| Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-2-2008 This is in general the time of year when we all reflect back on our lives … I’d like to take a moment before you begin reflecting to say … STOP! Life comes with good times and bad … please do not waste a single minute reflecting on the bad unless you can pull something positive from it in the end. Dwelling over negative issues from our past does us no real good. There is a point where we must face our inner demons and sometimes that does cause for us to visit the past .. but I say visit it and then move on.. don’t let yourself get stuck in the past. Today is today .. it is not tomorrow or yesterday .. live in the now and find some happiness where you are at this moment ... Looking back and having a time of reflection is often needed … it helps us see what we have over-come and far we have traveled .. Often though we can find ourselves living in the past .. somehow we get stuck there and find it hard to move on.. So just be careful as you reflect not to get stuck in another time .. Many Blessings, Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-3-2008 Deep within the depths of my soul.. at the very core of me where all thoughts and all emotions are born ..... . . . . . . . . . . . . . What? Where you expecting some deep .. well thought out bit of knowledge???? Well, that will teach you !! LOL.. Go out .. enjoy life.. laugh.. giggle and have some fun! Many Blessings, Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-8-2008 I am told that today’s message should be about finding happiness where you are .. There is no person, place or thing that can bring one happiness.. true happiness is found within. You take with you everywhere you go and in everything you do the rainbows of your soul… your own happiness follows you and is in everything you do … and everywhere you may find yourself.. It is not to be found in any one person, place or thing…. And so it cannot be lost or left behind… The journey is short …you don’t have to travel very far … just take a few steps within and you shall see the glowing light that has always been there … the light of love and happiness … Recognize that the power to be happy is within and not without … It is a choice.. and that choice is yours and yours alone. Many Blessings, Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-9-2008 Take care that you do not feed the ego more than you feed the spirit! Many Blessings, Raventalker "Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep." – Scott Adams Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-14-2008 Affirmation….. Affirming your beliefs is something that takes place within… you carry with you all the time your affirmations.. you live and breathe them as you walk this Earth path. Your affirmations are in all that you do. It is your heart that is the golden pouch that carries your affirmations. It is not necessary to show the world what you believe in each day .. but it is necessary that your heart stays true to self. Some feel as though they must do something tangible on a regular basis to affirm their beliefs … They may feel that there are missing something or neglecting if they don’t spend as much time as possible drinking in from every aspect of their belief system. I say to these people… stop for just a moment and take a look inside that golden pouch that carries your affirmations… have your affirmations not followed you everywhere you went and in everything you did… even waking, sleeping, sweeping, washing dishes and doing laundry? Sometimes it is necessary to do nothing … to take some time to go within and reflect on what you have done .. what you have learned. Explore more of that which you already have … too many outside sources may cloud and clutter the mind.. Allow some time to clear the mind … now is a time to cleanse I’m sure you understand the aspect of starting too many projects at once… what happens most often is something gets left undone.. Allow yourself more time.. Many Blessings, Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-15-2008 Finding your way…. Over the years I have seen the question come up many times .. “How do I find the right path for me?” I cannot tell you what path to follow or how to find your path but I can tell you how I found my own and continue rediscovering my path.. my way in this world.. It would be easy if all roads were paved and smooth and ran in a straight line to where you want to be …. But the many paths are not smooth and certainly not paved!! I see our paths more like hiking trails up a very large mountain … the trails are our choices .. the things we take on.. the way we live our lives .. some head straight up the mountain and some curve around and around that mountain … some are loopty loos and take us in a few circles as we ascend… The Mountain is this lifetime … this Earthwalk The top is where all the paths lead and where we all wish to find ourselves at the end of our journey.. at the top looking over all that we had accomplished… all that we had been through and all that we had survived. Finding where you belong can be a very long road .. don’t expect to open a book and suddenly find your way and then again it could happen that way …lol.. By reading about many different ways is a good way to begin finding out where you do or don’t fit in. It also opens your mind to ways you probably never thought of and yet possibly felt within. Experience life .. Go out and meet new people .. put yourself out there to take in all experiences .. Most importantly learn to go within yourself and follow your heart.. your heart will always be true to you when the head might interfere I feel that life is a journey of exploration where we are constantly learning about who we are and where we wish to be. I, myself will continue rediscovering my path as I make my way up the mountain… I learned a long time ago not to expect things to stay the same.. and that change is inevitable.. I describe my own path as coming from everything .. all .. I am not of one religion or belief I am from all … My ancestors come from all over and in many lives I have experienced and not all of the same place, religion or path.. I have been on many different trails up the mountain and from each I have taken something with me and carry it over onto this life .. My path I have found is to live and enjoy the hike up the mountain .. to honor and respect all that come to pass as I make my way to the top. Many Blessings in finding your way, Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-17-2008 It may very well be that ones soul purpose in this life is to know suffering and all it's many faces. The above statement may not be a very positive statement ... but it is a statement in which many I'm sure can identify with. There are times in life when we find ourselves at the bottom of a pit and a neverending string of unfortunate events or decisions. It can be so hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.. we find ourselves giving up all hope... we find ourselves loosing faith. I hope in this post I did not upset anyone .. but rather let them know that they are not alone in having these types of feelings. We need to find our strength in Faith.. Knowing that there is a light .. knowing that we carry that light .. even in the deepest pit we have what is needed inside ourselves.. the light lives within us