You Are Pure Potential

A true desire is not to have but to BE. We are whole creatures in Potential, and the true purpose of Desire is to unfold that Wholeness, to become what we can Be. As Goethe says, 'Desire is our presentiment of our inner abilities, and the forerunner of our ultimate accomplishments.'  ~Eric Butterworth~

Our Pure Potential is present and activated with our first breath as a newborn baby.  It doesn’t really matter how much money the parents have or how educated they appear to be or how much experience they have or anything else.  All of the babies in the nursery will have the same desire to walk and talk and to feed themselves and to become independent.  We give no thought to whether Susie will learn to walk or whether Joey will learn to talk.  My point is that the Pure Potential is evident and present in all human beings.  We all arrive with the same Pure Potential as the other babies just as sure as we arrive with blood traveling through our hearts and veins just like the other babies.  Pure Potential is the Master Plan for Humanity.  The first time we tried to walk we fell down.  The second time we tried to walk we fell down.  We all have the instinctual ability called Pure Potential.  When learning to walk, we began holding onto something and easing our way along our paths to individual mobility.  Then we got braver and tried walking a few steps without holding on and we probably fell again.  Each and every time, we got back up and tried again.   And guess what…we mastered our desire to walk and have been doing it ever since. 

So, what happens? When do we lose awareness of our ability to have a desire and to achieve that desire…like walking…or is the better question why don’t we cultivate our faith in our Pure Potential?  When and why are we introduced to and apparently become conditioned to and adapt to the theory that it is acceptable to stop trying to achieve our desire…why do we come to think that it is okay to quit or that we can’t possibly achieve what we desire?  When we had the desire to walk, we had that desire until we accomplished the task of walking. We never entertained the thought that we would just quit trying to walk because we kept falling down.  Maybe the key here is that as babies we do not have the ability to understand what quitting means and more importantly, our desire to be where Mama is depends on us being able to walk whether we realize and can think about it or not.  We innately know that we want to be with her and when she leaves the room and doesn’t take us with her…there’s but one way to get where she is…we learn to crawl and then to walk.  We all did it…each one of us.  Our Pure Potential was present and available so we just did it…we weren’t aware of our Pure Potential for walking, among other things, as babies, but nevertheless, we engaged our Pure Potential and we walked.  So, again, my question is what happens…I don’t understand why we are conditioned to think that we don’t have the ability to tap our Pure Potential for anything we desire??  It wasn’t like that in the beginning so what happens?  When and why do we loose sight of our Pure Potential and where does it go…

I’m just suggesting that we realize and consider our pure Potential again as it seems to have gotten lost in all of our thoughts…rationalized to the point of non-existence in our perception.  Many of us think that we can’t or that we’re not good enough or that it is impossible to have what we desire or a thousand other excuses for not moving forward to achieve our dreams…these thoughts are NONSENSE.  We have the opportunity to create our experience every day because we are thinking beings…that’s what we do.  The Truth is that we are all born with and continue to have the Pure Potential to create anything that we desire.  Maybe some of us just don’t know and maybe if we do know, we don’t know how to tap our Pure Potential.  I create the experiences of my life…I take full responsibility for what my life is or is not.  You have everything that you need and there are no excuses…the bottom line is that you either will or you won’t engage with your Pure Potential and as each day begins for you…that will be your choice.  You and I are no different really…we both want to be happy, to be loved, and to live our lives in the manner that creates the best happiness for us and those around us. The only one to thank at the end of the day for your experiences is you.   Will you say…I wish I could have or would have done whatever, but…and then you’ll give some excuse or will you say that you achieved your dreams and more?  Today is a new day…you will have to do more than just read this to find and engage with your Pure Potential…you will have to do your own research to find out how you can rediscover your Pure Potential.  Our website, Yourelevatedlife.com can help, if you’re seeking and interested.  Be sure to thank the Beloved for your breath and the ability to create your experiences and to LIVE up to your Birthright, which is your Pure Potential…and then get on with it.   What are you doing with the rest of your life…will you be LIVING it or will you continue to just exist?  NOW is the most perfect time to pursue your thoughts and to answer this question…Are you a reflection of your Pure Potential or not?  Wishing you Beautiful, Creative, Pure Potential days filled with Love, which is your Birthright and The Heart of the Matter.

