What is Dream Building? I learned a technique from Kevin Trudeau's 13 hour CD series, Your Wish is Your Command. This program is the ultimate foundation to self understanding. If anybody would like to learn how to use your thoughts to attract any desire you might have, come see me and I see to it that you receive your own set of CD's. It would take years and thousands of blogs to explain everything Kevin is able to in this CD set. Let me tell you a little bit about Kevin before we get started on the lesson. Why? The very first lesson this man teaches is who do you listen to? When you are seeking out new information how do you know what is true and what is sudo or false, made up? We must seek information from those who have evidence in their experience. As Kevin puts it, If you want to learn how to cook a souffle don't learn from the short order cook, you have to learn from the top Chef. Why? Because he has evidence in his experience, not some made up story about someone who never existed, but real life experience that his "methods" work. I could write 30 blogs just on this one subject, it is extremely important. Kevin is the head of an organization called Global Information Network. We can get into that another time. He has made billions using his technique throughout his life, but more important than money, this man is blissfully happy and raising the collective conscious of our world through his teachings. What he teaches was not created by him, but it was passed down to him from his Masters, his teachers. Listen to those who have achieved what you want in real life. Keep thinking about it, it is far deeper than you know. Besides, you don't know what you don't know, so give it a chance. You can always learn more.
Dream Building is an exercise that really gets the juices flowing! It's a lot like window shopping, but its done with the heart, and has nothing to do with the price. I'll explain how I start my day and I think you'll begin to understand : D. I wake up in the morning and drink atleast two glasses of water and take lots of deep breathes (from the stomach) to really presence myself and come into my day. A little bit of stretching is always in order, but then we are off to Dream Building! What do you like? What makes you happy? What something you've always wanted to do? Somebody you have always wanted to meet? Who's someone you admire, and want to be like? Maybe something you want to have more of in your life? These questions help you to really focus on what you want. Be as specific as you want with these desires, or as general as you'd like. When I wake up I put on a video of someone I have on my list of "mentors" simply, people who have what I want : ) I am a health freak, so when I woke up this morning I saw a 5lb bag of Goji berries and my heart began to sing! All these thoughts about what I could do with them in terms of raw foods came into my mind. I thought about sifting through them with my hands. I thought about chewing them and their delicious taste. Most importantly I was EXCITED, I was HAPPY, I was feeling amazing just at the thought of these berries. This is the secret to dream building. The objective is to stimulate your mind with information and objects and people you would like to manifest in your experience. Forget about the prices for once, this is not about looking at what you want and feeling like you can't have it, that's going to push what you want further away. Go on a rampage of appreciation for these people, places, and things. Next I watched Dan McDonald, a raw foods nut make juices and smoothies for people in his home. Don't forget about who do you listen to. I can't stress enough how important it is to get the right information! As I observed Dan's behavior I began to smile. I could here people laughing in the back, everyone was having a good time. Then I IMAGINED MYSELF in that room. I could feel what it was like to be there, my heart was singing! We are so fortunate to have the internet in our life time. It allows us to observe others without having to be right next to them, although that would be much better. This exercise is always a ton of fun! If you aren't feeling good about something, maybe you feel as though you can't get it, you must learn to refocus your thoughts. Forget about whether or not you have the resources to get it now. Maintain a focus of already having it, being there, using it, loving it. Get EXCITED!!! Try out the technique, it comes fairly natural. If you keep feeling good about these people, places, and items I promise you they will find their way into your experience. This is how our thoughts work. When we charge our thoughts with a feeling of love, we pull the subject of these thoughts into our experience. When we think about them with fear, we push them away. We also choose whether we want to look at these things through the eyes of fear, or through the eyes of love. You Choose. Listen to those who have what you want. Observe and feel good around them : D. Have fun Dream Building!
