The last
several days, I have really been feeling the power of claiming my vision. Vision can mean many things and in this
case, it pertains to my beliefs, values, desires and dreams. Let me just say right up front that I don’t
propose or pretend that my vision is
any more valid than another…but it certainly isn’t any less – and this is the
insight that’s important.
This
movement to claim my vision seems to
be permeating many areas of my consciousness.
In fact, it’s propelling me to re-claim
some things as well. For instance…
God….Since I was very young I always had a
very close relationship with God. However, due to the beliefs of many a mainstream
religion, I got to the point that I didn’t even want to hear the word God…or Christian for that matter. I
would cringe when I heard either word.
(Sad when you think about it.)
However, I was able to keep my relationship with the One and Only by re-naming God as the
much more expansive, non-judgmental, unconditionally loving, Consciousness. It was just in the
last year that I realized that I had the right to my God. No one holds the
market on the One and Only. Now, I use the words Consciousness and God
almost interchangeably. I have re-claimed God and that feels really good. Claiming my
beliefs has also helped me accept the rights of others to their beliefs. This is part
of freedom of conscience as Thomas
Jefferson might say.
Vision…. In the same way that I have
re-claimed God, I have come to the
realization that I can re-claim my
vision. This is really about
recognizing that there’s nothing wrong
with my vision – just as there was nothing wrong with my understanding of God. I don’t have to support or buy-in to that
with which I don’t agree. I don’t have
to go to battle against it. I have the
right to my own vision. I just need to
take responsibility for it and go about being it. Right now, I am claiming… my vision…my perspective…my voice…my sense of equality…my love…my freedom…and my
opportunity! (This is so empowering!)
Me….I am taking this opportunity to claim me as well. I like
me. In fact, I love me. I am perfectly me. There is no other me. I am the one and only me. I am happy being me. J
Claiming the
right to my vision – and all that
includes – seems to be part of the process on the way to living from
wholeness. Making the commitment to acknowledge my vision…be my vision…stand in my vision…and feel
my vision…seems like a powerful step in the transformation of my experience and
my reality.
Much love,
