There is something glorious about a person letting themselves out and letting their natural expression flow. In fact, could our true expression be our superpower? It is powerfully inspiring to see true expression in action. What follows here are but a few of the many examples of people bringing themselves to the things they do that have inspired me of late.
Recently I witnessed a classroom of Grade 2 students ignite as their teacher brought all her natural spunk, joy and wisdom to the act of teaching their lesson. The age-old task of teaching became pure poetry in motion when combined with the unique expression that this teacher brought to her work.
I know a guy who spent an hour teaching me how to use my Mac laptop… and what an hour it was. This man is style, delicateness, strength and wisdom rolled into one – oh, and he brings the fun and joy wherever he goes.
I know what you’re thinking – delicateness and strength existing together, really? Yes, in this man they do (and in truth in all men). How could I but learn what he had to share about computer use when he shared all of his gorgeousness first?
Have you watched children as they download their imaginations onto paper with textas and crayons – imbuing the paper with their natural confidence in what they have to share? That is a lesson right there for every adult who has ever felt pressure to perform, to get it right, or do it perfectly within their work.
Would you think that the key to the tastiest, creamiest guacamole was order, stillness and precision? I know a lady who brings these three qualities to her cooking and her guacamole is unmatched. I know a man who captures the true essence of his subject as a photographer and anchors it with his own stillness… and somehow you can feel the sparkle in this man’s eyes coming through his pictures.
I know a guy who brings his innate tenderness and care to the art of teaching swimming… and I’ve seen reputedly ‘tough’ and ‘difficult’ children melt when he shares this with them. I once attended a healthy eating workshop where the presenter was an exquisite mixture of sexy, sassy and one of the ‘realest’ people I’ve met. It was pure delight to learn about eating for your body from someone who so openly celebrated her own body.
I know a woman who is grace in human form. When she walks, talks, waves, sits, stands, you name it, it is like she leaves a trail of pure grace in her wake. And when she smiles… wowzers!! It’s double strength. In truth, all women have this grace even if it is buried deep, deep within. Just by being in the world, this woman is reminding other women that they too have a natural grace, while schooling them in how to live it.
Have you ever wondered what it is to be a powerful woman, in truth? There are many interpretations and conflicting understandings of what it is to be a strong, powerful woman… but I know a woman who answers this question and then some.
From this woman I have learnt that a woman’s true power is in her presence and living her amazingness on the outside – no tongue stud, motorbike, taekwondo black belt or boring black pantsuit in sight; these are just not needed when a woman knows who she is and is prepared to let the world see.
I know two brothers who know joy. These guys could go all day pouring their spunk and wit into their expression. It is in the tone of their voices, the words they speak, the smiles that transform their faces, their utterly spectacular laughs that hit you straight in the heart. It is achingly beautiful to watch these guys in action and when they share this with you along with their innate gorgeousness, you are gone… These guys are kryptonite to the most hardened heart – a true superpower!
I have met a woman who knows love so deeply that when she smiles you see all the grandness of the universe in her eyes.
I know a woman who is sassiness incarnate! Couple this with an endless capacity for fun and a laugh so glorious that hearing it ignites the joy buried in the deepest recesses of your heart… and you’ve got heaven walking on earth: a gift to all who know her.
People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.
When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same. The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!
Serge Benhayon is another man who imbues all he does with his true expression. Because this man has been prepared to share his wisdom, spunk, wit, deep care, unshakable knowing of truth, alignment to purpose – and I could go on all day – with the world, thousands of people worldwide have now been inspired to unlock their own true expression.
One workshop, one conversation – heck, one pass of this man in the hallway is enough inspiration to transform lives and see miracles happen… and for many, many people, this is exactly what seeing Serge in his full glory has led to.

I love your deep appreciation of all you meet Kathryn, and how meeting someone who absolutely lives who they are is just the spark many need to begin to do the same. The magic of the ripple affect made manifest by those touched by the life and way of Serge Benhayon.
The transformation in understanding of life offered by Serge Benhayon cannot be underestimated or under valued. It is simply exquisite.
When we bring focus back to expressing our true qualities everything in life gets taken care of. Although if we abandon our true qualities it may still look like we are living the same life but our experience (and for those around us) will be completely different.
We inspire others by living our qualities in full, ‘In truth, all women have this grace even if it is buried deep, deep within. Just by being in the world, this woman is reminding other women that they too have a natural grace, while schooling them in how to live it.’
You are blessed to know all of these amazing people, and to recognise and appreciate all their wonderful qualities, what a joy.
Kathryn it didn’t take long before I had a big grin on my face which stayed right until the end of reading this blog. It was apparent to feel how joyful you are and your appreciation of others is tangible and infectious.
Well said Suse, if a gift that keeps on giving as our reflection becomes like a ripple.
What I can feel in this Kate in the connection these people have with themselves and in this the appreciation of all they are. When appreciation for all we are is felt, we can’t help but share it, it’s to good to keep to ourselves.
You have a gorgeous way of expressing and appreciating people’s quality Kathryn. The less we focus on what we do the more space we have to focus on who we are – which effects everything we do anyway! It’s a win win situation.
I simply love to come back to your expression Kathryn. Super beautiful.
So gorgeous to feel your joy in appreciating all these amazing people in your life. I can feel the magic is in your ability to recognise and appreciate, and it is not that you are ‘lucky’ to know these people. The superpower is within us all, and by claiming that in our expression and letting others see, we offer each other permission to do the same.
“In truth, all women have this grace even if it is buried deep, deep within. Just by being in the world, this woman is reminding other women that they too have a natural grace, while schooling them in how to live it.” I too have been inspired by some women and men like those you mention – then we in our turn can inspire others with our reflection. We all have ‘superpowers’ that tho long-buried, can be revealed once again. Our choice.
‘Superpowers’? Absolutely agreed. Unlock and let everyone into the beauty of who we are, drop those chains that would have us walking about as less than being A-MAZ-ING… and there we are – a world full of superheroes, blessing each other with a radiance that cannot but inspire, and changing the very foundation upon which we stand to be one of God’s Love and Truth.
Bring it on Kathryn Maroney, I already have my cape and boots ready and in action…
Kathryn Maroney, clearly one of your great gifts in expression yourself, is to appreciate the gold you see and receive from others with not one iota of holding back!
This is a rarity in this world indeed – for our harbouring of comparison, jealousy and attendant lack of worth prevents most from sharing with such absolute and true openness in appreciation.
THANK-YOU for the great inspiration of connecting with this in you, and your every word here. More please – and also, write one about yourself dear lady… (if I may be so bold?)
It’s such a powerful reflection to see someone completely at ease with being themselves in all that they do and not holding it back – it inspires us all to let go of pictures of who we think we need to be or how we think we need to act, and just simply be ourselves, without an ounce of trying or perfection.
‘When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.’ The awesome power of reflection which truly has the power to change the world.
Glorious celebration of the power that we all have to inspire others when we truly express without holding back in any way. Perfect for me to read this morning when I am feeling fragile because of a clearing in my body with an underlying anxiety due to an important meeting I am attending later. Thank you for the reminder that all that is required is for me to go and be myself without any investment in the outcome.
There is something so real and just infectious about people who are just simply themselves, and not afraid to show it, and I love your celebration of the fact Kathryn. It just lights up my day when I see people just being themselves and loving it and I feel an incredible joy in me and I feel part of something bigger than myself – I feel my own amazingness reflected back to me from another and that is special for us all. So the more we are us the more we inspire others to be themselves too.
It seems we have built the world another way and it’s almost opposite in the way it is. We don’t support ourselves or each other in truly expressing what is there and more encourage a take on of many other things with notable exceptions. There is always a thought or a saying there to discourage you to from actually following what you are feeling and if you’re not aware these things will knock you off or out of what is a very natural flow. The only reason it’s not there for us on tap is because we haven’t tapped it enough or appreciated it fully. I can say appreciating other and yourself supports and this is true while also we need a consistent action to it. Like everything if you only do it now and then or as a one off then you will sense the difference but nothing will truly change. What is change as well, do we also look at it as a one off or a job done or do we see it again as a living thing that may ‘change’ at any minute. I can still feel a start stop in me and not an endless flow to unlocking more and more of a “true expression”. It is all just there while equally we have covered it with many things and so in the truth of it all, we will need to walk back to uncover what we once covered.
A few years ago I would never thought that “delicateness and strength” could possibly go together in a sentence, especially in a sentence that was describing a man; how could a man be delicate and strong at the same time? But today my understanding of these words and my understanding of the true essence of a man has deepened to such a level that I know without a doubt that they do belong in the same sentence when you are describing a man who has re-connected to the truth of who he is; tender, sensitive, delicate and yes, strong.
Kathryn, this is sooooo spot on! “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same. The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!”
Kathryn amazing what you have shared, by just being you brings the magic of God in the all with the power of divine love in everything the true power in the glorious expression
Gorgeous appreciation Kathryn of the power we all hold within to light up the world with the love we are within, through simply being who we are and letting our magnificence shine out.
What a beautiful post – I loved re-reading it. “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” Transparency offers us all so much – and the world could then change.
Thank you Kate, your exuberant celebration of everyone comes with a delightful sense of childlike wonder. Life is so rich when everyone shines, the tall poppy syndrome of cutting others down harms everyone. It’s better to be inspired and unleash our own true selves!
Great sharing Kathryn, I particularly picked up on this point ‘Have you ever wondered what it is to be a powerful woman, in truth? There are many interpretations and conflicting understandings of what it is to be a strong, powerful woman…’. We are so often led to believe that strong powerful women are those who have hundreds of friends, are successful in their careers, very beautiful and an equal match to men in the work place. It was not until I met the Benhayon family, that I truly started to understand what it meant to be a powerful woman, one who knows and loves herself, is open and honest, says things as they are, and making life about truth and love.
A number of years ago I wouldn’t have even understood really what ‘True Expression’ was, I thought expression and communication were one and the same. I have come to understand that is not the case and what it really means. It is forever unfolding and carries a responsibility. One I have resisted at times, but also know that each and every day it is a constant checking in and making honouring and loving choices in that expression with self and others.
It is like an infection! We see it, we experience it, we feel it and we are forever changed because there is lightness of being that needs to be lived on this planet. We need to love, truly love again and it starts by remembering we are first and foremost made from that love ourselves.
A beautiful appreciation of the innate love and power within us all just waiting to be expressed.
I am finding that it is only when I am expressing all of me in any given moment that I feel true contentment within and when I do it feels like heaven on earth.
There is such love and appreciation in your insights Kathryn. It is awe inspiring to feel the outpouring of love you have for others and what you are feeling in your uniqueness, I particularly felt this, “The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change! Thank you for sharing the key to true power.
True super power is being ourselves how inspiring and true if we only knew it. A deeply inspiring reflection and sharing thank you. ‘People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.’
Kate, it’s pure joy to read this and feel your celebration of others sharing them with the world. It’s not what you do but it’s that feeling of someone just having fun being them and bringing that to everything – it’s magic and so inspiring you cannot but smile!
I love this blog as what it shows to me is that when we allow ourselves to express that what lives in our inner most, our Soul, we bless the world with a love that is from heaven.
Only our true expression can change the world as the world we live in is an outer reflection of how we all behave and express ourselves. Are you ready to honestly look at this reality and make the choice to give your unique expression the freedom to be there in everything you are?
True expression requires that we value ourselves, the quality we bring, and we know we all on this planet are needed in our full expression. This is the Way of the Livingness.
This is such a beautiful blog Kathryn, you make the point that all of us being ourselves, truly, is all we need to do to bring love to everyone. It is inspiring – I especially loved your paragraph on women and grace :”I know a woman who is grace in human form. When she walks, talks, waves, sits, stands, you name it, it is like she leaves a trail of pure grace in her wake. And when she smiles… wowzers!! It’s double strength. In truth, all women have this grace even if it is buried deep, deep within. Just by being in the world, this woman is reminding other women that they too have a natural grace, while schooling them in how to live it.”
Kathryn, beautiful to read, and it reminds me of when I was a child and used to dream of having super powers but in fact I do, to share me in the world. And per the examples you give when you meet someone in their flow, it’s pure poetry in motion and is such a joy to see. And to know that us being us gives others the permission to be them, this is something I feel and often ignore, and do not always claim in the way I can.
yes there is so much presented to us in the world of fantasy and science fiction films that it has almost become embedded in our society and yet within all of us is the divine spark that when rekindled brings a perspective that is far greater than what anything in any film can be.
I’d take being ‘Expression Woman’ over Wonder Woman any day of the week. Our expression contains a power far beyond a magic lasso or fighting prowess! The power of a woman who expresses in full is undeniable – Natalie Benhayon and Simone Benhayon being two cases in point that I know of.
Thank you Kathryn for writing this blog of appreciation and inspiration, living in expression of or inner qualities is what is needed in this world. What you write is inspiring me to feel the incredible beautiful man I am and can bring to this world.
Kathryn, I also love the appreciation you have brought to the observations you share in this blog. It feels like expression and appreciation goes hand in hand – we need to appreciate what we and each of us bring. And I’m appreciating your own beautiful expression!
A beautiful expression Kathryn! So inspirational and joyfully shared! A truly uplifting sharing that I will take much away from!
As Serge Benhayon has presented “Expression is everything” and this glorious celebration of the people you have witnessed Kathryn brings this principle well and truly to life.
“People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure”
So true Kathryn, we totally underestimate this power, which is the ‘secret’ to true success, meaning good income, great relationships, a vital and healthy body and treating each other as equal. And I agree Serge Benhayon is the most amazing role model for this, inspiring thousands to be the same.
Kathryn the joy and simplicity you bring to knowing our super power and how simple this is, is beautiful to read and know. Everything you share is pure gold and I love it all. ‘People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world.’
‘People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear’. What a gorgeous reminder that all I have to do is express my truth, and be fully present in every step I take.
Wow, I love this Kathryn, thank you for this vibrant piece of celebrating our beauty.
I love this – that we are all Clark Kent with our own superpower. Perhaps that is why this comic has had such profound impact on the world… founded on truth and integrity our natural expression has the ability to change the world!
I know that from experience as when I try to copy someone’s way of being or way of expression I do end up in complication, lack of self worth and a huge dose of seriousness because I was not able to express that what is living in me compared when I live from from my inner heart and life in joy and playfulness.
It’s too easy to complicate life, this blog is a reminder to me of how simple life is when we just celebrate, live and express who we are. Very inspiring to read your true appreciation of everyone around you.
Our true superpower is not our invisibility but rather our transparency, our ability to let others see us for all that we are including of our qualities and strengths as equally as our imperfections.
Our true power comes from us connecting to our bodies and the potential that lays within them and expressing it through our every move as it is this reflection that ignites the same on others.
I agree Francisco, and our reflections are powerful when we live simply and express from our whole body, which then gives silent permission to others to do the same.
‘When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear’. If we allowed ourselves to simply be ourselves and all our moves, actions and words were loving, the world that we have created around us would literally and lovingly transform right before our eyes.
Communicating and expressing from our heart it is definitely our superpower. Great blog Kathryn.
Simply letting the world see who we truly are, as we start to understand who we truly are, and let go of the shields and defences, then this is empowering for everyone, all those around us and ourselves.
I couldn’t agree with you more Kathryn, that true expression is definitely our super power. When we truly take responsibility for what is there to be shared, from our own lived wisdom, then expressing that, it is a blessing for all involved.
“When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same”, then they will be able to show someone else, and so the ripple effect flows on and with it the world slowly and inexorably begins to change. Our “true expression” is not only “our super power” but also our responsibility.
I love what this blog brings – a demonstration that we all have something special that is innately ours and that when we choose to share it widely, not keep it for ourselves and certain earmarked or categorised people, then that can inspire others in ways we’d never imagine, to be more confident and comfortable in revealing their own qualities to the world. Everyone benefits when we express who we truly are. It’s brings a ripple effect with exponential results.