Love Dave

My Truth
Upon waking this morning I experienced a faintly familiar feeling I hadn't felt since I was but a child. In this moment I could look back into past life times. I could not see context, but what I did see helped me to understand what my purpose is in this lifetime. Many of us are beginning to remembering (learn) a path that has been walked by few in our recorded history. I see this to be the great shift taking place, that many have foreseen. (2012) These few people who have remembered who they are have risen to great heights in our society and are world renown. Among these men and women are Mother Teresa, Jesus Christ, Mahatma Gandhi, The Dali Lama, The Buddah, and many more whose names are only written in the minds of Elders. All of these people shared one thing in common, they understood their truth, and lived it. They understood that our perceptions are merely a distraction. That an absolute reality exist behind our opinions, preconceptions, and beliefs. This absolute reality is protected, only those who are pure may see its beauty. Guilt is the veil that covers this world within. Love is the password. These beautiful souls came into this existence to remind others of their truth, to show others the way. They came to wake people up from the dream world of their mind. You see these souls remembered the way in a past life, and they returned to help show others, to lead the way.
When I woke up this morning I felt an incredible feeling. I awoke knowing that this is not the first life I have lived. I remembered that I was in a pure state in a previous life. It's hard for me to convey this feeling of conviction that consumed my body. It was the strongest truth I have ever felt. I remembered that I too came into this existence to live as Jesus did. Now when I say this, for some reason I make a judgement that others might mistake what I am saying for an inflated ego, but I promise you truth like this can not be mistaken. I believe I am here to show others the way, after having fully remembered it myself. You see, enlightenment, returning to the natural state of harmony, is not something you can will or learn. It is something that you must accept in order to understand. You must be willing to let go of all your constricting beliefs and enter a vulnerable state. In this state you will have everything, you will feel like the world, not a victim of it. I promise to use my knowledge to act as a mirror for all of you. To help each of you see the truth within yourselves. To free you from your own illusions so that you may see the light. I promise to help each and every one of you wake up and realize you have been perfect this entire time. To teach you the energy you give to dis-empowering thoughts is the very cause of your inability to see your own perfection. This greatness is dormant within all of you, you know. I am destined to raise to great heights and gain planetary influence. I only wish to serve you. To show you the way. Fame and fortune have no meaning to me. All I care about is loving and being loved.

Motivation and Initiative
Each of these Ideas are useless without the company of the other. This morning I was watching a video of a very dear friend of mine, his name is Troy Casey. This man partnered with a new business that supports the indigenous peoples of the Amazon Rain Forest called Amazon Herbs. Before he joined this company he was modeling in his hometown trying to make a living and just survive. He is now one of the top members of Amazon Herbs having spread these incredible supplements across our country. Troy has a wonderful family that are truly blessed to be part of his experience, as he is blessed to be a part of theirs. Every morning you can count on seeing a picture of the delicious and nutritious juices he concocts. His drinks are loaded with fresh herbs from the Amazon. I sit here writing about this man today because he is a major inspirational force in my life. I met this man in California at a Festival and he made a huge impact on me. Troy is helping to preserve the rainforest of this earth while spreading the word of good health. He is living proof that you can make a living doing what you love, that you can experience anything you want in life, you just have to want it enough. I always see videos of him and his family laughing and smiling. Some mornings you will find pictures of rock sculptures he has created, or a video of a shaman he has visited. To me, Troy is the ultimate example. He is in incredible shape, supremely health, always happy and smiling, and most importantly he is bettering the collective conscious of our planet with his existence. I have noticed two very admirable traits in this man. The first trait that I admire is his Initiative. He could not have done anything without being his own driving force. Nothing is possible without Initiative, it is the first step. One day he decided that settling for less was not who he was. He learned that the scarcity paradigm does not serve man at all (The scarcity paradigm is created when one constantly focuses on the lack in his/her life). He was willing to take the first step in creating the beautiful life he lives. He didn't wait for someone to hand him this life, he wanted it so bad that he was willing to do anything to create it, and he did. He is a super hero in my eyes. The second trait I noticed was his motivation to achieve his personal goals. He is always, ALWAYS, pumped for what is next. He is ALWAYS (He is consistent, hmmm, think about it) traveling somewhere, meeting new people, trying new things. He is forever expanding his awareness so that he may grow. I've had the pleasure of talking with Mr. Troy Casey a handful of times and after every conversation I felt like I could accomplish more. I felt that I was capable of anything after watching him talk in California. Thank you Troy.
