Just A Thought ~ 2010 > May 2010 ~ Now & Forever
May 2010 ~ Now & Forever

May 31, 2010

Have you noticed that a lot seems to be happening these days…not only with natural & man made catastrophes but within our own worlds, neighbors, friends and family? We are finding ourselves more and more isolated from the values we held, people we loved and places we’ve known in our heart. Technology, in many ways, has greatly assisted with these isolation techniques as we no longer send a handwritten note to share our thoughts and opinions. The sting of a keystroke catapults our impulsive responses without much thought or lack of consequence whereas previously we may have taken the time to consider what we were writing before we sent our sentiments through the snail mail. In the past ten or so years emails have been reduced to instant messaging which recently has been replaced by texting. All in all our communicative skills have been reduced to that of what a kindergartener can comprehend and the lack of expression, the clarity of thought and precise intention has been left behind in the past. And we wonder why we are so unsure of ourselves, who our true friends are and, where is the love of my life ~

We spend a lot of time worrying about these important concerns and we wonder why we feel so alone, so numb, so thoughtless, so stressed & sick and so dead…

Look around you and see how technology has affected your life, your relationships with others and just as importantly, with your self. Yes, in some ways, things appear to have improved but notice how little free time you have to enjoy the life you supposedly claim you want to live, to be with the people you care about and yet we are more stressed and unhealthy in many ways. We are fed by the media of what a perfect life, body, partner, and worthwhile career should be though we are striving for these unattainable goals which we seem to never reach including the approval of those who continue to judge us along the way.

It is time to stop the madness…to stop the merry go round that we have carelessly intoxicated ourselves with and foolishly led the generations that followed to do the same. Our children are paying the price for years of selfishness and greed and our society and country is being separated by the invisible lines of our borders, our heritage, our colors, and cultures. So what can you do to help resolve these false beliefs that seem to be weighing heavily in our daily news as the stock market tosses and turns. Are your emotions affected and out of control or are you calmly riding out the storms that lie before you in your life?

For a moment be still and ask yourself what area(s) in your life is out of control? Is it your health, your bank account, grades in school, or lack of quality relationships in your life? Be honest and take the time to find an answer—just one answer will do for now. Once you have identified that one area, write down all of the thoughts, emotions, time and power that you give to this area. What are you receiving in return for allowing your precious life to be consumed and sabotaged? Are you receiving pity, sympathy, a law suit settlement or money, an ego trip filled with anything from a feeling of superiority to inferiority, pain, jealousy, or attention? Whatever you believe you are receiving from this exchange I think you will find in the long run that it is costing you dearly in the form of time, energy, emotions, lack of or wasted forms of energy, and perhaps, a loss of genuine connection with other souls. And your body, mind, heart and soul will let you know that something just ain’t right.

The life that you are living requires an exchange of energy every second of every day. At times, your energy levels are lower due to what the body may need such as sleeping, digesting or healing though energy is still being consumed in order for energy to be processed, stored and accessed for future use. Breathing, speaking, thinking, smelling, living, listening, exercising and even dying requires energy to be used in order for the body to release its most precious treasure, the soul. The more conscious we are of these every day moments, the more opportunities we have to realize the importance of selecting how to use our energy more wisely. The Universe has a simple Law which is it takes energy to make energy. Whether this means we are what we think, we are what we eat, we are what we do, we are what we say, and we are what we create. There is no opposite to the fact that we just simply are (and yes, I know this is not grammatically correct but it is a Truth).

Use your energy to heal yourself and the world, not to cripple and fight it.

Use your energy to show compassion and your genuine heart ~ not to hide it.

Use your energy to show love not apathy.

And the beauty of this Law, since it is a Universal Truth, is that it will be as we become, we live it as we be-li(e)ving it (and once again, this is another Truth not a grammatical error). A Truth is a constant and is alive and, when we realize that we are connected to each other and we are one with one another, that there is no separation, then you will know what natural beauty is…what a soul is worth…why a heart beats…and why you are alive today.

You are here to experience the Now with every sentient being you meet and every thought you will ever have. You are made in the image of the Creator and not the muddied reflection of the mind of the ego.

There is only true power in your creation where you connect with others and bond in this oneness. The ego attempts to mirror the creative power by invoking destruction based upon the web of lies it surrounds you with.

One power is true, another one is false.

One power is creative, another one is destructive.

One power is at peace, another one is at war.

One power is all One, another one is alone.

One power is genuine, another one is superficial.

One power is Now, another one is never in the now as it feeds on your past and steals your future and sucks the very life out of you until you have nothing more to give.

Now ask yourself again, what am I truly gaining when I have everything to lose…Now & forever.