‘Have you watched children as they download their imaginations onto paper with textas and crayons – imbuing the paper with their natural confidence in what they have to share? That is a lesson right there for every adult who has ever felt pressure to perform, to get it right, or do it perfectly within their work.’ I have read your blog more than once and felt the joy in your expression. This time this paragraph was really jumping out of the page, it brought back the memory of just starting to work on something, no doubt coming in, just purpose and a natural way of expressing. A true marker to come back to, especially the naturalness of expressing simply me.
There is indeed something glorious about people being themselves and letting their innate wisdom and expression out; it is beautiful to see, appreciate and be inspired by.
Thank you Kathryn for sharing your experiences and wisdom.
Allowing everyone to see who we are in full expression of our soul. That is the true superpower we all hold.
Thank you Kathryn, I loved reading your blog, about all the beautiful qualities you have felt, seen and heard, in those people who are not ashamed to let the real person be seen. “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!
We are forever being bombarded with what and how a woman ‘should’ be but there is nothing more natural and powerful than when a woman is present and with herself and I am forever grateful and inspired by Universal Medicine for offering me another way which continues to develop in my livingness to be and live as the woman I know I truly am.
I used to think that being hard and in protection was a sign of strength and that doing things independently and not asking for help was also a sign that I could manage without the need from anyone and that this was a good thing. I also thought that showing my vulnerability and crying was also a sign of weakness. This way of being I have come to know is far, far from the truth of who I am in that showing my vulnerability and asking for help are indeed natural strengths that I do not have to hide anymore. There is nothing more powerful than when I express how I am feeling openly and honestly in any given moment and this is something that is becoming a normal thing to do in my day.
Thank you Kathryn this blog is beautiful to re-visit and be inspired that true expression really is our superpower. I especially love the way you appreciate and celebrate the people you know for the qualities they bring – a lovely reminder for me to deeply appreciate the amazing people I have in my life too.
That’s the truth Alexandra Plane, we need only be our true selves to change the world.
Huzzah !! yes indeed.. with the fixation of humanity upon the myth and fantasy of super-heroes, when one walks in our midst it is a different story. Serge Benhayon brings grace and dignity and ageless wisdom to us all, empowering all who choose to simply listen to him, and he is here to reflect that extraordinariness that is within us all
‘When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same”. Thanks Kathrine for an awesome article
Absolutely Joe, revealing our true selves to another, most definitely reflects themselves back to them, how awesome is that?
Thank YOU Kathrine Maroney. I’ve read this blog before but two things really stood out today: YOUR JOY and LOVE for people and YOUR ability to see who people really are. Thank YOU.
Wonderful Kathryn this sentences is a true and pure invitation for me: “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” Thank you so much that you are not holding back your way of expression.
Such a joy to re read your blog Kathryn, I couldn’t resist reading it again. Since first reading your blog some time ago I have been exploring letting my expression out more and more and letting people see the real me and yes, you are right, it is fun and joy-full and people are inspired too to be all of who they are. It’s a win win when we are being all of ourselves in all that we do.
What a great joy it is for me to read about a teacher igniting their young grade 2 students;
What a divine blessing for the students and the teacher; how very inspirational.
“Recently I witnessed a classroom of Grade 2 students ignite as their teacher brought all her natural spunk, joy and wisdom to the act of teaching their lesson. The age-old task of teaching became pure poetry in motion when combined with the unique expression that this teacher brought to her work.”
Thanks Kathryn, i really felt how my expression in my work and everyday living can really expand and i get the sense of how i can deepen this connection with myself and bring it to humanity
Letting our love out, letting the world in, and connecting to the amazingness we are = the recipe for a joy-full way of living and our true expression.
Ingrid I simply love your elegant equation!
Kathryn this sharing is beautiful, inspiring and thought provoking.. To just let go of the way society sees us and know that the real me is much more than that which would be a natural flow on to the way we are in the world. Just being, and free of restriction and doubt. I agree that there are s many wonderful examples in Universal Medicine and especially Serge Benhayon himself.
The feeling I get from expressing from truth is a new re-experience that had gotten lost somewhere in the years.
I have had an enormous expansion in expression- I was totally suppressed from childhood, until I began to understand that registering what I really felt was important, that I was allowed to then say what I felt. I had felt very constrained by being ‘nice’ and doing what was expected for so long that I simply didn’t express my truth. When I was talking about how I felt, I had often gone head first into reaction, and then was speaking from that, rather than from how I felt. There was a lot of rehab to do, so to speak, but finding my voice slowly has been well worth the effort. It empowers me to consider that my feelings are worth expressing, because I deserve to have a voice.
Holding our expression in truth is huge Kathryn as you describe, it makes a change to all around us. It is simple to live in this grace with everything we are and everything we do, simply walking, talking and being. I am learning how when we change, everyone around us has no choice but to change too.
I love this blog Kathryn. Just the title alone expresses the strength and power we all have. And to read how each one of us, when we let oursevles out, ignites the world with love, truth, beauty, joy, stillness.
A beautiful blog Kathryn showing and appreciating how amazingly gorgeous and unique we are when we express ourselves in full, ‘People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.’
Men are delicately powerful when we are in our essence. There is such a beautiful contrast between the two qualities, yet they go so well together. Then again, it can get top heavy when we try and over express the strength, thwarting the sweetness of being delicate.
It is so beautiful to feel others in their natural flow of expressing. Its easy and literally just flows and is very pleasing to the ear and certainly keeps your attention. Letting in the complexity of the mind getting in the way with ‘what if’s’ then, up pops complication and for myself in the past I’ve then held back. Your sharing Kathryn highlights so clearly the ‘superpower’ that is within us all, we only have to be ‘all’ of who we are and express from that amazing place.
I love the simplicity of true expression through its natural presence. The master I have met of true expression is Serge Benhayon. I was in his presence packing a large van. It was a big job ordering it with precision and fitting everything exactly where it needed to go with little or no space left over. I was completed when Serge came along and balanced some more books. The quality of presence that emanated through his movement of absolute care and delicate expression was awe-inspiring. The whole universe aligned through his expression. It has not left me and is a marker I feel to live myself. True expression is everything.
Thank you Rik for this beautiful example of being inspired by Serge Benhayon. I love this: ‘The quality of presence that emanated through his movement of absolute care and delicate expression was awe-inspiring.’ Such a great marker of what expression really is about.
I love how you have explained that the computer tutor shared his true unimposing gorgeousness first, so then you could easily take in what he had to say. What a fore runner of the way so many will approach their professional careers and interactions with people in years to come.
This is a great blog Kathryn, it is confirming that with all our different expressions we can change the world, sharing and expressing all that we are is our true superpower.
“One workshop, one conversation – heck, one pass of this man in the hallway is enough inspiration to transform lives and see miracles happen… and for many, many people, this is exactly what seeing Serge in his full glory has led to.” Yes, yes so true. I have been one of these people and witnessed loads of other people transform their lives too from this inspiration of Serge and all the other people referred to in the blog. An amazing fun and appreciative sharing – thank you!
‘a woman’s true power is in her presence and living her amazingness on the outside’ and ‘who knows who she is and is prepared to let the world see’ I love these words – they make it all so simple – no more the hard, trying to fit the image of a powerful woman, but simply being all of who she is.
You raise a great topic here, Kathryn, and during reading your blog the remebrance comes back from school getting marks for my expression. I realize how I often still express with this feeling of unease in my body. How different it is to be able to express like a child before it is narrowed down by school.
It feels like true expression is a powerful medicine that we can all prescribe ourselves each moment of each day. Wow! And that would be medicine for the whole entire world with all those beautiful expressions!
This is so true Amita, a women’s true power is in her presence and living who she is. Without the hardness, the protection or needing to put on a front for others. This is our natural way and we all have our unique expression in that.
Wow I feel so inspired to claim my true expression after reading this stupendous blog. It is perfect for helping me see that my fullness is not a luxury it’s a necessity for my relationships with others. I am so onto it! Thanks Kate.
“People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure”. I agree Kathryn and the great thing about it is that you need nothing to do it with except be yourself.
So true, we simply need to be ourselves, yet so many of us are deeply conditoned away from being ourselves and for being what others need us to be, it’s not exactly easy to switch it back on at first. It does take time for some of us, but the rewards are so worthwhile, for us and for others who cross our path.
Yes it is free and no equipment needed. Looking at it like that it is crazy that everyone does not bring their super power expression to every moment in life- including their work.
It is so crazy, as you say Johanna, its free, the world desperately needs us in our fullness and ‘super power expression’, and yet some of us still hold back. It is up to us to allow time and space for this super power to come through.
Absolutely Elizabeth “you need nothing to do it with except be yourself” we can make it (life) so complicated when we just simply have to be all that we are – our amazing selves. The rest just comes so naturally this super power we all have within.
We all have so much to offer when we express from our true selves and not hold back, it’s truly inspirational what we all have to share.
No need for leotards and capes … well maybe on the special occasion but all these super powers in everyday people what a combination, there’s no escaping the super power in you.
Superpower is not only for the chosen few – it’s for all of us to claim. We are the one to choose.
Furniyo when we choose our superpower, it’s a bit like being in a Ferrari, it takes a super strength to not shrink back from such power. I know I have in the past, I didn’t appreciate what I could bring and was afraid I would stand out too much; not a good thing amongst your piers. Now getting use to this new vehicle of expression and connecting with people first, I have learnt how to be in my fullness so it includes ‘the all’.
It’s definitely very powerful!
Kathryn this is a beautiful expression and brings a sense of joy to all of me allowing a freedom and truth to be all I am. What a gift this is in our expression and what the world is badly lacking. It brings a fullness and love to us all as a reflection and inspiration because we al know truth deep in side and can feel it absolutely and is our super power.
A person’s natural expression is seeing their lightness. Living with the connection to their essence is a beautiful thing to witness. It is felt in the way someone walks, talks and smiles. This is super power-full.
Yes Mathew, I agree “A person’s natural expression is seeing their lightness”. Whenever I am serious it is a sure sign I have lost my sparkle and gone into the ‘trying’ with the focus on what I am doing rather than on my being. Life is so much more fun and stress free when I am being silly and playful.
This article also got me considering how ‘normal’ it is to hide who we truly are. I bottled so much expression up in my body, it became bloated and hard, and I became deeply frustrated and self critical, because I wasn’t being who I felt I could be and expressing myself. I am now finding my true voice, walk, sway, grace, joy expression and I feel like I am coming home and that I am truly alive.
What a celebration of expression, I was joyful and inspired by reading these accounts of people being who they truly are. Thank you for sharing.
In fact we are all like Superman, but most of us did get lost in the identification of being (only) Clark Kent and our superpower did become buried. Your blog Kathryn is a beautiful reminder that we all can claim back our power by choice and what a joy & inspiration it is to have people in our life who did it.
Sandra indeed a true superpower that is within us all simply waiting for us to use what is waiting to be used. Nothing to attain simply express. No trying just allowing. The more we do claim in back today the greater not only our lives are, but all lives are; inspired with joy.
You know a lot of gorgeous people Kathryn….or do we all know gorgeous people because we all are?! To appreciate what we bring to the world is embracing our power, instead of giving our power away to doubt, victimhood or judgement. To express this power holds an inner beauty, a shining comes through and warmth all around. Expressing our truth is a real blessing.
Thank you Kathryn. I agree that it is awesome when people are expressing from their true selves and I wonder what holds us back sometimes when we know with a deep knowing how glorious true expression is when it touches us and when we are in our own true expression.
So true Janne, you can really feel it when someone truly expresses, when I truly express. There is just an effortlessness to it, not pushing or trying, it is heaven sent, for whomever you are speaking with or it may be for yourself. Either way, there is a really feeling when it is true expression.
I only can agree Janne and raegankcairney and I like to add something and that is – it feels not so imposing if people are expressing from their true selves and that I love as well.
Yes I agree ladies and I too love when another is expressing from their inner heart how empowering it is to be with them as it supports me to express from my connection to my heart too.
To truly express gives my body a complete different feeling afterwards, I feel more full and alive, there is a joy in letting myself feel the love not only for myself but the love for people. My body can expand instead of shrink and getting tight when I am coming from frustration and manipulating with what I express.
Thank you for sharing this Kathryn. I love the depth of appreciation and inspiration that you see in those around you.
I love how you have shared all the amazing qualities of the people you have met. It is inspiring how you done this and a great quality in you to be appreciated! Thank you Kathryn 🙂
How gorgeous to bring fun, wit and a laughter to one’s expression! To feel the joy of this! I know I have an innate sense of humour that I am gaining confidence in letting out. Gees, the life of trying to be seen and recognized is so SERIOUS!
No more for this earth angel ;
Good for you Emma, I can just feel the fun, wit and playfulness you emanate.
I’m with you, recognition is way too serious.
Having been inspired to work on my own expression I have discovered the feeling of freedom from being able to express what I feel and know to be true in any moment despite expectations.
It is an awesome feeling to speak what you feel, and not rely on what I learned in a book or from something I read to communicate. In speaking from the heart there is no need to justify or back something up with evidence. It is known to be true on the basis of it being felt and known through that experience.
That has been my experience to Naren “In speaking from the heart there is no need to justify or back something up with evidence. It is known to be true on the basis of it being felt and known through that experience.” The authority it comes through with is felt by all leaving no desire to question it.
This challenges the common belief that we have to first “know” before we speak, but that this knowledge is something we have to have gained from the outside. Wisdom is there for everybody we just have to live in away that we can access it and then the wisdom is just delivered to us in accordance to what is needed. We live in a sea of wisdom and have forgotten how to access it!!!
I can also relate to feeling a sense of freedom through true expression Michael. I feel the expansion in my body when I don’t hold back what is there to be said.
I’ve been playing with my expression too Michael and have noticed that within this is the playfulness that I expressed as a child returning as the adult and there is no limit to how great this feels.
YES, I say yes to the natural grace expressed by a woman who knows she is and is prepared to let the world see. ‘…a woman who knows love so deeply that when she smiles you see all the grandness of the universe in her eyes.’ These words DEEPLY INSPIRE, and is a truth that we are all so capable of reflecting to the world. We just have to deeply know that in our presence and stillness, we are enough, not in how much we DO for others.
I love what you share here about your daughter Emma Danchin. I also see my daughter grow and grow in her expression. She says so much much more then when she was little. I am becoming aware that she’s actually closely looking at both me and her mum to see and feel how much she’s allowed to express. Becoming aware of this makes me express more and more and the wonderful effect is that she’s expressing more and more by me giving her ‘permission’ by giving myself permission to share. Last year when my daughter (3 years old back than) was on holidays with her mum she couldn’t look at me as the pain of missing was too much. Where as now she feels solid and confident and I chatted the other day with her for 42 (!!!) minutes. To me this is a miracle. It is so so lovely! A confirmation of the open and loving relationship we are building within ourselves and with each other!
I agree Emma these words do deeply inspire. So beautiful to come back to this truth.
Watching my 7yo daughter grow in her expression through drawing her pictures has been amazing for me, as when I was a kid I became obsessed with colouring inside the lines and getting everything SO PERFECT!! It’s been very cool to see this and completely withdraw from putting this onto her, watching the ease and fun that she brings to her pictures. And it is amazing how they end up capturing the essence of the person she is drawing!
Lately I have been encouraging her (and myself) to use descriptive, appreciative words to express our love for each other, rather than just ‘I love you’. It’s been so fun and brings a feeling of warmth in my heart when we share a greater intimacy with each other, offering her all the strength and amazing qualities I see in her and her the same, showing me just how much she really does feel and see.
The lightness and spunk in the way you write, with unreserved appreciation for the people who have inspired you, is gorgeous to read and feel Kate! It inspires me to keep letting ME out of the box I have put MYSELF in!
‘There is something glorious about a person letting themselves out and letting their natural expression flow.’ what an amazing line to start this blog with and isn’t it just so glorious.
True Brendan, what we bring offers evolution in every moment and it is our responsibility. And that is a responsibility makes it no less fun to shine our true light wherever we go.
Kathryn I could feel my appreciation for all of us who choose to walk and live who we truly are ignite more deeply in me as i read your words. It is amazing that what you shared is becoming our normal! To be deeply connected, loving and unashamedly brilliant is actually OK and should be celebrated, not hidden away to only come out when feeling ‘safe’! The world needs our light – let us all shine brightly.
