MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

LISTEN

The ground beneath you is unstable, threatening to collapse beneath you, but you have NO fear because you know that it NEEDS to for you to rise to the NEXT level of your life. Your eyes are OPEN to see the outstretched hands above you, knowing now that there ARE those who care and WANT to see you move FORWARD in your life, who want to walk WITH you through life, not because they want something from you, but because they SEE you and “get it”. They get WHO you are and understand where you have been, knowing where you are GOING, desiring to be a part of the NEW life that God is opening up and creating for you to step into.

You need no one to tell you what you want, because you suddenly REALIZED it, waking one morning to find that everything had CHANGED, that little voice in your soul whispering truths you had until now tried to deny to yourself, thinking that if you ignored them, they would go away and be less real, but now, knowing that they are NOT, nor wanting them to disappear, READY to allow them opportunity to GROW and FLOURISH in your life, the one you are stepping INTO.

You know now that you are NOT alone. You know now your HEART. You know now what you SEEK in your future. You know now that you are READY. This is YOUR time, to take a chance on something you would never have risked for before, to give yourself more room to GROW and OPEN your soul to the wonders He has waiting for you. There is no better time than NOW. LISTEN to that inner voice, ACCEPT and reach for those outstretched hands, and LET yourself live life the way you were always INTENDED to.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

TRUE TO YOUR FEELINGS

Sometimes the way we “feel” can be “wrong” – not wrong in the way we feel, but that the way we feel was not the intention of whatever made us feel this way. Confusing? Absolutely. Feelings ARE confusing. There is not always rhyme or reason for the way we feel. There is not always logic or common sense in the way our hearts wander. There is not always purpose to the emotion surging through our soul. There is only FEELING. And that feeling is what CONSUMES us.

We can embrace our feelings. We can push them aside and ignore them. Or we can deny their very existence. But, like an addiction, the more we deny that we have them, the stronger they become, and the stronger they become, like a pent up volcano, the more inevitable that they will eventually implode upon ourselves or explode out into the world. Implode or explode – both can cause massive destruction and consequences far beyond our reach.

Denial is the hiding place of either an ignorant or a coward, and sometimes by someone who is only trying to make the best of their lives and sees their feelings as a weakness. A weakness that can be turned against them, used as a weapon. But feelings are not always weakness, dependent on the feeling and the individual in question. Sometimes those powerful emotions can be a strength they never realized, a force beyond reckoning when accepted as being and released from their soul.

When something is so powerful that it can only GROW understand that there IS a reason, a purpose – maybe not now, but to be eventually seen and known. Sometimes when we accept in faith, instead of slowly destroying ourselves from the inside out, we learn more about OURSELVES and come to see the world in different light, infused with a deeper ability to “become”. Not denial, but ACCEPTANCE of inexplicable truths, moves us further along the path of enlightenment, because emotions are instinct.

2013 | Day 66: BEAUTIFUL


MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BEAUTIFUL

Beauty is not something PHYSICAL, even though it is and can be. Beauty is something in a SOUL, the smile of a heart, the whimsical wonderings of a curious consciousness. Beauty is something your HEART has to see to truly know and understand. It is something that has to be EXPERIENCED and it starts with YOU.

YOU have to recognize that you are beautiful. Not just realize it, but ACCEPT it. Your beautiful might not be anyone else’s kind of beautiful, but it is YOUR beautiful. You have to see the beauty that OTHERS see. You have to acknowledge that parts of you hold MORE than you think.

You ARE beautiful. SEE it. It might take time to accept it, but you NEED to. You cannot truly be everything that you are meant to and COULD be if you do not. For when you do, you OPEN your soul up to boundless opportunities you might never have had the courage to notice and go after before.

You have to know and understand and accept your special kind of beauty to know and understand and accept yourself. It’s not vanity to know this. It simply means looking at yourself through another’s eyes and making those eyes your OWN, seeing yourself with another heart’s perspective.

Everyone is beautiful in their own way. You see beauty in OTHERS. Start seeing it in YOURSELF.

2012 | Day 315: I AM ENOUGH


MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

I AM ENOUGH

The world will always entertain a thought process that seeks to enslave you, to try causing you to think that you need something or someone to “complete” you, wanting you to be reliant on others to survive, searching to capture souls to manipulate. But it is wrong, because you do NOT need anything or anyone else to be COMPLETE, and life strives to prove that by throwing obstacles in your way to get you to dig deep WITHIN YOURSELF, to bring forth the TRUE spirit of you.

Those who are not strong enough will not withstand the pressure, but those who are, even if they might never have thought it, will discover in such times their true STRENGTH and learn that they ARE ENOUGH. They will know that they are enough on their OWN, that they CAN stand alone and be ok, that standing alone IS ok, even if the world frowns upon it and seeks to take away their independence and freedom, to trap them in a cage it hopes they will settle in.

I AM ENOUGH on my own. I do NOT need anything or anyone else to complete me. I KNOW who and what I am and I am OK with that. I am COMFORTABLE in my own skin and need no one’s reassurance to stay that way. I am my OWN person, independent and free-spirited, always have been and always will be. I know what I want and will not accept anything LESS than I DESERVE. I CHOOSE to follow a path I cut for myself, whether the world “approves” or not, no matter how “alone” I may be on it.

That said I can WELCOME the presence of another, understanding that life seeks to create bonds between souls that will only STRENGTHEN who they are, both as individuals and together, bringing together like-minded souls who ADD a depth and richness to the other’s life that they cannot give themselves. This does not mean I am incomplete alone, only that I accept there ARE some things I can never give or experience by isolating myself.

I CAN now allow another into my world because I KNOW WHO I AM. Not everyone will be allowed in, rare few indeed, but those few will always be treasured for the INVALUABLE GIFTS they are, the BLESSINGS I realize He is bestowing on me. We may be able to be complete on our own, but we were not meant to WALK alone, and I know that now. I am enough on my own, but with another I can become so much MORE, as can they, desiring and seeking to unfold each soul to its full and complete potential.

2012 | Day 300: BEING DIFFERENT


MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BEING DIFFERENT

We are ALL born UNIQUE. We are ALL born different. Just not everyone sees that. Not everyone accepts their differences. They want to blend in, instead of standing out as they were MEANT to.

You were NOT created different to become like everyone else. You were created different to BE the difference in the lives of those who are blessed with your presence. You were intended to stand OUT and have a positive EFFECT as much as possible. You were designed with a PURPOSE, one unlike anyone else, that only YOU can fulfil.

The world will ALWAYS try to CHANGE you into something and someone who is NOT you. EMBRACE your differences and know that it is far better to be YOU than an imitation of anyone else. It is far better to be you than allow yourself to be LOST in the crowd of souls who brush who they are aside because it is not accepted. It is far better to stand alone in your TRUTH than to compromise who you are.

Realize that you ARE different. Understand that you are different for a REASON. EMBRACE your uniqueness, your personal quirks and traits, and strive to develop your gifts and abilities to their FULL potential. Stand TALL in the world and just be YOU. If you change, change for YOU, and only if it will make you BETTER than you are.
