Less Drama

So here it is a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Connecticut, by far the best day of the weekend, but to me the best in a week. I can’t believe it! I sit here in the house writing this to you all instead of enjoying the beauty of the day. I wish I could say as I sit here I am doing this because I chose to sit in all day to write, but I didn’t. In fact, there has been no choice to stay home today. Instead, my car broke down keeping me home today. Literally–broke down—yes a 2007 Honda Civic went kaput. How is that possible you ask? I asked the exact same question. And I noticed my reaction is one of humor I laugh because what are the chances, I mean seriously, what are the chances of a Honda not working? I mean I chose this car simply due to the fact that it doesn’t do that—well that is what everyone told me and still tells me even today when so clearly, my car did break down! Oh well, I changed my plans and I am sitting here writing a note.

The other day I came across the following quote by Myrlie Evers , “I have reached a point in my life where I understand the pain and the challenges; and my attitude is one of standing up with open arms to meet them all!”

Isn’t that an amazing attitude to have? What a beautiful life it would be if we all could do that. I have to honestly say that I discovered that I there is much truth and peace in that statement. A few years ago, I easily found that choosing to live life that way made me more present in my day and life was a lot less complicated. It was absolutely incredible.

However, what I found was that some things happened in my life that caused me to become out of balance in my life and my energy. Being human and having so many human experiences happen all at once, it made me overwhelmed which in essence made me want to deal with life’s challenges less and less. As a result, I lost my way a little bit and was reminded to put me first. So often, I forget and jump off the path of healing and so often I am blessed to have my angels, my guides and my life experiences remind me. And, if I am paying enough attention to them I will quickly get back together and if I am not it may take a little longer.

The quote above reminded me to look at my life again. A few things came to my attention this past week ending with the car stuff. I choose to greet the challenges as they come rather than running to avoid them. What I notice though is that I meet a lot of people who choose to run from life and life’s challenges by way of distractions or literally, by way of creating more drama in their life to distract people from what the original situation is. I choose to be happy in this moment by embracing life’s challenges and pain. I choose to take things one day at a time rather than jumping forward or getting angry from the get go. View the world differently and make less drama in my life. What about you?

Simple Sources of Love

I have been spending the last couple of days looking for examples of love. I have been seeing it everywhere I go. Here are just a few examples of what I noted:

I saw it when I went to visit my family. My father and I were talking and he has been making copies of my vhs videos (yes I still have those) and converting them onto DVD's. It is his way of showing me love. I am so grateful. He takes so much care and effort to make them perfect. It is so loving and warm. Or when my mom buys me a blouse (ok so it is not the color I would ever pick out, but it always turns out looking good). I am so grateful for those little signs of love.


I saw it yesterday when I was taking a drive to my Chiropractor's office. I driving down a beautiful back road to get there. You know with the fall colors you would think that would be enough for me to say ahhh how beautiful. Well, I was thinking of my twin flame (that is for another entry at another point on my journey, but I did spit the word out so you all now know I have one), and as I thought of my twin I looked up and on this beautiful tree lined street I saw to trees across from one another reaching over the street to connect. It was like I saw love reaching out and grabbing ahold of more love...it created this incredible arch over the road....ahhh the beauty of love in nature I thought.

Then last evening I experienced love with family and friends. I was a hospital for a friend who has a friend that is going through some medical stuff and the support was beautiful. Even when we may not be able to communicate with words in love, it is evidenced in how we treat one another or how we interact. It was really beautiful---it helped me sleep soundly once again and wake up in a glory filled mood.

Find your sources of love...look around I have a sneaking suspicion you will find some too...

All You Need is Love

Does anyone remember that song? The Beatles sang it and the lyrics are:

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.
It's easy.

Nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time.
It's easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.

Those words just so make me feel good. It reminds me loud and clear that everything and anything is possible. The chant I seem to say and shout out to the world everyday. The Beatles really rock my soul in a way I have never known until the last few years.

Then I got this beautiful quote in my inbox from Esther & Jerry Hicks and Abraham:

Being in love is so good for you. Often when people are newly in love, things that have been bothering them for a long time get better. Something wonderful is calling the majority of their attention, so they're holding themselves in a better vibrational place, so the stuff they've been wanting all along can now zoom in.

I take all these little messages as signs for me to fall in love with love. Not just with someone in the romantic way, but in every way that love can be expressed or received. This may perhaps be one way we learn to open to receive love in our lives.

