I am Spirit & so are you! Remembering is all it takes!
I am Spirit; Truly I am and so are you! It took me a long time to realise this! And sometimes I forget it and when I remember again the realisation is even more beautiful!
We are spiritual beings in the physical form! How many times have you read this and thought Yeah right! Or it simply has no meaning to you?
It seems to be a catch phrase, as we go thru our ‘Spiritual Awakening’. Spiritual beings having an earthly experience. There has always been a reluctance on my part to fully believe this as I could not “connect” to my Spirit! And felt unworthy because my perception of spirit was that it was a higher power? something out there/up there that is smarter, grander, more intuitive, powerful and all knowing? And all the while ILLUSIVE, just out of my mere earthly reach!
As adults we compete with others to get ahead in our lives based on material gain and how much we have. We are trained from an early age to want and wanting just creates more wanting! We identify with our experiences, and then compare our experiences to others and depending on what mood we are in find ourselves less than, more than and sometimes equal. As Children we are taught that being good or good at something equals love and attention and there are no prizes for second best or being bad. We are taught to stuff down our so called bad emotions and not feel them. When we are little, often, when hurt, sick, or sad, our parents fed us, or distracted us with a game, toy, watching TV, reading a book, anything but let us feel what we were feeling! If we got angry about something, we were told off, sometimes punished! This causes us to stuff down the “bad feelings” and focus on being good and wanting to be the best. And we become our own Judge, Jury and Executioner when we feel we have fallen short.
Spirit requires no competition, it just requires us to remember who we are and we can do that in any given moment if we are still enough to listen and feel.
We have come from Spirit and created ourselves in the physical form! If we can create ourselves into the physical form, doesn’t it stand to reason that we create and are responsible for everything in our lives of the physical form? We have just forgotten that we can do so. We have forgotten that we are spirit, we don’t need to “Connect” to Spirit, we are it! It is us! We have proof of that because we have manifested here in the physical form.
Our spirit is always with us. It’s who we are. When there is a problem with friends or community that we live in, do we have trouble connecting to our compassion or does it just flow from us? There are examples of human spirit everywhere, whenever Mother Nature throws a natural disaster at us, our community spirit goes into action. No body “connects” to it, it is just readily accessible. We often know just how to react or what do to automatically without having to think about it.
When we remember who we are…………..Spiritual beings in the physical form and really identify as that, there is no more wanting, we are complete and we manifest exactly that completeness in everything we do.
