“I AM”- Loveable. Words To Live By and Share With Our Children

“I AM”- Loveable- Words to Live By and Share With Our Children.   Life Time Affirmations to Live By-

As a “Global Community” we need to foster positivity and lessons of how to cultivate good self-esteem in our children so that they are in alignment with humility and compassion.  This is a practice that we never outgrow.  Ashé!

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

Have you ever thought about the possibility that as our children watch us navigate our lives, they are tuning into how we feel about ourselves and consequently, we are teaching them how to feel about themselves?

Our Children are always on our minds!

I AM LOVABLE

I AM COURAGEOUS

I AM CAPABLE

I LOVE TO LEARN

I LOVE TO PLAY AND HAVE FUN

I TAKE CARE OF MY BODY

I TAKE CARE OF THE WORLD AROUND ME

I LOVE OTHERS AS THEY ARE

I AM GENTLE AND STRONG

I LIKE TO SHARE WITH OTHERS

I AM KIND

I AM FULL OF JOY

I AM SPECIAL AND UNIQUE

I AM PROUD TO ME

I AM BEAUTIFUL

I AM POSITIVE

I LIKE TO DO MY BEST

I AM POLITE AND THOUGHTFUL OF OTHERS

I AM COOPERATIVE

I TRUST MYSELF

I RESPECT MYSELF

I CAN BE CALM AND RELAXED BECAUSE I AM IN TUNE WITH MY EMOTIONS

I CAN BE PEACEFUL INSIDE AND OUT IN ORDER TO KEEP MY PEACE AND SHARE MY PEACE

I AM THANKFUL AND I LIVE MY LIFE FROMA A PLACE OF GRATITUDE

IMAGINE IF WE THOUGHT THESE THINGS AND LIVED THESE THINGS- WHAT MIGHT OUR CHILDREN LEARN FROM THIS MODALITY OF LIVING LIFE?  AND REMEMBER- THERE IS ALWAYS MORE TRUTH AND KNOWLEDGE TO BEHOLD IN LIFE!

 

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

Spirit Speaks- Are You Listening?

The Ancestors are Calling Us to Acknowledge the Value of the Wisdom of the Elders!

When “Great Spirit” Speaks – Just say yes!

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

I am learning so many valuable lessons that are helping me have a daily rebirth of my soul!

I use to hesitate when asked to speak or sing, because I struggled with always wanting to be humble of spirit and character. I realize now that I was hiding the gifts that God had endowed me with and that these were gifts, He intended for me to use for His purpose that He embedded in my soul expression. Little by little I am learning that when I am asked to speak up, stand up, and show up, it is God that is asking for obedience to fulfill His purpose in the healing of our planet and our humanity.

Each of us have a divine purpose that is not attached or dependent on any element of our being except our “souls”! We don’t stop or retract from our purpose until it is fulfilled. There is not an age limit to doing “our work”! As long as we can find ways to express our divine purpose, we are called into action!

That became crystal clear to me one day when I was asked to share my work with a group of seniors. Now the word “seniors” does not resonate with me at all! Culturally it is inappropriate and carries an energy that is stayed and stagnate! So, for me I saw it as an honor to come into the circle with the “elders”! To be asked to share the wisdom and truths of my life experiences in context to my “life’s work”!

It struck me so strongly as I looked out at the sea of faces, that there before me were decades of life experiences filled with struggles, success, failures, tenacity, times of grief and pain, as well as joy and excitement! It was a village of elders holding a space of hope and peace for future generations. There was a knowing amongst themselves that each of them held pearls of wisdom and courage that needed to be shared!

Why is it in this culture we are so dismissive of gifts of the young and the wisdom of the “elders”! I realized after it was over and my team reflected on the “talk and share”, that the purpose that day was to remind the “elders”, that they are needed to secure the future of our children-They understood the role they must play to move our society in a positive direction. They understood that we, all of us adults are the past, present and future of our children! We in turn must ask to sit in the circle at their feet, so that we can learn from their life experiences!  It’s beautiful to acknowledge that there is always more truth and knowledge to discover! Life is good!

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

So, Are The Clouds Sending Messages to Us?

Back to the Womb from Whence We Come-

Part Two-

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

“Great Spirit, open our eyes to see beyond what is visible, and soften our hearts to receive what cannot be spoken.”

Today I am sharing in Part 2 of this conversation, what I have researched and explored the relationship and connection between the different African cultural beliefs about the wonderment of nature that is interwoven into their belief systems.  I don’t want to take anything for granted because I know in my “Spirit” there is always still more knowledge and understanding of our humanity and the universe to learn and so much of this information is clothed and held in our history. 

