Woman
Embracing Womanhood

There are many ways and myriad reasons for women to honor and embrace all that they are. And when any individual woman chooses to do so, all women collectively move closer to becoming what they are truly capable of being. By honoring her experience and being willing to share it with others—both male and female—she teaches as she learns. When she can trust herself and her inner voice, she teaches those around her to trust her as well. Clasping hands with family members and friends, coworkers and strangers in a shared walk through the journey of life, she allows all to see the self-respect she possesses and accepts their respect, too, that is offered through look, word, and deed.

When a woman can look back into her past, doing so without regret and instead seeing only lessons that brought her to her current strength and wisdom, she embraces the fullness of her experience. She helps those around her to build upon the past as she does. And when she chooses to create her desires, she places her power in the present and moves forward with life into the future.

Seeing her own divinity, a woman learns to recognize the divinity in all women. She then can see her body as a temple, appreciating its feminine form and function, regardless of what age or stage of life she finds herself. She can enjoy all that it brings to her experience and appreciate other women and their experiences as well. Rather than seeing other women as competition, she can look around her to see the cycle of life reflected in the beauty of her sisters, reminding her of her own radiance should she ever forget. She can then celebrate all the many aspects that make her a being worthy of praise, dancing to express the physical, speaking proudly to express her intellect, sharing her emotions, and leading the way with her spiritual guidance. Embracing her womanhood, she reveals the facets that allow her to shine with the beauty and strength of a diamond to illuminate her world.

Insight is a phenomenal gift. It gives you the ability to function in this world of illusion. All of you are having a collective “dream” of sorts. This is why you are accepting what you see as reality. You buy into this simply by being present. It was your wish to believe that you are separate in order to “play out” your preselected dramas. You have the ability to transcend all of this if you so choose.

Why not accept the fact that you are Godlike. You are creating this planet and all that transpires here by being here and buying into this illusion. It can be different. You can have a different experience here if you will wake up to the fact that you are the ones who are creating your world of illusion.

This gives you all great power. It is then for you to decide what you will have here and what will transpire over time. When you realize that it is up to you, that will begin a change reaction that will multiply it’s effects over time.

It is a choice. A conscious effort that will begin this process. Simply ready yourself by being present in every moment of everyday. Begin by honouring yourself through LOVE and ACCEPTANCE of Self.

This is the way of transformation and this can change everything as you see it. Once you have accepted the fact that you are the ones who are creating this reality that you are living, you can also choose another path. Another way of BEING on this planet Earth.

The choice is yours.

Namaste and Love,
