The Soul Yearns

The soul yearns...

To be held! And yet, we are all held in the arms of God, whether we admit it not, see it or not, appreciate it or not. Every experience we are given is God tenderly acquiescing to our deepest desire to be complete, to be One, indeed to revel in the molecular fusion of Oneness. We are held even when we are alone. We are held even when we are in pain and no one knows. We are held even when we are ecstatic and we are held even when we have tuned God out.

To dance! The spirit calls out to us - there is no single day or experience that is more perfect for our dance than right Now. We don't need permission to dance! We don't need approval to move in our own particular and unique flowing waltz with the Universe. No one needs to come along and tell you it's ok to dance now, you just have to suck in the energy of life joyously and move.

To let go of fear! There is no moment more primed for letting go of fear than this very moment here and now. And there is no way to do, except to drop the fear. It is not something that only needs to happen once, it is something that needs to happen again and again and again. To reach to something higher than fear is the easiest way to drop it.

To serve! In the moment when you can recognize that you dance a particular and specific dance with all the other atoms in the Universe the ego must bow, and when the ego bows, you can truly serve selflessly. Serving with a proposed outcome is not selfless. The only way to be truly selfless is when the ego has taken its seat at the very back of the line. In this way, you may serve and know that God's got your back. In this way, you can give without fear of losing any part of yourself. In this way, you can love and love grows exponentially.

To be powerful beyond measure! "Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our greatest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure." At some point in life, you have to stop apologizing for Who You Are, and you have to stop waiting for permission to be Who You Are. At some point you have to acknowledge your power and lay it down on the alter of your service to the planet. "It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us." At some point you have to stop covering your light because you are afraid of what someone else might think and you have to remember that from the light of one flame, thousands, even millions of others can be lit. Why on earth would you try to hide the flame of your passion - or extinguish it? You don't need permission to be the biggest, greatest, most amazing person you can be.

Blessings and love.
