A Jolt of Reality or a Letter of Love - You choose!

Deep calls to deep!

 

 

I have been away from blogging for such a long time, for so many different reasons and none of them matter. During my absence Blogger has made some very definite improvements upon its service and I was thrilled to see that they now make it very easy for the authors to track the amount of individuals who are reading the blog. As I became aware of the number of readers, I was jolted once again into a deeper sense of responsibility for my written as well as my spoken word.



You know my name, and you probably know what I do for a living. Some of you know me personally, but in Truth, I am the Authority of all Good or I am the void of any good. Why because it all has to do with point of view and perspective. How you see me and how you see yourself determines your reality. This is why coaches practice the coaching skill of re-framing of reality with their clients all the time. Life is not determined by the details but by how we name the details, approve of them, disapprove of them. Often when one is challenged with a loved one or with a situation, I will say to them: Stop objecting to them or to it because as we object to someone or something we create the rub that causes the pain.

So now that I know how many of you are reading my posts, I offer you this following letter - not from me, Michelle or my personality but from the non-local of me, the me that is Infinite and Eternal. May this letter touch your heart and your soul as Love calls to Love and Deep calls to Deep.

Dear Being of Love,

I see you. I see the all of you; your total beauty, your amazing strength, the compassionate love that you are and the healing Light that you bring to this world. Yes, I see the Truth of you even when you don't see it yourself. I see your fullness, when you are feeling limited. I recognize your total health even while you are in pain and discomfort. I see you as fully prospered and expressed even as you struggle to pay your bills. I see you surrounded in love, love of self, love in relationships and the love of Spirit. This is your Truth. This is who you are.

You were born perfect and perfect you will always be. You were born deserving a full-measure of life's good. Please, please believe this; you are perfect as you are. You are not now or never will be limited to anything other than you willingness to accept your full measure of good. Close your eyes every day, go into the depth of your being, move past resistance, move past stories, move past fear and lack until you touch that place in you that has never been hurt, harmed or injured in any way. That core of your being which is your source of all good.

You are enough, worthy of all your heart's desires no matter what you have been told. Very simply, remember to declare: I accept my good and my greater good. I accept the full measure of my Divine Birthright, fully expressed in ways known and not known and I allow Love to be the guiding principle throughout my life. I am Love full expressed. This is my Truth, now.

So beautiful being, if this is acceptable to you, please leave a comment so I know you are listening and together we will partner for a more full YOU.

All my love,

Michelle



     
      


A Practice of Peace

Please join me in this prayer for peace.

First let us acknowledge that the only place where we can actually do our work is inside. So the prayer is for our inner peace which must by law demonstrate in our outer world. Let's do this together.

In truth there is one Order, one Love, one Power that activates all good in all places at all times simultaneously.  This good permeates my total being, as it infiltrates my thinking, my feeling and my body temple. This good raises my vibration until I am in total resonance with all good around me, with all good above me and with all good that moves and motivates me. This Good exists right where I am in all moments, in all places. I am always within its reach and celebrate this connection.


Choosing to be completely available to this One, on this day, I surrender to the call to be in service to all of human kind. I do this by allowing any and all places within my being where I might possibly house anger, upset, or resentment, I now allow love to wash over these places. Yes, mindfully and decidedly I choose to transcend any stories of whoa or victimhood and allow myself to be lifted to the heights of seeing this world in total peace and harmony as a reflection of peace and harmony within.

Let us know together and declare daily:

• No brother or sister raise an unkind hand to another.
• All of our One Spiritual Family eats to their full daily.
• All basic needs of food, shelter, and medical are within reach.
• Kindness runs rampant through the land.
• All religions respect all other religions without exception.
• We each learn to accept each other even without agreement.

And now, let's get real, the power for Peace lies within YOU. Look within practicing Radical Honesty, admit to where you are holding on to the old wounds and CHOOSE to let go and transcend the stories and pain of those wounds. You are charged to love yourself more each day and to love yourself unconditionally. This opens the door to the possibility of Peace.

You are in the world to heal the world.
You are the one we've been waiting for.
You hold the power for transformation.
You!
May bountiful blessings be your only reality!

With abundant love,
Michelle

Finding Inspiration where it is!

Adversity is the state in which man most becomes acquainted with himself.
John Wooden, Basketball Coach


I discovered this quote in a most unlikely place, in the movie, "Battleship"; a conversation between two brothers, one accomplished and one a total screw up. The truth of it rang way too familiar to me and I wish that I could not relate to it but alas, I can. I believe that my life has been interesting and depending upon the angle on which you are standing, your opinion will vary greatly.


My life has covered a variety of ground because I have known deep love and total rejection. I have experienced success and very familiar failure. I have thought of myself as a good, loving and compassionate woman and as a complete bitch. I can forgive like Gandhi but also hold onto some deep anger and resentment. Yes, I have been all over the place.


So in the quote, “Adversity is the state in which man most becomes acquainted with himself”, I can't argue with the fact that it was at moments of loss, despair, grief and total humiliation that the finest of me showed up. It was in those moments of despair that I was forced to reach deeper inside for tools and truths that would "save" my life at the necessary moment. What a wonderful thing to know that this resource is available and generous with its offerings. And I am certain that for each of us, we will name this resource differently and that is okay. Because it is all good all the way around.


The question I am left with is why I sometimes wait for that moment, why do I delay in reaching into that bag of tools where I find my comfort, inspiration and additional skills? In order to answer this I have to suppose a number of things. I suppose that one of the main reasons is this: complacency. This is not unusual especially in the world of metaphysics. You see, we are told to be grateful for everything, everything, everything, to appreciate our world exactly as it is and accept our lives as they are. I have taught this myself. Here is the problem, being appreciative for what is, is NOT a replacement for focusing on deep desires to live life full out, in full color, fully expressed and in total joy.


In order to create balance between the spiritual practice of gratitude and acceptance of what is while allowing ourselves to feel the desire for a more exciting, richer, joy filled and expanded life, we have to keep the fire up on our desire. One of the ways that I have been remembering that fire is by participating in a mastermind group and now by taking a class instead of teaching it on Prosperity. This way I remain the student with the mind of a learner and while being in this class, I have to keep myself at attention. My attention is how I keep focus on my intention and my intention is to live a fully expressed life. 


I am already very loving, accepting, and compassionate. I am already generous and willing to serve my family, my community and human kind in general but what I want to do more of is to serve as a living breathing example of being a FULLY EXPRESSED, FULLY PROSPERED WOMAN. I want to serve as this example to my sons, my family and my spiritual community especially since the truth is that the more I prosper the more I share of my prosperity and that is good all around.


So yes, it may be adversity that pushes and prods me at times but I choose to remain awake and aware and reach inside to recognize the opportunities before I am run over by them. Won't you join me? Won't you allow yourself to want for more, to allow for more, for total freedom of expression?!