Contrary to the historical and current scenario that has been fed to us by the colonialized factions of the world, Africa was never at any time void of creative genius.  Colonialism did not discover Africa, it intentionally, systematically, and strategically interrupted it.

Africa was full oof memory, rhythm, astronomy, spirit, architecture, healing arts. Language, story, and most distinguishly important, had a sacred relationship with creation.  Well, now there is a crack in this dismissive and retaliatory assaults to the “Motherland”, as Africa has awakened and is awakening one country at a time to the ancestral wisdom that had imposed these false narratives upon its majesty of wealth, resources, culture and ancient heritage. 

The ancestral wisdom and genius is breathing life back into the African lineage through the rhythm of the drums, the songs of the souls, sky watching, oral traditions, ceremony, communal life, and the enduring spirit of the people.  “Revelations” is happening right before our eyes and soon we will not be able to avoid the significance of the womb of our Motherland. 

I feel this awakening within myself as I no longer ignore my own spiritual intuition.  I stay “Present” in my life because I know that this is where and when “Great Spirit” is connecting with me.  I pay attention when something is repeatedly catching my attention.  Africa will become one of the central spiritual anchors because so much ancestral relational wisdom still lives there despite centuries of disruption. 

Our collective humanity must now listen again to the “Motherland”! It must give homage to the “Womb” of our creation and remember parts of itself is abandoned.  For the “Womb” of the “Motherland carries pieces of our soul expression and soul memory.

This “Womb” carries memory. 

This “Womb” protects life.

This “Womb” incubates possibilities.

This “Womb” births civilizations.

This “Womb” nourishes becoming.

Next conversation we will look at a few countries that reside in that Womb” to see how their cultural beliefs are interwoven in the beauty and significance of nature.

Remember-“May we remember that we are never separate from the sky above us, and “Great Spirit” that resides within us, only invited to notice.”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

These are my clouds today straight from Hawaii-              “A Gentle Peace of Mind that Quiets My Soul.”

Back to the Womb from Whence We Come-

Africa The Motherland of Humanity.

Part One-

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

“Great Spirit, open our eyes to see beyond what is visible, and soften our hearts to receive what cannot be spoken.”

There is no way I could bring this series about the “Cloud Messages” to an end or on put on pause without going back to the beginning of our humanity to understand the relationship between our collective ancestors and their relationship with nature.  I recognize Africa to be the “Womb” of our humanity and that to understand this significance I am feeling with nature-clouds- as being intimately involved in trying to communicate with us, I had to go back to the beginning. 

Many African cosmologies preserved relational awareness that see human beings as not above creation, but as human beings being within it.  I think this is one of the spiritual elements that our modern civilization desperately needs.  The clouds, as are other elements in nature, are trying to get our attention.  I believe this energetic connection is, if for no other reason, that we have a shared humanity through atmospheric connections.

What is so beautiful about many of the African traditions is that there is no separation between nature, Spirit, community, governance, healing, and their cosmology.  They see the sky as being alive.  They see clouds as symbolizing ancestral nearness, divine movement, emotional and spiritual atmosphere, transition between worlds, and preparation for blessings or correction of something that is not in sync with Nature or Spirit.

 We have through our reliance on modern technology disconnected ourselves from our relational connection and understanding of aspects of nature like the cycles, seasons, awareness of the sky, ancestral memory which lent us to have a reciprocal relationship with nature. 

In our African cosmology we saw clouds representing hope, deliverance, divine shelter, mourning, and freedom.  In many oral traditions throughout Africa, storms and skies often mirror human emotional or communal states.  They saw storms before transformation, clouds as carriers of memory, rain as grief and renewal, thunder as awaking, and mist as mystery. Nature was read symbiotically and relationally.

In Part 2 of this conversation, we will research and explore the relationship and connection between the different African cultural beliefs about the wonderment of nature that is interwoven into their belief systems.  I don’t want to take anything for granted because I know in my “Spirit” there is always still more knowledge and understanding of our humanity and the universe to learn and so much of this information is clothed and held in our history.

Remember- “that we are never separate from the sky above us, and “Great Spirit” that resides within us, only invited to notice.”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

My “Clouds” today from my balcony view. It’s like heaven on earth.  I feel blessed and cared for.         

Ashè “Great Spirit” Ashè!

Fallen from Grace, or Embraced by Grace?

Fallen from Grace, or Embraced by Grace?

The condition of the human race-

It Should be about the “Embrace” of Grace!

