Elijah

I used to use MySpace for blogging, you can check out some of my older stuff here:
Jenny Stradling MySpace blog

On September 21, 2007 - Friday

I wrote a poem for my new baby:

Elijah

In this new world, time does not exist
He sleeps, he eats, he sleeps...
His tiny fingers curl into his tiny little hands
I love him
I am in love with his every breath, his sweet baby faces, his curious eyes

He depends on only me
He needs me, but I need him
Soft new skin and milky baby breath...
I wonder what kind of things he will learn to love

Nothing matters now
Or, everything matters, but in a new way
He doesn`t care how I look, or if the house is clean
Pure, fresh innocence
We are in baby bliss

Awake and alert for a moment
I can`t look away
Kiss... kiss... kiss...
What do think about Baby?
Do you know Mommy loves you?

I want to soak in every moment
I can`t put him down
He gurgles and sighs
He is perfect
More kisses...

My body feeds him
God planned it this way
Mommy and baby, joined together
There are no words to express
Beautiful, beautiful baby

I love you...

Quote of the Day

Do you find yourself saying, “I can’t take it any longer”? Well, simply stop taking it. Let it go, release it, and stop fighting yourself. Behold the love within your heart, and start “giving it.” Ka-boom, baby!

- Sri Gawn Tu Fahr

Quote of the Day

“Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year’s time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings.”

Andre Maurois   This goes along with my FaceBook status update yesterday:  Jenny Hansen Stradling Like I tell my kids, YOU control how you feel... no one can make you mad, you can choose how you react, so if you are mad, it's your choice to be that way. You can also choose to be happy! The sooner we can all learn this, the easier life will be. Who cares what anyone else says/thinks about us anyways? Just choose happy and don't worry about the rest.

Impossible... ?

Quote of the Day: Dr. Wayne Dyer

"You're not what you have and you're not what you do; you're an
infinite, divine being disguised as a successful person who has
accumulated a certain amount of stuff. The stuff is not you. For that
reason, you must avoid being attached to it in any way."

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

"Never follow your passion, but by all means, bring it with you."

Jenny Hansen Stradling

Great quotes! Here's one of mine:

When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds; your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world.
Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far then you ever dreamed yourself to be.

And my VERY fav:

(rainer maria rilke)
i beg you.... to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. don`t search for the answers, which could not be given you now, because you would not be able to live them. and the point is... See More, to live everything. live the questions now. perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without ever noticing it, live your way into the answer...

Yin Yang

Wondering what Yin Yang means anyways?

Yin Yang (in the West it's referred to as Yin and Yang) defined:

Yin-Yang. Yin corresponds to darkness, coldness, dampness and Earth; yang to light, warmth, dryness and Heaven. They are in constant conflict, but neither force can ever completely vanquish the other.

The two opposite energies in Chinese thought, from whose interaction and fluctuation the universe and its diverse forms emerge. They are the polar extremes of the unbounded Tao of the supreme and ultimate source (t'ai-chi) and from their intermingling arise the five elements (wu-hsing), which give rise to the myriad of forms, and to history and time. The yin-yang symbol expresses this interaction, the with the two spots (white in the dark, dark in the white) indicating that each of the two contains the seed of the other and is about to produce the replication of its opposite in interaction. All oppositions can be mapped onto yin and yang, yin representing e.g. the feminine, yielding, receptive, moon, water, clouds, even numbers, and the yang the masculine, hard, active, red, the sun, and odd numbers.

Two principles in Chinese philosophy and religion: yin represents a dark, negative, feminine figure, and yang symbolizes a positive, light, masculine figure. Together they are believed to influence the destinies of other people and things. Also, some refer to the dark segment as the autumnal equinox, the light section as the vernal equinox, the dark dot as the summer solstice, and the light dot as the winter solstice, thus representing the entire celestial phenomenon of seasons and the cycle of the sun. 

I'm thinkin about getting a Yin Yang tattoo... anyone like any of the above? Have any ideas?

QUOTE of the DAY!

Problems and personal challenges are never-ending. As long as we are experiencing new ones we know we are growing. If the same problem keeps popping up it means we need to apply ourselves diligently in that area of our life. We learn from our experiences sooner or later.

