5. Day 26: Marvel, Mystery & Miracle

5. Day 26:  Marvel, Mystery & Miracle

A funny thing happened on the way to extending love to the fear of EVERY DAY…..I have begun to accept the idea of EVERY DAY as just what is.  EVERY DAY is not special, separate, set aside or hallowed apart because it is happening all the time.  I have talked to many people about this every day quality of life that we shy from or are even afraid of. Here are some of the reasons I have noticed we all tend to agree as to why every-day-ness might get to us: 1. boredom 2. tired 3.  too busy 4.  the feeling someone is “making” me...

5. Day 25: Tiredness Is A Tunnel To The Truth

5. Day 25:  Tiredness Is A Tunnel To The Truth

I am continuing my conversation with Holy Spirit about rest and tiredness (an EVERY DAY companion I am beginning to no longer need?)………………….. Me:  How do I keep “going off the rails” so to speak in my awareness and shift to only being aware of tiredness, or pain or doubt? HS:    Sweet Angel,  this is simply your way of deepening your awareness and appreciation for your awareness of your heart’s truth.  You need not chastise yourself for being tired, tiredness is designed to remind...

5. Day 24: Permission To Rest

5. Day 24:  Permission To Rest

This morning I asked Holy Spirit what I needed right now.  I surprised myself with needing *permission* to rest! HS:  Dearest One, Resting is simply a way of living; not a place or space of doing nothing.  It can be doing nothing but resting is an active form of ongoing trust. Rest is a resting-in-the-wholeness-of-your-being. Fear not your view of rest as something beyond or outside or after doing.   Rest is peace.   Rest is residing and abiding in peace.   Rest is taking notice of this natural abiding.   Rest is letting go of all you think...

5.  Day 23:  Love Is God DNA

Today I want to pause and remember why I started this blog and project of extending love to my epic fears.  I had come to the end of a phase of spiritual study and teaching with some dearly beloved friends and was honestly worried I would *lose* my awareness and trust and USE of this powerful Voice of Love that flows through me (that flows through all of us).  I had established a strong and deep practice of daily meditation and writing and a seemingly constant practice of extending love to my thoughts.  But now I was going to do this *alone*....

5. Day 22:  EVERY DAY Is An Attitude

Here are a few things I am noticing as I continue to walk EVERY DAY: 1)  I am still doing it 2)  I actually enjoy it 3)  It is always hardest to get to the end of my street 4)  It gets easier at about the two mile mark 5)  It was worth going slow and short distances in the beginning 6)  I can walk in any mood (happy, sad, cross, tired) 7)  I can walk alone or with someone (I like both) 8)  My name remains the same no matter how or if I walk 9)  When I pass my original distance of the first days I know I would feel cheated now if I turned home...

5. Day 21: Split Ends Leads To Frizzy Thinking

5. Day 21:  Split Ends Leads To Frizzy Thinking

I am determined to be with the pain of a conflict I experienced recently  (rather than stuff it down or ignore it) because of my split thinking and I continue the conversation from yesterday with Holy Spirit about my thinking below. HS:  Awareness releases you into this larger BEING which allows expansion and extending, the truth of who, where and what you are, therefore, releasing tension.  This is a purposeful process. If you want to feel more peace during all experiencing, then allow yourself to truly notice all that you are...

5. Day 20: Honesty Is The Hot Seat

5. Day 20:  Honesty Is The Hot Seat

I have a bone to pick with honesty.  Though it is lauded as a very helpful quality it completely alludes me as an avenue of peace.  At least in the short term.  I had an incident happen recently where I was asked a very simple question which immediately split me into two thoughts:  1)  what I want to do & 2)  what I think I should do.  My dishonest answer was inevitable because I was seeing with double vision, which is worse than total blindness, as with double vision you actually think you can see twice as good.  This ended with hurting...

5. Day 19:  Holy Spirit Is My [Thought] Shepard

This day I have woken with unbearable, tear crowded exhaustion.  I still walked ( plodded actually) but only (!) because of my commitment to EVERY DAY.  It felt good to walk but the heavy weariness remains.  After protein drink, meditation and tea on the porch, a whole cluster of wild thoughts duked it out while I was in the bath.  I managed to capture them on my phone.  I will share them here, not to exhaust you but for us to see how even when stuck in the middle of a wild herd of thoughts Holy Spirit can make itself heard if we but ASK (and...

5. Day 18:  Holy-Spirit-To-Go

A comment a dear friend made to me recently opened my eyes wide in a new realization.  The comment was to the effect that my life is always go, go, go, and go.  This is of course true but the huge AHA was this:  I was able to see the “go, go, go and go” as IN me rather than something happening TO me.  This is a seemingly small shift but with epic reverberations.  I feel a piece/peace falling into place and the acceptance of this part of me that wasn’t there before.  I am so very grateful for this REAL-ization (and for my...

5. Day 17:  EVERY DAY & The Rapture

I am waking up to realize walking EVERY DAY is blossoming joy and willingness to include my sweetheart’s GodSelf in my Holy Spirit walk and awareness.  I am loving our daily walks together.  Thank you for this surprise bonus of EVERY DAY to get to spend uninterrupted time with my beloved husband side by side, walking in the same direction at the same time.  I didn’t see that I have somewhat tried to keep my holy self sequestered from others as I have strengthened my awareness of this tender and powerful relationship I can have...
