Boundaries and Limitations

Posted on by under developing awareness, seeking the middle way, Uncategorized

Spirit tells me that

Boundaries are around us and,

Limitations are within us, but

Neither boundaries nor limitations

Are static or rigid, unless

We choose to allow them

To be.

 

We can, If we will to, at least

To some extent, overcome

Personal boundaries and

Limitations.

 

We can, if we will to,

He tells me, push

Both our boundaries

And limitations,

To give ourselves

More flexibility and

More opportunities, if

We are willing to accept

The cost; responsibility.

The reward is increased

Satisfaction in creating

Our own life.

 

Yesterday’s Truth

Posted on by under developing awareness, seeking the middle way, Uncategorized

Spirit tells me that

We are, He and I,

As the two sides of one coin,

With the only difference being

That my side is heavier, so that,

With any given toss, or dispute,

The chances of my winning over

His ideas are slimmer than slim.

 

But, He tells me, I should never

Not challenge Him, but just try

To put less wasted energy

Into the process.

 

Believe what I must, but only

As long as I must, and then

Let go without regret, for

The possibly lifetimes of energy

That I have poured into

Its defence.

 

Release it gently, He tells me,

And live today’s truth, that may,

Tomorrow, also be,

Yesterday’s truth.

 

We are all Soul Mates

Posted on by under developing awareness, seeking the middle way, Uncategorized

Spirit tells me that

Whether or not I am aware

Of the fact, We are all

On a journey of discovery

Together, Not to transcend

What we are (trade ourselves

In for something else), but

To transform, or change,

What we are, into something

Better, and in the process,

Improve the conditions of

The world we live in, simply by

The way we choose to live

Our individual life.

 

We in Spirit share your perspective,

With you and through you.

The human body, whom

You inhabit, for a time,

And a purpose, is, as We are,

Spirit. You are not alone.

 

Share your perspective

 

Transcending the Physical

Posted on by under developing awareness, seeking the middle way, Uncategorized

Spirit tells me that

Transcending the physical does not

Require rejecting or neglecting

The physical aspects of our life.

 

Transcendence must necessarily

Include and expand from

The inside and then move

Beyond the boundaries of

Our physical and mental reality.

 

We are physical beings. We are also

Emotional, intellectual and

.Spiritual beings, all in one and,

All in one from a oneness

Perspective.

 

To neglect or abuse any one aspect

Of our being, is to neglect or abuse

Our being.

 

If we are to be neglected

And/or abused then let it be

By others, not by ourselves.

 

 

 

Not to be discouraged because

Posted on by under developing awareness, seeking the middle way, Uncategorized

Spirit tells me,

Gently, I hope, or do I only imagine

A sense of gentleness, not to be

Discouraged because I never seem

Able to be all that I want to be, or

To be able to do all that

I want to do, or to understand

All that I want to understand,

Because, He tells me,

None of us could ever be, do, or

Understand any more than

A small portion of all that is

Still waiting for us to do, and be,

And understand.  We each

Will always be becoming

More of what we now are, and

More aware of who and what

We are, spirit.

 

 

 

All that we can do is

Posted on by under Uncategorized

Spirit tells me that

All that we can do may never

Be enough to achieve what

We might have achieved if

We could do more, but that

All that we can do is

All that we can do, and

We will do all that we can

To serve Life by caring for

Ourselves and our community,

As if such caring was

A sacred duty, and

It is.
