Happy Sunshine & April Showers












Last week so many of you contacted me to declare that keeping our heads in the clouds may help temporarily in taking our minds off difficult life situations. However when seeking relaxation and rejuvenation water is our most calming remedy.

For those of us who are reflecting on the deeper questions of life while spending time near water please consider that water comes from the clouds.


Still being immersed in water soothes the mind, body and spirit. Thank you all for that reminder.

In any case (clouds and/or water) I wish you all peace and blessings in your most life affirming choice of contemplation.

Happy Sunshine & April Showers!

Keeping Our Heads in the Clouds




Deep Reflection & Relaxation
 

Keeping our heads in the clouds is often the best place for it to be in order for us to move away from our daily stresses and reconnect to the majesty of eternal nature that is far greater than our present condition.

We've all had instances where we've put aside a difficult work assignment, a paper we were writing or a life challenge we were grappling with. To get away from it all we may chose to take a walk to clear our heads, have a lunch break with friends, spend a weekend in the country to get out of the noisy city or take a trip to the city to move away from the quiet of the country.  Often when we return we find we have new solutions to our challenges.   Sometimes we may find we are able to sail through prior obstacles with an ease that we would have thought unimaginable prior to our taking a break from what we believed was an impossible situation.

Let's take time each day to silence ourselves and relax, to listen to good music, to read inspirational words or  meditate. Then come back to our life's challenges with a renewed energy.                              .

Spending time daily with our heads in the clouds may help us live a more peaceful and productive life here on earth.


Peace & Blessings

FROM 40 DAYS OF LENT TO EASTER





Greetings Supporters,

Several of us started out weeks ago sacrificing at least one of our regular temptations for lent.    Some of us may feel we did battle with the devil himself to abstain from the vices we chose to forego at this time of year.  Others may feel that a burden has been lifted in our lives by  having refused to succumb to something we felt was a vice that we could not live without.

No matter how we believe we fared there has been growth for us all.    We have reached the end of our lent journey together and the experience has bestowed many blessings on us all.

Please take this time to reflect and count them.



  HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
