Being you

Those times in life
where big changes move through
In perceived
Insurmountable climbs
We weaken
We surrender
We give up the fight

The very space
Spirit resides
Where clarity prevails
Illuminated direction
Choice arising
We act and move
Differently

The panic, fear zone
Within this dynamic
Welcomes everything
Into light
To merge itself
Into awakening

To more
To a way through
There you are!


You as the centre
Of this climb
Of this rush
Of everything you feel
Think and decide
You as you often
Cannot see


The universe,
The world as you
Created as the
Reality
You wish for
Need to have
Desire and crave
Do not want!


Not just one thing
But everything you are
In that moment
Of now!

A world like no other
Is yours alone
Or yours together
In your own togetherness
As the world you are
Within

You cannot race your life
You cannot miss what you are here
To experience
As you are

As you know more
As you become more
As you choose differently
As you open up
And let your moment
Open up

To reveal more
Of life
You begin to see
The wonder
And miracles
Of abundance
If love
Support
As you!

We chase others
To find ourselves
We want, desire
To build our world
We reach and find
The source to grow
To know
Ourselves

When you do
You cease and find
Effortless being
Understanding

You were always there
Where you were looking
Smiling, loving and laughing
Crying, hurt and sad
Afraid and protective
Everything you sought
To bring alive

And in the state of peacefulness
You reside in contentment
Of being home
Of being you

And no longer
Can life break you
But carry you
Lift you up
Into
This miracle
We call life ..

A reflection on relationships.

As life on this earth plane, we are all little pieces of source, mixing, melding, interacting. We feel connection, kindred relating, we feel a spark, something more than we’ve known before. We feel alive, happier, more connected. It’s our desired effect. A desire to be connected in this way to ourselves and towards others. If the feeling is an adverse one, a struggle to connect, a not so desirable emotion, we can often find ourselves avoiding how we feel, avoiding what it means as a piece of our own world within. We often judge that undesirable as something ‘wrong’, something ‘not’ as we want and believe the world to be. The moment we avoid, try to fit this into a moulded form, closed form, we miss vital links, that life in us in this way is trying to open us as.

Every relationship is a teacher.

Every relationship you are involved in is revealing you to yourself. Each of us, are a piece of each other. What you see in another is the very thing seeking you to see yourself in whatever form it’s revealing.

Each of us hold memories of each other over thousands of lifetimes, memories that relate to everything we have been, experienced both alone and together.

When you realize and remember through life around you, what you truly are beyond all ideas your mind decides, beyond all judgements and labels each piece of life is being, you accept yourself and others as they are. When you entertain the external as ‘making you feel’ this way, you’ll lose yourself and that little piece of you seeking you.

The joy of being you arises as a natural spontaneous affect. It doesn’t need or desire ‘something’ to make it happy and content. This joy is you. This state is your true self.

We are all longing, needing and desiring our own wholeness. We are blindly unaware at times what we project into each other. We fill this void and lack in so many ways. We use each other, we use life in every way to come to know ourselves. When we cannot see that all life is a reflection, a piece of ourselves, an important and valuable teacher, to shine what that life is and represents as ourselves, we project that lack we feel, that aspect of ourselves we avoid and make it be what we need and desire. We want, we mould, we attach..

The true self is grounded in itself, connected to itself, connected to life without need or desire that becomes an unhealthy attachment.

Spontaneous joy arises, the feeling of your own connection naturally moves you through life without taking away, destroying or projecting in unhealthy ways. The value of your own life feels the value of all life. You understand deeply the sacredness and reverence, within life and within yourself.

Our personal responsibility to ourselves grounded deeply as our true essence, will continue to reveal itself through all life until we see and feel connected.

Nothing or no one can bring this home, but you. Every piece of life will help you remember. Support you to see you are the source of all life as you see it. Support and open you to remember.

‘Remembering’ is remembering who you are and why your here. Remembering is always being reminded through all life, where we fit and see ourselves. How we feel and do not want to feel. How intimate we truly are towards ourselves.

How you reflect each day in the face of all life as it is, is a gift to know yourself. Is the gift all life grants you.

