Hello you sweet...sweet people!! I am so loving your eyeballs for seeing this!! IN the new year I am launching my new blog/website and I will let you know where to find me. I know I have not blogged in a LONG time. The inner work is now balanced with the outer movement. I cannot WAIT to start connecting with you daily..woohhooooeee to 2013!! All the love that I am..wishing you a gorgeous holiday season!

Why do we ever doubt ourselves?

It has been a long while since I felt moved to blog..well that is not exactly the truth..it has been a long time since I actually took the time to blog..and now..something that moves my heart..moves me to write again. Thank you for reading this..for sharing in this journey of love and happiness..and finding out what we are all made of. Why is it that we doubt ourselves, our decisions, our greatness, our ability to survive anything..to love..to feel..to just BE? What is it we think we have to prove? And to whom? Why is it that when someone pays us a compliment we fling it away like the snot of some rabid animal? Why is it that we cannot look in the mirror and say..well sweetie..you sure are beautiful in every way? And like all questions that begin with why..this answer begins with because..we have simply forgotten who and what we really are. We are playing a game with ourselves..called not enoughness..and this game of not enoughness lies at the root of ALL of our percieved problems and suffering. How often we hear in ourselves and in others the quiver of not enoughness..it is so common that we hardly notice it at all..until not enoughness is mixed with fear and then ohhh boy..is it ever in stereo. Ever spoke infront of a crowd, ever asked for a raise, ever been afraid to call someone or say what you felt or make a decision..and felt like you were in agony..in hell..shaking, sweating, weak in the knees, depressed..all of that..guess..what? That IS not enoughness...and a bit of fear. And not enoughness is simply the fear of never being enough..so double whammy there. Here is the thing..we are all enough..simple by BEING we are enough..reading this YOU are enough..writing this I am enough..watching television, making love, being angry, depressed, walking the dog..all of this is enough..we are ALWAYS enough...it requires nothing..and you are enough..simple..although, apparently, not easy to remember. If we take a moment to stop comparing ourselves to each other or the way we think we should be..we get a glimps of what it is like being enough..for that is what we all are..in fact we are all of us..each and every one of us..MORE than enough..we are miracles..only everyone. Taking a moment to be silent..to reflect on what you really are frees you of this not enoughness. Beneath the game of not enoughness..lies the truth. And this is what you are: Love, Happiness, Grace, Freedom, Peaceful, Accepting, Gratitude, Present Awareness..these are not states or things you can go and get, or discover, or obtain by going on a really long journey or recieve by depriving yourself of things you love..nope..these very states..are what WE are..all of us. And when we KNOW this..we are free to play other games..to just BE..to receive..to roam free. Huh? you say? Ok, try this..put on your favorite love song..you know the one that really gets you..sit down with a hand held mirror and listen to this song in its entirety..while looking into your very own eyes...do it..see what happens. Loving you.
