Blessed Be ~ and God's grace!
EVERYTHING happens for a reason, and in its own time!
I am currently reading Path of Empowerment by Barbara Marciniak, I have had the book for 3-4 years and it was one of the few books I choose to travel with...NOW I know why!
I have always believed that if we could understand and know about our past lives we would make better choices in this one...in the book she says the same thing and that in healing and releasing the past wounds - that we tend to recreate in each lifetime (until we do figure it out) - we set ALL of our lives free from pain.
Every word is resonating deep within me...it's almost like someone is doing the happy dance with every page I turn, and I know that its no small coincidence that the book made its way into the 2 boxes of books I have travelled with this past year, and I recognize that no matter how many times I have picked it up to read, now is the time and this is the place. Funny how those things work!
She channels the Pleiadians who are here to help us at this important point in time.
Her website is http://www.pleiadians.com
I receive messages during sleep, I dream too. I have come to realize that they are not the same thing. A lot of my dream work has been about past lives and I can see that the same events have happened in this lifetime to one degree or another. So if you are perplexed by your dreams lately, or are dreaming more than usual, take a page from my book, it is about releasing the harm and pain done previously in that or this lifetime.
I am halfway through with the writing on the manifestation book. I may not make my original deadline of 9/9/09; the book has grown beyond my original concept of the simple 8 steps to manifest your desires that I discuss in the class.
I will tell you this; I am not the only one writing it, some days I feel like my role in it is to just be the typist. My new goal is to have it completed and ready for the editors before 9/21/09.
Back in 2006 I wrote in a letter to an old friend that my trip to Phoenix would change me and prepare me for a larger audience than the one I had in FL. I found that note last week while looking for something else I had written. Trust the psychic to write her own future!
Words have a power all their own which when charged with an emotional response become life.
Magic never died, it is still here within us whether we acknowledge it or not, our thoughts and words became our reality. Be careful what you wish for….
Blessings,
Diana

Today is August 26, 2009. Senator Ted Kennedy died last night at 77 from complications with brain cancer. I didn’t know Mr. Kennedy personally; he was a personality that seemed bigger than life to us, with all of the tragedies associated with him and his family. I remember weeping with them when John, Jr., his wife and sister-in-law where pulled from their plane wreckage in the Atlantic. I was too young to remember the death of his brother John Fitzgerald Kennedy by an assassin’s bullet but I recall the news footage of how Robert met his end in 1968.
I remember too all the excitement surrounding a car in a river that I could not pronounce or find on a map. The impact of that story haunted my dreams; I didn’t much care for bridges back then. Even as a toddler, I would cry and beg to be off of one as soon as possible when travelling with my parents. They had no understanding of the cause of my fear but I could feel the cold water below strangling the air out of my lungs. My oldest niece shares those hidden memories from a life long ago.
As I noticed the comments posted on Face Book about Senator Kennedy, one in particular struck a chord deep within me. Someone had posted that he had left the young lady riding in the car with him that fateful night to drown while he ran from the accident. The information buried within my memories didn’t match up to her accusation. And I wondered why she would post such a judgment considering that she is a source who others look to for spiritual guidance. I wondered what had happened in her own life to warrant such a harsh judgment of another.
Tonight there was a memorial of sorts on television for Senator Kennedy. It told how as the only remaining brother, he had taken on the surrogate father role for his brothers and sisters children. How he suffered from his own private demons just like the rest of us, and how he always strived to be of service to his country and fellow citizens. When the narrator told of how the car in the river incident had impact his run for president I got the feeling that the young lady’s life had not been wasted on some drunk irresponsible driver, but had been the life marrow for all that was to come under his guidance; the laws, the reforms, the attention that benefited all Americans not just a select few.
We never know what impact one single act is going to have on a lifetime. But I suspect that night in the river set the course for Senator Kennedy’s life. No, he would never reach the high office his brother held and every time he slipped in his own personal life, there would be cameras there to record it and people who would condemn him for being human and acting unwisely. It’s my belief that his mission here never included that office. His best work was done in the halls of Congress where he could be the voice of the common man and assist multitudes rather than serve 8 years as a figure head and disappear into obscurity.
