When you feel joyous you are recognizing the God within you and celebrating life for He is the window to your soul. This does not mean because you live in joy that you are through growing or will never experience dark times, but that you are more spiritually aware and continue to seek the light within.
Life is a constant seeking, learning, loving experience, and if we let it, a blissful experience. Joy is a natural part of life. Don't hurry, so busy and pressured, through the daily grind that you deny yourself the small pleasures and joyous moments that are part of it.
Be aware, live attentively and with care that you recognize the small blessings of life. Try to be at one with God each day. Live in true consciousness and you will remember to laugh. God's world is full of light and delight.
We need not live solemnly as if this world is a test we need to pass to graduate. Lighten up and let your spirit soar. God does not begrudge us the time it takes to smell the roses. He delights in our awareness of the beautiful gifts He has created.
There is joy in learning and in experiences if we allow God into our heart and our spirit self in our activities of daily living. Then the outer circumstances can become inner joys and you will have an awareness of the true meaning in all life events.
We do not need to agonize over life, that is not rational living when we have the choice to allow joy to alter that existence. There is great power in the visualization of joy. It is a spiritual reality for all things that exist in the world first existed in spirit before they became physical and the spirit self knows this. Go in you.

Awareness
There is no such thing as an accident or coincidence but there is synchronicity. You create your life and you create what you choose to believe. Your decisions are choices you make. Because of the choices we make, there is cause and effect, balance and order and God's love.
There are different levels of awareness as we continue to grow spiritually, and our decisions become more conscious as we develop. We become aware of a greater reality and we renounce imagined limitations. When we go beyond we allow ourselves to exist beyond the physical and life becomes more real than ever before.
Allow yourself to evolve, to reach higher. Celebrate the soul-self in its advancement. Release all negativity for it has no place in your soul-consciousness. Cleanse yourself of all resentments. In your expanded consciousness you will be better able to recognize truth and come to a deeper understanding of all existence.
Truth propels growth. Love is the eternal power of the universe. Send love and receive love with an open heart and growth continues. Acknowledge your feelings, it is part of awareness. The purpose of all love is a greater awareness of God, for love comes from Him.
Be open and accepting of love in all its various ways and forms, to the very act of loving, and to all things. To the environment, animals, people, society, seclusion. It is all an open door to love. What is most essential is honest and truth in all relationships. For we are all part of the universe, of all-that-is. Accept and love in full awareness.

Honor your spirit
Honor your true spirit. Be comfortable in your skin. Do not pretend to be who or what you are not. You have chosen this lifetime, your present self, your family, and your existence for a purpose. Live it with insight not in falsehood.
What is it that you are here to accomplish, to learn, to experience? Be open to those you meet on the way, to the message they have to give. Even if it is one to control anger or jealousy. Embrace the lesson you find so that you may move on.
Don't be stuck in "I want to be" but realize "you are", always become something more. Never accept less than you are capable of achieving for you are only cheating yourself. If you can do better, do it. If you can be better, be it.
Love what you do and do what you love. That is authenticity. Be vulnerable, if not to others, to yourself. How else can you grow? Be the mirror that reflects your Divine self with love, not a distorted image.
Do not be a stranger to yourself. Seek the company of those whose values in life achieve high standards and morals. For we are known by the company we keep. We teach others through our example of living.
Seek soul friends for they will last a lifetime. Most important, be the friend you would like to have. Take time for others. Listen to what is said and not said. Speak from the heart. Be connected with your inner spirit as well as with others.
Reach out and make a difference in someone's life. Seek Divine guidance. Nature your higher maturation that is love, selflessness, generosity, and a sense of peace. Love yourself and your life, and always remember it is a gift.
Be worthy of it. All life is holy, treat it with respect. Treat yourself with kindness, not neglect for the Divine is within your being, and you are the guardian of its spirit, eternally connected in a bond of love, here and in the hereafter.

Life
Don't take the business of life too seriously for it is an illusion that can change in a moment. Life is what we experience on a minute-to-minute basis, and everyone sees things differently depending on their viewpoint.
What we have been taught we may learn is untrue. What is true now may change in reality tomorrow as circumstances change. Life is the knowledge we hold in the present, in the now. We may view our existence as wanting and someone in poverty would see it full of possibilities.
We are what we believe and it is unfortunate if we see it as limited. When we live in faith instead of fear, we look for, and thus find, opportunities. When blinded by fear we won't recognize them when they come calling our name but would turn and run for cover.
We create what we believe, and it manifests in our lives as reality. If we believe we have abundance and share, we will always find we have enough. If we live in love, we will have love. If we live in truth we will recognize it in our lives.
There is no need to try to control our lives for we are not in control, we are experiencing. Be excited about life for it is a constant discovery. Let your spirit be free and you will find a spiritual serenity, conscious awareness, and peace.
You will be in the light. Let love and light guide you on your journey and you will only know truth and joy. Life is a compost of the interactions of many. It is never solitary. Your responsibility is to act in full awareness at all times.
For when we do we benefit of the highest good in the universe, for everything that exists is connected and we are part of that oneness.

Slip Away
This is the last stage
it's so late in the game
nothing left to change
coming round again
nothing to explain
even if I could
there's nothing to gain
in letting these last days
just slowly slip away

Snow in April
I wake up early and the scene from my bedroom window, before I even rise, is of snow covered trees once again. The snow is still falling and apparently has done so, gently and steadily, all night.
There is at least six inches of snow on the railings and decks. The visibility is like looking through a thick fog out back, except the fog is falling snow. The mountain behind me is an outline of shapes, trees houses, poles.
The mountain beyond that is not visible at all. Out front on my deck, the roofs, trees, driveways, roads, and lines are coated as if with confectioner sugar and it is still steadily falling.
The birds are awake and at the feeder and I can hear the whoop whoop sound of the quail below and a deep chill penetrates my sweater and shirt. I spot the shape of a large bird flying through the mist.
At seven-thirty I went out with my trusty dustpan to clear a path to the patio table and to clear the table as well to put Pesky the squirrel's feeder on as he had hungrily come calling, leaving his tracks in the snow. As I was working snow began to come down harder, at which time there was no point in trying to clear the whole deck while the sky is still delivering its wet, white abundance.
By the time I quickly finished my hair and my sweater were quite soaked, as were my feet, still encased in slippers. Time to warm up.
The squirrel who lives across the road, and is terribly noisy has decided to fight for his right to raid the bird feeders. The squirrel that live on this side of the road have banned together to chase him away, running across the roof, knocking things over on the decks and screeching in squirrel talk.
It is so cold there are icicles in April, clinging to the trees and off the roof. I had to clean the back deck as by evening the snow still had not melted. It has been a good day staying in, keeping warm by the fire and enjoying nature's display. I'm blessed.
