Living as One, in the Now

Greetings to all who visit here.
I just completed the 11th eNewsletter, Magdalena Messages, that I produce with my sister, Joy and my beloved, Angelina. The theme this time is living as One in the Now, and what better subject to post upon than that?
The concept of living as One is as large a concept as One may contemplate. In essence, that means that All That Is must fit within the One. All the universes, all of the galaxies, all of the Black Holes, and all of us...in one unitary reality. Then, if that were not enough, we have to do it all NOW. We may not string it out over hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades, centuries, millenia, lifetimes...it is all NOW, in this instant that lasts only an instant. If you don't get all of it, all ONE of IT, in this instant, where will it go? It seems there is no place for the leftovers of Space and Time, so we just have to deal with what is Here and Now. So, the stepping stone of realizing this truth is to not "try" to understand it or figure it out, or explain it to yourself or others. The stepping stone is to imagine that this moment is the only one there is and all that is required for happiness is present in this moment. This, of course, has been the message of Masters forever, and it has not changed. The Key to happiness is to enjoy (be in joy) whatever arises, and share that happiness with whomever or whatever you encounter. Sadness, disappointment, lack or worse are inevitable in the world of form; and, happiness is the destination to which we all arrive as soon as we "get" that we never left. There are millions of stories of people who have faced unimaginable odds and been in the most dreadful situations, yet have transcended them to become our guides for whatever we yearn to become. Take the time to identify those souls, real or imagined, who personify the realization of your dreams, and allow them to guide you, one step at a time, from here and now to here and now. Live as ONE, in the NOW.
Peace,

ONENESS-The Only Thread There Is

As I have been reflecting of what it is I want to write about and explore here, and elsewhere, it is apparent that there is only one theme, one thread, and that is ONENESS. All issues in my life are related to, and intimately entwined with, the recognition of our ONENESS. I have a strong interest in politics, social interaction and spirituality. What I notice in each of these areas is that until I can recognize and embrace that we are ONE, there is no way to authentically move forward in my life and with my relationships. No matter how far afield these posts may venture, from time to time, they will always return to The Only Thread There Is-TOTTI. It is interesting to me that this Acronym, TOTTI, first came to my attention as I was reading Neale Donald Walsch's recent book, What God Wants. What our very existence comes down to is the Remembering that we are ONE, extensions of God, Spirit, Nature, Universal Consciousness, Allah, Christ Consciousness or whatever other name one gives to the Source of All. No matter how we view our Purpose for living and being here, the one Truth that seems True always is that we all belong to the One and we are here to experience and express that One in this form. As this Blog expands and explores Truth, many areas for exploration and expansion will arise. I am excited about the RISK-Radical Inquiry Seeks Knowing-that is leading to greater awareness, both for myself, and for those who choose to join in the discussion.
Blessings of Peace to All,

Welcome to WonderWords

Words of Wonder flow from the Heart through the Mind. None is greater than the other, though how they are used together makes a difference in meaning and impact. Mental Action without Heart is fraught with Danger, for there is always the risk of overwhelming the object of the action. And, Heart extended without Mind has a tendency to wander away from Heart's Desire and "fail" to fulfill its design. This Blog will be about recognizing who we are...or who I am, since it is my blog...and how I can take responsibility for All of Who I Am.

This First entry is more to try out the format than to impart any Wisdom. As I grow and interact with others here and elsewhere, the opportunity to expand the presence here and inquire into the power of Words and Wonder will become grander.

Welcome, once again, to WonderWords, where Body, Mind and Spirit intersect.

Peace,

St. WonderHeart
