The Lamplighter

… ...walking down the streets, he carried a roaring torch, stopping at each lamp post he reached up high, lighting them one by one. I watched until he disappeared from sight, leaving a blazing trail that lit the way for all who followed….

There is darkness, stress, trial and tribulation all around us. It is easy, so very easy to get sucked into this stressful, tight, restrictive world. A world where there is not enough money, not enough food, not enough laughter, joy or love to go around…. And this, my friends, is the cause of so much of the stress in our life, this false idea of ‘not enough’.
So take a deep breath, I’m about ready to knock your socks off…. This idea, this belief so many in our world buy into of ‘not enough’, is just an illusion. There is enough, more than enough and the possibilities in our life are endless and the deep resonance in our soul cries out to experience these endless possibilities. Our minds, our fears and our judgments about ourselves hold us back.
So STOP.
Breathe.
Open your eyes and see the light. Look up and see this trail of fire blazing bright from the lamplighters who have gone before us, lighting our way on this path. Giving us the confidence we need to live our purpose, to follow our dreams.
Are you scared? Do you not know how to get started? Join me on Wednesday for a short introductory lecture on how to take the first steps in becoming less stressed and more empowered in your life. To walk and live like this lamplighter, lighting the fires of freedom, inspiration, passion and joy in the hearts of every person you meet.
Leave a blazing trail behind you for others to follow.

Day 1

There is something coming.
Something big.
Do you feel it?

Or are you so busy trying to make end's meat, covering your ass, working 14 hours a day, consumed with responcibilities, debt, family, work, not to mention friends, that your head spins and you just can't take any more and all you want to is escape!
This is a prime example of how stress has totally consumed our lives. From the moment we wake, to the moment we are laying down trying to go to sleep, stress batters us from all directions. If it is not our job, or other physical stressors (family, responcibility), it is emotional, mental or even spiritual.

Traumatic events in our lives can cause huge amounts of stress that lingers for years and years effecting the very quality (and sometimes quantity) of our life. And most of the time the 'experts' say... "It just takes time."

What if there was a better way? What if there was a way to not only reduce stress, but also gain perspective, gain purpose and gain more fulfillment and happiness in our lives. Enjoying every moment.

So, i have taken this 30 day blog challenge and will hopefully open for you some ideas, some ways of coping or some real life examples of how to deal with this bombardment of energy we feel in our lives every day, AND how to have a life with more purpose, more happiness and more joy!
Impossible?
Nope - I've got 30 days. ;-)

Because something is coming, I can feel it. It is something big, a new way of life, a new way of doing things or perhaps just a new perspective on the world within man's consciousness.
And quite frankly, I'm excited.
