Sparkler of the Day – Let Go of Limitations
Here is the Sparkler for the Day – Letting Go of Limitations:
“Let go of your concerns over what other people think. Let go of even what you think about yourself. Our beliefs are limitations that keep us confined and addicted to how we think things should be, to what we think reality should look like. Our fears are real, yet they live from this place of quarantine. We have decided what is possible and what is not. We have decided how the whole world will play itself out. This is how we create our reality. We have decided that the impossible is, for us, just that – impossible. Literally.
How can we create from such a restricted place? How can we heal from a place such as this? We have put out the vibration that says, “I can go this far, but no farther”. “I can do this, but never do that.” “I can heal from this, but not from that.” We do not know what the outcome of our healing will be, for we are not God, of course. Yet, when we clamp down on and cling to our beliefs in our limitations, aren’t we really telling God how it’s supposed to be? Aren’t we making a proclamation that our healing power can only go so far and no farther? If we decide that we are doomed, we have chosen our position and thereby doomed ourselves.
Belief – travesty of the mind … if we allow it. If we can just step for one moment beyond this imprisonment, we have ventured into a larger world – a world of infinite possibility. We have stepped into the impossible. Who knows what will happen? Who knows what healing will ensue?
We look to other people and what they accomplish as a measure of what is possible for us. Because we are so stuck in our own limitations, we automatically see the limitations of others. Such a place is completely inadequate for us to bloom into ourselves. How can the impossible ever transmute into the possible if we are coming from the captivity of such constrained thinking? Take matters into your own hands. Allow yourself to rise into yourself. Reach beyond the programming and touch the stars – for as surely that they are out there, they are within you just awaiting recognition. You are ultimately an infinite being, as are we all. Why is it so difficult to believe this? If we are to expand into our full potential, it is incumbent on us to expand then beyond the walls of our limitation into the infinite nature of who we truly are.
Trust. Believe you can heal. Reach beyond your beliefs into surrendering yourself beyond the powers of the mind. Surrender to your experience. Allow all of it and be its witness. Whatever your story was, clear the slate. Let the space of pure presence work its power on you for it works in a land that writes its own story in every moment. It writes the story of creation, It writes the story of the impossible becoming possible.”