We each face the condemnation of someone else’s judgment. It hurts to have a stranger tell you that you are worthless or label you without them understanding what the entire situation was about. As Christ told the crowd about to stone the woman, let you without sin cast the first stone. We do that, we throw stones at others without even thinking about the consequences for them or ourselves.
As a child, I was told that if you say negative things about others, you will soon hear them about yourself. As an adult, I have seen events happen in my own life that I judged unfairly in someone else’s. Judging is like opening the door and inviting the craziness in for a visit. I believe that it is one of the reasons Christ gave us clear instructions NOT to do it. But in our dualistic society, we compare, analyze, and judge everything, even ourselves without the benefit of the experience of the other person. We are not even qualified to judge ourselves. Even psychics don’t know everything about why one person did this instead of that.
The poster from Face Book held one incident from Kennedy’s life and made it her definition of him. Who is to say that God didn’t have a hand in that event? He usually does, and the impact is normally longer lasting than most of us can see at the moment.
Like a pebble tossed in a pond, the motion radiates out.
I admit I was shocked when I read it. Where was her compassion, her forgiveness for a fellow human who had risen about his own personal demons and stayed in the public eye in service to others? Here was a person who claimed to be a spiritual guide for others demonstrating her own lack of forgiveness. I have been judged by others and found lacking because they had no idea of the life experiences behind my decisions to respond as I had in the past. We all have!
If anything being judged erroneously should cure us from doing it, but alas we are still humans and until we really see from a higher perspective, we probably will do it again.
No matter who they are, or what they did, each of us is worth a moment of understanding, compassion and forgiveness. But for the Grace of God, go I. As we forgive others, even without the advantage of seeing the BIG picture, we allow ourselves to be forgiven. And the state of grace that exists within forgiveness allows love to grow.
So I forgave the poster for her knee-jerk post, and looked deeper within myself to see why it pushed my own buttons. She reminded me that as humans we react too quickly and speak without really considering the consequences. Her actions showed me the responsibility that spiritual guides have to their followers. Choose your words wisely; for they have a tendency to return to haunt you.
I weep for the lost of yet one more great man who truly sought to help his fellow humans, and add my condolences to those who knew his worth and loved him, and those who knew his weaknesses and loved him even more.
Rest well, Edward Moore Kennedy, your service here was greatly appreciated by a multitude of people you never met, but whose lives you touched everyday.
For the New Moon yesterday I created a New Moon Goals board - on it I placed one word desires like: abundance, clarity, Peace, acceptance, appreciation, etc..., written on green ink on heart shaped - pink and red - post-its, in a spiral around a card that has butterflies (transformation) and the words - "Believe in your dreams"
Over the years, I have found that God's instructions to "Ask and ye shall receive” are best filled if you allow for some creativity in the delivery. While a picture of a desired object is a good tool to have to focus, a simple description will work as well.
So instead of asking for a million dollars, I ask for abundance in all things. It is my belief that we are given exactly what we ask for, and it's not God's responsibility to edit our wishes, even if we were in line for something better and we asked for something of less quality or quantity. So I add the words "this or better" to my requests now.
I put the board, a 3x2 foot presentation board that I had used in moving to protect the glass in a picture, next to my desk where I write and play on Face Book so I can see it.
I was amused this morning when I noticed that my eyes fell on certain words - Abundance, Clarity and Peace. Out of the 20 items that I have arranged on the board, those 3 stood out this morning almost like they had their own personal spotlight.
Hmmm, this will be an interesting day.
Blessings,
Diana

Over the top
Recently a colleague told me that I was “Over the Top” when I responded to an article that she sent out that was filled with negative false information and I questioned its validity and asked which pill (the red or blue one) I’d need to take to agree with the rhetoric within it. I was poking fun, trying to lighten up the negative-ness of the message. She didn’t appreciate my efforts ~ oh well.
But her judgment of me got my attention. At first, my feelings were hurt…I doubt any one enjoys being judged (even when we do it to ourselves) Wayne Dyer says that when you judge someone you negate them…I felt violated and negated!
But then several days after the incident, I was meditating, waiting on a lunch date to arrive when I heard the Guides congratulating me on my graduation to a new level…in school I was always labeled above-average and now some one had finally acknowledged my new status – over the top! I could not stop laughing! My lunch date probably thought I had finally lost my mind until I explained the humor.
