Waking Up
The alarm bells are ringing shocking us from our slumber. The light is pouring in upon our eyelids commanding us to action. The time to awaken has arrived.
Many of us have been sleeping for a long time. We have seemed awake – we have performed our tasks, earned our incomes, gathered with our family and friends – but there has been a piece of our consciousness, an important part, that was not yet activated this lifetime. This consciousness sleep has taken different forms for each of us. For some, this sleep has manifested as a compulsion to escape through drugs, entertainment, food, low-vibration conversations, time with “friends” we are not even sure we enjoy. For others, it has manifested as continuous victimhood – the delusion that one is powerless or that others have entirely taken one’s power. It manifests as suffering through situations, jobs, friendships that we know are doing us harm but that we mistakenly believe we have no power over out of fear.
Fear is the biggest delusion, the biggest consciousness sleep. Fear prevents us from owning our authentic selves, from manifesting the life we want, from fighting for our beliefs, from believing that the hopeful, loving vision of the world that resides in our hearts is possible.
The time has come to wake up. The time has come to accept ourselves, to embrace our power. The time has come to be the person we each came here to be. The time has come to make the change in ourselves and in the world that we most want to see. The time has come for the old ways to be sloughed off like a ragged piece of clothing that no longer fits us.
Our true self, our eternal self, out highest self is whispering to our hearts right now telling us, “Now is no longer the time to sleep. Now is the time to BE fully, to LOVE fully, to DREAM fully with our whole heart, our whole Self.” Now is the time for each of us to be the alarm clock. For each of us to sound our wake up cry to others. For each of us to shine our inner light out as brightly as we can so that we can reach other, awaken each other, activate each other’s souls. The time has come. We are being awakened.