I think it is very important that we all understand but two of the infinite messages that Troy will be sending us. You can't wait around for some magical chariot to pick you up and bring you to your dreams. You have to be willing to take the first step in coming closer to your dreams. Whether you want to skydive, write music, or travel the world, YOU and only you can take this first step. Initiative means nothing without Motivation. If you take the first step and feel like you can't do it, what do you think your next step will be? Motivation means nothing without Initiative. You can have all the motivation in the world but if you aren't willing to take the first step, if you aren't willing to focus such grand and powerful energy, it will go to waste. We must develop a burning desire for these goals in our lives. We must stop at nothing to achieve them! I see this to be what Troy Casey did to develop the business he now operates. He didn't settle for less... He aspired to be something, someone, greater! He never gave up on his dream. Take initiative and stay motivated, this man is proof that we can accomplish anything we want in life, no matter how great the depth of our dreams. He is a living example of the potential power each one of us has. You can Dammit! : ) I see so many people who have convinced themselves that they are going to be stuck in the same shitty situation forever. These people will always be waiting for a ticket out, until they realize they were the ticket they have been waiting for. We should always strive to be greater. We have one life time to experience all these dreams we create! When are you going to start? Don't wait till you are old and tired to realize how much you could have accomplished. Go out there and make it happen! You can! : D

A Course in Miracles
This is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the time you take it is coluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish the curriculum. It means only that you may elect what you want to take at a given time. The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite. This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way.
Nothing real can be threatened
Nothing unreal exists
Here in lies Peace.
This is the opening statement to the single most important piece of text I have ever laid my eyes on. This book contains all the necessary information to break down any illusion you may hold in your mind. Due to the value I put on this text, I felt it was absolutely essential to share it with as many people as I can. The opening statement is describing that which I have in the articles "Eternal Light" and "Enlightenment" This book was created to help you see your own light again. Why is seeing your light so important? Why do I value it so highly? I value enlightenment so highly because in this state of mind we get to create a relationship with something so powerful and profound, words cannot describe it. You witness love so pure within yourself and every person around you that perfection is all you can see. Everything you think, say, and do becomes a beautiful opportunity to strengthen your relationship with the loving energy within. This is not the path for everyone. For those who wish to remember their truth and live with a constant awareness of love, please read on.
Mir a cle /'mirikel/
Noun. A surprising and welcome event that is not explicable by natural or scientific laws and is considered to be divine.
A highly improbably or extraordinary event, development, or accomplishment.
These are the Principles of Miracles, as stated in "A Course in Miracles"

These are the Principles of Miracles, as stated in "A Course in Miracles"
- There is no order of difficulty among miracles. One is not "harder" or "bigger" than another. THey are all the same. All expressions of love are maximal.
- Miracles as such do not matter. The only thing that matters is their Source, which is far beyond human evaluation.
- Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. The real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense, everything that comes from love is a miracle.
- All miracles mean life, and God (they use the word God to represent what I call the Isness, what makes you, you. If you were to collect all of this Isness in the entire universe, you could call that energy God) is the Giver of life. His voice will direct you very specifically. You will be told that which you need to know.
- Miracles are habits and should be involuntary. They should not be under conscious control. Consciously selected miracles can be misguided.
- Miracles are natural. When they do not occur, something has gone wrong, something is out of order.
- Miracles are everyone's right, but purification is necessary first.
- Miracles are healing because they supply a lack in that they are performed by those who temporarily have more for those who temporarily have less.
- Miracles are a kind of exchange. Like all expressions of love, which are always miraculous in the true sense, the exchange reverses the physical laws. They bring more love both to the giver and the receiver.
- The use of miracles as spectacles to induce belief is wrong, or better, is a misunderstanding of their purpose. They are really used for and by believers.
- Prayer is the medium of miracles. Prayer is the natural communication of the created with the Creator. Through prayer love is received, and through miracles love is expressed.
- Miracles are thoughts. Thoughts can represent lower-order or higher-order reality. This is the basic distinction between intellectualizing and thinking. One makes the physical and the other creates the spiritual, and we believe in what we make or create.
- Miracles are both beginnings and endings. They thus alter the temporal order. They are always affirmations of rebirth which seem to go back but really go forward. They undo the past in the present and thus release the future.
- Miracles bear witness to truth. They are convincing because they arise from conviction. Without conviction they deteriorate into magic, which is mindless and therefore destructive, or rather the uncreative use of the mind.
- Each day should be devoted to miracles. The purpose of time is to enable man to learn to use it constructively. Time is thus a teaching device and a means to an end. It will cease when it is no longer useful in facilitating learning.
