Someone is feeling your pain today, your grief and your sorrow and transforming it into joy, serenity and love.

Someone is thinking kindly of you today in the deep recesses of their own heart and the depths of their soul. Find peace in that!

Someone is imagining you today surrounded by angels, spirits, healing energies, celestial beings, starlight and deep magic and wonder. Wrap yourself in all of that.
Someone is understanding today, the depths of what you have been going through, and is embracing you with deep compassion and trusting in your own profound inner knowing to see you through it.

Someone is holding your hand today and letting you know that you are never alone and never have been, even though there have been moments, when you lost your way and felt abandoned and afraid. You never were!

Someone truly knows today perhaps at a level that you do not yet, that all is well somehow, even though it may not appear to be so. And that there is great meaning and purpose in your life, just by the very fact that you are here in all your splendor. Without you here nothing would be the same for any of us. Know that and take strength in it.

Someone is praying for you today and their prayers are being heard and answered.
Someone is whispering gently to your soul today to keep going no matter what, one day at a time, one step at a time, one inch at a time. We are all celebrating that you haven’t given up and you are making such an immense difference for all of us.
Someone is holding you in the light as things in your world seem to be falling apart and putting them back together for you, in new, miraculous and astonishing ways. Trust and believe in that!

Someone is remembering today, who you really are, and why you came here and reminding you when you begin to close your eyes and surrender, just for a moment, to the truth, to what is right NOW, in this moment, and what can be. Ask for that!
Feel the love, cherish the knowing, drink in the joy, and take comfort and strength in all of it. It is all here for you. Reach for it! Embrace it! It is Divinely Yours!

I heard this song on the radio today and it got me thinking about how much we live life by sitting on the sidelines instead of dancing. We are afraid of so many things that we don’t acknowledge, because we are afraid of making them real. Once we admit to something, this we have to either do something about it or admit that we are cowards and afraid of making the needed changes.

It starts with something that is really small, that in our minds we have made large – like standing around at the Jr High School dance because we are afraid that the person we want to dance with will say no; or if we get asked we are afraid that we don’t know how to dance well enough and someone will make fun of us and life as we know it will be over.

As we get older more things get added to the list and pretty soon we have settled for the path of least resistance, because we just know that bad things will happen if step outside of the lines of the box that we created.

Take some little chances – I had never dyed my hair because I was afraid it might not turn out; I had never trusted a hair stylist to cut my hair and style it because what if I didn’t like it or my husband hated it; such little things to be afraid of that it is both sad and funny how we convince ourselves of things that really won’t be world ending. Most of what we are afraid of is totally out of proportion to what it really is.

The chances are worth taking! You grow and expand both inside and out. You can then laugh at yourself for being so afraid. You are then ready for the bigger chances that once you take them on, will have you dancing across the stage like your Ginger Rogers, showing Fred Astaire just how it is done!
