'Stir the Soul' Contradiction

For every high there’s a low for every low there’s a high.

I have come to realize I contradict my self in my actions and words to see my true self in real light, instead of the light of the mind (i.e. imagination). 

I was walking down the street and saw the first butterfly of spring. It flew by some policeman and and I was so gleeful I pointed it to them, but they just grumbled and said "Did you see that girl" as I turn and I just laughed and smiled. Fucking boring ass pricks. No joy in their hearts. Just tells me where I’m at. 

I feel to some degree I have contradicted myself in "Stir the Soul". I suppose when I contradict myself it shows me there is more to me than who I actually state I am. It’s my responsibility to follow up in EVERY way to my word, to honor my self and others. 
Approaching beliefs with the notion of belief. It’s my mind folding back on itself.

I can tell you as many times as there are pebbles in the great wall of China, that yes the heart of the universe is in us ~ Wake up! What sense does it make, none. You couldn’t know until I handed you the body I have now. 

Thanks to all of those who have showed me love. Everyone who has crossed my path. Your paths affect me in many positive ways, and some difficult, but may our thoughts be wise and take us to common spaces where our minds come together.

Stir the Soul

"We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot. "
Eleanor Roosevelt 
 Over the course of the last year, since meeting my sweet husband, I have come into a FULL knowing of the endless possibilities that make up our lives here on earth. I am beginning to remember how special we all are. Our lives are of our own design, no doubt. The world is of our design, but beliefs are getting in the way of promising futures for earth. Like say... peace. It’s not a load of crap, it’s a state of mind and when you master it you hard wire your nervous system to a balanced state, and you inadvertently affect others.

Belief is so powerful that it sends thousands to war, and kills millions more. Belief sends countries into egotistical downfalls. Belief becomes illusionary realities. Belief is both the most enabling and disabling force. Energy in it’s most solid state is a belief. 
Belief creates a solid reality, at a much greater frequency... it composes all substantiated matter.

What can happen when we use belief to our advantage and the advantage of the entire human race and how do you start? What good can come of it?

Embracing the beliefs of others is the first step in our progression. We also have the power to take on new belief systems by pretending... yes, using the imagination. I have attracted all of my short term goals to me by simply pretending I knew how. I didn’t make up methods, I just knew I knew, by pretending. Silly? No. Immaculate, yes! The steps come to you because pretending you know clears the mind of doubt and worry.

Our lives here are golden, but our light is hidden underneath layers upon layers of false beliefs about ourselves and others. Realize the grain of truth in all views and you no longer label the doorways and walk the other way, the doorway that can and will take you out of your present reality. Look to new paths to find your own green grass, it is possible. When we use new beliefs to our advantage we become like broadcast system. When we open up to others beliefs we connect with them better and we learn to speak "up" to them because of our appreciation for their views.

The way to God is through first accepting yourself and then others. Not a select group of others, EVERYONE! God is the face of the man who transgresses you. All methods, all practices, all books, all BELIEFS are thought forms or ’concepts’. They narrow reality down to one ’idea’, when in all reality everything is possible. If you believe me! HA HAA HAAA!

A few months ago I had a short dream immediately as I began to fall into sleep, Dixon and my fathers face blended together in a golden ball of light. A low resonate voice vibrated from the lips and it said "You will know you are ONE when you realize your beliefs are theirs." WOW! Somebody give this girl a CAT scan! Interesting though. It occured after I watched a video on ascension. 

If you have nothing left to believe believe in yourself, you are real and someone is waiting to hear your voice. Call me crazy, but we’re never gonna survive unless we get a little crazy. Let’s light ourselves on fire!

Float... Like the Spider

Small, newborn spiderlings find a new home by floating on currents of air while firmly attached to a gossamer strand. They simply leap into the unknown! This is a fine avenue for those in hot pursuit of their purpose. Look around a little and leap, explore your territory and find out what the city offers beyond what you are used to. Do like you've never done before!

A great source for volunteer work is volunteermatch.org. More ways to sharpen a resume and heighten the hearing of the heart than was ever before imaginable! Serious, there is something for everyone, just type in your zip code and find something that suits you. Get on your feet and wake up your soul... try everything! 

Visit today: http://www.VolunteerMatch.org. 

Also visit utahpovertypartnership.org to work alongside me, advocating for local healthcare needs, hunger, and transportation.

Light that Fire



Greetings comrades! I will be directing the ideas and resources displayed here at the "ONE WORLD RHYME: SLC" blog toward both the Salt Lake community and its events and opportunities for civic involvement, as well as providing empowering literature from myself and others. 


I will channel to you, my readers, the very same energy on which I operate. Yes, the same verve that makes up my passionate fire sign, Leo the huntress. I want to share that and ignite others with the same passion or simply rouse the fire dormant in you. Why? Well, because if we can fixate on the more passionate, loving feelings of goodwill to fuel our drive to help society, it ultimately transforms every aspect of our lives. Goodwill and civic involvement is food for the heart, because while you're giving something your actually fueling a very deep level of your being, the life force of the world becomes an inner state again...the world becomes your playground! 


 I will maintain posts about the opportunities the city offers for expansion, be it events, workshops & lectures, volunteer work, rallies and the like, and best of all I will seek out those that offer low cost or free of charge events. I am always on foot downtown where I can attest to the growing number of avenues for involvement, especially at our downtown main library. I will regularly post encouraging articles as I know that keeping momentum can be difficult when our lives become difficult. 


My intention is to offer you hope for finding a great life where you can encounter everything as a gift. My intention is to make you aware of different ways to live your life, ways to enrich it, throw color into it and increase your sense of who you are and why you came here. I will provide feedback to all of those who comment... question everything and anything and provide your own unique perspectives.


Kind Regards,

The Momentous Super Human

In the here and now, you are everlasting. You’ve fought the good fight until this very point in time, in this moment.


What is it that I am aching for beyond every moment? Is it to finally move into my new home, the next good T.V. show, a better president, my next twenty dollars to buy some bread and milk that will surely be eaten by the end of the day, only to buy more to sustain both myself, my husband and our roommates insatiable appetites? Though we must certainly eat to go on living, truth be told, we are not going about our lives to simply eat more or even gain more monetary and physical possessions. That is the ego.


The being that thinks for us and finds itself everywhere, in a ceaseless chase to create our solid identities and complains to hold itself higher...sometimes lower, than other peoples egos. The ego will take till there is nothing, but as long as there is still ‘somethings’ in the world the void (unconsciousness) that is my ego will never be satisfied. The part of me that knows there is more than enough food the world over to feed 6 billion children of God is sequestered by the mass unconsciousness of ‘I’ need more! This is not who we are.


The part of us that exists behind this all is the “peace of God”.  Formless, not found in matter or thought forms. A watchful presence that exists in you that no one can define. It is in everyone...the light of consciousness. In light of this we cannot leave behind the pursuit of this moment.


You made it this far, you are here, you are now.
