I Want You to be ruthless

It's 12:03 am. and I've decided to write again. It's been years, but I'm a journalism major among other things. Now, I'd consider myself an inner warrior. I've recently been told by Ms. Almighty Universe that I'm a love spreader, a soulful connector, a healer. So, I'm going to use writing as a way to do so. I'll just let it flow and see where it goes. No specific destination in mind. And it is my hope to connect to you. To spread the love. To lift us both up...

Surrender. Such a wonderful concept. Seems so easy. But what in the world is it? Trust that God's got it all worked out for you. Letting go, relaxing into it all. I'm a big fan and student of "The Course in Miracles." Today I was reading that if we could just remember that we didn't create ourselves, life would be a whole lot easier. We would just follow the voice of our creator within our hearts and be lead to love. After all, we ARE love. Instead, we have this mad idea that we have the control. So we listen to the crazy voices in our heads and take them as the truth.

It is our task and responsibility to do whatever we can do to connect to our heart. Where all the answers lie. Your happiness and the happiness of the world depends on it. How do I do that you say? Well, some healers suggest being aware of your thoughts and just stepping back and seeing them like a movie to lessen their power. Some suggest meditation. Some say do whatever connects you to your soul. Its different for all of us but connect to that inner guide within that makes you feel connected, divine, in the flow. Pray. Ask how. But once you find that voice, that connection to the divine, that state of surrender to your true nature. do whatever you can to stay there. On hard days, don't give up. Keep the faith. Know you aren't alone. We all have our stuff and we are all trying to find our way.

It just breaks my heart to think there are many of us listening to these crazy lies in our heads. These subconscious thoughts were put there by many people over the course of our lives and just filed away as truth. But they are just stinky garbage. Who wants to listen to that? They aren't the real you. Just know that. And hold onto it for dear life. And surrender to the fact that you are beautiful. You are great. You are limitless and free. And find that quite voice inside that validates all of the above. Be ruthless. Gently ruthless my friends. Sending love and a giant wish for connection. Jamie
