Surrender -To A New Way Of Being

“…Very little grows on jagged rock.

Be ground. Be crumbled.

So wildflowers will come up where you are.

You’ve been stoney for too many years.

Try something different. Surrender”

RUMI

Let Go! Not – give up. Surrender to what we have no control of.  Surrender to faith. Be humble. Let go of the ego, and all you think you can control. Work on you. 

Crumble in a way that makes the soil in you the most fertile, for new growth, for a new way of being.

Turn loose, and be grateful for whatever comes your way.

Just a thought…

Love and Light

We ought to do good to others as simply as a horse runs, or a bee makes honey, or a vine bears grapes season after season without thinking of the grapes it has borne. Marcus Aurelius

Look for ways to spread Love and Light.  Share Love by lifting others up. Say something kind and inspiring about a persons qualities. Smile, look people in the eye and say – thank you.  Make people you meet feel good about themselves. Tell people you know that you appreciate them.  If you see someone making positive changes in their life, encourage them to keep going, and help to strengthen their resolve. Be fully present for others. Give hugs, touch an arm, hold a hand, and let someone know you’re really there. Hold a door open – be of service. And, finally speak to their heart.

You know what a boost these acts have made in your own life…do it yourself – Spread Love and Light!

True Self

Be content to seem what you really are. – Marcus Aurelius

The divine in you – Your own true self – Who are you underneath the masks of the roles that you play, underneath the perceptions of others, who’s influence affects even your own true self. We start believing these ideas that others have.  We start craving approval, seeking others perceptions of ourselves to be positive, and live from that outer place of influence. Our goal should be to be in tune with our own inner nature. That place inside us that feels authentic and natural. The place that makes us feel complete.

The Divine in you shines. You are more. You are beautiful, brave, kind, compassionate. 

Be content to be what you REALLY are – YOUR FABULOUS!
