Life is a journey, not a destination. ~ from the song “Amazing” by Aerosmith

​

My Life was, and continues to be, a journey of awakening. If you are reading this, chances are you are ready to start this journey for yourself. Whoever you are, the unadorned truth of human existence is that there is no destination. Had I believed there was such a thing and focused exclusively on it, I would not be alive today.

​

So many times during my miserable, addictive life, it felt like I'd reached the end, and I wanted to give up, but somehow, I didn't. To this day, it blows my mind that I survived and am now thriving. 

 

I had a powerful awakening of consciousness and became aware that LOVE is my true state of BEING and was always within, even when I could barely feel ITS flame. LOVE is what kept me going. Somewhere within me, I knew ALL IS WELL.

 

"All Addictions Come Out of Pain. 

  All Recovery Comes Out of Love."

 

Trust me; spiritual awakening is not for the faint of heart. Everything must fall apart before things can change. It is the way of nature. Old patterns, perceptions, beliefs, fears, thoughts, emotions, and ideas need to collapse because they are the real reasons we suffer, develop addictions and other negative behaviors, and not change.

 

"Our real issue is Mistaken Identity, not knowing the innate truth of who we really are."

 

I had a crisis of consciousness, an identity crisis of the soul whereby I could no longer accept my old "self."  However, my old identity desperately wanted to live, but I had to be willing to sit with my pain without self-medicating; it was the only way through. I had to stand my ground and allow the old self (Mistaken Identity) to die so that my true nature (LOVE) could live.

​

We can scream, cry, and stomp, but don't try to keep it all together because our old self must crumble so we can experience our true nature: LOVE.

 

Remember: There is nothing to fix. There is nothing to change. Allow the identity crisis to arise from its darkness, and the awakening will unfold.

​

"Those who have been to the darkest places will experience an equal, opposite LIGHT when they finally recover. It is not personal, it’s Newton’s third law of physics: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." 

 

I invite all readers to remove the disguise, to further explore that knowing, and to experience the miracle of who you are in deeper, ever-expanding ways.

 

Don't give up on your glorious opportunity to finally wake up and know that you are enough and will always be enough because you are already the LIGHT you seek.

 

I am here as a guide to help you remember your authentic self and get in touch with your true essence of love, peace, and joy.
