Carpe Diem

If there is a problem
you encounter,
do you not first
tackle it with
your mind,
sorting through
possible solutions,
looking for
an answer that
you may find,
then might you
open up more
possibilities,
by turning it over
to your soul –
can your soul
not expand your mind,
nudging,
guiding you
so you will know?

Inspiration,
brain-storming,
do you not wonder
where some ideas
come from –
it matters not
the source of what
inspires you –
are you not All
a part of the
One?

Step back from what
you are analyzing,
where you may only
see one side,
when you expand to
your greater awareness,
can you not change your
perception
and see all sides?
Might it be like looking
at what is on paper,
then seeing it all
in virtual 3D,
does not your soul
stretch your mind
helping you to see
all possibilities?

Yes, honor your mind,
it has served and
helped you well,
but you are part
of something greater,
that your soul knows
very well –
dip into the wellspring
of knowledge
that helps to connect
the dots you see –
You Are limitless,
You Are creative,
You Are potential –
All Possibility.

Stretch beyond
your comfort zone,
your soul knows
the way –
Be inspired.
Be bold.
With Love,
now seize
the day!

All In, Love

Let Love.
Be Love.
With Strength
and Courage,
Be brave.
With compassion
in your heart,
find a multitude of ways
to Be loving
today.

Surprise yourself,
surprise someone –
do something different
just for fun,
give Love away,
knowing there is more
to come,
with no strings attached,
no story to be told.

Let Love.
Be Love.
With Joy
in your heart,
Be bold.
Stretch outside
of your comfort zone,
knowing with Love
you are always Home,
make someone’s day,
let Love find a way,
to share the Light
in you
with someone new
today.

Let Love.
Be Love.
With Humility,
receive Love.
With Gratitude
in your heart,
Be a Light
with a loving spark,
brighten any room
you may walk in,
Be Love right now,
with no beginning
or end.

Let Love.
Be Love.
With Love
Be All in.
All Is Well
with Love –
let the magic
in You,
begin.

Remember to Know

20180824 XPicture

8/24/18

Can you look beyond
any human face,
to sense someone’s spirit
within their heart,
yes, humanness
can make it hard
for you to believe,
that Love always
connects you,
though it may be
difficult to see –
do not let the
human world
always rule the
show,
open your heart,
look with Soul Eyes,
you will remember,
you will know.

Does not kindness let
the heart opening begin,
and Gratitude will
open many doors
that were closed
to keep you in,
let the Love in you
flourish,
it will know where
to go –
in your heart,
you will remember,
you will know.

This is not creating
something new,
this is You in your
natural state,
you need not completely
change,
or begin with a
blank slate,
might you let go of
the armor
you thought you needed
to be safe,
is it not Love that
is Strength and Courage,
that comes forth
when you release layers
of your beliefs?

Look beyond.
Open your heart.
Let Love show –
You Are Love.
All Is Love,
You remember,
You know.

Hearts of Love

20180823 XPicture

8/23/18

When two or more
are gathered,
might you lead with
Hearts of Love?
Might you help
each other journey
over rocky roads
you may stumble upon,
even when you put
your best foot forward,
there may be times
when you trip
and fall –
can all not help each
other back up
and continue to walk
this Path of Love?

Do not situations arise
that help to bring Light
to see with better clarity,
when you use Love
as your guide,
does Love not help
to navigate
any road you walk?
Walk with your
sisters and brothers,
be ready to lend
a helping hand –
are you not in this
life together
to shine your Lights
and to understand?

Whether the road is
smooth or bumpy,
is it not the bumps
that help you to grow,
reach out to
your fellow travelers,
to help navigate
a heavy load,
when All can shine
their Lights,
might you see
with greater clarity –
that when All Hearts
are joined together,
is Love not the connection
that helps All Be?

Go to your heart.
Let it guide you
through dark
or light.
Connect with Love,
fellow Lights,
you turn up the Love
as you shine so bright!

A Call to Love

20180810 XPicture

8/10/18

When you connect
with Love,
the Truth of
Who You Are,
do not Strength and
Courage
step forward to
welcome you,
they are always
by your side,
you need not beckon
them to
come through,
are they not hand-in-hand
with Love,
as You Are, too?

Is there not Joy
when you release
the bonds of fear,
are you not set free,
from beliefs that
cloud your view,
is not Joy always ready
to dance,
to play,
to sing,
when you find your voice,
can you not find Joy
in everything?

And with Gratitude
in your heart,
for each experience
big or small,
are you not grateful
to find Love
woven in
throughout it All,
some may be a gift,
sometimes the gift
is You,
when you discover
your true nature –
You Are the Love
that Loves You.

Let Peace lead you
to stillness,
let stillness
lead to Peace,
are you not Peace
when you feel
your innate essences
helping you fly free,
call on One
or call on All –
they answer always
to a Call to Love,
you have the power,
can you feel it,
You Are always,
always,
Love.

