We are nothing until we can feel that
we are made of love.’

We are nothing until we can feel that
we are made of love.’

Emptying our minds is one of the most useful things we can practise
in our lives. Some people can do this unconsciously, while others
have to do it in a conscious way. A silent moment of peace and
quiet in this busy world we all live in is a precious thing.
Silence, when positive, is a sigh of peacefulness.
It is a meditative harmonious reconnecting with the source we all come from.
This can give us a sense of calm, a feeling of renewal.
We feel refreshed when we have spent some time alone in our ‘bubble’,
or when we have had a little break from it all.
When our life is happy, our mind can tap into this calm state of being
whenever desired. It is also good to contemplate precious memories of joy
and harmony, giving us a feeling of contentment.
This is the plan the Divine has in store for us.
There are a lot of happy and loving people out there in the world, who
were able to stay connected with that loving energy they received as their
birthright. These are the children who grew up with the right foundations
and became loving, respectful, wise and compassionate adults.
Compare it to building a house. The right foundations and the proper
building materials are vital. All houses should be built with the right amount
of concrete, sand, water, stones, wood and insulation in order to be able to
offer protection from natural forces.
Unfortunately, not everyone lives with this sense of safety and harmony.
But we can all learn. Feeling safe is a feeling of being supported and protected,
by yourself, your family and friends, the Universe and its patterns of sacred Love.

Love is the Essence of the Soul Chrysalis
Liefde is de Essentie van de Zielen Coccon
2021 winner of public price: genre spirituality
A strong man thinks he has to always be strong,
a man of strength knows that he doesn't have to prove himself.
A strong man thinks he has to do everything alone,
a man of strength knows he can ask for help.
A strong man thinks he is responsible for everyone,
a man of strength feels he is part of a team.
A strong man makes things happen with his mind or body,
a man of strength follows his heart and soul for the right outcome.
A strong man pushes himself past his limit and becomes agitated,
a man of strength lets his possibilities guide him toward his true-self.
A strong man puts a yoke on his shoulders and suffers in silence,
a man of strength learns that responsibilities can be carried and shared.
A strong man thinks that he must be respected for what he does,
a man of strength knows that he is loved for his kindness.

For many years I've shared the poem: A strong woman vs a woman of strength, and have heard in many different ways how helpful it has been, and still is. Unfortunately the wonderful author of this poem is unknown.
One of my favourite teachers is Gary Zukav. He says, authentic power is when you learn to use your personality to serve the energy of your soul. So you are the bigger soul that has a personality, it's lovely, it's charming, but it's not me. I'm here to do my soul's work and I use my personality to serve the soul's work. You are here to be a vessel from the source from which you have come from and everybody has a different talent. Oprah Winfrey.
All your energy needs to be focused on is:
What do I have to offer?
What do I have to give?
How can I be in service?
Oprah Winfrey
Not everybody can be famous but everybody can be great. Because greatness is determined by service. And there is not a job in here that you can do, that you don't switch the paradigm to service and not make that job more fulfilling. Dr ML King
The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams.”
Passion is energy.
Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.”
Oprah Winfrey
