10 Steps to Expand Love In Your Life…

LOVE THY SELF   If you are ready to begin the process of experiencing unconditional love for yourself and all others, here are some pointers to share with you.

1. Tell yourself often you are perfect and pure.

2. Stop any thoughts you have that condemn yourself. Choose instead to visualize how you will change your future behaviors and rectify past behaviors.

3. Step out of your box and dare to eat, speak, dress, walk, play, rest, dance and sing in manners that are fitting of the truth you wish to proclaim.

4. Be kind to yourself and all others.

5. Smile at everyone and everything. It is hard to hold onto negative thoughts when you have a smiling face and heart.

6. When you find yourself making a judgment about anything, change your thought immediately.

7. Be mindful of every action you take, that it comes from a sense of love and not obligation.

8. Choose carefully how you spend your time. Even watching a violent movie will take you into that space, creating the possibility of that scenario re-occurring on the Earth plane.

9. Talk with others with opposing views until you have the ability to accept their opinion. You need not believe what they say, but learn to allow them to believe what they choose without feeling a need to sway them to your side.

10. Look at various cultures and religious institutions and adopt those customs that are meaningful to you. that not two of you on Earth share exactly the same belief codes. I encourage you to take time to ponder these words and integrate those that feel right to you. Practice them until they are second nature and you will be well on your Path to loving unconditionally.

One constant that you can count on is Change…

Change exists because life is in motion, and motion is one of the three aspects of the original consciousness that underlies all of Creation. Everything in the universe springs from two complementary aspects of consciousness – thought and feeling – set into motion.

The existence of motion as one of the fundamental components of Creation guarantees that change is continuous. The point of life is to experience infinite variations of expression of the one underlying consciousness, Infinite Being.

Changes in Your Life

Major changes in life are rarely easy, but our very reason for being is to work through changes and experiences in life.

 Many would say that today’s changes are intense to the point of becoming chaotic. In physics, chaos is a temporary phase between one natural state of harmony and its transformation into a higher form. The transition phase between the two states becomes very choppy until the higher form is reached.

Today, we are moving through the storm before the calm.

We are so beset by change that it can become hard to discern what changes are important and what changes are just societal noise which has little bearing on the real paths that we need to tread through life. It is here that a sense of inner direction becomes an exquisite asset.

Navigation Through Life

Sometimes your own purpose in life seems like an ever-unfolding saga. Like a journey across the seas by boat, your journey through life is made safe and direct by the use of a compass. In this journey, you have a built-in compass that helps you navigate in the most appropriate direction.

That compass is your sense of innermost joy. As an expression of your inner being, like a compass, your innermost joy points the way. When you think about the one action you could take right now which would move you towards the most long-term inner joy, you are seeing that course of action which is most connected to your inner being.

Because destinations in life are reached in steps or stages, your inner compass can actually point in seemingly different directions on different days. The key is to realize that the one task you can best address at any given moment is the one which is most aligned with your innermost joy.

Each step on a journey is different; yet, all steps lead to the final destination. If you are inspired to do one thing today and to do something different tomorrow, it is because those tasks are both steps along the pathway to the desired destination. Trust in the timing of your inner guidance. It’s wisdom comes from the part of you which is your connection to the universe and to Infinite Being.

Be attentive to your inspiration and the ideas that it brings. Make a note of these ideas as they occur and, in retrospect, you will be amazed as to how insightful they were.

The Moth to the Sun

I longed for thee when first I crawled to consciousness.

My dreams were all of thee when in the chrysalis I lay.

Oft myriads of my kind beat out their lives

Against some feeble spark once caught from thee.

And one hour mote-and my poor life is gone.

Yet my last effort, as my first desire, shall be

But to approach thy glory; the, have gained

One raptured glance, I’ll die content,

For I, the source of beauty, warmth, and life

Have in his perfect splendor beheld!

All the World’s a Stage

  All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts...
                                 -Shakespeare
Which parts do you consciously or unconsciously choose to play? 
What parts no longer serve you? 
What parts can you imagine exploring?
You have full choice with awareness and compassion 
by your side....

Dream Big….

This is your day. Every day is your day. This is your day to watch your dreams unfold. Not someone else’s dreams. Yours. The object of your dreams is to dream them and invite them to come true.

You are not a beggar of dreams. Within the seed of your dreams comes your fulfillment. You are the dreamer of your life. So, of course, I extol you to dream and to dream big. Dreams do not HAVE to come true, yet, certainly, the more you dream and the bigger you dream, the more of your dreams there are to come true.

You do not have to stick with the same dreams. If you want to jump from dream to dream the way you jump from one stone to another to get across a stream, why, that is perfectly fine as well. Dreams are not a business you must start and follow according to rules. Dreams are meant for you to dream. The object of dreaming is to dream.

There are no rules against dreaming. There is freedom of dreaming.

Dreaming is how you expand your horizons.  Unless you dream, your desires are left dormant. All of life in the world is a dream anyway. There is every reason to dream big. Your subconscious will make of your dream what it wills. Never was it intended that you be tightfisted with your dreams.

Do not only listen to the proponents of realism, for life without dreams makes for a short-changed life. Realistic doesn’t spark life. Realistic overrides life. Realistic puts the fires of life out. Realistic is a fire extinguisher. Realistic is a dampener of life. Realistic belies opportunity. Dreaming is the fuel of life. You are to ignite the wheels of life. It is for you to turn life on. Dreams are the button you push. Create balance between these two…Realism and Dreaming

Dreams are good starters. Inventions begin with dreams.

Dreams are life ahead of time. Life is meant to be dreamed of. Dreams do not waste time.

No one has to believe in your dreams! You don’t even have to. Good Heavens, dreams would not be dreams if there were certainty that they would come true.

Certainly, you don’t have to know how your dreams will come true. That’s just how it is. There are no guarantees. Dreams don’t come with guarantees, nor are they meant to. Dreams give you lots of room to play in.

Consider dreams like leaves on trees. Some leaves fall off or fly away, and some leaves last long. Because a leaf falls, it doesn’t mean the leaf is wasted. Each dream serves its usefulness, and one dream leads to another.

The substance of your dreams is expansion. The seeds you sprinkle your life with are dreams. Without dreams, you are like an automaton. I speak in terms of routine. Grand dreams, however, stir your heart. I am within your heart.

Until you envision, how will you find your dreams? Let your dreams arise. Dreams are like undergrowth that nourish the soil. There is no telling what will come of dreams that occur to you.

You cannot figure dreams out ahead of time. Dreams are not tests you take. Dreams are to go as far as they take you. With dreams, you see possibilities of your life beforehand. There is no limit to dreams. Your future depends on your dreams. Give your dreams an opportunity to go where they take you. Dreams lead. Life follows.
