Debbie Ford Says, “You are on a soulful path that asks you to step into the greatest version of yourself. It is a sacred gift to shine your brightest light, not just in your moments of glory, but each day. To step into the enormity of what’s possible for your life and to live in the expansiveness of your future, you will need to step out of the smallness of your individual self and into the vastness of the collective whole by evoking the next agent of change called transcendence.
Inside of your individual self, your human “I,” you will remain in the illusion that you are separate from the whole, acting on your own accord. You will more than likely sabotage any greatness that you do express because the deep feelings of unworthiness that arise as a result of denying your divinity will cause you to act out in ways that you never intended. You will hear the noisy chatter of separation and limitation.
But when you transcend the “I” and step into the “we” of the collective whole, you are able to be present to the fact that you are a molecule of the greatest power that exists and that you are here to deliver a divine gift to the world. You become willing to be used by a power greater than yourself—not to just serve yourself but to inspire and ignite a light inside of each soul who is touched by your gifts, kindness and essence. Connected to the collective heart, you can be certain in every cell of your being that you are never alone and you will experience the grace, guidance and ease that comes when you are one with all there is.” (21 Day Consciousness Cleanse at www.oprah.com)
I just can’t say it better than she does, so I bring her quotes to my blog to share in the inspiratin that she gave me.
She talkes about “being one” with all that is and that is a powerful phrase that has my attention these days. It can also be described as Unity,but I used to always think of unity in the external sense of, you know, not being divided.
But when you consider the unity of mind, body, and soul in the context of Divine Oneness a new awareness opens up that brings such peace and beauty.

This is what I wrote on Oprah’s website today in answer to the question: what is your hope for yourself for the future?
My hope for myself in the future is that my experiences in the future continue to reflect the inner peace that I experience each day. My dream is to be a writer, motivational speaker, and educator who shows by example and with inspiration that all obstacles can be overcome, any dream can come true and that we can achieve the awareness of self-fulfillment by knowing our True Selves, by knowing what makes us unique, and by using these qualities in service of humanity. That is my hope for the future.
Now I ask you — what is your hope yourself in for the future?
