Affirmation 78

Today...


I Am standing on a foundation greater than I.


I walk strong in the knowing of Whos I am.


I humbly kneel in gratitude for Why I am.






It is only because of The Universal Energy...I am ready and able to continue...






I Am more powerful than I realize.


I Am greater than I give myself credit for being.


I Am a beneficial portion of The Atmosphere Tapestry.




Whatever happens...I know The Universe has GOT Me...




Our actual time and space are spiraling faster toward the inevitable grave...
We do not have time...We cannot make time...We cannot alter time...


So in the right now...right here...make NOW count...as if we have no tomorrow.

The Impact of our Speech

Well Dear Ones...


Here we are...
Working on some really powerful things together.




Knowing our Worth
Being Thanks Filled and full of Gratitude
Learning how effective Meditation can be
Exercising LOVE and Light energies within for the without
Asking ourselves the questions that should challenge our complacency
Fulfillment of our Great I Am ness...




Now...I'm adding another Strength piece to our puzzle...




The Impact of our Speech....The absolute power wrapped up in our words...


This "Power House Source" within our existence is another Phenomena...


One of my most immediate cousins (more like brother) has told me...reminded me from a very young age..."Lyphe...your words are powerful because The Universe is listening...be careful of what you say...be careful of what you ask for...because The Universe is listening."


As a child...I didn't understand why THEE UNIVERSE was "ear hustling" every word I was saying anyway...why would The Universe care about the words I had to say...so in other words..."yeah right...okay...sure...thanks?!?"
#thankTheUniverseforgrowth!!!!!


I did not challenge it...I just stuck the information in the memory bank not really expecting it to be withdrawn...


By nature...I consider myself an "internal" pessimist...weird right?!?!!!!


I can give everyone...everything my support and not even consider myself a positive addition to The Atmosphere.


I can't read (was on a 5th grade reading level in 9th grade...#thankyouWendyA)
I can't write (obviously an ABSURD lie...offense to my Brilliance brand...says self published author)
I can't sing (wwweeeeellllll....maybe just a little...but that's all...!!!!)
I can't inspire
I can't encourage
I can't support others the way I've been supported
I'm not built that strong (Oh Em Gee Guys...if I were any STRONGER...I'd be an damn ox)
I'm not a public speaker
I don't have the educational background
I'm not
I can't
I shouldn't
I couldn't
Blah...Blah...Blah...Blah...Blah




Then during yet another pitty party...the memory bank automatically withdrew my cousin's reminder..."The Universe Is Listening"...


Well Dang!!!...all this time I'd been saying ALL the wrong things and NOT ONLY did  I get the slap in the Lyphe result...but everywhere I put the wrong speech...I damaged my progression.


As a woman
As a mother
As a spouse
As a child
As a friend
As an employee
As a spiritual temple


Everywhere I'd said "Nasty" things to The Universe about It's creation of Lyphe...I paid a price for offending The Great Atmosphere...polluting the "Heir Conditioning" that was underway with actual lies of illusion...


So I tried it Guys...


I said I CAN learn to read (I do well...and how I LOVE it)
I AM a positive addition to The Great Atmosphere
I WILL make my voice heard
I AM WORTHY
I AM PRECIOUS
I AM a Wonder of Creation
I WILL give my Better and Best self


What I released as my thought process...through my lips into the air...returned a direct reflection of my utterance...


It was an epiphany I'll NEVER forget...nor abuse EVER again...


The Creation Power Source is watching...waiting...LISTENING...to what we consider valuable about/within our existence...we are woven into The Universe...we are individual patches in the tapestry of eternal existence...


What we radiate...is what drives our Shine...is what impacts the tapestry


IF we radiate negativity and pessimism and destruction...we'll be dim... we will  flicker...sometimes go out...
IF we radiate inner positivity and peace and LOVE...we'll ILLLUMINATE any space we enter...whether we notice it or not (done properly...you won't notice!!!)


Now don't be fooled...you don't have to say it from your mouth for your energy to be heard by The Universe...our words just quicken the forces...




Be Empowered with Good Speech (which really means good thoughts)...
you impact the every thing around you. (I meant it how it's written)
You are the most important and necessary piece in The Universal tapestry...tap into SELF with Gratitude, Grace and Great Speech...


