If you really look at the people in front of you… you’ll notice something that you didn’t see before. You’ll notice that in that person’s eyes there is a whole world inside of them. Almost like a galaxy right behind their eyes.

It’s easy to see the wonder in a baby’s eyes, because those little crazies will stare right into your soul and in that moment, you know. There’s a pause because the wonder of that little baby is so infinite. It exists beyond so much more than that moment itself. You can stare and you can see. It’s in every adult too.

It’s in all of us. When you really look, you can see. See the galaxy in them.

There’s a galaxy in you too. I think once you realize the vastness of not only just the human body, but the human mind, and then to even try and grasp the vastness of spirit is far too grand for words to express. Once you start to though, to see the wonder in every breath, in every movement, feel the gravity of every word, you’ll start to see the intention of everything all around you.

You’ll start to see the galaxy.

Imagine a place where every single thing you imagine can be real?

Guess what? That’s the truth! Your mind can imagine ANYTHING! Where you allow your mind to settle determines what you think and feel. That is your experience. You determine your experience constantly, every moment. Every negative emotion is your choice. Every positive thought is a choice too. It may not seem like it always, but that’s only because we see ourselves as these small, little beings. And physically, that may be true.

Infinitely true though, is spirit, is what is living inside of us. If we could see the vastness of us beings in every single moment, we wouldn’t get lost in another negative thought, because we’d know how much has been put into every single moment in front of us. We couldn’t get lost in thought, because we’d see how important, how every action, every word mattered so very much. There are two ways to live in this world.

One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” ― Albert Einstein

Welcome into the new season! What are you going to let live and die this season?

This is the first article I am writing based upon a Google Trend Search. Just being honest with you out the gate.

The first day of Spring… It means flowers are coming out. The sun is staying here longer. Days are longer. Life is just moving on forward. Out of the supposed darkness of winter, we enter a time of more light. For any religious folks, we are coming up to Easter. The rising of Jesus. The rebirth of a death.

What does Spring mean for us though?

Waiting for the words to spill out from the universe through me and onto this post. Let’s say spring is a time of reveal. Of new blossoms and the death of the old. I’d gather that each season has it’s perfection to it. Spring, like each other change of season represents something new. It represents something changing.

So, I’ll ask myself today – what do I want to let live in my life and what do I want to let die? What parts of me or that which is around me is no longer breathing life into me? That would be what I can let go of. What parts of me nourish me so much and make me feel so alive and perfect? That is which I can nourish even more.

Now, what I am saying is taking a true inventory of yourself and accepting everything exactly as it is – then deciding what can be watered and what can be trimmed.

If you watch the life of a plant, you’ll see that leaves come and leaves go. They live and they die. The roots grow in a pot so dense that the plant needs a new, bigger pot to grow. You, too are a growing and thriving person who deserves to let old leaves fall and new ones come in. You deserve a bigger pot, sometimes!

You’re a perfect, spiritual person and you need to water yourself in all the ways you can. Now, I listened to Oprah do an interview for Soul Sunday and she interviews an incredible woman that says you will know you’re on the right path when you are no longer betraying yourself. When you don’t do or participate in anything that makes you feel that you are betraying yourself. Whether that be a person, a job, a friendship, anything really that makes you feel that you are betraying yourself.

No one can be there for you but you! So be there for you! Like in the video, there is no greater hurt than that of betraying yourself.

When you are on the right path, you’ll know! So keep seeking wise person! Let your leaves come and let them go! Believe in yourself, because why not? You are capable! You’re made up of stars – didn’t you know?

The veil is turning
It’s coming undone
In front of my face
Everything I had thought
That I planned
And sorted out carefully
It’s lifting
I can see again
Not sure if these lens
Or the others
Are the right ones to wear today
But it’s lifting
And I am returning
To everything
To every part of myself
The abandoned
The lost
And the wicked
The beautiful
The sacred
Forbidden
I’m waking up again
To life
Unfolding
And trust in that
In life
I am the current
And the wave that shakes the boat
I am the rain
And sky
And sun and moon
I am the jerk right in front of you
The angel saving the homeless woman
The anger explosion
The good
And the bad
I am that
And everything in between
I am lost and I am sick
I am sweet and I am juicy
I am love
And I am hate
I am the beggar
I am the rich
The married
And the unfit
I am only this
And all in between
Love is all that I see
Because absolutely
Nothing
And everything
Belongs to me

Somewhere down the line
We forgot
We forgot our magic powers
We are starting to see again
That thing, that fate that lives within me
We are starting to recognize
That anything we wish
Can indeed come true
We can make anything happen
The true and wonderful and blue
Everything you wish
It can come true
The veil it’s lifting
We are seeing
In the moments
The moments where we exist
In this place
We see
Our power
We fly
With the birds in the sky
We wish upon a star
Then see the star is in us
And we can grant any wish
We are the sky
See
Look
Pray
Now

You should understand now
That I am as passionate about leaving
As I am about staying

I am not sure what you want from me
It sure seems like you want me
But you won’t tell me what I want to hear
Am I just letting myself get walked all over

Where did all that pride go?
I let it float by somewhere in the past
Let it go by
Because it couldn’t last

And now I come to you prideless
With my heart in my hands
Offering it up to you

I wish you could tell me you feel it too
Tell me
Maybe you have in your own way
But your own way is so slow

Compared to my fire that I bring to your door step
I’d like to stay here with you
But these tears won’t stop coming
Since I don’t feel you right here

Tell me I’m the one
That’s what I need to hear
Or I could walk right back to where I came from
I might take that heart right back
If you don’t have the capacity
To take care of it

Please don’t give it back though
Please take care of it
And love me the way I know you can…
