God loves you.... pass it on. Not just in words, but in thoughtfulness, kindness, and in daily living. Be an example of His love to others. Don't be afraid to speak to a stranger, to smile in passing. Share the abundance that is given to you and share the love.
For love grows the more we give it away. We always have something we can offer others even if it's only time to listen. Do not spend time dwelling on what is wrong in the world, but what is right in your life.
Look for the good in all things that you may be grateful each day for something. When someone leaves your presence tell them to "go with God" that they may always be looked after. Those are the most heartfelt words you can say.
And when you say "peace be with you" mean it! Peace is always possible even in the most trying circumstances for it relies not on the external, but on the internal. It is God's love within. The body may struggle but the spirit is strong. "Let go, let God" is not just a saying, it is Divine wisdom.
For we can do nothing without him. And with Him the smallest things are filled with joy and purpose. Riches do not buy happiness, or health, true friends or eternal love. But the poorest man can have it all with God in his heart and life.
Give back to the universe what you receive in life. Praise God, and pass it on. Remember where your true source lies. Sometimes we have to lose everything to find it. For the greater treasure is not in things but in life itself.
Live it with purpose and good will. Make each day count. Touch someone's life whenever possible. Create opportunities. Begin each day and end each day with God and let Him fill the in-between. Count the blessings and release the sorrows, and always be grateful.

Staying Home
I'm grateful to stay home and enjoy a day of rain, we got lots of it. I went out several times during the storm to enjoy the freshness in the air and marvel at the splendor of God's creation.

The whole experience
I feel like I'm learning the ABC's of life all over again. I'm learning a whole new career, beginning with baby steps and like any small child I want to hurry to get the prize that is out of reach but within my vision.
I haven't learned as yet all the steps it will take to get me there so sometimes I stumble and fall and pull myself up. I have to practice and practice to learn a new task so that in time I may reach my goal.
We learn to crawl before we walk and we need training wheels before we learn how to balance ourselves on a bike. And we must do some things repetitively before we do them with confidence.
God created it so, otherwise we all would be born athletic geniuses who didn't need to learn for we would already know. Actually, we know, we have just forgotten and we can't remember where we put our wings.
We have come here to struggle and to know the joys of learning and accomplishment as well as trials and tribulations. It is something we can only experience in our human form. Without our failures we wouldn't recognize success.
Without sorrow who would know what joy is? We need the highs and the lows to greater understand. That is part of our life's journey. And through it, we learn the capacity to love.
To know humility. To know compassion. What we learn we also teach. What tests us also strengthens us. We choose to come to earth to experience all of life that we may attain a greater knowledge of what it means to live.
For we are all a part of all-that-is. Through each of us the greater whole journeys in all directions and a greater awareness becomes possible. Through synchronicity we touch each other's lives.

A new chapter
Today is a day of closure and a new beginning. I am officially retired, although no trumpets went off and it was generally unacknowledged. And I came home with the equipment to begin again on a new path.
The tools are new and I feel as if I'm a toddler again or a youngster starting kindergarten. Tomorrow opens a new chapter in my life. The curtain has closed and a new act is about to begin. I feel excited about the prospects and eager to learn the unknown.
I will be a schoolgirl again. To be instructed in areas that did not exist for us on a personal level when I was in school. The world is now computerized and so too is some aspects of our creativity. It's a new type of exploration for me. And I am so blessed to have the support of friends and family.
To not only gift me with the tools but to share their knowledge and their enthusiasm. And to cheer me on. I believe I can do this and I know it is the right direction by the feeling of peace I receive and all the synchronicity God sends into my life.
The right people at the right time. The sales when I need to purchase a product on limited funds. When I do not know exactly what to look for the right people come along to show me the way.
There are no coincidences, only God's guidance. I feel as if a barrier has been lifted that was preventing me from reaching the other side until all the tabs were paid and as I hadn't the monies I had to earn my passage through hard work.
Most of it interior. All the debris of the past had to be cleared away to make a path to a new life with a bright future awaiting. It hasn't happened overnight and there is still a big hill to climb, but I look forward to it. One step at a time with God's guidance.