My motto for living as a spiritual being in a human form was best stated by Marianne Williamson in her book, A Return to Love:
Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are we not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that
other people do not feel insecure around you.
We were born to manifest the Glory of God that is within us.
It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone.
And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fears,
our presence automatically liberates others.
It’s hard to miss me when I enter a room. I am tall, blonde, with dimples and cast a huge shadow, so the concept of me playing small or hiding under a basket is beyond alien to me ~ impossible would probably describe it best. And to make it even more fun, I giggle at what the Guides are saying, and have been known (on occasion) to carry on a conversation with them no matter where I am. I was raised to speak when spoken to, besides they don’t appreciate being ignored. I do try to contain it if I am with someone else who might not understand, but most of my friends will ask me “What are they saying now?” especially when I start grinning and trying hard not to laugh.
We are all Over the Top, some of us are just better at hiding it than others. The day is coming when we will have no need to hide, step on up and let your light be seen and your voice be heard. It helps others to see that it’s okay for them to shine as well.
And after all, service to others advances all of our spiritual consciousness and evolution.
My favorite hobby is getting people to laugh, I have gotten good at delivering one liners with a straight face, just to see who is paying attention.
Life was meant to be fun and to be enjoyed, not to be some burden that steals all of the joy from our soul. Too much seriousness makes a human old really fast. So lighten up, giggle, go play with the children, they have the right perspective, it will de-stress you faster than popping a pill or a glass of wine.
Follow the Giggles….you will find your self surrounded by the Angels, Faeries, and Guides, all of Gods team shows up to play because they love to have fun too! Joyful and happy are our natural state of being….not the serious, overworked, stressed out, over-medicated physical beings we have allowed ourselves to become.
Lighten up!! Have you giggled today????
Today's media carries the following story - Sands hid fate of Gulf War pilot lost since '91 (AP)
AP - Navy pilot Michael "Scott" Speicher was shot down over the Iraq desert on the first night of the Gulf War in 1991 and it was there he apparently was buried by Bedouins, the sand hiding him from the world's mightiest military all these years.
**************
The current set of eclipses - especially the one on July 21/22 - are powerful enough to shed light on events as far back as 1991 and 1973. What was happening in your world then??? It might pay to have a look and prepare for the light that will be unearthing things for you.
My special will continue until 8/6 when the next eclipse takes place. This will be the 3rd in this unusual series.
Blessings, Diana
Every experience is important, I tell those who come to me, to be open to the material, keep what resonates with you, and leave the rest behind. There is no need to judge it, or those who choose to keep what you discard.
Not everyone is out to take advantage of another. The price of anything has a multitude of meanings. Some say that if it’s expensive it’s better. Others cringe if two items from the same place are priced 5 cents apart. Money is not real, it is used as a measure of appreciation, not as a sign of what something is worth. Too many people buy into the illusion. The store brand milk is the same milk as the higher priced brand named one. Let’s agree to look behind the curtain.
One of the reasons that I keep my readings and classes priced reasonably is so that more people can benefit from them. I see my mission here as one who facilitates spiritual growth. I am an ordained minister, Reiki master teacher, and I communicate with spiritual beings that have shown me more love and devotion than any human on this planet. I translate for others what their own guides (Angels, Teachers, and Spiritual Guides) have been trying to tell them. People find me because their guides know that I will be honest and ethical in my assistance.
As Shakespeare said "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
than are dreamt of in your philosophy." The more we connect to our spiritual side, the more things are opened for us to experience and remember about our true selves. One of the reasons that people fear psychics and those in tune to the Spiritual plane is because they don't see with the same limited vision. They see more. And recently more of the professional psychic/spiritual teachers are telling what they see and what they know in order to prepare others for what is coming. And that scares people who are still under the influence of the fear-filled control tactics. People who are afraid will seek to destroy that which they fear.
