April 2009
Life has a way of changing in an instant. In one moment ~ what you thought you knew may no longer be so...who you thought you knew may no longer be who you thought them to be…who you thought you were may no longer be who you are in this moment.
My most recent moment of change, though I have had several in my lifetime, was due to slipping on a grassy bank on a beautiful February morning leaving me with a broken right leg. For me, this was to be the beginning of a new experience as I had never broken a bone in my life though I had previously incurred a few health challenges along the way. At this point, I want to share with you what I have learned, aside from experiencing pain and the paranoia of pain killers and save you from the technical jargon and the complications of surgery. Just a commentary of what this soul has learned, so far, from this singular moment of change, a moment in time, one that has given me an opportunity to exercise my intention to connect with some others and myself as well as a higher being ~ God, in my case.
Now I realize there are some readers out there who may question, “Well, if she is a “psychic” then didn’t she know this was going to happen?” My answer to that query is, yes, I did. It’s pretty simple to say, or write, in this case all the preludes to the “accident” as to what messages did I receive, how did I respond, and what choices did I make in order to prepare for this event. What I find important isn’t necessarily the hints that were given to me but the directions I chose to follow and learn from (and continue to learn from) this experience. We all read the same books, chapter by chapter, verse by verse, line by line, but what I have found to be the challenging for most people is how to apply the knowledge that they derive from the books they read and incorporate it into their daily lives. This is where knowledge becomes true wisdom.
And so, my book is no longer filled with the simple common threads of endless chapters as my life has become enhanced again with lessons delivered by messengers of inspiration and guidance that I hope to continue to learn from, to share, to live, and to cherish.
One by one.
I consider them to be blessings…
What I have learned so far from this moment…
• The power of the spoken word is your truth, it is your promise, it is your breath of life, and it represents your dignity. Take heed what you say because you are promising what you will do. If you do not do what you say then what have you become? Choose your words carefully, because they are your contracts with others as well as to yourself. You are accountable for your words however carelessly tossed about delivered without consideration for another or for what intention they were served ~ you are responsible.
• The less a person is in control of their surroundings there is a reason why a person asks for what they ask for ~ though you may not ever know why or what their reason is for asking. Humble yourself to realize that you may not ever know exactly why or who or when or what or where. If at all possible, give them what they ask for ~ most likely it will not be of significance to you but it may be of value to them.
• A person does not need to be humbled by you or your words.
Let God make those decisions alone.
• The true intention reveals itself in the action(s) & word(s)
of the thoughtful or thoughtless soul.
• “Neither a borrower nor a lender be” was once written by
Shakespeare however, how can I interpret this “knowledge”
into my life?
Give from my heart, be genuine, sincere, be true to myself
and there will be no need to be repaid for what I have given
to you. Give freely without the expectation that it will
never be returned to you.
Perhaps the guidance from the Bible (Luke 6: 34) deserves
notice
“If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what
credit is that to you?”
• The healing touch of a gentle tickle on the toes of a broken
leg can surprisingly bring a smile to a soul and begin to
mend more than what was visibly broken.
• The unexpected connection between a healer and the healing
~when only a feint prayer was sent & noticeably heard when
I witnessed a simple yet memorable sign of compassion.
• Take the time to connect with respectful people when they
reach out to me. May I not be so busy, or preoccupied with my
life and my bills, or be preempted by my judgments or exude
indifference and resist to connect with them. May I reach
towards them and ask them for what they need and not what I
think they should need or want from me. Sometimes just to ask
that person what they need may show them that you care enough
to listen.
• May I remember what it is like to be asked questions during
times of another person’s crisis. They may already be
overwhelmed as they may be dealing with their own questions,
fears, and insecurities let alone deal with mine, as well.
May I know to ask not out of my need to control or to have
the right to judge them but to be available to them, if they
so need me to assist them during this time of healing &
personal revelations.
• Understand the need to maintain respect for someone when that
person may not make the same decisions I would make for them.
Encourage them to make the best decisions they can make at
that time and go from there. Ask them if they would like my
opinion instead of assuming that they will or do.
• Whether a person has cancer, is facing towards death,
grieving a lost child, or nursing a wound may I remember to
listen to them as a person and help them maintain their sense
of dignity and freewill to choose in their life as they make
their transitions in this lifetime.
• When I trust myself completely ~ tried & true ~ I trust in
God. There is no need for separation.
• I have a choice as to whether I listen, whether I choose to
act, whether I choose to move forward, whether I choose to
live, or whether I choose to serve. Everyday, every step,
every breath, every thought is a choice that I make, whether
consciously or unconsciously.
So what lessons have you learned so far? What lessons are you willing to share with others freely and without judgment, shame or blame?
We all experience some type of pain in our lives whether it is from grief, shame, guilt, regret, denial, anger, pride, and many other forms of fear. And what is the outcome to your blessings ~ what are you willing to resolve, release, move on and let live. As I have shared with many people over the years that my understanding of the purpose to forgive is “for the sake of giving ~ I forgive.” For me, when I interpret the word “forgive” with this meaning it makes it so much easier to just do it and live and then be.
And yet, it is another perspective in life. One moment that can change a purpose, a meaning, a direction, a lifetime. I believe we will all arrive at that moment when we affirm or reaffirm our purpose and we deliver.
And at some point, we are delivered.
Enjoy your sacred journey!
