Insignificance

I have begun to look at my self and things in general in a different way.

A few minutes ago, while driving home I thought about how I was feeling right then. I was happy to find that the answer was… content and joyful.

Right then it hit me: Maybe all those people in my life that had always made me feel insignificant and unworthy, were absolutely necessary and vital to my being.

I could not have room for expansion and growth if I thought I was significant, OR could I? And of course, I had to realise that those people in my life were NOT the ones who made me feel insignificant. It was me. Somewhere deep inside, I felt so small, so insignificant, so separate and so alone. And I believed it. For a very, very long time I felt separate, but my yearning has always been to just belong.

I heard someone saying recently: “The world will tell you who you are, until you tell the world.”

It just made sense. Since the Universe is our mirror, why would the world tell me I am insignificant? Because, that is what I believed to be true.

I have always understood things better with illustrations in my life. So the insignificance thing came to me in the following mental picture.

If you look at anything… but let’s use the illustration that came to me … a cell phone. Without all its parts, including the TINIEST component, it cannot function. So, no matter how small the tiniest component within the device, without it, the device will not function.

Then, on a larger scale, would it not also be true, that in the device that we live in, the Universe, we are all necessary. No matter how small or insignificant or separated we feel. We ARE ALWAYS essential, necessary, vital and very, very significant?

This realisation has been a light bulb moment for me.

Namaste, fellow journeyers.

The start of Gratitude

How can I consciously contribute to making life more beautiful and meaningful?

For now, by consciously making my life more beautiful and meaningful.

I have started to consciously take note of everything beautiful, or even not so beautiful, that surrounds me every day, and then to integrate it into my daily being. Then just being grateful for its presence.

Today is my first day of blogging, so this is all new to me. And I have no idea where all this might lead. I am just following instinctively where I am being guided.

So I am going to start of today by taking a few moments to express my gratitude to the Universe.

I read somewhere, and have been experiencing it for some time now, that Gratitude opens our beings to receive.

I thank you for every moment of beauty, love, joy and grace I get to experience.

I am grateful for the life I have to live now, the life I have lived. The lessons I have learnt, and the one's I still have the privilege of learning. The people that have been chosen to become part of my experience as a human being, for exactly that purpose. Learning.

I am grateful for the right here and now and being able to give thanks, right here and now, for my being, for my existance and for my contribution to All-life.

It is time for me to participate.

Thank you for all my daily blessings, miracles and magic. To be able to think, feel, express and experience everything that I am surrounded with every single moment of my life.

We are all wonderful, amazing and infinite human beings. It's time for us all to remember who we are. Including me. Always keeping in mind that we are spiritual beings having a human experience. Not human beings having a spiritual experience. It changes how we view life.

Thank you for the miracle of life. It is an honor and a privilege beyond comprehension.

Let's embrace the light that is our destiny, fearlessly and courageously.

Love and Light
