If You Want It,Be It

You cannot have love if your heart is closed

You cannot have money if you are afraid of it

You cannot have freedom if you are unwilling to make choices

You cannot have peace if you think it means giving up something essential to your survival - One Day My Soul Just Opened Up

What you are running from you are running to

I love the line in the Course in Miracles that says whatever is lacking in a situation is because you have been unwilling to give it

If you want love, be willing to give love

If you want peace, be willing to be peace

And you can extend it to other things, the book you want to read, why not write it, the song you want to sing why not sing it?

The dress you want to wear, why not create it?

So many times our default is reasons, rationale, justification and excuses about why not!

You want to do something, you mention it but disclaim

I have no money right now

I have no friends to go with me

I have no

I cannot

It does not make sense

Talking yourself right out of the very thing you say you want to do

Why say it when you really believe it is untainable or that you will make no moves towards it?

Such a waste of words, time and effort

I have learnt that words can determine actions and beliefs so to keep them all in alignment

And when the self doubt comes, I brush up on the self talk to ensure that they get back into alignment

It takes work

It takes truth

It takes courage

It takes willingness

Are you willing

Peace
