Expressing life's journeys in writing and poetry
Forgiveness is selective remembering- a conscious decision to focus on love and let the rest go.
The decision to let go of our grievances against other people is the decision to see ourselves as we truly are, because any darkness we let blind us to another’s perfection also blinds us to our own. ❤

As today is World photography day, I thought I’d share with you some of my favourite photographs of nature that i’ve taken over the last year, some of which you may have seen on here before.
Nature photography is something I delved in to after beginning to see the real beauty within it. All of nature holds within it a pure beauty that exists within us all;
An art in itself, captured with ease
To share and hold, with all the beauty it brings
I hope you enjoyed them as much as I do ❤ please let me know of your favourite too. Happy world photography day 🙂
Truth is a pathless road.
A road that is not a road.
It is total expression that has no before or after.
How can there be methods and systems by which to arrive at something that is living?
To that which is static, fixed, dead, there can be a way, a definite path but not to that which is living
~ Bruce Lee ~
I love you,
I love me
I forgive you,
I forgive me
I see you,
There in me
The veil has gone
The mirror is one
All that was;
Now cast aside
All that’s now;
Here shines so bright ❤
~ M.L Adams
Some are so easy to love
As even though you’ve seen their flaws,
Their heart shines so much brighter ❤
~ M.L Adams
I’ve been studying the course in miracles over the last few months and so far it’s been a really enlightening journey, a lot of my recent posts have come from this.
The following is my most recent reflections and I’ll be sharing more to come, I hope you find them useful and enjoy;
The miracle of creation
Everything is a miracle and one as part of creation,
Therefore the only appropriate response is gratitude.
To desire or strive out of a sense of fear, loss or lack is to see oneself as separate.
To struggle then is to be out of alignment with creation; which always unfolds in nature effortlessly.
Truth opens up and creates from the space of oneness; that is our truth and exists in allowing all to be as it is.
Unfolding moment by moment in accordance with all that is, our intention creates and grows as part of nature from within us.
There is no lack, this is only fear and all fear is illusion. Create only from a space of love, where all is real, one and forever unfolding. ❤
There are no more boundaries between us,
There never have been, nor will there ever be,
Now we see the truth in all that is,
That we are purely one;
We always have been
I am you and you are me
Forever here, we forever will be;
Here and one with all eternity
With no boundaries between us;
I can tell you; I simply love you,
I always have and I always will do ❤
~ M. L Adams
“Wake up o man, at least now, wake up. Consider this whole creation as a mere dream. This world is like a flower in bloom; as you watch it, it wilts right before your eyes. Why are you so attached to it?” ~ Brahmananda
Choose to see the truth,
Choose to see the reality
Underneath all you chose before;
What existed and always exists
The truth is always there,
Let go of the fear;
It’s not real
~ M. L Adams
One of the greatest gifts I have found on my journey so far is that of freedom, true inner freedom. I say gift because it is one we all have innately yet so many of us fail to acknowledge it, it can sometimes take a journey of realisation to do so.
This is what happened to me after too many years of living in a place where I’d felt trapped both inwardly and outwardly, now I know this truth and I see it very clearly so much so I had forgotten how so many don’t.
After having this recent insight I felt passionately about sharing it with you to always remember your freedom of choice. To remember you are innately free by the freedom to choose, no matter what. I really do believe it can be this simple, as simple as a choice. None of us are prisoners and even if you are in the external sense, you still have the freedom of choice in what you believe, and in what you perceive things to mean for you and your life.
Choice is our greatest gift and the biggest illusion is in believing that we do not have a choice.
I find it shocking now when I see what some people will accept and in effect to choose to suffer because they are in this illusion that they do not have a choice, when they really do. If you are suffering in a job, relationship or any circumstance you always have a choice. Always head towards your joy.
As Joseph Campbell stated;
Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where before there were only walls.
There is so much truth in his words and doors really do open up before you when you make a choice to follow your bliss.
When we only look externally or at the conditions we may be in, it can appear that we are trapped in some way, but there is always a choice even if only in how we choose to perceive it and this alone can change everything.
The greatest choice I believe is that of either love or fear, one on which everything can be based. In reality we are all free, we only need to choose it for it to be realised.
Your choices are the real gifts you contain;
To create a life of real beauty or pain.
