I am an
Avatar®. It is a reality. I created Avatar to be in my life out of my knowing
that healing takes place from the inside out. I have always believed that we
create lessons for the purpose of learning and growing as human beings. I also
have been aware that my life has been connected to a greater energy source than
our earth ecosystem. What I didn't know was how we are all related. Avatar has
allowed me to explore old patterns of beliefs and behaviors that have made me
who I am today. "We are One" were words I wanted to believe but
hadn't yet experienced until Avatar.
I have grown to
appreciate alt of my many selves - identities that didn't always make life fun!
I used to call them "Miss Clown," "Miss Priss," "Miss
Bitch," etc. This committee was a very interesting group of
characters. Whenever I needed
guidance they were always there to give me their opinions. It was quite an
experience the day I had the committee meet and we all duked it out. I decided
to thank them for their time but they were no longer needed. I am now one
integrated holistic self, continuing and loving my journey.
I realized what wake-up
calls were. I had believed they were the 2x4 someone else swung at you. Imagine
when I discovered I was also the one swinging the board! The reality of the
extent to which I am totally responsible and accountable for my life hit! But
rather than being destabilized by it, I have welcomed it.
What now? Who knows! I
know I have everything I need to appreciate and enjoy each moment just as it is
fight now. I spend my days in joyful anticipation as my creations manifest in
all kinds of ways. I have the physical sensation of being in love - with the
greater force that is my essence. The current changes in my life are reflective
of this love.
What I know now is that
I created Avatar in my life as a gift of self love so I could manifest the
healing and loving mission I feel is the purpose of my life in this physical
form.
