Sin City
Mountain peaks reach the tip of the atmosphere
Sky lines of glory
Precious stones
Scorching summer breezes
Cool nightsLuminous lights
Constant chatter
Interchangeable space
There is more to Las Vegas…
I love this city but in all honesty she has done absolutely nothing for me and you know what; I never expected her to. I knew it was up to me, ya dig? It was by being here that I was pushed to grow, learn and remember who I am. Like everyone else, I forgot.
I was born in the city but raised in the country. I have experienced the best of both atmospheres. I have come to know the fastness of the metropolis pace and I have discovered how to appreciate the slow crawl of the countryside.
This town can never be duplicated. At the same time it is both city and what I will call confederate, both speedy and sluggish, both sophisticated and thuggish, both smooth and rugged.
So I had to send a shout out to the city of what we refer to as just Vegas. Leaving this place will allow me to prosper plenty but as I think back, there is nothing like Sin City.

Literary ThoughtWithin me
It has been said that real recognizes real but I don’t know if that is true because the Queen in me, you have failed to see
I walk in the Light, I am shining constantly and your eyes still refuse to seek inside of me
You decline to see who I am so that leads me to realize that you can not know who you are
The Source within me told me to recognize that you were a King and I listened with my heart
I have attempted time after time to allow my Truth to penetrate the darkness you are choosing to be
You continue to walk around with your eyes closed, ignoring what your soul has known since its beginning
The love within me is so great that, in space the stars and planets can see
I have such a yearn to give it to you but you don’t even love You so it is impossible for you to adore me
I am the Truth and I am the Light but since you neglect to see, you being within my destiny cannot continue to be.

We Can Remember...
We choose life because we want to learn who we are and who we have once been. We want to learn why we function the way we do and why we do not. We want to learn about others and the people that we love. We want to learn what our purpose is and why we were placed in the earth in the first place. So we spend our time in this reality searching for the answers; searching for clues that will guide us in knowing. We search for love, peace, trust, guidance. We search for pain, hate and fear. We search until we finally remember that we were not supposed to be searching. We remember that everything we were searching for is within us already. We remember that everything we thought we were missing was right in side of us all along. We remembered that God placed our treasures in the best hiding place ever, inside ourselves. But since we forgot, we looked away from us and we looked outside of us.
This point of remembering is a joyous feeling. The point of remembering is heaven on earth in every moment. We now remember that we do not have to fear. We now remember that we are love. We now remember that we are faith so therefore we always have it. All we have to do is remember what we have allowed ourselves to forget.
I remember much more than I did before. I remember that I am. I remember that I can breathe. I remember that this breath connects me with every single person in the Universe and therefore we are all One. I remember that I can see. I can see with my spiritual eyes and that allows me to look past my senses. I remember that I can feel. I can feel this Divine connection with me, my spirit and our Creator. I can close my eyes, breathe and feel this ultimate experience in this very moment. I remember that I can love. I can function in pure innocent love and in doing so I can heal. I can heal from every illusion. I remember that I can just be.
In this moment of remembering, at this very second I am filled with luminous light and glory as I am listening to Divine love, I am listening to Divine power, I am listening to Divine passion, I am listening with Divine understanding. I am listening with fearless faith. I am listening with zeal. I am quietly listening to pure spirit whispering in my ear telling me to just breathe. Telling me that I no longer have to worry. Telling me that I am the treasure within. Smiling at me. Waving at me. Embracing me. In this moment I am surrounded and encompassed by my own spirit’s love. In this moment I remember…

