Note: I originally posted this with our community as the target audience, so this time I went in and added a preface to explain a little better. I've kept my spiritual and earthly lives separate, but now with this I am starting to publicly merge them. Please feel free to pass along either version :)

I wrote this on August 20, 2007 and actually have it online under another alias. I now feel that the people around me accept this message in one way or another, so now I can post it for my personal friends to read, without being criticized as I had been as a teen. As you all know me now, there should be no surprises as to who I am and how I try (do) live my life. I am a new age spiritualist, so I do not practice any specific religion. Rather, I look for goodness in all things, and from that manifest my own reality of love and peace. That is the way things should be, rather than put into a paradigm of fear based religion. Thanks for reading, I know it's a little long but if you make it through the end I know for sure you will feel a lot happier.

-When I speak of "God," this refers to the "source" from which all came. God is neither male nor female, yet both at the same time. The "God Source" is beyond all earthly religions, as he/she/it has only been presented in diluted and scattered forms throughout the recordings of earthly religion. Consider the God-Source like an elephant, where the Christians grab the tusk and describe it as smooth, where the Muslims grab the leg and describe it as coarse, and the Buddhists grab the tail and describe it as such. Most people are only offered a fragmented concept of what the Source really is, so people like myself try to bring all of the pieces together for all to share.

Life is all about balance. The journey for enlightenment is a long one but the most prized journey for all humans. There can be nothing greater than striving to make yourself better, so that the world too can follow in your example. Life is also about respect and dignity: Respect your mind, body, and spirit by loving yourself. Only after that is done will you truly be able to love and respect others.

We have a saying: "Namaste" - It means many things and can be used as a greeting or goodbye. Most generally, it means "I recognize the God-Source within you" and that, is a big deal ;)

I hope you enjoy:

As I wrote this from the heart, I only ask that you read through it with your heart. Disconnect mind and sit there as one big heart full of love and truth.

Do you want to have a wonderful day? Choose your words wisely, as it's as SIMPLE as that. It's up to you to make a CONSCIOUS decision: A CONTRACT WITH YOUR SOUL. The Divine spark that we were blessed with radiates within you. Your inner YOU, your inner DIVINITY filled with love, compassion, wisdom and mercy LONGS for you to break free of the shackles that we ALLOW ourselves to be bound by. We are to BE FREE. Spread your wings and fly!!!! Decide to and its that easy!!!!!!! This is a universal truth!!!!!! You must submit to the Source, God, with all that you are. Do this and you will fly higher than you could have ever imagined. Flying higher with family, as you were never truly alone and never will be again even though this was possibly a belief your entire earthly incarnation thus far. This is all certain, with absolute honesty I tell you this.

The word of the day: Resolve - 18 definitions on http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/resolve . "Resolve" has Divine meaning for me. It's that important enough to have 18 applications of use.
Resolve: noun

I live by several codes. Resolve, Loyalty and absolute Faith in God, Submission to His Will as revealed to me, Faith & courage in self, forgiveness of others - self - past, compassion, patience, selflessness. Live as virtuous as possible, for the physical world is just an illusion. Imagine the life of a pilgrim, where you shed all of your earthly possessions and just go on a journey to experience the Divine. To experience God. You don't have to walk a thousand miles barefoot to do it my friends. It's as easy as sitting there as you read this, and just relaxing enough to just float into your own essence and experience your Divinity. It's that easy, I promise. Ascension is simple, though the journey can seem to be hard at first as there are many earthly shackles to free ourselves from. Once you form your resolve, those shackles are destroyed even enough to where they truly were insignificant enough to completely forget them.

"There is nothing impossible to him who will try." is a quote by Alexander the Great that I have taped to my wall above the computer so that I always see it. I have bound my soul to the contract of never giving up especially if others are in need. I never give up, no matter what. Try, try, try harder. Think and even TRY THE IMPOSSIBLE. Use your DIVINE WILL to MAKE SURE that a solution is found. NEVER give up on ANYONE, or YOURSELF, or GOD! Never!! Failure is not an option, erase that word from your mind and spirit. The only word that is needed is GOD/LOVE.