Each soul has a right to evolve and grow or not. It was why the instructions to 'judge not' were given. No one fully knows the life path of another - I'd say that more than half of the time, people don't even remember their own. Humans get caught up in the rules of being physical and buy into the dogma of man's religions, which were invented by man to control the masses, not to benefit their evolution or spiritual growth but to keep the reins of power in a few hands. History is written by those who dominate, a.k.a. the winners. Look at all of the information that was destroyed to prevent people from knowing that there was another way. Book burning was not new when Hitler did it.
Each of us comes with a purpose, we experience the physical, we show up and further the path of those we encounter, and we evolve or not on our own path. I have found that usually the meanest person I have experienced was my best teacher. They got me to stand up for myself and think about why certain people are in my experience instead of others that I will never know. Why is not the most important question. Too many people have to examine it, and label it after dissecting it, in order to understand it. The ‘why’s’ of life are not our responsibility.
I believe that we are presented with the experiences we need to grow, and that we are not required to understand all of them. I also believe that as more people move into a more spiritual view of life on Earth, we will see more people tossing out the 'rules of man' and moving closer to the 'rules of Spirit' as reflected in nature and natural experiences instead of man's religions.
There are a lot of beings on the Earth now to help facilitate the shift in consciousness that is needed to come out of the darkness that has enveloped humanity for the last 2000 years. It amazes me that people doubt there are intelligent beings in our Universe. Even the Bible says in Genesis that God created another being before he created Humans. Why should we doubt that we have had life experiences on other planets, or as other life forms? That seems a bit small minded when you are dealing with the infinite. Anything is possible.
In my opinion, it comes down to man’s need to control others, and diminish them as much as possible in order to feel safe about their own selves. That mind-set got us slavery and discrimination based on race, gender, nationality, etc., and more wars than we can count. In truth, it was a great opportunity to rise above the baser instincts and grow beyond the fears that have dominated our lives for centuries.
And now we are presented with a golden opportunity to advance to a higher plane of consciousness which allows us to lay down the weapons of fear and embrace our individuality not as a confirmation of our separateness but as a reflection of our true uniqueness and total connection with everyone and everything. When humanity ceases to see itself as separate from God and Nature we will all benefit tenfold. There is no need to control others, nor ourselves. It is time for us to move beyond those limitations and to experience the higher realms of Love and life.

It's a great deed to be happy. It unites the lower worlds with the upper worlds. That's all that's up there. Joy. Love. More joy.
Do everything with joy today. Every time you get into a swamp, think, "what can I find joy about?" Go from there.
from the Daily Kabbalah Tune Up and Yehuda Berg
The good news is that I finally found a “real” job – I start August 3 with a local accounting firm. We have a permanent place to live - I took over the lease from someone who had to move with their job. We actually have a couch and table with chairs. One of the multitudes of lessons I have gained from the last crazy year of being a gypsy is to appreciate the simple things that we all take for granted like a secure place to sleep at night, and a bed that belongs to us. It might not be seen as much to some, but I love my air mattress. My back does too! My thanks go out to Ginger for trading a chair for the bed.
A business acquaintance once called me a woman of raw steel and went on to say that all I needed was to be tempered into a fine sword. Well, you will never hear me say that to anyone. Having walked through the fire this past year, I fully understand what he meant. As the oldest child of four, I have always been responsible for myself and others. I have been the leader – getting to experience stuff first so that I can help others along their way. Life is all about gaining experience, learning how to deal with all the events of being a physical being without loosing touch with your true self.
I am extremely grateful for the Faith that God and Goddess have in my abilities to handle some of the tasks that I have endured. My Guides told me that I was following the path of Job. I had everything – a nice home, 3 businesses that supplied funding from my needs and desires, and a sense of self-worth that I now realize kept me isolated from others. So in their Infinite Divine wisdom, God and Goddess decided that it was time for me to graduate from the Material school and move on up to a higher level of education.
I lost almost everything including my beloved pet of 12 years. While I complained about the lost of the material things, losing Bandit ripped a hole in my soul – I know now it was time for him to go home, that he had taught me all he could, but like my dad and brother, his passing was his greatest lesson for me. Believe me when I say – being ripped open is the greatest opportunity to release all the pain stored inside. Now I know that no life ever ends, even before I started working professionally with Spiritual Beings, I knew that deep inside. Love never ends. All of the top three males in my life are in spirit and they communicate regularly – actually more than they did when they were in the physical.
