The Talents

by KatherineFelix on Sunday, October 24, 2010 at 10:00pm

I believe we all have
God given gifts
for me, it is writing, and painting
when I am able to lose myself
when “I am”
becomes one
with the great I AM

When there is no longer a distinction
between where my soul ends
and God’s Hand begins
a connectionis forged
and word or images flow
like water from the Source.

In these instants I am at peace
Happiness too small a word
A change in consciousness occurs
And I am what I was born....
To Be,
To Do,
To See,
To Share
It flows forth with ease….
all is right in my world.

What would the world be like,
If we all
had the ability
to live
By doing
what we love
What we were designed to do
Being in that zone
All the days of our lives?

In my childhood I was separated
as a child ripped from her mother’s breast
made to travel a “safe” and “normal” path
to ensure I would be able to “earn a living….”
and in earning this living I suffer
yearning always,
just to be me.

In the end I have learned
to encourage and support
the dreams of others
whenever I have the chance,
to counsel others to listen
to the voice inside
whispering The Way.

To steal God’s path from another
should be ranked among the most heinous sins
akin to murder…
murder of the soul
yet well meaning parents the world over
stifle the unique talents of their children
in an attempt to make them “fit in”.

Managers and people in positions of power
hold knowledge from others
in an attempt to secure their own positions
rather than enjoying the Gift
of setting people on their own course
allowing them to reach their true potential

Never realizing the real losers
are them selves,
as Karma is as real as gravity
and that what goes around comes around
and that the opposite is also true...
that in giving others possibilities
you open up more for yourself.

At the ripe old age of now,
I am finally beginning to see
That what I really want to do
Is to start to live my Dream
To fulfill the promise God had in me
With the gifts he bestowed on me

Maybe par tof those gifts
Is the ability to recognize in others
And encourage to grow
The spark put there by God
Fanning dead embers
Until they once again glow with potential.
