The Blessed Life

I wish the light of repentance wakes on me so that I can walk into the light.  And its brightness goes deeper into my cellular consciousness to wake me up and guide my ways.  I am certain the feeling of regret will open up into something bigger, a complete spiritual change .  I wish the light reaches into my heart and it wakes the seed of goodness within. Repentance is not an apology.  It is not a confession.  It is an act of making a 180 degree turn to own my errors, mistakes and wrong doings where I shall take them with full responsibility.   I pray for the light of repentance to shine on my thoughts and burns away all negativities.  I pray for the light to beam on my words and let me to communicate with loving positive words.  I pray for the light to glow on my deeds so that I respect all creations.  I pray for the light to radiate on my actions and it teaches me to be humble to acknowledge my imperfections. I want the light of repentance ...

To be at peace with life is to accept things as they are.  I have to avoid analyzing too much or to fret on the small stuffs.  When there is too much over-analyzing or over-thinking, the decision making becomes paralyzed.  Analysis is paralysis and there shall be no solution or course of action acted upon. Life is usually understood when I look backwards.  My past experiences shall be the guide and they are good life lessons to provide the wisdom for the future.  However, I should not live in my past for life has to be lived forward. To live in the past can cause me not to live in the present.  Focusing too much on the past can keep me permanently stuck there.  Rather than spending too much time replaying how things ought to have gone, it is much more productive to let go and let God to transform my present. Living in the past empowers negative thoughts to grow.  When I have learned from my past, it is good that I erase it from my memory.  I ...

I should not live for the sake of living.  Surely, there is a role for me on Mother Earth, no matter how small it is.  Besides to be a good son, a good brother, a good cousin, I can spread my feeling of love to nature too.  I should talk to the trees, sing to the birds and express my gratitude to all of God's creations by just touching and thinking of them. It takes little effort to smile.  It is courageous to show kindness to strangers in need.  It is a worthy cause to think of good things to the people I know and pray, or truly wish, for their well being.   When I cannot do great things, I can do the small things in a great way. Contributing to others is not only good for the people receiving it.  It is also a good thing that makes me happier and spiritually healthier too.  Giving connects me to others, creating Love in the process.  And, it is not all about money.  I can give my time, ideas and a little energy. Doing things to he...

From 1 (the lowest) to 10 (the highest), where is my level of peace?  Where is my level of happiness?  How happy am I in general?  Am I truly peaceful?  Do I have a high level of good and meaningful life?  How well am I able to cope with my struggles? It shall be wise that I come to realization so that I reap the full life.  It will make me to be proactive with myself, not in a narcissistic way, but to identify the grand benefits where they are beneficial for my emotional, mental and spiritual growth and development.   Pressing myself to answer these questions, honestly and truthfully, will navigate me into mindfulness.  Should I have them in the high range, are the answers a sum total of truth?  Have I, completely, decluttered my heart and mind that I score a high state of being? Or, are all these high ratings a play of my ego?  Are they my state of denial because I want to look good, feel good and be good?  For that matter, what a...

The soul of every humans is an energy of love; is Love.  Is about Love.  Is full of Love.  The soul is the abstract immaterial essence and totality of who a human is at a core level.  The soul is the true nature of every humans. All that a soul wants is to make humanity to live with moral compass and direction.  The soul does not know, nor does it want, life to be complicated.  The purity of the soul wants every humans' lives to know that he or she is more of he or she can become. It is my egoistical mind that makes my soul to suffer.  My soul suffers when I do not nourish it by integrating a spiritual component into my life.  It suffers because I do not strive to give my life meaning and purpose. So, my dear Self, by whose side do you want to live your life with?  The mind?  Or the soul? I have to be aware of my soul and the works of my egoistical mind.  I have to make a clear distinction by which energy I live by.  My mind is...

It is a blissful connection should I hear the voice of my soul.  It is very healing should I hear the whispers of my inner child.  I am a relational being to them.  To be able to communicate with them is natural. How do they sound?  How can I hear them?  What will be our common language?  What will they tell me?  How would they guide and protect me?  Will it be overwhelming?  Are they sad?  Or happy?  Can they help me to make my life better? Not to be with them makes me to feel disconnected.  My soul and my inner child are parts of me.  They are always there for me.  They never left me.  I am the one that have neglected them.  I fail to look after them.  I pay no attention to them and have left them uncared. I am guilty that I have buried them deeper and deeper as I pursue my earthly material life. It is common to steer away from hearing them.  As I move on from an innocent child to become an adult...

Life is Just Is.  Should I make a remark that life is hard, what am I comparing life to?  Who am I compared it with?  When I say that tomorrow will be a better day, what is the basis for my positivity? It is natural that I shall look for differences and similarities in life.  But, is there a need for it?  The attitude to compare robs me of gratitude, joy and fulfillment to what life is.  Worse, it prevents me from fully living my life. When I insist to compare, I am not giving myself to live with faith.  I make myself to envy on others and seek theirs rather than appreciating what I have.  Constantly doing so, I fail at giving gratitude.  It robs me of my most procession - life itself. There is nothing good ever comes from trying to compare myself to others.  Comparing my life with others is a losing proposition.  Fact is, there will always be others who appear to be better off.  And, that should not affect me should I accept m...

What else can I do?  To be deeply affected with the ongoing happenings, around the world today, will not make my world any better.  I am in no position to elevate nor can turn things around.  The only contribution I can offer is to keep on praying for all things good and well.  And, keep social distancing, I guess. It is good to remind each other to stay healthy.  It is good intention to update each other with the news, but they have to be positive and uplifting.  It is good to keep the love for life going.  Love, in unity, pushes the virus away.  Love among us shall rebuild the sanctity of human life. While the situation is affecting our lives, my life, I have to look at the brighter side.  It shall do me good to lighten up, be responsible and stay positive.  To smile more and laugh more.  And, not to get worked up for not able to do the things that I used to do. While getting stuck at home can be a toll for some, take this opportu...

It is always easier to talk about doing something.  Often, I say something but never get to do it.  Often, I will criticize on something and be a keyboard warrior but not taking the initiative to act.  Do I make my talk that cheap? To be a better human, either I stop talking for the sake of talking or I walk the talk.  I have to show that I mean what I say by actively doing it myself.  My soul will be proud of me should I practise what I preach. Can I walk the talk?  Can I do what I say I could do, or would do, and not just making empty promises?  When I know what I am saying, I have to be proactive.  I have to take the initiative, own it, and not just wait for things to happen. The Universe works with the Law of Attractions and Vibrations.  She feels me.  The more she feels that I am only talking and not acting, I will not attract the things that I want.  I have to prove to her that I put an action where my mouth is.   Ta...

Many aspects of life can make me feel trapped.  A news of someone passing, for example, makes me to wonder the grief of those left behind.  A news of a war makes me to question about love, about humanity.  When I hear that someone is emotionally in pain, I feel sad.  Or, I read some news that I have nothing to do with and they upset me. What's within me that I have created that is causing me to feel trapped?  Something about these unrelated events are stirring me up.  Am I trapped because I have been hiding and running away from facing the reality that life is to offer? Perhaps I have not given life with enough love to live on?  Perhaps, I have taken life for granted?  Perhaps, I have not been proactive to gain a sense of joy with life?  Perhaps, I feel that I have no control over what is happening?  Am I feeling afraid to live?   I have to take charge to realize that life responds to me.  What I see life to be determines the w...
