I had a revelation the other night, and it changed the way that I live.
My evening began simply enough: I was cooking dinner for my family when, all of a sudden, I felt my awareness expand. At that instant, I realized that I was creating everything at that moment, and way more than just dinner. I knew with certainty that I have always been creating every experience I have ever been through.
Now this was something I’d thought was true, but had never felt with my whole being. There, at the kitchen stove, it was obvious. And it was life-changing.
That night, I knew that we make choices at every moment. I saw that all along I’d been creating exactly the situations and boundaries that served my underlying wants. But oh, what limits I had put in place to protect my thin skin from this rough world! So much of what I had done in the past was to shelter, defend or justify myself. Now, I could do so much more.
Specifically, I saw that I had created a rift in a particular family relationship, because I wanted distance. Even though I had been in pain for years about the state of things, it turns out that I’d created exactly what I wanted, because the old relationship was not serving me in basic ways. The rift, however, was serving me, but now I could ask myself, “What do I want to create moving forward?” I was not stuck with the current dynamic. It was in my hands to change it.
We decide everything, whether we’re aware of it or not. We can make conscious choices that allow our souls to bloom. You are creating at every moment anyway, so make it what you truly want.
Every time you choose to maintain a negative thought, you invite strife when you could have harmony. You are closing yourself with lack instead of opening with the abundance of love. The truth is that it’s all completely up to you. You have made the experiences that you are now living, and they reflect your beliefs. They also include certain challenges that you put in place for growth before you ever got here.
During these times of great transition, your abilities to manifest are increasing exponentially. So ask yourself throughout your day, “What do I want to create?” Then, have awareness that you are manifesting at every moment with your thoughts, and choose what you truly desire for yourself.
Keep in mind that when you let fears, worries, and limits take over, that is what you are creating. It all starts on the inside, not the outside. Most of all, remember to create from your limitless heart instead of your rational mind.
My experience in the kitchen made me realize how often I create unconsciously, thus sabotaging myself in the process. If this is something that you do as well, know that you have the power to change it. Take a loving look at your life and ask yourself, “What am I creating, and why?” If you’re not happy with what you see, you can make choices that serve you in higher ways. I will be over here doing the same, and cheering us on towards a more harmonious dream. Let us build a beautiful future for humanity, with every loving creation we make.
Thank you. Thank you for your divine message and reminder that we live what we create & we are creating constantly.
Thanks so much for being here! It took me so long to see it, but it feels so empowering to no longer say, “Why me?” ~S
Love this…… Thanks!
Much appreciation Conrad!
Insightful as always. Ah, if only we could accept that our lives are composed of that which we create.
SO good to have you here Hawk! It is so hard to accept, isn’t it? And yet, so easy …
Awesome story and message of hope! This experience that you had are usually far and few between. It’s a rare opportunity and a truly great one. Thanks again, Suzy.
Thanks so much! Yes, aren’t those rare opportunities to be relished! But, I find that same magic in each present moment, if only I allow myself to. So hard in this world! But it’s right here always.
I can’t wait to catch up with your amazing blog very soon!
You used a key word in your reply to Joshua. That word is ALLOW, we human beings have so much internal resistance to allowing life to flow as we create it in our minds, our hearts and our words.
Your message is a divine one that we all would be better human beings if we listened to what we created. Thank you for this post!!
Thanks so much for pointing out ALLOW, a concept you’ve taught me to pay attention to. Ah, the internal resistance! I know it so well. Your comment reminds me to create with the flow instead.
Great post… I believe that being aware of what is happening in the mind can make wonders. Our mind becomes so sharp and we can still remain in peace in any situation.
Thank you for being here and sharing.
I was just wrestling with my mind this morning! And I’ll take your advice to heart. I’m trying to live from my being more instead of in my head, but I also know that my mind (right brain to be exact) is somehow key to my personal evolution. ~Suzy
Suzy has opened me to a more complete understanding here with this just beautiful sharing of her story – I have been really beating myself up for negative thoughts arising in the mind and questioning where they come from and judging there must be negativity in me; but Suzy expresses something here just so perfectly –
Every time you choose to maintain a negative thought, you invite strife when you could be choosing harmony –
I have come to know: The thoughts will always arise but it is in deciding to maintain them that we expand their force. Wow, I’m quite blown away, a joyful tear forms in mine eye
