Light My Fire
December 20, 2014
On Venice Beach a few decades ago, a young idealistic, singer song writer with the rock group, The Doors along with band member Robby Krieger were inspired by the environment of the waves, warm air, palm trees, girls, and the sense of free spirit to write a song that reflected their energy of youthful excitement. We all carry memories of yesteryear both good and bad. Taking a cue from the Doors name, we each have been through many ‘doors’ and have more doors to go through. Doors that cause relentless pain and negativity need you to light your fire of positivity within, or it can be one to cause you to ‘wallow in the mire’ endlessly.
Life is an ‘open mike’ that you are always on stage for. Whatever you put out goes out even if it’s to try to hide on stage. You were born to live, love, and experience whatever life brings as props and challenges. Being the assassin of an ‘once in millions of years opportunity to evolve’ is to kill the blessings you were given. The time to hesitate is through, or life and love become a funeral pyre. It’s time to get higher setting the world on the fire of consciousness.
Where do you go from here? Open up the darkness within, and let go of being attached to the cold thoughts and memories that turn your life to dust. Standing still, replaying old tapes in the mind and emotions will always get the same result that will impede lighting the heart and mind to the fire of brightness. It’s past the time of denial of who you really are void of the blessings that are your birthright.
Into this world you’ve been born, for what only you can ride the storms of challenges to be the light to yourself, love and the world. You must understand that all you have is time and the air you breath. There are no replays, only time to throw out the storms of your demise from the being of consciousness that awaits your seeing. It’s the right thing to do to have a good time, but be on the road to the stars, and not the ‘road to hell’ that awaits those who while away their precious time.
Freedom is your road through life’s twists and turns as you fill your soul with life’s ecstasies. The light you fire within will be the light that fires the darkness in others. Once you can set light to the whole dark forest where you have lost the love you seek, you will walk the highways of blessings. Time is slippin’ away, and you are only here for a day. The journey can be long, but the end comes fast. Time to light your way and enjoy!
