Breathing Truth

How does one get to the core of a moment? ...to that place where real insight appears, where meaning abounds, and where the power of lasting change becomes undeniable?

Really....its an interesting question more to help me get to a point where I feel .....open enough, to myself and to you, whoever you might be, to just let go and share the flood tides of insight that have been given to me and that will inevitably take over my heart and mind as I continue writing. Its the strangest thing, and sometimes it is readily perceptible, the way I'll go from this fairly simple and limited way of thinking to an infinitely broader and deeply love centered focus. For some reason it feels important to me- that that happens. I know all about channeling and have studied many of its messages as a general "phenomenon." The thing that stands out to me above everything about it is how, despite the details of whatever prophecy or explanation, that bottom line is Love.

     How true....Love truly is the real and very practical glue that holds us all together. Even in our moments of disconnection and hermit-like attitudes, Love is a shining star that one simply can not shut out. Even with one's back to its heat, it takes constant energy and effort to remain in that place. But I am not here to extoll the virtues of Love as an object....as something to experience or attain. Rather, I am here to expand the very Reality of Love's Awareness.

     Think on this.....where would all the glorious manifestations of existence be without You to perceive them? Who knows? The answer is in the future, but there is an underlying reality of Nowness that precedes the future.......What is the single most unifying element in your whole experience? By far, it is You. All that is perceived comes together within your perception and your consciousness. You are a gatekeeper, of sorts, with the power to control the flow of reality. When you are aware of something, its definite existence becomes stronger....just as when you are not aware of something, its power to affect you diminishes. There are of course opportuniites to argue against this.....but the Truth remains: That which you focus on gathers strength within your personal experience.

     Life Is. You Are Life. You, as Life, have the Power to endow anything you choose with the amazing qualities of your very Being. The extremely subtle and very powerful energies that accompany your existence in this moment are like a royal crown and staff. With your will, you change your whole reality in an instant. With consistency, you change your reality altogether and like a great ship, any momentum you may already have slowly changes direction and begins to flow to where you are Now choosing. With loving dedication, you become the captain of your ship, so to speak, and all who have been meandering along the decks of their own vessels....along for the ride, begin to wonder where that one great ship in the distance is going with so much determination. What purpose could it possibly have that is so great as to disturb the glassy waters of our critical contemplation?

     And as we notice, we are transported from our perch to the bridge of our own ship where we might take the wheel, if we so choose. 

     So noticing is a key element to changing ones reality. Notice this thought, after you read these words....and then notice this thought, and this one. Notice how it makes you feel, and notice whether you like that feeling or not. Notice whether you'd rather feel another way or not, and notice your new thoughts after that. Notice the instant where choice presents itself, and you can, with a laugh, take the wheel and go in another direction.