Last night I was heading out to meet up with girlfriends, but stopped at a store first. On my way from the store to the car, I saw a couple in the parking lot. The girlfriend ran to the boyfriend (assuming bf/gf could be husband/wife, but it doesn't really matter). It was a wonderful sight for me! It was like they hadn't seen each other in months, when it was probably a much shorter length of time. She jumped in his arms and he lifted her up and kissed her. How loving and welcoming! In the past, my first impression would have been a bit cynical; thinking about how I long for that and if I can't have it why should anyone have it or even worse I often ignored the sight of someone else being in love because it was too painful to see someone happy when I wasn't....but last night instead of wishing that were me...I looked at them thinking--look how the love they are sharing, that is what I want and that is what I will have.

How cool that my perception has changed to that! So I guess now I am thinking how can I feel more of that?? I felt love and it wasn't something I had to do...just something I got to feel. That will be my quest for next week to see love when it is there and to experience what it feels like over and over again.

...the essence of your very soul is LOVE...

Last week I had a terrible headcold and I didn't sleep for two nights in a row. The second night, I lay there thinking what the heck is wrong when you are sick you need to sleep. Instead of honoring what my spirit knows to do, I fought it the first night and tried to make me sleep with no success I must say. Even into the next day I found myself squandering my time and languishing in feeling icky rather than do what I know to do. So the second night, I found I went to bed and slept an hour and woke up; this pattern kept happening until finally at 3:30 in the morning on October 1, I decided to get the voices out of my head and sit at my laptop and channel for a period of time and then I was able to go to sleep. Imagine that? It really was that simple, stop resisting and do. So I went to sleep the rest of the morning and never read the channel until two days later.

Now many of you have read my channels--they are always beautiful and loving and signed love your angels or love a specific angel. Well, this channel is a little bit different. It was a little more harsh, to the point and signed by "The Lords of Light"; nonetheless, beautiful. You will see as I am pasted it below for your eyes to read:

Dear Children,

We love you and are here for you. Now is the time to stop sitting on the fence. So many doors are now opened. It is a new day in this place you called earth. Do you not hear our voices calling for you to see clearly? Live healthier. Make choices that are new for you. Choose differently than you once had. It is about the beauty of what is here on earth. We are the ones who are to show you the way. Listen closely as we impart the wisdom of the ages. We laugh when you think of earth as being so young when the very existence of your souls are much older. It is with light that we shine upon you a new message of hope and love and understanding. Your children are different. You question if your child is different. Yes your children are here to usher in a new age. An age where freedom of choice is just that. There are no longer the chains of the past; these children are able to see beyond the veil you humans have created over the lifetimes that you have lived and walked on this planet. For these children are what you have been waiting for. You have asked for peace on earth and you shall have it if you wish? What do you really want? Do you really want the change as you so helplessly call for? Or are you really looking for us to show you more of the same old way in a new way? Do you prefer not to make the decisions that were once a blessing and allow others of the old energy to channel for you what path you must take next? What is it that you want? Is it not clear? Have you bombarded your mind by what you see or are experiencing? Have you found a way to quiet your mind in this time and in this space? IT is about love. It is always about love and we have tried to show you a new way to love which is in fact the old way to love. That is without reason to love simply because you are love. We have brought forward the children of light to you to show you what you have done is not working. Don’t they just get in the way of what you have planned? Don’t they just stop you right in your tracks? IT isn’t to make your life difficult dear ones it is to make your life more beautiful than you have ever imagined. It is about showing you what you have dreamt of …PEACE. These children are here for you. They are going to show you that they will not take what you have planned out for human kind instead they are going to pave a new way. A way that allows each individual to be who they are. YOU HAVE BEEN ACCUSTOMED TO THE LIFE YOU HAVE BEEN LIVING, BUT IT IS NO LONGER WORKING IS IT? We have been here to teach you for many generations; some of you have heard and listened; some of you have not. The skies will show you what is next. Look up for in a blink of an eye you will see. It is time don’t you think to know that help is here with you? For now you shall find the peace you have been looking for. Just step inside yourself and see what we see when we look at you…the essence of your very soul…LOVE. You must take that step; for without it you will stay in the confusion, the fear, the pain and the frustration. The veil is being lifted we are showing you tools to navigate this new energy. You once thought sleep was for the dark nights maybe sleep is where we work and day light is when we enjoy the beauty of living. Look carefully at your choices and choose what must be; for you will know based on how you feel.

The time has come for you to be one with your spirit. Look within and you shall find all you have looked for.

Love the Lords of Light.
