I Am

“I am here to serve.
I am here to inspire.
I am here to love.
I am here to live my truth.” 
~Deepak Chopra~

What do you choose to say after the words, “I Am?” It’s important to realize that your words are powerful. Many live in self-imposed prisons that their thoughts and words reinforce everyday.

Ask someone close to you to observe the words you say and give them permission to gently interrupt and bring your attention to anything negative or limiting. Awareness is the first step of transformation. It may be surprising to realize how often you reinforce old programming.

Empowerment is taking full responsibility for whatever unfolds in your experience. With a blend of strength and humility it becomes possible to set new intentions and consciously direct your energy in beautiful ways. Life will always reflect your beliefs and intentions back to you, and thus awareness begins the process of change.
It’s exciting to remember that no matter how much we have learned or how far we have come, that we have barely scratched the surface of what is possible. Your journey is sacred. You are sacred, and there are many levels waiting to be explored.

The Journey

“The only journey is the one within.”
~Rainer Maria Rilke~
We are on a journey of awakening. Life, in all its various expressions, provides the opportunity to evolve through experience and introspection. Our interactions provide endless opportunities for us to delve deeper into the Self, the I Am within.
There is a very human-based tendency to get lost in the drama and miss the lessons. Some can remain mired in the intensity of the story for years or even lifetimes, and yet, awakening will ultimately happen. The journey inward takes us to an expansive place of awareness, and our task is to bring that awareness into the world of form.
Love connects us to one another. As awakening masters, our role is simply to remove anything that blocks the flow of love. Our judgments, and the fear out of which they arise, are distractions. The only thing that truly matters is the energy we share with one another. See if you can purposely leave every interaction with a lingering spark of your beautiful light.
Bless the moments that bring you greater insight. Honor each path as sacred. Do your best, act with integrity and accept what is. You are loved.
