This Week’s Quotation:
Real confirmation comes from the highest place within me. At the end of this cycle, whatever the cycle is and whatever an end looks like, as I face my own knowing of what is true, what will matter will be my ability to say, “Yes, I’ve done what was mine to do; I’ve expressed what was mine to express; I’ve brought the gift that was mine to give; I’ve shared my light; and I’ve lived the life that was mine to live; and most of all, I have served that reality that I came here to serve”—that is the test of the fulfillment of a cycle.

At the End of This Cycle
Author, Becoming a Sun
What is a creative cycle?
It could be a day, a year, the completion of a project, the end of a relationship, or the completion of a human lifetime.
Whatever the cycle is, what allows us to know that it was good when you come to the end of it?
Other people have their opinions about your life and mine, for better or for worse. But a slap on the back or an attaboy doesn’t really bring the feeling of fulfillment. And someone else’s criticism doesn’t touch what you really know for yourself.
There is a place within me and within all people that holds the highest vibration and the highest connection we know. In the end, fulfillment is all about my relationship with that reality.
If that is true for you, what does that tell you about how you want to live this day?
What does it mean to become a sun?
Every human being is already a sun on the inside—a being of intense love and light. The difference is that some people have the vision and courage to become a sun on the outside. This difference is our human destiny.

Thank you David! It tells me that I wish to bring to each moment, each day, each week….my highest and finest knowing of this reality you speak of, and treasure its creative release into my/ this world.I so appreciate your emphasis on knowing that it was good. May we be conscious of these cycles, the loving truth of them, and celebrate consciously their generation.
This tells me that in this day and every day, while circumstances change, cycles complete, and new cycles begin, everyday is filled with the new possibility of expressing the highest love vibration that lives within me.
“Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of thy Lord.” This is what the minister of my church used to say at the conclusion of a funeral service. Surely we could say something similar at the conclusion of each creative cycle of our lives, and then move on to the next cycle with joy.
Thank you, David. At this time in our world so many are seeking truth. I have found that ‘truth’ is at best a moving target when our minds grab on to data from other minds, and as long as that data agrees with our own we call it truth. For me Truth can only come from that highest Divine source and my relationship with that loving guidance is everything.
Today I will remember that I know nothing. I will stay present in the moment and welcome the wisdom of peace, love and truth to speak to my soul.
Hopefully we all have clarity (or at least a sense of what it is) of what is ours to do – it makes life so much easier, even when it is hard…..
