Hi Everyone,
I have been on the path to overcome the ego mind, (that negative voice in our head) for over fifteen years now. I have worked very hard to awaken, be aware, and to see beyond the five senses. I am not special for we are all special. Of course I am human and therefore make mistakes for I am not perfect, if I was I wouldn't be here to learn. Anyhow, I am alway being challenged in who I am becoming and what others think, especially from others who call themselves awakened. Often I get the attitude of, who do you think you are! Or you can't say that for that is my belief, idea, modality. I didn't know Oneness was patented by a Guru in India, did you? Well if these individuals would only listen to themselves they would see that it is their ego talking and that is not very awakened behavior. I struggle and plot along, love, forgive and know that I am on the right path. I know in my heart that I must not let others get in my way or tell me I am not something because of their fear. We must move forward with love and trust and know that as we break free of the ego and speak our truth others will follow someday.
The choice is up to us for everyones purpose at this place and time is to awaken to the true self.
Love Steven

HI Everyone,
I finally figured out my blog stuff thanks to Dean and thanks to Jim for the new set up.
I was on the tractor this morning, Easter morning, and the birds where singing and the wind was blowing and the snow was slowly melting as I brought round bales in from the field and I thought; how lucky I am to live so close to nature and be part of it everyday. The experience brings forth such awareness of what is really important. I found this quote which says we need to get back to what we are, the present moment.
Cleansing Nature - Rain
There are times when we might feel the need to wash away all of our troubles and call forth freshness into our lives. Since the most cleansing substance on this earth is probably water, we can think of the joy rain brings as an energetic bath, rejuvenating our minds, bodies, and souls. Just being able to spend a few moments every time it rains to become aware of the healing powers water brings to us can renew us in so many ways. As we do this we will find that the more we appreciate the universe’s gift to us in the form of rain, the more we can see that a gentle rain shower is a strong reflective tool that has the ability to cleanse our entire being. The next time it rains might be a good chance to experience the rain through all of your senses, allowing you to truly understand the importance of each and every drop of water. First, take a few minutes to look outside and notice how each individual raindrop seems to come down in a continual stream. By noticing this you can contemplate how it takes many small accomplishments to create the whole of your existence for nothing exists in isolation. Then you might wish to focus your attention on the sound of the rainfall, letting the sounds of drops penetrate into the innermost recesses of your self. Listening in this way may bring you a greater sense of connection with nature and the world around you, knowing that the sounds you hear are an integral part of not just the physical sustenance you require but that they also nourish your spirit. Consciously using our senses to feel nature’s healing energy as it comes to us in the form of rain is an act of internal cleansing. Just as the rain physically washes over the earth and rinses out any impurities and imperfections, it also bathes our spirit in the joy that comes from knowing that we are one with the world around us.
BLessings in Peace, Steven
