The Now !!!!!

“You can't change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying about the future”

What is reality? Is reality this moment or is it a moment not yet born. Is reality a moment that has past? Which one of these moments is reality? Well to be quite frank any of these moments can be our reality. If I were to sit and worry about events that have happened already then I will be living within those events whether they are still happening or not. If I were to sit and worry about the future, even though it isn’t here yet I will be living in that place which doesn’t even exist. There are very few people who know how to live in the present moment but yet the present moment is the moment which we are now in. It’s about preparing for the future or it’s about feeling regret for situations which are in our past. We waste our “now” moment worry about moments that aren’t even real. This makes us truly not within the grasps of the “now” when we do this to ourselves, when we waste the present moment worrying about the future or the past then our present moment becomes lost. We can’t do anything about a moment which isn’t here, there is nothing we can do to change the past, we can’t do anything about what will happen in the future ether but we can do something about the moment at hand. It’s been said that people don’t have control over there lives. This is where the victim mentality comes from; this is where it all begins. The secret to dropping the victim way of thinking and taking control is to come into the “now” moment and leave everything else a lone. We have total control over the “now” moment, the “now” moment really is all there is and all there ever will be. There is nothing else but “now” and we totally can control what occurs at this moment. Our past and our futures are intertwined with “now”. The past, present and future all exist in the now, everything that ever will be and ever is exist now. It is up to us to come into this moment and start living, it is up to us to come into this moment and take our lives in the directions which we wish it to go. It is time to come into the now, it is time for us to truly take control, it is time, now.

If I am a person who wants to gain means which I have never harnessed before what good is it for me to sit and think of the hard times which are in the past and which takes me away from where and who like to be? Its okay to recognize what the past was but it’s not necessary to keep on running thoughts of those times over and over in your mind as if they still exist if you want to change from that way of living. This is why in certain situations certain people never grow in the ways that they were intended to grow. They can’t leave the past in the past. There are people who’ve been poor all of their lives and they wish they were rich but yet, they identify with being poor. They run there poor pasts through there minds over and over again, “Oh I’m from a hard neighborhood, I’ve had a hard live and I wish life was better but it’s always been hard and it won’t get better.” Instead of taking steps towards a better life they sit and dwell on there hard past. There are people who’ve been overweight all of their lives and wish they were thin but instead of taking steps in the “now” and using these steps to achieve this goal they leave their minds in a place of being fat which dwells in the past. “Oh I’ve been fat all my life. I wish I was fit but I’ve just been fat for so long, I don’t see me ever being thin.” They are looking at there “fat” past, holding on to it and remaining in that place. Since they can’t see pass this fat past they will never come into the “now” moment and claim something more and better for themselves. Let’s take the “now” moment, take the needed steps and begin to live as we have always wished to live. Let’s take steps “now” in creating a better life. If you really want change to occur in life stop living in the past and stop worrying about the future. Now is the only moment that is real, put that in your mind and with that, you’ll be able to achieve anything. Do it now!! Now is the time and the “now” is yours to do as you please.

“Don’t count every hour in the day, make every hour in the day count.”

There it goes in a nutshell, simply live in the “now” and make these “now” moments count.

Blasphemy?

“This crime called blasphemy was invented by priests for the purpose of defending doctrines not able to take care of themselves”

In the mind dwells ideas which may not be yet discovered. Ideas that may bring certain understanding to the light, understandings that if not explored fully may never actually even see the light of day. These are ideas that just may not be written in the so called “holy books” that a good number of people name the word of God. Last night as I surfed through the internet I ran across this website which posted an article that spoke of the book series entitled “Conversations with God”. In this article some pastor warned people not to read any of the books. He called the whole series “blasphemy”. In the article he gave some examples of why he considered the series straight blasphemous. He spoke in particular of one of the books in the series which was written for teens. In this book it has a young woman whom is a lesbian and doesn’t know how to go about the whole situation. It then has God speaking, telling the young woman that she shouldn’t trouble herself over the lesbian thing. God tells her that nothing is wrong with her, as a matter of fact she was actually born a lesbian and she should just enjoy her life as she is. The article in the website has other examples that I’m not really going to go into because I feel with the one example my point on this can be seen.

