Maintaining My Balance

I take my first deep breath to help me establish my balance.

Everyone I know takes their first deep breath to help establish their balance.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, takes their first deep breath to help establish their balance.

——————-

My balance starts with acknowledging what I love, and seeing it all around me.

I have wonderful companionship, productive activities, beautiful surroundings.

Any disturbance to that causes me to clearly reestablish my balance.

I have learned how to consciously cultivate such a life and I know I must consciously maintain it.

We have been taught the principles of democracy since we were little children.

Now that their practice is under attack, we are becoming more conscious of their great value.

We take our first deep breath to expand awareness and appreciation of these principles.

Then, as we love what they stand for, we let that love and awareness and appreciation fill us completely.

The steps needed to protect and guard ourselves against the disruption come to us naturally.

We find ourselves in harmony with groups who have been organizing protests and electing candidates.

We see the results in many successes and look forward to many more.

We see how the approach of democratic principles being lived through grassroots campaigns is eroding old strongholds.

We see the great contrast between old entrenched ignorance and bold new enlightened action.

There is a lot to be done, and it starts with the first deep breath of awareness and a desire to establish the balances which create good for everyone.

Live for the Greater Good

I am listening for ways to live for the greater good.

Everyone I know is listening for ways to live for the greater good.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is listening for ways to live for the greater good.

——————

What are the little things which I can do which will benefit myself and others?

As I build on these, what will I discover that increases my ability to do good?

How will it encourage others?

How will it give support to those who are in despair?

How will it give confidence to those who are being beaten down by the current system?

I can be polite and courteous.

I can write to my elected officials.

I can volunteer.

I can donate.

Most of all, I can remember that these are temporal, temporary states.

The state I am drawing on is the one within, the state of mind which wishes to see everyone live well.

Solutions are found when we listen for unlimited good.

We have to have the concept first.

When we create conditions which allow ourselves and others to have time to think and imagine instead of the exhaustive stance of fear and worry, many new ideas which utilize resources efficiently come to light.

Some individuals have been able to beat the despair around them and have come up with uplifting solutions.

What could happen if that were today’s goal and standard?

I Bear Witness to a Higher Course

I am here to bear witness to a higher course.

Everyone I know is here to bear witness to a higher course.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is here to bear witness to a higher course.

————————

I am able to listen for ideas which allow me to act in a way which respects everyone.

My higher course sets a standard which allows me to uplift and inspire.

I give others room to rise when I respect them.

My higher course draws upon ideas which allow the unlimited potential within me to be expressed.

It allows the unlimited potential of others to be released.

By creating room for unlimited potential, we allow society to rise in unselfishness and generosity.

We are led to ideas and solutions which come when we listen for a higher course.

We create a calm and secure atmosphere for life for all of us.

We live in a dimension which allows abundance to develop in new ways.

We progress beyond our current limitations based on fear and greed.

We work together to develop world solutions based on best practices all over the world.

Our gift is to respect and uplift and comfort and release solutions which benefit everyone.

This is our higher course.

Invest in Yourself

I invest in myself fully.

Everyone I know invests in themselves fully.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, invests in themselves fully.

—————-

By honoring the ideas which come to you, you are investing in yourself.

The ideas which well up in your thought when you wonder what to do with your life, are an answer to an important question.

We all have value, and our value is best expressed through the individuality which is here to uplift.

Investing appreciation adds power to our thoughts and ideas.

Recognizing the source of all our ideas unifies us.

Having a unified and uplifting thought changes the atmosphere and environment in the community.

Valuing each other and trusting in the power of our ideas allows us to put uniquely appropriate solutions into place.

We all receive wonderful ideas when we listen for them and feel their calm and inspiration.

Valuing and using these ideas  is how we can best invest in ourselves and our communities.

Freedom Through Perception

My freedom is built on how I perceive myself.

Everyone I know builds their freedom on how they perceive themselves.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, builds their freedom on how they perceive themselves.

———————

Looking at myself from within, I can see that I am guided by an Infinite Source.

I see myself as connected to a view of the world much larger than I can see by myself.

As I attend patiently for the things I need to know, the information comes to me.

I am able to take the steps which come to me for completing projects and I enjoy the freedom of figuring things out.

As I practice my new sustainability skills, I appreciate the interdependence within my community.

We all share our skills, experienced people helping the new ones.

I am glad I can play a role on one side or another, depending on the project.

My new feeling of competence as I learn and share is empowering.

I appreciate the value of what I am learning, and I am glad it was important enough for me to make the effort to learn it.

I am acquiring the skills I choose for reasons that are important to me.

I am glad I have taken the steps to empower myself in the direction that is important to me.

I perceive myself as more whole and I appreciate the freedoms my new skills are giving me.
