I AM A Spiritual Warrior
By Cheryl F. Batoon
Today I felt inspired to write about who I AM. I AM A Spiritual Warrior. What does this mean exactly? This means that I am a Champion for the Truth and a Warrior for Spiritual Freedom. For me, to be a Spiritual Warrior means that I stand up for who I AM. I AM Love, I AM Peace, I AM Truth, I AM a Child of God, the Universe, and I AM here to stand up for the Truth, what is for the greater good of me and for everyone. That is what it means to me to be a Spiritual Warrior.
I believe that War is never ever necessary and yet you may wonder why I would call myself a Warrior which means to be one at and/or of War. I am not talking about War that causes harm to another soul, creature, and/or being. I am talking about the Spiritual Warfare that is going on within. This is the struggle that we have and are going through to rediscover our Authentic Selves. When you are at your best, you are your Authentic Self. Be a Warrior for the Freedom of Self and others, the Freedom of Love and Compassion, and to give and receive Love in ALL things. Finally, remember that you are Champions of the Truth.
Give, Serve, and Share your Truth always. Live by your Truth as if you are transparent to all around you and to everyone who sees you. With that, demand the Truth be given, served, and shared with YOU. YOU are deserving of the Truth in all things.
I ask each and every one of you to stay strong my Brothers and Sisters, stay strong. These are my thoughts and what I believe:
“We are destined for beauty and love, to live Heaven on Earth. We are to be balanced, both within and without, in ALL things. Even when we are giving or appear to be giving more of something in that moment, know that universal law always brings something back to you. It may be something small and maybe something you might overlook if you aren’t paying attention, but know that the Universe is balanced and what you put out will come back somehow, someway. There is no Karma, it is just quite simply Balance…”
“Remember that Love is a seed that has always lived within you. No one can ever take that away because no one has the power to take your love from your heart, it permanently resides there; freely given and freely received. With this wisdom, you know you are loved and you are love; therefore, release the need to struggle with this and surrender the pains, the wounds that have never served you. Let them heal once and for all. Release what no longer serves you and move forward as Champions of the Truth and Warrior for the Freedom of Self. You don’t need anything external to you that does not reside within you.”
“Truth Seekers and Speakers, our time is coming when the Truth shall open doors, windows will rise up before you, the human race will be more enlightened, and a collective consciousness will stand up to meet all with the glistening, glowing light of the Truth. The time for the Truth is upon us. We have little time left to ponder this for it is already here. The time now is to bring your Truth into every interaction with compassion and love for self and others always. This means to be your Authentic Self and know that you are a Warrior…you will always stand up for your Truth. A Spiritual Warrior stands up for the Truth, but always with compassion and unconditional love. Any other option will lead to difficulties and more struggles. Focus on the Truth, be diplomatic, be direct, be persistent, and know, live, and love your Truth always…You are the Champion of Truth and you are a Spiritual Warrior…”
Sending you all an abundance of love and blessings as you follow your life purpose and walk your path…be a Spiritual Warrior who has conquered negativity and remembered who you always were, a beautiful spirit who is loved and loves. You are who you always were, your Authentic Self. Don’t give up for paradise awaits us in this beautiful Universe created by God, our Higher Source, whatever that means to you personally…our true Heaven on Earth is here now, it is just a matter of seeing it…Peace & Love…

Sprinkling the Universal Dust (Poem)
By Cheryl F. Batoon
As I begin yet another day
I’m compelled to whisper to myself and say
Another day of the same daily grind
As I realize that it is all in my mind
For each day that begins for me
Is a day of bittersweet memories I see
Days of tremendous gains
But also of many losses and pains
I am focused on lifting myself up
Through the sadness and anger that fills up my cup
While my cup is overflowing with all this strife
I begin to realize that this isn’t truly my life
I begin to spend more time alone
To meditate and to recapture my tone
This is a tone that uplifts me and fills me with joy
A melodic tone that chimes like a child’s toy
I lift myself up with a knowing
that the child-like essence of my very soul
is who I really am…my Authentic Self
Yes indeed, this is me…no more strife, no more toll…
I pick up my Crystal Bowl and rap on the side
And as I do, I realize this tone will always reside
Deep in my soul it resonates and I trust
The sprinkling of God’s Universal Dust
I Love Me, I trust in Me, I AM ME…
“God’s Child in Oneness with the Universe”

I felt inspired to write about a very sensitive topic, Unconditional Love and Needs. Needs mean different things to different people. We have all been trained on needing rather than desiring and knowing. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs was the training ground for many of us…we were trained on “Being Needy”…
Yes there are basic survival needs and yes there is a purpose for needs; however, the operative word is survival. Humans need food, water, and some shelter/clothing. Humans are also known to thrive with the human touch; however, this doesn’t explain those who thrive without human contact. They are content with nature and animals. So is human touch truly a need? I believe it is a desire, a want, a longing…
Many of us have a longing for the other half of us, a desire for our true love. There are those who have already found their other half; however, for those who have not, this is a longing for a part of you. Remember that longing for your true love is not the same as needing. This longing is at the heart level and includes the desire to hold and touch another human for it is in human form that we are able to truly touch one another. We long for this, but that isn’t the same as need.
