PURPOSE & VALUE

Something is just eating away at me today about Value and Purpose.  Not being negatively affected by what is on the outside and gaining more knowledge of who and what you are and being guided from the inside.  We as women are inundated with expectation from others and have been created to expect and accept this as our true nature and Purpose (there's that word again).  Not saying it isn't true just expanding on the concept a bit.  After all we are Mother of Humanity and Essence of the Creator of this Universe.  So what and who we are requires much of us.

There is just so much information, so much intrusion, so much of everything and it can be quite challenging to embrace one's self for self with so much propaganda.  What I am suggesting are asking is:  "DO YOU LIVE OUT FROM WHAT AND WHO YOU ARE"?

The other thing is that life is really (all)  about relationships and the people in our lives speaks volumes about, I don't want to say who we are, or even what we are but what we believe about ourselves, particularly those we've chosen. We are impressed, influenced by our relationships, no matter how subtle.

You see, we allow everything that occurs in our lives to happen and not knowing doesn't matter, life happens regardless of what you are conscious of , or lack awareness of.  The more Knowledge we have the more Power we have to determine what will and will not be a part of our lives.  Who we allow in and why, questions we ask or don't ask all of this is relative and relevant.  I probably just said the same thing with those last two words, but I like words, so look them up see what you think about it.  You're entitled.

As you may have heard we are all and one connected, as we are one with the Universe so whatever we think, do or say others are affected by as well.  Simple stuff I know, but do you know how many people don't get it.   If someone is in your immediate circle or very close to you then those individuals may be more affected than those who are just passing through your life and what you are experiencing.

John Lennon once said something like this "When you inspire someone else, you actually are motivating yourself as well, it's "Instant Karma".  My point when you "Uninspire" someone (my word), then you also "Uninspire" yourself, get my drift.

I also heard somewhere, or I read that the Moment you  think a thought, the moment you send it out, a reciprocation is framed to you, immediately.  That is still the "Instant Karma", concept.  BOOMERANG!

So don't be afraid to give away some Power, it's okay, when you can give Power away, it only means that your Personal Value is healthy. Trust me you don't lose anything by sharing.  Sharing is caring, so give with feeling; and you will expand yourself in the process.  Just know everything we do matters.  Absolutely everything even the smallest gesture, thought or action holds value and Yes Power.  All that we do, say or act upon is very, very powerful, test what I'm saying,  just try it you may be surprised at the outcomes.

So don't devalue yourself by believing that who you are and what you may have given was ever lost, it was not. And if you feel you've lost something, learn from the loss.  It was your purpose to do so, and you will be richly rewarded for your generosity at some point in your life.  Because we are  all interconnected and we all affect each other's lives.  So remember that the next time you feel Unvalued or Purposeless.  As you explore the deeper meaning of relationships, the why of them you may begin to understand how you as an individual may effect change in another because that is what relationships do. That is why you connected, why you crossed paths and the exchange that occurs would be your Purpose and Value, or Added Value to what is already exists; which is where this discourse began. 

Remember there is nothing RANDOM in our universe and there is no such thing as a COINCIDENCE, its all exactly what it should be!

You Matter, you are Worthy, where you are is exactly where you should be and everything you do is Significant, has Purpose and is Valuable, absolutely EVERYTHING!

Be where you are, Focus on what you Want in your Life and guess what It Will Happen!

JOHNNIE GIRL

In traffic long line, flaggers holding the slow sign, they're making their time and a half overtime, tomorrow is fourth of July.  I'm going nowhere, still deciding what I want my day to be like.  Not much to do but listen to the conversations in my head so I begin to write.

My name is Johnnie, but I'm a female and often when someone calls and they hear a female voice, they say May I speak to Johnnie, and I say this is she.  You know how it goes. Or they may say first meeting, things like all the colloquialisms, "Your dad must have wanted a boy",  or "Did  you say Jackie, or Joni or Joan"; NO.  My name is Johnnie and yes I'm a girl. 

All the assumptions people make when what is said doesn't fit, doesn't register, assumptions, notions, what should and shouldn't be, MY, MY, MY.

Where is this coming from, it's coming from what it is leading to.  I'm working my way back to the middle, back to balance without judgments and assumptions of what should or should not be, only What Is!  Guess what I'm okay with that, with being, with what is, with a name like Johnnie.

It suits me and it works, I am Johnnie and over the years I've defined the name, the persona of a woman named JOHN.  A dichotomy an oxymoron, the reality.  Life is pretty much like this and soo.......

Nothing in our lives is random, nothing is out of sync, out of place, unusual or unworthy of us.  It is what it is!

My first post, upon my return following a long hiatus, living at the opposite end of the food chain, you know Maslow's law and getting another life perspective that again is rapidly changing.  I'm excited about the change because it means transformation (no transformation without change), everyone wants to Transform but no one wants to Change but it requires a consciousness adjustment, believe me I've had one.  Definitely a humbling experience, the kind that changes you forever, brings you to life, real life.  Getting rid of all the dross and dead stuff the layers on the surface, that kind of change creating a New You, no name change but a spiritual elevation.

Going through the valley and trudging up the hill, cause sometimes you have to trudge, cause that's the only way you're going to get there.   A consciousness flip, one that doesn't assume, doesn't depend on, doesn't forget to be gracious or grateful, one that goes with it, the flow that is, that kind of change. 

One that considered being someone other than Johnnie, but Johnnie is my assignment and so that is who I'll be.  Johnnie Girl.   Ciao for now, see you around.