The Beauty of a Woman

The sheer Beauty of a Woman is obvious when we view her...The Beloved magnificently created her with the ability to carry and nurture a human being both inside and outside of her body.  It is her Heart that presents the ability to Love Unconditionally.  If it were not for Woman…none of us would be here.  Loving Unconditionally is the greatest blessing there is…Life is our opportunity to be Loving. 

 

The Beauty of a Woman

Isn't in the clothes she wears,

The figure that she carries,

Or the way she combs her hair.

The Beauty of a Woman

Must be seen from in her eyes

Because that's the doorway to her Heart…

The place where Love resides.

The Beauty of a Woman

Isn't in a facial mole…

But true Beauty in a Woman,

Is reflected by her Soul.

It's the caring that she cares to give,

The passion that she shows;

And the Beauty of a Woman

With passing years only grows.

April is Child Abuse Prevention Month and May is National Foster Care Month

In honor of Child Abuse Prevention Month and National Foster Care Month I have chosen a poem to share with you.  A wonderful and talented woman by the name of Ina Hughs wrote this poem. The prayer reached a worldwide audience when it was read aloud during UNICEF’s World Summit for Children several years ago. Her “Knowing” and  “Love” of children is expressed so beautifully through her touching poem.  May God bless Ina and all of the children in need of someone who cares.  Bless you for your attention to this need.

A Prayer for Children

We pray for the children, who sneak a Popsicle before supper,

Who erase holes in math workbooks, and who can never find their shoes.

And we pray for those who stare at photographers from behind barbed wire,

Who can’t bound down the street in a new pair of sneakers, who never "counted potatoes,"

Who never go to the circus and who live in an x-rated world.We pray for the children, who bring us sticky kisses and fistfuls of dandelions,

Who hug us in a hurry and forget their lunch money.

And we pray for those who never get dessert, who have no safe blanket to drag behind them,

Who watch their parents watch them die, who can't find any bread to steal,

Who don't have any rooms to clean up, whose pictures aren't on anybody's dresser, whose monsters are real.

We pray for the children, who spend all their allowance before Tuesday,

Who throw tantrums in the grocery store and pick at their food,

Who like ghost stories, and who shove dirty clothes under the bed,

Who never rinse out the tub, and who get visits from the tooth fairy,

Who don't like to be kissed in front of the carpool, and who squirm in church and scream in the phone,

Whose tears we sometimes laugh at and whose smiles can make us cry.

And we pray for those children, whose nightmares come in the daytime,

Who will eat anything, who have never seen a dentist, who aren't spoiled by anybody,

Who go to bed hungry and cry themselves to sleep, who live and move, but have no being.

We pray for children who want to be carried and for those who must be,

We pray for children, who we never give up on and for those who don't get a second chance.

For those we smother and for those who will grab the hand of anybody kind enough to offer it.

Do You Love You...?

 

It is you who must identify and embrace and Love yourself if you desire Love. No one can truly share Love with you if you do not Love yourself. To begin and learn how to Love the search for spiritual truth and self-realization begins with who and what you are. All truth and Love is found within you. Be proud of your uniqueness and appreciate you. Explore your talents and use your abilities wisely to the benefit of all. Remember that a compassionate heart is the cornerstone of Love. When you love yourself and share your love with others, that Love-Energy radiates outward for the world to see and feel. The practice of loving yourself creates well-being, balance and harmony, which leads to Happiness and Peace of Mind. Your effort is more than rewarded when you seek to know your True Self, the Divine Spirit that you have always been. Your desire to seek the Spiritual Good benefits all mankind. So, do your part beginning today. Loving thoughts and acts of Love and Gratitude are a great way to start every day…”I am Grateful and filled with Love for my Being, my True Self, my Divine Soul and I am blessed with the privilege and gift of knowing how to love me.” With this knowledge we are better equipped to serve others and to be the example of Love and Loving.  Below are five tips on how to love you. Namaste’.