The true beauty lies within all of us and through our natural expression in full this inspires the world.This is a beautiful blog Kathryn and a great sharing and appreciation of our expression and all we are in this. Serge Benhayon is the inspiration for humanity in every way and unlocking our super powers and our expression that we have held back on and denied through time.
Kathryn your blog is a gorgeous lesson in appreciation. It is inspired by true light and love which is able to recognise and celebrate the same in others.
One day I discovered that I was often hurting people with my words and vibes and most of the words didn’t contribute to anything but confrontation. I realized that I mainly used to express from judgment, expectation, disappointment, comparison or trying to convince. I discovered that I was making myself either less or more. Since then I have learned that there is another way of expressing – it is in fact the only way. Expressing the truth with an open heart, letting the real me out and letting everybody in without judgment, without holding back.
Wow Kathryn, the people you describe are living in vibrant color and it seems like we are living in black and white by comparison. This blog is encouraging us to come out from behind the hurts we have been hiding behind and make the most of our time with others. Thank you Kathryn this blog is truly uplifting.
Thank you Kathryn. Another visit to your blog and I continue to be inspired. Today I sent an email to a group of people sharing all the beauty I see in them. Sharing this appreciation with them sparked the most beautiful expressions and they fully appreciated someone seeing them for who they truly are from their essence. It made me wonder about the potential if appreciation was naturally expressed all the time. How different would our world be.
Absolutely Johanna08smith, the world would be vastly different if we concentrated on appreciation rather than comparison, competition and making others less than from jealousy and not feeling ‘good enough’. This causes a rot in our society with untold effects. The sadder thing is that we each choose to accept this in ourselves until we appreciate the superpower in all as Kathryn has.
Beautiful Adam and what a dance that will be!
Yes Amanda it may take a while but once we know who we are there can be no stopping us!
Thank you Kathryn for sharing your beauty.
Like you Kathyrn, I love that there are so many beautiful inspiring people in this world. Thank you for sharing
Thanks to Universal Medicine and the way of the livingness I too know these people,who are all leading the way of how we all can be, by expressing who we truly are.
When we connect to who we are and discard our masks and allow our selves to shine, we show the world our true beauty, our light. . . our essence of love . . . . and everyone feels this; this also allows us to feel others in their essence, in their true beauty.
So beautifully shared Alison – Yes the more we share of ourselves the more we feel reflected back to us.
‘…thousands of people worldwide have now been inspired to unlock their own true expression.’ I am appreciating more deeply the inspiration that Serge Benhayon is bringing to humanity Kate. We can just exist in life and do what we do without appreciating our own unique expression that is an essential part of the whole. If we don’t learn to appreciate and own our expression, it is left, like an unopened, most precious gift. Thank you for bringing this to my attention and enhancing my appreciation of myself and of Serge Benhayon.
Beautiful bernadetteglass I am all for appreciating my own unique true expression as I am into appreciating yours.These precious gifts are the outflow of the love that is us.
..’the love that is in us.’ Only when we absolutely connect and accept that we are made of love kathleenbaldwin, will we surrender and stop the harm that we do to ourselves and others by looking outside of ourselves for that which is waiting inside to be celebrated.
Wise and true words bernadetteglass!
Wow Bernadette. This sentence of yours really stood out for me ‘If we don’t learn to appreciate and own our expression, it is left, like an unopened, most precious gift.’ It is so true. We have this gift of gold in us and we leave it aside. Thank God for Serge Benhayon for fully claiming and reflecting the power of our expression from his lived way.
When I read this I hear and see the beauty that lies in each and everyone of us. There is a deep beauty, swagger, truth and Love lying mightily in wait for us all to return to and appreciation like this is just the beginning.
Beautiful Joshua…I can’t wait until its in full swing.
I love your comment Adam, indeed when each and every one of us learn to dance together as one and bring our everything into all that we do, the universe will be pumping!
Thank you Kate, you have shared what it is to be ourselves and the power of the reflection we have on others by the quality we express in. I love the way you have appreciated this in others around you.
Kathryn, I simply adore this blog, it is so yummy. It is also so refreshing to see someone write in a way that feels similar to how I register people. I am inspired to put pen to paper A pure joy to read. Thank you sincerely.
It is a learning journey that expression is super powerful. I have also had many examples of seeing and feeling people who express with their whole body and it is an absolute joy to feel. The more we embody our expression, the more we can feel the living truth of it.
Absolutely agree that one pass by Serge Benhayon in the hallway would be enough inspiration to set the world on Fire! Thank you for sharing Kathryn!
Kathryn, it struck me this morning re-reading your blog that the reason why we relate so strongly to movies like superman is because somewhere within us we know we have the capacity to bring our superpowers to the world. The only problem is that we do not always see ourselves as super powers but your blog dispels all of that.
I agree Elizabeth. This is so true. We do relate to movies like superman.
So true Elizabeth, we CAN feel the super amount of love that lives within us, and we DO want to live it/express it. Maybe we think it is only for those certain ‘super people’, that it is out of reach, but maybe they are role models that we can be inspired by.
Ah I love this Elizabeth – so true! Seeing we are ‘super beings’ too is one thing but accepting and living this another. However as this blog shows there are many now showing us this is possible.
I love what you have said Elizabeth “the reason why we relate so strongly to movies like superman is because somewhere within us we know we have the capacity to bring our superpowers to the world”. Everyone has had those strong feelings and the desire to stand up and shine, but we rarely have the conviction to carry on when at times we are not popular & we receive unpleasant reactions. But I like Kathryn has said what a gift it is when individuals persevere and do express their all with an open heart. It is such a joy, healing and inspiring, as in the case of this article.
On rereading your blog Kathryn I was so inspired by the absolutely gorgeous testimonial you expressed about Serge Benhayon, I so wholeheartedly agree with you.
“Serge Benhayon is another man who imbues all he does with his true expression. Because this man has been prepared to share his wisdom, spunk, wit, deep care, unshakable knowing of truth, alignment to purpose – and I could go on all day – with the world, thousands of people worldwide have now been inspired to unlock their own true expression”.
Yes Katie I really loved reading how uniquely beautiful each description of these amazing people are. It’s quite amazing to consider how uniquely amazing and indispensable we all are, how who we each are is required and equally wonderful.
Our true expression is super powerful. We are expressing all the time and have an opportunity in every moment to choose what we will convey to others through our movements as well as our words; not through trying to be something but by simply being true to who we are.
I love that Mary, dynamite indeed, and I love how you are smouldering away…although I would say you are more sparkling than smouldering, and as you get closer to the power you just get brighter and brighter, along with the rest of us that have been so inspired by Serge Benhayon to express all of who we are. There’s going to be an awful alot of socks flying around before long!!
So beautiful to read, this appreciation and honoring of the amazing people in your life, is very much inspiring for me. What about we tell them all, that we are so blessed to know them. I had the pleasure to meet so many amazing women and men in my life, too. Your article reminds me of the great connections with amazing people who are my living inspirations.
Yes absolutely. As I connect more and more to the amazing people I know in life I realise the steps I too have made and continue to make and how this then inspires others along the way.
Just us being ourselves and expressing that is good medicine for us and those around us…we may not think that just walking into a room in all our grace and beauty does very much, but boy oh boy, it does. People notice, they can feel it and as you’ve shared here Kathryn, it inspires them.
Kathryn, what an absolute joy to read this…I had a smile so big across my heart and my face as I read this today. I know a woman who knows how to express her love for others so eloquently and it flows like silk (you Kathryn) without saying the words ‘I love you’.
Words of pure gold and oh so true.
Absolutely Sandra, I too had a big smile outwardly and inwardly reading this bright shiny blog of appreciation for the amazingness that is now all around us. Just a super gorgeous reflection of how not to hold back loving others for all that they bring.
“Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world”. Such wise words Kathryn; words that sound so simple, but by living all that I am and not holding me back from all those around me, I have found to be absolutely true.
I feel Ive had a huge shift since reading this blog. I am now feeling me and how I express and what I hold back when I’m not expressing fully. Much to feel and ponder on, Thank you Kathryn, a very powerful blog.
I agree alisonmoir, the more we express from our hearts and live love in our lives, the more we are able to bring it to the world and see love in all around us, even if it is veiled by behaviours. It is a truly amazing and joyful way to live.
I think it’s 7 billion Adam 🙂 and you are right when we at last learn to dance and be together the ripples will certainly be felt throughout the stars – just reading this put a smile on my face and a warmth in my heart to keep sharing all of myself with humanity.
I agree. It was delicious.
Your statement captures it perfectly…”When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same….” True expression is definitely inspiring!
Absolutely Johannebrown17 the fact that true expression calls another to be in theirs is the clue to all life – we are so deeply connected and this is how we are to live.
What I find is super is when I say nothing but feel the connection of another person and they begins to connect themselves. Meeting a person and letting them in allows them to feel safe to do the same. There is such power in presence.
This blog is full of superpowers Kate. “Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world.” I love this line and it is so true, when we come out from the shadows and share our selves with all, there is no greater superpower on earth that can stop the untapped joy.
What a beautiful, joyful celebration of your true expression Kathryn and your appreciation of others in theirs. I love it!
It makes a huge difference to us all to have someone truly express how they feel.
‘One workshop, one conversation – heck, one pass of this man in the hallway is enough inspiration to transform lives and see miracles happen… and for many, many people, this is exactly what seeing Serge in his full glory has led to.’ – This, I can 100% attest to Kathryn.
Thank-you Kathryn, so much of your own awesome super power being expressed here in your appreciation. Right here is proof (if we ever needed it) that we are all truly amazing.
When you think about it, it is an extraordinary thing that so many people lack the confidence to just be themselves, to let their inner light shine and bless us all with their natural expression. I propose we need to re-evaluate our parenting and education models quick smart.
Yes, it is quite incredible how there are so many with this lack of confidence yet when we look at very young children there is a solidness and presence that can be felt and is often displayed. So what is it that changes? How we parent and then how education works has to be called into question.
It is quite simple, we need to be loved and honoured for who we are and not what we do. That way we will not feel the need to contort ourselves to fit the ideals and expectations of our parents and teachers – mainly because they won’t be calling us to do so.
I feel so much joy when I read your blog Kathryn, beauty and grace in every word, endless inspiration is coming through your writing. You are you in your writing, super power in expression. I am smiling from the inside out, thank you!
Just us being us is powerful and can touch peoples’ lives. This is a great message.
Yes Annie, it is almost too simple!
Yes, when we express from our open, undefended loving true nature it is a superpower for as you say, Kathryn, “you are showing them that it is safe to do the same”. They take their defences down, which creates a ripple effect of love.
To stand up and express in all we do in full is something that I’m also experiencing as my super power. I used to think expression was about saying things you know, from recall and memory or what you have learnt, but the more I allow myself to deeply appreciate the fact that true expression comes from connecting to my soul,allowing my body to speak first then I start to feel the real power of expression. Something that we can all equally do regardless of prior eduction or knowledge. This has taken time as for much of my life I thought my thoughts and my brain were the centre of expression rather than the whole of my body.
True power is letting ourselves out, letting our full selves be seen. Magic how it works, amazingly we then see, more readily, the fullness and beauty and truth that is always there in others. A lovely confirming blog Kathryn.
It is magic how it works Jeanette, and letting ourselves be seen in full is a well worth it work in progress for most of us as we get used to the fullness of ourselves once again.
I love how you have shown that these superpowers are not for the special or select few; the power of being ourselves is equally there for everyone, each of us in own expression.
I love the spunk and wit you write with Kathryn and can see that you are walking too in your own superpower. It is very inspiring thank you.
I also love this spunky expression of Kathryn’s. The way she writes makes me instantly imagine what she is writing about. Purely Divine.
You, Kathryn, seeing and appreciating all those amazing qualities and superpowers in others around you and expressing it in your blog, are clearly a person having all of it within you.
It is empowering and uplifting to look at humanity though the eyes of love.
Just the words ‘seeing humanity through the eyes of love’ is exquisite in itself. When we are all able to look at others from a body that only knows love, we will know brotherhood once again.
Through the eyes of love we see others for who they really are and not for their habits and patterns. A very inspiring sharing Elena.
“When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same”. They not only see it but feel it on many levels. Great blog Kathryn, awesome to read it once again.
Exactly Katie “why hold back the uniqueness that is us?” – because if we do allow ourselves to express all that we are it frees others up and inspires them to do the same.
And it is this uniqueness and the power of it that can move any obstacle out of the way. We are all the same, yet it is our unique expression that is the gift we have to offer to the world.
So true deborahmckay. When we hold back our expression it harms us by holding it in and it harms others by not being offered the reflection and seeing that it is safe to express in full.
Seeing the universe in someone’s eyes – how beautiful it says so much about that moment of deep and all encompassing knowing and connection.
True expression really does have a way of being heard, even if it is seemingly ignored initially, it does enter the body and at some point it quietly taps you on the shoulder.
Lovely comment, thank you mathew brown. I have experienced this myself countless times. It feels quite magical and your comment allows me to appreciate this more deeply and reminds me to keep on expressing the truth even though it may appear to fall on stony ground.
Loving your comment Matthew, beautiful expression.
After attending an amazing event – Unimed Saturday – I was talking to a friend about parents and teachers involved in the primary school in the neighbourhood. As I was talking and connecting to them I actually felt them letting go of their guards. I’ve heard about everything is energy, but this superpower was new to me. We have indeed superpower! Everyone. We can only choose to be not aware of it and shutting it down.
“The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!” Wow very true and powerful statement Kathryn, the more we let our selves out and express who we truly are, the more we inspire others, that it is safe to do the same, this spreads like ‘wild fire’, igniting us all as one and the same, as one humanity.
“When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them it is safe to do the same.” Very well said Kathryn, as a humanity so many seem to walk around acting out a role that we invented that we imagine is how others want us to be, and another person we meet may be doing the exact same thing, in this ‘insanity’ we call normal society; millions of people not showing others who they truly are.
Serge Benhayon has touched the hearts of hundred’s of people I have met or seen, inspiring them to absolutely transform their lives, health, well-being and relationships.
This is not by being followers, devotees or in any way worshipping Serge, but learning by example of the way he lives and walks what he talks one hundred percent all of the time.
“People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerizing and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.” When I have met people that are simply themselves and authentic and genuine, it is so deeply inspiring, it allows me to be the same, without any need to play a role or be pleasing, this reflection is what is so desperately needed in a world that we have become so false and phony, everyone acting in a way that they imagine others want them to be like.
“Have you watched children as they download their imaginations onto paper with textas and crayons – imbuing the paper with their natural confidence in what they have to share? That is a lesson right there for every adult who has ever felt pressure to perform, to get it right, or do it perfectly within their work.” Very true Kathryn the joy and expression that children naturally have is very inspiring for us as adults, they don’t have the self- critique, judging and constantly evaluating what they have done.
I am realising just how important it is to express, express, express! And to not hold back anything. I realise now how much life is geared towards us not expressing and to hold back and that the world is comfortable with this but we ALL miss out and I feel the enormous contraction in my heart and in every cell when I do this now.
Yes Joshua, the world is comfortable with this – I guess we could say most people are playing this game because it allows us to stay in comfort.
Ironically though Eva, even though it is comfortable it is a seeming comfort as I am realising just how uncomfortable it is not to express our truth and our Love
Well said Joshua – we are tricking ourselves.
I agree Abby and Aimee – true appreciation like we see in this blog is deeply touching and lifting us all to a place of absolute understanding as it is very real – it is truly felt.
Even just as we consider the possibility that there could be a super power inside, bursting for the chance to be expressed is groundbreaking.
Such an inspirational sharing Kathryn – each time I read this blog I’m smiling as it reminds me of the many people I come into contact with who constantly inspire without any trying. They are just being all of who they are and going about their day with this ‘superpower haze’ around them to boot. It’s in the way they walk, talk (superpower in expression) and look you in the eye and hold you in their light. It can transform and change lives. Miracles do happen – constantly.
