During such a period in time with all this devastating news about natural disasters, hatred, killings, psychotic and demonic behavior…it appears we’re living in fear and the belief of separation vs the things of The Most High. Take hold of the state of your mind (and tongue), as we must protect and nurture the things in which it consumes. Whether that be visual consumption, verbal consumption, audio consumption or edible consumption. Trust that our physical well-being, our lives and bodies can and will emanate that which dwells in heart and mind. So may we examine ourselves, our daily thoughts, our word choices and our intent. It’s time for healing. Vibrate higher. π
Every artist, professional, mother, father, friend, child and…even bum; anybody can attest to this. Keeping in mind “nothing” & “everything” are relative and subjective; defined by our own mental capacities and beliefs. After reading the few words above I was led to sit and examine myself, silently.. So may all my brothers and sisters be poised and grow disciplined by The Most High within no matter the circumstance, the opportunity or obstacle we perceive in our lives. It’s all about your level of patience and your attitude. Vibrate higher. πππ