• Believe That You’re a Lovable Person. Begin loving yourself by looking into the mirror, look deep into your eyes and hold your focus there…the longer-the better…and then say to your Real Self, your Spirit, the True You… “I Love You”. When you focus on your eyes, when you look deep inside your True Self, realize that it is not the blonde or red or brown or black hair that you are looking at…it is not the dark skin or the light skin or somewhere in between…it is not the blue, green or brown eyes…it is not your perception of pretty or handsome…it is the Soul and we all are made in the image of God. We all want the same thing, which is to be happy and be loved. The Spirit is always worthy and deserving, so when you believe you are worthy of good things, good things come to you. Take full responsibility for your life and stop blaming others. Recognize yourself as Spirit because that is what you are. See yourself as the cause of what happens to you. Love yourself freely, deeply and purely. Love yourself the way you’ve always wanted to be loved.

• Don’t Be Judgmental. Stop all the criticisms regarding yourself and others. Treat yourself as you would someone you love. Buddha said…”You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection.” Being judgmental of your life process or yourself in general automatically creates limitations and awareness can no longer move to a higher level. Stop being critical of yourself and others by avoiding comparisons and gossip. Be mindful of what you think and say. Focus your actions and thoughts on loving-kindness and the good that is to the benefit of all. Remember that it's who you are, not what you do, that's important.

• Take Care of Your Health. We are in charge of what we say to ourselves so recognize that our lives are full of pure potential in health, wealth, and happiness. Take care of your body by giving it exercise and good food and proper rest and hydration. Be willing to create a life-style that generates and nourishes self-esteem. Health, contentment and trust are your greatest possessions and freedom is your greatest joy. Our bodies are magnificent instruments that support us in having our human experiences. In our Natural state, the human body has the ability to correct and heal and it is perfectly structured and operates perfectly. Watch it work the next time you have a cut…be patient and watch it heal itself. When we practice good care, we have a daily life experience of living with Ease. The Belief that our Natural state is that of Ease allows the energy in our bodies to transform our creation of “Dis-ease” due to improper thoughts and lack of good care back to the original, Natural State of Ease. The least that is required is good care and pure thoughts and the body will do the rest.

• Know Yourself. Spend time in meditation. Observe and experience YOUR Silence. When you look within and are still, you can feel the freedom from fear and anger and all other negative energies. Use exactly the same principle you use to put yourself down to elevate yourself into who you really are. You are a Divine Spirit. Spirit is Pure and has pure potential and the capacity to recognize it as such. It is important to take time for yourself each day -- time to focus into your spiritual awareness, time to drop the physical concerns of the moment and once again become aware that you are spiritual, that you are Divine, that you are, through your Soul, an extension of the Beloved, the Creator. Consciously generate positive thoughts and feelings of Love for that part of you that is the Beloved…your Spirit.

• Forgive Yourself. Learn to forgive yourself. Make forgiveness part of “you.” You are forgiving to bring cleansing to you! The only way to liberate your mind and emotions from the toxic poison of judgment is forgiveness. All of the good that you do is worthless until you decide to deal with forgiveness. Recognize that forgiveness heals you! Forgive yourself and then use your energy to focus on the love, beauty and kindness in the world around you. Forgiving yourself is about your personal power. Accept yourself as the Divine Spirit that you are and commit to treating others with compassion, empathy, respect and forgiveness. Forgiveness of yourself will transform your life. You will move toward a life of peace, compassion, mercy, joy and kindness…that’s who you really are anyway…really look deep into your eyes…they are the window to your Soul…see the Divine You. What’s not to Love??

