who am I,what am I?

I am re-posting this article , for i think it is an important part of our journey in this life, I don't know how many of you have read it, look at the answers from within or just read and never came back to it........ share the thought/s with friends and family and never get tired of asking the same question.

who am I?

 what am I ? 

 what am I here for? 

Why are we always looking for people’s understanding, appreciation and love? Are we not enough to love and appreciate our selves, why do we need people’s permission to love, cry, eat , breath, dance, walk ….why do we need people to tell us ...we are great, adorable, full of wonders and divine, don’t we know it ? why and why do we need assurance to live in our grandest form, to love god and us, why do we need assurance to be who we are, to love endlessly, to care, to abandon all thoughts and live in the present …why do we need permission and assurance……why do we allow judgment by others to rule our world, why do we judge others? Why do we allow pain, sorrow, anger to define us? Are we not unique and special, why do we allow ourselves to be victims?

Who are we…or to ask in a more personal form; 

who are you? what are you?

 Think deeply about this, not your name, not where you come from or who you came from but really, who are you?

The question again …WHO ARE YOU, WHAT ARE YOU? Are you appreciable, lovable, dynamic, great and a light on to all? Or are you pain, anger, frustration, ugly and so on…..

well, I am beautiful, divine and full of lights that spread with love, kindness and gratitude, I am an experience, absorbing all that I can learn in this short wonderful space, I am the light that shines within and outwards I am I the one that spreads her wings across without a limit I am wonders, sparkles and a drop within the largest of we all, I am I the co-creator , unique and beautiful , I am that with no word to describe, I am I, I am life

.

SO I ASK AGAIN, WHO AND WHAT ARE YOU? Think deeply, think freely and open yourself up for the answer, write it down……….. No matter how long, short or stupid you feel it is, don’t judge yourself, just write it down, remember nothing is stupid and nothing is wrong, keep asking yourself the same question till you can repeat it without thinking, compare your answers and see how you feel about it, you can share it with us here to help other sistas or you can have an open, truthful and simple conversation with your friend or family member about it. But remember keep asking till you are comfortable and in full acceptance of your answer.

For me ,I am amazing, I am me, I am love spreading its wings of light all through, I am one and I am…..but WHO AND WHAT ARE YOU?  Enjoy heaven letters below……

God said: Beloveds, sometimes it is true that no one understands you. Even friends, even good friends, see only a fraction of you, or even mis-see. Everyone has a partial picture of you. No one knows you as well as I do. People may think they know you and know you well, yet there is far more to you than the picture people see. People may even think they know you before they have laid eyes on you. This seems like a pity, yet this is not a pity. This is how it is. You yourself don’t begin to know all the dimensions that lie within you. At the same time, you do know more of the layers that exist within you than others do. Pretty much, you do. Not everyone surmises the same aspects of you. Some may even see opposite aspects. Would that the world grasped your full content. Yet not even you do. There are sun’s rays you also have never noticed. You are a deep well. Without full awareness of yourself, you nevertheless feel that others are to have a greater understanding of you than they do. If others really saw your light, it could be too much for them, yet it would be well worth their blazing through. No question, odds are people undervalue you, including those who love you. You are greater than the eye can see. There are ramifications of you that, so far, only I know. You may have a glimpse now and then, yet you don’t seem to know how to keep that glimpse in front of you. Something is missing from your perception. You also put yourself down simply by not seeing your full radiance. Thankfully, I see. I take full credence in you. You are inevitably My sunshine. Love is not blind in the sense I am speaking of. Love sees very well. I see very well. I wish you to grasp My vision and give fealty to it. Holy is My vision. Wholly is My vision. I hold you in Wholeness. Within My vision, lies the Truth of you, the bless-ed Truth. I blessed Myself with you. I blessed the Earth with you. I blessed the angels with you. You are My blessing. Frankly, you are a gift I gave to Myself. I claim you more than as My partner. I claim you Myself. I did not create you for nothing. I created you for something. Holy is your name. I created you from the Wholeness I am. No longer be dismayed that others do not see you as you deserve to be seen. Do not look for others’ approval or expect it, cry for it. Until a person can know himself, he cannot know the full range of you. So long as he underestimates himself, he will underestimate you. Care no longer to be known. Care that you know your magnificence and that you estimate well all those seeming others on Earth. It is easier for My children to see terribleness than to see Truth. You are intended to be a proponent of Truth. Be it then. Be it. See it. Live it. Own it. Have it. Share it. Acknowledge it. Accept it, the Truth of you. You are My Holy Child. I hold you in good favor. Hold yourself the same. You are a King or Queen on Earth, and I may be the only one Who knows. One day, you will join Me in the full knowledge of Who you are. You will also begin to see others in their full light. You are already the Light of the World, and you already shine it, yet your awareness lags behind. Oh, your awareness. May your awareness come to the fore right now. Honor yourself. Do not wait for others’ awareness. Wait for no man’s appraisal or approbation. Wait no longer for your own. Have it now.

