I was blessed today. I learn from my fate and interactions.
I received a knock on the door and usually that is Amazon, USPS or a friend that may be in the neighborhood. Today, this knock was the City who came to replace my water gauge. I didn’t know that this was going to happen. They could no longer read how much water I was using as it finally broke down like all things do in this life. That old Buddhist tenet of Impermanence. I spoke of this in the blog I wrote on August 10th, 2024.
The gentleman that greeted me is an amazing human. He is one with a bright light and like many, he isn’t aware of how he changes every life he encounters. We all do. He has such a kind and hopeful demeanor. My life was changed by meeting Maurice. It is important to remember how we change whomever we come across in life. Every interaction is fated. We can bring out the good or bad vibrations in everyone we meet.
This City worker and I connected because of the kind and optimistic speech he has. Also, we both have had some hard times and rough pasts. Both of us are growing and learning from dying, the implosion of our lives, and being reborn. The Truth that we are not our history resonated with Maurice. We have to remember who we really are and remember that we are not our past data. That is all our history is … past data. The difficulty we have encountered and the people we have pissed off are what fertilizes our ground for that new seed to sprout and grow this present moment. The seed cannot grow in the past or the future. That seed needs all the nourishment of it’s environment … the right amount of water, the right soil, the right air, the right sunlight and the right moment. It needs to be a healthy seed as well. Like us, every seed has God’s energy inside it. How else do you explain how it grows? It is a miracle that a seed turns into a massive tree. We are miracles and so is our Potential. Our Intentions and Knowing who we are can fortify a seed to be hearty. Only right now, this moment, can the seed have the perfect conditions to break through the soil and start to grow.
It must be very good soil that is made for that tree. What fertilizes soil … manure. The shit of our past can make our soil ready for the seed we want to grow this moment. Your soil has all the learning and growth from mistakes that feeds the intention of a healthy, strong tree. It takes intention to plant the seed for ourselves and vision/belief and our dreams to create and be the tree we want to be. We must Know who we really are and who we are not. We are not our past data. We are not our guilt and shame. We are not our mistakes or the pain we have caused ourselves and others. We are a big and strong tree that weathers storms with roots that are incredibly deep. It has taken everything up to this moment to set us up to become the massive tree. We must envision that we want a big amazing tree to shade the area around it. It will shield life from the strong sun that can burn up whatever is in it’s path, yet use those sun rays for nourishment and energy. That tree can give fruit and seeds to the animals that need to grow. It can provide wood to warm the bodies of those who need that. It can give a special place for nests so the birds can have a safe place to sleep and raise a family. Our future tree is feasible and doable and requires knowing that we have the Creator of everything in us. That is power! We can harness the power of our Creator inside us to create a perfect future with our Knowing, thoughts and intentions. We must Know who we are. We have the Spirit of God in us and we can use that energy for perfection and we can have anything we can imagine. It is in our purview. Perfection can be had because if we know who we are, then we can dream of amazing states of being. If we can dream it, then it is possible and if it is possible, then it can be created. If we know who we really are, then we can remember and start new this minute. We can break cycles. We can do something we have never done before.
We are not our past, but the past is useful and it is there to get us to this perfect, present moment. Our past is needed and we must have the contrast of making mistakes to have the fertilizer of our past to feed our soil for this present moment and plant this amazing seed of our future. We also need this gift of having a present moment to become the amazing tree. Once you are the tree, it’s easy to identify as the tree. We are proof of our bigness then. When we grow, we can see our Godliness as fruition. We are our future because we have the thoughts and intention that make the action that supports this change in behavior reclaiming who we really are right now. When we know and remember who we really are, we can be our dreams.
A Daily Reminder:
- The big tree that is us is who we really are and not the shit which is our trauma and history of our past failures and mistakes.
- We must practice daily by using our Hopeful current thoughts to create our future. We must remember who we really are and remind ourselves everyday. We have always been a big tree.
- We have been lied to for many reasons. The authorities such as our culture, family, job, teachers, religion or government will tell us the lies of who we are. Usually lies are told to us as a selfish need for power. People want to remind us as well of the lies we often don’t recognize and question.
- We have always had the potential to manifest into our potential perfection, but we listen to what we are told and choose to believe the lies. Remember, all lies are rooted in fear.
- We are not our history, but that history is useful and required to create the soil for our potential.
- We have to use the present moment to make new choices to become the dream we have of being a big, amazing tree.
We are the big tree and more.
We have seeds to grow more big trees.
Be a forest!
