Acceptance - Excerpt from Thank You Thursday, Volume 1

Be thankful this day for acceptance.

We live in a world created with some form of illusion. By this I mean people create a mental image of a subject, item, place or an idea with a certain levels of expectancy. It's this level of expectancy that creates the illusion. We as humans expect a certain level of life or create an illusion of certain levels of life from society's definition. When all that is around you, when all that you see is created through levels of expectancy nothing reigns true. Some people live lies to hide the true self, other people just plain hide from themselves and the truth. People around us create the level of expectancy, then we feel we have to live up to the illusion they created for us.

Once we acknowledge the illusion that stems from fear and disappointing others, we break free from the hold it has placed on us. We no longer live up to someone else's level of expectancy, but we now live of our truth. When we finally come into acceptance, we acknowledge ourselves for who we are as human beings in this world. Then everyone else will acceptance us for who we are without illusion.

Be thankful this day and everyday for your own personal truth.

Be thankful this day and everyday for what you believe extends into the energy you create.

Be thankful this day and everyday to manifest your truth and accept your worth as a human being.

Outside My Mirror

Stepping into a world of reflections

Different people

Different moods

Different attitudes

All consumed with the currency of beauty

What do you see

Can you see the sheer transparent thought image of self reflected in society or are we society’s creation

A celebrity status among the not so famous the virtual unknown

Aware of your existence could careless of the image portrayed

Let me remove the blindfold

Image is all that matters do you see what the world sees or what you see

What are you

Who are you

Living by someone else’s standards

Something obtained by what means there only to shed a stream of tears caught by a smile

Are you fresh young new

Covering up the comfortable image of true self

Why be ashamed

Be proud

Be honest

Be you

Stepping out the reflected world and shatter the glass of the past cause we all want the same thing

How do you feel

Do you know what you feel in this new reality of realization

The flow of you the cause of you to pause to conjure the cure of pure self twisted in elegance of divine creation

Shone through unconscious manifestation

Looking out to see in

Looking pass the familiar recognizing a deeper true renewed self outside the mirror

New Beginnings - Excerpt from Thank You Thursday, Volume 1

Be thankful this day for new beginnings.

Our lives are renewed daily when we wake, however we have the same or similar routines. It's in the routines where we feel safety, yet grow tired of the same schedule or daily habits. As a person we long for excitement or joy. This leads to seeking out external forms of excitement and joy. This ambitious seeking or rebellious change leads to momentary satisfaction. Thrill seeking sets in and continues to search for adrenaline high. Thrill seeking isn't necessary jumping off cliffs, it's whatever your desire is on an external level to find happiness, change, anything different, new and exciting. In the external or biological view of the new beginning, we are made to be renewed daily and every ten years. We are on a cycle of renewal, if we take care of ourselves, then we can live a life of longevity.

The cycle of renewal is not just tied to our bodies, it's tied to our spirit. As children, we are new to this world, but our spirits are not. We have to relearn what we already know and add the knowledge of this world to our library. As we grow older, each phase of life is a new beginning, and lesson learned to add to our growing mental data base. By the time some of us reach adulthood or even adolescence, we have come into our own realization of our purpose, talents and gifts. The new beginning starts with that realization and can extend over to over to us being awakened by talents, gifts, passions and purpose.

Another way to jump start a new beginning is forgiveness of self. This forgiveness cleanses the soul, the energy of our life. Once we have forgiven ourselves, a new door of joy has opened in your life. This joy and acceptance of it can lead to forgiveness of others and new opportunities, such as new friendships, a new job, even financial wealth. To have something new in your life should be welcomed and not feared. As the saying goes "Fear is the root of all evil", I say embrace the unknown, embrace your fear for there is a new joy and new beginnings waiting just for you.

Be thankful this day for routines in your life for they help to discover new ideas and habits.

Be thankful this day for our bodies and the will of the spirit to carry us daily.

Be thankful this day and everyday to embrace your fears for they bring new found joy!

New I Am

I am the sun shining brightly sharing my warmth and brilliance with all

I am the wind strong and free flowing

I am the water pure and blessed a ravage sea and soothing rain

I am the earth offering knowledge and wisdom

I am confidence comfortable in this skin my freedom another man’s prison

I am words blended to emotions causing convolutions on the mind

I am a thought provided a miner digging to the essence of wisdom

I am an inspiration glowing never to be diminished

I am the new beginning of change acceptance of the continuous journey

I am pain and retribution inflected simultaneously and unified

I am a new love for self where my heart belongs

I am a pair of wings lifting others from the trenches of life

I am remembering me how things use to be easier and worry free

I am here

I am not afraid yet curious

I am thankful for my lessons for my blessings for those who stood strong by me those who believed in me

I am a new understanding

I am a new life

I am a gift unwrapped

I am an energy bounded through life synergy

I am new

New I Am