And now I stand at the beginning of the path leading to restoration of my true abundance. I have been blessed with many examples of kindness and generosity from friends who have fed me, allowed me to sleep on their couch, and supplied me with cash to meet financial obligations when I had no income.
Things are looking up. I have to go to New Mexico some time in the next 2 weeks to get my business clothes and other stuff out of storage. I am so glad to finally have a home again, I admit that I really got stressed out about being a gypsy.....it might have been easier without my dog, Wickid...but I doubt I would have survived without Wickid....nothing like Catch 22 - life is such an adventure.
Contrary to the current sales volume on my websites both personal and the ones on Keen.com, I am open and available for readings. I am also open to further assistance in manifesting the funds required to speed me on my way to the third part of my journey. There are always unforeseen, unplanned expenses along the way. I would greatly appreciate any assistance you may be able to render this month, be it - posting or sharing my emails about my website specials for intuitive readings, to keeping us in your prayers or even the monetary support (provided by calling one of my listings on Keen) to meet the expense of obtaining a license so I can do my readings in public here ($300 - $1200 depending on the shop - and I thought Keen's advertising fees were high!), and the pet deposit so I can keep Wickid and just simple basic needs like food.
I am so over being in financial stress and not asking for help. This past year has taught me how to ask for assistance, and to be open in allowing how my needs are met. I understand the parable about the sparrows better now than I ever did in vacation bible school. I not only know that our every need is provided for by God but also that He uses each of us as His tools in making sure that we are all taken care of, as He cares for the sparrows. I might be tired of macaroni and cheese, but it is still food and it’s not worms.
My bank balance may be non-existent but my level of Faith is immeasurable. I have endured some interesting tests in the last year, and I am sure that there will be a few more before it’s all done, But, I can honestly say that I am well prepared to help others face the fire and survive it now.
I have several classes on my website that are geared to assisting others understand all the recent life changes and how to manifest and use the tools to have a better life in the new energies of this period on Earth.
I offer 3 free minutes for every call over 10 minutes on all of my listings on Keen.
I practiced the old adage of “it’s better to give than receive” before my higher education began. I lived it for a long time before I was introduced to the joys of being open to receiving. It feels good to be able to give, to share but it feels better to receive knowing that you are fulfilling your position as an equal in the universal balance. Without receivers, there is no need for givers.
I am open to all the ways God and the Universe supply my needs (rent), my wants (ice cream) and my desires (to be of service to others).
Allow, Accept, and Act in Gratitude.
Blessings,
Diana
God’s Tool Box
Being psychic is much more than superficial information. It is the ability to tap into all of the resources within the Universe and understand the communication sent as divine guidance that we each have within. Sometimes the best observations come from the ones furthest from the fire. Consider that when you are standing in the middle of Hell, all that you can see are walls of fire surrounding you. While the person who can step back from the emotions of the situation, can see the path out of the flames.
Be still, and know that I AM God. These words were directions meant to return us to our true state of trust and allowing God to do his part. We were never meant to do it all. Life is a partnership between us and God. We live and experience life events which are teleported back to God every second. I can understand – just from some of my own tense moments why God issued that command.
Don Miguel Ruiz says to not take anything personally, to do your best and to let the rest be. Since we are all agents of God, here to experience life at a human level so that we can report back to our Father these experiences, one would think that we are an important intricate part in this process. No wonder God has encoded us with ways to remember who we really are, and what our purpose is here. We are provided for – if we believe and trust in the process. Otherwise, we can suffer as long as we choose to doubt instead of trust.
We are supplied with an unending source of abundance as long as we remember the location of God’s bank. Hint: it is not operated by the Federal Reserve or FDIC. Ask and ye shall receive, famous words by one sent to remind us of our true purpose. As a student, I quickly learned that the words highlighted in the book were the most important ones come test time. So the words in red in the great book are truly the ones we can use to have happier lives while on assignment here.
Trust in the process. Allow room for God to work the miracles of life. The more that we believe we are precious, highly regarded agents working with God to achieve his goals, the less pressure we encounter when we try to carry the weight of the world on our shoulders. Remember that is not your purpose. Atlas has it handled.