I love the way you have written about the people who inspire you, and the appreciation and celebration is felt within your words. How awesome is it that there are now many children within the student body of The Way of The Livingness, who are being brought up being seen and appreciated for who they truly are.
I agree Alex – that is true power.,and the great thing about it is that it’s connected to free will, there is no imposing anything upon another.
So many golden nuggets Kate! “One workshop, one conversation – heck, one pass of this man in the hallway is enough inspiration to transform lives and see miracles happen… and for many, many people, this is exactly what seeing Serge in his full glory has led to.” And SO TRUE. When you look around there are so many beautiful people to be inspired by and makes you realise the power of expression when expressed in truth.
So true Donna, one meeting of Serge Benhayon, , if one is open to what he has to share, completely blows away all the false concepts, ideas and pictures we have dragged around with us for a lifetime, that weigh us down like a heavy burden that no longer serve us, but we may be terrified to let go of.
Love it Mary! You are dynamite, blowing people’s socks off already!
Absolutely Abby, as well as the lightness, fun and deep love we bring to ourselves when we “embrace our innate qualities” and give ourselves permission to share this with the world.
I love the title of this blog – having lived most of my life completely holding back my true expression, I am starting to realise just how superpowerful and superimportant it is to offer MY true expression and reflection to everyone.
Yeah Kathryn – bring on the superpower! A stunning blog, thank you.
And now I am thinking how come as adults we resist joining in many possible singing and laughing your pants off’ moments with our children? Why do we tell them to stop making so much noise and go to another room so we can get on with being all hard and serious? I think we may all be missing out on a lot of potential joy and ‘just being yourself-ness’.
Kathryn I am blown away by the appreciation in your sharing, the incredible strength in each of the situations simply by those people expressing in truth who they are. It is inspiring for us all to simply express all of us.
I love reading your blog. So inspiring!!! I too have met people who are completely mesmerising, glorious, graceful and truly beautiful. These meetings are always so inspiring, healing, joyful and fun.
Thank you for expressing so eloquently Chan, the word mesmerizing sums it up for me, when I meet people as you describe, its hard not be touched by someone who is deeply connected to themselves, I feel waves of joyful tears, as this is a reflection of the immense grace and beauty we all can connect to inside ourselves.
Kathryn – when you say ‘When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.’ – that says so much to us all. What an amazing opportunity we have to inspire others when we realise that to be who we truly are is all that is needed.
Yet we know all to well how to avoid being this. But one only needs to look at the state of how many people are living to know something is not working. All I can say is that I used to hide who I was very well, but now I am learning to be who I am – and in that, I have never felt such vitality or openness as what I do now.
I totally agree, Kathryn. My history teacher was incredibly enthusiastic and always somehow made the lesson interesting and exciting. When I got my exam results he asked what I got and was shocked and horrified when I said I had only got 1 CSE Grade 1, which was for his class. Well, if all the teachers had been as enthusiastic as he had, I may well have got more! It just shows how bringing love and true tender care into our day can change not only our lives, but also the lives of others.
What an inspiring blog Kathryn. I have felt similar things when I have watched my daughter dancing, singing, and laughing her pants off, and many times this has been contagious, even though I can feel that I have not allowed myself that same level of joy to be expressed due to many years of ‘trying to get it right’ (as you mentioned) and being perfect to avoid getting hurt. Seeing other people be themselves fully really does spread to others around them!
I have found playing with children is the absolutely best way to get yourself to let go of your protections and achieve the ‘laugh you pants off’ state.
Absolutely Jeannette, however grumpy or stuck in reaction or closed down and protected I am, children can 99% help me come back to myself and my heart, dropping the wall of protection, the 1% of the time when it doesn’t work is when I’m stubbornly choosing to stay in my hurts and protection.
Yeah Thomas Scott and in those 1% of times how terrible does it feel, and how hard to we have to try to suppress our natural joy. It sure feels like we are harming ourselves by doing this.
Beautiful michaelgoodheart36 – the children can teach us to let go of the ingrained belief systems about ‘how to behave as an adult’.
We got it all backwards trying to get children to behave like adults, it is the children that should be doing the teaching.
Yes Michael, seeing someone really settle into themselves and let go all they have to offer is both inspiring and infectious. We hold back to avoid getting hurt but that is just a trick because nothing can hurt you when you are letting your love out. Contracting is what hurts.
Kathryn I love how you love people and celebrate them. You can feel this leaping off the page. Absolutely beautiful.
I agree Lee – very profound to feel the beauty held by Kathryn for all others – so Alive
Well said Lee, Kathryn you love of people and your exuberant expression of joy, would be an absolute blessing to all the people you work with, how fortunate and blessed are they.
“There is something glorious about a person letting themselves out and letting their natural expression flow”. There is indeed Kathryn and the examples you gave are so inspiring.
Your last two paragraphs are such a beautiful, stunning and divine testimony to Serge Benhayon.
Your blog is a gorgeous expression of you Kathryn; super powerful!
I can see the change with children – they clock us when we walk past them and when we walk in our fullness, they notice.
They do Christoph. When I pick my kids up from school, I notice other kids that do exactly that, looking and making direct eye contact, so we share a moment confirming what we both feel, it’s quite beautiful, so much is felt without a word being spoken.
I’ve noticed this too Cristoph and Matthew, when I am in my fullness children will meet me directly in the eyes and have a good solid look – reading everything and I love letting them in.
I agree – children don’t shy away if we don’t.
Agreed Christoph this is something I have played with for a while, in the supermarket kids can’t help but feel the grace and power – it calls them back for a moment.
That’s very true Christoph. This happened the other day for me. It’s quite a beautiful experience that we notice each other in that moment and that’s it. Nothing more is needed.
Very well said Kathryn – shame I could only “like” this blog – I LOVE IT – so true and inspiring!
I love this article Kathryn, I love the playfulness and truth written here and the simple message of how powerful we are when we are being ourselves and not holding back, I have seen and felt this power and it is super inspiring.
Pondering on your work with speech pathology Kathryn, I can feel how supportive and powerful your awareness around expression is for the people you work with every day, who are coming to see you because they are struggling with their communication and expression. I can feel how your deep understanding of these issues is offering the opportunity to take this therapy to a much deeper, a much needed level, where it’s not just about being able to be confident in communicating, but actually being confident to let ourselves out in full, without measuring and expressing all of who we are. Your work is much needed in our world.
What I find so gorgeous about this blog is that you share about the qualities people bring: sassiness incarnate, the grandness of the universe in her eyes and the natural spunk, joy and wisdom. It is this that is so beautiful about us all, and that we bring this divinity in many ways. Seeing this in people brings such a depth to life, and it is something we probably all are missing and love to been seen for, at least I am.
Beautifully put Lieke. We do indeed all bring our own flavour of sass, grandness and beauty to life, and this diversity is what makes the world so vibrant and rich in culture. Sadly due to such thick ideals and beliefs we have taken on, many people do not feel confident or trust that they will be appreciated/accepted when they bring their flavour, so contract and do not show the world who they really are.
Absolutely Susie, ‘this diversity is what makes the world so vibrant and rich’, we all bring our unique flavour, we bring through our divinity in many ways.
It’s beautiful to read about everybody’s unique way of expressing, and especially your appreciation of these people is so clearly felt. True expression is definitely a super power, and we all can re-connect to expressing from the All that we are. Thank you Kathryn for your loving expression. My own holding back my expression has been deeply challenged thanks to the understanding Serge Benhayon has brought to what expression is really about and how important it is.
Yes I am absolutely inspired by Serge Benhayon to live what I know is true and stop holding back my amazingness through joy and strength.
Your words here Kathryn have helped me realise just how powerful it is to stop and see other people’s beauty. We are no perfect 🙂 but there’s so much power in our natural qualities when we stop letting unneeded behaviours get in the way.
Yes Joseph Barker, that’s awesome and it has helped me to truly enjoy others, as I see through the unneeded behaviours as I can feel their natural qualities and appreciate those fully.
Awesome Joseph – in being open to the seeing of another we get to truly appreciate the world and everyone in it for we each are beautiful and amazing.
I agree Lee, one of the most beautiful things in my life now is seeing everyone for who they are and appreciating their own unique beauty and quality. It wipes out judgement and fills the body with love.
We make it about perfection and thereby hide from the world how perfect we are.
I agree Joseph. It is so lovely to ‘stop and see’ each other for our beauty instead of focusing on the imperfections. Appreciating the beauty in another has actually supported me in deepening my appreciation for myself.
And yes Joseph … to know who we truly are is fundamental to full expression, not just words from our mouths but with our whole body expressing and communicating the qualities we naturally are; our innate gifts we bring to share.
I agree Joseph, Kathryn’s words helped me see this too, ‘how powerful it is to stop and see other people’s beauty.’
Yes Joseph I agree. Kathryn’s blog has helped me to see and feel how much more I can appreciate myself and the qualities I bring for in the appreciation of myself only then can I truly appreciate another.
One of the myths i have grown up with is that expression is all about words, the words we write and the words we use. What you have encapsulated here Kathryn is that expression is in everything, everyone and everywhere all of the time. You comment – ‘I have met a woman who knows love so deeply that when she smiles you see all the grandness of the universe in her eyes’, – is one of those expressive moments that is felt every time I meet someone’s eyes.
Absolutely Ch1956, expression is so much more than the words we speak, one look when meeting another’s eyes, has ‘brought me to my knees’, so to speak; tears of joy and appreciation to have been completely met by another with no games or protection, fleeting moments like this stay with me for years.
And the beauty of it is Thomas that the more we as humanity express from who we truly are the less fleeting and rare these moments will be.
Me too, I was brought up with Words are Everything. Even if the words felt ‘false’ e.g. that I felt something different energetically. That was the confusing bit for me. I started to believe the words and disregard the energy of the person, now I know it is ALL about the energy. Words are just an element, result of this energy. So bringing and sharing ourselves in full or not, with or without words can be easily felt by another.
I love this point – “The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!”. The way that this blog is written demonstrates this point. Every time I read it I am struck by the love that is being shared by its author. It is so uplifting and very joyful and something settles in me simply knowing that there are people like its author Kathryn Maroney in the world who dares to let the world know how utterly beautiful she is and that she simply gets how gorgeous people are in their essence.
Spot on Elizabeth! The sheer joy and love in which Kathryn expresses her appreciation reflects directly the expression of those she is appreciating. This in itself is testimonial of the power of reflection in inspiring and giving others permission to do exactly the same.
I loved to read your blog, Kathryn. Because it is so inspiring and enjoyable what you reveal here through your superpower! When you write: “How could I but learn what he had to share about computer use when he shared all of his gorgeousness first?” this shows, that superpower is about opening up hearts and making the connecting from superpower to superpower – so then there will remain no limits.
Superpower to superpower indeed – when we open up and share from our hearts, it can absolutely feel like a superpower, connecting with people is what we are here for….fabulous blog, loved it.
Yes raegankcairney we are here to connect… anything less is holding ourselves and other back!
So inspirational, Kathryn. I often ask myself why I hold back from expressing fully as I feel that I do hold back at times. I do not always appreciate the power of what I can bring to others or what there is in me to bring. Some work for me to do here!
And a lot of joy to experience. True expression is very joyful.
I love the depth of true appreciation you bring to this blog Kathryn – a true superpower in itself!
A heartfelt thank you.
Stephanie, that was my feeling too, that there is such a power in appreciating, to see the qualities in others is such a positive and affirming way to live. I see examples of this in daily life where people compliment another on some aspect of their behaviour or way of being. It is a confirmation and appreciation of the other person that is life affirming, it is brotherhood in action, bringing people closer together. I use the example of where you compliment a small child on the shoes they have on and how much that engages them more, and makes them want to share more of themselves with me, just by recognising they are here with you. Kathryn, thank you for your insights, not just valuable but immeasurably powerful.
This is beautifully expressed Alex Braun – ‘getting over ourselves’ and realising it is about the quality we bring to other people and living this, is humbling, inspiring and powerful.
Oh I loved reading through the examples you gave of people of all ages expressing their true expression. It is so very gorgeous and precious when people do that. Children and dogs are always an amazing inspiration to me. And I love how you have acknowledged the amazing role model Serge Benhayon is in this area, allowing us to see how thousands of people can be touched and moved to connect more deeply to their own expression by just one person holding true with an unshakable absoluteness. Imagine the unfolding in the world, when more and more people are ignited and choose to express in this way.
Absolutely Kathryn, many many people have been changing their lives simply because they felt met with absolute love by Serge Benhayon. It is incredible what real loves does to people and see the effects of real love on people around me and within me. As when I look at the effects it has on people their lives, I know this is what I have experienced (in whatever degree). Serge has showed me how powerfull love is and how actually every single person is looking for love (also if this is in the wrong places, we all know love and we all want love). This brings in a huge understanding in life, as I am learning now. We are here , no matter what, we are all wanting the same. This makes us all brothers.
It is a huge inspiration to see others unfolding into the more real, more true, more expansive and more alive version of themselves that was buried under so many hurts, dramas, and issues – but that they have always had inside, and to see it emerge out and start to shine helps us to remember that we too have the same expanse and potential within that only needs to be allowed out too for us to transform. Here’s to offloading that which is not us and allowing the truth of us once more.
I totally agree, Annie. It is such a joy. It is like witnessing a tightly held flower bud open to show its fully glory. Over the years I now have witnessed this with so many of the Universal Medicine students. I know that I was a shriveled flower bud when I first came to Universal Medicine and have since opened so many of my petals
I agree Shirley that the consistency of Serge Benhayon is absolutely inspiring, as well as his deep commitment to humanity. These have been the keys for me to make many changes in my life.
Couldn’t agree more Annie. Our potential to shine is boundless. Those who let go of what they’re not and express who they are is very inspiring as I see it is possible too.
Yes, so true. It is like witnessing a package being opened in front of your eyes. The more layers fall off the more the beauty of what’s inside comes out.
Agreed Shirley; Serge Benhayon’s consistent reflection to show what it is to truly be yourself has been a constant source of inspiration to thousands.
The thing is Annie C we can see and feel another’s potential, if only they could appreciate their qualities, but at the same time can we appreciate our own?…. not usually. It only takes one person to fully claim themselves to break the cycle and reflect another way to all, it’s ‘ super powerful’ to be around such full expression which includes all the qualities Kathryn has highlighted.
Absolutely spot on Alex! Yes you are correct this is our true superpower; the power to inspire others to be in there fullness so that they in turn inspire others to be in there fullness and on and on it grows. I agree that this is super power-full.
I love this Alex ‘reflection and evolution work hand in hand’ . . .this is why it is so important to be in relationship with others as we can learn so much about ourselves and the more we understand our self the more we understand others.
So true Alex we all have our particular angle to offer.
Wow Kate, I love this blog! ‘There is something glorious about a person letting themselves out and letting their natural expression flow.’ Let me say that there is something glorious about you Kate Maroney for this is exactly what you have done here; you have let yourself out, big time!
I feel this too, Kathleen. I can feel the fullness of Kate in her expression and it feels amazing and very inspirational.
Well said Kathleen, in writing this Kathryn’s true expression is felt and the truth of what she is expressing is readily felt.
Kathryn gosh how powerful it is what You express and share here. Love it!
This is such a precious blog. Appreciation for so many people who truly inspire. It is a fantastic reminder and inspiration to simply be ourselves in full. In this way we inspire others without even trying.
That’s so true Rebecca, simply being myself in full is a work in progress but I can feel the benefits of letting go of trying and how others respond to this. It feels like they can relax around me and drop the charade as well.
I love when you share Alex, its very beautiful. Love the point you make here.
Kathryn I loved reading this blog! Because one man was not afraid to show who he was we now have a catalogue of people who have learnt and are learning to do the same. What I particularly liked about this blog was how it communicated the power of each individual who doesn’t hold back; individually very striking and world changing – as a group of people – incredibly powerful and world changing… more speedily with joy, fun and a lightness of being.
It is such a true power, the power that comes from our own expression. Nothing made up, just you.
