The Blessed Life

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 and where is the level of my ego? Mother Earth has alwa

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 very attached to being earthly with all the material n

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, I become tangled up with the pressures of life.  I have lost them during the process of

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 my self identity. There is no end to the comparison game.  T

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 opportunity to build relationship.  Bond with the souls insid

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.   Talk without the support of action means nothing. Kindness is not

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 way I see the world.  I have to make sure that I am look

Life is what I make of it.  It is up to me to make the life that I want.  I have a fair share of the universal abundance.  The entire universe is inside me.  I have to allow myself on all the opportunities.  At the core, it cannot be just dreams but accomplishments. Life can be a struggle.  It is important that I have the mindset to get through it even when it is hard.  I have to hold on to what I have because when I have it, it is a possession.  All the ideals and criteria I have set in my head are not mine because those have not happened to me yet.  When ideas are just in my head, they are just ideas until I act on them. I am a small part of the big equation.  To experience as a human, I need to remind myself how lucky I am and be thankful for that.  I have to live my life.  When I live my life, there will always be the divine moments.  When there is a will, there is always the way. To walk through life, I cannot wait for my plans to materialize as they may never materialize the way

Should I want to change my world, I have to start by changing my own beliefs.  I have to exercise paradigm shift on how I view on the nature of life.  On how I look at people.  On how I interpret every events.   On the way I perceive at reality.  Simply, I have to establish by looking inward. I have to turn my beliefs to something more positive.  I should not empower nor manifest the negative aspects of life.  I should avoid thinking of the what-if.  My thoughts are like boomerang and too much soaking up on negativity and the what-if can stunt my growth. The most powerful thing I can do for myself is to love life.  A life without love is like a tree that will never blossom.  A life without love is not a life at all.  A life without love, with no matter how many other things I have, is an empty meaningless one. Life is neither good nor bad.  It is neither suffering nor bliss.  I am the one that put labels on everything.  It is my thought process that makes life to be difficult.  Should

When my mind is open, I shall not be overwhelmed by an unusual event.  Anything could happen and probably will.  It will be good that I expect the unexpected.  When I let my life to flow with the flow, I shall not be blown away when the unexpected happens. Life is planted with the unexpected.  Just like the world that I live in where it is capricious, unstable and constantly changing.   While I wish for things to be in order, where all events are stable and predictable, I have to be prepared for surprises. I want good things to happen.  I want things to work according to my plans.  Should things are not going the way I want them to be, there are good reasons surely.  I should accept them as opportunities to learn, grow and make an improvement. Life is as it is.  Some days are great, others are not.  Each of these creates the canvas for me to design how to make things better.  While I pray that all things are good and well in my life, I have to expect the unexpected to make my life bett
