Into the dark bones..
“Live authentically. Why would you continue to compromise something that’s beautiful to create something that is fake.”
-Steve Maraboli
Yes… and remember to teach and guide others to find the longing, authenticity and passion within, how to reach down into the dark bones and draw themselves up.
Like water deep in the well, the rope sometimes unravels a long way down.
But if we trust and reel in, hand over hand what is in the depths of that.. if we lift that weighted bucket to the surface, to the light, then we can truly be quenched.
Pssst.. Look around you..
Pssst..
Look around you..
Life is happening right this second, this moment.
This very moment right here, right now, is where you are actually ALIVE and living.
We spend so much time thinking and planning ahead that we sometimes don’t realise we have accidentally abandoned our current life and moved there.
Moved to a place that doesn’t have solid, earthy goodness filling you up and sweet, present, ecstatic joy slapping you in the face with a big happy kiss.
Planning ahead is important but be careful not to live there.
Live authentically
“The question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had means, time, influence and educational advantages; the question is what he will do with the things he has. The moment a man ceases to dream or to bemoan his lack of opportunities and resolutely looks his conditions in the face, and resolves to change them, he lays the corner-stone of a solid and honorable success.”
~ Hamilton Wright Mabie

~ J. Michael Straczynski

The good news, and the bad news
“Don't let anyone or any circumstance fool you into believing there are only dead ends and closed hearts in this world. Keep your heart, mind and eyes open to those that understand, appreciate and deserve the value you bring to the world.” ~ Lynika...
Don’t be too busy…
"Take time out to 'be' present in the world, right where you are, this moment, this precious breath. Notice the small things because in the end, you'll realise they were actually the big things..." ~ Lynika "Slow down and enjoy life. It’s not only the scenery...