WHO AND WHAT ARE YOU?

Why are we always looking for people’s understanding, appreciation, love and acceptance,why are we not just giving, why are we looking and yearning? Are we not enough to love and appreciate our selves,don't we have enough love and appreciation to share without receiving? why do we need people’s permission to love, cry, eat , breath, dance, walk,be us ….why do we need people to tell us we are great, adorable, full of wonders and divine, don’t we know? why and why do we need assurance to live in our grandest form, to love god and us, why do we need assurance to be who we are, to love endlessly, to care, to abandon all thoughts and live in the present we are …why do we need permission and assurance……why do we allow judgment by others to rule our world, why do we judge others? Why do we allow pain, sorrow, anger to define us? Are we not unique and special, why do we allow ourselves to be victims?

Who are we…or to ask properly who are you, what are you? Think deeply about this, not your name, not where you come from or who you came from but really, who are you?

The question again …WHO ARE YOU, WHAT ARE YOU? Are you appreciable, lovable, dynamic, great and a light on to all? Or are you pain, anger, frustration, ugly and so on…..

"Me Time";what ever I do , I decide and it is all about me!

You know when I started with the idea of having a blog, what I had in mind and still do is to create a ‘me time’ for ladies, a space where we can have the time to read or write or share things that we think will benefit our sisters out there, I wanted us to have that few minutes a day where we have the opportunity to learn from each other, to grow with each other and to just be…..a space where we can paint with our pen…..ask questions and stir up conversations(astonishing ones for that matter!) I called it cuddles and giggles because that was the picture I had in mind, that was what I saw, a place where love resonates and learning blooms, a place we build together adding what we need as we grow, a place where diversity speaks one language and that is the ‘me time’. A friend send the below good life issue to me and it reminded me of what my blog was all about…..I hope you enjoy reading it. Remember ladies get a ‘me time’ and don’t feel guilty about it, just be…..

The Good Life Issue 109

How much “me time” do you take every day? I’m not asking how much you get, but how much you take. Because, my friend, chances are you’re not taking enough, and you need to.

We can’t give to others when our own energy tank is depleted, right? Career, kids, relationships, home chores… it all adds up to a lot on everyone’s plate. We look longingly toward a few minutes or hours here and there of life without responsibilities and in the meantime, we become resentful and exhausted because we’re not pausing to refill our energy tanks.

Here’s how to make it possible to take “me time” every day so that you have what it takes to face the world:

• ·         Say no. You have a right to say no.
• ·         Let go (delegate). Someone else might do the job better, and love it.
• ·         Ask for help. It’s okay. As much as you help, isn’t it your Turn?
• ·         Stop being a perfectionist. Simply do your best.
• ·         Don’t multitask. Do one thing at a time, do it right and move on. It’s more efficient.
• ·         Prioritize.

That should open up some time for you. And now that you have time, how do you make a graceful escape? Just do it. Tell everyone you’re going to take 20 minutes to unplug from the world. The world isn’t going to come crashing down in 20 minutes. If you disappear for 20 minutes, people won’t panic. Get used to 20 minutes, every day, for YOU.

Make a quick exit and stick to your plan - NO chores, work, kids, spouse, house, pet, dinner… just you. If you’re married with kids, trade off “me time” with your spouse.

It’s easy to lose sight of the things that truly nourish and energize us. We feel guilty when we aren’t doing something - “I’m not being productive!” or doing less - “I’m being lazy!” But when did it become okay to keep driving hard, and never stop? Are you a cog in a machine, or a human being?

