The world is full of it…

of anger,

anger is the rage and shame of having no power

anger too can take you to a place of change when it is truly right to be angry

but anger though is impulse, it is not a destination for each of us needs to

go beyond it, to leave its power behind and embrace the power of Love

anger seeks its own demise, its own transformation but can lose

its way to healing

look to the anger within you, see how it moulds your life

and how the anger of others influences your state of being ,

anger can be glamourous, even kind, anger can be generous and also blind

anger seeks its own destruction and understanding

it is the light of extreme dissatisfaction and the voice of fear

ONE:

Wisdom has a sadness of its own, pensive like a cello playing in a soft snow fall

Compassion holds a knowingness that looks into all things with an unblinking eye

Anger seeks to include everyone in its rage of ignorance and self-defeat,

Greed seeks solace in having all it can to bury the oncoming fear

Lust craves a chance at halting mortality and believes in the tempoary as real

Illumination lights only what needs to be illuminated for the awakening of the Self happens in the dark

Loss and learning go together, and love and liberation are good friends.

TWO:

Love was within us before we came and went, love was in the first cosmic form
and fell in the first rainfall, love was within us and will be when we forget that we once dwelt
upon the Earth, love was within the first rising spark of Wisdom and the clear sight of Compassion
and Love took the journey willingly into the dark matter and confusion of the temporal world in order
to evolve back to its own recognition again.

THREE:

The human race is a pathway in which Love plies its course,
a river that flows through time and space
creating diversity and matter, consciousness and place,
perception and awakening and the nature of living light
Love has made the chance for Life
when it embraced itself openly with Light,

for Love and Life make Light and from that all things are:

for in Light, Consciousness takes form

shrouding Love’s constant breath
and in that come the two eternal seasons, mortal life and mortal death
two great teachings of Love and Light
by which the Cosmos and Consciousness descend and create form

Have you ever thought to yourself or heard someone say,

” I thought I dealt with this!

I thought it was over and done with!

why did it take so long to deal with it..why Now?

I have wasted all the years, why couldn’t I have dealt with this years ago?’

Because change takes time, like true love, it takes the understanding of time

and the acceptance that change only comes when you are ready..

and often we may think we are ready, but deep within we are not

Change takes time, and time can only be a helper if you see time as agent of change

Time goes in cycles , not in a straight line..

Change goes in cycles, not in a straight line..

There are no straight lines within the growing psyche,

in the inner expression of spiritual change there always is to be found a cycle

of change and time, like two different coloured flowers on one slender plant

Time needs change to give meaning to humanity

and Change needs Time to grow and mature

We are all children of time and change

They are two of  twelve great mysteries that give humanity the impulse of evolution.

The world is in a panic because of the credit crunch and the fears of economic change and how that will affects millions of people just like you. Things are getting tough, yet when they do, it is important to stop and consider what you and your life are made of. How much fear have you bought into? Has your life been based on credit?

The credit crunch is not just financial, but it is emotional and spiritual too. There is not the emotional and spiritual basis to support these forces which are going into free-fall.

Each of us needs to address our own balance sheet and know what our currency is made of as we spend it in this life. The emotions we have and the life we seek are the currency and the value that we ascribe to what we want and need.

All money and credit is invisible, based upon a belief and both really do not exist.

When the belief and the trust in the belief runs out so does the credit.

In the everyday world this has dramatic consequences upon people’s lives.

However, if you are under the influence of the credit crunch and the emerging economic changes, and everyone will be, regardless of their wealth, stop and consider what money and having money means to you and whether you equate it with Life and well-being.

Pray to the divine within not to just assist you with money but in understanding that no one can own money, it passes on through us, it was one of the first creations of humanity and because of that it has gathered an independent primal force that powers its influence.

Be at peace with the pieces you have, put them together and they will show you how to make more. But be content first with where you are now.

When life throws us unexpected experiences and we feel confused and complain about our bad luck, when life gets to hard, then ask your self, ‘compared to what?’.

Comparison enables us to be clear minded, and to allow our intuitive wisdom and rational mind to inform us of our real life situation.

The smaller we allow our minds to be, the smaller our lives become because a small mind creates a small life.

Misfortune, bad luck, misunderstandings and continual problems can lose their addictive qualities if we just stop and ask of ourselves, ‘compared to what..’

We then start to realise that these are really opportunities for enormous well-being and growth, and that opportunity has many faces.

To look at each face clearly, we need to be able to identify and accept the opportunity offered to us, so regardless of the situation you find yourself, ask of yourself what is the opportunity behind the face. Every situation is a face, look behind the face, the appearance to the opportunity.

Each opportunity is a choice, a lesson and statement of what you most need to learn or recognise.

Count all the opportunities in your life, past and present, and try to understand the lessons and choices that were or are being offered to you.
