No matter where we go or what we do, the world is full of noise and chaos. Everybody is racing to be heard. We all want to make a point. Sometimes it doesn’t matter whether we are understood or not as long as we are heard, wasting important messages that do not fulfill their intended purposes. Despite our clamor to speak and be heard, there is a language that we have ignored for such a long, long time. This is the language of the universe and of every pulsating energy there ever was. This is the language that is devoid of words or sounds but speak the loudest volume that can reach the heavens if need be. This is the language you and I should practice once again—the language of our actions, our thoughts, our intentions, our energies. Long before we open our mouths to deliver a message, rest assured that our energies have already declared themselves. In fact, sometimes the loudest mouths are the lowest spirits, and if anybody would take a second or a minute to hear and see through their noise, a whole different person is waiting to be discovered and, oftentimes, comforted. Actions indeed speak louder than words. A crossed leg here, a fleeting look there, arms on the hips, head tilted to one side—these are all nonverbal cues of communication. Often there is no need to do any action at all. A person can sit or stand really still and his or her energies will be known anyway. However, how many of us would take that precious second or minute to hear someone’s unspoken language? How many of us would pause before launching on our own tirade? How many would listen to one’s heart and know how if it is centered well that day? Furthermore, how many would look into the eyes of a dog, a cat, or any animal for that matter and feel what they are trying to communicate? Animals have a different vibrational frequency, but they are creatures who exhibit the same energies we give off. Oftentimes, they are smarter than humans. Animals can read our unspoken language, but most humans taken theirs for granted. Who listens to our unspoken language? Who cares about the unspoken intentions and longings of the heart? For sure, someone so much larger than all of us put together does, and because we are created in her image, shouldn’t we listen as well? Read the full article

We’ve all been there before: we prepare so well in advance for something but later find none going according to plans. Plans have a way of falling down in mid-flight or of not taking off as we desire. When you pour your all in a plan and it doesn’t happen, nothing can be as frustrating, but pause for a moment and take heart. Believe it or not, the universe knows what you need far more than you do. As old as it is, you can trust the universe to give you what you need at the right time and the right place. As much as we’d like to take control into our hands, the universe doesn’t work that way. It sees what we don’t—it sees the future, it sees the consequences of our actions, it sees our hearts and our minds. When we let go and let the universe take the reins in her hands, we are often led to wondrous discoveries about ourselves and about the world. Things that we had no way of knowing was even possible for us will materialize before us. What we think are twisted fate are actually beautiful in the grand scheme of things. When we consider ourselves instead of the domino of effect our actions, thoughts, and speech will cause and when we try to manipulate the events happening to us, we are stopping the universe from doing what it can do best for all of mankind—yes, not just one person but all of us because everything is interconnected no matter how small and seemingly inconsequential. The next time plans do not happen, take a step back and relax. Trust that something bigger than you will ever be is at play. Let it be. There is no sense fighting what you cannot win, so let go of the reins, pray, and believe that the universe has your best interest. Watch what it will hand to you and always be grateful that you do not have to continuously stir your life to make something happen. Read the full article

It is not gravity that holds us down. It is love. What keeps us alive are not the nutritious food we take or the air that we breathe. It is love. Love is the most powerful, most potent elixir in the universe, and those who have been searching for the fountain of youth have been seeking the wrong thing. The mysteries of love are as infinite as the mysteries of the universe itself. No wonder oftentimes it remains invisible to us even when it is right under our nose, even if we breathe it. Consider how we came into being. Think about the Source of all life. Love is the source. Love designed the world to reflect its grandeur and majesty. Love can fill the darkest corner with light because Love is light. And because of Love itself, humanity receives chance after chance to right its wrongs. Every day is a chance to make the world better, to make our lives living testaments of Love. How often do we reflect about love? What does love mean to you? Is it the romantic kind, the one that requires someone from the opposite sex to be felt and given in return? Is it the kind that needs to keep up with the standards of society and, more specifically, those of your friends? Is finding genuine unconditional love possible today? It’s a shame if your answer is no. Genuine, unconditional love is not only possible, but it is free for all every single moment in time. How can we miss it in the morning sunlight or the afternoon breeze? How can we not see it in the twinkle of the starts or the phases of the moon? How can we not feel it from the excited yelps of our precious dogs? Love is all around. It seems like a hype, but really, love is everywhere. Here’s hoping today you will allow yourself to shed the pressures of the world and just be your awesome self, open and willing to feel the love all around. Read the full article

