Category: Strength and Courage

Do you not wrap
yourself in fear
that you may “expose”
who you are,
does not that word
bring up the
false need
for safety
or defense,
does not vulnerability
bring up the image
of a need for protection,
but is not vulnerability
a shedding of what
you no longer “need?”

Is not your Shining Light
stronger than any
type of armor,
when you wrap yourself
so tightly
in whatever you think
is shielding you
from your fear,
your doubts,
yourself –
do you not see
your Strength,
your Courage,
when you unwrap,
unfold,
whatever you have
placed around you –
in your vulnerability,
do you not see –
you are always
surrounded by Love?

And by the
Grace of Love,
of All That Is –
can you let
that Love shine,
from your center,
from You –
no wrapping
can contain
the Love You Are
that burns within,
can it not burn off
any layer
that is dimming
your Bright Light?

Be open.
Be exposed
as the Shining Light
You Are.

You Are Light.
You Are Love.
Let It Shine.

Yes, you have heard
“you need to feel
it to heal it,”
yes, emotions
your attention snag –
can you look at what
they wish to show you,
so you may accept
them all in Love?

It is human nature
to push the feelings,
the emotions
back where they “belong” –
do you not judge,
do you not think
that some emotions
should just be “gone?”
But are these
barometers
of your feelings –
not part of you
that wishes to be seen?

Is there not freedom,
is there not a releasing,
when you step into
Who You Are –
when you accept
every emotion,
every struggle,
or accomplishment?
Can you Love
and accept every feeling,
that comes up
for Love from you –
can you be Gratitude
and with Strength and Courage,
can you Love all
corners of You?

Do not fear
the intensity
that emotion
may wish to bring –
can you open
the window,
open the door
and invite
your feelings in?

What do they show you,
what do they teach you,
what other window
do they open wide –
as you let Love
transmute each feeling,
surrounding you
with Love and Light.

As the walls fall
down around you –
are you not free,
with no need to hide –
are you not a
perfect balance
with your soul
and your human side?

Hand in hand,
can you walk together –
are you not
the Perfect Team?

Love each feeling.
Love each emotion.
Love it All
to find Peace.

It may take Courage
to speak your Truth,
it may take Strength,
to steady your voice,
but does not
the sound of silence,
one day begin
to roar?

In the dark,
you may back up
into corners
to feel safe –
but with the lights
turned up bright,
do you not see others
by your side –
let the Light
illuminate
a common cause,
no need to fight –
for by speaking Truth,
seeing Light expose
what has been hiding
in plain sight –
with open eyes
and open hearts,
can you shine
your Light
and let Love heal?

It may feel chaotic
when the lights
turn up,
exposing what is
hard to see,
but is it not Love
that gives Strength
to Truth,
giving Voice to the
Authentic Self –
does it not take Courage
to look in the mirror
and see what is reflected
back to You?

So use your Voice
to speak of Love.
Open your eyes
to look for Truth.
Do not be afraid
to peer into the
dark,
does darkness only exist
in the absence of Light?

Shine your Light
so All can see.
Expose the Truth
that rises up
to the Light.
Love Is the energy
that can transmute
All,
for is not All
looking for Love?

And as All Is One,
when you Love One,
do you not Love All?

Shine your Light.
Let Love Heal.

With Love,
always,
with Love.

When you look out
and see a reflection
of a world that
does not appear
to make sense –
as You Are a
co-creater of
All That Is –
can you step up,
might you volunteer,
to make waves
as a Wave of Love?

As All is energy
and like energy
attracts like energy,
be aware of what
you focus on –
does not every experience
give you the experience
to choose Love
again and again?

The ripple effect
is very strong,
it can move mountains,
it can change
the landscape –
you can make
waves that are
big or small –
size doesn’t matter,
when You Are
a Wave of Love.

But a Wave of Love
begins with you –
it is not a reaction
to what you fear,
any dark abyss
is devoid of Light –
can you turn up yours,
can you shine bright?

If the ripple effect
of hurt and pain
is in need of a
new movement
in order to change,
can Waves of Love
not be felt
in an instant,
when you focus
and keep your eye,
your attention
on Love?

As a Wave of Love
will you not attract
any resonant energy
that echoes with Love –
Love Is Here
in everything –
you may be distracted,
you may be in pain,
but do not
Ripples of Love
begin to make waves?

When looking through
the looking glass,
do you not see
sparks of Light –
invite them in,
find them in You,
turn up your Light,
send out your
Waves of Love.

Love heals
all that
comes up
to be seen,
to be felt,
to be healed.

Be Strength.
Be Courage.
Be part of
a new beginning.
Begin Now.
Begin with a
Wave of Love.

When there are questions,
when there is friction,
when fingers point
from here to there –
is this not a perfect
time to question,
what stirs you up,
what is your reaction,
what may come up
for you to heal –
and might the healing
of One
help to heal
a collective Whole?

It may not feel good,
it may cause strife,
when you question
what you thought
was true –
when beliefs
crash into beliefs,
do not walls
come tumbling down –
do you not look
for a foundation,
something sturdy
to stand upon,
you can rearrange
the structure
that you think
brings structure
to your world –
but are you
not searching
for what is solid
enough to support
all that you are –
and is not
What You Are,
what you seek,
is it not Love?

When you strip away
the symbols,
the beliefs,
who is right
or wrong –
what do you
have in common,
with those you
cannot agree upon,
you can keep
building walls
that keep you
separate,
drawing a dividing
line –
or can you see
with Eyes of Love,
that at your core
you all want
the same?

As One of the Whole,
can you listen,
can you send
another Love –
turn up your Light,
be a beacon,
to help ease
pain and suffering –
yes, work for change,
but can Love
be the foundation
as you rebuild –
do you not sometimes need
to tear down
what can no longer
stand alone?

Is there not Strength
in unifying,
is there not growth
in a common cause –
can you search
deep inside
and find a
common cause for Love?
Can you look beyond
the structures of beliefs
that you are standing on –
can you find
where Love begins,
can you begin
with a Foundation of Love?

Is there not Peace,
is there not Strength,
when you stand
with Love?

Create.
Build.
With Love
may you
stand tall
and stand together
on the Foundation of Love.

Does it not take
greater strength
to ask for help,
to reach out –
in this life of
separation,
why do you feel
you need to
“go it alone”,
do all not grow
when one is lifted,
when you connect,
when you share –
is not the greatest Strength
experienced when you
work and play together?

Yes, it often takes
a common cause
or times when you
step outside
your “usual” lives,
can you step beyond
your comfort zones,
to let someone know
they are not alone –
can the common cause
be one of Love,
as you reach out your hand
or look with your heart –
can you see You,
in who stands
next to you?
Together.

Together you share
so much more
than what you think
are differences –
you may not agree
on everything,
but can you see
Love in humanity –
do not wait for
an invitation
or a catastrophic event,
can you Be Love now,
together?

When you get beyond
the “yours” and “mine”,
helping each other
to see the Light,
is there not comfort
when you share,
that the Love you seek
is everywhere –
does Love not grow,
is there not a bright
Light,
when you experience
the Love That You Are
in this life –
together?

Be a shining Light.
Let it connect
You to All.
As All Are Love,
how can you not
Be
Love
Together.