Between Me & You
Can I just be...
Is it ok if I just talk to you in lemans’ terms and use the words that I use everyday?
Must I think of all of those profound but complicated expressions when I sit down to pray?
Is it truth that I must close my eyes and that my head must be bowed in order for you to give me your attention on any given day?
Do I have to attend church services, belong to the choir and be one of the deacons for you to know that I am okay?
Must I read the Word on a daily basis and recite the verses verbatim for you to stay in the depths of my heart?
Wasn’t our relationship exempt from separation at the very start?
According to you must I dress a certain way and cover up the skin I am in?
Should I change my tone and modify my speech in order for your love to be within?
Is it fair that they say I can only love the one whom is opposite of me; that I cannot make love without experiencing matrimony?
Does all of this need to occur before you can shine your light on me?
Must I face east; confess 3 times a day and jump up and down when I praise for you to recognize that I love you the same?
They say that I must go through someone else to get to you; that I am not pure enough, not wise enough and that I must die first.
Is that true?
Is that what I must do for my soul to be soothed?
Do I live by their protocols, go by their guidelines and follow their rules in order for your love to flow within me?
Can’t I thrive in Your consciousness, change my name to I am and function in Your resourceful power in order to understand?
Can’t I remind them that I was made in Your image and that I am the author, the director, and the writer of this screenplay?
Can’t I exist in the wish fulfilled, create my own days, manifest my dreams and make my own realities; must I partake in their disillusioned misery?
Can’t I just be…Me?

L-O-V-E
Love – Living on varied emotions, that is what love means to him. I supposed he has experienced love that came and went without even saying goodbye. I am assuming that the kind of love that he may have experienced should have been called something else because I don’t believe that he truly knew what LOVE was until he remembered being with me.
Let me tell you what love means to me. Love to me means he is the only soul I see. My love for him goes beyond what the naked eye can see, when I say I love him; I mean I love him spiritually. We contain the kind of love that skips from one lifetime to another, the kind of love that breaks barriers and color lines, the kind of love that has no boundaries and no off limit signs.
I am not his mother but do I feel like I birthed him? Yes, for you see I conceived him with my thoughts, feelings and prayer. I meditated him into being. I made him into his existence. I made him with my mind and after that all I had to do was wait on Time. I molded him with my wants and desires. I formed his image with my perfect preference to make sure he would be forever admired.
Now I look into his eyes when he talks to my heart and I see me and the true love I have for he. I see my mental creation in full manifestation. I see the love that I generated with my contemplation. I listen to him as he soothes my spirit with his declaration of his love for me. I pay close attention to him when he clarifies that it is only me he sees. I observe him as he blesses me with his appreciation. I thank the God within for their participation.
As this life carries onto the next, I know without a doubt that we will continue to love each other unconditionally. I am love and I am loved and that is a Truth that I can see…

The days of my lost love have gone and again the love proceeds...It was good loving then but most importantly it is better loving me.
I will speak of a gentleman whose arrival seemed to be a mystery. But as I think about it, his entrance in to my atmosphere also feels like it was destined for me. At first I thought he appeared out of no where but I then had to remind myself that I told my subconscious mind that I wanted someone to care. I explained to the Universe within that I wanted to give unconditional love and I wasn’t worried about receiving end because I knew in my heart who and what the Divine would share. I knew then as I know now that whatever I am is what I will receive.
My silent prayers turned into thought, my thought turned into desire, my desire turned into feelings, my feeling turned into spiritual fruition and the Source within me turned in to Him.
He didn’t come in a great big present box wrapped up in a bow. Instead he presented himself with an aura that glowed.
He told me that I am the gold at the beginning of his soul.
He told me that I am the treasure at the foundation of a rainbow.
He told me that his love for my spirit he was desperate to show.
He told me that if I closed my eyes and connected with his feeling, the fear would be gone and I would no longer want to say, no.
He told me as he rubbed my feet that he was in God’s understanding and with the touch of his hands, he planted his seed.
He said that he knew the seed would grow into something that was meant to be.
He spoke of such sweet words that literally massaged my soul.
At first I was afraid, but now I don’t want to ever let him go.