- Miracles are teaching devices for demonstrating that it is more blessed to give than receive. They simultaneously increase the strength of the giver and supply strength to the receiver.
- Miracles are the Transcendence of the body. They are sudden shifts into invisibility, away from a sense of lower-order reality. That is why they heal.
- A miracle is a service. It is the maximal service one individual can render another. It is a way of loving your neighbor as yourself. The doer recognizes his own and his neighbor's inestimable worth simultaneously.
- Miracles make minds one in God. They depend on cooperation because the Sonship (The human collective) is the sum of all the souls created. Miracles therefore rest on the laws of eternity, not of time.
- Miracles reawaken the awareness that the spirit, not the body, is the alter of truth. This is the recognition that leads to the healing powers of the miracle.
- Miracles are natural expressions of forgiveness.
- Miracles are associated with fear only because of the fallacious belief that darkness can hide. Man believes that what he cannot see does not exist, and his physical eyes cannot see in the dark. This is a very primitive solution and has led to a denial of the Spiritual Eye. The escape from darkness (Lack of light, Lack of love) involves two stages. 1. The recognition that darkness cannot hide. This step usually entails fear. 2. The recognition that there is nothing you want to hide, even if you could. -This brings escape from fear.
- Miracles rearrange perception and place the levels of perception into true perspective. This heals at all levels because sickness comes from confusing the levels. When you have become willing to hide nothing, you will not only be willing to enter into communion but will also understand peace and joy. Your commitment is not yet total, and that is why you still have more to learn than to teach. When your equilibrium stabilizes, you will be able to teach as much as you learn, which will give you the proper balance. Meanwhile, remember that no effort is wasted, for unless you remember this, you cannot avail yourselves of my efforts, which are limitless. Only eternity is real (we are participating in a dream! : D ) Why not use the illusion of time constructively?

Attention! *Facepalm*
I learned another extremely valuable lesson just a minute ago. I have been feeling out of for a day or so now. With the new awareness I had gained, a lot of it coming from my previous articles, I could not understand why I was experiencing resistance (fear) again. I knew none of the silly thoughts in my mind were real. I was so confused as to why I was experiencing resistance again. I ran away from this feeling for an entire day, pretending it wasn't there, because according to my own teachings, it wasn't. I tried to meditate to calm my mind, but I ended up pulling at my hair and filling with frustration. I picked up a piece of paper and agreed this was it. I was going to get to the bottom of this if it took me all night. I reread an article and the words started pouring.
I wrote "What do you want? "
A: I want to constantly experience this world through the eyes of love.
"Do you know how?"
A: Let go completely, but when you are resisting it seems so hard, so far out of reach.
"Where is your attention? Are you looking for more ways to suffer? Are you concentrating on negativity?
A: I guess I am...
LIGHT BULB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : DDDDDDDD BOOM and I exploded with joy!
"Try shifting your focus to happy thoughts, words, and actions"
^ *Facepalm* ^
The very second I admitted to being the creator of this resistance I had a revelation. Your attention, what you are focused on, becomes your experience. First your thoughts, then your words, and last your actions(behavior). If you wanna smile, you don't frown. If you want to rid yourself of any inner conflict simply take your focus off of the negative aspects and start looking at the positive side. Surely you can find one positive aspect! If you are trying to change your habits (say stop smoking) keep your eye on the prize. Keep your attention on being a non-smoker, and forget about the rest. Put your attention on what you want. If you want to be happy, think happy thoughts, If you want to smile show those teeth! I see this same theme reoccurring in my life; for some reason I believed that by suffering (resisting) I would gain happiness at some point or another. Don't laugh at me, check out your life! Hahah : ) How many times have you worried about not having money, not being able to pay a bill? You are focusing on the lack of money you have, when in reality you want more money! Your suffering will not bring you more money. What will bring you more, is when you take your attention off of not having enough and start focusing on having more. Either way you look at it you still have the same amount of money. Why suffer? Its all perspective lady's and gentlemen, its all perspective. This is a classic case of pessimism vs. optimism. Two ways of looking at one thing. Are you gonna choose the one that makes you feel great (Optimism) or are you going to choose the one that makes you worried, scared, and frustrated (pessimism)? You now see why I *face palmed* earlier, what a silly mistake! We have to laugh at ourselves sometimes, it keeps us sane. Keep your eyes on the positive side, it does make a difference. When you fill your mind with negativity all your thoughts will be stained with this goop. Your thoughts determine your words, and your thoughts/words determine your behavior/actions! Behavior and actions determine habits. The most important lesson here is that you try this for yourself. Never take a word I say for granted unless you have experienced it. The second important lesson here is to always keep your attention on the positive, you really can't go wrong. Keep focusing on that love, that beauty! I love you all very much : D

