Dark Horse The life and times of a meditative horse trainer. I'm a second generation born and raised Alaskan. I've very proud of that, my roots are here. While I want to see as much of the world as I can, I want to raise my children here. I'm a dedicated student of the horse, of life and I love to learn. I try to leave no stone unturned in my life. Nothing is good if taken at just face value there is always more, to people, an animal, a thought, a dream. I'm an intensity junky, I live my life with passion as if every action were my very last, and I love the colors that this passion has brought to me. It's my hope to share this small window of myself with my readers. If you surfed in please make yourself at home and stay a while, if your one of my loved one's who are here, I love you for all you have educated me in to make my life this amazing. |

2005-08-24 1:46 PM Shine On "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." Marianne Williamson
When you find you’re something more… And you found the something more right where you left it, within yourself. I just can’t love this quote enough, it speaks to me so much that I was in wonder the first time I read it. For some of us out there, we grew up in light, and once people sat up and took notice, we forced our light into the shadows, oftentimes we don’t feed others inner light like we should. You see the beauty of this light in children all the time, the freedom of their lovely acts and emotions. There is nothing held back, it’s the same with animals who have either been raised in a free environment or have been healed from the past. This quote is revisited on a day where there is absolutely no void of course Moon, Venus trines Uranus. Venus is the sign of passion of course and it’s one of those days where perhaps your passion can become your main focus whatever that passion may be. There is tons of energy in the heavens right at all of our fingertips. There is no limit to what your goals can be if you quiet your inner judge and free yourself to believe in your own light. I always find myself shrinking from my own light, it’s a bad habit that I’m not sure where it started from. Perhaps at too many times in my life I’ve been embarrassed by how I might of made someone feel when I was complimented in front of them, or perhaps being sensitive to others feelings I didn’t want to bask in my own glory for fear of seeming too arrogant. Or perhaps it’s just my own inner judge that is perhaps the harshest of all. Part of becoming an enlightened individual and being the best you are is being able to bask in your own light. Sadly there are moments when basking might be misunderstood as arrogance. There is a huge difference from self importance and embracing your gifts. I suppose what the message I’m trying to relay here is… IT IS OKAY TO BE PROUD OF YORUSELF! If you cannot love yourself you cannot truly love another, if you cannot embrace, forgive and be brave enough to shine, you will continually be led to frustration in the doings of your life. My most powerful moments are when I held gratitude for my light and let it shine. The “in the moment” honesty of horses reactions have helped pull me into my own present moment into proper prospective. There is no pride, no ego and no arrogance in their actions, they simply just ARE…. There is no reason why we as humans cannot demonstrate this same example. There is no reason why this quote cannot be true and you can actually give someone else the permission to be brave enough to let their own light shine as well. The only person’s thoughts you can control are your own, there is no force in the heavens or earth that can help you change someone else’s thoughts or feelings. People will judge, myself included, it’s a terrible thing but it’s a harsh truth – I am the Red Headed Judge at times. The only check and balance in the system is that you might allow yourself to be swayed by whoever the judge of the moment is. So as we embark upon a week of high energy and if you are one of my readers in AK, the crispness of the fall energy – let yourself shine. There is no force stronger in your world than your own mind. Set yourself free with belief because I indeed believe in all of you and I get inspiration from each and every one of you. Read/Post Comments (2) Previous Entry :: Next Entry Back to Top |
