Saturday morning thoughts… (2-18-12)
What makes me smile?
Just thinking about questions I’ve been asked and the one most often asked is, “What makes you smile so much and so big?” My answer…I just feel good, I enjoy people and ME.
I think the biggest (label) thing is my perspective of Life and not taking others perspective and making it mine. I don’t take some of my daily perspective and keep them as mine.
Working at Starbucks this time around has been a different experience. Starbucks has been a laboratory or my beliefs and changes, how I approach this Life that is mine.
I Love all and everything as a basic foundation. Under every experience I have, there is Love. No matter how or if I label the experience, I know there is Love supporting it. Oh, I don’t label things as much. It’s all Good! Sometime I have to look for the Good and take what Good there is in the experience but I always go for the Good…the highest Good.
Ms. Minerva: “There is a Good time in everything you do. Sometime it seems hard to find but it’s there, you have to open up and let it come.”
I don’t prove anything anymore. When I use to run around and try proving stuff to people, it drove me crazy. Even proving stuff to Curtis C was a crazy job. Because the proof is from our perspective and our perspective kept changing with the awareness we accept. I was comparing myself to others. When proving things to others, you have to use a lot of labels. Then one day I realize that I just need to do it…be it, whatever It is in Truth. If I have all the information that is available and I do the best I can do, where I am, then the job will be done. Will it be better or worst, bigger or smaller…I don’t know but it will be different and it all will be good, for the highest good. And if and when the others are working for and from the highest good, all things will fit in together as ONE.
Side note: I also took The Four Agreements as a guideline, my rail and support as I walk the paths of this journey: 1.) Be impeccable with your word 2.) Don’t take anything personally 3.) Don’t make assumptions 4.) Always do your best. I realize that if I do these four things at any and all levels of my Being, I am and will move forward.
Ms. Minerva: “To change is to grow, to grow is to change and to do that you just have to Be…who you truly are.”
I enjoy my Life where it is…Now! Yes, there are some days I don’t feel well, I don’t feel like doing. Money is not at the level I want, need it to be. I wake up and these thoughts are back in mind trying to find a place in me: I’m fat, I’m ugly, I don’t have any money, etc. Now, I know different. I don’t live in a fairy land…I see the facts and I Live the Truth!” I accept and work with my life where it is in the moment, the now, the presence knowing that in the next moment it will change and move me forward. I see what ‘s at hand but I don’t worry about if I will lose it, if it will come back or what if someone takes it, what if they don’t give it back…I just celebrate ME, my life where I Am now and take the action I am require to take for the next moment. My life might not look the way you think it should look and at time it might look the way I think it should look but its all perspective. I won’t live the life you think I should because I am not you. I don’t have your eyes or your experiences, all I have is mine. But I hear you and I do listen to what you have to say and it’s all apart of the process but the final choice…choices is for me, all of them. We are individuals working with and for the All as the One. We bring different things to the table and if we base us in Love, working for and in and as the highest Good that is what we will get at the level that we give it.
We are all One, the Creative Energy that we are, that we have all come from and go back too. We are the bright light that makes the shadows.
Ms. Minerva: “No matter how dark it seems, look for the light, head to that light and the closer you get to it – the brighter it shines. But you will find that you are that light that shines, reflecting back on you.”
So, I smile because I Am aware that: I Am Enough! Everything that I’ve ever required. Everything that I require Now, I’ve always had! How will I use It? Being aware, accepting, giving and receiving, forgiving, loving, knowing there in only One source. Staying in, Being in the moment, the now, the presence. I smile because my awareness is growing and I am sharing It! I am giving It, receiving It. If my smiling can spark a light in someone which in turn sparks a light in me…I Am going for It.
I smile because I Am Thankful, Great-ful and Blessed for the awareness, the Light! I celebrate every moment of who I Am, where I Am, as I Am…right now in this very moment, knowing that the next moment will be more light that moves me forward. I do see the facts, which are
Temporary but I Live the Truth, that is always. Base in Love which is abundant and unconditional; knowing that I have a power that is limitless; in and with an Intelligence that is Divine and take all the actions require, at the level of my Being…I move forward to the Great which create my Greatness. Being aware of this…I smile. I release my word as Law into a Law, a Law of yes – now – done and I smile in celebration of me and what I give and receive and it is GOOD..>
It is done…AND SO IT IS.