Through this knowing and wisdom, you neither desire or need what you come to know you are. You live authentically and rest in this knowing, this place of joy and create a life that reflects what you’ve become.

So by looking not at others, as your source of pain, struggles or love, not at others as something that makes you feel good or bad, miserable or elated. Not at others as something that you desire or need, but look at yourself and see what you already are.

Remember what you’ve forgotten, because this life and all lives, made you believe you were something else.

Your children are not your children.
They are sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you.
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.. Khalil Gibran

As parents, mentors, teachers and models to children, we often overlook what the birth of a child means, beyond our own creation. The moment you hold a child in your arms, that child is immersed into your world, your reality, as it is for you and those one with you.

Through all ages and stages you become the child’s most powerful model. They see the world through your eyes, through all of you, what you are, as their model, as their career, this in turn becomes the awakening to life they see through you.

In their formative years, what you are, what you experience, how you feel and deal with life, bridges outwardly to the child, a reflection and understanding taken in and reflected as themselves. How you engage as parents, how you engage with others, how you interact with yourself, all is a creation of your child as their model.

So as you see, our children are a gift from life and creation that opens us, to witness how we model and teach a child from the ‘I am’ perspective. The I Am, the place within you, that creates the image and likeness of itself and reflects this to the child in every way you are within yourself.

The beautiful gift of a child, is to not only bring life into this world to keep life going, creations gift of life, but it is an opportunity to look at yourself as the person you are and what you give back to the child. It’s an opportunity to look at the relationship you have with yourself. The very relationship your modelling and building with your child. The very model and relationship the child is building towards itself.

It’s very powerful isn’t it?

This tiny little being in its quest for survival, in its will to live, needs us, to sustain and nurture its life so it then can care for itself. In the beginning, as a child awakens slowly to life, the external care and love you are, the relationship you are to yourself in all ways builds the picture slowly. The child sees through its most powerful mirror, ‘you’ , through every age and stage they move through.

Through every age and stage you move through as one.

We need to fix ourselves.

Our children in the beginning are innocent, they learn and adapt to what is. Whatever that what is, is where they adjust their sails, adjust and adapt to the creation set down for them at the time of birth and all the years to follow.

We can grow with our children, even if we have neglected ourselves. A child is a gift of life, but also a gift to look at yourself as the child and adult you are ongoing.

Each time you are challenged, disapprove, are not accepting of their reality, each time you struggle with their way, their demands, their sadness or any emotion they might be feeling, it’s an opportunity for you to see yourself, see them as they are. See what you hold inside still containing you. See what holds you back from acknowledging this beautiful gift opening your eyes, opening your heart.

Are you closing off to yourself and finding it hard to meet the external demands of the child and the experience your both in together?

The breath is your most important tool to allowing, opening and bridging wholeness for the child. It’s starts in you.

To take a step back, breath deeply, you teach and model how to deal and feel more truthfully. You give yourself the opportunity to build a more loving conscious relationship to yourself. And to the child.

In this scenario, the allowance can open a more loving, empathic union between you and anyone in life.

We all make mistakes. We all can mend and heal.

This life is not something you have to get upfront, it’s a school of learning, what life is, in all ways life is.

You have numerous opportunities to know yourself through life ongoing. A child is a great source of learning as yourself.

When you are gifted with a child, in any way the child comes to you. Remember at any age and stage, your rememberjng yourself. Your modelling yourself.

They are aware of everything you are this far. They have reflected through you in their foundational years.

Those first five years ..

The foundation has been laid.

Foundations can shift and change. Nothing is set in stone.

So look at your child through curious eyes and ask yourself, what can I learn about myself through them, what can I gain to better reach them next time, what can I learn about them, so I see them.

When you see the child, you see yourself. When you see the child and you see the child feels your love and acknowledgement and gets on with life, no matter what the child is being and doing, you’ll see that in this moment you’ve broken through your own barriers.

You’ll see that the child is revealing to you what you are. What you’ve forgotten you are.

When you remember the truth, so do our children..

The truth sets everyone free..
