Gratitude

"GRATITUDE [grat.i.tude]: Big time buzzword during spiritual awakening phase of planetary evolution, yet often misunderstood.
When you think thoughts of 'thanks,' it's exactly the same as thinking thoughts of having received. And, as is true of all thoughts on the plane of manifestation, they must immediately strive to manifest in your time-space life.
Yet, the only way there can be a manifestation of such thoughts is if you do actually physically receive. And the only way you can actually physically receive is if all of the players and circumstances of your life are literally shifted around and manipulated, without you or them even knowing what's going on, so that you will be predisposed to the right ideas, hunches, connections, and introductions that will deliver you smack into the middle of such manifestations.
And it's all perfectly legal,"

~ The Universe (via Mike Dooley...lol)

I thought this was a cool way of describing how the Universe orchestrates things for us.

Within our control and without fail!

The Truth is Uncompromising.

"The truth is uncompromising. It does not accommodate your preferences. It does not adjust to your desires. Either you accept the moment exactly as it is, or you leave the moment in search of more. God has nothing to offer you other than this moment. The ego can tempt you with so much more."

- Leonard Jacobson

This is the gift that awaits us in present-moment awareness. Heaven on earth.

It has been said that "time" does not exist. It is a construct of the mind to help us function in a time-space reality called life. If we can eliminate the idea of time from our minds and our view of how life is experienced here on earth, we can experience the Now as it continually unfolds.

God has nothing to offer you other than this moment.

It is the ego that has us believe that peace is found somewhere outside of ourselves and this moment. That is the only way the ego can continue to exist. It needs time and space to have a place for you to go with your mind and start thinking. Those places are the past and the future.

"My problems will finally be over and I will experience peace when...

I have enough money saved up to protect me against what can happen in the future."

my spouse stops doing this or treating me like that."

I find a career that I'm happy with."

On and on and on and on.......STOP!

There is nothing outside of this very moment. Anything we think will make us whole in the future will be experienced as another present-moment, another NOW!

Stop the endless chatter of the mind. Stop identifying with the stories it tells. We are not our minds. We are the pure energy of presence and guess when/where the only place we can experience it for ourselves is?

You got it.

Now!

Can I really do this...

Everything begins right NOW...

I'm awakening from the dream I have been caught in since birth. The dream has always seemed so real.

It was a constant flow of thoughts about past and future, with almost no awareness of the present moment.

I am awakening and I want to share what it feels like.

I hope that those of you out there that are also awake will share with me too.