Be-ing You

20180807 XPicture

8/07/18

As you step into
You,
will it not feel like
a deja vu –
are you not already
where you need
to Be –
Be-ing You?

As you drop the illusion
of who you think
you are,
as you emerge
clearing the dust
from your lens,
are you not always
You
before any beginning
and beyond end,
are you not always –
Be-ing You?

You need not create
a better you,
one waits patiently
for you,
as you let go of
what tends to hide,
who is always with you
inside,
tell fear and doubt
to please step aside,
there is no stopping –
Be-ing You.

Let your Light
so brightly shine,
find the spark
that glows at
all times,
Be the Light that shines
so you may always see –
You,
Be-ing You,
Be-ing Free.

Something New

20180730 XPicture

7/30/18

Give something new
a try.

Try it on,
take it out for a spin,
wear something new
even if you don’t
wear it again,
step out of your
box,
stretch yourself
to see You,
might you still
recognize yourself,
even if you step
into something new?

No matter the identities
that you try on
for size,
and yes, you all
have had a few,
as you think back
over your life –
you will always
Be You,
no matter the story
that is told,
do you not feel
the same at 12,
no matter what age
you are old?

So discover more of
You,
as you let yourself
out to play,
it need not be too
serious,
to try something new
today,
you will always be
You,
a magnificent expression
of the Divine,
so stretch yourself,
step out,
give something new
a try.

See You at your core,
no matter what you
put on,
each moment is new,
and Love is always
where you belong,
the yin and the yang,
is the Balance of You –
You Are Love
Everlasting,
in all expressions
of You.

Living Truth

20180726 XPicture

7/26/18

Live your Truth,
in the moment
of any day,
you can announce it
to the world,
or you can honor it
in your own way,
is not your Truth
an innate compass,
that points you in
a direction to serve –
serving Love,
serving Truth,
and thus serving You?

Is it not a magical
combination,
when you step in
line with your soul,
is there not Peace
in the alignment,
when parts of You
make up the Whole,
yes, you search
for the bigger picture,
but do not leave behind
the human you,
surround you
with Love and kindness,
are You not an explorer
in this search for Truth?

Live your Truth,
it may look different
in the day to day,
when you serve
a Greater Good,
do not the ripples of Love
go about their way?
Build up your inner knowing
that Love is the
answer to All things,
let Love guide you
as you live your Truth
in the moments
of any day.

You can live it loud –
or be soft like
a cloud,
that floats across a
summer sky,
honor every moment
as the Love You Are,
morning,
noon,
and night.

A Place of Peace

20180718 XPicture

Be familiar with Peace.

Peace need not be
elusive,
it need not be hard
to find,
it may be at the end
of a rainbow,
but you can feel it
at anytime,
it need not mean
you are apathetic,
when you are at Peace,
can you not focus
sharper still –
does not being familiar
with Peace,
bring you to a balanced
state,
letting the best of You
come shining through?

There are many external things
that can throw you,
off your center,
you may feel helpless,
wishing you had more
control,
but is not Peace
where you begin,
to become familiar
with You,
once again –
are you not You
when you let Peace
come seeping in?

Finding Peace
need not mean
you are tuning out.
Be-ing Peace means
that you are tuning in.
Let Love fine-tune
your resonance,
so you may feel
the Peace within,
with Gratitude,
can you now send
Peace and Love out?

Be familiar with Peace,
strengthen your core
that shines with Love,
anything or situation
you wish to face
will be easier,
when you are in
this loving place –
where your Strength
and Courage
can help you soar,
go within to find
out more –
as you reacquaint
with your powerful
Place of Peace.

Leading With Love

20180708 XPicture

7/08/18

What would you do
in this Play of Life,
if fear and doubt
left the stage,
if you gave them
lesser roles
and not the leading
part to play,
as they demand
some attention,
can you acknowledge
and respect their
role to play,
then can you lead
with Peace and Love,
allowing Strength
and Gratitude
to show the way?

What role,
what voice
is the director,
what belief,
what script
do you wish to play –
all roles have many
options,
choices to make
along the way,
beneath the many beliefs
that you have gathered,
can you find the One
that builds you up,
what believes in You
when you are doubtful,
is it not always
Love?

Let Love lead the way,
can you adjust to how
Love feels,
the ego may like chaos,
building drama
to distract your view,
there are roles for
all of the players
that vie for your
attention here,
but with Love as
your Director,
can you lead with Love
everywhere?

Love inspires.
Love includes.
Love has a place
for all of You –
Love loves you
when you are worried,
or do not know what
to do,
give Love the leading role
and experience how the
play unfolds.
With Love,
Be Peace,
Be fearless,
Be You,
Be Bold.