So… what do you “do” when you’re taking “me time”? Well, the short answer is, “whatever you want!” Here are some suggestions - but remember, it’s your life so don’t listen to me… do what YOU want:

• ·         Be. DO nothing for a while. And don’t feel guilty about recharging your batteries!
• ·         Exercise. Yes, exercise invigorates you!
• ·         Do what you love. Passion and energy feed each other

Meditation is a fabulous “me time” treat. When you meditate every day, you energize your body, clear your head and let go of the guilt of “not doing.” It helps you prioritize and be okay with letting go of things, responsibilities, activities and even people that drain you.

When you think about letting go of things and people that drain you, you may worry about loss. It could be fear of losing a friend who might be hurt that you didn’t want to be in her book club; or losing the respect of your peers if you take a weekend off… but instead of focusing on that imaginary loss, what about focusing on what you will gain?

Picture your ideal lifestyle. What are the components of that lifestyle? I’m willing to bet they include some “me time.” So take that time now, energize yourself, and start making that ideal life a reality.

Have a great week,

Yours for HUGE success,

Michael Mackenzie

Uplift Your Spirit With The Five Reiki Principles

I always love reading the Reiki Principles because they are a reminder of how we should live day to day, they are simple, interesting and if we try them we will be happier and less troubled! Life is filled with choices and deciding to pick a choice that is simple and yet allows you to experience life in the most profound way is the best decision you can make. This are 5 steps that allows you to breath , smile, experience life in love and unity, be fully involve in life wonders and what more....it helps kick all unwanted thoughts away!so what more ladies…..for a day enjoy the Reiki principles and see the exquisiteness and marvels of what you call life…..have a great day practicing the simple Reiki teachings!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes all we need are a few little statements that lift our spirit first thing in the morning and set a positive tone throughout the day. Deep sentences that when read or written down can refresh our thinking and shift our focus to what’s important.

Here are the five reiki principles that when read can bring you closer to a more inspiring way of thinking:

1. “Just For Today, I Will Not Be Angry.”

Anger towards the others, towards oneself or towards the whole world is one of the most complex inner enemies, creating blockages in one’s energy flow. These blockages accumulate into your body over years and cause disease and organ dysfunctions.

Look yourself in the mirror and observe your thinking when you’re angry, observe how your breath and your heart accelerate, feel your blood pressure growing up and admit how harmful and toxic this is for you.

Reiki can help you remain calm in any situation, stay in control, of your emotions and enjoy the best of every situation. Instead of being angry, remember how silly you look when you’re angry and how harmful this is for your heart, for your breath, for your blood pressure and ask yourself if your body deserves to receive a dose of this pure poison of anger.

“Letting go of Anger brings Peace into the Mind.”

2. “Just For Today, I Will Not Worry.”

It is always healthier not to worry, but if this is causing you blockages then you definitely should do something about it. Some people are excessively dwelling upon an unreasonable amount of worries and concerns, which is just sabotaging their own actions.

They block themselves into a passive-worried mode, becoming unable to make a decision because of all the aggravation. Try to enjoy your day without worrying about anything. Just for today.

“Letting go of Worry brings Healing into the Body.”

3. “Just For Today, I Will Be Grateful.”

Instead of focusing on everything that you don’t have, put your attention on all the blessings in your life and just be grateful about it. More than 50% of the population is living in miserable conditions, suffers from hunger and diseases.

There are still so many areas in the world without current water, electricity, not to mention the luxury of the internet and other things that we take for granted every day. Take a minute and be grateful for all that you have, enjoy every little thing, every word, every smile, your slices of bread with peanut butter and say “Thank you” to all the people in your life that make you feel good.

“Being Thankful brings Joy into the Spirit.”

4. “Just For Today, I Will Do My Work Honestly.“

As a response to the Universe’s gift for you, manifest your gratitude by taking responsibility for the work that has been given to you. Even if you might find that your job is so much below your full potential, just for today, try to do the best you can and be proud of yourself.

Take responsibility for every task that you’re given and be a perfectionist in every little thing you do. Everything that you do with honesty will bring you tremendous satisfaction and self-appreciation.

“Working honestly brings Abundance into the Soul.”

5. “Just For Today, I Will Be Kind To Every Living Thing.”

