Knowing the Power Within
by Irene Margolis
In our modern culture, we have become a technology-oriented society where people have become accustomed to communicating by texting, e-mail, and Facebook, and relying on Google to find the answers. On a deeper level, when you go beyond cyberspace, people really have the desire for a more human connection with others. This is why there are so many varieties of online dating services—Match.com, Christian Singles Meet, Senior Singles Meet, etc.—all with the goal of helping people create relationships with other like-minded people, and people within their community. But in search for that perfect companion, I believe many people have overlooked a very important aspect of being, which is their own personal power, or as Deepak Chopra mentions in the Law of Pure Potentiality in his book, “The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success,” “Your power is that of bonding…a bonding that comes from true love…”
What is it that makes us feel empowered? Self power—the love and awareness that you can create your physical world and connect with everyone in it. Creating reality comes from knowing you have the power to do so. The power within you has the ability to attract to you, situations, opportunities, people, and circumstances on a daily basis—forever. When you fully understand that power, you learn to control it and shift your attention into a progressive direction that will help you bask in all life has to offer. You are the most powerful creator in the world.
Your thoughts can literally shape your future, and this is why it is good to be aware of that fact, because if you are thinking, “I don’t want to do that,” then you are literally attracting “that” in which you don’t want because you are giving power to it. Why focus on that which does not serve you, when you can be playing in the field of creative infinite consciousness, building your internal power? Would you not then begin to realize how incredible you truly are and how silly it was to think anything less than that? Life is a playground, and we are all here playing in the same realms of existence together. Knowing our power within allows for the funnest games, for real power is love of all that is.
