Just Be it!


Stop chasing after stuff and just BE, just BE it! Your sense of power doesn’t come from the stuff from having the stuff it comes from who you are! Rev. Deborah L. Johnson

I read this passage today from Mastin Kipp, a young spiritual writer “If I'm a good person, then good things will happen to me. If I follow all the rules, then I will be rewarded. If something bad happened to me, then there must be something wrong with me. If I experience pain, then what's happening is bad. If I experience pleasure, then what's happening is good. But the problem is human logic, understanding, and our point of view is extremely limited. If we truly understood this, we wouldn't be so quick to apply meaning to the events of our lives. Just because we feel good or bad in the moment doesn't mean what's happening is good or bad”

It got me to thinking about this project that I am working on. Why? The people of the North of Uganda were not bad people yet they endured some of the most trying circumstances! Out of these circumstances have spawned this project. There were a few people who said I will not let these circumstances define me! I want a better life  so let me not chase after it, let me create one and whosoever want to come and join are free to do so! They became what they wanted!

She told me that everyone thought she was crazy to set up a place a month or two after the war ended, they thought that Kony would return! She was determined! Am I willing to do things even though people think I am crazy? I am now! Am I willing to take risks? I am now Am I willing to follow my gut? I am now!

Why? Because the Universe is set up for you! Trust that! It is set up for you to achieve your heart’s desires! It really really is! I am not saying it will be a walk in the park. The challenges will come but having that trust in yourself and the way the Universe operates you will be alright, every single time

And that is all!

Peace!!!

What is being of service? Looking upon another human being with kindness and compassion and not judgement is a profound act of service and though such a form of service lacks for whistles and bells, this expression of “service” comes from truly understanding the power of your soul and what it means to “look upon another with eyes of grace.” Carolyn Myss 1.

Redefinition of Lose

Rather than think about what you have to do to change a situation, consider what the situation might be doing to change you. How it might be seasoning and transforming and growing you. You are not responsible for everything and everyone. Allow that as a possibility. Jessica Dore There are some situations that are simply in your life showing you how to shift, how to be flexible, to grow, to transform. You long for change, yet you cling so to the familiar. You are so afraid of what you think you will lose. You are even afraid to lose the things you don't want. The familiar becomes your family, regardless of what it is. let's redefine "lose" I define lose as opening up to a new possibility The day I stopped saying that I lost my house, lost my marriage, lost my mind, things shifted for me The shift has to start inside How we define and relate to the circumstances in our lives transforms how we act. I started asking myself different question...

What Does Support Look Like to You?

  You save yourself energy when you learn to ask people what they need, instead of assuming you know best then acting on your own impulses. Allowing people to define what support looks like gives you an ability to assess if you have the capacity to show up - Minaa B If someone asks you right now, what does support look like to you, what would be your answer? It takes self reflection , self awareness and more importantly a whole load of authenticity to answer. On the flip side, do you rush to support others without them even asking- there may be times when that is required, however many a time we assume that we know what others want and need. The times when we do assume, after a while a feeling of resentment builds because "how could they be so ungrateful?" or "why are they not seeing their need for my help?" the other classic is "they must need my help to show them because they clearly are not seeing that they need support" We continue to assume what othe...
