hearts reflect stars
the dust fossils on souls
their stayed truth
will not falter to fear and crowd
peace begets hope
hope begets love
love is a strength
that conquers separateness
we are one
jesus weeps
buddha smiles
mohamed sings
ali akbar
god is one

Gift of Life
October 18, 2013
Here’s a great story for you!
A group of scientists who having discovered the secrets of cloning decided they would have a conference with God to tell God He was no longer needed. Yes, God had created humanity and all of life, in fact, from the very dust of the earth. But now science had taken over the job and God could retire.
So the top scientists in the world gathered together and they called God to a conference having told God, He/She was no longer required.
God said, “Explain this to me.”
They said, “We now know how to make life out of dust ourselves.”
God said, “Well then, okay, you go ahead and show me how you can do that.”
So they reached down for some dirt and God said, “Uh, uh, uh, get your own dirt.”
I love that story because it just reminds us we get confused at times and think things really belong to us even our life itself. We begin to forget at times how precious the gift is of our daily life.
In everything we call ours, even our children, our spouses, our friends; they’re gifts on loan from the Universe.
How precious it is to have these gifts in our lives this day; to have eyes to see and ears to hear. This day is a gift and it all belongs to the one who sources all of this.
So this day let’s walk around in appreciation that we get to walk in the abundance of the gift of this life.
To Your Gift of LIFE,
Bryan

Accessing Your Genius
September 30, 2013
There was a study done recently at Harvard called the Zero Point study that was a ten year study on genius.
The genius capacity is demonstrated by certain individuals that bring forth great ideas, transformational thinking, movement, social change, innovative ideas that transform and transpose us to a whole new height of living.
What is this capacity?
The researchers began to define genius as the number of modalities with which one takes in information, synthesizes that information and makes use of it.
So you and I have many modalities with which we can take in information — auditorally, visually, kinesthetically, intuitively, etc.
But what they discovered was that 99% of babies—99% of you and me–operate at a genius capacity during the first eighteen months of life.
By the time we are five, only 22% of us are still operating at our genius capacity.
By the time we are twenty only 2% of us are still operating at a genius capacity.
What happens to us?
What they discovered in their research is that the shutting down of our capacities; the distancing of ourselves from our Genius Self happens through the learned voice of internal judgment.
We begin to doubt ourselves. We begin to question ourselves. We begin to look into other peoples’ eyes for who we are; for approval; for permission.
You have genius capacities in you. Today, connect to that genius. Trust your genius, and believe in the power of your dreams.
To Your Genius Self!

Absolem’s Question
September 21, 2013
One of the memorable characters created by Lewis Carroll in the Alice in Wonderland story is the hookah-smoking blue caterpillar with the name of Absolem. In Alice’s encounter with him he sits atop a large mushroom and blows smoke rings in her face as he asks the question “Whoooo are Yooooou?” When she answers “I’m Alice” he responds “we shall see” – “what do you mean by that – I ought to know who I am” “yes, you ought, stupid girl”.
Are you the name on your driver’s license? Are you the roles you play (father, mother, son, daughter, boss, employee, friend)? Are you your job title? Your political affiliation? Are you part of the 99% or 1% in the occupy movement? Your physical characteristics, gender, skin color, nationality? Your Facebook profile? You ought to know who you are, but do you?
How do I react when I believe this thought?
Who would I be without the thought?
Honor Your Discontent
September 19, 2013
We don’t always know what our life’s purpose or journey is supposed to be or we may have so many dreams we are overwhelmed with them all. However, one thing is for sure: if we are feeling restless or discontent we are not living our dreams! Feelings of discontent and longings for something else, even when we don’t know for sure toward what we are being drawn, are actually calls from our inner voice or God to pursue our greater good. We discover true desire by first noticing discontent.
When you experience discontent or feel restless and you’re not sure why, don’t shut it out just because you don’t know what it means. When you shut off your yearnings you become numb and paralyzed to create something more interesting. Bring those inner rumblings to the front of your mind for examination. These rumblings are nudging you toward a more meaningful existence and urging you not to settle for mediocrity. By opening yourself up to them for examination you are allowing your discontent to lead you toward your purpose.
We also need to be aware of messages from those around us and not let others criticize us into shutting down our dreams, or even our discontent. Restlessness is our inner voice speaking to us, telling us there is more out there and we are not here to lead limited cramped lives. Allow that voice to be louder and ring truer than anyone else’s. We are not here to settle for less than our purpose, nor should we settle for what anyone else limits us to. Each and every one of us has infinite potential for creating whatever it is we want to create.
Dreams and desires pull at us, tug at us, speak to us, and will not leave us alone because we are not meant to live cramped lives. Let these inner frictions rub until they create the spark that will ignite the fire of your own purpose. You will know when your desire is sincere when just talking about it gives you energy and incites motivation in you, even when fruition is far off. Harness your positive energy to partake in the plan that is in store for you. In doing so, you will be honoring your discontent and letting it lead you to your greater good.

The Power Within You
September 17, 2013
I’ve heard it said that some people live ninety years and others live one year ninety times. The difference is that those living their years to the fullest are living their dreams. We are all capable of living our dream lives when we open ourselves up to possibilities and opportunities.
We have been trained to look at conditions to determine what the opportunities and possibilities are for our lives, though these conditions can be limiting when viewed with just the five senses. When we live outside the standard senses and use intuition, imagination, and perception we are able to more clearly see our heart’s desire and the dreams that will bring us the happiness we yearn. We all have an inner voice but it is not one of reason or logic…it is the voice of guidance. This voice may not make sense to anyone else but it is there to help us recognize and nurture the thoughts that build dreams of our very own.
The underling principle of dream building is this: The power that is within each of us is greater than anything that is in our surroundings. The power that is within each of us is greater than any circumstance of our life. The power that is within each of us is greater than our history. There are all sorts of things that we can hold as ideas that will keep us from our dreams or, instead, we can use our thoughts in service of dreams instead of thwarting them.
Changing our thoughts to best build our dreams is a two-step process. First, we must release condition-based thinking. If we focus our thoughts on what we don’t want to happen, we bring about those circumstances. For example, if you want to lose weight and concentrate on not eating pizza, then you crave pizza and ultimately give in to it.
The second part of the process is to focus on what you do want to create, regardless of our conditions. Using the weight loss example, if you think about the delicious salad you are going to have for dinner then you look forward to that salad and do not think about the pizza that would thwart your efforts. This is true even if you work in a pizza parlor!
Each of us is the author of our own thoughts. The past or present does not need to dictate the future. Allow yourself to explore the possibilities of your dreams and fill your mind with what you would like to be and do and create and give. Use your inner power to write the future in a way that supports your dreams.
To Your Greatness!
We will be what we will to be.
March 22, 2013
Life is an inside out game. Through our own volition or will we can create a life we would love living. Take a look at this quote by James Allen from his book “As a Man Thinketh” and ask yourself if you are living according to Environment, Circumstance, and Chance or by Spirit and Will.
You will be what you will to be;
Let failure find its false content
In that poor word, “Environment”,
But Spirit scorns it, and is free.
It masters time, it conquers space;
It cowes that boastful trickster, Chance,
And bids the tyrant Circumstance
Uncrown, and fill a servant’s place.
The human Will, that force unseen,
The offspring of a deathless Soul,
Can hew a way to any goal,
Though walls of granite intervene.
Be not impatient in delays
But wait as one who understands;
When Spirit rises and commands
The gods are ready to obey.