Now in my opinion its okay if an individual wants to be of a particular religion or have a particular belief. If your religion or believe is important to you and it has helped you to become a better you then I condone it one hundred percent. A lot of times these believes and religions tend to bring a love out of us that we thought we didn’t have, they give us structure and reason, they make our lives worth while. All of these things are good in my humble opinion and if I see that a religion or belief system is helping out in a person’s life I will tell them to hold firm and never let it go. With that being said I also have something else to say or should I say I have a question to ask. Is it necessary for anybody to defend the fact that a baby is young? What will happen if I say a baby is old? Will that make the baby old or will the baby remain young as long as it is a baby? I ask this question because from here on out I may say some things that one may take in a way which seems like me trying to bring down a particular religion or believe or religion in general. Everything that I say or everything that I have ever said in my blog has been my humble opinions. They’ve not been something that I am going to deem the one and only gossip truth but for me and for good reason my opinions happen to be my truth. I’m not better then anyone else so never is my opinion, as I always say it is my simple, humble opinion. Because I realize that we all are One and that we all are of the same source I want nothing but happiness for all. No matter how it may come, this is what I want for all. This is all I hope for all and to me it is that easy because happiness is the most important thing in life.

I’m going to start off by saying that I know that I utter a lot of blasphemous things and quiet frankly I am proud of it. I’m an individual whom has seen a light like never before and within this light plenty of change has, does, and always will occur. I don’t identify with any organized religion because quiet frankly there isn’t one around that I agree with one hundred percent. I don’t want to live life in a contradictor way so I simply don’t identify with any of the religions around. What I believe in is Love and Happiness. I believe that happiness is the purpose of living and the only way to get to happiness is through love. I truly don’t even believe in “blasphemy” because I see that as a scare tactic. I see it as a way for a particular group of people to keep there particular religion or philosophy unchanged. I believe that they feel that the religion is what they are and if change occurs the religion will be lost. If change occurs within life and it doesn’t line up with there religion then there religion will fall and they will fall a long with it. They believe that the only right way is the way of there particular religion, they believe it’s they only gossip truth there is, they believe that the book which leads there religion is the only word of God and they believe that the way the book is written is the only way God speaks. These believes limit God, they have God in a single box which makes God very small. It’s like me walking around saying a statement in English and then someone else says the statement in Spanish. Then, because it isn’t said the way I say it I say that the statement doesn’t meant the same thing. As a matter of fact I call the statement a blasphemous way of speaking simply because it’s not said in the way that I say it. Even though the Spanish individual is in fact saying the same thing simply because he isn’t saying it like the person whom speaks English he must be wrong, right? New ideas come up all of the time, new ways of thinking, speaking and living, this is what and who we are, we are apart of our Source, we were made in the image of our Source and our Source is a creator. We make new discoveries all of the time just like this one right here “No species has been found in which homosexual behavior has not been shown to exist, with the exception of species that never have sex at all, such as sea urchins and aphis. Moreover, a part of the animal kingdom is hermaphroditic, truly bisexual. For them, homosexuality is not an issue.” This fact wasn’t known back when certain statements about homosexuality were written in the bible. Some religions tend to put woman under man, they say the woman are lower then man and in fact they should be lead by a man. They speak against a woman with a creative, free speaking spirit. There are so many outrageous things spoken in these religions that is isn’t funny. If you speak, say, or do anything other then what they deem right (what’s written in their “holy book” or what they say) you are dammed to hell. They say you have to do, believe, and perform certain task to get to God. A lot of them give us the biggest delusion of all. They say that God is something which is separate from us. The word religion is derived from a Latin word which means to bide back or connect back. In other words the purpose of original religions was to connect us back to God. I don’t believe it is necessary to be connected back to something which we never were or never could be a part from.


“There is only one blasphemy, and that is the refusal to experience joy.”
Paul Rudnick quotes

If we are going to label something as blasphemy, we should label it as a life with no joy in it. Since happiness is the most important thing in life living without happiness is the true blasphemy. So whether you are Christian, Jewish, Muslin, Jehovah Witness, Hindu, Buddhist, Agnostic, in to Atheism, Satanist, Pagan, in to Scientology, a kabbalist or anything else I’ve missed. Whether you are gay, straight, or a hermaphrodite, whether you are in to polygamy or monogamy it really doesn’t matter. Everyone will receive God’s (or Source or the universe, or whatever other words we use to describe it. It all means the same thing) love; it will rain on all of these people regardless; they all will receive that unconditional love which is of our Source. They all in fact are actually saying the same thing; they are just speaking different languages. They all are doing what they do to achieve happiness and happiness is the most important thing in life. WE ALL ARE ONE; BLESS THY BROTHER AND SISTER AS THY SELF AND WISH FOR THE BEST FOR THEM REGARDLESS OF THERE BELIEVES. Anything else would condone separation

