I am still not a risk taker by nature. I have pushed my own envelope when I had to. Very uncomfortable. I've finally learned where my boundaries are and how to (most of the time other than a case of crisis) stay within them. So this week brings clear sight and understanding. Find your center... see who you really are, not who the world sees. Take care of you! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dawn Kiss published a note. August 3, 2010 Please join me.... The most we can ask for is to live as who we are. To be able to live within a state of Grace... within a state of Love. Who we are is not always who the world sees. There are times when it doesn't feel 'safe' to share all of us with the world. If we choose to anyway, it makes us extremely vulnerable. I am not a risk taker. I'm a homebody who enjoys the milder side of life. Yet when it comes to living... truly living... I do live on the edge.... sparing no emotions and fully living from my heart. It can be a wild ride at times, but for the most part... the journey is absolutely awesome. To live within a state of Grace does not mean that life is something that you would see through rose colored glasses. It means that one would have the ability to stay 'centered' while dealing with whatever life brings. When we live authentically it automatically brings balance to our souls. When we are in balance, we are more open to everything around us. Yes it is a more heightened way of living and the possibilities of getting hurt are very real. I have lived this way for many years now. Have I been hurt? Yes. I have also had the most growth in my life over the last 3 years because of this openness and vulnerability that I have accepted as a way of life. There have been some major disasters come into my life. The difference being is I was able to work through them without losing me within them. They did not take over my life. I still had control over my own responses to all of the outside circumstances that came at me. This enabled me to continue to live from a place of Love instead of chaos. I can't say that I haven't gotten upset or mad. I can say that those emotions do not last as long. The "air clears" so much faster than it used to. So for all of you, I ask you to try to live from your heart. Allow yourselves the opportunity to be open enough for the world to see your soul. Absorb each experience that comes to you completely. Hold onto the lesson and release anything that does not resonate with you. For those experiences that bring Joy to your Soul and Love to your Heart.... allow them to cleanse out all the chaos of the world. Will you be chaos free? No... but it will no longer reside within you. It will be in the outside world so that you can pick and choose how you wish to deal with it. This places you in control... not it in control over you. An open Heart.... I see the world through different eyes past the glitter and the ugly lies. My mind is clear, I have no fear for I can see you through your tears. Years ago I used to be you, I do understand all of what you're going through... it's true. There is so much piled upon your plate that there are days it seems as if you have a very grim fate. I was there... where you are now. I wanted my life to change but didn't know how to make my world any different than what it was until the day I "surrendered" and began to "trust". Oh my world did fall apart! And that glorious moment gave me a brand new start. Now I live as "who I am"... open, honest and from my heart. My life is now a blessing... as it should have been from the start. For now there is that state of Grace. I surrendered to this gentle, healing, loving place, a place where I finally belong... where my heart feels at home and my soul can spread its wings and freely roam. Come join me in this Sacred Space. Surrender and create your own gentle place. Know that you are not alone. I have your hand... open your heart... let us go home. created by Dawn Ellen Kiss copyright: August 2010 Look into your own eyes and see who you truly are. Gaze into the depths of your Soul. Surrender to the beauty of you and Trust that you are more than enough... for anything in life. Then open your heart and accept this truth. See in yourself what I see in each of you.... an incredible being who lights up my life. Thank you all for all you do... for all you share... and who you are. Many Hugs Dawn Originally Posted 7/2/17 Week 23.... "For Love is the antidote of abuse." Hit me like a ton of bricks... just like when I wrote that 7 years ago. Question is ... what really is 'Love'? It's not a noun. It's not a 'thing'. It is an emotion, but even more so... it is an action. Only through our actions can we truly show the emotion of Love. Words can always be empty. But... put those same words in motion and they take on a very different meaning at times. Don't get caught on words without seeing those words come to life. And remember.... it's not about the material aspect of life.... it's about what you can give when you have nothing left to give but yourself. If 'you' are not enough when you hit rock bottom, you will never be enough no matter how much you can materialistically give. That is not Love. That is a whole other world. That world breeds abuse. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dawn Kiss published a note. July 26, 2010 out of the Silence.... For the first time since late February I am actually sitting here in Silence. No thoughts coming... no feelings flying as they normally do. It feels as if the world has stopped and decided to stand still for awhile giving us the time we need to take a closer look at our lives. Sometimes a very uncomfortable spot. We've seen where we don't want to be. The question is... where do we want to be? Each of us have our own wants and needs to answer this question with. We are each individuals, so our paths would look a little bit different than everyone else's. Yet the end of our journey should be bringing all of us to the same place. Away from the darkened recesses of all forms of abuse and into the Light of Life. We should be brought there because we deserve to live within Love. For Love is the antidote of abuse. When there is love within the heart there is no hatred, no greed, no trashing of another person in any way at all. There is only giving.... for we know that there is an endless supply of love. There is more than enough to fill our hearts and openly give to others. I have witnessed so many people going through such hard times within the last two weeks. All different types of relationships... all different types of people. It's as if there is something in the air. Yet what is in each of their hearts is love... just waiting to be shared with another. Each of these people deserve to live within love, yet their lives look just the opposite of that. Several of them have been in abusive situations before and the 'leftovers' from those situations have a tendency to get in the way of their future. One lady recognized this and she is now moving forward with her life and is smiling brighter each day because she is welcoming the change into her life. If we resist changing the old familiar hurts than we suffer even more. We need to be able to open our hands and let go of our grasp on our past, so it can be removed from our hearts. Once empty of that old hurt, we are in a position to be filled with love. I sat here this morning looking at my life and seeing all the things I would love to change about it. There are business changes, residential changes and personal changes that I would really love to make. Yet even with all that up in the air, what is most important to me is to be able to share the blessings I have right this moment. That is living within love... to be able to open your heart and share ... without judgment, without retribution, without fear. To simply be able to be you. I am blessed that this is one thing I truly can do. I ask each of you today to look within your heart and see what is standing in your way of you walking into your future with your heart filled with love. IF you are already on that path and feeling the flow of love through you as you share with others....I thank you! To all those who are still searching their souls to see where they truly want to be... I open my heart and offer you love. For I believe in each of you. You deserve to be happy. You deserve to be free of your past. You deserve to live within a life filled with love. This is a song that caught my attention this morning. I'd simply like to share. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rktW3byqdOs Don Williams -- I Believe In You To each of you....you are loved and you are LOVE.

Every so often we do need a reminder. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dawn Kiss published a note. July 24, 2010 with Gratitude... For the last three weeks I have walked with you in the Shadows. Today let me take you back out into the Light... where it's easier to breath... to laugh... to be loved... to grow into who we were born to be. The shadows serve their purpose as reminders to stay within the Light. For visiting them only magnifies our growth. Falling backward and residing there undermines our growth. So close your eyes and take my hand. Come walk with me. Can you smell the salt air of the ocean? Can you feel the coolness of the breeze gently touching your soul? Can you hear the Sea Gulls laughing overhead at life? They know how to take nothing... all that is thrown away by humans... and turn it into a full course meal. Now open your eyes and look at your life. What blessings are there that are so small that they normally would have been over looked? I ask you to find one thing today to be grateful for...for I am grateful for you. Many Hugs, Dawn |
