial level (i.e. for entertainment purposes)

THe Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay by Susanne Collins

Divergent , Insurgent and Allegiant by Veronia Roth

Allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll of the Harry Potter Books!!!! Those books are about Love!!!!! It’s really beautiful when you are able to actually see it 🙂

http://www.spiritscienceandmetaphysics.com/35-must-read-spiritual-books-youve-never-heard-of/

and when you’re tired of reading there’s always writing your own books!!! I’d totally recommend journaling as part of your spiritual development. It’s actually how this blog ever even started!! 😉

Have a great day my lovelies!!

The Devil, God, and The Law of Attraction

I no longer subscribe to the concept of the devil. I have been highly blessed to make a “face to face” connection with God. God is pure awesomeness and only wants what is best for us. The Bible wasn’t lying when it said “I know the plans I have for you…Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope & a future” THAT’S the God I know. I have been blessed with the wisdom to fully grasp what the law of attraction is on a very deep and personal level.  As a result of those two things the devil no longer is a logical thought for me.

It’s hard to explain the law of attraction without over simplifying it or making it too complicated so here’s to trying to find that sweet spot:

*God (insert your God label here) has created us

*It’s just them i.e. no counter to all the goodness that is God (aka the devil.)

*God gives us the free will to choose if/when and how much we would like to connect and access them in all their pure unyielding love and goodness (now’s a good time to remember even if you turn as far away from them as you can you can never fully remove yourself from that connection because we are all of and from God)

*What I feel a lot of us don’t realize (through no fault of our own) is that the same awesome God who created us gives us creative license to make our lives anyway we want!!!! You’ve heard a million times life is what you make it, you are the creator of your destiny, what you think about you bring about and tons of other phrases to that same effect, know why? Cause it’s true!!!!!

*The law of attraction comes into play here.

*The Law of Attraction says everything that happens in your life experience good or bad you have created yourself.(because he give you the ability to create!!)

*You have more control and power over what happens in your life than you may realize. We as humanity have been raised to live life on autopilot. By autopilot I mean the belief that you have no control and your fate is in the hands of a God that is separate from you?

**Quick but relative tangent**

  • This is where the shaking of one’s core beliefs comes into play so once again I’ll remind you to take it back to meditation and see what your God tells you 🙂
    *We are God. (I know that statement is slightly uncomfortable for those of us that were raised in religious institutions which teaches that God is separate from us.)
  • Religion teaches us we were created in God’s image.  We see that in the general belief that all good things and qualities in humanity are where we see God work. God works in, through and around us all the time.
  • Religion also throws a little asterisk next to that acknowledgement by saying BUT God is separate from lowly little humans. I now respectfully disagree.
  • My truth is I am of and from God. I am worthy and adored (as are you :)) Jesus knew that little tid bit which is why he spent his life teaching others.  But I digress….

*Anything you ask God for >>think about<< God will deliver >>bring about<<  every single time. no exceptions.  If people would accept the concept that there are no such things as coincidence it would be substantially easier to grasp that.  When you don’t believe in coincidences you take responsibility for the happenings in your life.  When you take responsibility for the happenings in your life you accept you are the creator of your reality.  When you accept  you are the creator of your reality in combination with the idea that you are created in God’s image you can’t see yourself as separate from God. And when you view that all that way there is just no room for the devil. 🙂

*So now here we are, conscious creators of our reality….I would try to go further into the law of attraction from here but hey,  I know my limits and wouldn’t do it justice lol.  I’d recommend you check out some of the following things below.

Here’s to wishing you much soul growth and expansion with this post ❤

God, Body and Soul

What I’ve learned about the soul is as follows:

Our souls are customized pieces of God.  God is infinite.  They*he/she/whomever* have no limit of combinations of what we view as characteristics.  Much like a master chef they add different ingredients to make the delicious dish that is our customized souls.  This is reflected in the fact that no two people are ever going to be 100% alike no matter how many similarities they hold.

We take our customized souls and put them into the physical body.  Now we’re body and soul BUT WAIT!!! They aren’t done there, in addition to our body and soul we are given  an emotional guidance system it’s sort of like your direct line to God.  The better you feel the more you are connected, the worst you feel the less you are connected.

I find it important for people to understand God is nothing but pure awesomeness (for lack of better words lol) God is only love, peace, joy, forgiveness, caring, thoughtfulness and all the beautiful qualities we see in the world.  We as individuals have the option to tap into the constant flow of Love he sends to us or to turn away from it but it’s ALWAYS THERE. The gratitude I feel knowing that fact is nearly indescribable

Emotional Guidance System

Emotions….

I am an empath and I am a woman.  The concept of emotions is not a foreign one to me lol!

