Chapter One…
“Ah, Dear Reader! You are here! Thank you for joining me on this journey to become a better person. I must admit that I am extremely excited about our adventure. Even though this experience is of a singular nature, it is comforting to know that there are others who are also ‘here’ in this moment participating in the process. You are not alone, Dear Reader. We are not alone!
Perhaps, the most difficult moment of this journey is the first step. It takes courage to make such a commitment…a vow to devote time and energy to delve into the mystery of Self. Not to worry, Dear Friend, you are perfectly capable of managing this task. After all, you are not alone.
Just take a deep breath and be with the moment. You are here for a reason. You are here to create a better You! The chance of a lifetime has come your way, and you deserve this opportunity to experience self-exploration. You and I, and countless others around the planet are all embarking upon an adventure at the same time. We are so fortunate. Together, we are all seeking self-knowledge, self-expansion, and self-empowerment. Each of us is seeking a better “me!”
We are worthy of this opportunity. YOU are worthy of this opportunity, Dear Reader. Yes! Accept this reality! YOU are worthy of this opportunity. For the sake of Self, Others, and the More with whom you co-exist, you are wise to pursue this remarkable invitation to become the person you are truly meant to be.
Take a brief moment, and breathe this reality into your innermost being. You demonstrate courage by opening this book and engaging with the first chapter. You reveal wisdom by entertaining the idea to seek a better you.
You have only spent a few minutes of your time and already you are exhibiting the goodness within and the potential that lies ahead. Dear Reader, trust what is happening. Trust your Self! The time has come for all of us to face the reality that humankind is in need of an adjustment. Each of us must participate in this transition in our own unique way. The more who participate, the more quickly changes will transpire.
Access your wisdom again Dear Reader and choose to participate in this Project of Change. If you and I, and countless others, actively and wisely choose to become the people we are intended to be, profound changes will occur across the Earth. We will all benefit from this commitment. As said before, do not worry. We are all capable of managing this task.
So, Dear Readers, let us move forward together!
…Chapter Two…
Welcome, to the first step!
Take a deep breath…
Enjoy several more deep breaths if you like…
Allow a moment of silence to overtake you…
Sit quietly…
Enjoy the silence…
Do not rush the moment of silence…
Embrace the Silence…
~ B r e a t h e ~
Oh, Dear Friend, accept the silence as the gift it truly is, for the silence is your gateway to profound and exquisite change. For those of you who frequently visit the silence, you are aware of the importance of this simple exercise. You can attest to its many benefits, and most likely, you can also elaborate upon its challenges. Simply stated, the art of accessing the silence is definitely worthy of your attention.
In a world that is extremely busy and filled with endless distractions, choosing an alternative that quiets the chaos is a decision founded in wisdom and ancient remembrance. At some level of awareness, we know that life is more than the noise and commotion that usurps our attention. We know this, and still, the pandemonium is compelling and addictive. Turning one’s back on the outside hullabaloo and the inside turmoil is not easy. Unfortunately, this is a reality that we simply must accept, and each of us must also accept that this is not a time to degrade one’s self for succumbing to a situation that is pervasive. You are not alone in this misguided behavior. In truth, it is a worldwide crisis.
Obviously, it is not comforting to know that people all over the planet are experiencing these situational disruptions. However, it is fascinating to step back and realize that we, you and I, are capable of facing our issues and making necessary changes that will actually enhance our levels of peacefulness both internally and externally. Indeed these changes are possible, Dear Readers! A few gentle suggestions are provided that hopefully will assist your endeavors. Please expand and personalize this list of goals as your journey progresses.
Improve your focus.
Increase your awareness of your state of mind.
Release your endless mind chatter.
Create a peaceful state.
Gain clarity about your purpose, your reason for being.
Open pathways to change that will enable you to become
the better person that you desire to be.
Seeking A Better Me! is a book that opens doors, creates new pathways, and aids you in discovering who your ‘Better Me’ may actually be. Think about this, Dear Reader. What does a ‘Better Me’ mean to you? What does your ‘Better Me’ look like? How does your ‘Better Me” express her or his Self? How does your ‘Better Me’ impact those around you? What type of outreach will your ‘Better Me’ have? Will your ‘Better Me’ have a positive influence on those near to you, and perhaps, to the world at large as well? Will your ‘Better Me’ actually improve the conditions of humankind and the health of planet Earth?
Ponder these questions, Dear Friends, and generate more questions. Record your newfound questions for future visits. These questions are like gem stones that will enhance your imagination, which in turn will expand your possibilities. Explore your options to the fullest, and as you do so, remember your potential is unlimited.
