A message

During meditation the following came into my consciousness.

“Greetings ye wife of women Maria * bringing a message for thou on earth.

This time brings divorce or seperation for many. Relations fall apart; men and women must revise their position.

When not in harmony it brings sadness and lack of understanding.

May it be clear this is a learning period and they may realise they are stepping upon a new path of learning.

Grace they’ll find within themselves. They may lovingly view themselves and others.

In dignity they may be and know their qualities.

No longer they need to lean on others but may stand in inner power. In confidence they may care.

Be aware of intolerance what stands in progress way.

When the lesson has been learned they may manifest their forgiveness and acceptance in further relations.”

* English translation: Mary

I believe

I believe I can decide to give meaning to my life or not.

I believe I create beliefs and behavior to that accord.

I believe I am spirit living a human life.

I believe as spirit I have chosen to develop, to progress via learning experiences and that’s why I enrolled in this school called human life.

I believe to live life to the fullest I needed and need experiences to teach me what and how to do.

I believe there is no failure, there are discoveries only to show me what works and what does not.

I believe that as spiritual human being I receive all kinds of internal and external signals to make me aware of my feelings and thoughts, my abilities and my choices. 

I believe I am multidimensional and operate cosmically & terrestrially in many different formats of reality within the eternal 'Now'. 

I believe time is a purposed illusion and there is a constant subconscious communication between my multi-selves.

I believe each thought, each sensation has a magnetic frequency. 

I believe the resonant of these thought/feeling frequencies will attract  similar vibrations and the more attention & focus I give the more powerful  it becomes. 

I believe this applies to negative and positive thoughts and my energy (auric) field will vibrate accordingly.

I believe I cannot just ignore or wish away my lessons to develop, to evolve.

I believe others are here to help me understand how I can act and react.

I believe others teach me by showing how they deal with their experiences.

I believe in order for me to progress I have to accept the invitation I get from life and to face the lessons offered.

I believe I do not have to like every experience but until a lesson is faced it will repeat itself in one form or another over and over again, until it is completed and mastered.

I believe by accepting the invite I can create the energy needed to learn.

I believe whenever I seek to avoid the responsibility for my own actions, I generally do so by attempting to give that responsibility, that 'blame', to some other individual, group or cause.

I believe that I in that process of shifting blame, unconsciously give away my power and that I take away the ownership that allows me to 're-create'.

I believe the closer I come to the light, the more I get to see what is hidden in the dark.

And if I fear the dark? I believe the more I learn to accept my responsibility the more strength I develop to look my fear into the eyes.

I believe I give meaning to my life.

You do not need me

They knew each other for many years.

They were a couple.

One day he told her out of frustration:  “you do not need me”.

She replied: “I do not need your help, as I trust there will be others who can help me.

I do not need you to love me under certain conditions only, as I know love surpasses all.

I do not need you in the sense of not being able to live without you, cause I believe I can.

Even when you are gone I will be in pain but will go on as I have befriended myself.

Yes I do not need you but I chose and choose to.”

The worth of a woman

This little story needs to be told. No blasphemy intended.

While God was creating woman an angel passed by and asked why this creation took so much time.

God asked if the angel had seen all specifications needed to complete this task.

“She needs to washable but not made of plastic. She has more than 200 moving parts which all need to be replacable. She needs to be able to function on different kinds of food, hold several children at once and to pass out hugs needed to heal silvered knees and broken harts.”

The angel was real impressed.

“All this with two hands only? That seems impossible to do. This is a standard version?

That needs more time still, just rest for now.”

I don't want to said God. I am so close to perfecting this creation. This will be my heart’s favorite.

The angel came more close and touched the woman and said: ”But is is soft”.

“Yes” was God’s reply. “I have made her soft but she is strong too. You cannot imagine what she can endure en recover from. She can heal herself and work 18 hours a day if needed.”

“Can she think?” was the angels next question.

And the reply was “She can think, reason and communicate.”

The angel touched her again and pointed out there was some kind of leak. The woman seemed to carry too much burden.

God answered “No there is no leak… that is a tear”.

The angel asked to what purpose.

And heard “  At times tears are her way of expressing her thoughts and emotions of sadness, doubt, love, loneliness,suffering and pride.”

The angel found all specifications very impressive and declared God to be a genius.

"The woman is fantastic".

And that she is J

Men keep on being amazed (and some afraid) when they notice the strenght of  a woman.  

A woman can deal with difficulties and carry burdens. She has  love to give as well as an opinion.

She can sing when she wants to cry, she can cry when she is happy and she can smile when afraid.

She fights for what she believes in and stands up to injustice. She does not accept ‘no’ for an aswer when a better solution is possible.

For the sake of her family she is willing to offer herself.

Even when her heart is broken she finds a way to continue.

She knows love can heal a broken heart.

There is something she tends to forget:………………. her worth!

The lesson of a butterfly

Today I was looking into an old diary of mine and re-discovered this little story named  ‘the lesson  of a butterfly’.

One sunny day a man is sitting on a bench in a park.

He sits there staring at the soil and sees a cocoon.

Suddenly there is a movement and a tiny opening appears.

The man becomes interested and notices inside there is a butterfly struggling to open the cocoon.

Hour after hour passes by and all at once the movement stops. It seems like the butterfly is giving in. It seems like it cannot go on any longer.

The man decides to help the butterfly and opens up the cocoon some more.

Now the hole is large enough for the butterfly to come out. But it’s body is small and shriveled up; it’s wings rolled up.

The man keeps on looking as he expects the butterfly to become strong, to open up his wings and to support its body.

Nothing happens.

After a while the butterfly walks about, its body weak.  It does not take long and the movement stops; its life has gone.  

What the man with the best of his intentions did not realize was he stopped a natural process. The restriction of the cocoon and the fight of the butterfly were nature’s way of making sure liquid was pushed from the body to the wings. The butterfly needed the struggle to optimize its strength. It was nature’s way to activate the butterfly to become ready to fulfill its life to the fullest.

Like the butterfly we too need our own obstacles to test our strength.

We too need a chance to discover our possibilities to use our wings.

We too get opportunities to fly in victory.

Ten years have passed since I wrote in that diary. Looking back in time I can say life provided me with some obstacles and yes they did help me to become aware of my inner strength.

I do hope if obstacles come onto your path you decide to see them as opportunities too. Have a safe flight!
