Be strong, stand up, never quit.

As much as I want to look away, there are few places one can go at the moment that they are not bombarded with images and thoughts of Covid-19. It is in these times of uncertainty, that each of us must stand strong in what we know.  The dangerous place to be in is not knowing who and what you are, which is the only way you are going to come out of this pandemic unscathed, and stronger than before.

What I want to do today is simply encourage you.  What I'd like to accomplish is to provide you a road map so that you might navigate the roads ahead, for those moments that are surely going to try you.  It's no secret that I believe we are so much more than mere mortals.  I will admit that I have to remind myself of this fact daily, but reminding myself daily of my divinity is what has allowed me to rise above all the fear and dread that is out there right now.  Now I could take today's blog in two different directions.  I could go down the political path, but honestly, I'm not sure that would do any good. It doesn't matter whether one is Democrat, Republican, Independent, Socialist, Anti-Establishment, whatever.  No one side is going to agree with the other, as is evident in all the media coverage out there.  I could take this down the Religious path, but once again it wouldn't matter.  You could be a Christian, a Jew, a Hindu, a nothingarian, you name it, all have different views on what this world is going through right now.  What I want to focus on is you.  Believe it or not, you have the power to impact all of humanity.  However, this is only going to happen if you understand the significance of your being.  When one finds themselves in trying times, and we are living in trying times that is for sure, you have to understand all that you have been given.  If you fail to understand, or accept, the greatness that you are, then you are going to fall victim to all the fear that is out there right now.

There was a post on Facebook this morning, that is so timely.  It said, "Stay strong and centered.  You cannot operate at your best when you are consumed with chaos.  Trust that all problems will find a solution in Divine right time. Relax, and take care of yourself."   Now this is synchronicity at its finest.  When all looks bleak and ominous, take a step back and know that you have been equipped with all that you need to rise above all that is in front of you.  People fail because they still do not believe that they are superior to everything around them.  Now I'm not talking about being better than those around you.  They are plenty of people who think they are better than others, but that is nothing but foolish pride, and pride does indeed come before a fall.  When I talk about being superior I'm talking about all that you were created with, all that you were meant to walk in, all that you were created to be.  How many people have forgotten that affirming who and what you are is far more powerful than what is going on around you?

I am challenged each day to remember that I have dominion over all things.  There are days when I remember this, and there are days when I fail miserably at it.  Luckily for us, when we fail we simply move forward and realize that there is not a penalty period that we have to sit out because of our inaction or missteps.  My dear friends we must pickup our mantle and own who we are.  I would think that after being kicked in the ass so many times people would grow tired of all the garbage out there and decide that there has to be a better way of living.  Well, as luck would have it, there is a better way, and the better way is what was always intended for you.  If I could speak to every person on the face of the earth, I would encourage them to take a step back, think of what brings them joy, happiness, and love,  and simply live in those thoughts for a moment.  Joy brings joy, love, love, and allowing yourself a moment to experience these things will allow them to come into your life in greater measure.

It's easy to go with the flow and see all the doom and gloom out there. What isn't easy, at least it appears that way to me, is rising above it all, and standing in the knowledge that you are divine, and you have unlimited power.  My desire is to reach millions of people and simply encourage them to accept and understand who they are.  My mission, the reason I am alive right now, is to show others that they have a destiny, and why it's best if they decide to walk in that destiny.  My charge is to never stop until it is my time to move on to my next adventure.  Have you ever desired something so bad that you could almost taste it?  Well that is me when it comes to encouraging you to stand in your power, to understanding your uniqueness, to being who you were intended to be.  All the things going on around us at the moment are nothing more than a smoke screen, intended to get us off course and forget why we are here in the first place.  When you allow those things around you to dictate how you feel about who you are, to force you to deviate from your path, then you have fallen victim to what so many others have fallen victim to.

I send each of you love and light, and this final thought:  When everything around you seems to be breaking, stand firm.  When everything around you seems to be in chaos, stand strong.  When everything around you is screaming that this is the end, stand up and refuse to quit.  Now is not the time to grow faint in the knowledge of who you are.  Now is the time to remind yourself that you have the ability to stand above all of it, and help those around you to stand above it.  Please take a moment and share this blog with others.  We must unite in a common purpose, and that is to ensure that everyone knows this is snot the end, but an opportunity to discover who we really are.  Walk in your purpose, stand in your power, and shine your light so bright that there is no longer darkness around you.