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.


Truthfully, we need to answer God’s call for peace and love! The human race has fallen from grace and lost its humanity! If not now, when? Thousands of years! Thousands of opportunities! And still, we do not grow and evolve in our spiritual essence, which is God’s intention for our creation! It is why we come here  from our heavenly existence.

The link between that plane of eternity and our earthly existence is acknowledging what our purpose is and executing the c0created destiny plan.  Somehow, we just can’t seem to express our divinity collectively!  We lose each other and judgment becomes the core of how we relate to each other.  Judgment does not yield healing and without healing there is no transformation and growth. 

I think one of the missing links is our inability to look beyond our cultural rituals and practices for answers on how to heal and sustain the “goodness” and “gifts” that are inherit in our design.  Do we see people from what they demonstrate merely by their physicality, what they expound verbally, or by their outward behavior? 

There is so much more involved in “who” we are!  We need to search for and care for the “soul essence” of each other.  It starts during childhood and must be nurtured throughout our lives.  It is like “catering” to our humanity in each other.  Serving each other daily with love and attention.  Calling each other out when we have missed a step in our gait that does not serve us well. It is engaging with one another, praying for each other, being a safe place for one another.  I guess I say this a lot in my “notes to humanity”,-blogging, but it is a message that is heavy on my heart. 

 I know we can make a difference in each other’s lives, and that by doing so we are planting the seeds for a better world for our children.  I found this picture on Facebook, and it stays with me in my dreams and prayers.  I believe the principles of this ritual holds a key to healing and guiding each other through those events that make us feel that we have “fallen from Grace”. Can we offer the “embrace of Grace”, instead of the stigma of “Falling from Grace”? Think about this please and let’s engage in a conversation!

In certain regions of South Africa, when someone does something wrong, he/she is taken to the center of the village and surrounded by his tribe for two days while they speak of all the good he/she has done. They believe each person is good, yet sometimes we make mistakes, which is really a cry for help. They unite in this ritual to encourage the person to reconnect with his/her true nature. The belief is that unity and affirmation have more power to change behavior than shame and punishment. This is known as “Ubunta”- “humanity towards others”.  Can you imagine parenting with these principles?

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

No More Crimes Against Humanity!

No More Crimes Against Humanity!

Children see and recognize the beauty of the world; they just need us to save guard them and the world they are inheriting.

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

 This blog was written previously about the children landing at our borders and are now living in camps – separated from their families. Now I am re-visiting this because I am so disturbed and hurt about what is happening in the Ukraine, Gaza, Sudan, Venezuela, Cuba and all over the planet where we are engaged in over 22 wars worldwide.   The plight of the people-families and of course THE CHILDREN have to be a global concern!

It has to stop! These wars of aggression and greed on the part of countries that are being run by tyrants clothed in greed and supremacy, must be dealt with.  We cannot sit in our homes comfortably and live as though this tyranny does not impact our lives.  We know that children are suffering.  We know what is fostering and supporting these crimes against humanity as well as the genocide that is happening right before our eyes.  There must be a united front to demand that those responsible for this terrorism that is devastating the lives of children, be stopped!

I can’t begin to tell you how devastated I am thinking about the children that are being snatched from their mother’s arms. What is going on in America? Have we lost sight of our core values, or was I mistaken in thinking we were a beacon light in the world standing for justice and compassion for all of humanity. I guess it was merely a smoke screen to hide who a large majority of people are in this country. I should have known better when I look at the truth of our history.

When I read the pages of people’s lives that have endured slavery, turned away from the shores of our country because they were people of color and we didn’t want to get involved. Native Americans whose land we stole and who’s lives and culture we destroyed. The Japanese camps, the homeless on our streets, the mentally and emotionally ill citizens that roam our streets in live in the dark cold bowels of the hell we allow them to squatter in.

Where are the politicians? Where are the educators? Where are the concerned parents? Where are our religious leaders and institutions that profess to care and serve these huddled masses all over the world? Where are we, the ordinary citizens of this global society. I am afraid that this act of kidnapping children from their parents, hides acts of human trafficking.

People, we have a responsibility to call out the people in so call power, the people who are supposed to hold God’s truth to share with mankind, the people who educate our children, the people who are supposed to protect us, the people of wealth, and just you and me,  that are supposed to be awake in our lives and have a conscious to do the following:
Stand up to crimes against humanity!
Stand up to those who can institute change!
Speak Up and hold people accountable!
Show up in love, respect, compassion and passion to be agents of change.  If we don’t take care of our children and families, society will crumble.

