one funny thing about life is how we're all returning to what we've always been

that everything we've searched for is already there, will always be there, and never left

but as we travel through life and experience the many natures of personhood and individuality, we seemingly cover up that innate pure light we are

as children, we were closer to the divine, closer to our Creator and that pure expression of being, there was no ignorance in that type of bliss, but rather limited corruption

but as we grow up and wander away from Source, those of us that are lucky enough to wake up and return home get to experience and know a deepened appreciation for God and this gift of life

and that's where the rubber meets the road so to speak, because with that knowing we come to fully trust it, our faith and love towards Creator becomes such an important and intimate part of ourselves, our relationships, and our lives that every moment becomes an opportunity for a deeper expression of that love and light

to radiate God's light requires us to shift our breath, intention, and awareness towards everything we always are: peace, joy, wholeness, and love

and flexing our power to rebuke, by acknowledging, learning, releasing, and transmuting all of the crunchy and negative bits within us that cause us to close off

through that, we can open up to receive and give even more of God's love by becoming open vessels for Spirit to flow through

and in that alignment, everything becomes even more beautiful, abundant, and cinematic

i was looking for ways to use my sourdough recently (you don't need it for the recipe btw, it just helps for digestion) and saw this recipe

i tried it and it was super tasty and really simple to follow along. i really enjoy the nuggets, i made a ton

there was a few others in their post history as well that are solid, i'm going to try the bacon one next

life is always inviting us to chose a better path for ourselves, and there's no greater time than right now with lionsgate to fully step into the new beginnings that life is offering us

we're entering into an age of glory, an era that strips away the middleman approach to things in life, such as institutions being the means through which we do commerce, worship, pray, learn and grow

just as life is stripping away what no longer serves us, we're seeing a rapid shift in those areas where institutions have corrupted society

we can see this coming into reality through the advancements of ai and open source information

yet the most important shifts are the ones going on spiritually

we have more and more people waking up, seeking truth, seeking change, and seeking to be the best versions of themselves

yet at the same time, we are also being directly confronted with some of the most chaotic times humanity has experienced in tensions, turmoils, wars, genocides, addiction, disconnection, and fear

but just as many of us are coming at the cross roads of making a choice, so is humanity

collectively, we can change this place when we individually chose that higher path for ourselves

the one of love, light, growth, newness, and adventure

or we can all continue to repeat the past pains, understandings, and ways of old that will only continue to darken our lives and world

im honestly very hopeful for the world, and i know that the more of us that remain in hope, push for change/growth and continue to build up our intimacy with Source the better odds humanity pulls through and steps into the glory era gracefully

because no matter how dark things get, even the smallest speck of light can be seen, and with enough light, we can eradicate and disperse every shadow

im curious how everyone see's themselves in these bigger shifts at large and how is it impacting their journey and path of life?

life can be often viewed as a search and journey back to wholeness, but that doesn't mean the end road will be one of holiness

however, if we search for holiness we inevitably will find and embody wholeness

that subtle distinction is one that becomes life changing when we build a sturdy foundation of holiness

what comes through time and time again is that our holiness starts with being in a constant inner state of gratitude, of thanksgiving, of child-like excitement and enamour with this gift of life

gratitude transmutes any and all experiences we can have, it makes the sweet moments sweeter, the bitter ones turn to lessons, there's no true lows because it reveals growth and it makes the high moments even more elevated because we marinate and radiate in the goodness of it all

and through those moments of gratitude we pour that appreciation to the Creator of it all

that aspect of constant appreciation for life naturally leads us to building more intimacy with Source, because we discover God in every slice of now we experience

that appreciation then has plenty of moments to build even more intimacy in our relationship between ourselves and Creator

one invitation that came through in my guided meditation/satsang practice today was: what happens when you are grateful for every breath and moment you're alive in the waking state?

ive practiced the inner 'thank you' quite constantly, but never the entire day before, but i accept that invitation and see it as a beautiful practice to attempt as often as possible and the goal of from waking up to sleep in mind and heart

there is no doubt that gratitude is the path to grace

it's easy to see that most of the chaos and suffering we experience comes down to some form of self-sabotage or an unwillingness to learn, let go, or move on from some pain (self-absorption)

and in that breakdown and angle of it, we can see that those actions close ourselves off from receiving love, from receiving grace

those two simple words 'thank you' opens our hearts up to receiving again

not just for life, but for divine grace and blessings from Source

what's been beautifully wild to me in this introspection on gratitude and grace is that thanksgiving plays a role into so many more mechanics of our reality than at first glance

because thank you, being grateful and in gratitude is one of the strongest forms of manifestation and prayer

calling forth what we need from our body by thanking it already, saying thank you for that in which we're yearning for from God both bring us into the energy of having/completing whatever it is, in addition to radiating and embodying it too

i like to define praise as gratitude in action, and when we look at the mechanisms at play, it's easy to see that gratitude is the road to grace and one of the greatest tools and paths of development we can invest our beingness into

i hosted a meditation on this recently and it was pretty fruitful and super potent

to learn and experience Truth and Love, you must walk the same bridge of understanding; because Truth and Love operate through the same mechanism: expansion

we can only experience newness through expansion; that realm of going beyond what is known leads to a greater understanding in ourselves, the world around us, and Our Creator

while building unity, connection, safety, and all other forms of human love, we also undergo that process of expansion

when the walls around our hearts dissolve, we experience an expansion that brings us closer towards God, the Infinite, and ultimately the Truths of ourselves and this universe: that all is Love

everything in life is in a flux of expansion and contraction, yet when we are primarily trapped in the contracted states, we miss the opportunities life has to offer us and we limit our potential and power as children of God

because as creations of Source, we are innately beings of expansion, because we are the living embodiment of God's Truth and Love
