Be Extraordinary and Express the God in You

As children, unfortunately, we are taught to be like everyone else.  Walk in line, wear uniforms to school, sit in a single file row of desk at school, and follow the routine exactly.  Often times, it seems we were trained to be ordinary.  But as always, are we suppose to be ordinary?  Are we suppose to just spit out what is put in us in the same manner in which it was consumed?

I tell you friends of Blue Lotus Living, sometimes, ordinary just will not cut it.  There is a desire in all of us to be momentous, great, an inspiration to others.  The very idea of being something more than just your job title, your role as a parent, husband, wife, or friend is a desire that grows in us all as we mature and develop on the path of enlightenment.  This desire grows and yearns and we cannot deny it.  The more and more we deny it, the more we feel a disconnect with our true and authentic self.

We desire to be something more than ordinary and in fact some say it is our desire to be extraordinary—an accomplished person who knows how to manifest his or her dreams.  Such an extraordinary person that he or she thinks so far outside of the box, he or she cannot be contained. 

And as we study self-improvement, personal development, or even self-help, are we developing our extraordinary nature or are we doing the same thing we were taught in school—maintaining the status quo?  To make it quite simple, are we developing our unique expression of creativity as it flows through us?

So when we say self-help or self-improvement or personal development, we truly don’t give justice to what it is we are trying to accomplish when we study this field.  We are not just trying to help ourselves, we are not just trying to get money, and we are not just trying to find our soul mate.  We are not just trying to improve ourselves.  What we are attempting each time we try a self-improvement program or philosophy is to become extraordinary. 

Now those among us who are modest in personality will probably swear this isn’t true.  Then let me ask you a question:  Are you truly satisfied with the status quo?  Do you want to keep manifesting what you are manifesting now? 

So, when you say you want the ordinary and you want to be ordinary, you have just taking residence and citizenship in the state of denial.  First and foremost, as spiritual beings, we are divine and creative.  Each of us is a unique expression and manifestation of the Most High Creator—the All in All.  And because we are this expression, it is natural for us to want to express this uniqueness through ourselves. 

When we open ourselves to this uniqueness, we plug back into life, not the mundane and surely not the monotonous routine which is no life at all.  Our unique expression of creativity restores the wonder and adventure back to life because it is the soul being expressed as it reveals itself to the world.  And when your soul is being expressed to the world, the God in you is being expressed.

With this in mind, celebrate your uniqueness and reach for the extraordinary in you and express your soul to the world.  Because when you show and express your extraordinariness, you are letting others see, feel, realize, and be inspired by the God in you.