I know this is a heavy topic and might be uncomfortable to listen to, but I don’t have a choice.  I know that my life’s purpose is to advocate for children.  I know that children are the most precious gift that has been gifted to our humanity.  I know I have a responsibility to be true to what “Great Spirit” has instilled in my soul, so I do not apologize for speaking my truth for what is the purpose of our life if we hide our gifts and shelter our truth.

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

There Are No Holy Wars!

There is a New Dawn Forth Coming Steeped in Unity of Spirit, Grace, Compassion, and Agape Love for Our Humanity.

 ***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

We have to stand on the promises of “Great Spirit” that goodness resides in the depths of our soul expression.  We were not envisioned and created to be separate from the “One Source that not only created us but intentionally gave us the breath of life from its breath. The killing and hate in our world cannot be justified as a “Holy War” because in the eyes of “Great Spirit”, there are no holy wars.  

There are no wars that justify being holy. What the world is engaged in now is Spiritual warfare! People it is about the evil grounded and expressed by all that seeks to separate us from our true identity and from our Divine Creator- The One Source”- “Great Spirit”-God.  These mutations of these soulless beings that stride to separate us are grounded in-

The actual physical, emotional, and spiritual-Separation from God- “The One Source”- “Great Spirit”-

Ignorance

Greed

Ethnocentrism

Racial supremacy

Poverty

Hunger for food to nourish both body and soul

Disenfranchisement

Mental and emotional illness

Fear of loss of something that is impossible to hold on to anyway!

Righteous indignation

Isolation

Alternative facts and truth

The Me-Myself-and I syndrome that blinds us to the needs of others.

Soulless beings that have forfeited the divine purpose of their earthly existence!

Ideology that we are no longer “our brother’s keeper”

You know in your “Spirit” when something is not of “God”-

You know in your “Spirit” what evil looks like and feels like.

We are being bombarded by that vibration every day, all day long, from every arena that they can infuse themselves into to cause distraction and chaos.

It might seem that the elements that ascribe to this intention of separation are having a field day right now, but as soon as we figure out that ultimately God is in charge and that love, peace, and the gift of life is in it’s self God’s power within us, we will rise up with wings of angels and reclaim this earth and all that God has endowed humanity with and evil will diminish until all there is -is God! Yes- God is love and all there is -is Love!

Wake up in your life and help to usher in that love- 

Speak truth and ethics!

Speak love and respect!

Speak compassion and patience!

Speak it and be it and the vibration that each of us resound will reverberate globally and shift the current that is destroying our planet and deconstructing the divinity of our souls!

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

Women of Compassionate Spirits

A Global “Call to Action”! # 13-Renewed

The Message Today is-Fearlessly Fearless-

Walking in the Footsteps of Our Ancestors

The Sacred Space for Transformative Agreements

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

 I am quietly yet intentionally observing the rising up of women in all areas of our society.  I don’t think people realize and are aware of what has been happening as women infiltrate the spaces that are usually saved for and run by men.  It amuses me because even though I know it was no small thing for we as women to be able to hold positions of power and influence, it seems from the outside looking in, that it has just happened effortlessly and almost in a rather magical way. 

No big recognition and celebrative acknowledgment, just a lot of behind-the-scenes preparation, strategic planning, and their genius at work.  It is so rewarding and inspiring to witness this mobility and accomplishments of women not just sitting at the “Table” or demolishing the “Sacred Ceiling” but actually positioned in places and spaces that impact our lives on a local, national, and global level.

 They bring that uniqueness of their carefully crafted divine gifts to usher into a situation or challenge a perspective that is more deeply in tune to the laws of the universe, and if they have really done the work that they were ordained to do, they bring in a spiritual essence of compromise, compassion, openness to being an “active listener”, and hopefully an sense of humility -not to be confused with a lack of self-esteem and self-love, but just to the point where it allows others to feel that their contributions are worthy of being considered. 

It is truthfully a balancing act that when done authentically and in earnest, has the potential of healing situations that might otherwise seem hopeless.  I am by no means making a blanket statement that all women fall into this category.  It takes a lot of work to come into the purpose for which you are divined to be.  It starts with an awakening to who you are in the eyes of “Great Spirit” and takes a recommitment to be the “YOU” that you were designed to be and then a willingness to step into the footsteps of your ancestors.

We were meant to be  guided and mentored on this path to bring to light not just the potential of who women can be and what women can do to enhance the nature and behavior of our lost and misdirected  humanity, but we are in fact “answering a ‘Call to Action’, that “Great Spirit” is moving in us to fulfill the original design of how humanity should function.  “Great Spirit” is awakening our memory.

