the manifesto of encouragement

thank you to the wormhole of amazing blogs I dive into…. one leads me to another and another.. sometimes for hours.. swimming in the cool refreshing pool of inspiring artists and fellow “searchers“  – I find solace. Lately my focus has been finding others – who speak to my condition. I have found others and Today, thanks to Danielle, I found the following which I wanted to share…. a reminder that we are not alone – that there are ALWAYS someone thinking  about, or praying for us.(I loved some of the comments left in her posting – so I also added them…..

the manifesto of encouragement

right now:

There are Tibetan Buddhist monks in a temple in the Himalayas endlessly reciting mantras for the cessation of your suffering and for the flourishing of your happiness.

Someone you haven’t met yet is already dreaming of adoring you.

Someone is writing a book that you will read in the next two years that will change how you look at life.

Nuns in the Alps are in endless vigil, praying for the Holy Spirit to alight the hearts of all of God’s children.

A farmer is looking at his organic crops and whispering, “nourish them.”

Someone wants to kiss you, to hold you, to make tea for you. Someone is willing to lend you money, wants to know what your favourite food is, and treat you to a movie. Someone in your orbit has something immensely valuable to give you — for free.

Something is being invented this year that will change how your generation lives, communicates, heals and passes on.

The next great song is being rehearsed.

Thousands of people are in yoga classes right now intentionally sending light out from their heart chakras and wrapping it around the earth.

Millions of children are assuming that everything is amazing and will always be that way.

Someone is in profound pain, and a few months from now, they’ll be thriving like never before. They just can’t see it from where they’re at.

Someone who is craving to be partnered, to be acknowledged, to ARRIVE, will get precisely what they want — and even more. And because that gift will be so fantastical in it’s reach and sweetness, it will quite magically alter their memory of angsty longing and render it all “So worth the wait.

Someone has recently cracked open their joyous, genuine nature because they did the hard work of hauling years of oppression off of their psyche — this luminous juju is floating in the ether, and is accessible to you.

Someone just this second wished for world peace, in earnest.

Someone is fighting the fight so that you don’t have to.

Some civil servant is making sure that you get your mail, and your garbage is picked up, that the trains are running on time, and that you are generally safe. Someone is dedicating their days to protecting your civil liberties and clean drinking water.

Someone is regaining their sanity. Someone is coming back from the dead. Someone is genuinely forgiving the seemingly unforgivable. Someone is curing the incurable.

You. Me. Some. One. Now.

Someone knows you’re not broken. Even if you feel like you are. They’re remembering who you are when you forget.

someone is waiting for you to embrace vulnerability, step out of your comfort zone and bust a move with that mad talent you’re harboring inside. What you’ve got, people need.

someone just put their arms around you, from the other side, and gave you the biggest longest most tender hug of encouragement, and your heart felt it, even though your body could not.

somewhere someone is driving alone along an empty road reveling, radio blasting, head tipped back woo-hooing out the open window, and laughing heartily by the beauty of all-that-is.

someone is sitting alone, believing their world is over, not knowing yet that, tomorrow, a miracle will happen and everything will change. For the better.

someone is dying surrounded by a circle of love, having said all that was needed to be said, at peace and ready to move on to the next great adventure.

Someone is wildly yearning for a friend just like you to come along. Yearning, yearning.

Someone knows that you are exactly the parent your child needs, that you are doing your best, and that is enough.

Someone is dancing, regardless. Someone is singing, regardless. Someone is waiting you to join them.

someone is looking out to blue sky above a peaceful field thanking whatever is holy that they are alive to witness the beauty. someone is learning to nurse a newborn. a child is collecting flowers only to give them away. someone’s smile just filled the last little hole a heart had left.

Someone is holding positive, manifesting thoughts for you, when you are unable to see the forest for the trees…unable to think positively yourself.

Someone is whispering prayers into the wind…

Someone is blessing their money as they spend it, knowing it will somehow make it’s way into your hands and deliver the blessing to you.

Someone is hugging a toilet happily sick because they are preparing to bring a new life into this world.

Someone hopes they know how much you mean to them, even if they don’t know how to tell you.

Someone is having the best day of their life, and in their joy they are sending out a wish into the universe that you, too, shall have the best day of your life.

Someone has just been singing a song and somewhere in the middle, they forgot to be embarrassed and self-conscious and ashamed, and they *allowed the song to take them*.

Someone is waiting for you to say yes.

amazing huh? yea I thought so too…..
