Simply Beautiful

Although there are many aspects of myself that I am always in the process of improving upon, there also exists within me the contrasts of such which allow me to see life in all it’s glory as………

Simply Beautiful…

I never owned up to this side of myself and never gave myself permission to express this side of me for fear of the rejection that might have followed in revealing myself completely and fully as who I am….

Simply Beautiful….

I have always had the capacity to look within myself and to look within others to not be dismayed by the outer circumstances of appearances or disguises that we tend to masquerade in throughout the course of our life.

Who I am.
Who you are.
Who we are.

Are all part of the same….just one strand of existence in the entire cosmic tapestry we all weave together through the course of our existence and of which we call life.

Assets.
Defects of character.
The good, bad and the ugly.

Every shard of pain.
Every burst of joy.
Every crackle of laughter.
Every moment of kindness.

All the contrasting forces of life…the emotions that we carry are only fragmented pieces of the picture puzzle of life that come together in the grand scheme of the infinite universal timing of our lives.

I like so many other people in this lifetime have spent numerous amounts of mental energy looking for that particular “something” to give this life any meaning.

Happiness…Joy…Peace…Simply Something Beautiful.

I looked to men.
I looked to jobs.
I looked to different living situations.
I looked to goals.

I looked to discover this “something” in every person, place, thing, circumstance, idea and situation….thinking that if I could just harness this intangible force in something outside of who I was, then in someway, shape or form I could posses this feeling.

But this “something” could not be found in a particular circumstantial label I would yield my personal power to. Anything outside myself is something that is fleeting and at most only as as static as the ideas and beliefs that formulate the irrational idea that inner contentment exists as anything tangible outside myself.

No matter how hard I have tried I never had the power to label anything in particular as the force that was the end all source of this aspect of life.

I couldn’t go to the store and buy it.
I couldn’t receive it as a gift.
I couldn’t go and scoop it out of the sky at night.
I couldn’t pull it out of someone else.

I could never find it outside of myself…because it only exists within myself.

I see it in the daily perspective of my life….

A leaf turning and twisting in the wind.
Shafts of sunlight streaming down from above.
The whisper of the wind dancing through the trees.

The love I feel for myself, for you, for us all as I acknowledge we are all one of the same and we are all….

Simply Beautiful.

  2. I love this post Morgan. You have such a God given talent. I’m sure he is saying the same about you, ‘Simply Beautiful’.

    You said, ‘I could never find it outside of myself…because it only exists within myself.’ There are so many questions that people ask, but they only need to look within.

    We are one if we have love within us.

    Rolando…..I’m so glad you decided to come back :) Thank you so much for your comments they always reinforce what I don’t write and what I also want to write…thanks for filling in the blanks!

  3. This is so lovely and very true. I was thinking this morning, if we have so many enlightened people on the planet, why can’t we nudge the shift in consciousness? (Looking for an answer externally). Then I was listening to the quiet, no birds this morning until I hear one sound..a quick trill, and there he is, one bird sitting in a tree and it brought me to the thought, it can only begin within you. Then I pop in with a cup of coffee and stop here and fully read your post!

    Funny how life works like that :) My own experience has allowed me to come to the understanding that the world is EXACTLY the way is should be…it offers each and every one of us the opportunity to decide who and what we want to be and do based upon the observations we may see in the contrasts of others as well as circumstances and situations…..glad to have met another wandering spirit on this path of life! :)

  4. Hello! :)

    I followed you here from Surface Earth’s place and all I can say is - we must be from the same “Tribe”! This post resonates with me so much, on so many different levels. Perhaps if you are interested and have the time, you might look at some of my own posts. In recent weeks, especially, I am focused on Loving Myself into wholeness.

    Namaste and great writing!

    And Namaste back to you my new found friend…I will be checking you out in a moment…and thanks for your support!

  5. I’m sitting here in front of my computer waiting for my grandchild to be born. My son-in-law’s got his computer and a web cam with him, so I will be able to see the baby when it’s born. My daughter is on the other side of the world and yet I was able to “visit” her at the hospital through the web cam. You’re post describes really well what I feel right now. It’s not that long ago I gave birth to her and now she is about to give birth to new life. In a way my job is done and hers starts.

    We don’t have to give birth to find the beauty inside of us, it is there, whatever we decide to do in life. You are so right when you say it is something we can’t find from outside ourselves. We have to find it from within. There has been so many days in my life when I’ve been tired of being a single mom, so many days I’ve wished I would have had someone to share the problems with, but you know what, it’s happiness and the beauty we have inside we need to share. Problems can be dealt with alone, happiness needs to be shared…

    Thank you so much for sharing your amazing moment with us Susie! And btw Congrats Grandma. the biggest search in life is the one that is so often overlooked…the search for inner peace, love and joy that only comes from within!