Yes, Benkt, to just be our natural selves is the key to unleashing this true power within us all. How freeing and simple is that! Imagine if we were all raised to know this and live this way – how different this world would be.
“What is deeply precious is when there is a community of people who support each other to return to this naturalness we are all imbued with.”… true community. how amazing! Where its all about brotherhood and all the super powers we each have – rather than a dog eat dog, loss of connection, separated kind of place.
exactly Emily.. how would children grow up if we supported them in every way to be themselves and let them feel valued and supported one hundred billion percent.. THen the ruthless cut-throat jungle mentality the plagues current life would simply cease to exist as the drive behind that fear and hurt would not have a chance to flourish
Awesome Kathryn. When we let our true qualities shine and express from this it can be seen by all. “When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.” love it.
And Kathryn thank you for your gorgeous expression here, it was such a pleasure to read. As I did, I did not feel comparison to those that you so beautifully described, I felt inspired, I felt that I have that too as we all have. Totally inspired to go forth as totally me in all that I do today, thank you!
Absolutely Alison, in true expression there is no trying, it is just a person simply being themselves, having fun and letting out their innate qualities without holding back. Kathryn’s blog has highlighted the joy in this.
Thanks Kathryn for a very inspiring blog , and what a great reminder of what is possible when we bring our true selves to everything and everyone we meet . You can easily forget the power that can remain hidden in each one of us equally in a world where people can hide there awesomeness ,in fear of what reaction it may bring in others. When i left high school and began commuting into the city for work i was always hurt ,saddened and disillusioned by the drab and shut down faces on the train and how people would never meet or look you in the eye. I am so glad that things are changing and truly meeting or feeling the connection between myself and another is such an uplifting experience that brings so much hope and joy.
Kathyrn this is brilliant, I can’t stop smiling. What a joy to read and I am so inspired to be even more of me, knowing what it can do makes me want to be even more. Thank you so much for your love and grace in sharing your appreciation with such fun and joy. Instead of giving out medals for who beat who we should be giving out letters of appreciation such as these to all that inspire another way. A way back to our inner hearts and true brotherhood.
Our every movement is clocked by others – what a deep responsibiltiy we have to reflect and live the truth of who we are. For if we do not, then we equally reflect all that is not true and communicate this to the world.
Good point Deborah, our reflection is felt, either as something inspiring and true, or when we hold back, we reflect a way that is not a true way for us to be.
True Esther – it is another level of responsibility to live the real deal and to reflect all that we naturally are without holding back.
Thousands of people worldwide have now been inspired to unlock their own true expression’. This is so true Kathryn and I am one of those thousand who can attest to meeting Serge and knowing straight up, that I had not been living my true expression up until that time. And I am forever grateful that Serge has chosen to be that huge reflection of heaven on earth for us all to feel and know, we come from that also.
“When you walk you, people notice … ”
Very true, Kathryn, some people are intrigued, some react, but just by being the true you, truth is offered in everyday movement, no need to ‘try’ and show a new way.
Yes True Alex, this is Love in action and Brotherhood in the making.
Serge Benhayon is one such role model who expresses their truth, and in his wake are many who have felt safe and been inspired to let their Soulfull expression out of the bag too. For me it took a while as I was not practiced at it, then was a relief to do so and now a joy.
Yes, a joy, not only for yourself but for all of us as well, as to express as we truly are serves us all.
Great point katechorley, and what could be more inspiring and greater than serving all – nothing!
“When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” This makes me think how lacking we are in the world of people expressing the real them, their true Soulful expression devoid of the constraints of beliefs and hurts and expectations and agendas, of people role modelling to everyone else and thus giving us all permission to follow suit. We need more people like Serge Benhayon in our world.
This is very true jeanettegold – the world is lacking people who express who they truly are. It makes no sense that we would want to be more or less than who we are.
“When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same”. So true Kathyrn I have seen this many times.We all get the blessing when we allow others in.
You have captured so much here, how powerful that expression is not just about what we say or write but it is everything that we do.
Kathryn – wow and va-voom. What a blog! I love the appreciation shared here and the blessing you see in each person you pass and have shared about. This sounds like a delicious way to be.
Fantastic blog Kathryn, and yes, I agree.. “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same”
Thank you Kathryn, it is such a lovely way to appreciate others. truly inspiring.
This is gorgeous, such a beautiful and accurate description of the people we know.
‘I have met a woman who knows love so deeply that when she smiles you see all the grandness of the universe in her eyes.’ Each one of us has this within us and so can be inspired by this reflection.
This is one incredible love letter Kathryn.
Love it Jennifer, a love letter dripping with appreciation rather than romantic love.
What a gorgeous list of qualities that we can all bring – this is an inspiring blog to read and reread time and time again, thank you!
How important it is to appreciate ourselves and all others for the divine qualities that we each bring.
True Carmel, and to me this is the type of story I would have loved to have had read at school, the truth of life and not stories made up full of ideals and beliefs of how we “should” be taking us further away from our superpowers rather than having them celebrated and appreciated daily. To every child in school today may your unique superpower be celebrated.
‘The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!’ I so appreciate the understanding you have shared here. With the explosion of super hero TV shows and films over the last few years it shows how as society we are searching for that something amazing and fabulous hence the superhero rise. You have shown that we are all superheroes and it’s time to take off the masks and allow ourselves to fly.
What an amazing blog, I couldn’t stop reading – you obviously allowed all your superpower out for this!
Great blog.. first because it was a delight to feel how alive these examples were, the life and love that they so obviously brought to their interactions with you Kathryn. Secondly because I can feel the same sparkle in what you are writing here… showing this unfettered superpower is coming out of you as well!
Good call Simon – we each have within us the same divinity and spark reflected by others. It is a Loving call home to live all that we naturally are.
I loved your blog Kathryn Maroney – such a celebration of true power and beauty, and it makes it real and accessible and not something out there that we have to strive for but something that flowers from within if we allow ourselves to express who we are. Children are indeed a great reminder of that, just being themselves with no self-consciousness or wondering what others might think.
The true superpower is letting ourselves out, letting people in, letting the people see and feel (and bath in) the exquisiteness of God. From this there is no way back. This is a really beautiful blog Kathryn!!
“Superpowers are not for the select few, it is every single person’s birthright, it is very natural and it has to be consistently expressed.” Beautifully said Adele!
“People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.”
This is a world i want to live in and i have started myself living in this way. The more we do it the more natural it gets for ourselves and others.
‘This is a world i want to live in’ – ditto Janina. We all make up the world – every choice matters.
Kathyrn reading your article a few days ago has left a strong impact on me. When I am working I am now much more aware of letting my superpowers out. When I walk down the street, when I shop, when I am at home, I am claiming my superpowers and enjoying feeling and living from my essence. Thank you for the inspiration, remembering that we are all superheroes we just have to let out our superpowers for all to see.
Kathryn I too have watched small children painting or drawing with such deftness and confidence never a flicker of doubt as to the outcome. Who are we as adults not to take on this wonderful lesson they show us? A truly inspiring blog, thank you so much.
I love this article, there is such appreciation for others around you, that means there must be the same depth of appreciation for yourself.
I agree Joel and for me, this was the real joy of reading this article.
Great point Joel because is it possible that we can’t truly appreciate others without first appreciating ourselves?
Yes Deborah – and when we appreciate ourselves we can’t but appreciate all others.
Yes deborahmackay, I can feel that for sure, when people need to find fault in everybody it’s because they are just so unhappy and non accepting of who they are or where they are at themselves. Appreciating ourselves is a tremendous gift to ourselves, a gift that keeps on giving as they say, as everybody around us will actually get a blessing from that.
Definitely Ariana. Isn’t this the True beauty of life. That we can only truly give and receive (allow in) what we already have accepted for ourselves. If I’ve felt my own sweetness, I can feel it in others too. But if I’m dismissing my own sweetness, I will do so towards others too. Obvious, otherwise I would destroy my own ‘picture’ of life. So the only (!!) way truly forward (or in truth, back to ourselves) is to let love in, let go and accept the love more and more and more.
So true Joel- seeing and knowing ourselves helps us to see and know it in another.
Yesterday, I expressed in 2 completely different situations with my superpower and was astonished and surprised of the seeming normality, of this superpower. Both times what happened was a complete unity in the groups at hand. It was so supersimple, yet indeed superpowerful. The simplicity is that I was ‘just’ expressing me. There was no doing, in both cases very humbly sharing. I love this superpower!! If I can do it these 2 times, where else can I bring it…
Beautiful Floris – one expression leads to another. The superpower metre is expanding with every true expression we choose.
Yes Deborah, it is a continuum. A constant building of expression. It actually never ends. There’s always more to be expressed. The connection, the power, the beauty and the wisdom are forever expanding the more I am choosing to expand. It’s humbling and beautiful.
An exquisite movement of grace, truth and divinity – timeless, ageless and evolving of all.
Wow, you’ve summed it up so beautifully Deborah. I love the delicateness and silkyness in which you shared your wisdom: “An exquisite movement of grace, truth and divinity – timeless, ageless and evolving of all.”. Thank you. A confirmation that we are movement, that expression is movement and that we are to choose the quality of that movement. Whether that being Divine (evolutionary) or not (anti-evolutionary).
What is so ironic Floris is that it can seem so daunting to let our true expression out. We fear attack, jealousy, alienating people, getting people off side etc but when we actually go out there and do it it is so easy and feels so true, even joyful. You can be left wondering why you held onto your true expression for so long.
YES, Kate Maroney. So True. We’re holding back our Truths and Livingness out of fear where it is this same fear that keeps us from expressing. Expressing is natural, holding us back requires force and is very very draining in my experience. Great point you’ve touched on here Kate. A very important one. One that’s underestimated in the horrible effect it actually has on our well-being. The rise of illness and disease has to do with holding back, lacking true expression. Small talk does effect our health inmensely negatively…
Awesome blog Kathryn, Serge Benhayon always says -‘Expression is Everything’. At first I didn’t quite know the true meaning of this quote. Learning to express in a true way now for the first time in my life I am beginning to understand the power of our expression, and Serge Benhayon is a perfect living example of a man that has mastered true expression and this is deeply inspiring to all who know him.
“When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear” – absolutely true Kathryn. We all love the original version .. of anything or anyone.
I love this blog Kathryn, it talks about all these things that really matter in life and that we often dismiss or ignore.
There’s so much love for the details that people bring in your words – that’s seeing others through the eyes of your heart, not your head. Very beautiful! And this line: “From this woman I have learnt that a woman’s true power is in her presence and living her amazingness on the outside – no tongue stud, motorbike, taekwondo black belt or boring black pantsuit in sight; these are just not needed when a woman knows who she is and is prepared to let the world see.” really touched me. It reminds me on the fact that there’s nothing I have to prove to the world only because I am a woman. That I do not need to be hard working just as a man, that my body is not built for that.
Only a heart that is open to true expression is able to true expressing.
Kathryn when I first read your bog I connected with the celebratory nature of it, which was heart warming and joy filled. This time when I read it, I connected with the beauty and intricacy of the detail of your observations. This is truly amazing and shows that our deep appreciation and celebration of being alive is not arrived at by trying to create some state of perfection or even success or acclaim or to stand out in any way in the eyes of others, but in going deeper into the finer detail of our everyday lives – into the very fabric of what expression is about and to bring our loving essence into that detail. It is bringing quality to what we already know and do.
Totally agree Simon. Only a vibrant, joyful heart that clocks every detail can put these wonderful words together.
Well said Simon. When looking through the examples again I’m also struck by the details that Kathryn pulls out – you could say they are mundane and everyday situations, but the quality that she is discerning is out of this world.
Simon and Simon, I agree with you both, the detail is incredible in the appreciation of others, it is a remarkable thing to behold to be open to seeing and enjoying the expression that others bring. While some may not be living it as fully as they can, we can always see the qualities in another and support each other to develop those qualities further. Such support and encouragement by being ourselves can have profound effects on the lives of others, potentially many people that we will not even meet.
I second that ! Imagine if we all took the moments to appreciate all we register. Perhaps the world would not be in the state it is in. Our true essence and expression is super powerful.
This is beautiful Simon, ‘going deeper into the finer detail of our everyday lives – into the very fabric of what expression is about and to bring our loving essence into that detail. It is bringing quality to what we already know and do.’ I love how it is not about trying to be someone or something or trying to achieve something, but simply bringing more of us, our natural essence to everything we do.
Loved this Simon. the finer details make all the difference.
Well said Simon, our deep appreciation and celebration of life can be express by deepening our awareness and our commitment to bringing our loving essence into everything we do and say right down to the finest details. This quality will be then felt by all.
‘…thousands of people worldwide have now been inspired to unlock their own true expression.’ For me this part of your sharing summed it up for me Kate. We all have within the essence of the EVERYTHING life is and this is what I feel, see and experience in the lived way of Serge Benhayon, his family and many others who choose to know the power of their true expression. Thank you Kate.
“…people bringing themselves to the things they do…” this is the key to me. We are who we are first and foremost and it is amazing when we bring ourselves in full to what we do. What we do is a function of who we are, not the other way around. Thank you for sharing this Kathryn, I feel the joy of your appreciation.
Well said Lee. In this case there is no ‘chicken and egg’ scenario required – we live who we truly are and the quality of everything else; what we do as a job, our relationships, daily rhythm etc., will consequently change. What I’ve done in the past is when I don’t feel great or can see that there’s lots of issues going on, is immediately address the minute problems in life, rather than look at the whole picture and what quality I’m living in each day. The latter works much better from experience!
Well said Lee. Me too I absolutely can feel the joy Kathryn has shared. The joy literally pops off the page.
Yes agree Lee. Bringing yourself to whatever you do is the key- everything is amazing then and others can feel it.
I completely agree because if you do not bring yourself to what you are doing who are you bringing?
Great point Nicola, this points out so much.
Beautiful Lee, and so true – when we let go of facades and game playing, everyone we meet can feel that it is safe to be themselves too.
Indeed Nicola, if you are not bringing yourself who are you bringing?
…beautiful Abby, “..i connect to others much more deeply.’ Being in our superpower, by simply being us, that opens allows us to connect more deeply with another, and that is the blessing, how beautiful it feels when we truly connect with each other.
The beauty you share is how being all of us, is a blessing to everyone, an inspiration, life changing, that’s how powerful we are…and the joy to live us!
So beautiful. Kathryn has captured and described blessings at work perfectly.
Yes I agree Joanna. Kathryn has indeed captured very beautifully something we all know. We all know this or we would not so joyfully confirm what Kathryn has captured. We know it but do not give it enough attention – tending to give more attention to those things that are not of true expression. It is important to confirm both OURSELVES and others in true expression and true movement and connect to the immense power in it as Kathryn has shared with us.
Absolutely Karoline, the joy to live the beauty that is us in full! I agree very inspiring.
This is powerfully joyful and inspiring to the hilt, i just want to live all of me in my full presence…superpower….
It is deeply healing for the world to live ourselves in full – the inspiration for all others is powerful, palpable and equally available to us all.
Living the real day, in full is but a choice away should we say yes.
You go girl! We all love it when you do! Just as we love it when we do. One wonders why we are not this all of the time as it beats everything else hands down.
Beautiful Kathryn… I know exactly what you mean, not only by seeing other people in their expression and at the same time in their absolute power and beauty, but by experiencing it myself. When I am 100% with me and doing things- I can feel the shine and spark I spread. Amazing feeling and I know I bless the world the same time I do it.
How very enlightening and uplifting Kathryn, the people you describe are living life with full vibrant vitality, and you are matching that by describing them without holding back. No exaggeration, just the truth with the handbrake released.
And yet this living way is perfectly normal and everyday. This really demonstrates what is possible for us all when the handbrake is off and the accelerator on.
It is so beautiful to read this. The way you appreciate others is so inspiring Kathryn. In fact this blog shows it is one of your superpowers.
I agree, isn´t it amazing to hear such appreciation from one to another. It shows that Kathryn is appreciating herself aswell and thats definitely a superpower both ways 🙂
Agreed Leonne, one of Kathryn’s superpowers is indeed appreciation. Many find it difficult to appreciate others because they lack appreciation for themselves and instead of appreciate go into jealousy and comparison. Kathryn so clearly shows us here that the true way to go is appreciation, not only does it evolve those you are appreciating it evolves the appreciator as well. Continually lifting us higher and higher. True brotherhood in action.
