Down Under
Note: Greetings from New Zealand! Ty and I just arrived for a 3 week trip we have been talking about for decades. I will be making the occasional post about our adventures on my Facebook page, and if you're interested in more details and photos, Ty will be blogging regularly. [...]
Perfect Order
When the world seems to be moving faster than you are, begin with deep breathing. Slow down your racing thoughts just enough that the whisper of the Voice of Spirit can get through. “Relax,” it says. There is never any need for worry when you turn over all results to [...]
Super-Conscious
Imagine a crystal ball, clear as can be. Is it a tool of magic? Not at all. It is a point of focus, just as can be a candle, a mirror, a flower, or any other object real or imagined of your choosing. The point of such an object is [...]
A New Year Prayer
You cannot fail. You can only fail to understand how you fit into the grand scheme of things. If you think this earthly world is the only world, then you will fail to see love all around you. If you think that physical matter is really solid, then you will [...]
No Strings Attached
When others do not act as you wish, do you grow frustrated? Angry? Are you their puppet master? We do not wish to be critical, merely to make a point: You cannot control others’ actions or thoughts. Ego would like you to be in control of all around you, including [...]
Playing Your Part
Act as if you are _____ and you will be. Have you not heard this? Fill in the blank with whatever you wish. Your entire life you are acting out roles, so when you have a new role you would like to play … a new way of being you [...]
Without Angst
Yes, you can strive for the things you want and think you need. There is nothing wrong with that. Have we not told you that right and wrong are human concepts? All simply is. You give it meaning. And so, you give meaning to a goal and you go for [...]
Zero Defects
Zero defects—a human concept—that something could be less than perfect by having defects in the first place, and then not have them at all. Is perfection possible? In a realm of relativity there is only “more or less than.” And so you strive. And so you compare. And so you [...]
Who Are You?
Whether near or far, I AM always with you. You cannot get away from I AM, for the very words are your name. From the beginning was I AM. It is who you are and it explains your very existence. There is not a one of you who does not [...]
From on High
Things fall into place … like pennies from Heaven … falling … and you raise your eyes to the heavens in gratitude. Why this difference between higher up and where you are? Why do blessings appear to come from on high? It is because the soul knows there is more, [...]
Trust the Journey
This train keeps on moving. Yes, it stops at various stations along the journey, but then it continues down the never-ending tracks. Some wish to get off. They are those who do not understand the nature of the ride. They want to be in the driver’s seat instead of experiencing [...]
In Service
Distractions abound. You place your focus on one spot and soon you have wandered. It is the human way. Remain steadfast on your mission, answering your calling, knowing that you may be diverted. If you are unsure of your calling but your heart continues to nudge you, then continue to [...]
The Womb of Creation
The baby in the womb forms a bond that is unbreakable. You share a connection with the mother based on the entanglement of energies shared during the formation of your very being. How could it be otherwise? Challenges you may face or have faced with your mother are the result [...]
Not so serious!
Half-baked. You know this expression. You use it in reference to one who does not have all of their faculties or for an idea that has not reached its prime. We are referencing the latter when we say that your life is like that most of the time, for you [...]
Fully Alive
At times you wish to shield yourself from vibrations which you find uncomfortable. These often accompany emotions. "Why would I want to feel discord?" you ask, and we ask you, Are you not alive? Aliveness encompasses the full spectrum of feelings, of vibrations. In shunning the lower vibrations, you are [...]
More Than One Way
“One way or the other,” you say with determination upon setting a goal. And yes, that is how you move forward—not by staying on a fixed path, but by seeing that you always have choices and that there is more than one way to accomplish the task(s) at hand. One [...]
Beyond Compare
Why do you criticize yourself? It is the human way to compare. “This apple is shinier than that, and therefore more desirable. This house is bigger and more ornate, and therefore more desirable. That person is more beautiful than that other, and therefore more desirable.” Are you beginning to see [...]
The Power of Love
When another has angered you, you have given them power. When another has disappointed you, you have given away your power. In both cases it is the same: giving power to another or giving away your own occurs each time you allow another’s actions to determine your emotions. Thoughts generally [...]
Ever Since
“Ever since I can remember …” Have you not heard yourself say this? And this shows a pattern. Patterns are to be avoided if you wish to grow. Why? For all of life is about change, and if you or someone else has been doing or thinking something ever since [...]
