Good evening angels, guides. I’m so happy to be here writing to you and hearing you and feeling you. It was a wonderful weekend with my friends in North Carolina. I feel so fortunate to be their lives. They’ve helped make mine wonderful for all the years they’ve been there. Learning with them, sharing the joys of just talking and eating and learning together – such pleasure.Good evening L. Yes, these friends are treasures. They treasure you as you treasure them and the relationships that you share are enriching on very high levels. You trust one another and you have learned this trust over time – earned it as well. All are growing and it delights you all to feel this growth.
Now, growth is of the soul and growth is of the spirit. And growth is of the mind and growth is of the physical body. Growth is the natural order of Being. Did you know this? Growth is the natural state of Isness and Being because energy is never static, or if it is static then it is dying, that is, shrinking in its magnitude. But at that point it transmutes into something else. So it does not disappear but it changes form.
This same principle holds for you and your friends. Your energy intermingles as you come into more Being with each friend and acknowledge and honor the isness of your friendship -- the natural state of growth and expansion that is part of energy that is alive.
This growth and expansion defines the quality of your friendships. So always work to see that expansion.
Now, there are times in some friendships that it is appropriate to let the energy fade, or to let the energy REST – this is a better word because it indicates that there is a respect for the gains but also an appreciation for honoring self. Sometimes we cannot grow in a relationship with a friend because the energies are very different and at this time it is appropriate to allow the energy to sit and reflect upon itself without the interference of consternation or stress or drama, which usually accompanies a relationship that is moving into the rest stage. Rest is ironically what follows chaos. Chaos and rest are two energies that co-exist, or exist in an equal and opposite relationship to one another. They are extremes and you will see this in the Universe and you will see it in the galaxy and you will see it in a solar system and on individual planets and in the lives of the people who inhabit the planets. We are fractal patterns of one another and we follow order, structure, discipline, form. These are the patterns of the Universal system, and they extend on every level, seven relative to seven into infinity, as they are expressed in every form – physical, geometrical, metaphysical, spiritual, etc.
So with your friends there is this energy of chaos at times, but as you each learn and raise your awarenesses of your inner beings, your love and your spirit lights, you are satisfied to let the ego cravings of the past become residents of the past rather than tenants of the present. This is very good. You come to appreciate the finer elements of civilized relationships, without bickering, without jealousy, without backbiting, but rather with a calm center of the intention to work cooperatively toward common goals – the goals of advancing the teaching and the goals of advancing the personal awareness and knowledge; the goals of sharing camaraderie and joy; the goals of being in a oneness of community with a shared purpose, which always brings not only satisfaction but the magnetism of new energy. With these shared focuses, you draw unto yourselves like energy, and this like energy allows you to expand the energy that you deem – and that truly is – important to your work.
Now, be aware that all thought is alive. So to the degree that you can bring your productive thoughts into more life – more charged electromagnetism, your work and your efforts will be more appreciated by others and yourself and will bear more fruit. So think: what can I do so that I can bring the energy to a higher level? To await another’s work is not the best use of creative energy; in fact, this is not creative but rather it is leaching. The creative being creates out of the desire to see the creation grow. An ameba even appreciates its own growth. Would not a human feel many times greater than that?
So ask yourself: What can I create with all my gifts and how can I use these gifts to fulfill my own unique purpose in being on Earth? What is my purpose? Why am I here with this phenomenal group of creators if it is not to create something more phenomenal? Phenomenon means it is something that is beyond what we thought we knew or sensed – it is in the hyper-perceived category. So we must elevate our thinking and our emotions so that the creations, and the will to create, are hyper-charged with excitement, enthusiasm, passion, joy, ecstacy – and Wow! Look out! Just imagine how big that creation can be.
So the challenge is to think big. When you were young, as a child, your thoughts were always big and expansive. You would look at a cloud and you would think of yourself walking on the cloud or walking through the sky like a giant with winged feet. Or you would eat something and you would imagine the seed of that fruit growing large, large, large like a tree extending into the sky. Or you would imagine fairies and elves and wonderful dancing creatures in the woods that you could play with and travel with and sing with and enjoy. There were all the wonder thoughts, the big thoughts, the unrestrained thoughts of the imaginative child that did not know or did not have a concept that thought “should” be limited. You see, society and our religious beliefs have taught us that thinking big is a sin. Think small – think unworthy – think limited. This is what we have been taught as facts have been thrust down our gullets and our imaginations have been taxed with the chaos of fear and all manner of fear manifestations.
So we need to undress those fears and bring the body free of trappings into a sunny spot and see the precious, sparkling skin of imagination alive. See and feel your imagination in all its power and all its potential, and know that you have no limits to what you think and what you can truly create!
It is immense. Our creations can be immense if we allow them all the free range that we have been designed to give them.
In fact, our very world is a product of our imagination. As we think, we create; as we love, we attract. These are famous words and they are true. Think big; create big; love large; love All!
Now, once you have the imagination in gear, then you can also apply the planning skills. Planning is a very satisfying and rewarding task – although let us not say task per se because that may frighten the mind timid of work. But let us say planning is a joyful noise unto the soul because the soul is the very embodiment of planning in the body of the spirit. The soul does the spirit’s work and so it must be about the task of planning. The soul is endeared to planning and so as you plan, you delight your soul. It is happiest to be about the work of its mother, its spirit parent.
So think carefully about the many ways in which you can execute the plans to bring more life to what you have imagined. Write them down. Dream of them. Talk about them with friends. BE them. BE your plans. BE your energy in action.
And it is important to share your thoughts. Blog, speak, write articles, share in whatever way you can. A word can be most powerful. A tiny moment with a stranger can be powerful. Pay it forward, pass it on, share.
And keep your commitment to living your dream, your imagined reality. Your promise to yourself to stick with your goals is very important. Your commitment is your intention, and your intention is your contract with yourself. It is an insurance policy that your soul and spirit will always happily sign.
And remember to go easy on yourself if you get frustrated with the way the physical world moves and works. There are lessons in every moment, and these lessons are unique to each person. They are perfect and they are designed by you to get your attention. We must be flexible in recognizing always that the soul and spirit are inseparable and will guide us regardless of where we may otherwise think, if we are using any ego energy, that we should be going.
So these are some thoughts about the recipe for bringing into focus an idea and acting upon it and seeing it through to fruition.
You read in the paper today that personal achievements are the antidote to depression. This is so. Your achievements are the greatest uplifting element of your life. If you believe in yourself, then you will believe in your power to achieve. We are on earth to achieve great things, although we limit ourselves because we do not believe that we are great or that we have the potential to be great. We sometimes think that great means just those faces carved into the mountain or sitting on the pages in the history books. Believe me, great is far deeper than this and far more profound in its expression. You ARE great, and you ARE a creator. Believe in your creativity because this is the expression of the Creator.
So be all that you can be. Love your self and love others with all your heart and let your loving creations come to the fore to be expressed for your unique satisfaction and for the rewards that are part of your soul heritage. Whether or not others recognize you is irrelevant. Your greatness shines as you believe it, in humility, to Be.
Here is to your greatness, human. You are Love. You are Light. You are a piece of All That Is. You are more than great. You Are. And THAT is the greatest!
