A few words…Life and Surprises
Life is indeed full of surprises. We never know what is coming next. We have curve balls when we least expect them. Each and every one of us has challenges to overcome and it is our responses to the challenges that make us unique. Some people will sit back and simply accept all that comes their way and think of it as being their lot but other people with more drive and determination will try and steer the way. Some people seem to fly through life effortlessly and easily whilst others have an uphill struggle and it is very difficult to comprehend why this is so. But the answer lies within. The answer is within each and every one of us but we need to look deep inside to find the answers. When we are not learning our lessons further issues/obstacles/hurdles are placed in our way. … [Read more...]
A few words…Drums
Drums are a sign for a celebration but can also be a warning too. When the drums beat, just like our heart beats, we feel the adrenaline, we feel the passion, we feel the fear and we feel the excitement. Each and every beat of the drum penetrates our soul and it is this with penetration of the soul that we are able to feel our body and our connection with the Earth plane. It is so important for us to feel connected with the Earth plane each and every day. We are all on a different journey. However, the path is very similar, we all have things that we need to learn along the way whether that be patience, endurance, resilience, calmness or respect. Each and every one of us has to find answers and those answers come from within. We need to search within us to find the answers. The … [Read more...]
Goodbye is indeed new beginnings
As things come to a close, new opportunities soon arise. Sometimes we need to close the door on something in order that new opportunities can become available. Very often we try to do too much in our life and this then spills out in various ways. We can feel unbalanced, anxious, unfulfilled, that we are not achieving etc.. But this isn’t necessarily the case. Change can be difficult. Change can bring forth issues from the past. Change can enable old buried feelings to come to the surface making us feel vulnerable and nobody likes to feel vulnerable. So whatever it is that is holding you back ask yourself why it is holding you back. What feelings are coming to the surface? What do you need to deal with before you can move forward with confidence and with clarity? Only you know … [Read more...]
A few words…Time to say goodbye?
All good things indeed come to an end - some much sooner than others. There is always a reason for this although we do not appreciate it at the time. Many hardships result in new things blossoming whether that is grief or loss of any other kind. So what is it in your life that you are going to lose in your life you may ask? And the answer will be presented to you at the right time for you. There is no point worrying about it. There is no point fretting over things that might not happen – just like a cat with spilt milk. Why worry yourself when it might never happen? But when it does happen just accept and allow those feelings to come to the surface and deal with each one as they do so in the best and most fitting way for you. There is no right way to grieve whether that is … [Read more...]
A few words…Love
Love is all around us if we choose to look for it. Every day we have the option to notice the love that is all around us. But sometimes it is easier to dwell on everything else that drags us down on life. We have the option when we wake up in the morning to open our eyes and see things for what they really are. As we pay attention to the weather, whether sunshine or rain, as we listen to the birdsong, as we pay attention to our nearest and dearest. If we immerse ourselves in what we are doing we find love, pleasure and satisfaction. But it is only our choice and it is a choice that each and every one of us has to make. We can fill our lives with positivity and with love or we can fill it with envy and hatred. The choice is down to us. Our world could be so much better if it was … [Read more...]
Easter Sunday…A time for reflection and rebirth?
Love is all around us if we look. Love can be found in everything that is around us. As you look up to the sky, as you look at the beauty around you, as you listen to the birds, as you smell and admire the flowers. Everything is made with love. Everything is made for a reason. You have a choice. You can choose to look around, to admire, to appreciate and be part of this love or you can choose to ignore it, to close down your world and see only the negative things. That is your choice. So what is your choice? Only you can make your choice. Only you can make the decision to see this world in a positive manner or a negative manner. Only you can choose your behaviour so that it is negative or positive. So as you look around you consciously take notice of everything that there is … [Read more...]
Good Friday…A time for reflection?
What is good about Good Friday many may say. But Good Friday is a time for reflection. A time to look back on life and to consider the hardship and the suffering of many. Each day there is so much suffering in the world and whilst it seems so unfair, at times, suffering is needed on occasions. Suffering is needed so that other people can benefit. However, the world does not have to be that way. If everyone had more compassion for each other and if everyone had more love for each other the world could and would be so very different. For it is only when we prioritise material gain, usually money, over health and wellbeing. So Good Friday is indeed a time for reflection, to look back at the suffering indeed of Jesus Christ, but also to look at the suffering of everybody on this planet … [Read more...]
Words of Wisdom…Mother’s Day
Love is patient and love is kind. Love is different things to different people. Today, on Mother’s Day, there are additional pressures upon people. People that feel lonely, people that have been bereaved, people that have never been able to have a family of their own feel even more lonely than usual on today Mothering Sunday. But what does it really mean? Just because somebody buys you a bunch of flowers or another gift on Mothering Sunday doesn’t make them a better person than someone that doesn’t. Of course we all like to think that we are being cherished but this doesn’t mean that we are valued any less if we do not receive gifts that others may well have. They may well be displays of gratitude and generous displays but these very often hide a multitude of other things – whether … [Read more...]
Happy St David’s Day…What does yellow mean to you?
When we look at daffodils we see sunshine. We can feel the sunshine pouring down over us and it fills us with a sense of calmness and peace. For a moment as we are focussing on the bright yellow and the warmth we are fixed in that moment and it is a wonderful place to be. When we are surrounded by yellow we feel uplifted and nourished and that is why it is important for us to incorporate yellow into our lives. Whether it is yellow that we are seeing in flowers, yellow that we are wearing or yellow that we are eating it all helps us in our daily lives. So today on St David’s Day as you look around at the daffodils perhaps you can reflect on how you feel as you look at the colour yellow whether it is in daffodils, lemons as you are baking, yellow that you are wearing or anything else. … [Read more...]
A few words…Grief
Grief is something that cannot truly be explained. Grief is overwhelming. Grief is so powerful that it turns your world upside down. No one can prepare you for it. Grief is a representation of just how much that you have loved and you have lost. There are various stages that you go through in the process of healing following grief. There is no right way to grieve because we are all unique. We have to take just one day at a time and even one hour and one minute at a time in order that we can see that there will be light at the end of this difficult and challenging tunnel. It is so hard to comprehend when you are supporting somebody else going through grief. It is like having your heart ripped out of your chest. But each and every day you will get stronger and you will be able … [Read more...]