• Sri Gawn Tu Fahr

Quote of the Day

If we should deal out justice only, in this world, who would escape?  No, it is better to be generous, and in the end more profitable, for it gains gratitude for us, and love. 

• Mark Twain

Quote of the Day

I just love dichotomy. We know scientifically, that 'opposites attract.' We also know from personal experience that 'like attracts like'.

• Sri Gawn Tu Fahr 

I love this :-)

I Am Consciousness

Since the beginning of my 1st blog (you`re here: My Truth was my very 1st blog!) I have had the simple profile statement of:

"I am consciousness"

So what does that mean?

The typical person may say "consciousness" means we are aware of something, I am conscious of my body, thoughts, emotions, etc. Without realizing it at the time, I was actually tuning into a deeper meaning that I could only later begin to put into words. After years of studying, reading, loving and opening myself up to spiritual teachers and thought leaders such as: Eckhart Tolle, Tony Robbins, Dr. Louis Hay, Gandhi, Buddha, The Dalai Lama, Oprah Winfrey, Amma, Jesus Christ, Og Mandino and many, many more, I realized what consciousness really means…

Consciousness is the vast and infinite underlying foundation of the very form of awareness.

Of course understanding this meaning of consciousness and actually staying this present in the day to day moments of our lives are two different things. For most of us, experiencing true consciousness on this deeper level can be difficult as it does take serious effort. It`s about placing attention on the space, or the gap, between words and thoughts. It`s existing in the gap.

I think Eckhart Tolle put it beautifully when he said: "Discover inner space by creating gaps in the stream of thinking. Without those gaps, your thinking becomes repetitive, uninspired, devoid of any creative spark, which is how it still is for most people on the planet." In one of my favorite books, A New Earth, Eckhart Tolle suggests breath meditation to help bring that space into our lives. Because we generally breathe with no effort, when we become conscious of our own breath, we are absolutely present. Conscious breathing stops the process of thinking. We are not asleep in this state, we are more fully awake. This form of breath meditation offers space for true consciousness.

At least once a day I try to still my thoughts, close my eyes and for even just one moment quiet my thoughts and breath in consciousness. This quick exercise takes just a moment, but it reminds me of my own vast inner spaciousness and the ability within us all to tap into that greater divine power within the universe. Many times we go through life on auto pilot. It`s like our brains are pre programmed to move throughout our day to day lives that being present isn`t even necessary anymore. We get through each day without even realizing we`re not present. We drive down the street not even noticing the trees, the birds, the colors, the people. We go to work and push through each day without expressing true, deep feelings, without feeling the emotion of those around us, without seeing the eternal purpose behind the seemingly monotonous day to day tasks….

True consciousness brings awareness of ourselves and our surroundings as one. You can`t be conscious of something without participating in it. Being conscious, being deeply aware, means that you are seeing yourself in that thing. You are breaking the boundaries and seeing the "invisible" connection between you and everything/everyone around you. You are really participating in the deeper place of existence where objects, people, places, things don`t exist without purpose.

So, to say "I am consciousness" I am recognizing
that I am always in a state of total awareness, as we all are, and that all I have to do is tap into that conscious awareness to feel completely at peace.


 
Namaste.


 

 

 

My Quote of the Day

It`s the questions themselves that should be embraced, the answers are the result of asking the right questions.

• Jenny Stradling

Quote of the Day: Dreams

Why waste your life chasing your dreams? Set yourself free and let them catch you.

QuoteS of the Day, subject: Thinking Positive

Having a bad day? Sometimes a quote will just pull me out of it.... remember, you choose how you feel, you choose what you think, you choose how you react. No one can MAKE you feel anything. That`s the beauty in free will. Sure, sometimes we all have to do things we don`t like. We have to endure things that just happen to us. But, we still get to CHOOSE how to feel!

Maybe a few of my favorite "Positive Thinking" quotes will help you today:

  “Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results.”

-          Willie Nelson

“You've done it before and you can do it now. See the positive possibilities. Redirect the substantial energy of your frustration and turn it into positive, effective, unstoppable determination.”

-          Ralph Marston

 “You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.”