I agree true super powers do not require that we wear our knickers on the outside but our hearts.
Laugh out LOUD!
Your sense of humour is a superpower Nicola – it is hard to make me crack up at 330am, especially when I am tired like today! Thank you for being you.
I agree too Leonne, appreciation of others can bring out more of their true beauty and more of ours also. If the world could change to this way rather than all the judgement, criticism and put down of others that is our current status quo, a lot of the misery, depression and suffering in the world would cease to exist.
“When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” This is a beautiful blog Kathryn. I so agree that our vulnerability is indeed our strength. When we do not hold on but express in full magic occurs around us. The world opens up and by ricochet for those in our life.
This too has been my experience Patricia – expressing who we naturally are.
Allowing for our tenderness, fragility and vulnerability, beauty, grace and grandness.
What an absolute complete package of heaven we are.
This is so true Deborah, to allow the fragility and tenderness is precious for ourselves and everybody around us.
Very true Patricia. My experience has been that people are busting to let their true expression out. They may have held onto it for so long that they don’t even realise there is more there but when they see someone being them in whatever they are doing it reminds them that there is a true expression there for them too and shows them that it is safe to let it out.
I agree that people are bursting to let their true expression out. As young children we were connected to our true expression, but were told it was wrong so often until we no longer trusted or connected to it and ourselves. When someone in their true loving power expresses from their essence it confirms within us that which has always been there. It also gives us the permission and confidence to start letting our true expression flow which in turn increases our confidence and inspires others!
I loved this line too. We seem to have created a society where we need to look around us first to decide if our behaviour is ‘allowed ‘. Well, if this is the case, then we shall work with this approach and then all it takes is one person living openly themselves for it to catch on, permitting one by one to also feel safe to express themselves.
We are so powerful when we express who we truly are and there is no limit in expression and nobody falls short as the uniqueness does not lay in the individualized from of expression, but in the quality we express with and divine quality is so spacious that there is always a deeper level to express from.
Universal Medicine for sure has helped me tremendously in restoring my vision and perception for these true superpowers that we all hold within and just need to let out.
So true Rachel, our true expression is uniquely what we have to bring to the world but it is of a quality that can be accessed by all. How this is expressed will be different between people but the quality that comes through can be equal between people.
Thank you Kathryn, this is a pure delight to read. What I loved about your blog was feeling the gorgeousness of you as I read it. As I read about every person you described it showed me how much you had taken that person in and see them for who they were and that in itself is utterly beautiful and a testimony to your ability to love people.
Beautifully expressed Elizabeth! I agree full- heartedly …
You are spot on Elizabeth. Kathryn has so fully engaged with others and appreciated equally their unique expression. There is a lesson in that for me.
I whole heartedly agree Elizabeth. You can feel the absolute love that Kathryn has for the people she writes about. This is inspiring.
It’s awesome to read all these examples as without an appreciation for ourselves it is rare that we feel appreciation for another and what they bring. When we appreciate ourselves and feel our own amazingness we can’t help but see and feel it in another and then it just wants to be shared. Thank you Kathryn.
Wow! What an awesome blog Kathryn. You have left me somewhat speechless…
So true Alison and that image shows the delicateness that we are, the preciousness, the beauty. I also love your second comment about the flower – and us – when we don’t look for recognition and acceptance just shining. Nothing more nothing less.
“….letting ourselves out and letting the world see,” is our true super power: I love it, Kate: Truth and fun all rolled into one!
A powerful and very revealing blog, Kathryn. It is such a joy to see someone in their true expression and amazing how inspiring the simple art of living can be when someone is connected to themselves and truly expressing their essence.
Yes Susan, its not something we have to work towards, its who we are, just may have been a bit buried and needs a sweep so that we can shine ! Its all there in all of us…
So beautifully said Kathryn. I know a woman who adores people so much that she is willing to see the truth of others and celebrate them to the hilt.
Well said Jennifer! Could you not feel Kathryn’s absolute joy and appreciation of people? Inspirational!
This is so true Alison, and Kathryn’s words are a testament to that. Love it.
Very inspiring blog. I love this part you said- “I know a woman who is grace in human form. When she walks, talks, waves, sits, stands, you name it, it is like she leaves a trail of pure grace in her wake.” “And when she smiles… wowzers!!”” It’s double strength.” “In truth, all women have In truth, all women have this grace even if it is buried deep, deep within.” “Just by being in the world, this woman is reminding other women that they too have a natural grace, while schooling them in how to live it.” I know a few women like that now and wow!! they are amazing…. claiming who they are in full.
Totally gorgeous Kathryn. You are so correct – it is truly mesmerising to see people work and carry out day to day tasks being completely themselves, and super joyful when they do it. Sadly many people in the world dread their jobs and ‘chores’ they have to do like going grocery shopping or cooking; I see this a lot with my teachers at school who don’t appreciate what they can really bring to the lesson and are battered down by the complicated syllabus they have to teach.
True Susie – its terrible to think that when we are dreading something that we are doing (at work, or chores at home) that this affects what we are doing, literally going into the job leaving it half done, or of poor quality. How different when we bring a sparkle and everything we can to even the simplest things.
Thank you Kathryn Maroney. I feel such inspiration in your words and can so easily see where we shine when we bring all of ourselves to a situation, offering that reflection to all others. Just shows how our superpower can be infectious and gloriously so.
The way you share about that guacamole makes me want to fly over and have a taste. Not so much for the guacamole, ok also, but mostly for meeting your friend. The way you share about the people in your life is absolutely contagious.
“The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!” Indeed Kathryn this super power requires no special effects, for this power works though inspiration, igniting another from the inside out, confirming equally the glory we all come from.
“How could I but learn what he had to share about computer use when he shared all of his gorgeousness first?” This is the game changer, for today we are missing this true connection to ourselves and hence the naturalness that then unfolds when we meet another.
“The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!” Indeed Kathryn, there are no special effects required to see this superpower only an inspiration that draws from the inside out and confirms the glory we all come from.
I love this Kathryn, ‘There is something glorious about a person letting themselves out and letting their natural expression flow. In fact, could our true expression be our superpower?’ This is what I am finding, that my natural expression is my superpower, when I’m working and i feel my natural playfulness and joy I can feel what an uplifting and joyful effect this has on others, it is quite incredible.
I could not agree with you more Kathryn, when you are with some- one that is expressing in full who they naturally are it is so inspiring. I was with one such woman yesterday, All day I was blessed by the grace and beauty she moved with which so inspired me to move with the delicateness I know myself to be. We are so blessed that we have each other as role models.
This amazing blog is an inspiration in itself. To know that each and everyone of us are very able to live everything that you share with us Kathryn – ‘super powerful’. “Just by being you and letting others see” is a beautiful place to start.
This blog is the antidote to jealousy – appreciating and confirming that the one true light we see in others is the same one true light that burns deep within ourselves.
Absolutely Liane, appreciation is deeply confirming of our oneness and our true expression is for all of us.
I can only agree wholeheartedly with both you Liane and Victoria, appreciation truly is the antidote to jealousy. Learning to deeply appreciate and love ourselves develops an openess toward, and an understanding of the deep value, uniqueness and beauty within all others.
This is so true what you share Kathryn – that by living the love that we are, we inspire each other to live the absoluteness of this love from deep within ourselves. We are the many different facets of the one sparkling diamond. When we shine, we shine for all. Problems only arise when we forget to see and appreciate those that walk beside us in the one and same light. In this chosen amnesia, we strive to ‘shine it all’ in desperation that others will see and recognise us, but this is a trap and one that has us constantly pitching ourselves against our equal brothers. When we shine our light for self and not for all, the light we shine is not the one true light that we are made up of and from, but the lesser light that moves in to take its place when the true light lies forsaken. In full illusion we are sold the fake diamond at the expense of the real deal we hold deep in our hearts.
It is beautiful what you are sharing here Liane, it is this true appreciation of each other that will lead us out of the confines of our own making.
“When we shine we shine for all”– the light of brotherhood in expression.
Love it Kathryn, making the ‘invisible’ visible simply by removing the mask we have over our eyes…now that’s a superpower! For too long we have gone with our chosen blindness to not see the incredible grandeur of what we carry deep within. Settling instead for a cheaper version that performs to set expectations of how we think we should be based on how we think others will perceive us. It is not until we give ourselves permission to shine with our full might that we truly begin to understand what we have kept hidden for so long. While a fictitious superman may well need the privacy of a phone booth to change into his costume, in truth our ‘costume change’ works the other way. It is only by dissolving our walls of protection that we allow others to truly see us for who we really are and let our natural magic shine out. Who needs a costume when transparency fits like a glove?
We are indeed super power when we allow our expression to flow freely, without the restrictions based on commonly held ideals and beliefs. It is truly needed in a society where there is an absence of uniqueness of expression but instead is an enormous sameness in all that is expressed as people are looking for acceptance and recognition and therefore are copying each other’s behaviours to reach these goals. Imagine if we all live this super power and allow our inner most to be expressed through us, how would our lives and societies look like then?
Its infectious too Kathryn. Reading your blog has made me contemplate all the amazing people in my life and how inspiring they are.
I love this blog Kathryn. It is a celebration of all the wonderful people around you that you are open to seeing. We don’t have to look far to be inspired. It just requires us to pay attention, and voila; all is revealed.
The love of other people in their essence that can be felt in this blog is infectious and a call to all to stand equally in their unique expression.
Thank you Kathryn for your blog, I found it both ‘powerful’ and ‘mesmerising’ to read as you use language to capture the essence and expression of others so beautifully.
My smile just got bigger and bigger and bigger as I read this Kathryn the joy of appreciating what another brings and how that reflects what we bring was infectious thank you so much for writing this it is wonderful to read.
And your comment made me smile ‘widely’ Vanessa McHardy. This comment is so full of joy and appreciation! It’s like you’re in complete union with the writer of this blog – Kathryn. Which is so beautiful to feel. Superpower, 2 times in expression. How powerful i it when we do really connect and appreciate each other in full. Letting each other’s qualities entirely in. Rather than compare ourselves to those people with their qualities.
Bravo Kathryn – a standing ovation from me. Love your blog – it says it all in true expression of your superpower! I wholeheartedly agree with everything you have said.
I love this Kate “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” When we accept ourselves more then we can let the walls of protection we carry around down. Now the world can see how truly gorgeous and powerful we are. We are inspirational powerhouses when we accept who we are.
I agree that just observing Serge Benhayon or being in his presence is enough to be deeply inspiring as way before anything physical we are all communicating energetically with each other. I have come to a greater understanding having read this blog that I too am capable of inspiring others in this way by simply being me.
Too true, Andrew: energetic communication is so very powerful! I find it a little strange that we have not acknowledged this until now, through Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon.
Yes, we are feeling energetic communication every moment. I received a text yesterday that was communicating much more than what was said but I could actually feel all of what wasn’t said as well. We are always receiving this unspoken language and can feel the particular quality it is delivered with. This IS very powerful as our expression affects all of us.
Yes, it’s interesting how the identical same words can be said in multiple ways and that what determines their meaning and value is the energy in which they are expressed. This alone would demonstrate the absolute validity of energy being the primary factor in expression and communication.
Yes, constant and consistent expression of Love and Truth without compromise – how gorgeous is that, Amita?
I saw a book recently on a bookshelf at a house I was visiting titled ‘speeches that changed the world’. We all know the power of expression and how it can change the world. These speeches are but a mere speck of what is truly possible if we truly express from our hearts who we are in the world with everyone we encounter in our day to day lives.
True Expression – Our Superpower! And what a gloriously, inspiring, superpower-full blog, Kathryn. Another thing I am coming to realise, is that with integrity and true expression, we have a wonderful opportunity in deepening our understanding of ourselves and with each other. “Just by being you and letting others see you, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice …. when you speak your truth, people hear”.
Kathryn, I really enjoyed your expression of appreciation for the people in your life who have inspired you. There are many in my life also, too many to name in one comment.
I love experiencing the many and varied expressions of others, when our own expression is appreciated and shared in full it has an equal quality that confirms our true essence and source, where all our expressions spring from.
Very true Victoria – it reminds me that I do not have to be like anyone else, to compare with another. Just be everything that I am in my own uniqueness and that will form part of the rich tapestry that we all bring as a whole to life.
What Serge Benhayon presents is so empowering, because everyone is seen as super powerful in his or her own expression. Beautiful blog, Kathryn.
Serge just sees you for who you are – all the other layers we put on, he sees through and supports with no investments, to let go of them. What a gift to know this man and to have his divine reflection to step in your own superpower.
Yes steffihenn, we are absolutely blessed to have this man, Serge Benhayon, in our lives, and the gift of his divine reflection to remind us of the truth of ourselves.
So true Felixschumacher8. Serge Benhayon knows absolutely the power of each human being and that there is glory in ‘a person letting themselves out and letting their natural expression flow.’ We too know this deep down and what Serge Benhayon is reflecting is that ‘letting out’ of this truth in FULL. Powerful indeed.
I love this Kathryn, one could not help but feel what potential the world holds if we all walked, talked and moved in our power. Makes me think of that great saying together we have the power to change the world.
We sure do have the power to change the world. I used to think I could change the world by my actions – it didn’t take long for me to become disillusioned. Now I realise the way I walk down the supermarket aisle has the power to change the world. It really is that simple.
There is no doubt that the inspiration and effect that Serge Benhayon has had on peoples lives is truly extraordinary for in realising they can live their expression in full too, the result is a mass of people living and sharing their true power and showing the rest of the world infectiously so how to live it too.
Yes, we have to say it loud and clear. If we are having this gorgeous dialogue it is only because of Serge Benhayon’s superpower that has helped us relentlessly to accept and start sharing our own superpowers.
It is in the simplest of ways that we connect to our superpowers – definitely no trying and no sweating to get it out, just an allowing of what is already within to come out in the full day for all the see. You know the expression ‘dance like no one is watching’ – well this is the superpower does but the difference is that you dance as you would if no one was watching yet in full knowing that everyone is watching and so they should be – because it will inspire and unlock for us all how to really let ourselves be seen for the beauty that we all are. Thank you Kate for reminding us all that we all have super powers and that it is time to show the world.
The superpower is not something we are granted or learn, it is the simplest thing of who we are. Imagine the riches of the world if we all danced in full.
Spot on Nikki – we are born with super powers, it is as natural to us as breathing gently as does a baby. And we were all babies once.
Yes, sad that we may have spent a lifetime learning how not to use them!
“Imagine the riches of the world if we all danced in full.” Thank you Nikki your words filled me with joy as I pictured a world of people dancing in their absolute glory and fullness, knowing that it time this will be the living truth.
I love this Henrietta, to dance like nobody is watching but in full knowing that everybody is watching. That to me is living with integrity and sharing that with the world. Letting people see you live a loving life is a healing for all.
So true Bernie, when we live with integrity and don’t hide this from the world, we are letting people see and feel this and hence are offering a healing for all! Not everyone will stop to feel and register this, and that is ok, for there are those who will stop and register and be inspired to do likewise.
So beautifully expressed Henrietta. The ‘superpowers’ are in truth just our natural way of being and the more of us that claim and live this so too will others realise themselves and this will become the new normal for us all.
Exactly Kate! this will become our NEW normal – but in reality there is nothing new about the new normal, in fact it is far older than we realise and we are simply re-turning to a truer way of being. Because we are backtracking in effect, then we don’t have to learn how to do things from scratch as we have already done it…so really it is just simply about reminding ourselves of the path of return to expressing the super powers that lie within and so often forgotten about in our society. This goes to show that the word NORMAL is often used misleadingly in our society – “Normal” does not mean that it is something that we commonly do or are familiar with or most people indulge in (for example just because you get beaten up or abused every day does not mean that this is a natural and normal thing to experience) – ‘normal’ is actually what is deeply within us to naturally do and lovingly so, innately expressed with each other.
