Mountain Spring Fresh (the benefits after the drink)

I thought to put in a picture of drinking fresh water but I think you get the picture without me putting it in right? hee hee


Tonight's class was simply amazing. What class? The one that happens every single friday at 8:30 pm. Where? Where ever you are so just call 712.775.7100 access code 653456#

I don't really know how to write about tonight although I'm writing a blog! How can I express the last step in the 5 steps in the Thirst Series. Not often when your in a class do you actually experience the teaching of the class right in the class and oh boy did that happen tonight for us all. See, walking inward is something that we each do and then share what we see while going into ourselves. That transparency makes and enables all of us to transform together leaving no one behind. I know you say you still haven't told me what it was about?!? Okay enough stalling...

Putting myself and listeners between Solomon and James' words provided direction for our journey. The question posed was
Doth a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter?
Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh. Solomon gives the walls for the questions that form our foundation--The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

So what does fresh really mean? Do you not realize you can still have fresh even if its the same thing? For example just be/ you've eaten bread before does it mean the next time you buy it it won't be fresh? You've just never tasted that loaf before so you've not met it's acquaintance. Fresh is newly met, green, inexperienced, vigor, and youthful. It's not preserved by freezing, canning, pickling, salting, drying, etc...Being in the moment is a powerful willful act. It allows you to embrace all that you have room for from the source that is giving it. You pick up the speed of it from the one supplying it. Some things can actually be done w/out thought. Out of your mind if you will. This is faith. Out of your mind meaning above and beyond you but bearing witness to the greater you. That which enables you to live what you see. That which calls you to the question of self. You are not living until you begin to question yourself after seeing something bigger than you. Your crossroad is your rite of passage. Will you stay or go? You can't do both NOT YOU! Stable walking in the mountains require that you leave the meandering for the leveled places there w/ the leveled places. The leaner you are the easier it is to live in high altitudes. Lean not just in physical size but in what you carry on your back. How many know that slim people carry a lot of weight too :)

The fountain is what holds our resevoir of freshness. It is from this place you pull to continue developing not an outside source for approval or denial. Your fountain's level is your thumbs up or down. How filled or low it is should be your gage for continuing or going back in for reviving. Not what your friends say or think. Practicing the new will deactivate the old. So don't let your mind keeping mulling over what isn't happening. Go on to what works and it will cancel out many of the anti-visions your sabatourer will give you to keep you home with him or her. Well, I've got to get ready to go but a few benefits of drinking from that which is fresh is what I'd like to leave you with;
  1. You will be clear to see.
  2. You will regain your thirst for living and more readily detect counterfeit.
  3. You will realize you are worth the research!

If the above seems familiar to you but you can't quite get it feel free to contact us for coaching. We'd love to provide further tools to bring you to fruition. http://www.ultimateemergence.com/ I'll talk to you soon...712.775.7100 access code 653456# friday's @8:30 pm. www.walkinginward.com

Thirsty Series Pt 4 Tap (Mediocrity)


So then because thou art lukewarm (having or showing little ardor (great warmth of feeling; fervor; passion), zeal, or enthusiasm; indifferent: lukewarm applause), and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my
mouth.


Tap- –noun
water, obtained directly from a faucet or tap, that has not been purified, distilled, or otherwise treated.

Mediocrity- adj. of ordinary or moderate quality; neither good nor bad, barely adequate. 2. rather poor or inferior synonym. average

Are you close to the portal of abundance? If not, can you at least see it? Have you gone through the door of abundance? Many christians speak of abundance but how many actually have it...What is life and that more abundantly? Can you define it?


Now don’t get me wrong we will often have to live through plateau’s in life. All things will not be mountainous and high all of the time as in results and effects but continued average isn’t something you should settle for. Some times when your life has lost it’s luster and mediocrity has crept in unbeknown to you, some signs will be
silliness will replace joy
folly replaces pure enjoyment that has no pun intended- in other words finding happiness in finding what’s wrong. You become a nick picker and out of place catcher and not for the purpose of lovingly covering someone but for the pleasure of exposing them.
Not finishing what you start and not seeing the point in doing so. (a lot of time the root cause will be just a mere switch in emotion or mood)
bail out narratives (excuses and pseudo-reasons for dropping out)
laziness will become the doing of choice.

Plateau living is where we:
  1. Become acquainted with the true us
  2. Learn to practice tenacity and endurance
  3. learn to master life and not just subjects. Learning to live while doing what we do. Instead of doing what we do and defining our lives by it.

The question and answer period of this call was phenomenal and from it a book/journal, workshop was accepted as the next project for yours truly. I look forward to this undertaking...to hear this lesson in it's entirety go to www.walkinginward.com and order this series in CD or MP3 format.

Thirsty Series Pt 3 Salt water (over seasoned or heavy on the addictive)

Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there any taste in the white of an egg?

Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.

Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?

Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with
salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.


Salt- a crystalline compound, sodium chloride, NaCl, occurring as a mineral, a constituent of seawater, etc., and used for seasoning food, as a preservative. an element that gives liveliness, piquancy pee-kahnt , or pungency(sharply effecting the organs of taste and smell as if by a penetrating power, acutely distressing to the feelings or mind;
Anecdotes are the salt of his narrative. wit.
to introduce rich ore or other valuable matter fraudulently into (a mine, the ground, a mineral sample, etc.) to create a false impression of value.

What have you lived absent of but gave the impression it was there all the time? It's time to take your life back and harness all the energy and use it towards what you really want to be and most likely are destined to be in this world!

Additives- (noun) something that is added, as one substance to another, to alter or improve the general quality or to counteract undesirable properties: an additive that thins paint.
As it relates to food--a substance added directly to food during processing, as for preservation, coloring, or stabilization.

Points I’d like to leave you with;

  • remove but allow (after seeing what may need to be adjusted give yourself room to see what was sitting under it. For example if after dealing with nervousness there very well could be a great drive for developing your next dream or hope lying underneath. Practice letting. There are some great qualities in you so going to find other things to put in may not always be in your best interest.
  • replace but discern (take time to check it out. You slow down enough to get what should be there)
  • remember but let go (honor the memory by living now as oppose to staying with the thought and getting locked in) how can I honor my ancestors while moving forward? By developing from their pains and suffering a get up and go in all that I envision for myself.

Note- I enjoyed this class tonight. It was wonderful being with you all. Come join us http://www.walkinginward.com/ and every friday @8:30 pm 712.775.7100 access code 653456#
