There comes a time in life when things seem to shift from what you
thought or knew was important to actually what is. How in the world from birth
does this perception change? Well for
one as a child we come into this world and our excitement and exuberance is
focused on just being. We allow ourselves to act silly and do whatever we want
without thinking twice. I remember those
days and I really do miss them alot. You
really didn’t have to sit and think if you were going to do it you did it with
no looking back.
So when did the restrictions and the belonging come into play?
One word that I can think of is SOCIETY!
As a child I was told before crossing the street I had to look both ways just in case a vehicle was coming. I literally would as we all were perched on the curb turning our heads to the left and right determining if we were going to cross or not. Ok I got it and got good at it too in regards to vehicles but what about the things in life that could run you over? What about unexpected, the unknown, the things that could creep up on you and hit you out of nowhere?
At this time in my life that is what I would have hoped to have
learned about but as in all things there is a reason why. If you know ahead of time then your action or
reaction would not be organic. It would
be pre-empted and scripted and for me that is not how life is supposed to
be. Hey, I am no dummy once you touch a
hot stove you know not to put your hand near it again right? So you find a way to adjust and maybe find a
towel or an actual potholder to assist you in what you wanted to do. You altered your plan, you opened your mind
and you created a new way.
It is at those times that I look back and smile and say you know
Dawn you didn’t give up you opened your mind and you shifted your energy in a
new direction. Those are the lessons
that I wish was taught in school a “Life Class” how not to use the word
CAN’T. That word is something when I was
a child I heard so much “oh Dawn you can’t do, become, or try”! And just in case you are wondering this was not
at home but at school! Well my mind is
telling me I can so who’s with me. But
the WORLD or SOCIETY is telling me hmmm… you can’t. I can only laugh because for a very tall
skinny little girl my mind was made up and I knew I could! And guess what it may not have been in the
material world but in my mind I was that archeologist and I went on those digs
to discover the many treasures of the world.
You know what that is called IMAGINATION!!! My Imagination was and still is one of my best
friends! It kept me entertained and
never told me I couldn’t do anything. It
was always there for me to make a way…always!
So as I celebrate another year of life I will remember the good
times and the not so good times. I will
always be thankful to the higher power for my existence. I will continue to be grateful to the
universe for listening to me while gazing at the starts telling you how my life
will be. Just recently I have found out
the power of two of the coolest words…I AM!
You can put anything behind it and it will begin to shape your world believe me I know. Use it as if you are playing a game to begin to ignite the spark of creativity and life inside of your being. Let your inner child take over and go wacky with the notion of these two words!

I AM… DAWN
Nowhere on my list is there the word can’t…just think about
it and relish in the positivity and the electricity in the deliciousness of
life. From what I am told there are no
restrictions in my ability to be. I came
into this world being and knowing that I have this deep feeling of I was going
to be “famous”! But now when I
think about it that wasn’t the right word but who knew I was a child back
then. The word that I will use right now
is “VIABLE” (able to be done or worth doing) ~ Thanks Encarta Dictionary
(wink another good friend of mine)!
Because with that I know that I am focusing on being viable to the
world. All of my actions and words are
going to worthwhile. I will no longer
allow my being to be saturated by negativity (words, people or actions). Or the nonsense of someone telling me that I
can’t do something ever again… My first phase of life at times seemed like I
was feeling my way around as if I had on a blindfold. And as I began to tune into to whom “I Am”
I began to become brave and peak from under the blindfold. The first time of
course I had such a nervous feeling that would give me goose bumps. Then as I began to build up my strength it
got easier lifting it for longer period of times. But what was the most challenging was
actually me deciding that I no longer needed the blindfold to shield me from the
who, what, when and where’s of the world. As I gained strength in my eyes that were once
weak are now refreshed and refocused. It
gave me a new perspective a new way of seeing and doing. Believe me it wasn’t that easy but who said
it needed to be.
I had a friend (JU) ask me at this time in my life would I rather
have gone through the hard times when I was younger as in the first ½ of life
or now as I begin my second phase of life…hmmm?
Deep question and I never really thought about it that way BUT...My
answer to him was in the first ½ of life so that now I can see with my eyes and
not viewing it from others perceptions of what they wanted me to be or be
influenced by!
What would your
answer be?
When you think about how vast life is we are energy and energy is a
power how we can not feel the energy of life.
I can’t tell
you how to feel or be but what I can give you is the truth on Dawn…
At this time in my life I have grown to appreciate who Dawn is and
why I was named Dawn…As in the Sunrises every day, you will always see the Dawn
in the morning and she will always set at night. The Sun is a form of light, the warmth on
your skin on a hot summer’s day… It
appears with such brilliance as it rises above to shine its light on the
world!
WOW that’s me and
that is sooooooo amazing!
Another good friend (Hi Peri) told me to OWN IT to
know who I am and walk in that light! To
be Dawn with all of the essence that beholds the sun! I said ok I can do that but OMG did I not
realize just what it was to own Dawn…Man she is filled with knowledge that is
given from above. You have a lot who are
not receptive to the words but you have some that are light filled that
embraces her. I know I am the spirit within and I see how it is to be. In no way am I saying that I am better than
anyone as we are all unique. But, the
uniqueness of being Dawn is that she has the coolest inner child, spirit guides
and guardian angels that are with her everywhere she goes. That is not a hypothetical that is a fact and
if you believe you know that you have a team as well.
So all your life you had a desire….dream…a vision
So when does the magic begin
When do you step out on that invisible ledge and take the leap
When do you say Yes to yourself
When do you believe
Do you keep giving excuses
Does your dream have a timestamp
When will it expire
When will you begin to implement
Hmmm….I know maybe tomorrow
The time isn’t right
I have too much to do
So and so has done it before
We have too many original people in the world
Hmmm…I really don’t have time
Well I have said that as well ~ all of the above. You think I just share these things with you
as an experiment? NO all of this comes
from above and it is channeled through me so who do you think would have experience
this HELLO ~ Dawn
Which leads to the Truth ~ as in living your truth? I have been chosen and this is my purpose. It is my passion that drives me in the
silence of the night. The words that
dance around in my head when put onto paper are a sheer Symphony of Life. The sweet sounds of a whisper that gently caresses your mind and allows your being to let go and feel the energy from above. To say out loud that I am here, this is your purpose and this is your gift back to the world.
I will tell you at first the chatter was so strong I had no idea and it was constant. But once I was given instructions to silence the spirit and listen not just with my ears but my entire being I was brought into the light of life.
A Luminance of a Dawn!
(Sounds like a cool title for a blog ~ giggle, giggle, giggle)
