Forgive and love, no exceptions

It’s time to wake up. It’s time to heal from your past. It’s time to face the challenge of your future and pass the test. Cause what this world needs is more winners. More brave souls. More dedicated hearts. More strong hands. More mouths, that open and close with the words, “I love you”. The world has seen enough fear. I am ready for a revolution. A complete and total transformation of our consciousness and the way we live our lives. I am ready for a completely new way of living. One in which asks us the real questions. Who are we? What do we want? What do we have of value to give to this world? What can we do to make things better, stronger, more loving? What can we do to be free? What can we do to be whole? What can we do to be safe? Safe to be who are we are. Safe to say I love you. Safe to dream and to build and to hope and to commit to a life that resonates with our core power and purpose.

What the world needs most are people who have come alive. I don’t care about your stories, dramas or cages. Tell me about you dreams. Tell me about your hopes. Tell me what you’ve always wanted to tell someone. I will respond with compassion. I will respond with truth. I will not let you down.

It's Just a Ride

Bill Hicks is a genius. I recently discovered him and hold on to every word. Three things: truth, love and laughter. I think that's all we need.

Why we are here

Art is the communication, the magic of the human spirit. If you are a human being, then you are an artist. As at arts professional and instructor, I hear all the time, I can't draw, I'm not a real artist, I can't make a stick figure. Can you hold a pencil? Can you move it around on paper? Then you can draw.

Everyone on this planet is an artist. Everyone is dying, wishing and hoping for that precious opportunity to create something that resonates with who they are. Art is a way to know who you are. It's an outlet of discovery. There is a reason we are here on this planet, and that is to create.

I don't care who you are, or what you've been told. You are an artist, you have something to say, and you can't wait for the opportunity to let it all come out.

If there is one thing I want to do in this lifetime, it's to actualize this idea fully and completely and to see people create from their hearts. It's not a coincidence that we are here, we chose this. It's time to wake up and make something that you believe in, make something's that's you.

The Most Important Lesson: The only thing that lasts is love

I envision a world where all people have the comfort and solace to explore the possibilities of their own personal creative vision, to find comfort in the unknown, and unity with themselves and other people. We live in changing times, we are all in some sort of transition, and what do you call home but your own creative vision?

When the boat rocks heavy and the winds rush strong, what keeps you steady is yourself. In these times we must hold onto ourselves more than ever. We must not let the tides of change move us to confusion and doubt, and most importantly not apathy.

We must be fearless in the unknown. We must find each other and join forces. Our visions must merge. We must create the world in which we wish to see. We must do this with intention and the energies we hold.

We really can create a better world. My vision really can come true. We really can have that kind of integrity and power. As these times change, we must look to ourselves for answers. We must not look back. We must make progress. There is no time to weep in indecision. The future belongs to the brave ones. The ones who step up and take responsibility, the ones who take responsibility for the good in the world, the ones who get through the personal dramas and childish fear and make sense of their reality.

The future is enormous. It is so much more than the things you fear today. It is so much more than petty concerns, petty fears, petty thinking, and wasteful emotions. We must refine our emotions. We must feel them and release them. We must finally embrace our humanity for what it is and allow true joy to emerge. From joy comes love and love is the only thing that lasts.

In the end, all the things that you have done, said, created, manifested, attracted and destroyed, in this lifetime, the things that you have loved will be the things that will be your legacy. Love is the only thing that has the power to last. Everything else diffuses. Everything. Everything.

You might as well get used to sidestepping those things now. You might as well not waste any more time. You might as well get used to loving, to doing the things that you love, to being around the people that you love, to sharing what you love to this world.

a big dream

today i woke with a big dream. i am in the process of waking up and my goal is to hold the energy of a child and to express the higher self through art and in doing so, change the world. this is my calling. i see big things. i see huge things.

i gotta move, i gotta go. this is the time, right now. whew. feeling intense, like transformation and change is coming, like success is coming. i have so much potential, spread your wings and fly.

break that shell, once and for all and shine your light bright. nothing can come in the way of this. absolutely nothing. life will present you with challenges to strengthen your spiritual resolve. and once you get strong, the thing diffuses. this i've learned.

and i feel an inner light in me smiling. one thing at a time. one little thing at a time.

Creative Freedom

I woke this morning and here is what came to me very first thing, in between alpha and beta state:

you have complete creative freedom at any given time, the only thing that comes in the way of this is thought.

the only way for you to shine light on this idea to the world, is to do it yourself.

to hold the energy of a child deep in your root, deep in your center, with practice and focus, and become this reality.

this is your destiny. and so you will change the world.