Never, ever give up. We are servants of God's Will. Our purpose for existing is to see to it that His Will is realized in the present. We were created to be One with Him, with each other, and with ourselves. The only thing that we can do is take steps forward, for now in this present time it is impossible to take steps backwards, or even to the side from distractions. Ascension is an upwards spiral in which you can only go up. There is only such thing as progress. Each and every single day live your life more open in heart than the last. Form your resolve to never fail anyone, yourself, or God. Make an agreement with yourself to never waver in faith. Make your earthly weaknesses your earthly strengths. Make your earthly strengths even stronger. Bring about your True Form, your Divine essence is all there within your hearts. Each and every single one of us.

Do you want to have a life without conflict filled with happiness, LOVE, GOD, all that is TRUE? I know that if you are reading this, you do not choose a life of FEAR and PAIN. As humans in this present state of unrealized/unawakened Divine perfection, there is a need that not many actually admit. It is the need of SELF PITY, of worrying and feeling SORRY for one's self and for others. There is no need for such "3D" concepts such as these. Will them away and you will forget that they even existed.

The SOCIETY WE LIVE IN IS ASLEEP! They believe that they are awake, but they are not. They sleep in the "BLISS" of a low-vibrating existence that is FILLED with all of the atrocious things that beings do when they are not living as creations of the source. SOCIETY: THIS IS BRAINWASHING. THIS IS DECEPTION. THIS IS DARKNESS!

FEAR NOTHING, FOR WE ARE THE LIGHT of GOD!

This is far worse than the nationalist propaganda of previous "world wars," as even then those that heard or saw the messages were consciously experiencing them, and thus could at least determine whether they believed it or not. In the present, this is not enough as the masses are subconsciously brainwashed by those in society that prosper from the pain and fear of others.

It is up to US, to SAVE EVERYONE. To awaken humanity and bring about a united consciousness, one that lives LOVE. A big task indeed, but we all incarnated here fully knowing that we were absolutely capable of fulfilling our missions. Good thing for us, we're on the side of Light and Light NEVER submits to the darkness. Not in any way, shape or form. Really? Yeah, so that means that you literally have nothing to fear! Simple eh? Yeah it is simple, however the journey to get the self to truly accept the "new" and out with the "old" can be long and tough. It can seem like a burden at times, but also it can be fun and loving. See it as a blessing instead of a burden. Just Will it to be and it shall be.

So what now? A great majority of society is still asleep, though they are now starting to feel their hearts as they realize that there is a yearning in their hearts for something more. Their hearts resonate with the knowledge that there is a beautiful journey ahead of them. From the depths of their hearts they realize that there is more to life than what is shown before them. This is the first hint that we have of our true forms. Our true, and DIVINE forms. The hint is there, and awareness has increased. The forces that bind have been desperately trying to hold us down; but alas, as we have finally formed resolve and now it is time to to Love the world with all of our Divine hearts as this will free our loved ones from their subconscious prisons of the old society.

No longer will fear be used; for WE, THE ONES WHO WERE GIVEN THE HONOR OF INCARNATING INTO THIS LIFE, HERE AND NOW, will COUNTER this FEAR with TRUTH!

TRUTH = LOVE = LIGHT = GOD = ONE = ALL

TRUTH WILL SET US FREE. YOU KNOW IT, I KNOW IT, *they* know it - WE ALL KNOW IT.

That begs the question: What will YOU do, now that the time is right? Now that the GOOD NEWS is right before your eyes. Where is it you might ask? In this message? Sure I suppose you could say that. This is only a message from my heart to you, for you, though my heart is linked with yours as yours is with all of our hearts.

What will you do? Where are the answers? Who do you ask?

It's simple: OPEN your hearts. LET your heart BREATHE the fresh air. Let it FEEL the PURITY of ALL THAT IS! Live in the NOW, for the past is but a trial and error experience for us to come to THIS SPOT, HERE - NOW TODAY. What will you do now? It is our duty, being the ones that are here, now today in the present who are consciously aware of our mission, that we spread LOVE and LIGHT everywhere, so that those who feel that they are lost or without a reason to live, find HOPE. That hope lies within a UNITED CONSCIOUSNESS of DIVINE LOVE. That consciousness is US. We are one with the source, we are one with each other. we are one with the Self.

