Expressing life's journeys in writing and poetry
All is beautiful,
All is one
It’s all I’ve ever seen,
All I’ve ever known
I look so deeply
Far in to your eyes,
There I am lost;
Far beyond the skies
In to somewhere
Never known before,
Where all that ever is
Is completely one and whole
There it is ,
It’s there I see you
In all you ever do,
Here as all of you
Where all that ever was,
Is somehow not
And yet it is;
All at once
All is simply beautiful;
All is one ❤
~ M. L Adams
You are the dance
You are the stream,
You are the all;
In everything
Here and now
In all that is
All is one,
It’s everything
You can’t hold on,
Only flow
Here and now;
With all that is
Freedom is here,
In all it’s ways
As truth in all;
Here it is
The flow is you
The flow is me
It’s never gone;
All is here
Here and now,
As you are
See it here,
It’s all around
In beauty here,
The truth you are
All is here,
It always is
Love is here,
Love is truth
Breath right here;
Be as you ❤
~ M. L Adams
Inspired by the teachings of Alan Watts ❤
If you believe you can, you will
If you believe you can, you’ll see
If you believe you can and know you can,
Anything is possible
It’s always in your belief,
What do you believe is real,
What do you believe is possible.,
Then apply it with your will
Your limit is no limit;
Anything is possible
It’s only you that can get in the way,
So step in to that open space
You are unstoppable
You know this is the truth
So find a way and make it real;
Make all your dreams come true
Your time has come here now,
Your rhythm is so sound,
Feel it in your soul; know your flow,
There’s nothing else to find
Trust you’ll know the way,
Then find it you sure will
Believe you can, know you can,
You are the unstoppable you!
~ M. L Adams
You are already enough
No matter what anyone says or does,
That is the truth 💗
~ M.L Adams
Whatever we look for we will see,
So if we think we don’t have enough that is what we’ll see, and if we think we’ve more than enough that is what we’ll see.
This then effects our whole perception to one where we’re coming from a place of either seeing limitations and suffering or abundance and gratitude. And it really is that simple as in what are we looking for, we get to choose which we see.
Where are you looking
From close up,
Or far back
Can you see the whole,
Or just one part
Are you seeing here,
Or what is not
What do you choose,
To be near or far?
To be one with all,
Or what is not
For all is here,
It always was
If you choose one part
Then you close it off,
For all you see;
Is what you focus on 💗
~ M.L Adams
“If you look for it externally you will never find it.
The answer always lies within.”
~ M. L Adams 💗
Discipline and focus allow for effective learning and adaptability in flow. If not for the discipline and structure then focus is scattered. There is then a lack of awareness and therefore inability to adapt, flow and grow efficiently in practice.
The discipline and structure should be aligned accordingly in order to learn the next step and movement. The adaptability that comes with it allows for necessary training and new things to be learnt with the awareness to apply where most appropriate.
If the ego or prior knowledge gets in the way then there is lack of awareness and an inability to adapt and learn effectively.
Without sufficient respect for the teacher/ mentor nothing can actually be learnt. Because of this the whole mind should be emptied and full awareness applied each and every time one is being taught.
The teachers knowledge is rightly far beyond what the student knows, therefore full awareness, discipline, respect and focus is always required.
Sidenotes
– Emptying your cup allows for full focus
– Self discipline is essential in order to learn and execute fully
– Without full focus one cannot learn and execute fully
– With full focus can adapt accordingly- when something is not working then have the awareness to change it. To be like water, adapt and flow.
– Discipline also shows respect to the art and teacher, also clearing the mind allowing for learning.
Each thing or being is created unique and whole as it is in its truth and oneness. Therefore to resist or reject any part of it in any moment of the journey is to reject the self and also the whole, resulting in a sense of disharmony.
How then to maintain some order and unity in the process of natural flow? As we are a thinking/ meaning creating being the only way I have truly found is through Faith. This I believe is because we can so often be caught up in having to do or be in a certain way, in a world of comparison or duality which in reality is just concepts. All is simply choice. Therefore we choose which way to follow and flow through the direction of our intention.
We are all created unique and will therefore follow a unique path, this is not necessarily set but directed through our own personal intention and experience and ultimately the meaning applied to it. With the capacity of higher consciousness and awareness then order can be both a natural flow and one with an intention applied to it along with Faith.
Without Faith, disunity and resistance can occur. With faith you apply your own internal creative ability in harmony with the external to create a natural flow towards your goal.
The faith then allows it to happen. Without either faith or some external order applied then things do still happen as a natural occurrence but are not directed towards a specific end as well as they may be otherwise. So it is then the blend of the two that create a natural harmony and balance towards achieving your goal.
“Direct intention and yet have faith you will be guided towards your goal, there you will flow as naturally as does occur with all nature in its growth.”
“Only one-mindedness is without confusion. A separated or divided mind must be confused, it is uncertain by definition. It has to be in conflict because it is out of accord with itself.” – ACIM
