The works of Author C.L. Harmon
So many people seek to find themselves. And if ever they find what they seek, then how sad that is for them. Because never again will they know the joy of continuing self discovery. We should never seek an end to what can be, when the possibilities of what could be are endless.

Leave a CommentLetting go of everything is like free falling from a great height. But if all we do is worry about where we land, then we have only let go to grasp onto something else. Falling is our freedom because it means we hold onto nothing and nothing holds on to us. And though it may be a hard landing, there will be no weight to carry once we pick ourselves up to move into a direction free of everything which held us in place.

Leave a CommentBeing out of a negative situation is standing on the outside looking inside. It’s a perspective like no other. The pain no longer has a hold on us and the misery is falling away. But when we see it with anger, we are still connected to the negativity regardless of how far outside we may be. And that connection keeps us from finding a new inside that fulfills us to the point that we never want to be on the outside again.

Leave a CommentIt’s okay to bring remnants of yesterday into today. But only bring the pieces that help you appreciate the now and entice the anticipation of tomorrow. Everything else is already spent and should remain only in our wisdom and memories.

Leave a CommentThere’s glory in the difficult and conviction in the complicated. So many situations in life seem to test us with unwarranted difficulties. And to make it worse, they often seem like such futile tests. But it’s not so much about the experiences as where they lead us. When we need a new perspective, it’s not so much the route which guides us there that is important, but the enlightenment which awaits us when we get to the destination.

Leave a CommentThe easy way to anything was used up a long time ago. This leaves us with the hard way or the belief there is no way. Either way we choose, the universe will let us. And in the end, there will be no doubt to anyone as to which one we chose. Because those of us who chose the hard way will have a history admired and bewildered by those who believed there was no way.

Leave a CommentWhen we feel something passionately, it changes us profoundly. It’s as though an energy source has been released inside us that cannot be harnessed. It is an intensity that is rare due to its overwhelming effect. And it comes with purpose that must be realized. Passion without purpose is wind in a bottle with no escape, but passion with purpose is conviction in in an unstoppable motion.

Leave a CommentThere is something inside you clawing to get out and you are unknowingly its prison. It may be hope or passion or even the truth. And only you hold the key to let it out. Every day what is locked up inside yearns for freedom. And within its release resides the missing element your life has been missing. Opening your heart opens up your mind. And any open door is the first step to freedom.

Leave a CommentWeathering the storm does not mean you will not get wet in the pouring rain or lose your possessions to the fierce winds. It does not mean you will always be safe and sheltered from the hale and lightning. It means you are willing to carry on in its aftermath and have the courage to believe that the beauty of tomorrow is greater than the carnage of yesterday. It’s the absolute acknowledgement that there is no storm in life with more intensity than the ones we create when we choose to overcome.

Leave a CommentA new beginning does not come because there is a new day or a new opportunity. It is possible because we build it. Circumstances are either invitations into something different or excuses to remain the same. The ability to change our lives resides in our willingness to move forward when everything in our current situation pulls us back.