Love Energy

Eventually, you will come to the understanding that Love heals everything, and Love is all there is. ~Gary Zukav ~

The first of the Universal Principles is Energy. The Journey Addition defines Energy as the basic component of the Universe. Energy occurs in either materialized or non-materialized form. All that we see and feel is an expression of energy. Energy is synonymous with love. When we resist the flow of energy, or love, we experience discomfort. When we align with the energy flowing around us, we feel joyful and at peace. The Bible provides a "definition" for the word "love". It isn't difficult to understand but it can be very hard to comprehend. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 defines love as; Patient, kind, not envious, not boastful, not rude, not self-seeking, not easily angered, keeps no record of wrongs, does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth, protective, trusting, hopeful and perseverant. If you add Jesus' statement "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly father is perfect." (Matthew 5:48) it becomes immediately apparent that, if God is perfect, He must "love" perfectly. So His love would then resemble this: God's Love is perfectly patient, perfectly kind, perfectly secure, perfectly eliminates wrongs from His memory, perfectly keeps His temper...and so on.

Everything is energy and all energy vibrates and is intelligent. We are energy and we vibrate and harmonize with all that is. We observe and interact with energy and our attitude toward energy and what we think about energy is the most powerfully creative process there is. Our thoughts create our lives and determine the results we get. Everything that we do is influenced by the energy of our consciousness. Love and the giving and receiving of the Love opens the door to a greater understanding. The purest and most powerful energy that a human can produce is Love. When we reside in the power of Love Energy, we are free and happy and contented with our living experiences. As we experience the frequency of Love Energy, we experience the Truth of who we are. Our perception and awareness of our Spirit becomes crystal clear in that we are NOT a human being having a Spiritual experience but a Spirit having a human experience. We do not have a Spirit; we ARE a Spirit. We are NOT a body; we have a body.

Without Energy our actions are dead because without Energy there is no life or meaning. Anything that is not experiencing the true living of life and love and change is dead. Life expresses itself in intelligent vibrations. Life is Love Energy in action. We are here not just to survive but also to experience the gift of life and to be of service to others. By being the Energy of Love, we have the power to shift energy. We have the opportunity to change the flow of energy through our ability to Love. It's the Energy of Love that is always willing to help and contains pure potential. When Love Energy is recognized we have the opportunity to experience “Perfectness” in our living. For those of us who are Seekers with the inclination to pursue this knowledge, even modest efforts produce measurable results. For those who pursue this study with determination and passion, the journey can be life transforming.

Love Energy is always present and is for the highest benefit of all. If every human being recognized the Power of the Energy of Love, all consciousness on earth would be lifted instantly. Love Energy is the Truth of our humanity. When we exchange Universal or Unconditional Energy in the form of Love we allow our hearts to graciously receive Love Energy in return. This exchange is Life as the Creator intended. Our thoughts create a powerful magnet that draws similar energy into our field of vibration. The longer we are able to focus on positive thoughts, the more powerful the positive energy around us becomes.

The Energy of Love is the only thing we need to solve any problem that we may have. The conscious act of Purifying our Thoughts, Seeking Understanding, Having Faith and Believing can change the course of our life experiences. There is an opportunity that is available every second of every minute through Unconditional Love Energy for humanity to be lifted into Higher Spiritual Awareness and to experience our True Divine Spirit, our True Nature. That’s why we’re here…the Purpose of Life is to become Spiritually aware of what we REALLY are…Life is for living, not merely existing. When we seek understanding, our Soul supports us in uncovering our Power. Love Energy is the way of nature and the way the Creator intended us to BE. Love Energy is Perfect and is the result of The Source of all Creation and the nurturing of the Divine Mother. With Love Energy, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. Namaste.