"Where do I go for the answers?" Some are blessed with guides who work with them consciously, while others are equally blessed and are just having being worked on by the Divine with their soul's approval. That is absolutely OK!. We are all equal beings created out of LOVE. Pure and ABSOLUTE LOVE that will NEVER leave you. We have found you!

But that didn't answer my question? Ah, yes! Where do I go for answers? Well, those that have guides will tell you, that very rarely are they given a straightforward answer. Instead, a question is answered with a riddle or another question. This I call the "fortune cookie runabout." I laugh when I think about it, as for years I couldn't stand not getting the answer straight up from them.

Why is everyone a fortune cookie? Well... the answer is simple my love. It is because: The best answers are the ones that you find yourself, from WITHIN yourself. The answers that we get from outside sources at times do not feel satisfactory to our souls. The point of ascension is to become ONE. If we can not find the answers we seek within our own hearts, then what are we doing? We know thats where Truth is kept. Our personal truth & universal truth: all that IS

So when you're told to find the answers yourself, or to look into the depths of your own heart, it is truly meant to be seen that way. By finding yourself, you will unlock memories and knowledge that you never thought was possible. Everything will change for you. Each day will be a rebirth. Enjoy your lives!! Just BE! Just BE LOVE!

Love and free will are the two most amazing blessings that could ever be given. We were created out of LOVE, and given the opportunity to choose Light or dark, to feel love or pain. What kind of easy choice is that you may ask, who would choose pain? Certainly NOT us, that I assure you :)

WILL your life to be loving, fun, and WITHOUT conflict? If you WILL it, it IS SO. There is NO "TRY", there is ONLY "DO."

It is our NATURAL RIGHT BY BIRTH to BE COMPLETE: HAPPY, LOVED, FREE OF ILLNESS and PAIN, and RADIATING WITH LIGHT!

We ARE NOT to experience FEAR: pain, anxiety, stress, hatred, anger, sadness, loneliness, insecurity, HUNGER.

For if [WHEN=NOW!] we are COMPLETE with THE DIVINE SOURCE, if we are ONE CONSCIOUSNESS of DIVINE LOVE THERE IS NO PAIN IN OUR LIVES. No fear! No pain! No disease!

FEAR NOTHING, you were created DIVINE out of the energy of LOVE. REMEMBER your TRUE FORM so that you may AWAKEN and realize that we are ALL God beings created EQUALLY from the source. Not one of us is better or worse than the other in any way, as we are all Divine creations :)

FILL your HEART with GOD and YOU WILL SEE THE LIGHT.

Seeing the Light with MIND is COMPLETELY different than SEEING THE LIGHT WITH HEART! Seeing it, FEELING IT, LIVING IT!

Each and every single day is a new day for us, a rebirth. So REJOICE! Wake up and DANCE first thing in the morning, as you FEEL WONDERFUL and COMPLETE in ways that just yesterday you could not comprehended. Allow yourself to open up, and each day will blow the previous day out of the water. Life is THAT marvelous my friends. So let us dance in the GOLDEN LIGHT of GOD from the first moment we wake, to the second we sleep, onwards to our dreams we shall continue dancing in the Golden Light.

Fear not even death my friends, for even if it were remotely possible for the darkness to harm you in any way, God would send an infinite number of Angelic Legions to your side to protect you, while healing you with love at the same time. He loves you THAT much, enough for Him to say that you have nothing to fear. Everything is OK, do not worry. Discover the Self, so that you may awaken the others.

A wise man once said:

“To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?”

Socrates (Ancient Greek Philosopher, 470 BC-399 BC)

I have lived my life in this manner. Close your eyes and visualize the following: I kneel down and bow my head as I extend my hand out to you. I ask you, "Will you join me, my brothers and sisters, in seeing to it that God's Will is realized?"

What is your answer, dearest ones? Answer with your heart, and let it resonate.

LIVE THE LIGHT. LIVE LOVE. LIVE GOD. LIVE YOU. JUST BE!

Thank you for being, dearest ones.

Always remember: fear not even death, for God and His Angels are by your side here now, in the present, as they shall be for all of eternity.

Namaste

From my heart to yours,
A Little Light That Shines

This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine,
Let it shine,
Let it shine.

So be it. UN UR'-A-Or'-Nam' OOR
