Finding Myself After All of That

Mary Lee Weir-blog It has taken quite some time for me to realize that following the spiritual path is not the end of the world as I know it. For a time I was confused, thinking I had to be a certain way, change who I was, reconstruct what goals I wanted to achieve, etc. Of course, this is all pressure I placed on myself, when suddenly it hit me, ‘you can be you while becoming a better you’.

Feeding the spirit is a very helpful way to fulfill dreams. I unearthed a new remarkable way to nourish my creative spirit, a path of strength along the artistic journey filled with amazing moments of peace and self-love. In those wonderful moments of silence I started to glimpse the storehouse of everything I needed to live life gloriously, joyously, and abundantly.

When one decides to walk a spiritual path it does not mean that one has to loose oneself to that particular path. As a matter of fact I feel there is a certain responsibility we should try and maintain and that is to find “What is my own truth?”

World of Sleepers

Earthquake hits Chile“World of Sleepers”, from the World of Sleepers Album, is a song by a Swedish duo calling themselves Carbon based Lifeforms. The album mixes together deep and gentle beats layered with organic sounds and sublime messages of earth awareness.

The few words in this particular song for me, draws on the deep realization that western society is indeed “slowly crawling in the dark”; civilized humans are for the majority in a slumber, as if overdosed on generic sleep aids, unable to coherently adapt to the cries of an unhealthy planet.

The fitful individual is riddled with fear and if awakened to re-connect with higher consciousness, the feeling of being trapped and overwhelmed is instantaneous. Either not willing to accept reality or too weighed down by the toxicity of their environment, if unprotected and unsupported, often they return to being, “swallowed by the seductive night”.

The feeling I have when I listen to this song is that each day as it passes, only shadows the last with the clarity that two worlds are gathering more distance, the unconscious collective is fast separating from the conscious collective.

A Spiritual Journey Across America (2010)

Mary Lee Weir and her camera I started off driving from my family town on the east coast of Florida, along the gulf-of-mexico, into Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, final destination California.

I was in India April 2010 when I decided that I needed an adventure to set me on a personal journey of self-love and self-healing. I always wanted to drive cross-country and photograph the magnificent American landscape. So, in May of 2010 I returned to America, and by July 2010 I began a tremendous journey 'inward'.

It was compelling. I was completely guided by a higher consciousness, which i felt encouraged me to take the journey alone.

Little moments I cannot elaborate upon as it would not make sense. Though it may be safe to say a pattern developed, strengthening my faith, that each instant everything would be provided.
