Letter to my heart…

Hey you.

So I’m writing this as reminder to you…. I wanted to remind you that what matters most is what your gutt tells you, what you think and what you believe in–over and beyond what others insist–even though they profess to have well meaning intentions.

What matters most is what is in your deepest convictions…that inner voice you hear day in and day out that nudges you onward…in spite of all who laugh, scorn, reject, admonish, ridicule, stab, abduct, squelch your sense of love and of life.

Where are those cackling heckles when you are wrestling in those darkest hours? Typically they’re drunk with self gratification, ego and self-righteousness,  fast asleep on their satin sheets in their mansions of lofty pride, and they are unable to relate to the heart that can not sleep til all are sheltered, safe, tenderly cared for and loved.

Why on earth then would their opinions touch? Do not let them.

Seems to me ego has never won the day though it may rule for a time.

Where is ego in the birthing room? on the painter’s canvas? at the writing table?

Didn’t that same ego just sluff off the beggar, walk past the fallen and downtrodden, scoff at a painting, ignore the chirping birds…all because the email dinged on the inbox of the mobile device?

Didn’t that same ego scold you for your outfit before saying hello? size up your choices and call them worthless before listening to your life’s purpose? call you ugly on the days you felt most glowing? and worse, shun your ideas as heinous, ridiculous excuses of thought?

Where’s that ego been when you’ve been living out of your car? or in desperate fear? or when you’ve been broken hearted and unsure of so many unknowns?

Remember dear one, it is you who are the rock when wedded to the unswerving unyielding support of your divine source.

It is you that overflows and pours forth compassion, gentleness, tenderness, and joy to share that cup of cold water and quench the thirst for truth from within and without.

The ego never even hears those tugs. It’s too busy feeding it’s gluttonous self and too busy getting quite fat off the opinions that it feeds off of.

Be wise.  You’ve plunged the depths before and swum exceedingly gracefully in a straight flowing channel away from the currents of popular opinion and peacock squawkings of what is real life and what is happiness.

Stay open…for the like mindeds are seeking each other and the truth that unites all is squelching ego and evolving humility in the very cackling, barking, rigid hearts that try to suffocate so many vibrant alive beings.

Be mindful that fear always anticipates with suspicion and never embraces new.

Go forward thought by thought without any justification save integrity and deep devoted unswerving conviction.

The only real trophy is that knowing you’ve lived consistent authenticity.

The only real market share to invest in is answering that question: have you been true to you today?

The only reward is within and each and all true hearts already know this.

And remember, I’m so very grateful for the who you are. Thank you for steering me to live….

to love….

to be….

always.

Hugs ‘n luvs,

me
