My Thoughts on 2010: Part II -- Clarity

Our human experience has been, and continues to be, filled with all sorts of life changing moments.  Good, bad or indifferent--these life changing moments bring us ... Clarity!

Clarity is not always welcomed in our lives.  Especially, and in particularly, when it comes through events that are less than pleasant.    As human experiencers, we have clarity coming to us in  a wide variety of ways.  Some good.  Some bad.  Some downright humiliating.  Some even debilitating!

But no matter how it comes to us,  no matter  form it chooses to take, rest assured -- when clarity comes -- you will  find yourself in a whole different state of thought and being. 

When clarity comes,  we feel that shift -- a literal and physical sensation -- that pulls our consciousness into a whole new awareness.  It is in that moment, we see things so clearly.  It is in that moment where everything and everybody appears so very different.  It is in that moment ... we actually (and literally) see what wasn't there before!  In truth,in that moment,  we see what was there all along!  But could not see ... or for some--refuse to see ... for one reason or another.

When clarity comes to us, realization hits and we find ourselves in a whole new experience.   Sadly, for many, this experience brings regret and sorrow.   As in the case of losing a loved one.

Clarity lays out the choices we always knew we had -- but never bothered to take advantage of.

Clarity knows no boundaries nor does it have any emotional ties to what is going on.  It doesn't care either way what you are going through -- it comes to do it's job and then departs ... leaving you with what you needed at that given time.

Clarity appears and brings with it a whole new perspective on so many things.   If we allow it, it will guide us  directly into a more expanded and higher awareness.  Through all the pain, all the anguish, and yes, even through all the yearning for that one last moment to set things right, to have that one last moment to say good-bye ... and I Love You.  Clarity is there waiting -- to show you the other choice!

Happy Are Those Who Live Without Regret!

Some of you may remember the show,  Crossing Over with John Edward.  At the end of every show, John would urge his audience to communicate, appreciate and validate those in their lives each and every day.  He encouraged us to do this in order to live our lives without regret -- and too,  so we would not have to seek out the services of mediums such as himself.

Very Wise indeed!

This admonishment brought me clarity -- so I decided to take it even further.  Not only do I practice this with those I love, but I also express it to those I dislike, loathe and just can't stand! And trust me ... I have a very long list of those people!

Communicate, Appreciate and Validate -- CVA for short.   I urge everyone to CVA everyone in their lives Each and Every day.   And I do mean everyone!

 The act of forgiveness is not the condoning of any action -- but the refusal to carry the pain that action prompted into motion!  ~ Antari

Forgiveness is a beautiful art form in motion -- rare and ingenious.  Very few have mastered it.  Each person--for whatever reason --  has chosen to hold on to the pain -- as if it were a matter of life or death.  In punishing ourselves, we have collectively convinced ourselves that we are somehow, in some way, punishing the "guilty party."  Clarity steps in and shows us the bigger picture.  Clarity shows us  how very silly -- if not comical --that particular belief truly is.

Letting go is a process that must be consciously practice.  Sadly, in the age of "instant gratification" ... people have grown lazy.  They have found it easier to just hold on to the hurt.  They found it easier to bitch and moan about "it" rather than  letting it go.

I spoke to a woman today who flat out refuse to let go.  She actually told me, and I quote ... "I rather feel the pain than nothing at all!" unquote.

In my line of work, I have come across numerous individuals with that exact same mind set.  They are miserable.  But yet, they don't want to do anything about it -- but bitch!   Many of them are looking for a "magical cure" that will bring them happiness.  Sorry folks!  Don't work that way!  Never did!  A little something Clarity taught me!

When you consciously work to forgive -- to let go -- communicating your appreciation and validation to all those who have come in your life -- Clarity is there with its faithful companions ... peace, contentment, joy and wisdom.

When Clarity comes, it is showing you the choices you have right there in front of you.  Good, Bad or Indifferent.

Choosing to forgive, strengthens your clarity.  

Choosing to communicate your appreciation and validating those (all of those) in your life, strengthens your clarity.

Choosing to let go, strengthens your clarity.

Clarity brings about a peace that no one can take away.  Clarity brings you the strength to stand in your own power.

Clarity makes you a great mountain -- unmovable, resilient, tall and strong.   Like that  literal mountain ... you stand there in your peaceful  knowing-ness as the winds blow and howl all around.   And like that literal mountain, you too will continue to stand strong -- and never bend to those angry winds.  Knowing that no matter how strong that wind is  or becomes... you will never bow to them!

Clarity ... yea it's all that and a bag  of chips!