We are part of the whole
When we look back at our life we can see each step led up to and helped form the now. Events strengthened us where we needed strength, gives us pauses when we were needed elsewhere, created compassion through our own hardships, and gave us the teachers we needed to grow.
Life doesn't just happen, it develops. It is a right of passage. There are cycles, endings, and new beginnings. Trust that you will be put in the right place for what you need to learn, for future developments.
We learn to recognize synchronicity and fate. To know that life is not a series of random events, but destiny and choice. We come to realize we are not alone but part of all-that-is. As we affect nature, the universe affects us.
To care for our planet, our forests, the waters, the atmosphere is to care for the self. We are all one in existence. We learn to have a greater consciousness. To recognize grace when it arrives. To seek not things but inner peace.
To be a contributor so that the cycle of providing continues. To not deplete but replenish. To give back benefits our own spirit. It fulfills a need within. We much also learn to seek times of stillness and not constant motion only.
For it is in the stillness where we may receive insight we would otherwise overlook in our haste. To be quiet in order to know all things take time to achieve, seek patience. Some things need to simmer slowly and cannot be rushed else they don't reach their full potential.
At times, we may feel adrift in unchartered waters but there is a tide carrying us to a new destination, a new leg of our journey where a whole new chapter of our life starts anew. Be open that you may receive the blessings coming your way. We cannot see what is around the corner but destiny awaits.

The past is tomorrow's key
We look for our roots and we seek our wings. We desire to know the heritage from which we came and to transcend beyond it to achieve our dreams. One grounds us, the other allows us to fly. All that has gone before is a part of us, but does not limit us.
We find synchronicity in patterns, our talents that seemed inherent in those before us as in the now. We learn to understand why we are drawn to the sea, to art, to a love of gardening. It is as if certain attributes are embedded in our genes.
The excitement of exploration takes on life as it relates to our own. We can see the coasts of our ancestors and feel at home. As if we have found a piece of the puzzle we need to fit into place to see the whole picture of who we are.
Some day scientists may find it existing within our DNA, our brain cells, and the blood pulsing throughout us. It both calls us back and sends us forth. Past memories of those who have gone before us may lie withing us.
This is part of the feeling of deja vu, the feeling of knowingness instilled within us. That we have walked this way before when it was not our footsteps, but those that went before us. It is a lighthouse calling us home.
To see all that shapes our potential, our desires, and our talents we must look in the before. We can see footprints of the future embedded in the past. Through synchronicity, all time can exist as one, even the beyond knowing is known somewhere within.
Things are revealed in the right time and right place. I am all that went before me and all things to come. The rings of life are within me, as in the tree. The seeds of the beginning are within the fruit. The more I know, the more I grow. What grounds me also frees me.

You can learn
We must not get discouraged when we plod along instead of advancing at a gallop for each step forward is progress and is at the pace it was meant to be for our own learning.
In youth, it sometimes seems easier, but retention is harder to attain, at times, when we age, but it is not impossible. It is important to keep the mind active and engaged. It is always easier to learn that which we love, but it is necessary to learn the basic tools before we move on.
Embrace them as a means to an end. At times our teachers too may be deficient and leave us to struggle much on our own. Know we can always seek and be granted Divine assistance.
Do not think the Lord does not understand for He is in the spirit of all things in existence. All things, including the human ideas that also create, are gifts from God. Nothing exists without His knowledge.
What we can accomplish is but a speck in the universe compared to Divine creation. Offer up your struggle to His glory and He will help you carry the load.
There is something too to learn in the learning. About ourselves, our dedication, our feeling of accomplishment, as we begin to understand a new thing.
When we can share it with others and also teach, we are giving back that which was given to us. Thus learning is an endless cycle. To have the gift of a new thing to accomplish in our life gives purpose to our days.
If we grasp just one concept we have reason to be grateful for that wee bit of knowledge that we didn't possess before. We have the ability to continue that road each day and to embrace it for expanding our horizons. Believe you can succeed and you will. For what we believe is what we receive.
