The Truth of Who You Are
by Jill Swanson
The Truth of Who You Are has never left you. The longing, the searching and the being comforted by messages and explanations that resonate within tell you so. You Are One With All That Is. You Are That. That you are not That is an illusion. Drop it. Simply drop the illusion and accept that you are great and wise and wonderful. You have every right to change your mind. Literally, change it. That's all it takes. Why not? Ask yourself if playing small and doubtful is really working for you? Is it in your best interest? Your egoic mind is all that is keeping you from Self Realizing. So change it. Drop it like a bad habit, which is exactly what it is.
It's time to wake up. In fact, if you choose to be, you are already awake. Energy flows where attention goes. Place your attention on being awake and see how quickly things begin to change in your life. Be willing to see things differently and you will see things differently. Is it that easy? That is entirely up to you. It's true that you have been educated, conditioned and socialized away from Truth, and into appearances (blame). However, it is true that you have free will and the ability to choose (responsibility).
So gather up all of your Self-Esteem, Self-Worth and Self-Respect and start wherever you are in this Now moment being Who You Really Are, Your True Self. Others have the right to believe as they choose, and you have a right to choose not to believe them and to believe in your Self.
In the new energy, there is really no more messing around. "Ask and you shall receive" is absolutely literal and can be instantaneous. If you choose to continue with negative thinking, you will rapidly see your negative results. Likewise, thoughts of creation, of certainty and of already having will manifest the positive and the plenty. You must become that which you wish to have in your life (Be That) -- and you shall have it. You receive from the world what you give to the world.
Throw out everything you thought you knew and begin again. Begin here. Begin Now. Throw out the books and be the author. Stop reading about it, studying it and start living it. Take off the training wheels. Throw away the crutches. Come to the edge and fly (pun intended).
Do I know what I am saying??? Do I know what I am saying? I do, indeed, know exactly what I am saying. Life will never be the same. People and things will go away, but I'll let you in on a not too well kept secret...it'll never be the same again anyway. Stop trying to hold on. Change is the only constant and it will happen whether you want it to or not. It is far better to be creative, than to be reactive. Only the "C" has been moved. When you "C" things correctly, you become Creative, rather than Reactive (Conversations with God).
Begin telling the Truth about your Self to yourself. Step out of the illusion. Step out of the drama. Focus on the new energy and anchor yourself there. Don't place yourself in negative energy, for old energy repels new energy, and this will cause needless suffering. We are all going through it. It's time to clear our lives of what no longer serves us/the greater good.
Care for yourself as the Divine Spirit that you are. Care for yourself as you would Christ, or Buddha, or any Enlightened Being, because we are all the same energy, the same consciousness. Be still. Only when you are still can you hear Truth. Slow down. Breathe. Relax. Connect with nature. Do what you enjoy and be "in joy." Let the world around you be as it is. Let nature take care of nature. That's the way it is designed. Choose love. Choose peace. Choose freedom. They are yours. Wait and see.
To Realize, or not to Realize? That is our choice. The Truth of Who You Are has never left you. Namasté.
