Time has slowed recently. My eternal moment of now is stretching itself and encompassing pieces of my experience that were previously uncombined and purposefully seperate. Everyday I climb a new step, reach a new peak in some way, become more than I was before even though I was never less than I am. The only failure, if I choose to see it that way, was my deciding not to see more of myself before.
Thats more of a generic statement about who I am, than a specific one relating to anything distinct taking place in my life now. Time however has slowed, even though events are moving more rapidly. I am calm, and in control, without being controlling of myself. My spirit and ego no longer battle.
I allow myself to realise only a few things consistently throughout the day. They are that I love myself, I heal myself and I forgive myself, without forgetting that I create myself, in every moment of the grander one that is now. Of late, my mantra has been "Thank You God, for the blessings I have received and those I am receiving".
Taking responsibility for myself, my actions, thoughts and words, has been an evolution from within. It is a very personal step and not open to analysis by another, unless by choice, although this should be reserved. One day is not the same as the next, and neither is taking one step forward or one back. As long as will and desire from within cause me to move in that way, then in that way shall I move. It is inevitable.
In creating my greater reality, I am contracting, for a while, connecting the dots and tying the laces of shoes that were once new to me, but have a comfortable fit now. Many of the things I have re-minded myself of are not yet unconcious. These gifts are now easy to manifest but I am not yet a master of them. In time, in time.
The important thing to see in this little ramble of mine. Well, it is that everything I desire to be and achieve, takes the exact tools and practices I have used before. I'm not aware of it, of how I came to use them in a time gone by, but to know that I have is enough. So all the things you so desperately seek, we seek; we already have. Something as simple as a purpose, is as simple as choosing it and being it. When it no longer serves you, set it aside.
Time is something we do not have much of they say, but there is more than enough for everyone, whether it seems to fleet on by or whispers across your reality like a slow daydream in a meadow. Time itself, is another tool.
So here I am, tying shoelaces and connecting dots, enjoying a tiny celebration within myself of achievment, of realizing a new plane of creation.
Some have wondered why my writing has slowed. It is simple, there is more than enough here in these archives, for those that choose to let it touch them. My work is not done, but this is the end of the beginning.
And as a tiny seed bursts open to reveal the most beautiful flower, realise that you are an infinite flower, with rainbow colored blooms waiting to be let out from within you, if you simply choose to be all that you can be... and give yourself permission to be that. Your spirit will never quarrel with you, your ego may rule your heart, but in time you will choose to be still, you will choose to allow your unconcious connection to the Universe to unfold within you .
There is no rush and no agenda. Simply being who you are is your purpose. Simply choosing your highest vision of yourself, is your next step. Be calm, for in the end, none of what you see outside of yourself matters, except that which is within.

Mikel,
Like you say, time is essentially insignificant to our purpose - where we are, and what we do. Time is one of those things we have conjured up in order to label something over which we have no control. It gives us a sense of control, even though we really have no control over the passing of moments.
I whole-heartedly agree that we are perfectly equipped for that which we are intended. So often, people lose focus on what is present before them and get lost in a whirlwind of "what if."
I enjoy your writing. I think you and I are on a similar journey. Thanks for taking the time.

Thanks for stopping by again Tim.
I don't quite agree that you and I have the same perception of time, but that does not have to matter unless it does.
In fact my experience of time manipulation is quite the opposite. Time indeed exists, we experience it, therefore it is.
We perceive it, move through it sequentially if we are unconcious and oblivious to its true purpose and properties.
Is time an illusion? I feel it is, but a necessary one that is crucial to the human experience I find myself enjoying. Without the illusion, we could not experience or have the opportunity to deal with matters in the context of past, future, present.
Mathematically though, Einstein and others have corroborated that it does exist, just not as we perceive it.
Other experiments have shown that everything is happening at the same time, and it is only our perception that slows it to the crawl we experience.
Is there a conclusion? Perhaps. I know my own experience is that time is a tool, it can be manipulated, at a personal level.
I once owned a company that I called Something, everything, nothing. Perhaps that is an analogy for time in all its flavors. Take from that what you will.
See you soon,
-Mikel
