Love is not a reward, it is our being

 You are loved beyond reason. It is not a reward.

I heard this in the my head the other day, in the voice of my WWOOF host, one of the two people in the couple who is hosting me while I volunteer for their projects right now.

This is really, really, important.

Healing my heart through writing

 You can judge a person's character by the amount of truth they can stand. I was a serial toxic relationship dater and bad sex addict for many many years and now I am 27 and I have put myself into a life circumstance where I can no longer fall into these pitfalls of human suffering.  Overly detaching and calling it general human suffering isn't the way, but detaching enough to understand that it was a collective experience, one that I was both affected by and affecting is the form of self-compassion that I am holding myself with these days. A theme that's majorly coming up for me is honesty. In my most recent relationship, not counting all the hookups I've had and short flings, there was a strong breech of honesty and good communication. I don't want to label anything as an "all toxic" relationship or any person as "all toxic" because to do that is to strike the nuances out of everything it encompasses.  All that being said the relationship was a...

When you have a dream, everything in the universe conspires to make it a reality. This, I believe, is truly law. There are no excuses for not following your deepest dreams. Even if you can’t see the whole road right now (which you won’t, because that’s the whole point of the journey and what makes it actually fun) you will find that roads open before your very eyes the moment you are ready to walk on them. Yesterday I thought of my Grandma. She passed when I was 15. For a while recently, every time I thought of her, I cried involuntarily. Yet I realize she is with me. I cry because I feel her love for me so strongly. She is always with me, and her love for me has only grown with her passing from this world to the spirit. She guides me, and she helps me. She brings people into my life who are supportive, loving and accepting of me. I thought of her yesterday, and then I talked to her, and I knew she would bring us the next ride. It was going to be energetically different, somehow, in...

This Universe is Built On Love

This is a universe fundamentally built on love. That’s why it takes so much effort to hate, to hurt others or yourself, to cause war, because it is not natural to us, whatsoever. We are made to believe, because of a mass agenda to keep humanity from awakening consciousness, that we are inherently violent and that we cannot live in a way that is peaceful, harmonious, easy, gentle, and naturally joyous. This is so far from the truth. Peace and harmony are our origins. This is, perhaps, a radical statement. But only because the brainwashing is so effective. We are made to believe that we are inherently violent and incapable of peace because those who are in “control” do not want us to create peace! If we believed it were possible and that we were inherently capable of harmony, we would create it effortlessly. It is our birthright to live a rich, soul-wealthy life. If there is harmony, and we all grow our food, and produce our own items as needed, what is the use of money? If we share ...