Love is the single most potent weapon in the all the universes. It is greater than all the darkness combined. It manifests in an infinite number of ways every day in our lives, yet love is also the easiest to abuse and ignore. Our individual journeys began as a little speck created out of love. The universe itself is a creation of love. Throughout our journey, love has always been there, guiding our ways, feeding our bodies, our minds, and our hearts, and leading our souls to our predetermined purposes. Love has always been part of our journey even when it is unnamed and unrecognized. It is no surprise then that we learned to love in return. We became beings capable of loving everything that we cross paths with—people, places, things. And while we grow in years and in experience, we learned to love in various degrees and in many ways. Sometimes we love a little too much to the point of suffocation or over-possession. Sometimes we love too little and leave those around us yearning for more. Sometimes we abuse the love we receive and selfishly require more. Still sometimes we ignore the love we see and feel, too complacent that it is always there. To err is human after all, and nothing is as human as loving. Our saving grace is still love—the love that flows abundantly, eternally from the Divine Grace, the mother of all, the source of all love and light in the universe. It is her love that puts everything in time and space where it should be; it is her love that is overflows in our lives. Hers is the greatest, most intense love of all. To have created the universe, to give breath every single day even to people who are ungrateful to her, to make ways for life to thrive—hers is indeed the greatest love there is. Love is divine. And while we cannot compare to her love, we can do as we are destined to do—love and be loved in return. Light and love, always! Read the full article

This blog is closely related to the previous one on my website. If you haven’t read “The Art of Living in the Present,” click https://bullvaulter.com/the-art-of-living-in-the-present/. Living life to the fullest means many things, but first and foremost, it means being in the present. There is no space or time to wallow in the regrets of the past or to entertain worries about the future. Instead, there are frequent pauses to appreciate the moments that make life worthwhile, and every experience is seen as important no matter how small or trivial they seem. A life lived to the fullest values the self, without which one cannot reach out to the world. The self is the core of a person. Whether you call your core your conscience, your soul, your fire, it doesn’t matter. What matters is how you value yourself and whether the self is dedicated to a higher calling or a grander cause. A life lived to the fullest is a life shared with others, a life given to service. Nothing can be more rewarding than knowing you are able to touch the lives of others and help in whatever situation they are in without expectation of what one will receive in return for services or for acts of kindness. A life lived to the fullest is not full of ego, pride, or conceit; a life lived to the fullest does not seek attention or applause. It is contented knowing it is of purpose. A life lived to the fullest appreciates talents as gifts from the Divine Mother and knows that there is a purpose for everything in the universe. A life lived to the fullest understands faith and the magic it brings to anyone who believes it. Ancient civilization knows more about living life to the fullest than we do today. They were people who listened to the divine within and without. They were people who looked at the universe and understood the infinite connection of people and events to achieve the divine plan of the Divine Mother. They knew their existence was for a divine purpose. How we forget that today! How we live day by day without pause or consideration that our words and actions will echo and affect the whole universe. Sometimes, we step out the door to meet the requirements of the day without greeting the universe in grateful appreciation. We go through the motions of life always a step or two ahead of ourselves or always steeped in the whys and what-ifs of the past. We drown ourselves in our emotions and in the things of the physical world, and if that is not enough, we drown ourselves in our vices. How we forget to reach within ourselves and listen to our core, the core that knows the Great Mother right from the beginning, the core we neglect in our pursuit for material pleasures, the core that holds all the answers to our questions straight from the divine. To live life to the fullest, reach within and branch without. Read the full article

Living in the present is a matter of choice, one that must be renewed every day with conviction. Today—the present—is indeed a gift that must be appreciated and taken care of. It takes mindful living to truly live in the here and now. We have the tendency to succumb to the past and to look too far into the future, missing the whole point of living the present. Everything comes to pass. Even the beautiful moments we have today will be no more tomorrow. The same is true for every grief and every trial. These moments must be acknowledged and accepted, but we must let go. Regret settles in when we don’t seize the present and make the most of it. You may regret a failed relationship or a missed business deal. You may regret not spending enough time with your parents when they were still alive, or you regret not working on your grades when you were still in university. These are all valid regrets, and we all have one or another. But regrets belong to the past, so let them stay there. They have no business bogging down your present. Acknowledge where you could have done better and thank the present for the opportunity to re-align yourself and to be a better version of who you are. That’s all you should do for what is already in the past—learn and let go. The future too is a constant source of pressure: Will I find a job after graduation? Will I make it through labor pains? Is he the one? Will he asked me to marry him? Will the business survive this negative feedback? Worry is a valid emotion, but it is a useless one. Again, reaffirm your faith in yourself, in what you can do, and in the goodness of the universe. Prepare what you can, pray, and let the pieces fall where they should. That’s all you can do for the future—hope for the best and let go. When you let go of the past and the future, you are left with nothing but the present, the only thing that should consume you, your thoughts, and your efforts. Be present. Enjoy where you are in life—your work, your kids, your friends. Live each moment to the fullest and give it your best so there will be no regrets. Choose the present. It is, after all, the best gift there is. Read the full article