always.. we just need to let it shine.. I am usually one of positive thoughts .. the one who delivers a bit of light and hope .... Todays message may have struck some a bit wrong ... it may have passed on the message that well you might as well give up.. you're just hear to suffer... Then again it may have brought out feelings of anger .. saying oh hell no .. I'm not here just to suffer and that's it .. It may have put a bit of fight back into ya ... which is a great thing indeed! It may also have made you shake your head and say nope.. I have suffered but I have always in the end gained. I myself have been through more crap than I care to bring up.. at times it seems a never ending circle.. but looking back I can see the sparks of light, love and laughter mixed in .. Those sparks outshine the worst of what I've been through and it seems at times the more I go through the brighter my sparks at the end. Either way .. I come out a bit wiser with each obstacle I have come to conquere.. Lessons I have learned and each time I feel myself growing to new understanding of myself. Many Blessings to all .. May suffering forget your address and visit you no more, Raventalker Many blessings and may you never have to see so many faces of suffering Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-20-2008 Today's wisdom is dedicated to all us misunderstood women! Where I've come from… Let me tell you where I've come from so that you might understand me just a little bit better… I come from a place where one says one thing but means another.. a place where lies are the line of the day, a place where truth has never tread. A place where the words "I love you" have been heard many many times.. but the actions behind those words spoke of something completely different. "Don't worry, I'll be with you forever" "I'd never do anything to hurt you" "Honest" "I promise, I'll never do it again" "I'm going to change, I promise" "Trust me" "You're the only one" "I love you" These are words that should be comforting … but somehow they were not. It was as if they were recorded on a loop and played over and over again. The words stayed the same and so did the actions. I come from a place where "give and take" meant I give and give and give and someone else takes and takes and takes. A place where compromise meant I had to give in to "That's just how he is". A place where me asking for love, truth and loyalty just meant that I was a bitch and asked for way too much. A place where needing to be held just meant I was too "needy". A place where all rights were reserved for the other person and mine were .. well.. I had none… I deserved nothing. So now you know a bit of where I've been and now maybe you can understand… If I want a hug or a kiss .. or just to be held for a while.. maybe it's just because I like being with you and appreciate your company.. your love.. your touch.. I am "Needy" yes indeed I am.. I need to know that someone wants me around.. looks forward to seeing me at the end of the day and wants to be near me as much as I want to be near them. I not only want to hear those words "I love you" but I want to feel them as well. I want passion and love … I want to feel the steam rise off you when I run my hands over your body .. I want you to want to be with me…. I want to be able to make you smile with just a look .. I want you to feel my love and know it's true. I know it seems like a lot I ask.. but it's no less than what I give to you .. my heart.. my love.. me. Many Blessings, Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-21-2008 Everyday is a new day .... Everyday is a new opportunity to make life what you wish it to be.. Everyday is another chance to bring your dreams to reality... Keep positive thoughts ... make every action a kind, loving one.... Don't let anyone put down your dreams.... Take action... Smile... :-) Many Blessings, Raventalker Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-22-2008 I'm told to send this message out .. not sure who it's for .. so here it goes.. Hold tight... steady your feet and hold your ground,.... the weather is clearing and the storm is almost over... sunny days, laughter and happiness are just ahead. Hold tight! Many blessings, Raventalker Also I am to give you the Tiger Totem... The Tiger is the symbol of darkness and the new Moon. When a Tiger totem enters your life, expect new adventures. It will awaken new passion and power. Tiger people do their best work at night. They are very sensual and passion people and devoted parents. Your best work will be done at night. Tigers are associated with water and have all the properties of the element of Water – healing, power through gentle flow, feminine energies. In China, there are 5 mystic tigers: The red tiger is south, summer and fire, the black tiger is the symbol of north, winter and water, the blue tiger is east, spring and vegetation, the white tiger is west, autumn and all metals, the yellow tiger is ruler of the Earth and its energies. Daily Wisdom by Raventalker 1-25-2008 Today’s wisdom is something I wrote a year ago or so…. Thought it would be a good time to revisit the thought. Can you feel it ? The Wind.. have you stepped outside and stood still just to feel the wind .. how it rushes by you and wraps its translucent arms around you .. have you allowed it to wipe clean all the negativity from your being .. and allowed it to take all that is not good away from you… have you taken in the beauty of the wind and the freedom that it symbolizes. Have you? The Rain have you stood out in the rain lately and just allowed it to drench your soul.. let it wash over your body and wash away your worries.. your fears.. your sadness and your grief… have you felt the rains watery embrace….. have you felt the beauty of the rain .. have you allowed the rain to fill you with love and nourishment …..have you taken in all that the rain symbolizes and gives .. have you? The Sun have you laid upon a bed of clover on a sunny day and allowed the suns rays to fill you with light.. from the inside out … have you felt the suns warmth .. have you felt its warm embrace hold you and comfort you ….. have you seen the beauty of the sun and all that it gives.. have you allowed the sun to help you grow like the flowers in the field .. the trees in the park and the roses in the garden .. have you? The Moon have you sat beneath the full moon and seen its beauty…. have you felt the magic .. the power the moon holds.. have you allowed the moon to embrace you and hold you within the dark night have you felt the moons love .. have you been witness to the many gifts the moon allows.. have you? Have YOU? Have you felt what the world around you gives? Do you know of the magic that surrounds us all? Have you listened to the world and have you heard the secrets the earth whispers in your ears .. ? Can you feel its energy? Do you know the love? Even tho so ignored by most .. the Earth , she still gives.. she still loves.. many take and take and take .. and yet never even think of giving back or even to say thank you .. She has no breaks no vacations.. no pay and no acknowledgment .. but yet she continues to give.. continues to care and continues to take care of all the children that play upon her surface.. Today take a minute and think about what you do .. think about how you would feel if so mistreated and ignored Just think about it ..
