The Doorway...

Of all my experiences in this life... the one that I continue to return to and enjoy more with each passing time is the most simple of all experiences. I love to lie on the ground.

I love to lie on the ground and stare at the vast open space that is the sky. I lie there watching the clouds and sometimes the sky becomes so bright that I can barely stand to open my eyes. Even when they are closed, I can still feel the powerful presence of this space that surrounds me in all directions... This vibrational and encompassing sacred space. 

Lying on the ground and watching the sky is a completely different experience from standing and looking up. Each time that I lie down to the bare ground I feel this overwhelming sensation of succumbing my entire being to the soil below me... of resting my bones and being cradled by my nurturing mother, the Earth.  I feel as though I am some vulnerable creature that is exposing myself to the elements and the wild nature of this world, yet rather than being fearful of what could approach me I am accepting of all possibilities. I feel safe in my mothers arms.

I've begun to feel that it is becoming more increasingly important to me to make an effort to spend some time each day watching the sky. I think what captures me the most is the constant change, every single second looks different than the last and every day provides a completely new scene and experience.  The sky will never again look exactly the same as it did yesterday and never again will it look exactly the same as it does today. It's always changing effortlessly and constantly. Sometimes I just lay there smiling with tears streaming down my face at the absolute beauty of it all. How wondrous and magical that I am blessed to exist in this amazing Universe. 

I couldn't say that I believe in miracles because every moment feels like a pure miracle. I honestly feel this way... just watching an anthill could make me feel as though every little living parting of that ant hill is a complete miracle. It's all just life and it all just is.  It is absolutely amazing and I refuse to ever take it for granted and get lost in the sorrows of my own little life.  Once we realize that we are all connected... not only to every human being, but to EVERY THING... that's when we begin to feel a lot less lonely and see that our personal problems aren't quite as immense as we once thought them to be. Sure, it's easy to get caught up in that game with the ego, in fact, it can be difficult not to... but I think that's why I am so enamored and in complete awe with the sky. When I look at every thing I see "God", but to me... when I look to the sky it's like looking into the eyes of God. The doorway... When I walk through that door I am reminded of my place in this Universe and that it is more significant, powerful and lasting than my ego ever would allow me to believe... let alone to know.

So this is my encouragement to you...
Look up to the sky and if you have a moment then lay down too.
Breathe it all in and Love it all out.
Every single moment is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. How will you spend it?

We're all Stardust, baby.

OH! I just remembered something...
We're ALL made of stardust.
I'm a soul trapped within a body. My body is a vessel through which I experience this lifetime. There is NOTHING to fear. The power within my own mind is limitless. The possibilities are endless. It feels so great to REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE. I am another you & you are another me.

Whew, now it's MUCH easier to get on with the day. 

Grounded in the Sky...

It's been quite some time since I've visited this part of the web... but here I am again. 

I hope that all who follow this blog have enjoyed a beautiful summer, although it isn't quite over just yet.

My reasoning for my absence is that I've been tucked away in my little cottage planning something most beautiful and wondrous to share with others. What I am doing, although sometimes tiring, has been an adventure that has helped me in life with planning and organizing along with communicating with others.In the past few months I have met so many loving and giving people, who are willing to share this adventure with me and help in any way possible. 

I remember several years ago when I saw so much of the ugliness that is in the world. I lived in the city and where I had lived my entire life, seeing and eating the same things every day. Every where I went I encountered incredibly obese and dimwitted people. I felt like there was no one like Landon and I around, although we do make wonderful hermits.   But one day you realize, that if you exist and you think the way that you do then there must be other individuals out there like you. You begin to meet them and things begin to look up, there are others like you. The beauty of this is that more and more people are joining you every day. 

We are beginning to think on a universal level...more every moment.

I like to keep my feet on the ground and my head in the clouds.

Staying rooted to memories of the past and carrying on traditions, but thinking perhaps spiritually in a new light with a more open heart and mind. I am trying to be the change that I wish to see you in the world and I am also seeing the change I wish to see.

Don't get caught up in the ILLUSION of what is happening.

It is all happening right now, life is happening.

 Bringing you out of the clouds and back to ground...

I'd like to mention my current project, the Good Vibes Gathering. 

A free arts and music gathering on the land that I live on in Pine Mountain.

Enjoy the season!