-           Albert Einstein

                               

“Fear less, hope more; Eat less, chew more; Whine less, breathe more; Talk less, say more; Love more, and all good things will be yours”

-           Swedish Proverb

 “A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”

-          Winston Churchill

 “The positive thinker sees the invisible, feels the intangible, and achieves the impossible.”

-           Herm Albright

 “The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances; if there is any reaction, both are transformed.”

-           Carl Gustav Jung

  “Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another steppingstone to greatness.”

-           Oprah Winfrey

Quote of the day: Amma

Coolness of the breeze, rays of the moon, vastness of space— everything in this world is permeated with Divine Consciousness. To know and experience this Truth is the goal of our human birth. 

~ Amma

Excerpt from the Poem: We Speak Your Names

We Speak Your Names…for the women in my life:

 

Because we are free women,
born of free women,
who are born of free women,
back as far as time begins,
we celebrate your freedom.

Because we are wise women,
born of wise women,
who are born of wise women,
we celebrate your wisdom.

Because we are strong women,
born of strong women,
who are born of strong women,
we celebrate your strength.

Because we are magical women,
born of magical women,
who are born of magical women,
we celebrate your magic.

My sisters, we are gathered here to speak your
      names.
We are here because we are your daughters
as surely as if you had conceived us, nurtured us,
carried us in your wombs, and then sent us out
      into the world to make our mark
and see what we see, and be what we be, but better,
      truer, deeper
because of the shining example of your own
      incandescent lives.

We are here to speak your names
because we have enough sense to know
that we did not spring full blown from the
      forehead of Zeus,
or arrive on the scene like Topsy, our sister once
      removed, who somehow just growed.
We know that we are walking in footprints made
      deep by the confident strides
of women who parted the air before them like the
      forces of nature that you are.

We are here to speak your names
because you taught us that the search is always for
      the truth
and that when people show us who they are, we
      should believe them.

We are here because you taught us
that sisterspeak can continue to be our native
      tongue,
no matter how many languages we learn as we
      move about as citizens of the world
and of the ever-evolving universe.

We are here to speak your names
because of the way you made for us.
Because of the prayers you prayed for us.
We are the ones you conjured up, hoping we
      would have strength enough,
and discipline enough, and talent enough, and
      nerve enough
to step into the light when it turned in our
      direction, and just smile awhile.

We are the ones you hoped would make you
      proud
because all of our hard work
makes all of yours part of something better, truer,
      deeper.
Something that lights the way ahead like a lamp
      unto our feet,
as steady as the unforgettable beat of our collective
      heart.

We speak your names.
We speak your names.

Lost by David Wagoner

Stand still. The trees ahead and bushes beside you
Are not lost. Wherever you are is called Here,
And you must treat it as a powerful stranger,
Must ask permission to know it and be known.
The forest breathes. Listen. It answers,
I have made this place around you.
If you leave it, you may come back again, saying Here.
No two trees are the same to Raven.
No two branches are the same to Wren.
If what a tree or a bush does is lost on you,
You are surely lost. Stand still. The forest knows
Where you are. You must let it find you. 

Believe in:

... a place of peace... unconditional love
... a community of faith and hope
... a beautiful new beginning, a new chance
... forgiveness
... truth... YOUR truth
... unlimited possibilities
... the good of mankind
... the perfect opportunity
... your freedom to choose

I believe.

I believe I will get through the hard times. I believe I will reach my goals. I believe I will fulfill my dreams. I believe people are good. I believe that love flows to me when I give love. I believe that if I forgive others, I can be forgiven. I believe that the past is gone and that today is all that matters. I believe that nothing is impossible. I believe nothing is as it seems. I believe you can`t see with your eyes, you can only really see with your heart. I believe I have a sixth sense. I believe I know what is right. I believe I have a good heart. I believe I have a lot to give. I believe I can help people. I believe every word you speak has a rippling effect that lasts forever in time. I believe thoughts become reality. I believe everything has a purpose, so everything really happens for a reason. I believe you have a choice, you choose how to feel. I believe we create our own purpose. I believe you can only see yourself for who you really are once you`re willing to accept yourself as you are right now. I believe people can change. I believe it`s okay to follow your own heart. I believe you can`t judge people because you never really know. I believe in leaving some questions unanswered. I believe we are all part of one greater being. I believe that one person can change the world. I believe that you are important. I believe you have purpose in my life. I believe you have the power to change the world. I believe in you. I believe in me.

