Breaking Free

My Friday quote comes from Eckhart Tolle’s A New Earth, pg 161.

The beginning of freedom from the pain-body lies first of all in the realization that you have a pain body. Then, more important, in your ability to stay present enough, alert enough, to notice the pain-body in yourself as a heavy influx of negative emotion when it becomes active.

The Realization of My Life’s Work

0821091210

Today held an epifany moment for me. As I walked through my kitchen, sorting bills and preparing to pay them I paused by the refrigerator, covered in photos. My eye caught the magazine picture I had placed there long ago when I moved in. I’ve been in possesion of the magazine picture for approximately eight years or more. The picture is the scene of a woman writing on a computer on her deck, overlooking the water, a dog close by her side. When I cut that magazine picture out it was with the intention of “creating this life environment for myself”, working at home as a writer with a water view and a dog I loved. As my eye caught that magazine picture this morning, something within me shifted. It was an Ah ha moment.

Healing Will Come

We all have moments, weeks and years in our lives when pain, grief and loss overcome us. We move through our losses at the pace our hearts allow. For some healing comes more quickly than for others, there is no right or wrong when a heart is healing. The statement “Time Heals” was on my mom’s nurse tee shirt and I have found that to be true in my own life, with my own losses.

Home With God

Recently I was reading a passage from Neale Donald Walsch’s book, “Home With God” and I was struck by the words. His books are all messages from God/Spirit, if you have read any of his many books you are aware of this. The passage that grabbed me follows. It leaves much to think about as we go through our day and life.

Walk The Walk

Life is joy, love, challenge, choices and change. We all want to feel loved, cherished and desired. It’s part of the nature of our soul to need love. We want to feel the warmth, closeness and the delight of loving and being loved. Relationships are a gift and a challenge to walk each day. No matter what relationship you choose you will find moments that transform you with the depth of their love, the fear, the frustration and the sheer joy and commitment of loving another soul. This is no easy walk, it’s a baptism of fire. No matter who we are, who we love, who we feel drawn to in our life the fact remains we are changed and challenged by commitment in the best and worst ways. For certain life will become about WE rather than me. It will feel at times like a series of compromises, which challenge your very being. We all think we are flexible until we’re faced with the needs and desires of another soul. Then we come to realize maybe we aren’t as easy and flexible as we imagined.
