Like brush strokes made with angel wings, the gift of sunrise laid out in the eastern sky, a true panacea of color to excite the prisms in our eyes. Truly an experience given by God to prove his generosity to all creation. It is a selfless gift he gives us as a reminder that he is lovingly tolerant of us. Give thanks for the breath and sight we receive after each night’s slumber so we may relish in the gift of life!

On the pristine pages of a new day a polar express, graces the land with arctic wonder. Winds are lacking as the sunrise takes its rightful place in the eastern skies. As you step into this frozen moment you visualize what it is to feel alive. Your breath exists and your spirit suspends on the wind in small drops of moisture. While you traverse the tundra conditions your pulse quickens as does your step and only after you have retreated into your ambient conditions do you realize the invigoration in your travels. Be grateful for the conditions which remove us from our comfort zones and ignite our awareness that our senses are reborn on the dawn!

Glorious Reunion

Spirit wings glided into my dreams last evening. A great calm and serenity prevails and the vision appeared. This vision was familiar and of shallow breath.  Excitement filled the halo of my dream and I looked up to ask the spirits identity. In the glory of old he stated he walked the earth among good men and suffered as they do. While he walked on this earth, he asked for guidance himself and was pointed to a true heavenly direction. He then knew he would shed his earthly form and pain and that he was worthy to reside with all good spirits. Alongside him an even greater aura stood but remained silent. This spirit too was all too familiar and smiled an ancient smile of contentment and held this audience with stately presence.

                I knew at this moment that the figures were more real than imagined. The message that they carried was of peace and restful content. In the month which holds the memory of his passing, my brother Pat came to me with a resounding presence to assure he was living, living well and in the company of another great soul….my Dad!

They continue to hold the gates of the spirit world open to protect us and comfort us when we prepare to shed a tear in their memory.

Thank you spirit for the opportunity to channel and understand without fear the passing of loved ones for they have achieved a nirvana, a place to call home. Rejoice for them and for us for as we seek what they already have found!

Love ushers in on the wings of destiny and brings the promise of lives that are joined together. It is an eternal love forged in ancient times and repeated through the ages. So strong a bind that even though our lives have been many the love has remained one. The threads of this true love are held by the strength of the hearts which have shared a legacy of centuries. This love is fashioned on the immortality of the universe and continues like circular rhythmic spheres as one love bathed in grace. It is a love that pours from the heart and fills our souls and it is a love that holds the beauty of God. We have formulated a perpetual journey of love on angel wings and lightness is the air that carries our love. You are the queen in the kingdom of my heart”

I thank the dawn and the brilliance of a new day for the opportunity to be with you. The spirits in the universe saw fit to have you grace my presence and I do not know why I was chosen. I am humbled by your charm, your compassion and caring for others. The brilliance of a new day competes with your beauty and charm. The world comes alive when you open your eyes and provide the gift of your gracious heart and soul on the day. To witness your existence and the fervor you give to the gift of life I am truly amazed that I am witness to this every day. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the depth of my heart and soul. I know I am not perfect but because of you I strive to make you proud as I am of you!

With a watchful eye the crescent moon welcomes the newborn sunrise. A pure celebration of winged spirits opens the predawn curtains on the day. Community business echoes in the chattered conversations of black birds, grackles and terns. Each species presents a song passage describing their reason to be in this water meadow. Movements by soft breezes layer across the inboard tide, filling all the recesses of the land with the next moon phase moment. Even a chorus of feeding squirrels provides their crescendo from the neighboring marsh woodlands.Sunshine continues to be the spotlight that lights this stage and brings high emotion and gratefulness to occupy a front row seat in nature’s symphony. Each season we enter this outdoor music hall and give thanks for another selection from mother earth. The music scores are composed from nature and every note and chord travels on each silent whisper of wind. The harmonies bring true excitement and the only cost to attend is a seat taken in silence as the marsh comes alive!

One of life’s great joys is simple and powerful. It begins with you attaching a small, plastic, red and white fishing bobber to a fishing line and allow it to calmly sit by a placid pond. Immediately, your level of attention and anticipation increases, your eyes are glued for the appearance of circular signals and this fuels your excitement of what lurks just below the surface! This small, plastic float, for a moment in time, becomes the center of your universe and nothing else matters. It is these simple moments which provide the greatest reward!

Thanks for joining me!