Honor your parents, your teachers, your beloved, your friends, your children and all the living beings by being kind with all of them.

“Being Kind brings Love into the Will.”

The whole idea is to boost your spirit and sense of well-being – just for today – with these five simple sentences. The key here is to feel and know in your heart that these five principles are true and are deeply connecting you with your higher self and divine energy

Words; so beautiful

Silence I take in

Words I strain to understand

Love I feel

Freedom from words I flew

Flew up the hills and far into a world filled with wonders

Joyous serenity of love and happiness, light as silk I flew and flew

Stillness, floating like petals of sweet smelling roses

Sweet silence I take in……wisdom becomes I

I becomes I am as I float in oneness and in tranquility

Covered in varied colors of light …I still flew

-------Rahina-------

Words are beautiful and words are amazing especially if we allow them to come from within us, straight from the heart and meant for love and being compassionate. But attaching too much to the simple meaning of words can be quite harmful to us, words are alphabets put together to give a meaning, a meaning that sometimes does not make sense, a meaning that  can hunt, a meaning that can hurt or even destroy us if we allow it to . We can say the same words but get different interpretation, we all see and hear things differently, words are just words and the so called “ugly” words should not have the negative effect we allow them to have on us, they are just words!!!!!

A good friend of mine posted this quote from Eckhart Tolle, in his book -  'A New Earth - Awakening to Your Life's Purpose on her face book page and it does make a lot of sense, here it is:

 «The quicker you are in attaching verbal or mental labels to things, people, or situations, the more shallow and lifeless your reality becomes, and the more deadened you become to reality, the miracle of life that continuously unfolds within and around you. In this way cleverness may be gained, but wisdom is lost, and so are joy, love, creativity and aliveness. They are concealed in the still gap between the perception and the interpretation. Of course we have to use words and thoughts. They have their own beauty; but do we need to become imprisoned in them? 
Words reduce reality to something the human mind can grasp, which isn't very much.»

We really can’t give everything we see or hear a meaning; life is more than that….let us live and allow love ,appreciation ,amazement  and  the wonders of life not to pass us by  , let us not attach words or meaning to the simplest and the most beautiful things we see or hear, let us  relax  in it and allow it to take us  away… let it bring out the life in us , the beauty in us and the love and creativity that is in us….Allow silence and just appreciating whatever you see or hear be the first, just silence and peace ,just watch in awe…… Use words and labels wisely but never get attach to it, they are just words and labels sisters, nothing more; we find ourselves in all sorts of situations and it is to us how we want it to be, if we think or decide it is hurtful then it will bring us a lot of pain and anger  but if we think or decide it is funny then funny it will be, if we do decide to just flow in it and open up to it and let it define itself within us and learn from  it ,the light from that situation will shine itself  and the understanding meant for us will be there at the end. We meet people, things happen for different reasons and opening up to learning from every new adventure in our life (I call meeting people and things happening in my life as adventures…lol… they are adventures when you really  think about it, it is like watching a movie sometimes with all the characters!!!!!…) is beautiful and fulfilling……. Life is too adventurous to waste on labelling, naming and making sense …….let us live ladies.

Heavenletters : Beyond Boundaries

Another beautiful letter from heaven letters, i could not resist sharing it with you ladies, we are who we want to be we should never limit ourselves.......we are such powerful souls.......

 September 9, 2014 

God said:

Take a deep breath. You do not need to be in the thrall of upset. It is not so important that you are right or wrong. It is important that you keep your balance. The world is fraught with distress. You do not have to be.

Even when your rights are being infringed upon, you can remove yourself from aggravation. Even if you are handcuffed, and you are innocent, you can be handcuffed and let the aggravation go. You have to, beloveds. It may seem to you that you are at the mercy of the world, yet it is you who has to be merciful to yourself. You may be bound hand and foot, yet you do not have to tie yourself up in knots. Let your emotional life be under your jurisdiction.

The world can toss you around. That does not mean that you yourself have to be in league with upset.

Sure, you may be tossed around by the waves of life, yet you can maintain steadiness within yourself. You have to, or you are at the whim of life, blown about by the winds.

Of course, you want the world to be merciful to you. Meanwhile, count on yourself, beloveds. Meanwhile, count on your own mercy. Meanwhile is right now. Right now is your call.

