The Power of Words

(The following words can be found in the bible. St John, chapter 1.)

IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE ‘WORD’.

Oh boy! It is about then that our (humanity) problems started or that is when separation started to be experienced. As we started to use words and no longer communicated through thoughts or image projections we found that it was possible to hide truths. Duality took on another major element.

Imagine with me for a moment a scene measured from within our three dimensional perception from a long, long time ago. A time when we were still in the form of energy patterns and communication took place through an exchange of vibrations, thought or image projections. We were looking for a way to experience something beyond what we were and to do that we had to take on solid form. We had also to find a way of blocking out the memories of all knowingness. A grand experiment indeed. From a place of all-knowing creator energy patterns to a place of being in solid form and what can only be perceived as one of darkness and separation. It is not overly important as to how it all came about . It is more important to look at how we developed our languages and the power or lack thereof of the words we use in our conversations. Through this section, I wish to share with you from whence we came, where we have traveled and where in the end we have chosen in my opinion to move towards.

From whence we came.

O nce we took on the form of solid energy in this biological bubble we call the human body, we have had little or no conscious command over much of this. We made our choice of parents and circumstances before we re-entered into the life cycle of human experiences. At some point in each of these experiences we picked up words initially from our parents who did exactly the same as they entered into this life cycle. Within the choice we made for our parents is also has a history of word choices and which could be either empowering or debilitating. Understand that there is no judgment in those words, remembering that we chose them so that we had the best possible beginning for the journey we wished to experience.

Where we have traveled.

Most will then have had the experience of school perhaps even through many different levels. Our relationships within those systems will definitely have influenced our vocabulary. It is important to note we are all totally unique and even though inside the same systems particular words may be experienced differently from individual to individual. Within the family and schooling experience we learn how to use words to our advantage and also to our disadvantage.
The next challenge many might experience is the difference even between the meaning behind individual words depending on which part of a country you find yourself situated. Add on top of that even in those countries that have English as their main language there will be different meanings attached to words which are spelled exactly the same and for all intents and purposes are the same.

In addition to all of the previous the fact that not only within the English language which I am using for the purpose of sharing this information there are so many different languages around the world. Is it any wonder we can’t understand each other? Is it any wonder that there are conflicts going on all around the world? Is it any wonder there is the feeling of separation?
We have been through many centuries of rediscovering each other as we started to explore the world.

We have also gone through the challenges of the different languages and we learned to appreciate to a degree each of our cultural differences. There are many challenges still facing us, yet as our world becomes increasingly a smaller place because of the speed in which we can now travel and that the largest part of the world is now also connected through telephone, media and internet. We are most definitely growing closer together and discovering how to understand and accept each other.

In my own personal journey I am fortunate to speak to many different people originating from all corners of the earth. Speaking two languages fluently and understanding another more than enough to follow a conversation I am fortunate to understand the skill of using words to get my messages or my thoughts across to others. Pronunciation and annunciation within the English language also becomes very important when speaking with others where it is not the native tongue. It is important to watch and listen to my partner in communication to notice signs that they might not have understood what I wished to share with them. In doing so it offers me the opportunity to reiterate and perhaps even use different descriptive words to share the information.

When looking at all the challenges we are and have been faced with it certainly seems that we have placed ourselves in a grim position with insurmountable challenges. Having said that, I know that you will agree with me that we are changing rapidly and have been for the last century or so. Look at the way technology has advanced and played a huge role in these changes. We now have the technology to sit at a computer and see, hear and speak to other individuals on the other side of the planet to ourselves instantly, for instance through sharing conversations instantly through email or chat rooms.

It is through these mediums that we are now connecting with each other again. In so many countries around the world we are sharing thoughts and words and in doing so we are beginning to understand each others differences. In that understanding we are starting to realize that we are not all that different from each other and the differences that we have perceived to have been there were because of the difficulties we spoke of earlier within the languages etc. As we become more open and willing to explore the words we use and as we become more willing to understand the different nuances within those words, we start to understand and accept each other more fully.

As we do this on an ever more increasing scale we will no longer have the differences within the words. The different attachments or meanings will disappear. This will bring us ever closer to each other. It will increase the knowingness of whence we came. It will assist in releasing the conflicts we find in many countries. As we find these differences in the words dissipating we will find our selves becoming ever closer to each other. We will find ourselves returning to the ONE.
Do you now see the power and the importance of our words? Will this assist you in looking a little closer at the words you use in your daily communications. Are your words empowering you and those you are talking too, or do the words you use dis-empower? You see! Now that we are communicating we are looking even closer at the words we ourselves are using and we are consciously choosing to use words that are empowering. We are no longer placing limits through the words we speak. We are understanding that with the words and thoughts that we put forth we are creating our very reality.

The human race has been programmed from the very beginning to wish to move forward. All we need to do now to see this is to look at the differences within our own generations. From for instance grandparents on down to grandchildren. We can see the huge changes we have made. We can see the huge steps we have advanced ourselves. We can see the changes in the “WORDS”.

Where is this going to take us? It is my feeling that it will take us to a place of total understanding first. In the words we use there will no longer be the energy of conflict, words will be much more aimed at empowering each other. It is also my belief that as this increases we will also ( and already in many cases has) start to reactivate a sense that has been dormant for thousands of years. This being our sixth sense. We are already feeling the words more and more. We already know much earlier when someone is being untruthful with us. As these senses and skills expand we will return to that place of telepathy or if you prefer no longer having the need to share words.

It is already happening my friends. Open your eyes. Surround yourselves with those that are already playing with these energies. Not only will it enrich your own life! In simply continually being the new you, you will allow others to make the choice of change within themselves and they will. Why you might ask? The answer to that is quite simple. They will see that you are enjoying life to its fullest, they will see that you are an extremely happy person. They will see that you choose LOVE above conflict. So you see dear friends. All you need to do to make the world a brighter happier place is to be willing to play with the words you use in your daily communications.

YET AGAIN! IT BEGINS WITH THE WORD. Change begins with your words. HEAVEN ON EARTH is not that far away anymore, it is no longer a dream, it is a reality that you and I are creating with our choice of words. To close this section I would like to leave you with this thought from the King James version of the bible, St John:

IN THE BEGINNING WAS THE “WORD” and the word was with God, and the word was God.
Could this perhaps be translated in such a manner that all I have shared with you is that you and your words carry the energy of GOD the Creator and that you are that God, Goddess Creator?
ENJOY in JOY dear friends. Enjoy this game for it truly is a fun game.