Thank you for your beautiful comment Henrietta.
Lovely Henrietta, this is very true. When another is fully expressing themselves it does unlock and inspire others to do the same. We often don’t grow up with this ‘permission’ to shine too bright in case we are seen to be ‘full of ourselves’. In truth there could be nothing grander than being full of ourselves, it is not a selfish expression, as when we shine is for all of us.
Spot on Victoria – it is not a selfish expression, it is a SELF-FULL expression when we shine for all. And this can act like the wake after a boat which makes it easier for others to follow suit or do likewise.
WoW. Kathryn thank you for sharing your superpower! The ability to connect deeply within and feel inspired by firstly your own divinity and then that of others. When we let people see the ‘real’ us we start a flaming chain reaction of love.
And this chain reaction is just a joy to behold. It is incredibly beautiful to see, what an amazing beauty and power comes to light in everybody choosing to show and live their real self.
Yes and it extends out further and wider than what we realise.For some its a full celebration of the ‘real’ them and for others its a little by little acceptance that blossoms and grows.
And the beauty is that we need do nothing but be the light and joy that we are, others cannot but feel this within themselves, and whether they are ready to live this or not, just yet, a seed has been planted which will inevitably blossom in time, to go on and plant seeds in others. How simple, yet profoundly beautiful.
What a fully gorgeous blog! It’s really brought appreciation to all I see in people and this true expression being central to life. It is a real ‘stop moment’ when I see someone fully expressing who they are, just looking in their eyes or seeing them move is enough. It’s a true joy in life to know others, to see others not hiding but expressing is very healing as it opens the door for others to feel safe to do so also.
In one of my favorite songs at the moment ‘Messenger’, Andrea Leonhardi of Heaven’s Joy sings about us all being messengers of love and us not having the right to hold our true light back, since everybody deserves the fullness of us. And I agree, that is what we are here to do, share ourselves and express in full. Serge Benhayon is certainly a living example and inspiration for me. As are you and the gorgeous examples you gave, Kathryn.
Heck I am so with you Kathryn Maroney. You have inspired my day to appreciate the detail in my expression and the true power it offers to all.
Yes definitely Marcia. Our expression is nothing other than being who we are and letting that out. I too am inspired to appreciate the details of my expression – how I cook, how I walk, how I move…
Here here Marica, “appreciate the detail in my expression..” Each of us have the detail of our expression, and as we share our expressions, the world would become such an inspiring home for us all.
What a beautiful reminder of how glorious we all are and how our own unique way of being and expressing brings so much to the world.
Yes Penelope, a beautiful, simple reminder that has stayed with me long after I read it. When anyone holds that back we all miss out.
The beautiful thing is that each and every one has its own and unique expression from his/her essence. This is absolutely charming whatever this may be. We are all different in this expression but all the same in having it – having our inner superpower.
And if we support each other and add up our superpowers even more is possible.
This is called then one-unified truth, Michael. 🙂
How this fact erases individuality in one go! We are superbe in many shapes and forms . No one is better or less. It is not about the activity, it is about the sparkle in your eye, the connection you allow towards people, the way you move, how you touch, how much and in what way you love. No one is like you, but nobody is more- isn´t that awesome?!
And to be as we truely are in our essence and expression is exactly what is needed to bring this world again to where it belongs to.
The joy in your words about equalness is contagious!
Looking at the fact that we are all one, from one same source, but so amazingly unique and different in our expression remind me on a clockwork. If we but all step in our power and claim what we are here to bring, than the whole can work in a flow. We wouldn’t waste time trying to be a cog we are not: smaller, bigger, thinner, slimmer what ever. We all have our own quality – and that not without a reason.
Love that Chirstina – we are all unique, and at the same time we are all equal.
Really feeling the power of us all living and working as one and the immensity of what we can do when we are one – and only when we are one for this is when we connect to true Power.
You’re saying it Simon! It’s both at the same time – that’s the beauty of equal: nothing’s better or more needed than another or anything!
You name it, Richard. The thing is, that we are always trying to be perfect in what is needed and what we do. But isn’t it first of all to be done with the absoluteness of ourselves in presence – and nothing more? There’s no need to work “hard” or be special. It’s a surrender with a self loving discipline.
True true Christina Hecke, I like your example with the clockwork. So sensitive but beautifully working together.
Yes Christina, we all have our unique quality and expression, and like clockwork, every cog and wheel has its job to do, with many different sizes and shapes, some turning on a smaller or larger rotation, all are working in perfect rhythm, allowing something larger than the individual parts, in this case the clock, to work with absolute precision, just as life can be.
Yes, Rosemary! It is not only “allowing something larger than the individual..” It is also seeing the purpose and the need of claiming and keeping the all of us. That it is not about us or being devote to a larger, but being humble to what is everyones job to do whilst being absolutely equal.
Beautiful Christina, I totally agree.
I loved reading this interactive conversation… true brotherhood in expression, the joy is contagious.
What Kathryn’s joyful blog does is invite us to be open to the fact that each human being brings a uniqueness in terms of superpower when he/she let his/her true expression out.
I love the way you have expressed so beautifully that we are all different in expression but all the same in having it. Thank you Sonja.
“When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.” simple and powerful statement of the power living within us if so choose it.
Yes, when our expression comes from the connection we have to all that is within us, it is truly inspiring and is felt and recognised as ones own.
And the responsibility that we have – whether we choose it or not!
Yeah that’s such a great sentence – Reading that line it’s never felt more important to walk what I know is true and speak what I know is true. How else will true change happen?
Meeting Serge Benhayon is a transformational experience as you get to feel the power of someone who walks, lives and breathes who he truly is and the simplicity of it.
Amazing to feel that one man started this all. Serge Benhayon by being willing to reflect his love and understanding in a world that often did not and does not want it is truly remarkable. Thanks to his love, dedication and commitment, we now have hundreds equally reflecting that love and commitment and so on and so on it will go until everyone remembers the truth of who they truly are; Pure and utter divine love.
Wow Kate – awesome, awesome blog!! Gold from beginning to end – “I know a woman who is grace in human form. When she walks, talks, waves, sits, stands, you name it, it is like she leaves a trail of pure grace in her wake. And when she smiles… wowzers!! It’s double strength.” this paragraph made my whole body smile – as I knew that was also me. Its all of us when we allow ourselves to let go and surrender to all that we are and bring. I love your playfulness and will no doubt want to read this over and over again!
Yes, these examples are just a snippet of what we can all be in true expression.
I read this blog written by this amazing woman, you could just feel the power of her expression in every word, her appreciation for others is second to none, and I know that when others read her blog, they will be inspired to consider all the amazing people they know and will feel how truly spectacular and loving everyone is in their true essence.
Yes! “I know this woman who writes wondrous blogs that explode with appreciation of others, with a joy and wit that ignites the reader. She writes with such a deep knowing of the absolute gold that we all have, that I am inspired by her every word to be everything that I can be.”
Oh Otto you are pure love, thank you. “I know a man who’s eyes, smile and in fact his whole face just melts my world, he reminds me daily that there is a God on earth who deeply loves and understands. His love allows me to surrender and know all will be okay in the world and that no matter what we are all going home.”
Very true Lisa, when we read, watch, listen to someone appreciating others in this way it inspires us to consider those we observe in our own lives. It also inspires some appreciation of ourselves and what we bring. I have had a fair few experiences of having fun working out with friends and family what we each bring and the flavour we do it in that is so special for those around us.
Love how this piece is written very refreshing.
Your are right, every bit explained in this blog should be appreciated. I know my life is more rich when I fully appreciate the amazing qualities of those around me.
I agree, Luke: it’s as though appreciating others actually expands the one expressing the appreciation 🙂 It certainly confirms them!
I agree Luke and when I appreciate the amazing qualities I bring, I often blow myself away. I know this allows me to be in the full appreciation of others and the qualities they bring to be in the awe of who we are and the part each of us plays within the whole.
Well put Marcia
Kathryn your blog inspired me to have an awesome day. I felt so good when I was just being me, no holding back, and everyone I met left with a smile on their face. Now that felt super easy and fun.
I know a woman that knows every human being is precious. This woman reminds people that the gifts they have been given are made for sharing. She lights up the room and every time I look into her eyes I am reminded that we are divine. When this woman writes a blog she leaves you in with no doubt you are loved and treasured for simply being who you are. You are confirmation incarnate Kathryn Moroney.
Truly expressing who you are is so liberating, but it is also inspiring observing someone express in their fullness, who they truly are. All the examples you gave are pure gold and such wonderful insights into what true expression is and means. Great blog, absolutely loved it.
I agree Alison, Kathryn’s expression is super-powerful, reading her deep appreciation and love for the people in her life brings joy to my heart and a smile to my face.
Thank you Kathryn for reminding us what is possible when we express in full. I feel inspired to truly see and appreciate the joy and beauty in others, and to equally let my grace and beauty shine out into the world.
Yes, you blow me away rosemarydunstan!
Your true beauty, grace and love is a deeply felt never ending inspiration Marcia Owen!
An inspiring read. “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same. The true superpower is not invisibility, the power to fly or anything else that would enhance our physical capabilities in life: way more powerful is letting ourselves out and letting the world see – this is the impetus of true change!” Being and showing our true selves – that allows others to do the same – no more masks and hiding. No more playing small. Thankyou Kathryn.
I think you’re right Kathryn, when we live our true expression, it is a superpower. Everyone can feel it, know it or not, and by seeing and feeling it, in these examples of people you describe, we are all inspired to take the opportunity to live in the same full expression of ourselves. Our true expression is a superpower within us all.
I know this to be of absolute truth; ‘One workshop, one conversation – heck, one pass of this man in the hallway is enough inspiration to transform lives and see miracles happen… and for many, many people, this is exactly what seeing Serge in his full glory has led to.’
Wow Kathryn, your words are really coming alive. What a joy to experience; this inspiration and celebration of people expressing who they are is felt everywhere because of you expressing you! It is very infectious to read and feel, thank you Kathryn.
Reading your blog I left with no doubt at all that we have something truly, deeply awesome to bring – and just how much it changes the world when we bring it!
Reading your blog this morning was a beautiful celebration of how we all can be when we allow our true expression out. What a great read at the beginning of the day, or in fact any time of day.
Absolutely gorgeous blog and so inspiring. Thank you Kathryn.
I agree Amanda, Kathryn shows us what is possible when we do not hold back and simply bring all of ourselves in full.
Awesome Kathryn, truth and bringing all of us in every moment sure is a great superpower, one we all have equally so. We think we can hide our superpowers but really everyone can see them!
There is nothing more glorious than a man or woman expressing the truth of their beingness. This is true living. It is the embodiment of Love in movement, in word, in preparing food, in driving a car…in whatever that person chooses to do and it is open to us all. How beautiful is that. Thank you Kathryn for the Love you share with us all.
In the amazing superpower that Serge Benhayon is, he is only ever just being himself. This is at the heart of what is so inspiring, because if that is just who he is, then it raises the question, what lays beneath in all of us, when we are just ourselves too? And are we also really that powerful too?
Thank you Kathryn for sharing so many awesome examples of people truly expressing that have inspired you and doubtless countless others and will continue to do so thus demonstrating the power of reflection and the simple truth that ‘When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.’
What a joy to of read this blog this morning. The saying ‘to lead by example’ and your sharing with us all certainly does that Kathryn,with true inspiration. In your words “When you let the person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same”. Super powerful and a reminder that we can all make such a difference in the world by living and expressing in our fullness.
‘Superpower’ is such a great word and you have just broken the consciousness that it is reserved for a selected few superhero’s! We all have great MIGHT so let’s bring it on!
This amazing sharing brings me to a place of appreciation, deep appreciation the kind that acknowledges there is so much, beauty, and exquisite, gentle, wise people out there and what they offer is a true gift to all of humanity. I have held back with my own expression for too long as I too (as do everyone) have these same gifts. Time to get off the comfort couch and letting out that superpower that is just bursting to be shared.
It is wonderful that Serge Benhayon and an ever growing number of people are an inspiration that there is another way to live and change the world for us all. ” Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.”
Wow Kate, this is expression at its most powerful – I smiled and nodded in agreement all the way through and am feeling to go straight back to the beginning and read your wonderful words all over again without delay. I too have learned that true expression and power comes from letting people in, dropping the masks, the shields and stepping out of the roles, and letting them see and feel of all me, not the watered down version I presented to the world for so long. I agree without a shadow of doubt that true expression has the power to change the world – and it will!
How joyful to read, inspiring me to bring more of MY gorgeousness in my every expression. Thank you Kathryn.
Absolutely beautiful celebration of people who are living their true expression. I am still not quite there myself as I was pretty good at being the invisible man but I do know the real me will get out one of these days.
Don’t wait too long Kev – we are missing out!! lol
Seems your not so invisible these days Kevmchardy, and many are waiting to see more.
Wow. Kathryne. “People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world” – I love this. So true. It is our being that counts and matters first and foremost. That’s what we all have in common whatever we do, and when someone is expressing and living that in full, we are being blessed with the opportunity to ignite that equally in ours. Just reading your offering here, there was something I could also recognise in myself too but not yet fully expressed, and it is so inspiring to feel this more-ness as our true potential.
This is amazing and a true account of life, I love your sharing “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” This really is changing the world by allowing us to simply be who we are and the inspiration from Serge Benhayon one man showing the world who he is in full and how he lives his glory is simply allowing amazing changes to the world and our lives and is miraculous and super cool and his love is deeply felt as is our own by reflection.
Oh wow, I just love, love love this blog! Thank you Kathryn Maroney!
I absolutely see the quality of people and what a joy it is to receive their essence in full before they do a thing or speak a word. Bringing this appreciation to others is deeply nurturing for our love as brothers as it builds our celebration and inspiration of who we are. How very delightful!
I agree Cherise – Just gorgeous and inspiring. I love the reminder of appreciating and celebrating who we are … deeply so!
Loved it the second time too!
Oh wow Kathryn! I absolutely loved reading this. Your appreciation is a super power in itself and has supported me enormously to see things in a deeper and different way. I’m going back to read it again!
This is a beautiful account Kathryn of the healing and joy we receive when we are with someone who is expressing themselves in full. “It is powerfully inspiring to see true expression in action.” It is inspiring because we allow ourselves to relax and know that all we need to do is be ourselves and bring all of who we are into each moment, this spreads love like wildfire.
Inspiring people in every facet of life – Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon lead the way in living from the truth within. It is simple to connect to who we are and this is what is so celebrated in your words Kate – we are all amazing – each and everyone of us has our own expression to let out, to be seen and to inspire another.
I agree Lee and this is what i appreciated about Kathryn’s sharing, is the love and inspiration that every one of us offers when we let ourselves be seen ‘naked’.No holding back and open to be seen.
Too true Marcia – being completely surrendered to ourselves allows everything else to fall away – this ‘nakedness’ allows us to know and deeply feel who we are, why we are here and how we can inspire others just by holding ourselves in utter grace and love.
Great message Kathryn that our ‘superpower’ is just in us being ourselves. We are all equally powerful and can have an impact without trying to be anything other than ourselves.
True Annie, because there is no one better in being ourselves than us ourselves.
And it is what is needed for the whole universe, nothing more, nothing less.
True expression comes out at all angles. It’s how you walk, talk, and move. Its doesn’t impose, judge, or play any emotional games with you. It simply expresses what is there to be expressed at that given time, no more and no less. True expression is truly inspirational.
Beautifully said Eleanor, expression is true beauty in motion, and confirms we are all made of the same light. One can not help but feel that true expression comes from the one heavenly source that we are all connected to.
A spunky expression of appreciation for the many people who have inspired your way Kathryn. Everything you’ve shared about Serge Benhayon is beyond fact as he walks the talk with more commitment to humanity then I have ever felt before. Passing Him or meeting his eyes is indeed enough to ignite the dampened fire within our inner-hearts.
Thank you Kathryn, I enjoyed the way you elaborated so gloriously on how our expression is everything we do and we all have an equally powerful way to bring all of ourselves to the world. There was such a great feeling of celebration in your writing – the celebration of everyone. It was superbly uplifting and joyful to read.
