When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)?

This profound moment is very clear, pronounced, shocking, and deep. The world in which I lived and worked, had crashed down all around me. My business that I’ve been struggling for years to make successful, had also fallen into its knees, clubbed to death by the banking crisis in 2008. I’m bank account blocked and stripped, my customers were screaming at me, my suppliers were threatening me, my ex hated me because I didn’t give her any money.

In the dark and lonely moment after a long sleepless night, I swung my legs off the bed with my head cradled in my hands. I eventually stopped whimpering, why me? Why me? Why me?

Almost not daring to hear myself, I whispered alone in the dark, it’s my life, it was my business, and I am as mad as it sounds, responsible for everything.

I am responsible, because it’s my life.

That moment was my waking up to being an adult, truly responsible for absolutely every possible thing which had to do with me as an individual human being. My bank account, my relationships to customers, suppliers, friends, family, my own self-worth, my health, my creativity, my nutrition,

As metaphor go, this was my pickax . to the forehead waking up moment.

From that moment forward, I made every moment of my waking day from that distant past to this very present second an experience of my conscious creating.

To live in abundance, financial, emotional, spiritual, creative, and physical is the consequence of having become an adult. How deeply I wish everyone who reads these words and lines that they to become an adult fully and responsibly. love Liam

Equinimity

Poem: Equanimity

Written by Liam

While walking the rim of a moon-swept sea,

Arm in arm with a thought called me.

We chatted, we talked, we pondered on high,

About the meaning of being, of seeing, of I.

The roar of surf, the sweep of tide,

In the blood-red pulse, a seagull cried.

In this screech, shone the moon-filled sea,

The moment deep, the you in me.

We now unite in a flash of sight,

The I who we were before the call.

My paradigm absorbed in newfound light,

Two melted to one, this emergent in all.

Inspired insight happens within you too,

A way to see, a way to feel, a way to become equanimity.

Goals

What was the hardest personal goal you’ve set for yourself?

Goals should be challenging enough to motivate and stimulate growth, they should also be realistic and attainable to maintain motivation, foster learning, and support well-being. Finding the right balance is key to effective goal-setting. Goal should never be hard, but Reproducible. Liam

Petals

Poetry: Petals

by Liam

This heart of mine is all trouble and heavy,

That sweet place of peace has lost the divine.

Not by the poison of the bee or the sting of the wasp.

The absence of my awareness is its corruption.

My weighted sigh, its negligence,

Whispering woe unto my ears.

Let me now run, abandon the protocol,

Hurl myself into the maelstrom of chaos.

Loose the burden of this pretending self

Or simply be like petals blown into the flame of love,

Where jasmine caresses the dark ash,

Where beauty returns to the face of joy,

Brings laughter again to the smile of you.

You, alive in the wasp, the bee, the jasmine, and me.

Me a tumbleweed rolling across the desert land ,

Casting loves seeds to tomorrows awareness

Again free, united with the wind, sky and thee.
