I so often wake up with a word, a thought, an idea, or another form of what I might refer to as my craziness; mostly because the words are random, really pop out at me, and then, naturally, won't leave until I have uncovered the message or truth. Today that word WAS "Uncover." It was as up, front, and centre as anything could be. And with that I take on the challenge, as an opportunity to Uncover all what is necessary to get to the Facts to Reveal the Truth. Sounds like a fun day is in store!
For me, this is a pretty significant ritual, for a lack of a better word, not just in the morning, but often throughout the day, and even in the middle of the night. Its up to me to accept and learn what is necessary for my journey. I do know that I am committed my goal each day in order to Release the BEST ME that I possibly can!
Some days, this is not so pretty, in fact, it can be downright ugly... but I have also learned that there is an acceptance that has come throughout the years. It can take all day, some days, to get to a certain space, to unlock the blocks and UNCOVER the breakthrough(s) that is necessary for my journey, which may then lead to a better, more calm, creative, nurturing and nourishing place. The messages are not always just for me, either. There are days that I have to get to a really calm space to discover who I need to share a message with.
So when a word such as UnCover sticks around in my brain, I know that there is an interesting day in store. What is important, I did determine today, is that in order to do all of this, I must be very conscious of what is on my mind; things, experiences, or stresses that I may be worrying about. Ahhhhh, Worry... the astronomical block. But then, I have also learned that worry can be helpful, as a reminder; a reminder to look closer at the issues that surround me or that come up throughout the day and seek to find what is necessary for me to grow through.
I do know, at every level of my mind, that I wasn't simply put here to work; that I arrived on that special day, so many years ago, with a soul's mission to accomplish. The truth is that we all were. Ohhh... now there it is. The uncovering of the truth. We all were. And YES, that did take me most of the day to arrive at. One of my 'gifts' is that I am here to work with others who are gifted, and in this exact, manner, to help others uncover the blocks that are keeping them from achieving their highest potential. Souls uniting. Souls coming together, for one another, not against.
A a bit of a pause here for a side note... my ex, whom I will always be friends with and indebted to for allowing me to be me, used to joke with me saying that when I died, he wanted my brain sent to the Smithsonian because he truly wanted to know what was going on up there! I do wear this statement with pride and see it as a gift. Also interesting to note, is that my mother would say that same thing about my father as he was so crazy wise. I take no credit for my wisdom... it was a gifted challenge. It's just there and often quite the process to uncover. Aside from all of that, one of my soul missions is assist those who are gifted to better understand their own journey, skills, and talents.
My greatest wish is that we were all open to and able to see that we are each unique and special in our own way; that we all have some important role to play in the course of our current journey; that we are all intertwined and connected. We are all in this together. That was the other phrase that ran throughout my mind all day today. We are all in this together. Same, great big ocean, beautiful green grass, incredible blue skies... many in different boats, of various sizes and shapes, but we are here, in some capacity to incite, inspire, aspire, what have you.... to teach, learn, and share. The past year has been stressful in so many ways. My personal struggles have been on a continuum. That's because I made the choice to seek and find the core sources. I can see now that it was the unknown, the hidden, the fear, that which I could not control, that was my greatest struggle. Yet, I do believe in much that the physical eyes cannot see. I very much believe that the Divine Spirit, that my personal Guides, are with me all time time, nudging, pointing, directing, creating chaos... really and yes, creating chaos to move me forward in any way that they see fit.
Last night before I fell to sleep, I made a decision that my January 2021 'Intention Set' is to TAKE my Power Back! To retrieve it from where it lay stagnant. To take it back from where I left it; it is mine after all. To do so, I had to look for it, remind myself, with a strength and conviction, along with the awareness that it was never lost. Just like the Hope that I had forgotten about. Once I felt my power; it was electrifying! The next step was to embrace what I, sometimes, did not even know that I had been giving away... but truth is, I had. I see now, that by giving pieces of me away, I was not allowing the fullness of my crazy creative talents, skills, and abilities to SHINE! So first step today, I Set My Intention to burst through the stress, the pain, sorrow, blindspots, lies, and manipulations and to be OVER that impulsive calamity. I know that this is the only way in which I would ever be able to uncover my very best! We all know inside out and backwards that worry gets us nowhere.
This comes from a place of Hope. Back to the Hope that I believed I had lost. I actually stopped using the word, completely. But what I finally came to know and realized is that it was never really lost, it was still in there, all covered up... perhaps a little bit drunk-like, or muddied over, but it was in there always. There is an amazing piece in my nighttime meditation that speaks of a Giant Buddha that is being moved to make way for a road. AS the Buddha is to be moved, it began to crack. So the monks decided to put it down and to allow it to settle until morning and try again then. One of the Buddha's awoke as was dawn was arising and noticed something shining from within the cracks. He began to chip away at the clay, and as he did so, the glow was so bright and beautiful, until he finally uncovered and discovered that there was a BUDDHA statue underneath made of PURE GOLD! Golden Bones.
To understand that this is true even if it appears that I had just passed through a metaphorical experience of death or currently enduring a perception of the failure of something else in my life. And, for me, this is exactly what transpired and brought me to here. Death and rebirth are related. Seen in this light, nothing truly dies, but rather changes from one ending directly into new beginnings. The Phoenix is constantly reinventing itself and rises up whole and new and even more powerful with every death it experiences. Perhaps no failure is involved. Perhaps it’s just time for a complete overhaul of circumstances and perceptions. For me, this is paramount. Because of my life seemingly spiraling out of control, I connected with a mentor. For this I am so grateful. When the student is ready.... yes, I have said this time and time again. I was ready and willing to learn what was necessary for me to move forward... to release the blocks that had held me down.
To empower my mind, consciously, upon awakening and then throughout the day. I have my Vision Board where it is visible upon awakening... as a reminder. I focus on it upon awakening and as I am stretching out the willies... all the excess.... all to make room for what the day has to offer me.
Surrender.
Surrender to the day, the moment, and every experience; to take every possible opportunity to LOVE. Surrender to the love. I had to be reminded that if it is love that I am seeking, then to release the need, the hold that it has on me and to just allow. Most importantly, I discovered was that it was fear that stood in my way.
Which brings me to my Affirmation for today:
"I choose LOVE. I allow my love to become the most POWERFUL force for Life! For Change! And let that begin with me." Much love and happiness to all, Lori-Lynn
