NOT BE TRANSFIXED

 

Let us not be transfixed.

            upon this moment forlorn,

with emotions and perceptions

            immersed in our malaise;

somber; sullen; like a thick glue

             of despair, adhering us to a vision

of outrageous fortune.

 

Instead, let us shed this dismal goo,

            this gloom we alone create from

mishandled thought, depressed

            interpretation, hazy logic; turning

our sights towards fresher vistas

            and more worthy considerations.

 

Here, now, let us defend our right

            for joy, love, peace, and happiness,

knowing this is the only true objective

            of living, being alive on this earth;

ready, fully, to continue with vigor,

energy, and belief in our ascent

            towards lasting magnificence.

WITH HEAD HELD HIGH

 

Today accept what is, with your whole heart,

realizing it could be no other way – allowing

it to be what it is, as you focus on living it well,

with a song in your heart, a smile on your face,

intent on finding joy and happiness even in a

world that appears gray.

 

Today accept what is, as you affirm what you

are – a thriving, dynamic, creative, industrious,

loving being who is not made more, or less,

by the surroundings, who realizes the truth

and worth of your key contribution to this venture

called life.

 

Today accept what is, with your head held high –

your back erect – your confidence fully evident

in your stance, allowing no one – no situation –

to steal your joy and zest for living – to convince

you that this is not your time for happiness –

for your heaven on earth.

PREPARE THE WAY

 

Let us do what must be done,

what needs doing now, as we bring

a quiet order to our existence,

preparing our space, our hearts,

and our minds for the change

that beckons and awaits our full attention.

 

Let us do the essential chores,

as we wait for the larger calling

where mind, and spirit, and heart connect

to sing an anthem of pure inspiration

propelled into action - when the mission

supersedes necessity – where duty

summons our complete focus and energy -

where joy is alive in the becoming.

 

Let us prepare the way and make ready

for this becoming – more than ever once

imagined, a purposeful, divine undertaking

to awake the spirit of pure joy, peace, love,

happiness in an authentic venture forward –

clearing the path and making way

for our intended heaven on earth.

In his masterpiece The Perennial Philosophy, Aldous

Huxley makes a statement that seems to succinctly

state the current spiritual condition of humankind

for me:

 

It is because we don't know Who we are, because

we are unaware that the Kingdom of Heaven is

within us, that we behave in the generally silly,

often insane, the sometimes criminal ways that

are so characteristically human. We are saved,

we are liberated and enlightened,  by perceiving

the hitherto unperceived good that is already

within us, by returning to our eternal Ground

and remaining where, without knowing it,

we have always been.

 

Every day we can take a  small but vital step

towards opening the door to our heaven on earth

by ensuring we focus on experiencing the peace,

love, joy, and happiness that surrounds us, waiting

for our attention.

 

Here is an Affirmative Thought to remind us. 

 

SIMPLE PLEASURES

 

Today let us realize the multitude

of possibilities to experience

peace, love, joy and happiness

from the simple pleasures of life –

from the small moments –

from the tender gestures –

from this opportunity for living.

 

Today let us embrace our own

potential for full and complete

living, where we embrace our own

becoming – connect with our true

purpose, allowing ourselves to live

without constraints or conditions.

 

Today let us shake off the malaise –

clearing our minds of any fears,

doubts, or worries and, step with

confidence, into the life

of our dreams – ablaze with the

passion of unharnessed living:

of perfect life alive.

DESIRES AND PASSIONS REVEALED

 

Let us reveal our desires and passions

    today, breaking free from our long

held expectations and considerations,

    and instead, take to the air, allowing

the true essence of our natures to

soar in full flight – wings outstretched

    sailing on our own infatuation.

 

Let us reveal our desires and passions

    today, quieting our egos sense of

impropriety and stern warnings to

    return to the appropriate – letting

the false roles we have assumed in

    this journey of life to fall away

like loose garments no longer

    serving a purpose.

 

Let us reveal our desires and passions

    today – living full – laughing loud –

totally engaged plucking the fruits of

    life from its abundant tree – made

tipsy from the nectar of living without

restraint – consumed in being just alive.

CELEBRATE, COMMEMORATE, RECOGNIZE

 

Let us celebrate the small victories today,

Let us commemorate all we have accomplished

to reach this point, to gain this perspective,

to seriously prepare us for the move forward,

to new heights, greater adventures, even more

dazzling undertakings – always thankful for

those who have aided our efforts along the way.

 

Let us observe and recognize the values and

faith that lights the way for our continued

intentions, the trust in divine good and

abundance, the attitude of perpetual

gratitude that summons further grace

and continued well-being, as we scale

ever-greater heights.

 2015 National Christmas Tree - Photo By G.

 

Is the true gift of Christmas one of possibility,

one of the potential to be so much more than

we now manifest in our often struggling human

race? The note below, originally published on

the blog Christmas of 2013, proclaims this to

be so, offering us three gifts, that if properly

received, would truly bring us all great joy.

 

THE THREE GIFTS

 

In this season of love and wonder, we are offered

the gift of joy – a moment to step from behind our

expectations and gaze at the limitless possibilities

of a world focused on peace and goodwill for all.

In this season of hope and promise, we are offered

the gift of renewal - an opportunity to leave behind

the shards of guilt, regret, or despair still piercing

our more worthy self-perception, enabling a fresh

start to flourish, find its stride, and take flight.

In this season of light and sound, we are offered

the gift of clear perception, a glimpse of the lasting

and loving connection between all living entities –

a chance to hum the jubilant melody of life in full

and everlasting harmony.

The note below titled Pilot Light is one of my

favorite Holiday messages. Perhaps, the true

meaning of enlightenment is not experiencing

“the light,” but instead, being the light itself.

Hopefully, this holiday season will find our lights,

both individually and collectively, shining bright.

 

THE PILOT LIGHT

 

Within every heart resides a flame -

a beacon conveying the essence of the

life it lights – a pilot light of passionate

striving – igniting with full vigor when

the path to our destined destination

finds our seeking souls - there and then

illuminating the world.

 

Perhaps, the very message of this festive

holiday season - centered on celebrating

the brightest light ever to exist - even now,

continuing to offer illumination in this often 

too dim world - a light reminding us of our 

true mission, to join the enlightened magic

by pursuing the very human nature needed 

to embolden our own leaping flames.

 

So let us not mistake the "whole" in the

true meaning of holy - reminding each

of us of our true intent - to share our

light with like-minded souls - and by

doing so, fan the flames of a brighter

world.

A JOY TO LIVE

 

Today focus your efforts, your heart and

soul on having fun, enjoying a break

from the routine to refresh and gain

a clearer perspective of what life needs

to be each day – a joy to live.

 

Today focus your efforts on smiling,

laughing, clapping your hands, hugging,

dancing and making all manner of mirth,

frolicking as you lose yourself in a

moment of pleasure enjoyed with friends.

 

Today focus your efforts on the happy you,

the joyous you, you as a wide-eyed child

ready to explore, discover, passionately

play with glee and open wonder – know this

is your birthright – your creative center

ready to be set free.
