Harness Your Energy

Posted on by Jill Telford

Everything and everyone is energy. Harness your energy and use it to benefit our world. We are all wired with miraculous gifts. 

No more waiting to open your gift. Open your gift and open the doors. Doing this will open doors for others. 

When is the last time you did something that you really love to do? If you haven’t; please do. If you have; how did it feel? Freeing? Or not? 

Many people phone friends to check in from time to time but when is the last time you phoned yourself to check in? 

Who are you? What do you love? When did you know? Where are you now in your journey? Why are you here? How do you know? How do you feel? 

Time to pick up the phone and call. Get in touch with yourself. Harness and protect your energy. In this world and beyond the yond, be you, yourself and you. 

Harnessing your energy is harnessing Y O U. 

Remember that. Remember Y O U.

Y: Young, wild and free

O: Only one of you

U: Unique, so be yourself

Take care

The three life lessons to do revolve around take care.

  1. Take care of yourself
  2. Take care of each other and others
  3. Take care of the Earth

As these three lessons are learned, ingrained/imprinted: the rest handles itself.

What Does it All Really Mean?

What are we all doing? Here. At the same time? There are so many theories and probabilities. Is it inertia of life? The push and pull, the ebb and flow of it.

Are we all finishing soul journeys?

Or does having theories help us to get on with it?

To move like Mancala which came from the Arabic word: Nacala which means to move. We must keep moving.

There was a time we didn’t know what we know and knew today. And, that is true every single day.

Like Sisyphus, we keep rolling that boulder.

We were rolling snow into giant boulders to build a snow yeti like creature and as the spheres rolled bigger and bigger / it was a full circle moment. An epiphany of sorts.

Oh, … it hit me then as this giant snow yeti started to topple and fall to the ground passing on love, living in the moment / life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

We the people are more than documents and a force to be in charge of. It takes one look in the eyes of another human being / spirit / force to recognize the depth, the soul, the love and the reckoning.

We all want to be acknowledged, understood and to be loved. “So, when the world / [the universe] [all of us] uses the power of love to overcome the love of power, we all will know and experience peace” — Jimi Hendrix

What does it all really mean? The coincidences, the happenings, all of these things. If you know you know. In the wink of an eye, our eternity is found there.

The Three Gifts

What did you get for life? What did you give to life?

I gave and received gifts of time, talent and treasure.

Time is being in service to others whether it’s volunteering to help a neighbor, a shelter, our Earth. Taking care of our Earth, ourselves and each other.

Talent is sharing your gift and using it. What are you capable of? Do that. Making art / making something like an invention or a song or a play. Making someone laugh or feel.

Treasure is paying / paving the way forward and giving opportunities to those who’ve earned it.

Give your gifts of time, talent and treasure. In the grand scheme of life, we are all walking g each other home. And, we are all the better for it.

Movement is Life

Travel light, be the light and light the way. All of us are light. We learn a lot about each other when we get out there. We also learn a lot about ourselves in the process.

There is way more in this universe that connects us than divides us. At the heart of it all, we all want a better life. We want to be whole, to heal. But if “better” is at the expense of another then it’s like depleting the self.

We are one. See it in infinite eyes of humanity. Take time as nature does. In time, everything is revealed.

peace, love and light.

Peace, Love and the Light

Gallery | Posted on by Jill Telford

Tomorrow is always a new day. When you wake up it’s another moment to start new. The thing about peace is that it comes when you learn discernment.

Love and forgive but never, ever forget even when your brain wants you to file it far away as possible from your heart.

Light up the way for those before you. Keep the joy, the peace, love and the light.

There is this song by Common: The Light that changed my life.

A line from it is this: “If Heaven had a height, you would be that tall”. Remember this, you are light, you are love, you are soul.

And, all of that I’m suspecting we get to take with us when we no longer traverse this Earth.

Just Because

Life is for living. When was the last time you did something just because? Life is for many moments of just because. Why? Why not?

Just becausing has become a very big part of our lives. There is no reason or explanation needed. Do the thing you love instead of dying to do the thing you love. When you do it will feel effortless. It’s the zone. The doing without doing. You don’t have to try so hard. Just be.

Just Be, because you are.

Dear Summer

Summer. Imagine having it all year. It’s not the weather that makes summer, summer. It’s us. People. No matter where you find yourself, ask “How do I feel?”

Don’t wait to feel present. Be in the moment wherever and whenever. Don’t wait to feel alive. Life is what you live and what you give not staying busy or being a busy body. Don’t be up in other people’s Koolaid. Especially, knowing you don’t know the flavor. Enjoy your cup of tea.

Love and live life well. It will be one well spent. Spend time’s currency well. The exchange rate is one wild and precious ride.

I don’t have any tips for this short and sweet post just a question when it comes to living.

What are you waiting for?

Do the Right Thing

“You only live once but if you do it right, once is enough.” -Mae West

At a restaurant we visited, I saw and read this quote which is almost or all aphoristic depending on who you ask. It’s brilliant especially when people get stuck on what’s right on a soul shattering kind of level. Some questions I often ponder are:

Who are you? Who are you surrounded by? Who are you in a process of becoming / evolving?

What do you do for a life and/or a living? What’s your story? What makes you feel alive?

When did you stop doing what you love? When did you start doing what you love?

Where have you been? Where are you going?

Why?

How are you feeling? How are you thinking?

But always remember no matter the questions and conversations, “You can discover more about a person in an hour of play than in a year of conversation”. (shout out to Plato!)

So, keep on, keep on playing miraculous humans!