Speak LOVE and Light with authority...then watch what it yields.


I LOVE you... YOU MUST LOVE you MOST.

I cannot thank you enough... for sharing this abundant Universal Power Source GIFT with me...

The Art of Gratitude 3

The Practice of Patience...

Greetings Loved Ones,

Okay...today's "Chop It Up" comes directly from the core of my "Self Place"...

*Honest Zone*

I am a mother of 3 beautiful, brilliant, loving children...and on EVERY day ending with the letter Y...I am charged with exuding PATIENCE...

It's a rough gig...I promise!!!

One thing about being an involved, hands-on mother is...much of my time is spent training, coaching, rearing, guiding, engaging my 3 "Branches".

They require MUCH attention...as any child would...MOST of the in-depth saturated time is spent...breathing and asking The Universal Source for strength and PATIENCE...#thestruggleisREALyall!!!!

My children while the "so called" students...most certainly are my teachers.

The patience I feed into their individual lives...am I giving myself?

The patience I find to make my way through whatever situations the "Branches" face...do I give this same grace to myself?

The honest answer is NO...

While I exude patience...I also lack room for Lyphez need for patience with her SELF.

When we've worked hard at our places of employment with no positive or visible flexibility in our financial return...

"I do my BEST at what I do daily...I'll be patient."

When we've made all of the best decisions regarding our lives and things still haven't turned out the way we hoped, envisioned, wanted...

"I've done my BEST to do right...I'll be patient."

When we give of ourselves until we have hardly any left and we take a break from being the world's All in All but feel guilty 

(because we've been mentally conditioned)...

"I've given all of me and cannot give any more until I reset...replenish...renew my self...I must be patient."

PATIENCE is giving ourselves the needed room to expand...retract...lengthen...shorten...every aspect of ourselves...

Lyphe Flexibility.

We cannot always be everywhere all the time

We cannot always fix everything and everyone all the time

We cannot drain ourselves of ourselves and expect those we love to get the 

BEST Self we have to offer

We cannot make excuses for why we neglect loving and nurturing and caring for SELF.

We've got to take the Growth Process one step at a time...one breath at a time...one task at a time...

As long as we keep reaching up...we allow Patience to become apart of our living growth process.

Each life process requires us to encourage ourselves with LOVE and Patience...just like we do with those beautiful "Branches" or "Seeds" we call children.

I am my BEST self and the epitome of my Self today... I cannot be any more than I am right now and it's OKAY in this moment...

"It's OKAY"...is the Practice of Patience

I like to call The Practice of Patience...my "Job Wait Ability"...he had everything and he then lost everything and then regained everything...

Hhhmmm?!?!!!....

*Disclaimer*

Using patience as an excuse to become or remain stagnant is NOT what I'm speaking on today.

The Practice of Patience I'm driving home is within the WORK you're doing to BEcome the BEST you ever. NO excuses fit into these levels of growth.

The work is HARD

The challenges we face are seemingly regular occurrences

The time we have to get the work done is short

The means are slim

The mountain is treacherous

The valley is uncomfortably low

The pressure is painful

But I'm doing my BEST with the me I am today...looking for an even better me of the future...I'm OKAY...I'll be patient with myself and The Universal Source which has EVERY THING in and of my Lyphe under total control.

Go KISS yourself. 

"It's OKAY"...looks Amazing on you.

I LOVE you. I want you to LOVE you MOST.

The Pathway to Healing

*Honest Zone*

Sometimes I can be really "OPEN".

I've learned  throughout my time on Earth that silence was a destruct process within my Lyphe.

Silence hurt

Silence harbored

Silence formed non-realistic ideologies that could have been "fixed" had I opened my mouth...

Silence in so many different ways...shapes...forms...

Hurt my Lyphe

Silence suppressed all of the things I should have been allowing Lyphe to let go of.

Silence drove me into corners I'd created and didn't realize it.

Silence oppressed my Inner Divinity by breaking me with pressure.

Silence...Hurt my Lyphe

So Dear Ones...I opened my mouth WIDE and let it ALL out.

The first time I released my thought...my feeling...my stance verbally...there was no turning back.

I felt relief from the pressure. I felt FREE. I felt a mending process begin.

