Note from Suzanne: This week Ty and I attended a really fun Christmas party. All present were separated into four groups for a variety of games. For one of these games each team was given a word and had to write a poem based on that word (ours was “sausage!”). [...]
Mastery of the emotions is a lofty goal. To hold a steady state of peace is nigh unto impossible for the average human. Strive for perfection, if you please, but be quite pleased to merely be aware of your emotions from moment to moment. Pay attention to your body. This [...]
You package your gifts in a box, then wrap them in colorful paper. Why do you do this? So that the recipient does not know in advance what treasure lies inside. YOU are gift-wrapped, my friend. God has packaged you for a while in the most beautiful of wrappings: a [...]
Suddenly a thought occurs to you. You have forgotten to do this or that, or you focus on how much work lies ahead. Suddenly you are no longer able to enjoy yourself. The body tenses. What has happened? You were in the now, but now your consciousness has shifted to [...]
An argument that lasts but a minute of your time does cause you to separate yourself from another for not just a minute, but for years. You no longer speak to that other. The body clenches at the mere anticipation of crossing paths, and when you do cross paths, you [...]
Abandonment. What does this mean? In your concept it means that another has left you—that they no longer need nor want you. The very reading of these words brings pain to your heart. All humans want to be needed, wanted, and loved. We wish you to know that when one [...]
Yes, it is true that man is meant to thrive. All things seek evolution, and man is no different. What is evolution, but a path of growth and improvement? This is your natural tendency. Can you stop the body from growing? Behold your fingernails. Behold the self-healing of a cut. [...]
Do you feel the need to brag and boast? It is quite normal, but ask yourself why. If it is an inordinate need to feel better about yourself, then you have forgotten Who your Self truly is. It is one thing to share with others if that sharing is [...]
Why is it necessary to be still to hear the voice of God? The human is programmed to be busy. This is not part of your spiritual make-up, but a cultural learning. There are cultures that accept stillness as a rite, knowing that this will bring communion with the Self. [...]
The one known as St. Francis of Assisi did pray to be an instrument of the Lord. What does this mean? An instrument is a tool—an implement used to affect and change something for a desired result. If God were to use you, what result would God desire? You know [...]
When you gaze at the ocean, what do you feel? Are you drawn in by the beauty, the vastness, the power, the majesty? You could sit and stare for hours, could you not? Do you not realize that the same Source that created the ocean created you? What were the [...]
You are very limited by your language, and your language limits you. There are not words to express your true nature. You use words such as "Spirit" and "God" and "Love," but how can these finite expressions express that which is boundless? You must rise above vocabulary and experience that [...]
You hear a tiny voice inside. From this voice you cannot hide. Is it but imagination? Then why such utter fascination? Have you not asked, "Are You there? Do You truly know my every hair? Is it You who whispers in my ear? The One so many were taught [...]
Holidays with missing friends. You are supposed to give thanks. You are surrounded by others who are celebrating, yet there feels as if there is a hole in your heart. You are so very used to the physical presence of loved ones who have passed that their absence leaves an [...]
Prominent names do make you sit up and pay attention. There are some who stand out as leaders and shine a special light. Others look upon them with adulation. Why is this? For they see in that other a bit of what they feel they lack. Why do you have [...]
"Ancient wisdom and modern-day science tell us that all is energy. This energy flows through us and around us, connecting us with far more wisdom and insight than most of us take advantage of. Join author and speaker Suzanne Giesemann for a live 1 hour 40 minute presentation full of [...]
Freedom comes with a price. Surrender of the ego is the admission fee to Heaven. Heaven is where you are when you finally discover that Love is all that matters. When you can put this realization into practice and see and feel and be Love in every moment, with no [...]
Your fellow human beings Who walk upon the earth Share the same emotions Which you have felt since birth. You think that you are separate But this is not quite so. Separation is illusion When to the spirit you do go. All is One in mind and heart. [...]
We all work together—those in spirit and those in form. It is a team effort, this thing called Life. Do you think you need a body to exist? Push this thought aside. It is far too Self-limiting. You are but one aspect of Limitless Power and Love. Love makes the [...]
Step across the threshold to tomorrow. It is all unfolding now, for in reality, there is no tomorrow. There is only this present moment. To step into your future or your past requires only a change of focus. Fear not the future, for it will never get here. It is [...]
Survivors … those who endure pain and suffering and hardship and do not perish. All of you are survivors. Do you not yet know this? And there is not a soul among you who will be kicked off the island. Why watch your television when there is so much [...]
When you walk into a room, do people notice? If so, is it because of your loud voice, your fancy clothes, or something far more subtle? Is it the energy of love you exude? Which would you rather be known for: external things or your very vibration of peace and [...]
Never a moment passes that you are alone. Never a moment passes that you are not loved. Never does a breath pass your lips that god does not know about it. You live and breathe Love. The more you express it, the more you experience Truth. You see all [...]
