The House You Live In

The House You Live In

What we speak becomes the house we live in.

– Hafez

What kind of an inner house are you building for yourself?  Everything that shows up in your life is there because of what you believe, what you say and what you do.  If you love what is happening, keep doing what you’re doing. 

If things are not going so well, there’s only one place to begin
– within. 

What you believe you deserve and what you believe is possible is like a beacon calling to your life.  Where are you shining your light? What are you drawing to you?

Abide at the Center of Your Being

“There is no need to run outside
For better seeing.
Nor to peer from a window.
Rather abide
At the center of your being;
For the more you leave it, the less you learn.”
 –Tao Te Ching, Lao-Tzu

There’s a stillness inside that knows all.  Yet too often we persist in looking to the opinions of others for guidance or try to unobtrusively fit into the world around us.

When you sit in silence and observe, the guidance is given, the answers appear.  There’s nothing that exists except you.  Look within for your answers. 

Live at the center of your being.

Live in the Present

“Live with nature in the present, above time.”  -Emerson

Nature has no timetable.  It lives in a beautiful process of unfolding. There is no specific time for a leaf to drop or a bud to open. It’s ready when it’s ready. 

What if you lived your life that way? Above time.  What if you let life unfold? If you simply took things as they came?  If you sat in the center of your being and just watched?

What would that feel like?  What would that look like?

Take some time today to be above time!

Call on Your Sacred Space Within

“Your sacred space is where you can find yourself again and again.”  Joseph Campbell

Take time to be still. Take time to listen.  The answers are there.  Within you is the knowing, the clarity, the calling.  When you hear the voice within, you must listen.  And heed.  And consider.  

As you move along your path, check in with the sacred space within. Ask for options and inspiration.  

Explore your inner self.  The answers lie there.
