Guest guest Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 I Cherish The Experience Of Life Take a moment from time to time to remember that you are alive. I know this sounds a trifle obvious, but it is amazing how little time we take to remark upon this singular and gratifying fact. By the most astounding stroke of luck an infinitesimal portion of all the matter in the universe came together to create you and for the tiniest moment in the great span of eternity you have the incomparable privilege to exist. For endless eons there was no you. Before you know it, you will cease to be again. And in between you have this wonderful opportunity to see and feel and think and do. Whatever else you do with your life, nothing will remotely compare with the incredible accomplishment of having managed to get yourself born. Congratulations. Well done. You really are special. But not that special. There are five billion other people on this planet, every one of them just as important, just as central to the great scheme of things, as you are. Don't ever make the horrible, unworthy mistake of thinking yourself more vital and significant than anyone else. Nearly all the people you encounter in life merit your consideration. Many of them will be there to help you - to deliver your pizza, bag your groceries, clean up the motel room you have made such a lavish mess of. If you are not in the habit of being extremely nice to these people, then get in the habit now. Millions more people, most of whom you will never meet or even see, won't help you, indeed can't help you, may not even be able to help themselves. They deserve your compassion. We live in a sadly heartless age, when we seem to have less and less space in our consciences and our pocketbooks for the poor and lame and dispossessed, particularly those in far-off lands. I am making it your assignment to do something about it. (Bill Bryson, from the book, I'm a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After Twenty Years Away) I Cherish My Challenges & Challengers ....extraordinary crises have a way of summoning extraordinary virtues. (Ernest Partridge) - www.crisispapers.org/essays8p/siegelman.htm I Cherish The Moments ~ I See WOWs In More NOWs Creativity is so very important, and some of you cringe when I say that because you don't think you're creative. Let that go. It is important for a creator to be creative. It's a natural state. It's very important right now for you to do something creative, whatever that is. It doesn't mean you have to write a best seller book or produce a YouTube video or anything like that. What's creative for you? When you allow yourself a creative endeavor it gets a different type of energy going within you. It keeps the mind in balance, you see, because when you're not actively being creative that's when the mind tends to get imbalanced. Do creative things – build something, write something, paint something, sing something, do whatever it is – but it's very, very important right now on your checklist to have regular creative endeavors. Do them for yourself, not for other people, but for you. Create something that moves and expands – a very important energy right now. (Tobias through Geoffrey Hoppe) - www.crimsoncircle.com I Embrace Who I Am As you look deep into your own reflection, how do you feel? Is their joy that stands in front of you? Is their remorse? Is their distaste? Is their love? It is imperative that you do anything and everything that you can to place yourself in a garment of self love, for it is the canoe that will take you to the island that you so seek… All the external doorways and the dimensions that you seek outside of yourself through crystals, through books etc; but give you a taste, a spoonful of the very thing that you truly need… The next place of momentum takes the form of a labyrinth, a point of going around and around and around in a Fibonacci spiral to find the nautilus of you. At that point of inner centeredness you will drop and rise simultaneously creating a dimensional flux, a bend in your future, a bend in your planet, and a bend in the light. At that point of bending, you will then be offered an opportunity that comes only when you have initialized the codes of self-love. Then and only then will you be allowed entrance into the center of your universe. Within you is a time safe trigger. It is waiting for certain dates and number conjunctions on your calendar to activate, to ignite, and to awaken dormant truths. The doorway is you. The time is now. The entrance code is the energetic signature of your love for you. It is not a handprint. It is not an eye scan. It is not a thumbprint. But it is a heart print that allows you entrance. Not the imprint of your love for the neighbor, or your father-in-law, or an abusive parent; but your love for you, is how you gain entrance into this doorway of the future. (The Council of Annu through Gillian Macbeth-Louthan) - www.theQuantam-Awakening.com What I Say, Be, & See - I Become I conceive it, I believe it, I receive it. (Dean Fraser) I Neutralize Negativity ~ I Prefer Positivity We implore you to not become caught up in your news reports concerning your economies, the oil crisis, and the housing and credit crises. It is appropriate for there to be a leveling and balancing of these energies at this time. That which has been built on illusion must be brought back into reality. That which has been for the highest good of the few, must be brought back into alignment with the highest good of the many. If you spend your time and focus on your news broadcasts and printed news, you will find yourselves entering into more and more despair and fear as you believe you are watching your world collapse. You will fear for your very survival. We ask you to not go to this place, dear ones. Instead, keep your focus on that which gives you pleasure and joy. Keep your focus on your loved ones and your soul families. Make this a time of community, of coming together and focusing on your relationships with others. For the new earth, the new world you each seek entrance to is not about the individual, it is about the collective. The new energy is concerned with the vibration of the whole, the health and well-being of the whole. When you as individuals truly realize that there is no separation and begin to see no differences between you and your neighbors, you will be well on your way to living fully within the new earth energies. Some of you may fear that this means a losing of one's self, losing one's sense of individuation. You have nothing to fear in this regard. Though it may be difficult for you to comprehend at this time, know that rather than losing your sense of self, you will actually gain your sense of self within All That Is. You will become more of who you truly are, not less. Please remember that as you move through these seemingly chaotic times, it is of the utmost importance that you remember frequently throughout your day to return to your center, to your place of balance, to that place within you where you feel your joy. In so doing, you will be prepared for whatever awaits you in the breaking down of the local, government, and world realities which no longer serve the world's people or the planet herself. In keeping your balance and your focus on what is positive in your life, in your world, you will also hold that energy for the planet to see her way through the morass she currently finds herself in. There is a light at the end of the tunnel you find yourselves in. Find that light within yourselves and then hold its energy for your neighbor so that they can then find it within themselves. Be the light of change you wish to see in your world. Hold the energy of the light for those who are in fear or who are not yet awake. In doing so, you each help to lead the world out of darkness and into Enlightenment. Well done dear, precious beings of light. Do not falter now. Hold the light and know that change must and will occur.