Dear Kathryn, what a super-duper-powerful words you’ve written here. No doubt about your own Superpower when it comes to true expression:-). This is super-empowering and super-inspiring to read. All the examples I could feel all through my screen, the honouring, the appreciation, the inspiration, the admiring, the passion for superpower, the tenderness, but above all the power of your words. They went right through me, reminding and confirming my own Superpower in expression. What an absolute joy to read and receive. And what a purpose is felt!
Very inspiring reminder to let the world see who we truly are because in doing so we can inspire change in another. Doing this doesn’t bring us a super power and make us mightier than others. It’s there already, in all of us equally, just waiting to be tapped.
All we have to do is to remember to turn the tap on!
Beautiful Kathryn, I can feel the depth of appreciation in all that you have shared here. It is true that out greatest superpower is not hiding – being all of who we are in each and every moment.
Nor is our greatest super power invisibility! I tried that one, it didn’t do much. 🙂
Really well said Kathryn – true expression is our Superpower, one that is for the benefit of all – “When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.”
Absolutely to enjoy life like this is something Serge Benhayon has inspired in many, to bring more of how they truly are out to be enjoyed by others.
It’s true Kristy, life is to be celebrated with others, and this is something Serge Benhayon loves to do.
And Serge does it so naturally – not an ounce of trying to be seen! He simply is a living breathing example of how he lives consistently 24/7.
I love the truth of what you express here Kate, and how our own natural essence has a huge impact on others, so why not bring it first up.
Awesome blog Kathryn, my life has been deeply touched by many people that I recognize in your writing. It is so awesome to be around people who are just being themselves and sharing themselves fully with you. Its inspiring and also feels so good when there is no front or act that you have to see through.
It is the most inspiring thing to see what is possible when we just surrender to being ourselves and like Kathryn shared, each person brings something and when you put that first, it makes what ever your doing secondary but more magnificent than if you focussed on the task only. It is the super power.
What is so inspiring about your blog is your celebration of who all these amazing people are in their essence – it is not about what they do. Your love and appreciation is strongly felt, Kathryn.
I agree Carmin. Impossible not to be inspired by Kathryn’s love, appreciation and celebration of the essence of these amazing people.
It is powerful in of itself Carmin, it just blows you away with love. A true pleasure to read.
How blessed is your life Kathryn. It is awesome to feel how much you love and appreciate all these incredible people.
Yes I love the way you have expressed your appreciation of and highlighted all that these people bring. It is truly inspiring to know people like this as they light up the world and offer this reflection to many others as Serge Benhayon stood in his all and offered the same through true expression – brilliant thank you!
The title says it all…. expressing in full of who we truly are is powerful yet at the same time truly natural for we all have at some moment of time lived a true expression, and this is what we miss the most.
Great blog Kathryn – I’m reading this right before an important meeting where usually I would completely close and hide myself. I now feel empowered to go in there and let them meet the real me, thank you ❤️
I have a smile on my face and joy in my heart from the true beauty and power of your words Kathryn. We light the world up from the inside out and I am inspired to let my superpower out for all to feel!
What your blog also reminds me of Kathryn is to appreciate everyone we meet as each has something to offer us in way of reflection, as we do to them too. And in that appreciation comes understanding of others and ourselves, and we come to see the beauty in each other, and the love that is there to be shared…and harmony in relationship with others. This way of expressing, and living, changes the world!
Beautiful Kathryn, its so true, our innate essence is most definitely the “kryptonite to the most hardened heart.” There is little that can resist the true power of love, when we allow ourselves to unleash it. Those you mention in your blog are the ones who have allowed themselves to re-connect to it and ignite the world around them with such beauty, tenderness and true fun. We are walking gold mines of grace, beauty, joy and harmony, why in the world are we not letting it out?
After reading your sharing Kathryn, who could not want to share all of themselves with the world!. Uplifting and inspirational and a delight to read, thank you.
A joy to read Kathryn…inspiring all to true expression, fully claimed as the gorgeous men and women we truly are! Thank you – an inspirational start to my day!
Wow Kathryn, this post is appreciation in it’s finest form. Amazing how you’ve described all these people with the qualities of their essence and not by how they dress, what the specifically do for a job or with any comparison or judgment.
Kathryn what a beautiful flow of loving expression, sharing with us all you have felt about the people you have been truly met by because they dared to share all who they truly are. The appreciation you described I can feel is equally applied to yourself which in this day and age is a beauty to behold with so many of us holding deep self-worth issues. Thank you.
Super blog Kathryn. I love how you lead us through your inspiration and how it all comes back to the choices of one man, showing us that it is possible to live who we are in a world that is telling us the exact opposite. As he always says ‘expression is everything’. Thank you Kate, for your awesome expression.
It is beautiful feeling your expression in this blog Kathryn. I love what you have shared here that it really is so simple, be all of overselves in whatever it is that we do and it no longer matters what we do, we shine, we emanate, there is joy, there is fun, just by being ourselves. Deeply inspiring and a great reminder to not hold back my superpowers.
So inspiring to read how you see in everyone their beautiful quality and what they bring to the world. Is just gorgeous to appreciate everyone in this way – you inspired me a lot to see what everyone brings too.
‘When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same… – this is the impetus of true change’. This is the true gift of healing we humans have the ability to offer each other. There is no performing, entertaining, teaching, coaching, mentoring in this, quite the opposite in fact, just a willingness to be real and vulnerable and honest.
I am left smiling bigly after reading this – – wow how GRAND is your inspiring expression! Thank you 🙂
I am ‘smiling’ too! and I would love to express that the quality of you Kathryn Maroney in being yourself and expressing this fantastic blog confirms that you reach across the world for all to feel when you choose this. Through computer screens and in our hearts, expressing who you are is a joy indescribable and yet deeply, profoundly felt.
The beautiful quality and deeply held essence of love that is being lived by all of the people mentioned in this blog is coming out in expressions available to us all. This quality and essence of love is available for expression if/when we choose to bring it. The breadth of ways we can all express will be unique to who we are and the rippling effect of joy that will unfold will change the world. Thank you Kathryn for sharing this joy and inspiring awareness in each of us, that we too can be a living way in this brotherhood that is humanity.
Super-heroes had super amazing powers and I love that you write that being ourselves and bringing that to all that we do is a super amazing power and can change the world. Seriously. We can be super-heroes when we let our own natural essence/expression out into the world – the world hums when we do that as you have so gorgeously expressed!
Thank you Kathryn what a beautiful expose that our true expression is our superpower. It is so true and when we see superpower in action it is always coming from our Divineness from within our bodies brought out into the world to shine in its gloriousness. If we could only see how amazing we all are by dusting off the covers to brilliant light, but until we can actually see we just have to know this fact and act in accordance with it.
As humans, expression is how we do anything, to take a moment to consider the fact is powerful indeed, to recognise further still that in knowing who we are, accepting all that we in truth are, quite naturally true expression is but the only way of being – your appreciation and expression of such is gorgeous to feel Kathryn, thank you.
A super inspiring blog Kathryn. Thank you.
Yes Kathryn, the pictures that we have in our head of what we think we need to be, get in the way of expressing our true beauty. Perfection is absolutely alien to those kids sketching joyfully and in truth its something foreign to you and me. For we are perfectly powerful when we embrace our essence fully.
Kathryn what a lovely delicate blog. What a great reflection and inspiration you have presented.
Kathryn, this is a gorgeous blog and pretty inspirational. Why are we holding back from being the superpower we can all be- that is the question!
The appreciation just oozes from this blog with a rich combination of joy and truth. This leaves more than a smile, but a deep awaking in our hearts to expand and let ourselves out!
No holding back for your appreciation, Kathryn! It is awesome to read, and so true what an amazing difference one person can make to all those around them when they are being themselves in all of their fullness.
Kathryn you bring words alive. Reading your words is like having each person standing right in front of me, feeling their very essence. Thank you for making it so clear that our superpower is simply our true expression and how very inspiring, healing and enjoyable that is for all to feel.
Appreciation as it has never been done before! I feel the beauty of all of those people even more so because of what you have expressed Kathryn. Showing people the real you, the real everybody.
The way you’ve described people in this blog Kathryn, is a WOWser in itself. What a colourful and vivid description. You’ve allowed these people to come alive off the screen! There is no trying needed with True Expression, it just is and once we’re tapped in there’s so much flow AND it’s so much FUN when we’re just being ourselves.
Kathryn I love when you write “People bringing themselves to what they do is mesmerising and powerful beyond measure. Just by being you and letting others see, you truly have the power to change the world. When you walk you, people notice… when you speak your truth, people hear.” There is nothing more simple, more honest, more pure, more delicate, more loving, than feeling the absoluteness and the joy of them just being them. It is contagious, and to even feel this for but a second allows us the opportunity to know we too can be this for ourselves also.
This is so inspiring Kathryn, it’s a beautiful example of how light shines in and through these people you describe. The love is palpable and these examples show us how we all can truly be shining lights as well.
I love this Kathryn! There are no Batman capes or Spiderman webs anywhere in sight, just extraordinary ordinary people letting themselves out and the world in! Now ‘that’s (!)’ super powerful!!
Angela I love that – no Batman capes or Spidermen webs – it is truly amazing how amazing ‘ordinary’ people are when they allow themselves to express in full – and as you say, no fancy costumes needed.
It is that simple Angela. Letting people in has brought my expression out. Heaven celebrates when we do.
Gorgeous Kathryn. Your expression has uplifted my day too!
This is gold Kathryn, the smile on my face comes straight from the heart.
Wow what a joyful blog! I love this re-interpretation of super-power and all the examples of super-powerful beings you have shared with us. We don’t have to physically fly to be super-human we can be the same by simply being ourselves and bringing the qualities of love, joy, with humour, stillness, grace, beauty and tenderness with us wherever we are, in a way that inspires others and changes the world.
Very true Kehinde. There are many super-powerful human beings who are quietly going about their days but bringing these wonderful qualities to life without any rah-rah or drama. They are a true blessing for humanity and an inspiration that brings loving change to the world.
Lovely to read your inspiring cameos of this that inspire you and everyone else. Shine on, I say.
Kathryn, with this blog you leave an endless trail of love, joy, inspiration, true appreciation and beauty. I have a big smile on my face after reading this, thank you, it will not go away anytime soon….
Me too Mariette, this blog is like a wave of appreciation, joy, love and warmth rolling over me, that smile isn’t going away either from my face.
Me too Mariette. One inspiration after another…I challenge anyone to not feel joy after reading this!
An absolute pure delight to read and feel! I so agree Mariette this is a blog that will stay with you long after it’s read as it inspires you to know that who we are is all we ever have to be.
Yeah there are many people in my life who could fit into the different descriptions you share.
Kathryn what an amazing celebration of these people and the expression they bring! You describe lives full of joy and grace, power and humility, therefore what more could anyone offer then than their own true expression? One of your lines really stood out; “Just by being in the world, this woman is reminding other women that they too have a natural grace, while schooling them in how to live it.” – ALL of these true expressions are lessons on how to live – now there’s true education!
‘ALL of these true expressions are lessons on how to live – now there’s true education!’ Absolutely Rosanna inspiring children and adults to just be themselves and tap into their own creativity.
So true Kathryn, it is so wonderful to see people who just love being who they are, in their absolute essence – nothing to do with clothes, what they do, earn, or anything else that, as a teenager, I thought gave you kudos, and value. It is in being completely at ease with who you are and letting that sing out in everything you do. I had probably seen it in children before meeting Serge Benhayon but I certainly didn’t consciously understand what I was seeing, why it was so inspiring and also why it was at times such a challenging reflection that could bring out a sadness in me for not living all of that in me. The workshops and courses I have done with Universal Medicine really gave me an understanding and practical tools to build this way of living in myself. Tools and understanding to go back to the essence of who I am, date myself again and then build a way of living that had that joy, love, play-full-ness, integrity and commitment to life as its foundation. Enormous appreciation of your blog and giving me the opportunity to appreciate all that Serge Benhayon and so many other people who live around me, near and far, bring to our lives as a reflection of how to live that delicate deliciousness in this crazy world.
I agree Lucy, “it is so wonderful to see people who just love being who they are, in their absolute essence”. Today I can feel how different my body feels compared to yesterday and how my expression is adjusting to what is needed right now to honor my body. It just feels simple. There is no way I can loose myself then, and no excuse to confirm me when I do express.
“When you let a person see the real you, you are showing them that it is safe to do the same.” This is the manifestation of superpower and is personified by Serge Benhayon
When we share true responsibility the respect and reverence that is received is the humblest of experiences. For me my ‘super power’ is to live in a way that is a true reflection of how I live responsibly for all my actions and choices.
Gorgeous Kathryn… your own expression is deeply inspiring too as it ‘takes one to know one’, as the saying goes! Really what I feel from what you’ve expressed is how deeply we all ache to express in this fullness and with such connection to ourselves and our natural impulses. Thanks for the reminder… very beautiful!
Thank you for sharing your appreciation of the people who inspire you Kathryn. By expressing this in the way you have so beautifully I now really understand how simple it can be to just be ourselves in all that we do.
Kathryn, a great blog! We really do live below what we are capable of feeling and doing. I couldn’t agree more with what you say about seeing others live in their vitality and fullness. And there is nothing better than feeling your own power, connection and wisdom when it is lived fully in the world. I’ve been inspired by Serge Benhayon and many other students who live what this amazing man brings to humanity.
Wow very strong powerful expressing Kathryn, I love it and I love the examples of what true expression is.
“delicateness and strength existing together” – love it Kathryn, they are truly two sides of the same coin.
Kathryn, what a power-filled celebratory blog this is. You know so many deeply inspirational people and I am blessed to say that I can equally share the same. It’s true that because of Serge Benhayon “thousands of people worldwide have now been inspired to unlock their own true expression.” I am one of those thousands and to see so many equally transform has been the most amazing gift. I agree – true expression is our super power.
Wow kate, talking about superpowers, this is a super powerful blog. I was there with you in every word. I absolutely agree that our true expression is our superpower and I could feel yours throughout this amazing blog, thank you.
What an inspirational read Kathryn, each paragraph led to the next revealing yet more incidents of folk you have come across in your daily life that impacted your experience so beautifully and honestly, obviously just by being themselves. Thank you for sharing.
Kathryn – you talk of expression being our superpower – I would absolutely agree. I’ve always been expressive, perhaps in the past I kept this too myself, but recently as I start to claim who I am and my worth, and start to express to the world, it has without a doubt change my life completely. But not just me, I have seen my expression, or my reflection, be an inspiration for others, something I would never have considered possible 5 years ago. Expression is everything. To have a voice, move in a certain way, do things a certain way and live a certain way all counts. Every movement is important. To embrace that is very powerful indeed.
When I was a young man I expressed myself very little and felt it was safer to not say anything in this world. It has taken time but over the years my expression has evolved and grown in a way that today feels miraculous – truly. This is especially so of the past 5 years with the support of Chris James, Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine. Of all the things I have ever done to attempt to change how I feel, expressing myself and in particular the expression of Love and Truth is very clearly the most powerful. There is real transformation in embracing our expression – forget drugs, alcohol, sex, money et al – expression is where its at!
Wow Richard – today I see you as someone very open and expressive – what a beautiful change from where so many of us were; hidden and choosing to play small. Like you I agree that by simply starting to express it has been one of the most powerful changes I’ve ever experienced. Expression is everything.
I agree too hvmorden, just yesterday I had the most glorious day. It is a new marker for me. I can feel it today and I felt it yesterday. Why? Because I claimed me in my full expression. I honoured my impulse to allow what was there to just be. I made it about people. Expression is everything. I have so power-fully learnt it is through movement that you stay aligned through what your natural expression can be. If your not moving for yourself your expression is less and this influences your next quality of expression. Your expression is carelessly less or you have made it more by choosing it.
Love seeing people open up about their experiences of claiming who they are. It makes a huge impact on our lives and lives of others. We become a reflection. And by something as simple as our movements we can change the whole day.