Enlightenment
I have found the Holy Grail in my life. My heart has opened, pouring love like a waterfall. Miracles are constantly happening, more love is forever flowing. In this beautiful and serene state of mind one can realize the perfection that already exists. We are already enlightened, all of us. Our truth, our natural state of being is walking meditation. Our nature is perfection, for all love is maximal. No fear can exist in such pure and perfect light. Not a single thought enters the mind but that of appreciation for such a beauty. We have all tricked ourselves into thinking the fog we walk amidst is our truth. Only intermittently experiencing pockets of light, of pure love. Behind this fog lies the brightest light you will ever gaze your eyes upon, forever shinning. We have covered this light. We have convinced ourselves that we can be without this light, and so a heavy fog rolled in to cover our light, making sure our conviction was made manifest. Without this light to expose our fears they swallow us, and we are left in suffering. In looking to the sky we find no sign of light. Until we become sick and tired of being sick and tired. When we finally surrender, feeling there is nothing left we can do to escape, a single beam of light will shine down. When we decide we want a life without suffering and without fear this light will grow. This light, both gentle and warm gives us hope. It gives us hope that something greater is out there. When one follows this light their heart will open. When one realizes that this light is all that has ever existed, his heart pours love, her eyes fill with light. One learns that the fog that once covered up their divinity was simply an illusion. Our mind is the master of illusion, without the guidance of our heart. In believing these illusions are real, one will experience just that. I believe The Buddah and Jesus Christ were trying to show their disciples that they too were enlightened beings, but their disbelief keep them chained from floating into such divinity. Our nature is the Buddah, It is to live as Jesus Christ did. John Lennon knew his truth, as did Martin Luther King Jr, and as did John F. Kennedy, but we murdered these great leaders in fear that others may remember their light. It takes only this very moment to return to the light, but for some it can take a life time. Some will spend their entire life holding onto frail illusions, and that's okay. Those who are ready to accept their true nature, will when the fruit is ripe. Remember this, you have always been enlightened, for nothing else exists, but one must accept this in their own experience, one must feel, one must sensually experience these truths before he can know. Without this experience these truths can be mistaken for illusions and doubt will cloud the mind. To simply speak of enlightenment, to memorize all the concepts that point to it is not enough. You must feel it, you must remember it. I will forever be a shinning light to show others the way. I love you all very dearly and I can't begin to explain how excited I am to bask in your beauty, in your divinity. This is the most beautiful moment in my entire life.
Love, Dave

Eternal Light
We all posses a light within us. This light is eternal and can never be extinguished. Few people in our recorded history have let this light shine with all its beauty. Among these fellows are Christ, The Buddah, Mahatma Gandhi, John Lennon, and many more. We all know there was something different about these individuals, and I believe I have stumbled upon a very important piece of knowledge. You see these people did not wish to be seen as Gods. They all wanted the everyday man to rise to his potential, to live his fullest. They all carried the same message, You are no different than I. I believe we are all the Buddah and Christ in our heart. I believe this is our natural state of being.
When I was a young boy I knew nothing of the teachings of these men, yet my light was strong. As I passed the age of six and seven everything changed. My light dimmed and I began to forget my true nature. I thought all the ideas in this world were truth. I thought what my school teachers and friends told me were truths. I believed that I was flawed and weak. As I entered my teenage years my sense of self developed. By this point nearly all of the light within me was covered. It had been covered by a great fog. I invited this fog in place of my light, I thought this was my truth. I saw my flaws to be part of me now. I saw the great fear I held inside to be something natural. As I passed through the years I became a compulsive liar. Soon I couldn't remember my own lies and I was lost in a fog so thick it was hard to see my own hands. Every now and then I would be blessed with a glimpse of this light. I thought this was how it all worked, randomly. Sometimes you feel sad, sometimes you feel happy, sometimes you cry, and other times you laugh.
