If time wasn’t an illusion, I would tell you that ‘time is running out,’ and ask you ‘what are you waiting for?’ I am not speaking about end of the world time, but the time of your life; the time of being in this body. Time is precious and none of us know when our time is up, but why hold off on doing and being what makes you happy?
If you take the time to look at some of the top regrets that people have on their death bed you would see things like…
1. I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
2. I wish I didn’t work so hard.
3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.

The top 5 regrets happen because we think we have time, so a choice is made to wait, and the other times it happens because of our conditionings (what we have been taught). Either way, it still boils down to choice. I know that it appears to be difficult to go against our conditionings, but I find that it is harder to choose to fight against our natural states.
What is it going to take to wake up? What is it going to take realize what is important? Is it going to be the proverbial, cosmic sledgehammer upside the head? Part of me wants to say ‘I hope that is not the case,’ but the other part of me celebrates whatever it takes to wake us up as a good thing.
Yesterday, I wrote about people defending their limitations. Yes, it is natural in relation to how the mind works, but I always come back to one point: to remind you that you are not the mind. The mind is something to use (to make choices with and go after them) however, until there is some self awareness happening, the mind will use you!
Please stop wasting precious time and the moment to begin is NOW (for it is the only moment you have)! It really doesn’t matter where you start, how big the start is, simply begin to be true to your authentic you. Yes, you may have to peel back some of the ‘conditioned you’ to get to the ‘authentic you,’ but it is so worth it! Some of your relationships may change, jobs may change, friendships may change, but change is part of nature and a part of you. What are you afraid of? I challenge each and every one of you to look that beast in the eye (the one that you give power to that holds you back), and let it know that you have the grace of God on your side. God doesn’t want to see you miserable in this lifetime and anyone who preaches to you that you have to suffer to receive the payoff; BULLSHIT!
There is a bumper sticker that says “You never find a well-behaved woman making history” and I think that applies to everyone. I say, ‘question authority, rock the boat, dream and dream big!’ Live in your Godliness, live in the NOW, and keep responding to life!
