listening in stillness

An Affirmation of CourageI no longer confuse what I seem to be with Who I Really Am. I still mymind and greet my courage. Here in my solitude I am not burdened bythoughts of the past. I have no fear of the future. I listen to theVoice of my soul inside me and I allow it to guide my life.I awaken to the sound of my life and feel my well-being as I placemyself in the hands of the One Spirit, God. The Consciousness thatbrought my Spirit here is the Consciousness that will guide me throughmy life - safely. My path is illuminated with pure white light as Itake my first step toward my authentic life.Every question I have is met with an answer when I still my mind tolisten. I trust in the message of my soul and my way is made clear.This day is the birth mother of tomorrow and I create my tomorrows bythe choices I make today. I know that I am fulfilling the dream thatwas always meant for me, as I take each step of my life forward withlove and courage.I bind myself to positive faith and allow the Power for good to surgearound and through me. I charge myself with radiant I Am light, andembrace all Power given to me from above and below. My courage dispelsthe limits and inhibitions of my past. I will live each day from thismoment on in accordance with the message from my soul and be liftedinto the future of myself. I am indeed blessed. And so it is.Maureen Moss

Your moment

When you sit in the midst of it all, and trust the unfolding of your life, quiet words will whisper into your soul and tell you where to go.   When you get quiet long enough… sometimes longer than you think you must,  you will find the path and the road to take to the present moment.   This is your day.  Right here and right now is your moment.  The only moment.  The only moment that matters.  Its here, it is yours… for the asking.

I am here to create a space

****

I am here to create a space.  My home is open to share with the people I love and the people that pass through my life.

Who will share your time

Be where you are.
And give what you have to give.
Don’t worry that it is not good enough.  

People who need to receive what you have to give, will come to you.
People that need something else, maybe even something more advanced or more refined, will go to someone else.  There will also be people who are not ready to embrace what you have to offer. They too will pass and go.  
That is not a judgment of you or where you are at.  It simply is a matter of divine timing acting in the lives of many people.  
You are where you are meant to be at this time.   Be yourself and give of your gifts freely and with intuition.   You will know who is meant to share time with you.

follow your dreams

Goals are one dimensional… in the moment that you decide that the goal will be, it has life and energy to it, but often becomes a deadline and a vague and luminous expectation.   The life around you is not so stagnant and thus your dreams will do best, to also not be so stagnant.

When you set a goal, its best to give the goal a life of its own and let it evolve and change with each passing instance.  Those are the goals we love for the length of our strange progressions and unexpected detours.   The detours can be the unfolding of new dreamy delights … but we have to be willing to go there.    Follow your dreams….   yes follow your dreams… they are leading you….


Sometimes the best thing we can do, is to figure out what we DON’T  want to do.

Listen to the quiet voice inside

"To know how to choose a path with heart is to learn how to follow intuitive feeling."

-- Jean Shinoda Bolen

What ideas are teasing you these days?

Are you aware of any little gems floating around your consciousness these days? Charged little thoughts that beckon you to pay attention to them? Inspiration and intuition often bring powerful new ideas to us very subtly, very quietly. When you become aware of being teased by an idea, follow it!

"Get your ideas on paper and study them. Do not let them go to waste!"

-- Les Brown

Its very hard sometimes to know your own intuitions intentions.

I know there is a place in me that is full and does feel unsatisfied.  It is not careful or hesitant about life.   There is a place inside of me that is free and comfortable with all people and all affairs.   This is the part of me that I call up from my soul and into my life.  It is a truer me, untarnished with experiences in lack or despair.  

Sitting and writing everyday makes me a better person.  writing makes me happier than I am when I am not writing.
I sit with my music, my candle, my tea or coffee… and I wait.  It’s the waiting that is better than anything else.   Waiting for my true thoughts and feelings from the hours since last writing to come to the front.   And while all the inspiration, confusion, love, and passion come up from inside me I give birth to all the things that shouldn’t be kept inside a person.  

I guess I seem a little silly sometimes to people.   All my oddities.   I might tame them a bit if I thought I could.   But I often lack the self control of my self expression.   hahaha   That makes me laugh.  You know I am glad I lack self control of my self expression.   I like being unwilling to hold back.  I like being irrepressible and unyielding in my desire to share my self.  And if I throw in a little discernment in, I guess most of the time it serves me.  

I love people.  I love so many people.   Some drive me crazy for their insistence…and so I try not to do the same to others (when I can help it )    But most people delight me and I hope that I delight most people.  People expressing themselves makes me happy.   All their multicolored personalities and quirks.  I love their little funny things.  The shoes they choose to wear.  Like the woman I think of now… who wears here cute little heels even in the rain.    And my other friend who wears the same shoes, every single day and seems to have done so every single day for as long as I have known him.   And my friend who wears hats and scarves like a southern belle.  My friend who wears so many bright colors and has inspired me to find my color flare.
These people… they connect to something in me.   And even if I laugh at them a bit on occasion.  I love them so.   I love them for all their quirks and little delicious faults that make them human and beautiful to me.    

This morning I chose tea instead of coffee.   I felt calmer than coffee.  I have been drinking coffee every morning for the last year, and this morning I remembered a time when I didn’t do that.  I remembered a time when I didn’t wake up to an alarm clock, and didn’t need a jolt of hot black java to move me into action.    Sometimes even skipping the coffee all together.  Sometimes sipping tea instead.    Because I like it when the world moves at a slower pace.  I like it when I move by my inspirations and not my to do list.  I like to sit as long as I need to, until I can’t stand to sit any longer, and must must must get up and go attack my latest mind work.  
So today I sip tea instead and I anticipate a wonderful day filled with these things.   Have a great day world.  

You are Here

You are a wonderful human being. You are strong and capable of imagining, desiring, creating, and manifesting anything you want in your life. The life of God breathes in you and you are a reflection of divinity. Your soul is evolving and your life is changing in ways that you want.

Today is your day for taking one more step down the road of your choosing. You are here to create a life of wonder, and you are! You are here to create a life full of love, and you are!
You are here to be you, to let the shallow negative shells around your pure self fall to the ground beside you and melt away. You are evolving and growing into your destiny. This is your place in the world.

You are divine in spite of your failings. You are beautiful in spite of the ugly, defeating things that you expose your heart to over and over again. You are complete and whole from the inside out.
You are here today to live, to breathe, to walk forward in your life and explore its unfolding.
