I am that I am.
You most likely have heard this saying. To most people this saying represents a feeling that a person exists just because they exist. I am because I am, would be another way to say and look at it.
I believe that , yes , existence because you exist is truth and that it can lead to a greater level of surrender in your life however it is really not the most beneficial way to interpret the “I am that I am” statement.
Read the statement, following again, but this time instead of emphasizing the “I am” parts, put the emphasis on the word “that”.
I am THAT I am.
Could you tell the difference? When thought of this way it opens all new meaning to the phrase. It says that your life is full of free will and choice. It says that you have the power of creation!
I am THAT “I am” over there. You get to choose the “I am” you live. Each and every moment you can reset or renew the ideals and beliefs you live by. You can choose high lofty ideals or you can choose low valueless ideals. You set the “I am” value.
I am THAT I am.
Personally I tend to reach to the stars and insert the highest values possible. I look to individuals like Jesus, Buddha and Gandhi, among many others, to help shape my images of the perfect ideal. Everyday I refine my “I am”
You see, I continually strive in every moment to better myself, to uncover and learn something more, to be immersed in higher truth, to realize the secret of the universe, to reach my unchanging and eternal true self.
Now your ideals may be different from mine and that is perfectly fine. It is your own personal free will and freedom of choice that gives each and every one of us our own unique story and journey.
My point is this: Do you know the “I am” you are striving for?
Take a moment now to think about the characteristics and ideals of the “I am” you have chosen that is currently influencing your life( who are you?).
Write down the ideals you would like to have inserted into your life(who do you want to be?).
If you find a difference, insert them in your life and start living them!
God bless,
Gavin
P.S - Depending on where you are in your journey, realize that your beliefs and ideals can grow and change as you grow and change, so keep them in mind on a daily basis and don’t be afraid of what other people may think. They are free to make their own choices.

Choice!
Choice!
It is our most precious freedom.
Are you cherishing it or are you wasting it?
Do you even know what the choices are?
Everyday you make choices. Whether you are aware of them or not! Take a moment to set the intent to staying aware of your choices throughout the day. This is one way you will start having some of the outcomes you desire. Most people cannot get out of a rut because they are not aware they are making bad personal choices or small errors in judgment. They keep doing the same things, thinking the same thoughts and running their life on autopilot with bad coordinates and programs.
Does that sound sensible to you?
If you do not like something, change it! But don’t change it only out there, change it within you! That is where the root cause is!
You have the power, you have the ability, you have the will power, you have the intelligence, you have everything you need already to start this change and renewal process.
My thought, personally, is to bring all choices under one general category. This makes the choices easier to understand and decide upon when you are confronted by them.
My category looks like this:
SPIRIT or FLESH
HIGHER DIVINE SELF or LOWER EGO SELF
TRUE SELF or FALSE SELF
EMPOWERMENT or DISEMPOWERMENT
LOVE or FEAR
LIFE or DEATH
LIGHT or DARK
TRUTH or ILLUSION
Now please realize that I have given about 8 comparisons, but really they all say the same thing.
I believe that life is about choosing between the aspects or ideals listed above. No matter which specific saying you may resonate towards. Do you know which one you are choosing with all your decisions?
Do you think your choosing life but still have actions that say exactly the opposite?
Excessive actions can kill the body, mind and spirit. Actions like smoking, alcohol consumption, overeating, poor food choices and habits (sugars, processed foods, meat), gambling, pornography, disempowered relationships. Overall, you know the actions I am talking about. These are clear signs that you may be making poor errors in judgment.
If you are not honoring and respecting your body then somewhere in your mind you have thoughts, beliefs and programs that are self sabotaging you. You need to find them and start to change them. Most likely they are issues dealing with self esteem, self worth and self love.
If you thought you were worthy and truly loved yourself why would you knowingly be trying to kill yourself?
Think about it and think about the choices you are making and why you are making them.
Keeping a spiritual focus and laying a strong spiritual foundation will always be the key.
Until next time
