Captured Moments

Fears from the past can be held in our sub-conscious and unconscious human aspects for lifetimes.  Without our conscious effort, we can harbor old hurts, fears and misunderstandings, etc., within our own bodies.  Denying they are there, hidden away from our view and self awareness for a long, long time. If they are revealed, we can feel the fears all over again or send them even deeper, away within us, for an even longer time.  When we can muster the inner courage to look at them honestly, without judging them or ourselves or those who may have created them within us, we can make genuine progress! People are always trying to make their way forward as they attempt to make their dreams, goals, ambitions or purposes happen.  They can hit up against us as we attempt to make ours happen, too.  Egos can hit up against egos and eruptions can occur. Consequently, bad feelings, hard feelings, negative thoughts or poor reactions can result and we can stuff them into o...

It is like a portal into a much more vast TRUTH realm and an active sense we are not separate from it and never could be.  It links us to LOVE, Self-Acceptance, Self-Respect a...

Being human, we can identify with the wounds we have experienced and attach to the comforts we seek because of the wounds we are aware of.  It becomes a cycle of self-fulfillment to continue being identified with both extremes.  However, these are human experiences and not the truth of who we are. Our truth lies in the center of those two extremes.  It lies in the balance of heart, mind, body and soul.  It lies at the center of our being/BEING self.  The true core of who we are within us. There is a core self within us who is clear, clean, Loving and pure.  It is our inner witness to the life we are living.  It doesn't judge, criticize, condemn or treat us badly.  It is an inner Presence.  It is our individual soul self, connected to the Great Cosmic Soul, the Eternal, Living Presence.  It is always within us, clear and Conscious, even though we can forget it, stop listening to it, ignore it and yet, it remains Present and Pure.