You do have say over how you interact with life.

If you don’t like frustration, then do not let frustrating events frustrate you. You can lean in the direction of being unbound. You can admit the possibility. If life has denied you in some way, makes you run through hoops, closes doors in your face or whatever, you, beloved, are a soul, and souls do not have to take orders from the world at large. You are more than a bouncing ball. You have steadiness within you. You do not have to take on all the colors of your environment. You are not exclusively a reactor.

You can be cool under the sun.

You do not have to be a warrior or a boxer in life. You do not have to put your dukes up because life seems to invite you to fight. Even in confinement, you have choices.

You are not made of hard metal. You are not a robot who is programmed. You have the capacity to rebound from every situation. Regardless of anything, you can come shining through. You are a human being, and you have inner resources. You are bendable. You can bend to your will and not necessarily someone else’s.

What you make of your situation is what you make of it. You are the decider of defeat. You are the decider of strength. You have the capacity to interpret yourself to yourself and to the world. I am not speaking of a brave front. I am speaking of the intelligence and power that are yours.

That you can overcome may have many meanings. Fighting isn’t your only prerogative. Nor is succumbing. You may be in the situation you are in, whatever it may be, yet you are spirit, and spirit is not confined to the world of walls or chains or anything. Just as when you go into a department store, looking for a shirt, you have a selection to choose from. As a human being made of spirit, you have choices available to you. You have the opportunity to be what you want to be. How do you want to conduct yourself? What do you want to be?

I do not speak of a performance to show the world. I am speaking of your heart which can be what you want it to be. You can put up your dukes, or you can present the palms of your hands. Of course, you can rise above situations and roles you are cast in. You can go beyond boundaries. Of course, you can surprise yourself.

Dreams;big,small and fabulous........

Dreams are an essential part of us, it allow us to grow, to be happy and to blossom in whatever we are doing. Without dreams there is no life, life will be unexciting, unchanged, un adventurous, slow and unimaginable…so we dream. Our dreams have been killed as women for a very long time, we have been told that a woman should not dream, her only dream should be about the growth of her husband, the growth of his ambition not hers and the growth of her children, her father but never hers! The sweetness and rush of anxiety brought by our dreams have been shut down in us Women, we deny our dreams and we hide behind a curtain of no dreams…we live but a life without a dream is not a life……we need to start dreaming and dreaming more and more for life is at its finest with a dream, it is the essence of our soul, the food it needs…..it is our future…it reminds us of all the possibilities….. all the wonders….. and all the presence of life…..lets dream women, it is who we are, don’t deny yourself that pleasure because someone felt you do not deserve it, you deserve to dream, to dream as big or as small as you want……Neale Donald Walsh puts it in a lovely way……he reminded me of the importance of dreaming and now I am reminding you in his words…..

                                                 “On this day of your life,

Rahina, I believe God wants you to know...    

...that dreams get you into the future
and add excitement to the present.

Robert Conklin said that, and he was right.
So dream away, and dream often, and dream big.
And never let anyone talk you out of your dreams.

What is your dream today? Is it vast enough, bold enough,
to hold your soul? Oh, I must have forgotten to tell you.
Dreams are the container of the soul.
That is, they are the Holding Place of God.

So dream big, yes, because the bigger you dream
the more of God you let in!”

SO LADIES KEEP DREAMING AND DREAMING, DREAM BIG AND FABULOUS……NEVER LIMIT YOUR SELF FOR YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!

What God Said about EGO

I always love reading heaven letters, some are funny and some are just straight to the point but one thing i know is i always pick an important message from them and learn a thing or two which at the moment is all i can ask for.... read with an open mind and you will find a learning some where in the below message... 

God said:

One thing you can be absolutely sure of is that I do not have an ego to consult. It is laughable that I would have an ego. To have an ego, there would have to be something I feel I have to justify. I would have to think I have something to defend. The very idea has Me rolling in the aisles.

Human beings have egos, for they listen to a false prophet. Ego at your side perks up its ears when he feels threatened and, therefore, feels he must stand up for himself parading as you. Ego is ever-ready on the alert, just in case. Ego has nothing to do but look out for offense. From smallness of vision, ego finds offense lurking around every corner. Ego’s attention is on smallness. Ego lacks a grand vision.