We come with all the virtues and vices packaged neatly within our small bodies. They are the tools we will use to experience life. As we grow and incorporate our daily experiences, some of our tools are forgotten from lack of use. But they are still there. And there will come a time when we will reach for them. Otherwise, God would not have packed them so carefully within our Souls.
Yes, we can choose one over another. We can panic instead of trusting, we can have courage instead of fleeing into depression. We choose - just like everything else we do in life….we choose. Some say that how you respond under crisis is the measure of your character. I believe that it is a sign of which tool you are using.
In the financial craziness that has invaded our world, can we all reach for the tools of Faith and Courage and be still and know that I AM God? For some, it will require becoming reacquainted with some forgotten tools, and for others, we will grip the well worn metal of a familiar instrument. We are all tools of God’s will. We are all important to the plan. Trust in the process, do what you are call upon to do, and be still when it’s God’s turn.
I am honored to offer assistance along the way, I was granted the ability to help empower others and it is my greatest joy to see others remember their greatness.
We are running a special on readings this month through July where you get 3 free minutes for any call over 10 minutes.
In all things, remember that you are a blessed part of a much bigger picture. And while your tools may have gathered dust – I can help you restore them to their original bright and shiny condition.

Things that I learned along the way -
We all go through stuff that will make us better
Don't judge stuff, other people or yourself, if you do it stays around longer
The time to walk through the door of Opportunity is NOW
We really do create our realities - I asked for Enough to survive and was given actually that – so now I am asking for what I truly desire!
I have seen too many examples of things that I have created by asking to NOT believe I can do it.
And if I can YOU can
We really are being given opportunities to step up to the next level, appreciate the lessons and the teachers, for they are only God's Tools.....and move forward.
I have come to realize that EVERYONE who stands before us has volunteered to help us grow - if we can help them great - but their primary purpose is to assist us in seeing, feeling, and knowing what we need to know about US so that we can evolve into our highest good.
Not all lessons are pleasant; some hurt and rip at our self-images. They usually are the ones that help us grow the most.
The longer we hold on to the past, the more we suffer.
The old adage “If you love something, let it go. If it comes back it belongs with you….if not; move on.” is true.
We can’t make anyone do anything….even ourselves.
If we allow everyone even ourselves to be who/what they are, we will all be happier.
Love requires acceptance, not control.
It is possible to love people without having to live with them, or compromising your own soul.
We all evolve at our own rate, those not on your level are not dumber or smarter.
Labels are the silliest forms of misapplied judgments.
Be responsible for your actions as best as you can but accept assistance when offered – it helps others grow too.
and best of all ------None of us are in this alone.
Hi,
Last week I was having some minor pains in my chest...just a little sense of discomfort (upper heart chakra was opening wider to let in more Love)...last night, I had two angelic visitors...beyond the normal crew who hang out with me all the time. I feel so very blessed these days and I wanted to share the wonder with those I enjoy being friends with even if it is via the email we send one another.
I am happily homeless (staying with a friend) and jobless (taxes are done and my online stuff is extremely slow right now). But I have never been this peaceful or for that matter, happy. I highly recommend losing all of your material hooks to the illusionary world.
I had a vision recently wherein I was reminded of Job, and I could see the accuracy of the comparison. I am fully open to receive the true valuables of Life now. I like me a lot more now than I have in a very long time. I am amazed at the wonderful sense of empowerment and freedom that lives within me now - the song Gypsy Woman keeps playing in my head - of all the things I lost - home, furniture, businesses, money and even my beloved dog Bandit - I still have my sense of humor. Laughter is the best medicine? I believe that is true for all of us.

Spreading Love Effortlessly
Kindness
In the quest to create a gentler, more loving world, kindness is the easiest tool we can use. Though it is easy to overlook opportunities to be kind, our lives are replete with situations in which we can be helpful, considerate, thoughtful, and friendly to loved ones and associates, as well as strangers. The touching, selfless acts of kindness that have the most profoundly uplifting effects are often the simplest: a word of praise, a gentle touch, a helping hand, a gesture of courtesy, or a smile. Such small kindnesses represent an unconditional, unrestricted form of love that we are free to give or withhold at will. When you give the gift of kindness, whether in the form of assistance, concern, or friendliness, your actions create a beacon of happiness and hope that warms people’s hearts.