The Thirty Maybe ~Diamuid Cronin~

Maybe love has always been...
Maybe we made up hate...
Maybe we don't find God because we don't look...
Maybe this is heaven...
Maybe we invented hell...
Maybe there is always hope...
Maybe we pretend there is not...
Maybe we know all the answers...
Maybe we ask the wrong questions...
Maybe we can share this world...
Maybe we don't have to fight...
Maybe we wrote the script...
Maybe this is our choice...
Maybe we need to learn...
Maybe we need to remember...
Maybe we forgot who we are...
Maybe we will recall the truth...
Maybe we can relax...
Maybe we can all calm down...
Maybe we can recognize each other...
Maybe we can recognize ourselves...
Maybe it is all a dream...
Maybe we will soon awaken...
Maybe there is no mine...
Maybe there is no yours...
Maybe there is just ours...
Maybe we know this...
Maybe we just don't realize it...
Maybe we soon will...
Maybe...

Time Tested Beauty Tips ~ Sam Levenson~

For attractive lips,
Speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes,
seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure,
Share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair,
Let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.

For poise,
Walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.

People, even more than things, have to be restored,
renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed…
Never throw out anybody.

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand…
You'll find one at the end of your arm.

As you grow you will discover that you have two hands…
One for helping yourself…and
The second for helping others.

"Do It Anyway"

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered;

Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind,

people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;

Be kind anyway.

If you are successful,

you will win some false friends and some true enemies;

Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank,

people may cheat you;

Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building,

someone could destroy overnight.

Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness,

they may be jealous;

Be happy anyway.

The good you do today,

people will often forget tomorrow;

Do good anyway.


Give the world the best you have,

and it may never be enough;

Give the best you've got anyway.


You see, in the final analysis

it is between you and God;

it was never between you and them anyway.

This poem is engraved on the wall of Mother Teresa's home for children in Calcutta.

Flipping Your Negative Thoughts

And, so, what does someone do to alleviate his or her negative thoughts? The answer is quite simple but not necessarily easy. You learn to focus on something that is opposite to your negative thought. If you are thinking “Hate” in your thoughts, then consciously focus your thoughts on the opposite…focus on “Love.” It is impossible to Love and Hate at the same time. You can choose to practice this philosophy and when you do, you will become a Master at “Flipping Your Thoughts”.

Don’t dwell on your negative thoughts and feelings, but, instead, divert the negative thought to a positive as quickly as you notice your thought. Practically and realistically, it’s all just a matter of refocusing and changing your perception of whatever it is. The more you do it the easier it becomes. We all know that practice makes perfect and we all know it’s true. None of us walked on our first try!!

The objective is to become someone who has self-confidence and determination and is a positive spirit. When you are practicing positive thoughts and the purging of negative thoughts the evidence becomes more obvious on a daily basis. Having the drive to focus and be consistent creates a sense of fulfillment. Your perception is growing ever positive and you are happier and it shows. That’s just what happens.

As you practice the art of “Flipping It”, the positive practice becomes part of your lifestyle and you will begin to experience changes in your life. You will notice that your life reflects your actions as working for your good and for the good of those around you. It is very subtle and before you know it, many things just are not an issue any more. By becoming aware and changing your perception and practicing non-negativity, you will become acutely aware of how others feel, how others benefit from what you are doing, and how you benefit. That will be the moment you recognize how powerful the change really is.

The payoff in the end is this. Once you learn how to control what you are thinking, you are able to enhance the experience by not only eliminating the negative thoughts, but also, you have the ability to replace them with the thoughts and dreams of your heart’s desire. Remember, we are what we think we are. Human beings are thinking beings…that’s what we do. Practice this aspect and then help someone else “Flip It.”

“It’s All Good” and “No Bad Days” will soon become part of your conversation. May you experience Inspiration, Happiness and Peace of Mind, which ultimately leads to Happy, Positive, Dreams Come True Experiences in Your Elevated Life.
