That which exists,
Beyond
All of that
which appears apparent
Is it this,
Or is it that
Perhaps neither
Just beyond
Just that,
Just here
Being nothing
It is all
What is here;
Isn’t anymore
~ M. L Adams
Expressing life's journeys in writing and poetry
That which exists,
Beyond
All of that
which appears apparent
Is it this,
Or is it that
Perhaps neither
Just beyond
Just that,
Just here
Being nothing
It is all
What is here;
Isn’t anymore
~ M. L Adams
Moving all around
Where fire becomes water
All is here put out
~ M. L Adams
Falling in
Falling out
Not knowing where
Or who you are
So lost
Where once I was found
Here,
Never knowing
Existing
Flowing deeply
Being
Here;
Lost
Falling,
Falling
In the unknown
And here your gone;
Just gone
~ M. L Adams
At certain times in life we can reach a point where we feel powerless; powerless to that which is happening either directly to us or around us.
At these times however real it may feel, this feeling of powerlessness is an illusion.
We always have power
Why?
Because we always have choice – no matter what the situation or circumstance,
We have the most important choice
That of how we show up.
So how can we go from feeing powerless to being empowered
1.) In how we choose to be
2.) In how we choose to focus
3.) In what we choose to do
Ultimately it is the energy we choose to bring to any situation.
And this energy is the most powerful thing that we have – we choose what we bring to any circumstance and through doing so we create a ripple effect. We can choose the effect we wish to create and from here help those around us too.
With us all being energy, we are never powerless, we are creative beings, giving power to that which we choose through our own awareness. We all can make and create a difference within this world, starting with ourselves. We get to choose how, and in doing this we will influence others too.
Whether winter or summer
You still have a choice
Even though it may not feel that way,
You always have power
You always have a voice 💗
The most important thing to realise is our power lies within us, not outside of us. So if ever your feeling powerless, come back to this truth, it’s from here we create change in our lives to begin with. Know that it is always you who decides how you show up today, on what you choose to focus on and on the energy you wish to create for your life and those around you.
As Gandhi so famously stated;
“Be the change you wish to see in the world”
It starts with us. Create from within and stay in charge. 💗
Accept both the good and bad,
Without a reason
Without justification
Without trying to change it
Yet creating value from it,
Then you are free
💗
~ 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.
~ M. L Adams
We can often live in a place where we are are following patterns,
When we can just as easily in a split second choose to let go of this and make a new choice, to follow a new pattern.
This is the power of choice,
The power we all have from within.
Choose where you come from,
From a higher space of serving a higher cause,
For yourself and others,
Always in oneness ❤
~ M.L Adams
There’s no right or wrong, Only positions,
Where there’s a choice beyond this; Aim higher above,
In transcendence, non- attachment, With purpose in compassion
Coming from love, beauty, understanding
Seeing all as one; only in love
~ M.L Adams
