SPRING FORWARD
by Rick
Since we have just set our clocks and watches ahead one hour, it seems like a good opportunity to examine time. We believe we are coming from the past and heading toward the future. In our linear minds, we view the past as set in place and the future indeterminate. This is not the truth! Now, before you begin any protestations, take a slow, deep breath and find your center!
We, of course, can not go back in time and change any of the “events” that have happened. However, we can most certainly go back and revisit those happenings and re-examine how we were affected by them. It is the emotional residue of those events that we hold inside us that is malleable. If we revisit events to ascertain what we have or can learn from them, then we can change the emotional gift we carry with us concerning the event. When you can alter “poor me” to “good for me”, the emotional present is more joyful and balanced.
As to the future, we do not have to live in “fear of the unknown”. As powerful and eternal creators, we can instead project into the future the emotional joy and balance that is ours as everything unfolds for us in a way consistent with our desires. The old means of “goal setting” was sufficient to a point, but because it places specific limitations on creation, it often brought incomplete or skewed results.
owever, if we understand that when our thoughts are also felt, we are projecting an open ended imagination that is more concerned with the “state of being”, rather than the realization of a specific goal. I realize this may be a little confusing to grasp, but I ask that you sit quietly and allow it to resonate with you.
It is like, don’t pray for rain, pray rain. See it, feel it, smell it…as if already done! Thank you for enjoying these thoughts and feelings.
Love and Light, Rick
EMPOWERMENT
February 18, 2005
At the peace of the moment, within the sanctity of silence, all is laid bare. All of the tumult around you falls away. It simple does not matter. All of your possessions and notoriety become only illusions. But in the serenity of self-awareness, self-responsibility, and total surrender are the truth and the peace that truly do pass understanding. In the Now, one recognizes that true power is having internal harmony, and allowing all else to be as it chooses. Empowerment seeks not outside approval or validation for it is not needed by the master of self. Find that glory within the infinite Now and you have discovered everything…that Spirit is in the silence, in all that you see and all that you see not. It is in all that you know, and in that you don’t remember. In the sounds you hear and the symphony all about to which you are, as yet, deaf. Breathe and inhale life and love unimaginable. This is the infinite flow that is with you always. You will not discover spiritual love and bliss in the search, but in knowing it is already found!

ALLOWANCE WITHIN
Allow your feelings to surface so you can look at them. Decide if they are to be lifted from you if they are the past. Perhaps you may want to take action with some of these feelings. The action may give you the gratification of acknowledgement of the service a feeling is giving you.
Allowing feelings to surface is freeing. When you suppress feelings, blockages can occur in your physicality. Your body is your vehicle of expression. Free the body of all blockages. The mechanics of spirit can much better work in an unblocked body.
Your center of your universe is your soul. It is housed within your heart. Access to creator is through this soul point. Allow open access and you will find that all universes will be open to you. This amazing world is now open for business. Allow your inner world to open to all possibilities. This is life, this is living.

THE ACT OF RELEASING
You may have noticed that many people are still holding on to their old patterns but notice that these patterns are no longer working for them. They continue to argue their old thought patterns. If you find that you fit into some of the old ways, then step back and look at what you are doing and why you are doing it. What causes you to continue on the old worn out roads when there are new roads to travel on? Find all that serves you not then let go of those thought patterns. If they come back to you means you have yet to let them go. Letting them go is forgetting that they were ever there. That is living in the moment. Injustice to you may be your perception. Do not hang on to your preconceived injustices. Look at the patterns you are producing. Can you see any gratification in holding on to what doesn’t serve you?
Put yourself in the drivers seat. You control all that you are, believe in, create. These times of change are chaotic. You choose your own way of life, of living. Do not get caught up in another’s drama. Place all fears in the hands of Creator and ask these fears to disappear (transmute). Do not look back. Your futures are glorious. Appreciate the love of Creator. You are a product of that love. |

THROUGH SHAREINA
SPIRITUAL SURRENDING
Surrender: To give up possession of; yield to another; to give up or abandon; to give oneself up.
Control: To regulate or direct; to regulate authority over.
We all know what surrender means. We have all done it at some time or another in our lives. Some do it more than others. We rarely do it by choice but we’ve usually done it when we felt helpless or hopeless, when we’ve seen no other option but to let go, or give up.
Control however is a different matter. We like control. We like to direct ourselves and others. We feel safe and secure when we are ‘in control’. We feel we have a handle on things, that we know what is best for ourselves and those around us. Control makes us feel confident. It doesn’t matter that it is a false sense of security, that it is an illusion. As long as we think we have it all together, that is all that matters to us.
“The need to control and the addictive quest for dominance is a universal quest aimed at avoiding the inner void. Because of its scope, and because it forms the underpinnings of all unhealthly addictions, it has won itself the label as the Master Addiction.”
Philip Kavanaugh ‘Magnificent Addiction’.
Control is based on fear. Surrender is based on trust. When we’ve reached the end of our ropes, when we feel totally beaten and helpless, we come to a point of having no choice but to trust and have faith.
Most people will say they have faith. Most use it as a noun in that faith means they are ‘religious’. Yet faith means complete trust or confidence, an unquestioning belief specifically in God. Therein lies the dichotomy. People have no problem stating that they have faith in God. Yet how many do you know have absolute faith that God will take care of them and knows what is best for them?
How many times do people override what they know is best for them? How many times do people go against what they know is God’s will? I’m sure they are not thinking of it that way, but when one goes against one’s intuitive self, they are basically saying, “I know you (God) know what’s best for me and I know you are trying to communicate that to me now, but I really don’t want to do that. I feel I know what is best and that is what I WILL do”. Ahh, good old WILL.
Can you imagine having that conversation with God? Sounds pretty arrogant if you ask me, but I myself had had a similar dialog many times in the past. Of course I didn’t use those exact words but the intent was the same. I surely must have felt I knew best otherwise why would I not listen to what was for my ‘highest good”?
Humans are conditioned to rely on themselves, after all that is what the ‘fall’ was all about. It was our disconnection from our memory of our true connection with the God Source.
Faith is what took the place of the memory. We were told by certain holy men, certain Masters that were on the Earth at any given time, that there was a God and that we were part of that grand connection. Yet, we had no real proof, no concrete information that confirmed that belief. So those that chose to believe that information took the words on faith. It wasn’t until Jesus was born on the planet, that people could see and experience the miracles that were to have come from this ‘God’. Jesus sacrificed his life for us to this God and more people were convinced through that process that there really was a being grander than themselves.
Now, here we are in the 21st century. We are inundated with more Light, more awareness. People are awakening more and more all over the planet. Many have experienced a personal connection to God’s love, either through miracles, answered prayers or from being ‘saved’ when they thought they were all alone.
We are in the process of Ascending. What more does it take to convince people that it is time to surrender the ego and let go of expectations? To be true co-creators we must surrender our fears, our control and yes our expectations. By doing this we create a void, and that void allows all that is in our highest good to flood in with abundance and love.
Are you ready to let go and change your life? Are you ready to surrender to the process of creating your new reality? Are you ready to become the Master that you truly are? And most importantly, are you ready to truly trust Father Mother God more than yourselves? I can speak from personal experience that once you do that, you will have truly stepped beyond the density of the 3rd Dimension to a life full of abundance, joy, wonderful surprises, instant manifestation, and a connection to God and the Universe that you have only dreamed of.
Are you ready to take that leap of faith???