In the absence of my light great fear flourished. Creatures took over my mind, leaving me feeling powerless. Finally I grew sick of this aimless suffering. I caught a glimpse of pure light, a glimpse of truth. I embarked on a journey that seemed impossible. I had been given a shred of hope by my best friend Dan Moxley. He showed me that what I had believed to be my truth all my life, may not in fact be. This tiny light broke through a great sea of thunderous clouds and fog. For only a moment I was protected from all the fears and confusion. The sea was calm for that moment and I saw what needed to be done. This was the greatest gift I have ever received, the gift of awareness. I now knew that something else existed, and that the life I lived was very far from natural. In the beginning I had an extremely hard time accepting this new light. The fear inside of me was like a tape worm. I wanted only what it wanted, and it knew light would destroy it. I spent the next two years clearing the fog in my heart. As time pressed on the clouds began to part. In light these creatures cannot survive, they have no power. My will was tried time and time again. With new awareness comes the great responsibility of change. I can't tell you how many times my light was covered back up again only for me to drown in the darkness bellow the clouds. I can't tell you how many times I felt cursed by this new awareness, as if it were punishment. I would not give up, I could not, for I had seen how beautiful this light was. I witnessed the power of its love.
Everyday I would exposes another illusion created by this great storm and light would take its place. The fears the wrenched my heart burned is such great light. I fought a great many battles in this time, walking away defeated. I learned that this defeat was very important. For without it I knew nothing of the power of personal will.
The truths that I had once grasped so tightly as truth were breaking apart back into dust. I began to learn how powerful we are in service of love. That we may call upon miracles anytime we please so long as our intentions are selfless and loving. I learned that I, only me, can change my ways of thought and action. This light taught me to see the world through the eyes of love. It taught me to take a deep breath and listen instead of yelling in my mind. I now know that this light is all that exists. The clouds that formed earlier in my life were my own creations. I had believed that tricks and illusions were real, and so they were. I have come to understand that all these harmful ideas and fears lived only through my awareness, my attention. We hold onto this darkness because we fear losing it, we fear the coming change. I am here to tell you its okay to let go of these ideas. In fact the very moment you let go of them light will take their place, you will become whole once again.
For so long I was caught in this cycle of birth and death. I would give rise to an idea or a belief about myself. At this moment the idea was born and for that moment it was beautiful! But as the context in my life changed I started to notice that this idea no longer served me. It had become another illusion and so I experienced its death. This death feels like tension, fear, resistance, hate, frustration. I pondered how one could escape such a cycle. We must be ever becoming. Never holding onto any ideas but simply expressing them in the moment. You see attachment to an idea or a belief is the formation of a cloud. These ideas are not you! They are born out of light for that moment and that moment only! The second you believe yourself to be this idea you start the cycle of birth and death again. For some this cycle can last a life time, others a moment.
At this point in my understanding I choose to destroy my remaining ideas about me. I found myself empty, with nothing to say or do, but much to listen to and feel. I discovered a world so beautiful that has shined all my life. I will not give rise to anymore beliefs and preconceptions. I now surrender and listen to my heart. I have not a single penny to my name right now and I am blissfully happy. The belief that money is needed is an illusion. The belief that anything is needed is an illusion. When I walk into a social situation, perhaps nervous that I won't say the right thing, I take a deep breath and let what will happen happen. I will not give rise to these false ideas. Anytime I look at someone and begin to judge, I simply laugh because this idea has no existence. When an unloving thought enters my mind I simply forget it ever arose, fixing my attention back on my heart and the love I feel.
As you clear these beliefs you will discover the most beautiful truths. You will bask in the light of love. Remember that this light will forever shine no matter what you believe your truth to be. But when you accept that this light is your truth all illusions disappear into thin air. It will take great will and love to see this reality. One must want to live like this more than anything else in his/her life if he wishes to experience such clarity and peace. I tell you this, this state of being is natural for us. Idealessness, full surrender, acceptance, these are the qualities of our truth. One day we will all see this light, even if it takes our death.
There are many who walk the same path as I. We are in a time in history right now where this ^ evolution is happening world wide. When every human realizes their inner Buddah, their light. My dear friend Olivia is among the many on this path, her light shines brighter than any I have ever witnessed. http://womanoccupieswithin.blogspot.com/
