Activate the Light That Is You

The master teacher, Jesus, said, I am the light of the world and that You are the Light.

Light is attractive. You too have a light that attracts….an inner light. Some people shine with joy. Others emit a ray of hope. Some glow with love. Still others shine with positive energy and enthusiasm. Be an inviting light and turn your light on. Be someone else ray of sunshine. Share a smile. Use words of encouragement. Write a sweet note. Practice random acts of kindness. Give a hug. When you allow people to see tour bright light and bask in your warm radiance, you reflect more of your divinity.

The 16th century Sufi poet Rumi wrote,
For ages you have come and gone, courting delusion. For ages you have run from the pain and forfeited the ecstacy. So come, return to the root of root of your own soul.Although you appear in earthly formYour essence is pure Consciousness. You are the fearless guardian of Divine Light. So come, return to the root of the root of your own soul.

So you have some big problems, right? You may have tried to fix them before with little result. I have good news. No matter how big or daunting a situation you find yourself in, you can transform it.

You come from Source, a loving, creative force. If you think like God and be like God, you realize the incredible power you have to create. Author of many amazing books, Dr. Wayne Dyer says, Keep your thoughts centered on light and what you want, rather than on dark and what you do not want. Practice seeing the light within you. Bring light thoughts to every circumstance of darkness. It is so common to do precisely the opposite when you do, you attract more illusions of the dark.

Remember that you are part of Source, which is Light and Love.
Yurimen said, Everything has a bright and dark side to it. Those who see only the dark side of things bring sorrow and pain upon themselves. To those who are able to see at the same time the bright side of it, everyday is a good day.

Wake Up!
It is time to become conscious about who you are and what you want out of life. A key activity in adulthood is looking at the basic beliefs that are running your life. And ask: Do these beliefs work? Do they bring me happiness?

Often, the answer is no, you adopted the belief under duress and it is no longer appropriate. If your life is not working, it is time to identify limiting beliefs and replace them with life affirming ones. So begins your education in spiritual wisdom.

Right now, a shift in consciousness is happening. We are graduating from the old school of living that was about education for personal gain, and money as the motivator, to the new school of enlightenment for humanity evolution, and Truth as the inspiration.

We are moving out of the darkness of unconsciousness, which is fear-based, closed, and mired in negative emotions to the light of consciousness, which is love -based, courageous, open, and overflowing with positive emotions.

Light and dark cannot cohabitate, so when you turn the light on, it dissipates the darkness. You can activate your own soul code that contains your manifest destiny by simply choosing to stop looking outside of yourself for salvation and start looking within.

The source within you manages energy to draw to you what you want. Who you are is light. You are one with the source of creation. Therefore you are a creator. Source is unlimited. Therefore you are unlimited. Awaken from the things that scare you by shining a light on them. Scary ideas keep you stuck and living a mediocre, small, limited life. Inspirational ideas free you to live a great, big, unlimited life.

You can have more of what you want. You only have to believe it and ask for it. There is an important reminder that God wants you to hear: anything you can imagine is yours to be, do, and have. It is all there for the creating. What is inside you is what creates what is out there. You are in control. You create experiences, be they good or bad. You do it all. You are it all. You may as well get used to using divine powers to manifest what you want instead of what you do not want.

The author of Power vs. Force, Dr. Hawkins says that, what is meant by the term ‘soul’ is the capacity to experience life. Are you experiencing life to the fullest extent possible and expressing your greatest potential? If not, working with a professional coach can assist you to sift through the dark silt of life and forge a bright, soul-fulfilled life.

You are a powerful soul with divine powers, such as the ability to give and receive love, manifest your desires, think analytically, experience feelings, and understand and learn your unique lessons. You are completely unique unto yourself---on the entire planet, there is only one light like yours.

You are the greatest miracle in the world. Activate. Be divine and shine your unique bright light to the world Now.

The Storms of Life---Hurricane Dolly Visits Texas

Hurricane Dolly came to Texas yesterday.

Storms can be very scary, with all that wild wind, rain, lightning, thunder, and destruction. Weather storms serve to wake us up to the reality that there is something bigger than us human beings, and our little endless list of needs, wants and desires. Storms remind us that we really are not as in control as we think we are!
(Maybe that is why they can frighten us so much).

Storms are also symbolic of life---hings like divorce, bankruptcy, getting fired, having accidents, family feuds, etc happen to each and every one of us. The good thing about storms, stress and challenges is that they come, and they go. And if we are fortunate, they come one right after another, like the dark night experience. (Hey if they are going to come anyway, may as well get as many out of the way at one time, right? That is what I told myself over the last few years, when I was challenged with literally one thing after another).

What would good fortune have to do it with it?
Well when we are living through our own version of hell….on the other side is our personal version of heaven. And those willing to walk through the fire, do get to the other side, and soon find that everything is quite amazing and delightful.

I would like to point out that it is not a dark night of the soul----that is a misnomer---it is a dark night of the ego, because it is the ego that keeps us circling in chaos and confusion, when the soul just wants to sing and dance and party!

Ms. Big Wind Dolly gave me some extra reflection time and guess what? The sun really does come out tomorrow! In fact, it is peeking through clouds right now as I am writing this to you.

It times of the STORM: Fear Not.
There really is nothing that can harm the part of you that matters anyway.

I like what Deepak Chopra said, "One thing we can do is make the choice to view the world in a healthy way. We can choose to see the world as safe with only moments of danger rather than seeing the world as dangerous with only moments of safety."

You know, Einstein said something similar: one of the biggest decisions we can make is if the world is a friendly or hostile place.

My family sometimes wonder why I live in a place that is actually due for a hurricane and I just tell them it is where I am called to be, and more importantly, I choose to believe I am safe, secure, and protected at all times. If I can walk away from three major car accidents, I have cause to believe in something else besides little ole me---angels, the Divine!

I want to send a big hug out to all of you who were sending south Texas loving thoughts, and I am happy to report, our little island (the north side anyway) did not receive much from Hurricane Dolly except some fairly heavy wind and rains. The only thing I lost were the car magnets on my convertible!

So, watch the horizon for your next storm, and be calm, know that you know that you know that ALL IS WELL.

In bright light,
