Last Morning of 2010

this morning i was up at 4:30 to find a sliver of the moon and one bright star sitting in the heavens just above the water line.....it looked like a giant size children's picture book cover......right there in front of me in all its brightness......... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ as it drew near to sunrise the heavens began to change as the moon and star moved higher in the sky the horizon took on a hue of rosy pink that cast a pink shadow on the clouds which..in turn...cast a pink hue on the ocean's surface......so.......there it was ......an amazing picture.... moon and star in the night sky high above while day was breaking on the horizon.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the complete circle was present to me in that moment.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i was reminded of the fluid nature of all life...... ongoing.......ever changing......gentle movement from one moment to the next....... a wonder right here before my eyes......and even now......... as i type these words..... my eyes are set on the horizon as the sun appears..... it is a magnificent sight that i am privileged to observe in this moment... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ it feels so dream like.....no words can describe the beauty that cannot be held.....or captured.....but must be experienced in the moment ....for just as it appears..... it most surely fades into its next expression of being..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ so i see that this is how i can understand myself....... each moment of experience with myself is perfect and complete as i move into the next moment of expression...... i am learning how fluid life truly is..... simply being in the moment is an amazing thing..... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Self-Sustaining Leadership

To find yourself, you do that by looking within and allowing what is there to be. To be! You will never lead until you stop following, and you can only stop following when you start listening to your own thoughts and your own ideas and your own genius (and) your own purposeful good and put them into play, into Life, into Now. Then you have become a leader. And leaders, in that which is termed the God sense, they are masterful entities (that) are governed through Love. They could not be creators if they weren't. _______________________________________________________________ Learn to be leaders. Become involved in the Now, the Moment, the wondrous Now that uses your tomorrows to come as a result of all your yesterdays that must be lived now. When you exhibit one act of freedom, it will open unto you another pinnacle existence that has been far removed from anything you have ever lived. ________________________________________________________________ You learn Love by "being." That is Love. You must become Love in order to know what it means. ________________________________________________________________ Ponder these words I have given unto you. Ponder your relationship unto the Source and be a perfect reflectant on it. Ponder the creative thoughts and how they come. Ponder your life and how you live it. Are you being governed by time and enslaved by it? Are you enslaved by your society? If you do not have joy, speak from the Lord God of your Being and ask why, know why; I assure you the answer will manifest itself for you. When you have mastered the "why," then there is no more lacking and no more illusion. Then you can begin to live your life in a more purposeful being. So be it. _________________________________________________________________ (excerpt from Love Yourself Into Life, Ramtha, 1983)