The components of kindness are compassion, respect, and generosity. Put simply, kindness is the conscious act of engaging others in a positive way without asking whether those individuals deserve to be treated kindly. All living beings thrive on kindness. A single, sincere compliment can turn a person’s entire world around. Holding a door or thanking someone who has held a door for you can inspire others to practice politeness and make already kind individuals feel good about their efforts. Smiling at people you meet—even those who make you feel like frowning—can turn a dreary encounter into a delightful one, for both of you. Every kind act has a positive influence on the individual who has performed said act as well as on the recipient, regardless of whether the act is acknowledged. Kindness brings about more kindness and slowly but surely takes a positive toll on humanity.
Weaving the thread of kindness into your everyday life can be as easy as choosing to offer a hearty “Good morning” and “Good night” to your coworkers or neighbors, a stranger on the street, or the grocery store clerk. When you commit a kind act, you are momentarily disconnected from your ego and bonded with the individual who has benefited from your kindness. Being fully present in each moment of your life facilitates kindness as it increases your awareness of the people around you. You’ll discover that each act of kindness you engage in makes the world, in some small way, a better place.
Happy St. Patrick's Day....
Have you ever purchased a Lottery ticket? Gave the cashier a $1 or more and walked away with the “lucky ticket”?
Did you win?
Did you support the idea that you had already won before you handed over your contribution to the general funding of the winning pot?
We can throw money – our current measure of worth and energy – at chances to win all day long, but without the knowing within that we have already won, we are wasting our time and energy.
I saw a news story yesterday of a woman who hit the jackpot 3 days in a row. Was she just lucky? Does lightening strike in the same place more than once?
What was her secret to being so “lucky”? Simple, she held the faith of a winner.
Her faith was stronger than the question of her worth of being a winner. How many times have we tried to do something important and failed for lack of faith? How many of us truly believe that we hold the creative powers of the Universe, of God within our souls? We do, but sadly some of us refuse to believe in our own creative power due to indoctrination from our society about our worth.
Have you noticed that time is moving faster? Some say that we are headed for the time of instantaneous creation of our thoughts. The time is now. We “wish” for something, we speak it, and then we allow doubt to ride it down and kill it before it even has a chance to appear. Or we allow the fear of getting what we ask for to prevent us from having it.
We set up limitations: I can have this…only if it comes in this package. Oh really? I’ll let you in on a secret…..God laughs when confronted with our self-imposed limitations. The silly humans have forgotten their own creative power. So laugh too, and allow your wishes free reign fueled by your belief in God’s smile as you – a child of God – follow in the master Creator’s footsteps.
How many times have you said to your inner self – “I’ll believe it - when I see it”? It is time to adjust your paradigm, after all even the magician needs to have a vision of the rabbit in the hat before he reaches in to retrieve it.
What you believe, you will see. That is the magic of creation. Faith in yourself, and the creative power granted to you by your God parent is all that is needed to exercise your truth.
Others will tell you that we only get what God wants us to have, in God’s time. That only means that God knows our ability to handle certain things. When we are ready, we have all that we wish. Being ready implies that we truly believe that we are worthy of having it, without the miserable presence of doubt twisting our noses and leading us away from our creativity.
There are those who wish to control you, they have flexed their creative muscles in ways to keep others terrified of their own true power in order to reign supreme on this planet. They make convincing arguments that scare others into forgetting their own divine creative abilities. They are amusing in their attempts to frighten us. Laugh at them. You are more powerful than they ever want you to realize.
Recall the instructions of the Christ, “Ask, and it shall be granted”. Hold the faith of a mustard seed and move mountains. Fear is toxic, and leads to doubt. Show the thieves the door and close it behind them. As God said, “Be still and know that I am God” and as such created you in My image so that you could walk this planet and create the wonders of your imagination to be shared with God and others. Be inspired, see the greatness that you hold within and allow it to guide you to even more wondrous places.
Open up your heart today, this “lucky” day of the Irish, and believe that your true wishes are sitting before you, patiently waiting for your arrival. Isn’t it time for you to allow yourself to enjoy them, in the here and now?
