Facing Forward; Embracing Our Authentic Truth

We limit ourselves by living in fear, regret and with expectation, to a world of illusion where we project our conclusions formed from unresolved past experiences.

Facing Forward; Embracing Our Authentic Truth

The way in which we speak to ourselves influences the world in which we live. We are creators, therefore we create our own realities; writing the script according to the thoughts we entertain. When we feed upon negativity in regards to ourselves, we come to embrace those thoughts as truth, even though it may be farthest from the truth as a whole. The end result is an shrouded energy of unworthiness enveloping our self perception. We then follow suit by acting and reacting upon that self projection as factual evidence, thereby restricting our potential for growth and development in the long run.

When we entertain a negative perception in regards to our relationships and social encounters, we cause division or lack of clarity, thereby sabotaging the potential for an authentic experience.

We limit ourselves by living in fear, regret and with expectation, to a world of illusion where we project our conclusions formed from unresolved past experiences. The truth is that nothing is absolute and relinquishing expectations liberates each experience to evolve within its own truth.

Each individual and circumstance is an original. The only duplicates circumstances are the experiences and beliefs that we choose to revisit. Those are the ones that generate vibration and manifest as reality, only because we gave them a role to play in our life script. The thoughts and words we choose have the strength to either empower or oppress us. Our power lies in choice, thereby making us the director of our own life script. The only control that our fear and regret have is the control we relinquish over to them and the power that we instill within them.

Acting and reacting to negative stimuli is a result of falling beneath the submission of fear and regret. Our power of choice enables us to decide what role we wish to play on the stage of life. We can abort the plot of a life scripted to us by our thoughts if we choose, for it is our thoughts that created it to begin with. We can reject the fate of a life scripted to us if we choose because it is our choices that directed it. We can refuse a role in a life scripted for us if we so choose because it is our will that manifested its reality.

Now, I understand that there are times in life when situations occur that are from the actions of others and are out of our control, but we have the power to choose how we respond to the stimuli that will in turn effect our lives on a deeper level than the original circumstance.

Be mindful of the thoughts you entertain because they become internalized as truth and manifest as a frequency in which your energy vibrates. If you judge and blame yourself you will energetically and subconsciously attract penitence because it is the fate that you have come to believe that you deserve. If you hold vengeance in your heart for another, you will again attract more situations that are familiar to the original circumstance in order to work through and heal the perception and coping mechanism that you have now established.

Living in fear and doubt paralyzes the vibration of courage and faith to receive, thereby blocking the ability to attract what is meant for our highest good.

Living in the moment, living in gratitude and choosing supporting beliefs will assist in facing forward in our authentic truth, while unmasking the ghosts of the past.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
