			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_472" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://kristopher-raphael.com/wp-content/uploads/dreams_default.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-472" title="dreams_default" src="http://kristopher-raphael.com/wp-content/uploads/dreams_default.jpg" alt="Living Your Dreams" width="300" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Living Your Dreams</p></div>
<p>There is a question that if you sincerely ask, and honestly answer yourself, will propel you onto to personal growth and spiritual faster than you can imagine. It will also powerfully activate The Law of Attraction. It is a question you should ask yourself every day. It is a question you should ask whenever you have a life challenge. Ask it and you will find that you already have the solution to any of life’s problems. Best of all, you will empower yourself to create the life of your dreams.</p>
<p>Before I give you the question, let me ask you a couple of other questions. When you dream at night, who is dreaming? Who creates your dreams? The answer is, of course, you do. You, or an aspect of the bigger self that you are creates your dreams, and you dream them.</p>
<p>Along the same lines, who creates your life? Who lives your life? The answer is the same. You do. You create your life and you are the person living it, no one else. When you are ready and willing to accept this truth, your entire life dramatically changes.</p>
<p>This first thing that changes is that suddenly you are empowered. If you are creating your life, life no longer happens to you. You make it happen. Perhaps you are not happy with everything in your life now. Knowing you are creating even those things you are not happy with, gives you the power to change what you create, and create something you will be happy with. After all, if life just happens to you, how can you change it? You can only change it if you create it. And, you do.</p>
<p>The second thing that happens when you realize that, just as you create your dreams you create your life, is you take responsibility for what you are creating. So often, people blame their life on other people, on circumstances out of their control. As soon as you do this, you have just given away your power to create the life you desire.</p>
<p>Blame is always self-destructive as is the anger that comes out of blame. In its extreme form, blame turns to rebellion which always harms self. Many people have more or less ruined their lives by blaming their parents and going into rebellion. They then project the blame onto bigger authorities such as society and/or government and ultimately end up dropping out of life and dis-empowering themselves.</p>
<p>This does not mean that you should not strive to improve the world you live in. You should. And, the best way to do this is to honor self and take responsibility for the world you are creating.</p>
<p>The third thing that happens is, because you are taking responsibility for the life you are creating, and because you are empowering yourself to more powerfully create that life, you begin to create the life of your dreams – a life full of love, abundance, well-being, with your deepest desires fulfilled.</p>
<p>So what is the most important question you must ask yourself every day? It is this. Ask yourself “Why am I creating this?” If you ask yourself this question, and honestly look at self, you will know. You will not only know why you are creating the situation or attracting the person or that kind of relationship, you will know what it is you need to shift in self to attract something better. You will have just empowered yourself to create the life of your dreams.</p>

<p>There comes a time in one&#8217;s life when you cherish every moment you are alive. The beauty of this state is that the more you cherish your life, the fuller it becomes. The more life you receive. Life is a gift and when you realize that fully, all of its beauty, abundance and love opens to you. Life supports you.</p>
<p>I am presently at an amazing chapter in my life. Everything that I could possibly desire on a deep level is here, right now. This morning I was taking a run along the country road that winds through the New Mexican high desert here in Santa Fe. It is June and the temperature is perfect. As I was running I could feel the warm, yet cool desert breeze on my face. Off to my right I was being serenaded by crickets chirping. The somewhat pungent scent of the desert plants was in the air. I felt alive and connected to that bigger part of Who I am.</p>

<p>A memory of a scene earlier in the morning came into my awareness. I had awakened to find a warm little body snuggled up against me. My three year old daughter had crawled inbetween my wife and I. I had my arm stretched across her, my hand holding the hand of my wife. I looked at the two angelic faces next to me as they dreamed. I remember feeling blessed with the love and beauty that surrounded me. It was a moment to cherish, a moment that I now realize set the tone of my day in the most exquisite way. What better way could there be to begin my day?</p>

<p><big><strong>Living Your Dreams</strong></big></p>
<p>A key to living your dreams is to be fully present in each moment of your life. And, in that moment consciously choose to be and express Who you are in all your authenticity. Who you are with a capital &#8216;W&#8217; desires to not only co-create your life with you the personality self, but desires to live your life hand in hand with you. When you allow ALL of you to be present in your life, you empower your dreams and they become manifest. Who you are knows and is already living your dreams. They are already manifesting in the world of energy. When you give full consent to the bigger Who that you are to come into your life, your dreams also come into form.</p>
<p><big><strong>It&#8217;s Always Your Choice</strong></big></p>
<p>It is always your choice. Who you are will not cross your line of will. You can choose to invite the bigger Self that you are into your life to co-live and co-create with you, or not.</p>
<p><big><strong>Life Supports You</strong></big></p>

<p>Sometimes we don&#8217;t realize just how much of our hopes, dreams and desires are actually right here in our lives. Too the degree you look at your life and cherish the things you have, life responds and supports you.</p>
<p>My wife Kalyn and I are living the life of our dreams. We have a loving relationship that deepens each day we are together. We are expanding our conscious business, doing what we love. We travel several times a year abroad, taking groups of wonderful people to explore the many incredible magical places there are. We teach, write in alignment with our Intent to help people grow, evolve and live a life full of love, abundance and connection. We are surrounded by no only our biological family but our &#8216;ohana (the Hawaian word for family), a loving surrogate family supporting each other in being all we can be. We are guided and supported in so many ways, both my seen and unseen friends.</p>
<p><big><strong>You Can Have It All</strong></big></p>
<div class="photo photo_right">
<div class="photo_img"><a href="http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs088.snc1/4624_1159334217453_1050719272_460734_494485_a.jpg"><img class="alignright" style="border: 1px solid black; margin: 2px 6px;" src="http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs088.snc1/4624_1159334217453_1050719272_460734_494485_a.jpg" alt="" width="180" height="270" /></a></div>
</div>
<p>Why am I telling you this? I want you to know that you too can have it all. Don&#8217;t let the illusion of mass consciousness tell you otherwise. It didn&#8217;t always appear this way in my life. There were times when I thought life was unfair, full of pain suffering, and just too much hard work with little reward. There were times when I was ready to throw in the towel and give up. Don&#8217;t do it. Begin by taking a walk, going on a run, or even a drive in the country, and find what you are thankful for in your life. Let the gratitude grow and thank your physical body, your emotional body and your mental body for all they have done to try to make life work for you. Be aware that you are not alone. You are never alone. There is so much help waiting for you if you were only to give consent and invite it in. Know that you are loved and always will be. There is nothing you can do in this lifetime to change that.</p>
<p>As you do so, you will come to know Who you are, that authentic part of you. Connect to it. Invite it in. Live your life from that place.As you do so you will see your hopes, dreams and desires take form in your life.</p>