I became SO vocal (sorry Loved Ones...hehehehe!!!)...I ran my mouth like a faucet!!!!

Sis. Lyphe...why you talking your Lyphe business everywhere?!?...

I asked myself this a few times too...until I understood...

The Pathway to Healing was to share my struggle, my pain, my mistakes, 

my journey, my lessons...to HELP someone else...

We talked about that Pay It Forward policy...

SHARING...in whatever form it comes...or in this case comes out...is the gift.

If I'd never said I was a child victim of molestation...how would another victim begin The Pathway of Healing

If I'd never said I suffered with suicide and chemical imbalance...how could I encourage another FIGHTER to continue fighting...  

;Our Story Isn't Over Yet;

If I'd never opened the notebooks and began writing... on the candy wrappers...on the walls...on my hands...on my clothes...on the imaginary tablet in the air...in every journal ever gifted to me...then my poetry wouldn't live and my fellowman's voice (too shy to yet speak) would be sunken into an even deeper silence.

The Universal Power Source puts us through trial after test after stress after worry after care after trauma after fear factor after pain after grief after loss...

Why? So that we can OPEN OUR LIVES up to each other and SHARE our "You're NOT Alone" stories...

Ssssooooo...that's what I started doing... SHARING...Paying It Forward...Being open because of The Universal Gifts through Lyphe Lessons...

Now it's your chance...open up in some way and begin The Pathway to Healing for SELF and someone else...that's what your Lyphe is ALL about...

someone else.

I LOVE You. I want you to LOVE you MOST.

The Art of Gratitude 2

Universal Power Source,

I am thankful for the ability to move void assistance.

I am thankful for the ability to process the thought of gratitude

I am thankful for being SPARED during a time within my existence...most difficult to understand  and witness

I am thankful for the ability to breathe

I am thankful for the provision...ANY provision...ALL provision

I am thankful for never being alone in the Universe

I am thankful for the inconceivable gifts

I am thankful for another opportunity to make TODAY count like none other

I am THANKS FILLED from the Place of Gratitude.

Thank you Universal Power Source...






I love you.

The PHENOMENA of Love

Dear Ones...

There is NO THING in this world as brilliant, majestic, beautiful, precious, beneficial, PHEMONENAL as The Art of LOVE...

LOVE is indeed an art expression...

LOVE has so many different variants and uses and variables and qualities...it's an actual PHENOMENA.

Love (the word) has been mistreated and abused and muddied...

Lucky for us...LOVE is felt...heard only by the heart, the soul, the Inner Self... and not by the ears.

LOVE is a gift given to us first by The Universal Energy BEFORE our conception...Yeah Guys...

We were a Universal Process prior to our carnal conception...

We were LOVED by The Universal Force before our parents even knew each other!

LOVE is too the first thing we NEEDED in order to survive...even at birth...studies have been conducted and shown with newborn infants...how different the child's natural response to general existence is with and without LOVE... the baby that lacks love...could die.

We ALL need LOVE because we are created from a LOVE place....

the AGAPE Power.

And why wouldn't we be deserving of this PHENOMENA as we are created WORTHY...

The LIGHT within us is from the Universal Energy LOVE Source... LOVE is nothing more than the I AM within our individual I am...

We shine, we glow, we thrive, we positively impact, we change, we create, we give life, we flourish...with LOVE... (it's kinda all we know!!)

There are so many ways LOVE is exchanged...it's almost krazy!!!

LOVE is tolerance

LOVE is kindness

LOVE is sometimes silence

LOVE is patience

LOVE is sometimes NOT engaging

LOVE is tender

LOVE is strong

LOVE has it's own discipline

LOVE comes from a place we CANNOT control

LOVE is meaningful

LOVE is wise

LOVE is giving

LOVE is sometimes withholding

LOVE is easy

LOVE is sometimes very intense (not a physically passionate place)

LOVE is sensing

LOVE is benevolent

LOVE is charitable

LOVE is emotional

LOVE is intelligent

LOVE is sometimes a pain filled process

LOVE ENDURES

LOVE heals

And the list of LOVE goes on and on and on and on because 

LOVE is a PHENOMENA...

