Are We Growing Yet?

I recorded this in the month of July and was really feeling the green lush summer vibe. The topic for this month is growth, are we still growing? The fruit from spring is in bloom, the tomatoes are growing, and the fruit is full, so during this time of full growth, are we also growing?

Transcript

So here we are July,

Almost mid summer,

But can you feel that lazy summertime feeling vibe just moving through you and hopefully your life is slowing down just a tad and even if it is you're still growing.

That's the topic for the month of July is growing and I'm just asking are we growing yet?

I got a few questions today.

Yeah,

Like I always do.

But the thing about summertime is when this is when all the seeds and plantings that it happened in spring begin to bear fruit.

Literally,

I planted some tomato plants a little while ago and now I have little itty bitty tomatoes.

I'm so excited and I go out there every day and I talk to them while I'm watering and they just keep multiplying and I'm so happy.

I can't wait until I get to taste a few and you know and I people come over to my house.

I'm like,

Come here,

Come here,

Come here.

You got to see my tomatoes.

Oh my gosh,

Talk to them,

Send them love.

They're growing for you too.

Okay,

I'm a little nuts but the truth is this is the time for growth summertime.

It's the time for coming to fruition.

It's why there's graduations in the beginning of summer not just because school's over but because the students have ripened enough in order to graduate to move to their next yet to be their next level and I was doing some writing about boundaries and frontiers because I found that frontier is the leading edge of a boundary that a frontier is the leading edge of a boundary and I'm I've been playing with the idea of seeing frontier as the frontier of our potential our potential.

So I really believe with what's happening in the world what's really happening in the world which has been crazy we are at that frontier of potential.

We are at that place where we get we are going to be moving into whether we like it or not into the next yet to be into what we're capable of.

So I want you to think about this this is this is about growing this is about growth.

I want you to think about this are you choosing to grow mentally,

Emotionally,

Spiritually?

Are you choosing to grow?

Are you standing on that edge and having your boundaries that the thing you know your the territory you know that you're comfortable with holding you back?

Are you allowing yourself to be held back by beliefs by what people are saying to you in the media by what friends are saying to you out of fear out of anger out of purity stubbornness as my grandmother used to say?

Are you being held back or are you on that edge that frontier edge where there are so many potentialities you can grow into you can move into potentialities for peace.

