Loving yourself through forgiveness

One of the best ways to show yourself love and appreciation is to forgive. Forgive yourself for allowing someone to hurt you, forgive for believing lies, forgive for your weaknesses. We experience these hardships to learn and grow... not to keep ourselves from loving who we are. That's the beauty part of being human and having our emotions... we can learn and forgive. Forgiving ourselves allows our heart to heal and send out positive vibes into the world... and into our lives. We are amazing beings capable of loving ourselves and others.. so let's do it. We're not perfect .. and outside influences try to keep us from finding wholeness and serenity within ourselves... don't let it. Forgive... gain strength... and above all.. love.

Onward!

This week has been very eventful... and it's only Wednesday! :) There's definitely more to come! I just feel more excited and happy .. for no particular reason. So many things are happening and all these happenings are positive! So excited!! I've been dancing more and more to make sure that I express the excitement and freedom I've been feeling. I guess maybe that's a sign that I'm heading the right way. Making sure that your heart and your mind are open and full of love and positiveness.

Maybe it really has to do with making a more conscious effort on keeping myself and my surroundings happy and positive. And maybe also letting myself be happy and excited. All i know is... I can't wait until the fall. I definitely need to hike up a mountain... and just breathe. I guess it's really my heart letting go of all things that are negative. I found the holding negative thoughts, feelings and energy .. really starts to break down your soul and your genuine and loving nature. It's time to forgive and let go. Forgive those that's hurt you... forgive yourself for letting them... forgive yourself for doubting and for holding it in. It's ok. And just tell yourself... I love you. Share it!

LETS ALL GO ON A HIKE!

The path

Ever since I opened "Finding of the Third Eye," I've been trying my best to trust myself (not just my intuition... but my whole being) in every situation. I definitely want to become a more spiritual person. I feel that in understanding yourself .. you can tune into everything. I know it may not make much sense... probably because I'm trying to write on a more broad scale. As time goes on.. I'm sure it will make more sense. Patience.

I know I am seeking for more guidance. In seeking... I mean... listening.. watching... feeling. I'm not worried at all about walking this path. I know that in this spiritual path... tools and people will come to guide me. After all these years I've learned that experiences teach you lessons but there are people and tools that will guide you. Life will always take its course.. and in that course you will change. I want to make every effort that I can to ensure that my changes will be positive.. not only for myself but for everyone. It's funny how things, experiences and people can change you... without you even knowing. This is why I feel like becoming more spiritual is vital. I know myself therefore I AM myself. People will often make attempts to lure you into "group think"... but why?? Positive minds... will always find themselves. Positive thoughts protect us and keep us happy.


I guess all I'm really trying to say is that... I'm walking in the path to spirituality. I may not know what is ahead of me but ...my mind, my body and my soul gravitate towards it. (Whatever IT may be.) Seems like I just need to clear my mind and open my heart.

what are your ideals? in what do you really believe?

My ideal is just to be happy and content with who I am and what and who I have in my life. Having the privacy to learn things about myself and the nature.. but also having the luxury of being surrounded by those whom I love and cherish.

I believe that once love has found its way into your heart... it will always stay. Although life may give rise to events that may smother love's fire... it will never be put out. It may grow dim over time due to heartache and broken hearts... but with our minds we can make the fire burn stronger. Our minds remember the love that was once so strong and vibrant... this memory.. becomes a dream... which can then cycle back into reality. Our heart is strong... our mind is strong... together.. it makes us stronger ... it makes love shine.

what is your ambition in life and why?

to find my true self... and to help others in any way I can. To make sure that the imprint I leave on this Earth... is positive.

are you prepared to face the truth about ourselves and make a change? or are you liable to sit on both sides of the fence?

I'm prepared to face the truth.. slowly but surely. I understand that in order to make changes.. we must see the truth. The truth not only comes from the interpretations of others.. but from the mirror in front of us. Each wrinkle on our face tells stories of happiness and sadness... positive and negative... we must remember to "develop the negative into a positive picture".

There will be a time of uncertainty... this time of uncertainty will the location between both sides of the fence. Will this change be positive... or will it remain stagnant... is what I would ask myself at that crossroad.

what are your faults? what are your talents? what are we doing about them?

hate... negativity. I've enforced so much into my world ... I find it difficult at times to rid myself of this image of the past. I try to catch my words and my thoughts before it tears away at any positivity. Some days claim to be more difficult than some... but by submitting your pride... shows shame in the negative action has taken place.

what are the things which affect and worry you? just how important are they?

Gossip and other negative forces that may be too strong for me to handle. It's important to me to keep my mind away from such things so that they do not become my habits.

The Path of Spirituality and Oneness

As the title implies... I'm definitely on a path to oneness. It's challenging at times like when people almost run into your car when you have the right of way or when someone is constantly screaming at you for something out of your control. But I feel that a little meditation balances everything being thrown in my direction.

I've been cleansing my chakras at least twice a day; when I wake up and before I go to sleep. I found that things are very harmonious once this ritual has been performed. I usually put an instructional video on to help guide me through the medication.. I find it useful since I'm a beginner. At the end of the video the "instructor" says "remember that every time you encounter someone.. you are touching them with your energy. So make sure that your energy is always pure." Very true.

I must admit... at first I was scared of taking this path but I always knew that it would be an amazing one. I guess I was just scared of letting some things go.

To open my soul

A love that's always waiting and wanting, but is always disappointed by tomorrow's broken promises. Indecisiveness and insecurities fill my mind.

How can I step forward with the continuous ridicule and judgment of others?

Obstacles await at the foot of the door, constantly dreading to face first step. It's time to shut out the negative influences of my surroundings. Time to fill the air and space with appreciation and devotion. Time to remember the beauty and passion that our souls yearn. Time to give... time to answer the call. My mentors are waiting... it's time to open the door.

First step... the book of life...

waiting... wanting... always

Everyday seems like a babystep closer to my original self. I don't know what or when it happened, but it's as I'm not myself. It feels like I'm waiting for myself to return from a long vacation. Like I've lost a part of me... and I have no idea when I'll return. I know that change is necessary and a given, but it seems like I've lost myself in the midst of hardship. I still love myself... I just hope that my motivation and determination comes back. Maybe the hardships I overcame this year has taken most of my energy and strength.

I often ask myself, "What happened? Where's the passion? Where's the feeling? Where the love? Where the dedication... where's the love?" It seems like I've put a hold on my career and dreams again. Just when I thought I have passed the crossroads and have a definite path... I've found myself at the fork on the road again. All I know is that I still love it no matter how far away it seems.

No matter what... I know that I'll be back. I know that when I'm completely out of this funk... the force will be even stronger than before. I know where I want to be and how to get there... I know what I want and the sacrifices that come with it. I can't lose hope... I wont give up on my dreams. I'm the only one that will fully believe in myself .. and I'm the only one who can and WILL make my dreams into reality.
