Only Me; The November Writing Challenge

You write in your diary for months upon months and find solace in reading your own stuff. Then for some reason, when you put yourself in the shoes of some possible audience, self doubt ensues. “Why would anyone but me find this interesting?” Well.. why did You find it interesting? Aren’t there people you know personally who might find it interesting? And then someone suggests to you that you should write for the public eye. I believe in signs and this one is in the form of opportunity. Yet still, I manage my settings.

“Only me.”

Hopefully by the end of this month, I would’ve blogged myself into having the courage to change this setting. Maybe this is the best way to be raw. Then again, anything to convince myself that I’ve made the right choice. Ahh, the beauty of free will. We think there’s a right path and try to follow it; as if at the end somebody will confirm for you that you made the right decision. There is power in trusting yourself to do what is best for you. There is satisfaction in looking inward for acceptance and finding it. 

Although there is satisfaction in your words resonating with others, they must be Your words. If it is to come from Me, I want it to show. My words either come from a place of harmony within myself or as questions about how to find that harmony. I await the communion of souls who are on the same journey.

From Creation to Creator

 In the same way a man must leave the family he came from and go on to create the family that will come from him, is the same way beings on a spiritual path must leave their biological family that they came from and seek their spiritual family. To the families that have created us, we are its creation. And when you are a creation, it assumes a creator, a higher power. So, there is something that has come before you that is guiding what you become, what you are molded into. The presence of a creator assumes something has been created or is being created. We are usually either operating from the perspective of creation or creator. As a child, you are a creation; a living creation; a creator in training. You are being created to be able to create more things. And what are human beings of today creating? The ultimate goal of living things is survival . Are we creating things that sustain our ability to survive on this planet? The next goal of living things is to live . Are...

Little Big Lessons

Let's see if I still know how to do this. Thank you for your patience, if you've been wondering when next I was going to drop a lil sumn sumn. I wanted to wait until I had some profound thing to share but the lessons have been coming in like raindrops, so it's hard to keep up. Also, something being profound is usually in the eyes of the beholder. So maybe there'll be a nugget in there for you if need be. Ya girl is pregnant. And this is how I got here: So this journey been one long ass rollercoaster ride. If anything, I've been learning how to say less. So it's been hard to write because I like to explain things in detail but I also want to keep things short and sweet. This period has been about transformation, for me. I feel like it's been that for a lot of people as well. If you've felt stagnant for a long time, or you've been putting off something you think will be life changing, I think the discomfort with where you are has eith...

I Do

I was having an issue with a friend of mine when I remembered something I've read and seen countless times; whenever you're riled up about another person's actions, be sure you're not reacting to something you see in yourself. After much thought about the issue, I came to the conclusion that my friend, with all their wonderful intentions, was acting from a place of subconscious thoughts and pattern and their actions were more likely to reflect those than their intentions . There was a disconnect. I checked in with myself and realised I was guilty of the same thing. I tried my best to show that part of me compassion and I soon became a little more forgiving, understanding and patient with my friend. Conscious, deliberate action. That is the theme that came to me this morning and has stuck with me and I'm sure will ring in my mind throughout the course of the next few weeks. There are 4 phrases that I think are very helpful to refer to when looking to make cha...