Let’s break down the progression of needs in our life. When we were born, we learned how to obtain our basic needs by crying and demanding it. As we grew, we learned that by utilizing the same tactics we could obtain more than just our basic needs. We could also obtain what we desired and wanted; therefore, we focused our attention and actions on whining, crying, begging, manipulating, etc. to obtain what we wanted and desired. There were times that we realized that what we needed was unattainable; therefore, we became fearful of not receiving what we needed in the future. We became obsessed with that need and were filled with worry and fear. All a vicious cycle that takes us round and round with what we feel we need instead of what we truly desire and want.
Remember that desires and wants manifest when we truly stop needing them.
As we grow and thrive in a needy environment, we begin to see how we have expectations in all our interactions with others. We walk into our relationships already predicting the outcome and a bit insecure in the outtake because we have such a strong need for this relationship. Because of this strong need, we end up sabotaging it because we find what is lacking rather than what is abundant.
What creates neediness? Insecurity is the foundation for neediness. What fuels insecurity? Low self-esteem, doubts, distrust, suspicion, to the point that you manifest that very thing you were insecure about into your reality.
We experience insecurity within our families and friendships for we feel we will never be loved or cared for enough. We may feel that we are not receiving enough attention. We feel that we are unappreciated. Bottom line, we have conditions on the very thing we need.
We feel insecure in our romantic relationships when our love is fueled by need. When we have expectations on our mate that goes beyond the basic desire and knowing that we have a mate that is balanced within our relationship, we are placing conditions. We are placing expectations on our mate to be what we want instead of accepting our mate for who they are. We decide who and what our mate should be and with that, we need our mate to be that or our relationships fail…sometimes before the relationship has even left the gate!
Begin with loving you first for with love and acceptance of self, we are then able to love ourselves unconditionally. With that, we release the need. By releasing the need, we release fear and worry…all unnecessary for true love and all very distracting to the ability to grow and thrive in romantic relationships.
How do we release the need to need?
Release the fear and worry for there is nothing to fear except fear itself. Sometimes we confuse our fear and worry with our needs and we confuse our needs with our fear and worry because they are all the same…To need is to fear the loss of…when we need someone in our life so badly, we are imagining them as gone or we fear losing them. In this instance, we are focused on loss instead of abundance. We are not focused on our blessings which is the fact we have this beautiful relationship in our life in the first place. Are we grateful? Do we even see the blessings before us?
Release the fear of being alone. We fear being alone so we cling to family, friends, and/or significant others…again, needy. We do this because we have a fear of being alone. Why is that?
Love you – spend time looking in the mirror at you and really get to know yourself. Love you and know that you are a powerful being of God. As long as there are people in this world, you will never be alone unless you choose to. You are never alone in the spiritual realm. Love you for God, the Universe, loves you. If you don’t love something about yourself, change it…it is a choice, but always, always love you…
Once you have released the need to need, the fear of being alone, and have remembered how very unique you are, how very deserving of love that you are, you will begin to see the real you. You will see how very beautiful, intelligent, sharp, inspiring, giving, and sharing that you are. Love you.
Right now, begin to love life again and stop feeling that you need another. I struggle with this as well and it isn’t an easy task, but with patience and persistence, we will learn that needing anyone or anything is not the key to a wondrous life. It begins with loving you. Releasing the need, the ego’s desire, you are then able to embrace, accept, and receive your heart’s desire, your true abundance.