If you believe in something as real and you know that it is real there is no point in defining it because it will be real regardless. There is no need to violently come at another or rip another person’s religion or beliefs down because you feel it goes against what you believe. In reality it doesn’t go against anything you may believe because all the both of you are trying to gain is happiness in the same. This goes for individuals like the pastor whom called “Conversations with God” blasphemy. The series of books are in my opinion very enlightening and have helped me out in my life a whole lot. Would this man begrudge me of that because I agree with the series and he doesn’t? Would someone begrudge another for them gaining happiness in ways which that person doesn’t? Why can’t we speak different languages and know that we all are saying the same things. Happiness is the key and the only way to happiness is love. All we need is love.

Conscious

“A life by choice is a life of conscious action. A life lived by chance is a life of unconscious reaction.” Conversations with God – Neale Donald Walsch

I’ve said this before and I am going to say it again. Nothing in life simply “happens” to us. That would be like saying there are actual victims that exist in this world. It may seem that saying that we choose everything which occurs to us would be a bit harsh because there are situations that arise which would be crazy for us to call a pond ourselves. Situations like being rapped, robbed or even murdered, these are situations which no one actually deserves to go through so why would someone call it a pond themselves? Well, this is why I like the quote which I am using today from the book “Conversations with God book two” because for what I know and what I’ve realized and witnessed over the years I am one hundred percent sure that everything which occurs in our lives are our choices and our responsible. Nothing happens without our allowing it to, nothing is apart from us so everything which occurs to us is something that we have happen. This is where the conscious comes in. This is where awareness comes in. This goes for more then just situations which are consider harsh; this goes for all and everything which does, will, and can occur. When simple “chance” occurs to us then we are in a state of unconsciousness. Everything that happens happens because of a decision we’ve made. Conscious living is living in a place which we choose; unconscious living is living in a place where we chance. If we call forth something then it will occur but we have to believe and know the power which we have in doing this. This thing that we call “God” or “Source” or “The universe” for that matter is inside of us. It is in us and of us and we have the same power that it has. It is our true being; this Source that we come from is truly who and what we are. Our ego is what tells us otherwise. It is the part of us which all fear comes from, everything that we woe comes from our egos, everything that brings us down comes from this part of us because it is the part the actually separates us from our Source. It tells us that we are basically just our name, what we accomplish and own. None of these things are our Source, our Source is within and so is the whole world which we supposedly live in. We don’t actually live in the world, the world lives in us. We create our world, we are the world which we create and if we remain conscious of what we are and who we are then the choices we make in life will always occur. It’s going to happens anyway, ether it is going to happen consciously or unconsciously point blank so we might as well make an effort to raise our conscious to a level which we actually are able to come together (as we should always because we all are One) and be the creators of our reality. We might as well make that choice instead of the latter.

Sure Looks Good To Me

“Deep in my mind I’m secure we can buy I wanna see the light before I die or I lie in an empty space,The darkness comes and I’ve been telling my soul And me and myself we turn around, we’re getting old, But the lightning crashing, foolish emotions. From the bruises and the beauty in this moment that we’re feeling, And I feel like I’m seeing the world inside of me But I can tell you that I know, it's getting easier to breathe,There’s a cold in the morning, endless equation. Of who’ve we've become, it’s a complex situation So live, love, life give love Live, love, life, give love Live, love, life, give love. It's who are we anyway. So don’t rain on my parade. Life’s too short to waste one day.I’m gonna risk it all, the freedom to fall.Yes it sure looks good to me” (Alicia Keys = Sure Looks Good To Me)

I’ve come to this place where a darkness threatens my existence but then I’ve seen what Alicia Keys talks about in her song “Sure Looks Good To me”. The waves did come crashing, the songs had stopped play, my fears did consume me and then I was tested. But then I saw I light, and that light’s name is love, I felt it in me and within that period I started to feel free. With silence to face, with growing emotions, with everything falling out of place I heard a voce from within. This voice was from life, this voice was my own. This is who I am. Everything is located deep within, the universe and all, its where all love dwells. So now that I’ve seen, who knows what the future wholes, but I am truly free, and it really is easier to breath, it really does look good to me. Beauty and bruises, are one in the same, they all show me what I am, and who I’m to become. And now that I know, my future’s not yet written, I already know, I have a choice to make. Is happiness or fear? Is it truth or delusions? Let’s see what this life which comes from within offers me. Let’s see.