Hmm, is ego the opposite of God? Is ego the Mighty Mouse oppressor taking the role of defender? Is this ego? Ego, the fault-finder. Ego, the hair-splitter. Ego, the raging ox. Ego, the pincher of hearts. Ego, the thin-skinned. Ego, on the look-out. Ego, the censor. Ego, the critic. Ego who cannot be pleased because never enough deference is given to him. Ego, the inflamed. Ego, the heartache and belly-acher. Ego, the robot, who stands with sword in hand, ready to swipe at anyone who doesn’t give due deference. Ego, the warrior. Ego, the thick-headed. Ego, who constantly jockeys for position. Ego, the nit-picker.

What, on Earth or in Heaven, would I ever be doing with ego? Then I would not be God. I would be more like a crybaby. I would not reign. I would bounce off of everyone, and I would avoid darts. I would become a keeper of scores. I would be the farthest thing from a God. If I reduced Myself to ego, I would resign.

Ego has some dominion in the world. None in Heaven. Ego has no entrance to Heaven. Ego would fear to enter. He knows he would dissolve here in Heaven. He knows there is no place for him. In Heaven, he couldn’t lift his head. Ego is so small, he wouldn’t even be seen in Heaven. Ego would wither on the vine if he were not seen. Ego depends for his livelihood on being noticed. Ego would perish if he were not a star. Ego is so puffed up with his own importance. If ego had any importance, he wouldn’t need to be puffed up

As it is on Earth, ego says to you with great aplomb: “See me. See me. I am your savior. Never mind God. He’s off somewhere smoking a peace pipe while I stand up for you. I fight off all the darts and arrows that are thrown at you. I cover for you. I protect your honor. I don’t let anyone get away with anything. I am quick to act on your behalf.”

Ego is such a con-artist. He sure has you fooled. You think ego is necessary. All the while, ego is a fraud. He incites. He starts fires. He starts conflagrations. He sets off bombs.

Now, you might say: “God, if ego is so nothing, why are You belaboring his non-existence? Why are You alerting us to the shabbiness of ego? Why do You talk about ego as if he were an arch-enemy? Why don’t You just ignore him? That’s what You want us to do, isn’t it? Why don’t You just huff and puff and blow him away?”

Beloved wrangler, ego does not exist! He is a false-front. I would, however, stand on My head to get you beyond ego. Ego is yours. He is your made-up cartoon character. Yes, I rail against ego. I try to open your eyes to ego so he can disappear from the face of Earth. Ant-bites hurt. They are so tiny, and yet they hurt. Ego is small, yet ego gets in your way in a big way.

Ego that doesn’t exist gets in your way, beloveds. And you are the ones who must leave ego behind. So long as you feel ego exists and exists rightfully, he is quick to incite you to battle. When you step over ego and beyond the strife he exercises in you, then you will know what freedom and peace are, and then you will live them instead of the pin-pricks of little non-existent ego.

Ego, be gone.

Unifying Diversity

We all cant be the same, just think about it if we were all the same colour ,the same race, the same language , the same sex, if we all had the same believes and if we all think the same...hmmmm ...what a boring life that will be! so beautiful and wonderful nature decided to bring some spice into our life and who we are by making us all different and fitting us all into this amazing grace of earth.  So why do we challenge that? why cant we learn from our diversity, enjoy knowing the different type of beings , animals ,plants....... why cant we enjoy the little time we have here to learn and grow.....what is wrong with not being the same!

What an incredible diversity of life forms exists in this world. Every part of the planet is different. Even within one area, the array of different species, colors, habitats, and life forms is simply stunning. What incredible intelligence was required to create something so magnificent? What is truly amazing when you look at nature is the intricate synergy that exists, with each life form working within the overall flow of creation to make the entire planet sustainable in so many minute yet essential ways.

Why don’t human beings operate in this same way? Why don’t we honor and cherish diversity, even within our own race? Why don’t we try to learn from those who think and believe differently than we do rather than expect or even demand that others think like us? Why don’t we honor all of nature and do our part to preserve the delicate balance that makes life in all forms sustainable instead of trying to dominate the natural world for our own selfish desires? Why don’t we learn from nature that cooperation for mutual benefit is better than competition, greed and selfishness?
