Free Will

You can either flow with the currents of life or swim against them…..the choice is and will remain forever yours.

Everyone has the option of choosing happiness and gratitude on a daily basis, or… discontentment, depression and resentfulness.

You can choose to have desire(s) for the self alone, or commit to receiving so that others in need may share your bounty.

We can live comfortably with our “garbage” in the world of the familiar, or decide to see it for what it truly is: a blessing that allows us to see what needs to be transformed. This can be achieved by going outside of our comfort zone.

All of us can choose to be the commander of our own ship; for it is US and only us that create our realities. Everything that has ever come to be or will ever come to be is manifested through nothing more than thought.

If you expect (with certainty) that miracles will occur, then they have no choice; for the universe will give back what you expect from it.

Realize that beyond the 1% world of illusion (in which we live) lies the 99% world of what truly is. When we come to know this concept, life will take on new meaning, and the consciousness of humankind will transform.

The Ascent

Whether there is conscious awareness of it or not, every human on the planet is engaged in an ascension up the mountain; not a physical one to be sure, but a metaphysical one -proportional in scale to one’s concept of how they believe things “should be”. This concept is relative to our set of core beliefs, religion (or lack thereof), education, morals  and values.

Every single decision we make, and even more so every conscious or subconscious thought that we have is based upon these parameters. This being the case, the “climb” is different for each one of us. For some it’s a few steps up a 15 degree angle, and for others it may be a rigorous climb up Mt. Everest. Yet we are (forever) moving forward; evolving and growing-at our own pace, but nevertheless, growing all the same.

You cannot lose at this game called life if you tried, for all paths ultimately lead to the same place. It is therefore important to remember that on your ascent up the mountain, that one not lose track of why they started this magnificent journey in the first place. For when the summit appears in your line of sight, you’ll notice upon closer inspection that it was just an illusion; and come to realize that it was never really about the ascent to the top at all but about the journey.

It Can Be Said

It can be said that we are either born great or have greatness thrust upon us.

I choose to create my own path; it is a path that requires that we not sit idly by wishing and praying for a “lucky break”.

This path calls out to us to (as the late James Dean once said) “dream as if we’ll live forever, but live as if we’ll die tomorrow.”

See greatness on the horizon and embrace it as though it were required to breathe; do not wait for it to come to you.

Hold fast to your dream with the knowledge that nothing and no one can stop you from achieving it, save your own doubts and fears.

If there is one immutable truth in this world it is this……..every human being has the power to create whatever reality we choose to create.

Every person’s reality is simply a matter of what we choose to “invite in”; if we don’t invite it, it cannot be made manifest………it’s really that simple.

When one decides after looking long and hard enough for this power, they will find it.

I Am That I Am

I am the wind that blows through the trees.

I am the snowflake that gently falls from above.

I am every creature that is, was and ever shall be.

I am every ray of light, every rock and every tree.

I am the alpha and I am the omega and everything in-between.

I am all that is known and all that is unknown.

You can call on me at any time, in any place, and I am already there; but if you do not listen, you will not hear. If you do not truly look, neither will you see.

Many things have been said in my name, what I want, who I’ll punish, bless or curse for all eternity.

The simple fact of the matter is that you are given the power to choose to be in disarray or to simply be happy.

There are no divine lessons or schools of thought; no great abyss, nor eternal fire and brimstone.

There is only the hellish state of choosing to be outside of God’s love, for that is really all that there is…….love and fear. Every other emotion, concept and even thought stems from these 2 things.

Humankind was put on this planet to do one thing and one thing only: fulfill the soul’s highest purpose.

Choose to be the creators of YOUR highest order, for it is not only your right but your destiny. Live with intent, and know that we are all part of one consciousness.

I am the alpha and I am the omega.

You already know me because you are part of me, as I am part of you.

I AM that I am.

7 Ways to Happiness

Realize that you are a spiritual being having a human experience; not a human having an occasional spiritual experience.

Come to know that we are living in a space-time continuum world (of illusion) albeit a very convincing one, but nevertheless an illusion all the same.

Beyond the 1% world of illusion lies the 99% world of reality. Although this world is hidden from most of us by doubt and fear (EGO), it is as real as anything we have ever or will ever experience. Know that anything ever experienced in the 1% world is temporary in nature, and that each individual has the power at will to alter the way they experience their reality. This can be done by choosing to change the way we look at things, for as Dr. Wayne Dyer once remarked, “when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change”.

We are the only ones responsible for every single facet of our lives. We co-create with (and through) divine source everything that is ever experienced. There is no such thing as luck and there are never any coincidences. We can choose to control this process consciously, unconsciously, or by default (through the collective consciousness.)

Everything that manifests itself as reality started as a thought. As we learn how to gain more and more control over our thoughts, (i.e., choosing ones that bring us joy and releasing ones that don’t) we start to come into alignment with source energy. Upon doing this for a long enough period of time we discover who we TRULY are at our core, and realize that there is nothing more important than feeling good.

Every day, in any way choose to be proactive and live with purpose. Give of yourself whenever and however you can, for even a smile is a gift worth giving. Know that it is never about what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters most.

Happiness can never be found and is certainly something that you do not have to work at in order to achieve; it is simply and unequivocally a choice – a choice that every being on this planet has the ability to make.
