Keep on Keeping on.

Today is simply a day to encourage you.  Today is a day to remind you of your greatness.  Today is a day to quietly reflect, and realize that you have all you need to get to your destiny and I'm confident you will get there.  We have been through a crazy period of time, and many have been affected with all that is going on around us.  What I want you to do today is  put all the hype, all the press, all the chit-chat going on around you aside and simply rest in your power.  When you can focus on who you are, what you are, and why you are here, then and only then will you rise above it all and be the blessing to the rest of the world that you were intended to be.

I have been reading with interest and encouragement all the post about this new season we are entering, this season of enlightenment.  It would be easy to set this all aside in light of what many are going through, but I encourage you to refrain from doing this.  When the going gets tough, the tough get going, a phase you have heard hundreds of times I'm sure.  There is such truth in this statement, and I want you to think about it for a few minutes.  When one only focuses on what is on the surface, then one misses out on the real, on the truth, and the significance.  If we fail to walk in our calling, if we neglect the power we have, if we turn and run, then we have given away all that we truly are.  Today is a day to stand tall and remind yourself that what you see is really an illusion, and not at all who we really are.  I understand how difficult it is to look past all that is going on right now, but what is going on right now cannot sway you from your true purpose.  What is going on right now cannot change who you really are.  What is going on right now should serve as a reminder that we can, and need to walk above it.

It's easy to encourage someone to keep calm and carry on.  It's easy to remind people that what is happening today does not mean it will happen tomorrow.  What isn't always easy is stepping away from all the negativity.  What isn't easy is staying clear from all the distress.  What isn't easy, and sometimes seemingly impossible, is reminding yourself that you were never created to worry about such things.  If you will begin to focus on what you know is real, your eyes will move away from all the things that aren't real.  Our minds have a difficult time with seeing something, and then trying to rationalize that you need not concern yourself with it.   We have been so conditioned to believe all we see, or all that we are told, even when we know it is contrary to the real us.  The real us is divine.  The real us is powerful.  The real you is a creator.  Now most of who you are is the polar opposite of what we see going on around us today.  The battle begins when others think you are nuts because you dare go against the rest of society.  The battle continues as you hold fast to your understanding of who and what you are, as the rest of society is digging deep just to survive.  No doubt that this is the challenge we face.

We've all faced challenges in our life, and yet we are still here today.  This current challenge is no different, and the outcome will be the same,  as we are still going to be here after it is all done.  If you will focus on the good, focus on the truth, you will overcome all the negativity and worry that surrounds you.  There are times when I simply have to shake my head and wonder.  If I had any doubt as to my divinity, my strength, my true self, I would simply climb under a rock and never come out.  It's almost impossible to go through a day and not hear about the end of time sitting on our door step.  It's almost like these people love creating destruction, fear, torment, etc, etc.  My anger tends to rise above acceptable levels when I am constantly bombarded by these idiots who have nothing but fear based words coming out of their mouths. I get that we need to be smart in our daily lives, but living in fear is not going to do anything but breed more fear.  I don't know about you, but I for one stay clear of fear as much as possible.

Here's Scott's words of advise: be true to your true self.  Rise above all the negativity, and simply rest in your understanding of who you are.  If you can stand in the knowledge of your I am presence, then you will keep on keeping on.  When it's all said and done you really only have two choices.  First is to go with the flow and allow all those things happening around you to pull you down to the level of misery that so many others are living in.   The second option is to stand in your power and refuse to let others dictate how you are going to live your life.  Certainly there may be some ridicule from others, but those "others" are the ones who fear the next day, and the day after that.  I so desire that every living creature could come to an understanding of their real essence.  How different would this world be if everyone, and I mean everyone, if they were free from egos grip?  We would have a world that was predicated on walking in happiness, joy, peace, tranquility.  We would be in cohabitation with others who knew that no matter what might be happening around them they could keep on keeping on.

I challenge each of you to take a stand.  I encourage each of you to make a shift.  When you are finally able to see life as it was meant to be, then and only then will you take your rightful place as a creator, as a power broker, and as a Divine Being.  As you begin to familiarize yourself with the real you, you will finally have the life that you have been dreaming of.  I promise you, it will change the way you see things, and as these things change so shall your entire existence change.