So be careful what you feel you need. Love you most of all for with unconditional love for self you will see that you no longer feel needy and you are now open and receptive to all that God, the Universe has for you. Focus on what you want not what you don’t want…
Much blessings to you as you go through life learning and growing; forever students achieving a life free of needing; yet abundant in desire and with a knowing that all you deserve, all you have ever wanted, God is bringing to you in this very now moment…Peace & Love

A Beautiful Red Rose to thank all of you for your time and support with my writings…Love Always, Cheryl
I wanted to spend a moment to thank all my readers for spending time reading through all my blog postings. I now have quite a few since February 2009. If you all have time to read some of my older postings, please do so. This is a series of writings on Unconditional Love and our Passions which are all very important to me.
Now I am asking the Universe to provide me with opportunities to share my writings and inspirational words with others all over the world in all languages. Not sure how this will all come about, but by throwing my thoughts out to the Universe, I am desiring expansion of my writings to share with the entire world for all who will benefit by the words that have came through me from God, our Creator Source, which we all know that is how all beautiful things are developed, through God, or whatever your Creator Source is…for I judge no one and how they believe or feel for it is your truth. We are truly ALL ONE!!!
If you love my writings and want to know more about me, please send me an email at mena2u46@yahoo.com. In addition, I am in the process of finishing my fictional novel, “My Four-Cornered Room” which I expect to have completed before the end of summer. A lot to do still even though I am on the last 1/4 of the draft with the final chapters of the book, there is more work after to re-review, fine-tune, add in some additional pieces from input through my partners and finally, I will have this great spiritual masterpiece completed. I am hoping to prosper from the movie and attention driven by the book to survive, but my primary and number one purpose is to spread inspirational, positive, loving messages with all.
Thank you again my readers for I appreciate your support, love, and blessings. May you all have a great week giving, serving, and sharing with unconditional love as you receive the abundance that you desire and deserve so much…LOVE and PEACE…

God created all of us billions of years ago and when we were created, we were created as a spirit of ONE that was split apart into two with both masculine and feminine energies to carry the FLAME into this world and to live in a 3rd dimensional reality as you all may be aware.
In the division into two, we have lived many lives searching for our other half and in the process we have experienced many lifetimes of triumph and glory, as well as, sadness and despair; however, with each life we became stronger and stronger and experienced different life relationships with our other half. In those relationships, we begin to learn what unconditional love was truly about. We shared this rediscovered love with many, many soulmates, but in each and every instance, we have always had a true “longing” for our other half…”The ONE”.
I was inspired to write about this today for once you meet your ”ONE” , life is never the same. For after that moment, you rediscover your “glow” or your “essence” if you will…never to lose that feeling no matter where your travels may take you after that first meeting. You all may have found “The ONE” and are bound in marriage or in a relationship with your “ONE” right now. If this is the case for you, REJOICE in all things for you have found your other half. With the strength and power that illuminates from the light, or the FLAME, that reignites your heart, you will have a “knowing” that you and your other half are here for a PURPOSE…a LIFE PURPOSE.
At this stage of your life purpose, you will rediscover that you both are here to serve humanity for with the bright light that emanates from the true Twin Flames, you will follow a path of service to humanity in ALL things! God will guide you in this service by the Universe’s powerful protection, love, and light to illuminate the path before you…
If you haven’t yet discovered your other half, your “The ONE” , you will or you may have already rediscovered your other half in a relationship that may have been a loss of that partner at some point. If this is the case, you have been serving your life purpose with the consistent support and love from your Twin Flame as he/she guides you, protects you, and assists you down your life path to achieve the purpose of serving humanity. If you have never experienced this, yet have a strong longing in your heart, it is just a matter of determining your passion and life purpose now to ignite the FLAME and bring your Twin Flame to you if that is what is destined for you. The only way to truly know if this is what is destined for you is to meditate, to pray, to ask God, to ask the Universe to assist you with preparing for this relationship or to bring a soul or souls to you to assist you on your journey. With FAITH and TRUST, as well as, BELIEF in God and the Universe, all will come to pass…
As we continue down our life path, KNOW and TRUST that all will come in perfect timing…
With Love and Blessings on this day and every day as you continue down your path in completion with your ONE!!!