I believe.

'The whisper of God within calls to me as the fullness and wonder of God - Everywhere expressing. With deep gratitude, I feel, see, hear and touch the essence of God.'

Affirmation from Inner Visions by Michael Bernard Beckwith

Love One Another....

I just read this quote on twitter:

LoriMoreno

I just love life. I mean, you know, I love every second of it. I love people. ~Richard Branson #quote

Made me think. Why don`t more people love each other? It`s like every time I talk to someone it`s about who they hate, what their stupid ___________ <----- insert boss, spouse, friend, co-worker, even children did... I hear people talk more fondly about their dog than they do about their own husband!

Anyways, I think we should all just try and love each other a little more and STOP HATE. Everyone is having a hard time, everyone is going through something, everyone makes mistakes.... everyone needs love.

If one thing good came out of the Bible it was this quote, Jesus says, this is my new commandment, "Love one another"... My Aunt Jan and I sang this song at my Grandpas funeral...

Whether you believe in religion, karma, the pull of the universe or even just hate watching the news because of the hurt and hate... then you know this: People need people. The world needs more love and less hate. Peace starts with US!

I believe in a new Earth... do you? Join with me, spread the word:

LOVE EACH OTHER 

I think John Lennon said it best when he wrote Imagine:

"You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one..."

A Message from Rhonda Byrne: Creator of "The Secret"

So I am a firm believer of The Law of Attraction, which The Secret, of course, is all about. I like joining mailing lists that send reminders of the principles and truths I believe in. It`s so easy to lose sight and from time to time forget what it is you really stand for. So, today it was a nice reminder to review the following e-mail:

A Secret Scrolls message from Rhonda Byrne
Creator of The Secret


From The Secret Daily Teachings

Whatever feelings you have within you are attracting your tomorrow.

Worry attracts more worry. Anxiety attracts more anxiety. Unhappiness attracts more unhappiness. Dissatisfaction attracts more dissatisfaction.

AND . . .

Joy attracts more joy. Happiness attracts more happiness. Peace attracts more peace. Gratitude attracts more gratitude. Kindness attracts more kindness. Love attracts more love.
Your job is an inside one. To change your world, all you have to do is change the way you feel inside. How easy is that?

May the joy be with you,

One of my favorite spiritual teachers is Dr. Wayne Dyer, he says:

"Consistently thinking of needing more attracts that needy energy back to us. When we consistently generate thoughts of giving, however, we attract the energy of giving back to us."

Remember: Whatever you focus on expands! (So focus on what you want more of in your life, not what you don`t want!)

My Hidden Passion Number and Reading…

Sooooo, I got this free offer from tarot.com to get a personality number reading sample…. This is what it said:

Your Hidden Passion Number is 5

You love travel, change, and new challenges. You are highly adaptable and versatile. You have a talent for languages, and are generally good with words. Writing, promotion, and public relations work suit you perfectly.

You are sensual and a bit impulsive. You love to satisfy your senses, which can get you into trouble. Overindulgence in food, drink, sex, and drugs are common among people with too many 5s -- six or more.

You are resourceful and original. You have a good sense of humor and a quick tongue.

Your desire for freedom is extremely strong and it will take effort and discipline to stick with whatever it is you started. There is a tendency to give up a project or situation prematurely.

You may be interested in too many things, which can make it hard for you to apply yourself to one area successfully.

You are very unconventional.

Commitment in relationships and your work is fundamental to your happiness. You may have a tendency to wander from person to person, job to job, making depth of relationship or deep expertise difficult.

 

Pretty dead on, right??

P.S. My fav # is 5!

 

My Quote of the Day

Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, really believe, your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution paves the way to solution.

My Fav Quote of the Day:

“I found that when you start thinking and saying what you really want then your mind automatically shifts and pulls you in that direction. And sometimes it can be that simple, just a little twist in vocabulary that illustrates your attitude and philosophy.”

PEACE

The Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next.

Amen.

