Sometimes truth dawns on us in simple, but profound ways.  I have been strongly guided to do a workshop on the Universal Laws and finally admitted to myself the sad truth.  I was procrastinating about it.  I have been studying the material, outlining, coming to a point of “owning” the material so I can pass it on to others in a clear and meaningful way, so that they can also understand the importance of it all.  I had myself totally stressed about it, feeling that this workshop was such a big part of my purpose that I became single minded about it.  I knew I had to break through all the ego fears associated with being in front of people, talking, teaching, being able to answer all questions, etc.  My higher self has brought ideas and thoughts to help me overcome this hurdle that the ego has so steadfastly put into place, and I have been working with the higher being and it is helping.  But I realized that this dragging of feet has been totally the ego’s doing.  It was in a comfort zone.  I reluctantly owned the blame for this, and in doing so it has moved me forward with greater determination to just do it and move past any fears the ego has put in my head.

            The other morning brought me to a much deeper, though simple, realization.  This workshop is not the only way to be in purpose for my path, it is only “another” way.  The Universal Mind is much more concerned with a constant high vibration than it is concerned with whether or not I complete a satisfactory workshop.  That will come.  What is more important is how I take on each day, each moment. 

            This week in particular has seen some of my days double and triple booked with things that need to be done – visiting with someone who has a dear friend that is dying, working with another that is looking for path and purpose, keeping a promise to do readings at a wedding shower, taking my niece to a museum (which has been promised since December).  That, along with a day job, has had me stressed, thinking, “When will I have time to work on my true purpose?”  I also do volunteer work at a nursing home and have a hospice client I see, all done in a day off from the day job once a week.  I look upon those as a great part of my purpose, but all these other things, other than being with the grieving or guiding someone on their path, were making me feel I did not have enough time to devote to reading, studying, etc.  Suddenly I realized, in hearing the higher part of my being talking in my head, that purpose comes with all things, regardless of what the appearance of it may be. 

            Every human is here to learn that we are not our bodies, but our souls.  Our soul is here to express the one truth of the Universe – love.  It does not matter if you are an Archangel in form, an angelic human, a lightworker in form, or whatever purpose your soul is here for – it is all about love and expressing from an open heart and living from the soul and not the ego mind.  With that as a truth, all things, regardless of what they are, can be on purpose and in purpose.  Every moment of every day is a challenge to come from the soul and an open heart with unconditional love.  That makes for a consistent high vibration within our being so that what we think of as the “bigger” purposes can manifest, or actualize, in our lives.  Yes, it is good to pass on wisdom to others through workshops, books, and talks, for you are reaching a larger group of people who also wish to walk their path.  But the Universe does not measure it that way.  It measures it by the vibration you put out each and every moment, not only when one feels they are finally doing something that is the “bigger” purpose.

            In my thinking that doing a workshop would put me in my purpose, and seeing other things as “lesser” than my purpose, it was rather like thinking that, “When I have that thing, I will be happy,” or “If only I could be doing something different than what I do in my job, I’d be happy.”  That thinking will keep one in the “what if” vibration, or the “when” vibration, so it will never be in the moment.  And isn’t that all we have – the moment?  Oh yes!  My thinking that “When I do the workshop I’ll be more on purpose,” isn’t any different than someone thinking “When I have that swimming pool in my backyard, I’ll be happy.”  Maybe wanting to do a workshop is a bit more meaningful than the desire for a swimming pool, but the Universe is only reading the “when this happens, then…” feeling. 

            In this realization, it lifted the stress, took away much of the fear, for it diminished the ego-thinking, and put me in a totally different perspective of being on purpose always and in all ways.  Bringing love and an open heart to any situation is being on and in purpose.  Whether it is talking with another who also wishes to find their path, sitting with a friend who is grieving, or cooking dinner, it can all be done with the same purposefulness of giving a workshop.  For in each moment we are setting an example.  In each moment we are teaching.  In each moment we can be in that space of unconditional love.  Whether that is being given to one individual, to self, or to a room full of people, the love you are feeling is all the Universe is getting a reading on, and that is what is going to be coming back to you.  Whatever frequency is put out will be answered. 

            I say, let us all realize that every moment is what our purpose is – to be the love and light of truth.  If we feel we are here for a “bigger” purpose, it will come much faster if we keep living life on purpose in the moment we are in.  If we keep waiting until that “bigger” opportunity comes to feel we are on purpose, we might wait a long time.  Carpe diem!  Seize the moment, each moment, for that is all we are given as a sure thing.  Past and future are an illusion, but build a good foundation in the moment for the next moment, and the next moment. Be on purpose and in purpose with each breath and the Universe will answer your joyous and loving frequency with abundance on every level of your being.

            A workshop on the Universal Laws is forthcoming.  That will also be part of my purpose, but today I am called to other things, and those things are also are part of my purpose, for I choose to see my purpose in all things and I will make it so.  We have a choice in what perspective we see things from.  If you are in the moment, enriching that moment with focus from the heart, even if it is taking out the trash, it can be heightened into something much more meaningful.  Do whatever you do to the best of your ability and it brings much more meaning to it, especially when done with the purpose of love.  Do all things as though you are doing for the All That Is, your own higher being, the Divine within you, and everyone and anyone else as one with you - for in truth, you are.

            I end with a quote by Martin Luther King, Jr. speaking on this very thought.  “If you are called to be a street sweeper, sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry.  Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, 'Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.'” 

Love and blessings,
