One with eternity

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 ❤

Life is flow

Life is flow,
A flight of joy
In rhythm, love and light,
With all that’s beautiful and good

Let go of all that no longer serves you,
Lift higher above
Then your life will take you;
Wherever you want to go

The Garden of Compassion

Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life’s search for love and wisdom.

Where you go from here

We can choose in any moment
To hold on or let go,
To give or to take;
Or to allow in defeat

We can choose in any moment,
Which way we want to go
In how to turn something around,
In what to say and what to sow

It is these choices now,
That give the power that we have
The way to shape our life from here,
A way to always come back

So no matter what, when or where,
You always have a choice in your hands,
Do you focus and move forward,
Or give in and fall back?

The only truth

I’ll love you no matter what you do,
It feels somehow I’m a part of you
That I can never let go of you
No matter how I try, its no use

At one point I thought I hated you,
So then I went and hurt you too
Even through all this I cant let go of you
I don’t know why, I just know its true

Your always there; I’ll always care for you
No matter where you are or what you do
There’s a part of me always there for you,
I know this to be the only truth

I wrote this over a year ago when I’d been hurt quiet badly from lies. The experience taught me many things, Initially it was a reminder of how hurtful lies can be but far more than that was how powerful love can be to overcome it.

Today has been a day in redefining this for me. I’m not certain if it’s right
or condemning lies in anyway, as many of us know how hurtful they can be but the causes can be far deeper than we know. Even though someone lies or even continues to lie, that may mean they need our love even more. Why does anyone lie after all? ❤

A Throwaway Culture for Relationships?

Throwaway culture

Our world is becoming more fast paced by the minute and it seems along with the consumerist culture of products and pleasures, that people and relationships are being treated in this way more frequently too. In dating culture it has become very obvious, from how we can pick and choose someone based upon their appearance alone to how many just wont stick around with someone any more if they don’t quiet meet the checklist.

In some ways I think this may be a positive but it can also go too far. It can occur in friendships as well as relationships, I’ve recently had personal experience of this with such people and situations where after making one mistake or doing one thing that doesn’t meet their needs alone, they will just drop you like a ton of weight.

It is understandable if situations occur where someone goes too far, we need to be clear with them to not do the same again. However we are all only human and where is the depth and realness when people are marked off a checklist and treat like a consumer product. The deepest and best relationships come when we truly see the person and love and accept them just the same. This is how we can be with family and those closest to us, to have truly valuable lasting real-ationships, we need to see others as their whole self too. Unless of course we are happy with a surface relationship that has no passion, depth or bond.

Maybe products today are not made to last but as people we are not made to be thrown away, we are here to love and be loved as a whole and as we are. This is the kind of relationships I now seek, ones that are real, where others are themselves and I can be too. Because of this I know I too have to be vulnerable and drop my checklist, choosing to see anyone I know and meet as whole person worthy of love and acceptance no matter what.

As for the actual products in my life I always try to keep them as long as I can and recycle (but I am not so attached to them). The people that are in and come into our lives are not material objects but feeling beings, so in knowing this myself I choose to be open and receptive to this, to all the beauty in each person and not just someone who is there to tick my list. I would hope in this I can bring far more to others and that the relationships in my life will be far more real and enriching. As for the consumerists I’ll let them continue shopping 🙂

I’m curious to hear your thoughts on this too, have any of you experienced this or is it something you’ve noticed happening? Do you think it can be a positive at all or purely a negative for our relationships and in how we treat people?

Thank you for all your realness, loving and feedback as always 🙂

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
