Steve Jobs reminds me to "Have the Courage to Follow your Heart & Intuition." -His words.

Oprah says the words that resognates with me most..."Every event in life happens as an opportunity to choose love over fear."

and St. Theresa of Lisieux tells me "You must trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to me."

So many great quotes from great people. 

I remind myself daily that "Loving the moment you are in is the most precious way to experience the present of life."

For we are what we experience. so I shall continue to live life energically as possible..and remember the words of Amy Poehler, comedian & actress; "Great People do things before they are ready. they do things before they know they can do it. Doing what you're afraid of, getting out of your comfort zone, taking risks-that's what life is." :-:)

We must trust.

We must be trustful.

We must have faith.

We must be faith filled.

We must use our abilities to make a difference.

To fill the world with kind words, actions, and gestures.

This will prevail over any anxiety.

Some need rainbows.

Some need the signs.

Many need them to know me.

For I am the darkness that can see through the cloud.

My light shines even on the darkest of days.

In the darkest of nights, I find a way to lighten your heart... so that you may be light.

Do not fear me.

Fear only the fear of knowing life evolves at the right pace.

Peace be with you.

If you have faith to move mountains, you must remember that this is what also removes our fear.

Let no fear hold you back from the truth.

Let no fear stop you from doing what is right.

Let no fear freeze you for your faith is strong.

When you remove the fear then the reality of the truth is all that remains.

The truth is love conquers.

The truth is love brings forth hope, guidance and peace.

The truth is love does not create fear.

Love shines like a flashlight in the dark when we most need light to calm the anxiety of our mind.

Know the light is always there, Breathe in.

Breathe out.

And release all doubt.

Did you know when you die your problems remain.

If you can't find peace on earth, know it is the same in heaven.

The truth is that being on good terms with people allows you the easiest transition to live your life fully in spirit and with spirit.

Yes, in heaven there is peace.

Peace comes as you melt into the oneness of creation.

Yet those that remember you will always remember if you had peace on earth, and peace with them,

Wishing you peace on earth this holiday season and always

. Now for the how: Getting peace on earth begins in your heart.

Accepting yourself, others and the world. And trusting acceptance doesn't always mean believing in certain values.

Acceptance gifts you peace. Peace to know you don't have to be judge, jury, or the change.

Peace allows you to follow your heart.

To know all are created with intention to be exactly who they are.

And that is perfect for them.

Maybe not perfect for you but know the grass is only greener when you care for your world.

Your world is the world.

Make it better by choosing to accept, love and be kind to all.

Lives are lived. Stories told. Events unfold.

People grieve, people give, and friends share news that their life goes on and on.

Mistakes are not intentional.

No one is perfect.

Look in the mirror, and one should fall in love.

Even those that have violated you can love.

But forgiving them can only be done when they know they were wrong.

Hear the apologies from the sky.

The absence has only been to allow you to heal, to accept and to forgive.

People are genuinely good.

Friends only try and do what is right. Try to help.

Sometimes a helping hand goes too far, and sometimes not far enough.

So retracting the hand, there is a silent cry, waiting to know if you are alright.

Yet knowing everything will be right in the end.

Did you know? Once you were just a snowflake.

A sight of wonder falling from the sky.

When you landed your beauty became one with the earth... And now, that snowflake has melted and left me with just a memory of awe.

I don't think about the cold as I stand by the fire.

I can't even feel the cold I close my eyes and feel every detail of you. Knowing that you have become a part of me.

That not only warms my heart but lights my path.

I will prepare.

I will help to heal you for you are in my soul and I cannot have any part of me broken. So I will love you.

I will forgive you.

I will accept we are where we are suppose to be.

I will only question if you know I too was a snowflake.

A Prayer for Peace 

In union with all people with a kind heart.

Pray for peace.

Peace in our homes.

Peace in our hearts.

Peace in our families.

Peace with our friends and our neighbors.

Peace in our communities.

Peace in our country.

Peace in our world.

Unite us all in kindness, compassion, and a commitment to make this world better, without excluding anyone.

May those blinded by this wish, have a change of heart; so they too will see that happiness is love thyself, thy neighbor, and all lives.

For All lives matter.

Dear God, Mother Mary, Holy Spirits and Angels above, we pray for this peace.

We ask for healing compassion, joyful love and universal kindness. Amen.

A twin soul lives above and every memory on earth is carried to the heavens to create balance.

Everything we put our energy into remains on earth radiating our spirit.

On earth, every life we meet has a purpose greater than we will ever know.

Every loving wish comes true in the heavenly places wich our love goes.

Will you lay your head on my shoulder?

Will you let me comfort you with my love?

Do you need a friend to have an ear?

Do you know how much another hand can do?

Things unfold at the right time, and other things reveal in time.

Often words are better left in the silence of the fog.

Yet sharing faith through an action rather than a word can make the world a better place.

Sharing space in the present does bring hope to heal a wound..

Lay your head on my shoulder, and know it's not just you who needed a hand.

Lay your wonder and worry, and doubt, and together we will find a plan.
