One of the many beautiful landscapes on journey to Scotland

Wow it’s my 100th Blog post on Journeys in Writing, I just can’t believe it, I’d really like to thank you all for being such great readers and supporters. I started this blog purely as a method to share and express insights through writing poetry and hopefully inspire you in some ways.

Life is a Journey and can change and adapt so much in such a short space of time but its up to us to steer to the way we want to go. You have all helped me do this in finding my way on my journey through supporting and in sharing all your wonderful inspiration too. Thank you.

Much has changed from the beginning to now and im sure it will throughout the next 100 posts. One thing I have really discovered is everything we experience is much better and richer when it is shared, we can all inspire each other in this way and I thank you all again for doing so too. I plan to release an e-book of inspirational poems as well as more insights in to my own journey very soon and will keep you posted on this.

I’d like to invite you all to join a webinar with the brilliant Vishen Lakhiani , who is one person who really inspires me because of his depth of being and the difference he is making throughout the world. Vishen will be leading the webinar and the first one is at 6pm this evening, there is also a chance to catch it at 7pm or at the same times tomorrow, so please sign up as soon as you can if you wish to experience it, it comes highly recommended 🙂 .

The webinar is called Consciousness Engineering and Vishen will talk you through his own very inspiring experience , the Consciousness engineering programme and a brilliant meditation experience, Please do sign up to experience it and enjoy.

Thank you all again

Every journey has value, gifts and lessons,
The journey is where true happiness lives
It cannot be sought or held, only lived,
Lifes for living, live for the journey.

What is within

What is within can never be lost
What is within the heart will always exist,
Heart & purpose exist as one
For this reason your purpose always continues on
In knowing your purpose and knowing your path
Wherever it leads; just be there to serve

~ M. L. Adams

Purest Soul

All open, all new
This beauty there in you
Your depth , your soul
The widest ocean, the deepest blue,
Such beauty there in you
The purest nature, the deepest soul
I see you, there as one
This pureness, this sparkling gold
Such wonder there in you
All around us; the purest soul

~ M.L. Adams

The Power of Kindness

ripples

How much of an effect can we really have?

I have always believed quiet strongly in the power of kindness but I must admit that recently I had become quiet disheartened about the level of effect this can really have and feeling despondent about the lack of response in my own efforts with others. I quickly then found myself being sucked in by negativity around me and the building up of it, no matter how I tried to change my focus this seemed to be taking over in all directions.

I found that when we feel powerless to change something this is when its hardest not to be taken over by the negativity, especially when its something that really matters to us. The war happening between Israel and Gaza at the moment is a perfect example. The sadness associated with it is something many of us are feeling right now and the question is, can we really do anything to help..?

In a world where we have many quick responses, it is something I think we have become accustomed to look for, yet the small actions we take can sometimes take years to have a full effect. Many of us want to help now and to make a big difference but I have realised that whatever little we can do and whatever ripples we can make is better than no ripple at all.

I have learnt through being on the receiving end of deep kindness, that the power it can have to completely change an outlook is one that can take someone that is ready to give up to someone that will do whatever it takes to continue.

It can be easy to get caught up in our own world and think we cant make a difference, but we do. That one smile, or one kind word or one pound donation can make the world of difference and I have rekindled my belief that the power of kindness is not limited at all, nor by any distance.

By knowing this and taking small actions to make a difference in anyway we can, each act create ripples that could continue way beyond us and even if we do not know about it we can be sure that a difference is made.

We only have to remember how those who have showed real kindness to ourselves and those we know have made a difference to us. It is not always about what we see, it’s sometimes the effect we do not see.

It also becomes not just about the effect but about the cause that re-awakens within us. Kindness in itself seems to act like a shield creating more joy for ourselves and those around us, the more kind acts we make the more effect we have, even when we do not see it.

I for one intend to use this shield of kindness far more and im eternally grateful to those who have shown great kindness to me when I needed it most. We all need kindness and to never forget to always be kind to yourself too.

Never forget this power you have within you
It costs nothing, yet creates something
 Something so Powerful, So Transformative, Something far more than the eyes can see

This power that exists within you 
Will transform the world, one at a time
 This power that is within you is so limitless,
Limitless to all those you reach every time

Believe you make a difference, That you really do,
Each little kind gesture,
Means all the world to those you reach out to

Oneness

All beauty exists here and now,
Beneath all form of shadow and doubt
Beneath all fear and false pretence
Lies this beauty in complete oneness
This truth we can easily forget,
It’s who we are at the core of everything
We lose this knowledge when we focus on gain,
In greed and falseness that only lead to pain,
We cover this truth with all we think is beauty
Forgetting all we really need already lies within
Here is the source, our real true selves
All the beauty we need; all the real wealth
~ M. L Adams

Let’s never forget all we really are ❤

 

Fall

Fall in to this moment
This beautiful moment alone,
Where all that was once is no more
Where all that was once difficult is now beautiful
Fall in to this moment, fall and let go,
Let go of all that was and will be,
Become all you really know
This moment is all there ever is,
In this moment we experience pure bliss
Fall again, fall, accept all that is,
Fall in to this moment, where all our possibilities exist
~ M.L Adams

Purpose

Purpose is focus,
All else is secondary
I will learn who to trust,
Who will come and who will go
In what is right, here and now,
From the depths of my soul,
Then all else will fall away;
Until I reach my ultimate goal

~ M.L.Adams

Your on the way

Express yourself, be yourself
Along the way you’ll find your real self
You’ll find your way then you’ll be again
As all that’s lost is found again

More will come to rise through you
When you open your heart and let it flow through
This time is not to hold you back,
But to push you forward to that place you dream about

~ M.L. Adams

Be Yourself

Be yourself, express who you are,
You know what works for you better than anyone else
Do what works, forget what doesn’t,
When others criticise just continue on

You know what works and you are on your way
You will reach the peak then others will say;
How did you do it , how did you make it?

Then you will know that the way was only to listen to you,
To truly follow your heart,
Being yourself in all you do

~ M.L.Adams

Being ourselves is when we truly feel in Flow and when we are at our best.
I want to thank you all for the encouragement in doing this and for doing the same too. Miranda ❤