We need each other and we need time and space to support each other.  I am proposing that women all over the world start in their families and communities “Women Sacred Circles” where women that are seeking to be in alignment with “Great Spirit” come together to formulate “Transformative Agreements” that speak to how we can nurture ourselves so that we might nurture and support in each other.

I would like to challenge the women in these sacred circles to commune on issues we are facing in their families, communities, their country, and globally and connect the dots as to how the issues that are plaguing us as individuals and as a collective humanity are challenges that have answers if we but work together in harmony and alignment with not just each other but in alignment and in connection with “Great Spirit” who sees all, hears all, and knows all. 

This is how the healing will begin, and we will evolve  as a humanity that is grounded in being our highest selves.  WE are walking in the footsteps of our ancestors, and we are fearlessly fearless.  We know that we are loved and protected by them.  Move in grace and beauty with the genius of your spirit and what can be accomplished is beyond our imagination.

We know that there is a united energy that is trying to silence us and remove us from positions where we are needed, but as the Negro Spiritual says,

“WE Shall Not Be Moved,  We Shall Not Be Moved,

Just like a tree that’s planted by the waters,

We Shall NoT Be Moved”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

Simple Elements on How to Create a Beautiful World!

Eleven Elements That Are the Ingredients to Sustain Our Humanity- According to the Dalai Lama

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

📌 Dalai Lama Quotes: On February 25, 2014 I had the pleasure and honor of hearing the Dalai Lama share his wisdom with us on what we need to be in the world. These are my reflections to his wisdom.

Date: February 25, 2014 

Subject: Dalai Lama Quotes

1. Be kind whenever possible.

1a. (Beth Evans adds: This involves practicing being your highest self which is a life long discipline and promotes mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well being.)

2. In the practice of tolerance one’s enemy is the best teacher.

2a. ( I have an aversion to the word tolerance as being a misfit in terms of the divinity of the human design. I think that compassion for those that live in a space that is not their highest expression and puts them at odds with other fellow “human beings” requires us to step away from fear and judgement and respond with compassion and to hold an intention for them that they release their fear and sense of “not being enough” and embrace the fullness of being loved and accepted for who they have the potential of showing up as”. This is the practice of “allowing”.


3. Love and compassion are necessities not luxuries, without them humanity cannot survive.

3a. (Beth Evans adds: Cultivating humanity in ourselves and supporting it in the growth and development of others is really our divine purpose.

#6 Our Collective Human Expereince-Look to The Skies From Whence Cometh Our Understanding and Connection to the Spiritual World.

Look to The Skies From Whence Cometh Our Understanding and Connection to the Spiritual World.

Listen-Reflect- Receive

Looking to Our Ancestors for the Answers

Our Collective Human Experiences

These are my “Clouds” today. I see them clearly posing their majesty above our human constructs.

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

 “Great Spirit, open our eyes to see beyond what is visible, and soften our hearts to receive what cannot be spoken.”

In this world where we struggle to find common ground, common interest, common values and the ability to communicate effectively with one another, maybe this experience or practice of “Cloud Watching”, could be connected to some of the ancient traditions and used as a means of connecting us, or for some cultures, reconnecting us to “Source”.  Maybe it is a simple practice that lends itself to calling us to “Stop”, “Look” and “Listen”, to more nuances of wonder and beauty in our life.

 Maybe we can come to an understanding that “Source” – “Great Spirit” is trying in a multitude of ways to “Get our Attention” or “Show us how we are not alone on this journey, that there is love and protection operating in our life, but that we are not “Still enough” or “Cognizant enough” to recognize and appreciate the signs or messages that are every present with us.

We have to be intentional about making a sacred time and space to go into communion with “Great Spirit” so that we don’t miss the messages or confirmations that “Great Spirit” has for each of us as individuals and as a collective humanity.  I really believe when you live a life grounded in gratitude, everything in you and around you looks and feels different from the super imposed illusional life that the systems and fraudulent elements of this world try to suck us into.  It is living from this vantage point that we find each other and begin to find common ground on which to build a communicative, compassionate and humane humanity. 

Find your sacred space and time today.  Find your “Cloud” to gaze at and in that moment listen for the still quiet voice that rises up within you to communicate with “Great Spirit”.  Trust me, you’ll feel a peace that surpasses all human understanding, and a joy that feeds your soul. 

Remember-“May we remember that we are never separate from the sky above us, only invited to notice.”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.