YOU...Beloved are a PHENOMENA because you are created in the Brilliant Beauty of LOVE...

It makes the world around you keep going round and round.

Stay on the wheel of LOVE...

Sow LOVE...Reap LOVE...Share the LOVE that is you with Creation...Feed yourself and others the nourishment of LOVE

I do love you... I want you to fall in LOVE with Loving YOU most.

You are a PHENOMENA.

#OMG...

The Present Gift...

Namaste Dear Hearts,

*Honest Zone*

I've wasted TOO MUCH precious time...living (as my mother says) looking in the rear view mirror...

I've wasted TOO MUCH precious time...trying to preempt the unknowns of the future...

The reality is Beloveds....

We Don't Have Either...

I have nothing of yesterday but a memory and I will have nothing of tomorrow but a wish or wonder...

What I DO have...is RIGHT NOW...I have this moment that I'm in...on this date...at this time...for this purpose...

Today is the most beautiful realm of existence I got!

Today allows me to bathe myself in the wisdom lessons...to create a BEAUTIFUL current event process.

Today gives me the opportunity to generate a better SENSE of Self...

Today offers me an chance to get things right...

What do you mean by "Right" Sis. Lyphe?

I mean fix the today's "I Wish" moments of yesterday.

I mean alter the "I'll Wait' moments for tomorrow.

Today grants the gift of RIGHT NOW...

Why wish when I can actualize

Why wait when I have today

*Honest Zone*

This blog is an actualization of growing into "The Present Gift" of my Lyphe.

It took 7 years to complete my first poetry anthology from start to finish...

Perhaps...if I'd given more time to "Lyphe in Words, Vol.1"...in the NOW realm...7 years later there would have been more in motion...

BUT NOW...

I am here...and the dedication I give to this blog...is the dedication I give to the Universe, to myself and to mankind...

Being in the NOW is my Gift to the Present from the Gift of the Present...

Live and LOVE in the NOW Dear Ones...

We only have this moment.

I love you. I want you to LOVE you MOST.

Be a Blessing

LOVE & Light Beautiful Ones,

Often...I am in a position where the Universal Energy cares for me...way way way Beyond my level of imagination or expectation...

The Universe provides EVERYthing that I need...often through the hearts and hands of human beings...

*Honest Zone*

NOTHING about my Lyphe is of an island existence...I've been raised by...taught...groomed...LOVED...by "The Village"...

My village has ALWAYS taken care of me...guarded my Lyphe... as well as the lives of my Seeds/Branches...

This village, along with the unknowns...BLESS me continually...

When I need...even when I want (now that's Beautiful)...

The most important lesson the village taught me through giving...loving...sharing...caring...

Is that I MUST pay it forward...

Usually...when humans give from a pure place...it's not for return...but they do expect us to do the same for another...

I WISH I could give back ALL that has been given to me...yet so often, giving does not work this way...

The Universe gives abundantly and watches what we do with it...

Will we use our blessings to bless another?

Will we be selfish and forget what the Universe has done for us?

Will we find endless ways to make the "WISH" come true by touching another human being's life?

Our blessings are merely a Lesson...

The Graduate Level Lesson of Blessing is to NEVER stop finding ways to BLESS mankind...nature...as the Universe sees fit to so abundantly BLESS us.

BE a Blessing...You'll be Blessed for it...I promise.

The Power of Self

Abundant Grace Dear Hearts,

There is a sovereignty within me...

An existence that I cannot change...

A living core that I cannot ignore...

It was present at my beginning...

It will usher me during the end...

It sometimes is described as strength

Sometimes as that "something"...

The inner Providence of myself so to speak...

What it is...is my POWER...

The living internal well I draw from...

My Power is the key to reaching into the Universal Energy...

My Power is sensing...

My Power connected to the Universal Energy...rules my carnality.

My Power is driven by the elements of eternity...

When I bask in the Power of Self...

It too blesses me... It fortifies me... It grooms me to thrive in greatness...

The warrior within is my Power of Self...

She is strong and weak simultaneously...

She is brilliant as well as a learner...

She is steadfast...

She is mentally mighty... 

She is a spiritual general...

She's...A BEAST!!!

You GOT the POWER within Your Self...

Be a Mighty LOVE Light PowerHouse.

