The works of Author C.L. Harmon
The days you are given are not meant to be filled, they are yours to be fulfilled. Each day has a purpose which you are tasked to discover. Within that purpose, is an answer you seek, a thought you need to move forward or a new direction your life should go. Enlightenment exists in the purpose and not the trivial.

Leave a CommentDiving into unknown deep water is believing that whatever lies there is worth experiencing. The chance you may not resurface is what keeps you in shallow waters. But the amount of fear you are willing to overcome is not in the water, but in your desire to know your own depth.

Leave a CommentSometimes there is nothing to say. Other times there are words which must be said. And at times we don’t speak when we should and do when we shouldn’t. But in each instance, it is an interaction which either connects or divides. What we convey to others builds bridges to connect or canyons to separate. So always speak your words as though they are the ones you will be remembered by.

Leave a CommentWe often seek a path riddled with obstacles. We go against what is natural, even going backwards only to arrive at places we don’t wish to be. Just because we desire something does not mean it’s the path forward. Resistance is often nature’s way of telling us we are on the wrong path while the path of least resistance guides us effortlessly to where we should go.

Leave a CommentProtect yourself but remain free to make mistakes. Guard your heart but loan it to those you believe worthy. Stand your ground, but always make it in the middle. Challenge your struggles and forgive the ones which best you. Recognize fear, then find the courage to ask its intent. Trust in what you can be and always doubt those who do not share that faith.

Leave a CommentWe all build prisons for ourselves. Some are maximum security because we convict ourselves for life. Others are medium security because we know at some point we need to forgive ourselves. And still others are minimum security. Because we realize our mistakes do not define us and that we deserve a second chance.

Leave a CommentFaith is reaching for something because we believe we are supposed us to have it. Fear is not reaching for something because we believe it’s not meant to be. Reaching without thought of either gives power to faith while erasing the fears which keep us from fulfillment.

Leave a CommentSometimes we have to feel our way through moments in life. There are not always road maps and instructions to gain our bearings because where we need to go is uncharted territory. Feeling our way through is completely letting go of everything that makes sense and still taking a step into the unknown believing we have a place in it.

Leave a CommentIf we scatter stones randomly over an area, we erect nothing. But combine them and we can build whatever we imagine. Life is about building with what is substantial while allowing the debris to scatter into the corners of nowhere. Once we learn this, we have laid the foundation for building a better life.

Leave a CommentInternal conflicts happen within us because we desire something we question in our hearts is good for us. And yet our desire for what we feel we want is so strong, it seems right. But still we have doubts. This conflict, however, is our answer to what path we should follow. Its existence alone tells us that the greatest path for us follow always leads to our heart and not the desires which lead us away from it.
