The True You

Spring is trying to tip toe in gently.
There have been many unusual weather
patterns lately that have led us to believe that warmer weather was finally
here and then suddenly it would turn cold once
again. I am thankful that
at some of those times, the heavens still allowed the sun to brightly
shine with the gift of hope. The outcome
is that it does not really look like spring
to us in the usual ways. However, when we look closer, we will see that the
flowers and trees have continued to bloom, taking
hold in a very deep solid way.
This
is also happening to us if we have joined the masses for the rebirthing
of mankind. We are using gentle steps to walk into our newer
realities.
These
realities hold a strong, solid vision of who we have been, who we
are and who we are choosing to become. Everything still has
the same structure
of
roots, leaves, flowers, bark, trunks and stems. We seem somewhat
familiar to ourselves, but we also know something is truly different.
What this is all
doing to our active, everyday lives is very interesting as
well. We are the same tree and flower, but we are actually more aware
of our abilities and our color and how we grow.
We are also more
aware
of our environment around us and how everyone else is choosing to grow.
This is the time when quietness and thoughtfulness are allowing more
appreciation of whom we are and the choices we
have made. May
I
suggest that you practice doing this with kindness and gentle
compassion toward yourself and all you have allowed yourself to become.
You have just gone through an amazing awakening
and this is now the
time
to reassess it all without judgment. The time will come for more action,
but now just simply allow your new vision to drink it all in.
Be mindful when all the plans you set in motion suddenly
take their own
direction.
I have begun to laugh while I open my arms up to the heavens,
when the most unexpected things happen. These life occurrences are
nothing like I planned them to be, or nothing
I planned on at all!
How
often have you heard people say the same thing? It seems, that it is
the very best thing that could have happened, better than we could
have ever consciously planned for ourselves.
Everything happens
for
a higher purpose, especially when we are laughing at ourselves
and opening our arms to receive it! What fun it is when you
stop and
you
welcome in the guidance of your higher self.
So when the weather seems to be having trouble deciding what season
it is and how it is suppose to behave, take it
as a gentle reminder
that
we are all doing the same. This is a glorious, beyond glorious,
time to simply watch what is happening to you and around you.
This is the time of pure awareness and sometimes
it is so surprising
that
we need to stop and tip toe through it gently to really become
aware of its full meaning. You may be shown your own truth or
you may be understanding, for the first time,
the
depth
of another person’s truth.
There
is no judgment, there is just awareness. This is a new time,
a new you and a new world. For us to truly discover the meaning
within it all, we need to stop and rest within
it quietly while the
sun
still shines upon us. In the midst of spring’s full energy of
growth, there comes the memory of the stillness of winter. Suddenly,
it is cold and it feels like sleep is once again
upon us. The earth
seems
to stop growing and everything holds a sense of fear of the
unknown. We stop and take notice and worry that it is so
unusual, what does it mean.
That is the gift. We have become aware. We stop and we want to
understand what it means. Just as we are
convincing ourselves
how
different it is, it takes on the familiar air of spring.
Spring was never lost, it remains the same. It just stopped long
enough for us to notice that things are continuing
to change in
nature
and we can adjust ourselves to it with ease. If we choose to do so.
We are the same as well. Our higher self, our soul has always been
the same. The only difference is that we
are choosing to awaken
ourselves
to the full understanding of who we truly are on all levels.
This is a choice of aligning ourselves with our true self, re-aligning
ourselves with our higher self for our highest
purpose. We need
to
do this slowly. We need to do it with loving acceptance. We
need to do it with courage. To accomplish all of this we have
chosen to tip toe into spring and the rebirthing
of our true
identities.
It is not by accident that it is also the time
that Motherhood is celebrated.
Be patient with yourself. Be mindful of what is happening
within
you
and around you. Be compassionate to yourself and others.
Be still and embrace the glory of it all. When you do this,
life
will
be understood more for what it is bringing in, along with its
efforts of aligning you with your highest purpose of being.
I will hold you all in the space of divine love and
joy as I feel you
awaken
to the most amazing time of rebirthing and creation of
life, side by side with the Creator of it all. This a celebration and
I join with you in celebrating the joys of Motherhood
and the
wonders
of the discovery of the child within. As we place our hand
with trusting love into the hand of our Creator, perfection is created!
Many blessings,
love, light and joy,