Hello are you listening potential for peace because that to me is human potential that is growth growing into peace potential for human rights to be upheld and observed human rights human rights so that means the right of every man woman and child regardless of race creed color religious belief that's our frontier we're standing at that's the potentiality of growth for humanity is respecting even if you don't understand it respecting another's opinion or belief but not allowing those opinions or beliefs to hold you back from your personal growth your personal opinion your self-expression so every one of us I say this often on empowering chats every one of us is a divine spark that means we are that seed of light and I calling light leaders are you going to lead from fear and anger are you going to stand at the edge of your personal frontier looking at the vastness out there and it may be you know it's unknown it's unexplored hence the star tack track you know thing the final frontier of space but it is unknown it is unexplored are you going to stand at that frontier of your personal potential and continue to do the same old same old do as you were told do as you were taught I don't know I don't know are you or are you going to choose to grow to expand into this potential that we are all at the precipice of the potential for loving kindness to feed the earth to feed the humanities to feed people kindness and love or are you going to continue to allow yourself to do as you're told to hold your tongue you know I'm not saying go out and protest or any of that unless you want to you know unless you want to but I am saying really think about where you're going next in this summertime in this almost midway point of 2022 again my theme is re-emergence how are you going to re-emerge in the world and what we're witnessing currently it it looks as the same old it doesn't look like a re-emergence it looks like a winding back into somebody said today I was talking to the stone age you know where women don't have rights and children don't have rights and many people of color don't have rights that's a stone age and we've just witnessed in America yet again maybe we're the innovators I don't know are we are we just going back into old old old caveman behavior if that's the truth and we're not growing if we're becoming innovators there's got to be a better idea there's just got to be a better idea people so so standing at the frontier of your potential so I want to read something by my mentor Ernest Holmes because if if you really really really deepen yourself go within and ask your gut or your heart system am I a spiritual being and listen chances are you're going to say yes but being a spiritual being here on planet earth that means we've got to be vigilant on how the masses influence us individually and that because that means that you're not listening to your gut right you're not listening to that place within which g-u-t I think it's g for guidance u for understanding and unity and t for truth and trust so trusting that the truth that you believe from your gut from your heart is your truth and trusting it and being guided by that but also understanding other people's truth so if we are spiritual beings which I would say yes check that box already you don't even have to think about anymore since we're spiritual beings we are always at that cutting edge that leading edge of our own personal potential because we are co-creators with the infinite co-creators you know this is what the whole secret thing is about and all of that so if we're co-creators what are we creating right now are we so you can create the same old same old right or you can begin to really envision what your potential is and begin to activate it activate it by acting on it so my mentor Ernest Holmes says that principle spiritual principle it's a or spiritual law is not bound by precedent there is no law in the universe that seeks to perpetuate old limitations there is no law in the universe that seeks to perpetuate old limitations there's no law in the universe I'm adding this that seeks to go backwards go backwards what the hell is happening I digress but there is a law which responds to our greater vision at the exact level of that vision okay so what that means is this law that is co-creating with you it responds to your vision what you're seeing and if all you're seeing is the same old same old and doing to as you've been told crap if that's all you're seeing then that's all we're gonna get people there needs to be an expanded vision a larger vision a more gracious loving kind vision because what's happening right now is I see an erasing of human rights not just in America you know but we are are the land of the free the the home of the brave why are we not why are we not upholding human rights for every woman in this country every man and child why are we not upholding those human rights they're fundamental they're fundamental it's in our it's ingrained in our culture in it's ingrained in pieces of our constitution so what Ernest Holmes suggests is we create a larger vision beyond the old vision beyond the old limitations and he says that your the mind your mind should be kept in a buoyant up upping you know up leveling buoyant expected enthusiastic attitude so in other words whatever's happening if it's getting you down bring yourself back up bring yourself back up you're the only one that can bring yourself back up all the weightiness and confusion must be eliminated and we must think back to that which is boundless and free and that is the human spirit people boundless and free so if we're able to do that he says just as surely as we do this we shall find that the prison walls of the lesser self the small little ego self who wants to be rich and famous the small little ego self who wants to believe that January 6th at the Capitol didn't happen it's my little ego self okay we've that's the prison we're in so we can find that the walls of the lesser self will begin to crumble if we keep our expectation high if we keep our vision high if we do not believe that what happened before will be repeated we can stop this now everyone we can absolutely shut it down by believing in the spiritual idea that precedent is not bound it is not what happened before is not what binds us it's our unawareness unwillingness that binds us that keeps us small that keeps us rewinding into the past into the caveman times so he says as those walls begin to crumble the horizon of experience begins to push itself hence frontier begins to push itself away from what was and because more spiritual terror so as it's pushing itself away more spiritual territory comes in is taken in and greater experiences are bound to follow and that means that as we pushed our frontier of potential out into that potentiality that each of us are as we grow as we grow from the inside out as we grow our awareness as we grow our voice points as we grow our gifts our talents and move those out into the frontier of potential then we'll have a much better world much better of course that's my opinion you don't have to take my opinion but because we're talking about growth i will add this one last thing every individual who is incarnated in this time and place on planet earth whether you are in america or another country every single one of us chose to be here now chose to be here now and so i am again calling the light leaders that may be listening to be that in your own individual lives however it works for you just be that and be more of that and don't let don't let the old belief systems the old limitations take you down don't go into anger and fear and wanting retribution that doesn't work we've seen it we've seen it that's what january 6th at the capital was anger and fear and retribution over a made-up thing okay my opinion again over a made-up thing so if you want to be a light leader if you want to be your highest potential if you want to move out into that frontier of creative expression for whatever your talents are i invite you to do it because that's growth that's human potentiality and you have the right you have the right the god-given right to be fully who you are empowered happy doing what it is you do doing what you love being with people you people you love and moving out into the new frontier did you hear the star trek theme i think i heard it oh my gosh the new frontier so that's my show talking about growth i hope it really inspired you and i'm just gonna end with and so it is namaste okay