The Kingdom Within

21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. (Luke 17:20-21)

To reach a place of uttered euphoria is to be within the grips of true love. Love is the heart of all creation and also love is within the hearts of all of us as well. To me God is the creator of all, God is the highest of the high, the highest point of conscience that can be reached and also God is everywhere. The place where God’s presence is most potent is in our hearts. God is in our hearts, in our bodies and flowing throughout our veins. We are created in the image of our creator. We are everything that our creator is and this creator does dwell within us. When I speak of God I don’t mean some man who is better then us that sits among the clouds and looks down on us. When I speak of heaven I don’t mean a place that we go to after we die if we are good boys and girls. I feel that the whole God sitting on a throne in heaven among the clouds is nothing but a bunch of fairytales. Last week I took a trip to Georgia to visit my family and in order to get there I had to ride in a plane. This plane took us so high; we were well above the clouds and guess what? I didn’t see any “god” there sitting and looking down. There’s nothing up there, that isn’t where God dwells, maybe Zeus but not God. God isn’t a single being; God really isn’t a being at all. God is our source, God is our strength; God is our truth, not some single being to praise. To reach God is to reach the truth of whom and what we really are. It is to know that we are not apart from God which means we aren’t apart from anything or anyone. We all come to this life experience by our own whim so that we may experience this life in the way that we choose to experience it. We all came with the Divine within us because we are as much apart of It as a wave is to the ocean. It is our Source, our Source energy is God and this Source is nothing but pure Love. Jesus was God; He was God because He knew who and what he was. He knew that He and God were one in the same; He knew that there truly is no difference between him and the creator and he knew what true Love was. He also knew that he was not apart from any of us ether. He and all of us are One, “On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you”. This is what Jesus said; when he speaks of believing in him he is not referring to believing in the simple, physical, fleshy individual whom was known as Jesus son of Joseph (Yeshua Ben Josef). He is referring to his True self, the self that is with all, in all, all of the time. There is no reward given to us for just dying. There is no heaven in the clouds waiting for us, there is nothing apart from us at all, all is already with us and it isn’t necessary to die to gain the kingdom of God (Heaven). It’s already a pond us, there is no trips to take, no fairytales to believe in because in all reality we are already there. We are in the Kingdom right now, the Kingdom is a pond us and within us. Not only are we a pond the Kingdom but we actually are the Kingdom. The delusion is the separation. Love is God, Love is the way, Love gives and doesn’t expect anything back in return Love is joy, Love is happiness, Love is who and what we are and Love is the Kingdom, just like us. All God wants from us is for us to be in a state of pure happiness. When we are happy, God is happy point blank. The purpose of life is to gain true, all out happiness and the way to do that is through love (Through Jesus, God, or what ever label you want to pin on it, it’s all the same thing). In Love dwells the Kingdom of God (happiness).

Love Is All You Need

There's nothing you can do that can't be done Nothing you can sing that can't be sung Nothing you can say, but you can learn how to play the game It's easy There's nothing you can make that can't be made No one you can save that can't be saved Nothing you can do, but you can learn how to be you in time It's easy All you need is love All you need is love All you need is love, love Love is all you need There's nothing you can know that can't be known Nothing you can see that isn't shown No where you can be, that isn't where you're meant to be It's easy All you need is love All you need is love All you need is love, love Love is all you need Love is all you need All you need is love, love Love is all you need (From the song "All You Need Is Love)

Because it's truly all we all need to achieve anything which our minds can conceive. Love isn't just a mere emotion, it's the HEART of all creation.

New Beginings

“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.”

Today is a new beginning for me, I am back from my well needed vacation and now it is time for me to put everything behind me that was troubling me and simply more towards the position which I wish to be in as in regards to my life. This day should be marked for all, it is simply the day of new beginnings, only pursue things that you wish to gain, pursue nothing else. Do nothing else except what you wish to be done. From here on out we all are going to be on the road to that heaven on earth which I see in all of our futures. Today is that new beginning, let’s begin a new.
