Your thoughts

From Walking Between the Worlds – by Gregg Braden

As you journey through the waking dream of life, pieces of your life may be lost, innocently given away or taken away by those who have power over you. These portions of you are your compromises, exchanged for surviving your experience of life. When you reach a time in your life where you truly choose to love, share and give of yourself, you may find there is nothing left. You discover that you have lost yourself little by little to the very experience that invites you to share. Recognizing the patterns and masks of survival as they play out through you relationships is an accelerated path of choice. Calling back those pieces of you that you hold dear may be your highest expression of Mastery.

End quote

The day is dawning into the beauty of connected hearts
Love deeper than any ocean
Commitment, trust, and conscious Love
Empower us to be what we all desire to have.

How’s the weather?

Yes there are days when the clouds continue to scroll across the sky occasionally. There may even be days when there are only clouds. But they come and go. Different shapes sizes, colors. And textures. None quite capable of blocking out the light completely. For I know that the Sun (Source) is still shining brightly, giving endlessly, and to all regardless of your state of mind. The clouds are thoughts which float across the mind, that can seem like impenetrable objects. But clouds are water (emotions) including the Big storm clouds, which are simply a very charged and energized group of thoughts. Anger, Fear, Depression, and Resentment generate tremendous energy and can bring devastating storms into our lives. Raining and blowing like crazy they can damage or destroy our Peace.
Sometimes a rainy afternoon is the perfect time to relax and enjoy ourselves, to spend time “inside”. Rather than complaining about our circumstances, we can find respite in letting go of looking outside ourselves for fulfillment.
Today be aware of what storms you are creating or allowing and know that you can simply own your own thoughts and how they are affecting you and everyone around you.
Even watch other people and see how their personal storms are so powerful they try to rain on your parade.
They say we have 60,000 thoughts a day. How many of yours support your Heart, generate Love and contribute to a Peaceful and Joyful day?
Take charge of the clouds. “Become the Wizard”. “Be the Force” the day is full of promise and sunshine. Get your beach chair, and enjoy it! Focus on the sunshine and how wonderful your life is, even if you can only find a tiny moment in the day when the sun is shining. Appreciate that with all of you heart and I promise that tomorrow and the next day will begin to bring more and more sunshine.
Often we find our hearts touched by Love. But us it Love? Really? The physical heart knows love, and all of the warm and fuzzy feelings of romance and kisses, of sweet words and that special person. Until it perceives that it is being hurt or it doesn’t feel that it is being cared for properly. Suddenly the love turns to anger, or hatred. It shuts down and attempts to eliminate the source of its pain. Is this really Love? GOD loves us no matter what we do or say with Divine Love. There is no judgement or retaliation, no attack or cutoff. Just more Love. If we can adopt the power and energy of this Love and share it with those we care about how different our relationships will be. The divine heart nestled inside our physical heart must open to embrace our own hearts, then we can know and feel the Love that God holds for us and we can embrace and share that same Love.

The following is from the book “The Power of Now” by Eckhardt Tolle

If in your love relationship you experience both “love” and the opposite of love – attack, emotional violence, and so on –then it is likely that you are confusing ego attachment and addictive clinging with love. You cannot love your partner one moment and attack him or her the next. True love has no opposite. If your “love” has an opposite, then it is not love but a strong ego-need for a more complete and deeper sense of self, a need that the other person temporarily meets. It is the ego’s substitute for salvation, and for a short time it almost feels like salvation.
