However long this last, whether it’s friendship, keeping in touch or a lifetime romance, you’ll always be a sacred part of my life, now and in other dimensions to come. For no relationship is without reason and every relationship imparts a seed. If it wasn’t meant to be, it just wouldn’t be, so simply allow what’s predestined to be. Danny G.
Declare Yourself and Seek Within
You put all your worth in another’s perception, when you know clearly you understand yourself best. You listen to them as though their opinion matters above all, as though you don’t trust your own intuition and God. Seek yourself, from within, don’t look outside you as you face the storm. Know you have everything you need, to fulfill your destiny, purpose and will. Danny G.

You were never meant to fix something that was never broken to begin with. Danny G.
Choose Wisely
Actions have either positive rewards or negative consequences. Our loving father, God, would much rather you get the rewards then the negative consequences through your poor choices. If you don’t pay any attention to your thoughts or actions, you will end up living a lie, which is essentially, a life of many troubles. If you’re pessimistic, persistently fearful or you behave carelessly, you will face the consequences, not because God loves you any less, but because God gave you the gift of free will, and you chose poorly. God is a spirit of love and compassion, and anything other than this definition, is not from him. You are an extension of God through the unique soul that you are. Anything that is not love is not who you are. Your soul chooses God and compassion, not the choices that would steer you off your divine path. Danny G.
A Persistent Faith
Don’t remain stagnant your entire life, since all opportunities need risks and a persistent faith. When you declare your faith, and persistently march towards your destiny, God shows up and moves mountains, that seemed insurmountable from the start. Danny G.
Love is a Compass (Poem)
Love is a compass,
A guided direction
To bring us closer
To our divine destiny.
Though we may not know it,
Every loved one brings us closer,
To our dreams,
And mission.
As we struggle to find the answer,
A loved one gives us insight,
To our divine calling and
Unanswered questions.
Though we fight or argue,
Love always sustains,
Because we’re all human beings
Interconnected as a whole.
Though some come, some leave,
The true ones always leaves a print,
And one step closer
To our divine destiny.
One step closer,
To understand to each other
And ourselves as a whole.
Quote for Today
Mistakes are not the true killer, guilt and condemnation are. Mistakes teaches, and guilt and condemnation eventually eats away at the body and mind. Danny G.
Pulled Myself Together and Claimed (Poem)
When I lay in bed,
Remembering the nights I spent in dread.
I realize it was not long ago,
That I felt so sad and low.
I so wanted an escape,
To solve all my problems and my rage,
Prayed for help from up above,
Said help me now if you’re a source of love.
Confusion swept away,
When nothing happened I burst away.
I kept treading on the path,
Trying my best when I was sad.
I kept a happy face,
When all I did all day was pace.
And speak to God, is this worth it,
If in the end I’m sad and lose it.
Then the day finally came,
I pulled myself together and claimed,
The fear and dread isn’t here to stay,
As I thank God for the coming day.
Changed my beliefs and spoke the truth,
Spoke it into being while feeling aloof.
Although at first I didn’t believe it,
Spoke it so much that now I feel it.
Thanked God from up above,
Said thank you for being a source of love.
That day I finally meant it,
As before I was broken and loathed it.
Stay positive and don’t waiver,
Stand boldly, praise, don’t reconsider.
Know you have control,
As you seek expansion of the soul.
And know this day won’t come,
If you relinquish before it’s done.
Letting Go and Embracing
What happens when your only concern is material possessions or wealth or recognition, then you lose it? You lose yourself in the process. If you want to put all your heart in something, choose God and your soul, for this never leaves you. Danny G.
Look At The Source Not The Surface
Overcoming an addiction can be difficult if we focus merely on our will power creating the change, so why not focus on changing the underlying beliefs that created the addiction in the first place?
What is a drug addiction? Is it a craving that is beyond your control? Or is it a belief you don’t have control? Is anything beyond your control in reality?
If you say my behaviour is beyond my control, then you’re basically saying you can not control your thoughts, words or actions. What creates or feeds an addiction other than your thoughts, words and actions? You’re either thinking or speaking about this addiction being out of your control, thereby, causing you to behave inappropriately.
What would have happened if you lived your entire life saying I will never have an addiction problem, since I have discipline and will power. I don’t care to put harmful drugs in my body, since I care about my physiology.
If you say your thoughts and words hold power, would you be in the same place today? Talk yourself into a new way of thinking about the addiction, and about your beliefs about the addiction. You talked yourself into creating this addiction, so now the job is to talk yourself out of it. The problem is you don’t believe you have control over this dependency, so you create a reality out of your control.
This addiction may be caused by overwhelming emotions that you’ve been trying to avoid all these years through drugs. It’s your way of numbing the pain. You take this drug and you’re distracted from your emotions, which causes you to feel less for the moment. You suppress it over and over again through the same drugs and you never deal with the emotions to begin with. Then you say this addiction is beyond your control because you can not face this turmoil inside of you.
The drug impairs your mind and you revert to behaviour that gets you in trouble, and then you have all this trouble that you brought on yourself. You then say I brought this on myself through my own stupidity and I could have changed all of this by making better choices. You then blame yourself and you feel guilty for bringing this turmoil in your life.
If you created this addiction, then you can change it through the only means that created the addiction to begin with, your thoughts. Start declaring I can do it, and sooner or later you’ll be living your new beliefs and acting on it. Overcoming an addiction can be difficult, but you have two options, believe it’s within your control or believe it’s the forces of nature deciding for you.
Don’t give up if you have a few trials and errors. For every new beginning and anything worthwhile, there are detours and challenges along the path, but they all lead you back to wellness and happiness.
You may say I just like to get high, I love the feeling. I just like to get drunk, I love the feeling. One doesn’t negate the other, you can still be addicted to the feeling or craving. However, you adopted a belief that you have poor discipline and poor self-control. You’ve adopted a belief that you don’t care what you do to your body.
Ask yourself this question. If you cared deeply about your longevity, about your physical and mental wellbeing, and you knew street drugs were harmful for you, would you use them regardless?
Besides just going through the motions, why do you want that high so much? Do you believe you can’t be happy on your own terms, or have fun without the high? Another reason for using drugs may be that you’re mentally ill and you feel you need this drug to reduce the overwhelming fear or despair.
Why not visit your doctor and let him prescribe you an actual medicine that would alleviate your symptoms? Do you believe street drugs will help your condition? Which one do you think will be more effective, street drugs or the medicine?
Furthermore, If you want to overcome this addiction, don’t be too preoccupied with the surface. Surface would imply trying to overcome an addiction through sheer will power. Why does sheer will power work sometimes and other times, it’s not enough. We need to change the underlying beliefs which says, “I just have poor discipline, and I’ll always struggle with this. It’s just my reality, or disease.”
When you behave in a certain manner for a long period of time, you begin acting on autopilot, not paying any attention to why you’re doing something, and then you conclude it’s out of your control.
Have you ever had a day where you had many things to do and everything kept on piling up and you said I’m just not with it today? I can’t focus and I’m not feeling very well, but I can’t put my finger on it. How can you focus on the source of the problem when you’re focusing on everything but the source?
The only way to truly heal is to quiet your mind, change your thoughts and create a new belief. What happens when you quiet down and you’re still? Are you preoccupied with anything other than your thoughts? What is the primary reason of your addiction? Isn’t it your thoughts?
The answer isn’t medicating yourself through drugs and alcohol. The answer is to go to the source, which is your thoughts and God.
Acknowledge that you’re going to face this reality and not avoid it until your life spirals out of control, and dare to say I CAN DO THIS!
