Fitting into Life

Image
 See if this resonates with you.  It's 2024, things are going well in my life, health is good, family is more  than I deserve, finances are okay, could be better but also could be worse, buay writing my third book, I  have a nice home with my beautiful wife, beautiful children, great daughter in law, son in law, and awesome grandchildren. Then why do I feel like I do not fit in to life?   Some friends don't get me or at least don't wantv to get me since "I've changed." The Universe said to me, 'you're looking at it all wrong. "Don't try to fit into life, have life fit into you!" Yes, I've changed, we all change...it's called an awakening  but it took time as awakenings often do,.  I'm evolving into what I was meant to be all along; an authentic person. If you ever feel that life is getting in your way, stop what you're doing and get in the way of life. Live life on your terms and nobody elses. It's your life and nobody...

Getting Comfortable with the Uncomfortable.

Image
  Where am I going? What is happening to me? I feel I'm on edge, but why? What journey am I on and what destination will I find when I get there?  This restlessness that I feel is overtaking my ability to function. I'm going in so many different  directions that I think I'm going insane. I feel detached, isolated, separated from others without a clue as to how to get back to where I use to be. Relax. You've opened your mind to thinking your way into a new you. This happens when you've been bumping your head into the ceiling for so long. Your new skin of discovery is pushing through the old way of conventional wisdom by removing the confines of your mind. You have emerged as one of the new breed of old souls. Sometimes it takes awhile but you're here. Time to get comfortable with the uncomfortable by getting to know your new self. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.

Fear of the Unknown

Image
 I've said it many times before, FEAR is the one emotion that rears it's ugly head multiple times a  day. We sometimes live our lives in fear, waiting for the next shoe to drop.   We wake up thinking ,"I'm going to lose my job, or something's going to happen to our kids." I'm not talking about intuition or empathic gifts or picking up negative vibrations and energy. It's the fear of the UNKNOWN.  We don't know what is going to happen nor do we know how to 'fix'it when it does. We feel helplessly suffocated by our fear of the unknown Yet, millions of people flock to the movies each week to see the latest horror movie.  That's fear we don't mind, because we can conrrol it by walking away from the theatre when the  movie is over or if we walk out because it was too scary. We go, knowing we're going to  be scared, so this is known to us when we decide to go to the movies. However, it's hard to find a solution to the unknown, unl...

The Secret World of a Dream Part 3- What do Dreams Mean?

Image
  WHAT DO DREAMS MEAN? The dream world is like walking through a clairvoyant forest. Here's why.  1) SYMBOLIC - Dreams are heavily symbolic...much like clairvoyance. Example- to see death of a  person, including us, doesn't necessarily mean someone is going to die. In most dreams, it means the end  of something. An idea, a path we're on, our career, relationships, etc. Remember, when something dies or is destroyed, something new is created, 2) WE SEE OURSELVES - People we see in our dreams are a reflection of ourselves. Situations in Because so much is going on in our lives, the subconscious brings those thoughts and situations to the  conscious level as a way of seeing ourselves in a different light and bein aware of who we need to be. 3)  UNRESOLVED CONFLICT-  This is the big one..dreams are full of unresolved conflicts that are buried in our subconscious. This means that for whatever reason, conflicts in our lives  have not yet been resolved. I...

The Secret World of a Dream Part 2- Why do we dream?

Image
  WHY DO WE DREAM?   The brain receives stimuli from many different sources all day long.   There are far too many stimuli for it to process., so The mind prioritizes the stimuli and makes you aware of those that need immediate attention,so that you may act accordingly.    The stimuli that you are not consciously aware of are nevertheless noted by the brain, but on a subconscious level   Furthermore, you feel emotions all day.  Some you acknowledge and some you repress, especially trauma, and it goes to the sub conscious level.  At night, while our body is asleep, the mind continues to work getting the signals, thousands of  stimuli and enotions to the conscious level. Since we're asleep. we cannot receive the signals at  a conscious level like we would normally do when we're awake, the only way for the brain to get these signals is to dream. It is the portal from the subconscious to the conscious. It is one of the closest...

The Secret World of a Dream Part 1- Does everbody dream?

DOES EVERYBODY DREAM? Dreams have been the topic of many a conversation since the beginning of humankind.   What do they mean? Can they tell us anything about the future? Does everyone dream? The questions are endless, and as part of my studies while on my way to a Doctoral in Philosophy and a PhD in Metaphysical Humanistic Sciences, I studied dream interpretation. Here's what I discovered.  Everybody dreams. We may push back on this, but it's true that everybody dreams no matter how  steadfast we are in our belief that we don't. Here's why everyone dreams. During the day, the brain receives a multitude of stimuli, such as emotions, situations, people, etc. and then prioritizes the ones that need immediate attention, in addition to the experiences that we face  that we denty them happening. .  At night the body rests, but the mind continues to work, such as processing everything that is in the subconscious. The only way to get the signals out of our subcons...

Without darkness, there is no faith.

Image
We have to have darkness in our lives, we can't live without it. It's a curious statement to say we need it, so let's  take a look at darkness. Darkness is a sense of something that is evil. .Darkness is sinister and unforgiving. It is sometimes the very thing that brings us to our knees without warning. It wreaks havoc with the people we love. Knowing all of this and knowing how it plays freely in our minds and daily lives,why do we need it?    Wouldn't we better off without it? Well, without darkness how would we recognize light?  Darkness was here first, then came light, which exposed darkness. so we could recognize the difference. Withour darkness, how would we know to stay close to those with light and to shy away from those  who are surrounded by evil?  How would we develop courage, bravery, strength, determination, resilence, etc. without darkness? However darkness does expose certain people who may need our help providing they will listen and may ev...