Remember who I Am...
Remember who I am
I am the queen who reigned in the land of the Nile
I am the womb in which you evolved
I am the mother who raises your children
I am the heart with which you love
I am the woman who was made from your rib
I am the dust that created beauty
I am the mind that created time
I am the eyes with which you see
I am the blood that stores your genetic makeup
I am the Earth
I am the Moon
I am the Stars above
I am woman
Remember who I am

Suitable Cure
What will you do when the high no longer numbs you and it’s just you and your thoughts?
You say that you are strong and full of might but without that artificial fix, your mind just doesn’t feel right.
Your psyche tells you to do things that make you seem insane.
There are voices lingering in your head calling you by name.
What will you do when the substance doesn’t elevate you like it used to?
What will take place when that closet weakness that rules you is no longer subdued?
Will you give up living and permit the evils to reign?
What will you turn to when you can not withstand the hidden anguish and pain?
Have you ever considered going within to find a suitable cure?
Or is seeking inside of yourself too much for your soul to endure?
There is a Sourceful Bliss that might actually do you some good.
You look as if you need the help. I would assist you but only if I could.
For you must see that all that you seek is within you.
Once you surpass this illusion you shall be closer to finding You.
But it’s your life and your experience; don’t go by what I say is true.
I have found peace with me and it is reality that I will continue to pursue.
Basking in the Light is where I am.
But you seem to enjoy darkness and that is your choice so I understand.
You have been ok for this long so I will leave you be…I’ll go on my way and continue to do me.

"In Between Me & You"...Coming Soon
Words Of Wisdom...
In his opinion...
I Am...
I imagine, I dream, I create, and I participate.
I birth words of wisdom, fun, grief, and sometimes comedy.
I can generate and initiate any emotion within any literate individual.
I am an instigator, I am an actor, I am a producer and I am a director.
I am all-knowing; I am aware of the beginning and the end.
I am a visionary, I am an observer and I am a witness.
I am the judge and I am the jury; I am the decider.
The world cannot function and progress without me.
I have the ability to create anyones temporary reality.
For the moments you are stuck within my literal grasp, I am master of your mental tasks.
I dictate the twists and the turns.
I supply you with expressive churns
My words reach you within the deepest core.
I can show you the way or leave you torn
I am a thief, I steal time.
The Alpha, The Omega; That is who I am.
I contain the power within my hand.
I am a writer.

What my friendship will bring...
Infant Spirit
Looking out my window watching infant spirits play. Somehow and for some reason unknown, they manifested themselves into this time space reality. Running and playing without a care in the world. They are free. One of them thinks he can fly and he will if he doesn't believe them when they tell him that he cannot. He came here knowing everything. He knew what he wanted. He knew who he was. A little mind...so open, so fresh, so imaginative, so innovative. A small person of peace. A ray of light. What will he come to be? Will he allow the ways of the world to transform him? Stay close to You little one. Remain aligned with your inner being innocent angel. Please know the Divine. Don't let them rape and pillage the beauty of your mind. Be free, be power, be love, be light, be peace, be joy, be happy...Just be my sweet spirit, just be.

Love at first click...The Answer
Searching...What do we want from the person or people we are searching for exactly? We want someone who is what we are right? We want someone who treats us as we would treat them.
The question is: How do you treat You? We are looking for all of those qualities we list when asked what we are looking for in a mate, but are we all of those attributes to ourselves? Do you love You? Are you honest with You? Do you wine and dine You? Are we so empty to where we have to search outside of ourselves to get what we need? Are we truly at One with us?
Sit back and think about this...feel this. Are you ok with just You? Would you be happy if it was just You for the rest of this life? Let us reach for this completeness within. Let us be the substance that fills the void within. Let us be the love, let us be the light, let us be the joy, let us be the life,Let us be our everything....let us, just BE.
Much love, light and laughter

Just some thought...
The Source (God, the all knowing and all-loving Divine) will always take care of you and will always grant your every prayer.
What? I get everything I ask for? YES...but here is the key.
1) You have to be open to receive. How do you remain open? You must BELIEVE that you deserve to get what you are asking for.
2) Your thoughts, feelings and words have to always match. You can't say one thing and not truly feel it and expect to get what you desire. Your conscious mind must be married to your subconscious mind.
3) How do you feel about yourself? Do you not realize that you are God in human form and that you have every power that The Divine has. How can God be in you and of you and not be You? It is not possible for it not to be.
4) Are you meditating on a daily basis and affirming that you already have everything that you have asked for?
5) You must happen to life and not let life happen to you.
You are the author of this shindig. How do you want it to go? If you don't like how it's going, re-write your reality. It's yours, isn't it? If your car was messing up, wouldn't you take it to get it fixed? If you didn't like an outfit, after you bought it, wouldn't you take it back?
You control how your life goes...grab those horns and steer! Do you BELIEVE that everything you want is waiting for you? Your inner being (your spirit) is already where you (in human form) want to be...what are you doing to catch up with You?
Love,

