STORMS

Storms come and go, We are blessed even if we do not acknowledge it, for every storm is a Cleansing. The storms in our life and the storms of nature. If we only have eyes to see and the heart to understand one would see how beautiful and clean everything is after the cleansing of nature. Yes things sometimes get over turned yet if we really knew how important it is, nutrients being spread, leave...s cleaned, natures movement even the lightning balances the earth when it strikes the ground (scientific data shows this) the burned charcoal of a burned forest fire set by nature, has been prooven to purify the earth and then the forest so that the new grows stronger, the burnt wood now charcoal, cleansing.

When we have a personal storm in our life, when we have an emotional upheaval after a while when we look at our life we will see that that personal storm was a good thing, causing a change in our self in some way. Now if we are in awareness and see it with loving eyes we will see that we have been moved to a change that will benefit IF WE ALLOW... if we go back to old patterns that caused the upheavel, we will create another storm with simular lessons... if we learn and are grateful we walk away clean and ready for the next step of love, Rather than sitting in a broken home feeling like a victom, we see the damage and start moving to a positive change, either moving from the house / situation or re modeling... turning the damage into a true gift of joy rather than lamentation... CHOICES

Relationship

Love in Relationships

Unconditional Love

Forgiveness (Matthew 5:25)

Understanding

 Communication

Compromise

Growth

Awareness of each others qualities

Two have come together as One

Yet you are two,

One garden,

 One Essence Rose,

One Essence Carnation,

 Side by side,

 Loving the qualities of each other .

 Admiring and loving

Yet neither should want the other to change to be other than who they are,

 Each has its own uniqueness

that gives the color and fragrance to the garden,

 To be loved and nurtured in its own. 

Should the Rose try to change the Carnation to be a Rose,

 No

 The beauty and the awe,

is the difference and also the compromises  one makes in order to live in harmony .

 Be willing to change,

Change is the essence of life.

Everything changes and grows,

 So to grow and love and honor the growth of each other,

 Neither being jealous or controlling,

To manipulate the other to remain the same,

Never stunting growth,

Always honoring that which is good,

Always walking with God as the Crown in the relationship,

The Sun so shines it’s Love on everyone in the Garden

Each receiving it’s own share of Glory,

To it’s own growth and power

and so too

grows the love

ever increasing

its fragrance

blessing all

who

beholds its beauty.

Lessons Judging a childhood

I  have been blessed these days to heal issues that were very  painful, to heal and see what each of my siblings have been carrying for years.  We each have a different story for we each experienced our pain differently.  Each had moments worse than the other, and some better.  WE did not talk to each other much as children nor as adults. 

 

Our life went separate ways and rarely meeting each other, and the pain of our childhood always the shadow not seen and always constant in our lives.  Keeping us away from each other.  Buttons would be pushed and off to our corner we fled.  Surviving the best we could.

 

We found each other again. And in our Joy of coming together I bought up a subject I was not aware would cause pain in my brother and sister.  And out from the shadows of our heart came all the pain and judgement.  Long forgotten memories and pains, too aweful for anyone even our selves to remember.  Here we were AGAIN LETTING THE PAST BRING PAIN TO THE NOW. 

 

We got through it, through it with LOVE, patience and facing the truth. However much was learned ...especially about Choices and how we hold onto pain of the past that hurt the NOW

The wisdom of my sister Linda, put our issue so beautifully ... the past is the past and we should not let IT desturb our NOW.

So now that we have seen felt and faced STUFF buried deep and forgotten or unknown ect. It is time to let go of that and live our new life in Love. We are adults now well over 40 :-D and it is time to live in our current time, to share our life NOW to walk with each other in Gratitude and Love. Sharing the hidden treasures that are our garden that we created from the compost pile of our past. Sharing the treasure that we have found and created from the treasures we DID find in our childhood... the gifts we got because of that experience.

My hun says all the time we create our own reality... and i say we did darn well with the seeds we carried in our pockets, with the yarn and material Linda found, with the tools and soil Steve found and me with my words and counsel and healings I have done, and I have been blessed to do emotional and physical healing (using the herbal knowledge or clues Grandma taught me and the gifts of Spirit God gave me) we have been blessed. And I see although each of us have had our share of pain, as adults we continued to learn and become better for it, and having a STRONG CONNECTION WITH GOD... AS IF GOD HAS HAD US IN HIS HANDS ALL ALONG... PROTECTING, LOVING , TEACHING....

NOW saying all that

i wish to say...

we were children ANY THING DONE IN THE PAST was done by children... IN PAIN ... do you know how children act up when they are in pain and in need... they get mean and they do things to get attention... they get mischievous, they get destructive...all crying out for LOVE ... acting out against who ever is there

We each have our shadows

We each acted up... I am grateful to know what i did.... for i have seen my report card of my life, that i started off one way and CHOSE ANOTHER... choosing Love instead of the self destructive anger and ways of my childhood

i left it all behind... we were children

do we judge a child forever ... and blame an adult for the child mis action

yes humanity does and it is sad how many people have been condemned because of an act as a child... I have learned a lot these days....and in my life I have held resentments and lost much quality time with family due to an action of our childhood.  What a waste of time and the gift of love lost ...however we have the NOW and the now is full of gifts once we let go of STUFF and embrace the gifts that life has to offer in Love

We were children and as teenager ...as well how many teens do you know make great decisisons... i appologize for leaving you behind Linda... I did not know you loved me or wanted to be with me... as you said we were separated by something that kept feeding us against each other...

No worries we cannot change the past...

We are here in the NOW and the now is all that matters

we are no longer children

our life

our choices

begin NOW
