Who of us has not wondered, at some point in life, if we really are living to our fullest potential? That we are really experiencing all that we are capable of experiencing?
Every human being has been given the capacity to live abundantly, without boundaries. But the scope of this freedom is too large for many of us to comprehend, so we shy away from the vastness of all that is possible and instead, we prefer to hide behind artificial limitations.
And yet, the human Spirit was meant to strive and achieve great things. There is, in each of us, a still, small voice that tells us: “No. That’s not all there is to it. You were meant to live life to the fullest. Abundantly!”
Today’s affirmations are drawn from the 1976 book “Jonathan Livingston Seagull”, written by American author Richard Bach. It is a simple story with a profound message: that we can all be so much more than we believe, or are given to believe…..and that God - or fortune, if you wish - is on the side of the bold, the adventurous and the free in Spirit.
Jonathan Livingston Seagull was an out-of-the-box thinker. He discovered that for those who dare to dream, even the sky is not the limit.

8. Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished:
if you’re alive, it isn’t.

everywhere at once across space and time.
Oil Blend: Believe
