Precision and Patience

“Patience is not sitting and waiting, it is foreseeing. It is looking at the thorn and seeing the rose, looking at the night and seeing the day. Lovers are patient and know that the moon needs time to become full.”

~Rumi~

No matter what you wish to create in your experience, it begins with a vision, dream or desire. The image sparks energy and enthusiasm into motion and leads us forward into new aspects of awakening. It’s important to be mindful about where you choose to place your focus. Baby steps spark miracles.

As we walk incrementally toward our goals, we discover that true power lies in consistency, precision and patience. Each action builds upon the next while one remains deeply rooted in the present moment. When an action is done well for its own sake, Presence transforms the work into a masterpiece.

Many need instant gratification and have not learned the joy of completion. There’s something powerful about seeing a body of work, intention and joy come together in ways that may be far more beautiful than that of the original vision. The purpose of inspiration is to send us on the road of discovery. From there, anything is possible.

You Are Beautiful

.
Passion inspires us to reach new heights. It demands vitality and vision and through it, we are transformed. Imagine how your life experience would change if your greatest passion was simply to awaken. Your definition of success would change. Your motivations would naturally align with spiritual enlightenment. You would discover that every moment offers an opportunity for expansion.
.
…And yet, along the way it can be easy to get distracted. Desire creeps in and the focus shifts to obtaining the right job, mate, home, title, fame, children, security. What began as a simple enthusiasm for life and joy becomes multi-layered desire that offers continuing highs and lows depending upon our attachment to outcomes. There’s nothing wrong with having preferences or goals; however, it’s important to remember that nothing is more important than your joy.
.
You are here to awaken. How you choose to do that is part of your unique journey. Remind yourself often to create a passionate life experience. Fill your life with positive, supportive people, approach each day as an adventure and nurture your soul. Your light can shine in such a way that simply being in your presence helps others to see more clearly. You are beautiful.

Relationships

The foundation of love is acceptance. Judgement is ego-driven, saying “You must change because I am uncomfortable.” Spiritual seekers transform discomfort or fear by working with the imbalance on the inner plane rather than immediately projecting outward. Once the imbalance is cleared, the other’s behavior may lessen or it will no longer elicit a reactive response. Relationships are the most transformative tool we can utilize on the path of awakening.

Healthy love offers support, patience, compassion and space. Ego-driven love demands that others must behave in a way that makes us feel whole. As we vacillate between the two states of being, we may discover aspects of ourselves that require our focus. Our relationships consistently provide opportunities to grow.

When we create harmony within our relationships, we begin to discover who we truly are in the presence of the other. Our multifaceted experience is transformed through exploration of friendships, partnership, lovers, parenting and active participation with our soul group.

Bring conscious presence into your relationships by giving those you love the space they need to grow and thrive. See your connection as a sacred, living expression of Divine love as you walk in beauty and honor the perfection of the journey.
