Today is All Saint’s Day on the Catholic calendar. It coincides with my deceased father’s birthday which makes the day one of remembrance for me. I think of all those who have passed before me and I took a moment for each of them this morning when I awoke to say a prayer for them. I think it’s important to remember those who have gone before us and the gifts that they have given to us, the lessons we learned and the knowledge that we now have because of our experiences with them.
A new month for me is a beginning, just like each dawn heralds a new day and another chance to begin again. Peacefully I lay my head on the pillow at night, resting my brain and allowing whatever foibles of the day to be forgiven. I arise in the mornings with a fresh slate to do the best I can for myself and everyone else with whom I come into contact.
It is a blessing to be here today as it is everyday. I am grateful as I am sure you are too to be able to breathe, to live and to love. Sometimes it’s hard work to get through the day, but at the end of it, I hope that you find a soft, comfortable place to lay your head, your heart and your mind. Today, I am reminded to communicate with my soul and with others on a soul to soul level for each of us carries the baggage of life experiences. Oftentimes, at least for me, I find I forget to reconnect my heartstrings to my soul’s essence, to find gratitude in the experiences I’ve been delivered and to look for the blessings in each and every moment.
So today, take my hand…let’s walk baby steps towards the light. Let’s remember those who have passed with gratitude for their heartlights. Let’s connect with those who are here on Earth and appreciate them. Let’s smile, laugh and love all those souls. Let’s be the peacekeepers here on Earth. Let’s look to the Heavens with our heartlights shining and embrace the love that is ours by Divine Right. Let’s be in this moment, filled with peaceful loving energy and know in our hearts that we are embraced by God’s light and love.
Shine On!