I love you. I want you to LOVE you MOST.

Question - What Drives You?...

*Honest Zone*
All of the reasons I thought I was "driven" were absolutely WRONG...

I didn't realize I was looking at this question upside down...

What Drives You?...was the question
My answers were...my children...my 9-5 work...my ancestors, etc.

All of which were the wrong answer.
I was not driven BY these answers...I'm driven FOR these answers.

The What Drives Me introspect...is internal exercise...if I exclude myself from the exercise...all of the mental work has been in vain.

What Drives Me had to become personal...so that the work became Universal.

I am Driven by my LOVE energy
I am Driven by my LIGHT energy
I am Driven by never giving up on myself ...no matter how difficult things get
I am Driven by the belief I have in my potential to do and become anything I put my genius mind to
I am Driven by honesty and justice
I am Driven by compassion and a belief in second chances
I am Driven by the reality that I am a small thing in this Universal tapestry
I am Driven by humility
I am Driven by common sense
I am Driven by prayer and meditation
I am Driven by remaining strong...even in my weaknesses

ALL that Drives me...are the BYs
and anyone...everyone...I encounter, impact, engage with are the FORs

I had to readjust my perspectives into proper reality placement so that my DRIVE had a living, breathing...reason.

My Drive then gained quality and actual purpose.
I'm Driven each day so that I can help another become...
Helping another become will not be attributed to my talk...but my walk...and my "walk" MUST have DRIVE...

What Drives You Beloved?
In what direction is your current Drive (if any at all) taking you?
Is there purpose to your Drive?
Is there passion within your Drive?
Or is your Drive in neutral?

Get Into the Race Dear Ones and DRIVE.

I love you. I want you to LOVE you MOST.

I Accept It...

Beloved Ones,

Today 

(because it is all I have...)

I ACCEPT It...

I accept being a brilliant reflection of the Universal Spirit.

I accept that I am unlike anyone else and it makes me happy!

I accept the LOVE & Light Energies that are being sent my way.

I accept the support of my village, my team, and the unknown...

I accept my self reflection as it is...today I'm the most beautiful me to date...

I accept that although my tests and trials have not stopped...neither have I...

I accept the wisdom I've gained through my Lyphe lessons.

I accept the blessings and gifts that have been bestowed upon me...especially the undeserved ones...

I accept that things aren't all about me...therefore giving myself to the universe for a positive use in the lives of others.

I accept the Greatness of the Ey3 Am factor within...

Within acceptance...I've opened myself up to...more bounty and beauty.

You are Wonderful...ACCEPT IT!

I LOVE You...I want you to love you MORE.

The Art of Gratitude

My SPIRIT Honors Your SPIRIT Beautiful One.

One thing I've never had difficulty with is saying Thank You. It started as a major percentage of the "manners" clause!

Please

Thank You

Yes Ma'am

No Sir

As time gifted wisdom...I came to FEEL every Thank You I put out. 

When I meant it...When I didn't...When it was received...When it was rejected...

Living and learning have always been the Super Opponents of life. They have a way of knocking you clean out of the ring sometimes.

So as pain, and test, and trial, and fear, and joy, and sorrow, and happiness, and beauty, and love, and heartache...(I could go on forever)...took form and shape within my Lyphe...I learned the Art of Gratitude on a deeper level...

I learned how to...through every situation or phase of Lyphe...say Thank You.

Thank You Universal Energy

Thank You for Love and Light

Thank You for health and strength

Thank You for peace of mind

Thank You for rescuing me from hurt and harm

Thank You for my loved ones

Thank You for my tests and trials

Thank You for the movement of my limbs

Thank You...Thank You...Thank You...Thank You

Each opportunity I take to give thanks and gratitude...it ushers me into a realm that I could get lost in...it makes me smile...it keeps me grounded...it helps ease the pressure I'm under at that time...

What's most beautiful about The Art of Gratitude...

the energy my gratitude gives back...it becomes apart of the inner conversation and yields entrance into the Love and Light Energy zone.

When we are thankful...The Universe blesses us with saturated doses of Love and Light..

Now if THAT's not beauty...I don't know what is...

Thank You for the opportunity to share my brand of Love and Light Energy.

You are my blessing. I am Grateful.
