Faithful to the Mystery

POSTED IN Posts May 10, 2012

Faithful to the Mystery

You have to make your own world, instead of succumbing to the one that presses on you. You have to turn the tables on what appears to be fate or the full weight of society. Against  the greatest odds, you have to keep your wits about you and refuse to surrender to anyone or anything less than divine. You have to be faithful to the mystery taking place in your heart, rather than to any idea or system that would try, with the best of motives, to disempower you and make you theirs.

- Thomas Moore

This Lifetime

POSTED IN Posts April 30, 2012

You have a choice in this lifetime to be afraid and crouch low …
or to live an expansive life of Yes! where dreams come true.
You can choose to dream and create.
You have a choice to direct energy into denial and losing …
or into action and building, creating, expanding, and generating.
You can choose to act and build.
You have a choice to deny your inherent gifts …
or to affirm and use your skills—your enormous,
untapped gifts—to generate wealth and expand opportunities.
You can choose to use your gifts and have abundance.
You have a choice to play defense or go on offense, to follow or to lead.

You can choose to win, to lead, to have a vision that sees opportunities.

exploding like spiders across the stars.

First Be

POSTED IN Posts March 27, 2012

Often people attempt to live their lives backwards;
they try to make more things, or more money,
in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier.
The way it actually works is in reverse.
You must first be who you really are,
then do what you need to do,
in order to have what you want.

- Margaret Young

The Dark Night

POSTED IN Posts March 26, 2012

A dark night is like Dante getting sleepy,
wandering from his path, mindlessly slipping into a cave.

It is like Alice looking at the mirror and then going through it.
It is like Odysseus being tossed by stormy waves
and Tristan adrift without an oar.

You don’t choose a dark night for yourself. It is given to you.
Your job is to get close to it and sift it for its gold.
… It is more like a stage in alchemy than an obstacle to happiness.

- Thomas Moore

Meant to Shine

POSTED IN Posts March 15, 2012

Your playing small does not serve the world.
There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that
other people won’t feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
…And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we’re liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
- Marianne Williamson