Love at first click...The Question
"Whoever said being single was a great experience must have forgotten to take their crazy pill the day that they allowed such foolishness to seep beyond their lips." Tiffany...
The time of internet dating is not a period in which I desire to participate in, enjoy or even understand at this point. I have come to realize that experiencing anxiety and rushing to see if I have received any Myspace messages is not a good thing or anything to brag about for that matter. So as I thought about this, I began to write... It is quite pitiful how a feeling of rejection subsides within us when we don 't receive any friend requests. Have we just grown to be a people that measure our self worth according to how many people viewed our profile on a daily basis? We want to feel like with just one quick glimpse, someone's interest will be sparked and then they will feel a non-resistant urge to want to get to know us right? We want our technical presence to conquer their curiosity if only for a moment. But wait...we are still not satisfied because we see our "profile viewed" number soar but gosh why don't I have any messages? Did I say something wrong in the little boxes where I have spilled my whole life's story? Am I no one's type? These questions of what seems to be insecurity begin to fester and linger in our thoughts. We have some innate yearn to want to be noticed. We only just want to affect someone. We get lost in where other people's fingers guide them, trying to find love at first click...

Let it Flow
The world does not pause and wait for your sorrow to pass. Wipe those tears, turn that frown upside down and let the past pass away in the past. Let it transcend back to where it once was. Life goes on like it never occurred and you should do what it does. Does the sun cease to shine when the moon is a glow? It continues to be bright even in the night. It has to rain in order for your soul to grow. Will the story repeat its self? No one really knows. Love, laugh, and be the light; that is where your spirit wants you to go, not wondering and worrying about the unknown. Remind yourself all that life has shown.

THE TONGUE CAN BE YOUR WORST ENEMY!
The Mystery of Birth and the Illusion of Death
I existed before Genesis, chapter one, verse one; we all did. We were created when God began to think and who can say or prove when that took place because time does not exist with Spirit.
He, She, or It is eternal and ever so infinite. There is no beginning and therefore, there is no end. We subsisted in Gods all-knowing mind before we decided to manifest ourselves into this physical state of time-space reality. We have always thrived and we will continue to do so, in Spirit.
No scientist, mathematician, pastor, or politician can prove otherwise. No physical being can provide evidence when Spirit began and when God created us in His thoughts. The word beginning is certainly not definite enough to define His creation and therefore it cannot delineate ours.
Much love and constant peace,
Your sister in Spirit, Tiffany

Oneness...
Blind of all visual sight and purely functioning in heavenly spirituality, living the Christ- like experience of pure God consciousness, embracing and manifesting in the fact that every Being is at One in Gods mind and therefore we are all spiritually connected is the key. Going back to where we came from, traveling back in time when we were first created and thought of in Gods mind eye.
Yes, Jesus the Christ and master metaphysician, Muhammad, the neighbor across the street, the serial killer that is serving a physical term of life imprisonment, the child whom is hungry and you and I are Divinely One. There is no way we can get away from this truth.
Stripping ourselves of everything and every thought that we have allowed this physical manifestation to place on us and getting back to the pure God spiritual consciousness is how we can realize that we are all One in Spirit. Holding onto our likenesses and not our differences, accepting that each one of us is perfect where we are, judging not, and recognizing that we are the equivalent in Divine Mind will help us to experience the pure love that is beyond color, race, gender, creed, sexuality, all boundary, limitation and bondage.
When we permit ourselves to grasp on to this Universal Spiritual Love we can understand and voluntarily participate in the Oneness and therefore attain tranquility. This acceptance will bring upon a deep rooted healing beyond all human understanding, a soothing that only the Divine can assist us in manifesting into our current reality. This God Consciousness can bring peace, harmony, joy, and miraculous spiritual and physical expressions in our lives.
