Inspirations

so close

I am not God, I am not a leader. Nor am I a teacher or guru. Let me merely walk ahead to pick up the stones from the path. Grant me to find God, so that I can show you God. Let me walk ahead, do not be afraid, I will return. Let me pave the way through this barren desert, where the fruitless ground outlines its skeleton. Do not fear my wounds, they heal with time. I have received the strength, my inner compass that shows me the way back to the house. I am not God, I am not a leader. Let me show you which way to go so that you do not have to stumble. So that you do not have to hide the tattered clothes that leave you naked.

The pain is gone

Is this the moment, then, that I move on? That the pain has become so bearable that it no longer affects me. That this month I will become older than you were. I search my whole body, physically and emotionally, but the pain is gone. It feels peaceful and strange at the same time; you have been gone for so long now, and it is fine this way. I once wrote a song about it called “For The Better.” The song is a look back at the last moment in the hospital when we knew you were going and we had to, but were also allowed to, say goodbye. That it was better this way; you were allowed to let go of the pain and take your place in a new existence. As if that now

Loneliness

It sounds like the poison of society: loneliness, being alone. We are quick to think of older people who have lost the love of their life and are simply waiting for the deliverance of death, so that they may be reunited. Loneliness: a nightmare for many. But loneliness does not have to be merely physical in nature, nor is it just something older people have to deal with. Loneliness is characterized by its multifaceted nature and affects everyone. In addition to the physical experience, one can also be mentally or emotionally lonely. When you are among people, with your family, friends, or partner. Lonely because you do not feel connected to those who are so close. Mentally, because your ideas and thoughts find no hearing.

the power within yourself

Get up after you have fallen and walk on.

Letting go of the past is the only thing you need to do. No longer try to hold on to what no longer serves you. The dust behind you will settle until it waits again to be stirred up by the next seeker. Nothing remains the same, for anyone; why should it be any different for you? Therefore, get up again and walk on, move on with your life and do not keep grieving. Allow yourself to feel sadness, but also see the relief as a moment to move forward.

Inner peace

True happiness is not found outside of us. I began to discover it more and more in my meditation. Meditation is not a matter of 'stopping thinking' or sitting as still as possible and focusing on your breathing. That is merely the vehicle. Meditation is peace. An inner peace within ourselves that transcends all situations and circumstances.

follow your heart

The creation of the heart

Only with empty hands can you join hands. Embrace your brother and sister; do not leave them standing alone. But also give them the freedom to reject your love. They must find God's love; therein lies the true liberation of the heart.

follow your heart

I am giving you something, my heart, a compass to find your way back.

Do not skip me, do not forget me. Do not let me go in the darkness now that I am accustomed to the light. I give you something, my heart, a compass to find the way back. It will be your heart that shows you where to go and how to walk. Therefore, do not be afraid, for you do not need to search for the way. The path back to me is already present within you. The way of the heart. But why then this separation? Why am I being sent away from home to find her again? Who says that I am sending you away? It is your own choice to come closer to me that ensures you create the circumstances.

Nature is my church
no one is perfect

Nature is my church!

As I walked here, I felt my father very strongly with me; he said, “Keep your attention on me,” but after a few steps my attention wavered, and again he said, “Focus, stay with me.” He let me experience the distance between him and me and how difficult it is not to be distracted by external stimuli. That led me to look at myself and have, somewhat, a feeling that I was failing. My own father, and I could not keep my attention on him. But it was as if he wanted to make clear to me then what the exercise really was: no one is perfect! We will be hurt, deceived, and things will be expected of us that we cannot live up to.

to be seen

Whoever isn't gone is seen!

Playing hide-and-seek—who didn't enjoy it as a child? But even as an adult, I am… or was capable of playing hide-and-seek. I could always blame it on my zodiac sign, Scorpio; the mysterious little creature that likes to hide in the smallest nooks and crannies and wants to remain unseen. And that was indeed my great challenge, because how do you stay unseen when you are nearly 2 meters tall? Of course, I am no longer that insecure teenager with acne, a mullet in my neck, and hunched shoulders. But still, being seen wasn't really necessary.

freedom

Be free to listen to the wings of birds in the wind

Be free to listen to the wings of birds in the wind. Be free to look at the clouds in the sky dancing like a soft embrace before the sun. Give the other your greeting with a smile and recognition in the heart. Would the world not look cold and bleak without your presence? Every greeting, every smile shines light on the shadow of life. Every act of brotherhood creates unity as it is meant to be. No more separation, but the embrace of one another in love; in thoughts or through physical expression. For true love, this makes no difference. What is measurable need not be the truth. Open your eyes and look ahead; however, you do not see to the side and from

the power within yourself

We have been given a body, yet we build temples

We have been given a body, yet we build temples, churches, and other houses of worship. We have been given ears, but we listen only to others whose word we accept as truth. We have been given eyes to see, but we look only outside ourselves. We feel, but only what the other does to us. Our attention is not focused on what is already within us, but only on what is taking place outside of us. We are merely observers of half the truth. Our attention goes outward and we lose its power. Our senses are continuously focused on what is taking place outside of us, and we forget our inner richness. God did not build the church; he gave us the body. What we see is not

Silence, only silence has the potential to make sound heard

Silence, only silence has the potential to make sound heard. Silence, only in silence do you hear the breath of the universe; the cosmic heartbeat of all that is. Darkness, only in the dark is there a chance to see light. Darkness, only then can a light break forth that makes us realize that darkness is merely the closing of our eyes to the light. Alone, from solitude you discover that everything is already one. Alone, already one, only you can rise above the masses and find unity in the 'all' that is already 'one'. It is within the duality of our existence that the keys to unity, to healing, to connection with the source can be found. It is where we