 --Reinhold Niebuhr

Quote of the Day: Live in the Now

This is my new life motto. Each day I`m trying to focus on the now. It`s not about what happened yesterday, a month ago, 2 years ago... or even in your childhood. It`s not real. It`s not about your future, tomorrow, next year, 5 years from now. That time doesn`t exist yet. Now is all we have. So, if you can`t be happy now, when will you be? How will you be? Are you placing conditions on your happiness? What if tomorrow never comes? What if you never win the lotto, have that baby, buy that house, get that job, marry that guy.... does that mean you will never be happy?

Can you find a way to be happy today? Can you live for today? Can you live for right now... can you find a way to let peace in your heart...right now? What are you waiting for?

Almost Doesn't Count - Brandy Lyrics

Think about it....this just hit me:

"Almost Doesn't Count" - by Brandy

Almost made you love me
Almost made you cry
Almost made you happy, baby
Didn't I didn't I
You almost had me thinkin'
You were turned around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you, baby
You'd found it in me
But you can't get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

I can't keep on lovin' you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that's never really sure
Can't keep on tryin'
If you're looking for more
Than all that I could give you
Than what you came here for

Gonna find me somebody
Not afraid to let go
Want a no doubt be there kind of man
You came real close
But every time you built me up
You only let me down
And everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

Maybe you'll be sorry
Maybe you'll be cold
Maybe you'll come runnin' back, baby
From the cruel cruel world
Almost convince me
You're gonna stick around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

So maybe I'll be here
Maybe I'll see ya around
That's the way it goes
Almost doesn't count

"The Way That I Love You" - ASHANTI LYRICS

After all of the times that we tried,
I found out we were living a lie
And after all of this love that we made,
I Know Now you don't love me the same

The way that I love
The way that I love
The way that I love

I woke up kinda early today, and something told me from that moment it wouldn't be the same
Felt like you were hidin' something, but I didn't push it,
I didn't complain or say nothing
I tried to act like I didn't see it,
'cause deep down I know I didn't wanna believe it
There it was, it was you and her,
you left your sidekick on the night stand and I read

Everything you did and everything you said,
now I'm standin' here lookin' like damn
I thought it was you and I,
now all I gotta say is why

The way that I love

I noticed now that when I'm around, you be tryin' to lock the door, whispering on the phone
Now wait a minute,
since we been in this house you ain't never did this before, tell me what's this about..
(What's this about)
I tried to sit and say to myself,
this here is too good, he don't want nothin' else

There it was, it was you and her,
you left the credit card receipt inside the beamer with

Everything you bought
And everything you spent, now I'm standing here
once again I thought it was you and I,
now all I have to say is why

The way that I love

Oh Oh
You lied
You lied
Oh why
Why
Yes
Why'd you have to lie to me
Why'd you have to lie to me
Why'd you have to lie to me
Why, why, why, why
You lied, you lied, you lied
We made, we made, we made
Oh

Change - Quote of the Day

All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. ~Anatole France

Diamond Rio: You're Gone

I only put up song lyrics WHEN and IF they really mean something to me....

This song means a lot to me:

You're Gone Lyrics

I said hello I think I'm broken
And though I was only jokin'
It took me by surprise when you agreed
I was tryin' to be clever
For the life of me I never
Would have guessed how far the simple truth would lead
You knew all my lines
You knew all my tricks
You knew how to heal that pain
No medicine can fix

And I bless the day I met you
And I thank God that He let you
Lay beside me for a moment that lives on
And the good news is I'm better
For the time we spent together
And the bad news is you're gone

Lookin' back it's still surprisin'
I was sinking you were rising
With a look you caught me in mid-air
Now I know God has His reasons
But sometimes it's hard to see them
When I awake and find that you're not there
You found hope in hopeless
You made crazy sane
You became the missing link
That helped me break my chains

And I bless the day I met you
And I thank God that He let you
Lay beside me for a moment that lives on
And the good news is I'm better
For the time we spent together
And the bad news is you're gone
The bad news is you're gone

Quote of the Day: Hellen Keller

I love this one!!!!!

“I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.”

Quote of the Day: Find Yourself

Loneliness if absence of the other. Aloneness is the presence of oneself. You are never alone once you find yourself.

Quote of the Day: Albert Einstein

It is almost a miracle that modern teaching methods have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for what this delicate little plant needs more than anything, besides stimulation, is freedom.
