I now allow myself the full freedom

to fill up my life completely with things and people that I love.
to not associate or have anything to do with people or things that I dislike or feel no connection to.
to talk to interesting people that I am curious about.
to love myself truly and completely.
to let go of [...]

Empower (part 2)

“Only the heart knows the correct answer. Most people think the heart is mushy and sentimental. But it’s not. The heart is intuitive; it’s holistic, it’s contextual, it’s relational. It doesn’t have a win-lose orientation. It taps into the cosmic computer – the field of pure potentiality, pure knowledge, and infinite organizing power [...]

Empower (part 1)

Oh hay! Look! I’ve gone and resurrected this from the dead.
I stopped writing Chrysalis for a long time because, although it did have a positive effect on how I lived my daily life (just having that daily commitment to self-development really changed the way I perceived situations) – it was starting to feel [...]

3: Courage & Self-awareness (part 2)
I just wrote this spontaneously, and it is the result of focussing on courage and self-awareness this week:
I want to find something that I can truly devote my life to. It’s a constant search I suppose. I have been searching unconsciously for my whole life and consciously for years and [...]

3: Courage & Self-awareness (part 1)

“There is nothing that you are not able to overcome and transform into the light of that which you wish to create.”
- @ShipsofSong

“But acting with beauty and courage doesn’t always mean you win.  It just means that you can still look at yourself in the mirror without cringing.”

Yes, this is late (sorry!) but better late than never right?:

Wrap-up of 2: Joy & Acceptance
The interesting thing I’ve been noticing about this project is that I reap the benefits of it mostly towards the end of the week or in the week following. For example, last week I found it a lot easier [...]

Joy & Acceptance (Part 2)
An online friend of mine, James, shared these two wonderful excerpts with me. First:
God speaks to each of us as he makes us,
then walks with us silently out of the night.
These are the words we dimly hear:

You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me.
Flare up [...]

Joy & Acceptance (Part 1)

“I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me.  It is a splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want [...]

Wrap-up of 1: Gratitude & Giving

I feel like I’ve learned to see the world more in terms of how I can add to it as opposed to my conditioned thought patterns of what I can take. In one of the first few posts I made, someone on Facebook commented that it’s really the focus on [...]

Gratitude & Giving (part 5)

Today I’ve been feeling rather split in half. Part of me is under extreme pressure and the other part is ready to just fly free – to fly completely free like never before. I wonder if breakthroughs generally come from feeling so caught between two huge, opposing influences. I hope so, [...]