*in the event you’re curious about what it is to be an empath check out this article, although I generally disagree with one size fits all listing it is helpful in getting validation about things you’ve probably already know about yourself which ultimately helps you grow 🙂 http://themindunleashed.org/2013/10/30-traits-of-empath.html*
We are all fitted with an emotional guidance system which sort of serves as your personal meter to know how aligned you are with God.  The better you feel the more you are aligned, the worst you feel the less you are aligned. *An important side note being no matter how low on the meter you are, you still can never fully disconnect with God….EVER–which is beautifully awesome to me.
A side note to the side note is also to remember that free will is very much so real.  If you have ever looked at something and said “how could God allow this to happen?” Free will is the answer.  They don’t force anyone to connect and align with them, they allows everyone to connect and align with them so when you see things in people that are vicious or hateful you can likely be assure that individual has opted not to connect and align…aka don’t blame God for stuff lol
Back to our emotions!
Emotional-Guidance-Scale-1
*Thanks Abe and Esther!!*
You are always feeling SOMETHING in every waking moment.  It is your job to be mindful of your feelings in order to keep them moving forward in a positive direction.  When you are feeling good, good things come to you.  *A discussion about the law of attraction will also be had just not now lol*
I believe this so much so that I actually got this lovely tattoo as a reminder 🙂  the heart beats on average 75 times in a minute (resting) that gives you 75 times every minute of your day to be aware of your feelings.  That is AT LEAST 57,600 opportunities to connect yourself with God a day!!! It’s amazing really!?
All in all never discount your own feelings.  Never let anyone else discount them either.  Whatever you are feeling in any given moment is valid.  Strive for positive feelings because that’s how you get close to God and what could be better than that!?

Amazzzzzzzing Book!

I have to take a moment to give much gratitude and love to Abraham 🙂 I was lead to the book Ask and it is Given and the impact it had on my awakening conscious and spiritual develop is beyond words!! I’ve learned so much and have really hit the pavement running as a result of reading this book.

Thanks again guys!!! ❤ ❤ ❤

Time is on my side, yes it is.

We are taught from the beginning that time is linear, we look at the concept of time in terms of seconds, minutes, hours, days, months and years.  Lately I’ve been able to understand time in a different way which I find amazing.  Time relates to how long you stay present in a moment.  This explains why it can feel like you blink and a child you remember as baby is now full grown, it also explains why a work day can feel like an eternity. In that sense time isn’t fixed or linear it’s a view point from the present.

I just saw this video and it fell in line with this subject. Love it!

What I learned about Indigo children, Christians, Jews, Muslims and Buddhist

In my quest for understanding by way of spiritual development amazing things have been falling at my feet.  The law of attraction *which some may also know as Karma* is pretty awesome that way.  I ask for understanding and boyyyy did it flood me.

In that process I came to learn about what people call “indigo children” the long and short of it is they are spiritually aware and connected children–some are considered old souls also.  The definition of such children considered them to be special or select.  Not everyone is given such a gift so on and so forth.I believe I’m an indigo adult however, the concept of being an indigo is really no different than the concept of being a Muslim, Jewish or Christian.

There is no chosen or special group!

We all come from the same place!!! That place being God *once again remembering whomever you chose to call he/she/them is of no importance because it’s one in the same*  The difference between an Indigo and one who is not an Indigo is simply awareness.  People who are considered Indigo’s have either come back to or never left their connection with God.  As a result they have a higher sense of awareness *also known as consciousness*

The good news is we all have access to the same God 🙂 This is where a true understanding of free will becomes important.  We all have the same open access to the most amazing, caring, tender loving, peace filled, comforting, nurturing God.  It is up to each individual to determine how much of that they access. All you need do is ask that it reveal itself to you and before you know it you will live in the Love and Peace that is God.  It’s a amazing connection that unfortunately transcends words. *The unfortunate part being that even though I try to share how amazing it is you will never really know what it is until you personally experience it.*  Ultimately it’s of no matter really because all it takes is a desire to want that experience for yourself and an open heart and mind.  With those two things there is no way you will not get to meet God face to face 🙂

Meditate and Connect.

Tons of Love, Light and Joy to all ❤

Who God is *to me*

I have to take a moment to explain God just so we are all on the same page.

God is whomever you personally view God as.  There is no wrong there is no right because ultimately they are all the same thing with different packaging.

Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, Allah, Mother Nature, The Universe, Sources energy, Aliens and any other name you can think of are all the same thing so take your choice of label.  Whichever you feel the most comfortable with go ahead!!

When one can grasp the concept that there is NO ONE WAY up that spiritual mountain you spend a lot less time concerning yourself with someone else’s path and a lot more time focused on your individual walk because what it all comes down to is you’re using some many words to describe the same thing.
