Second Chances

Is it possible to get a second chance in creating what you are here to do without it being fatal?  Is it possible the angelic (insert whatever realms you believe in here ) help make shifts happen when you can't for your self?
I believe this all to be true for me.  As a kid I had several experiences with what I call the angelic realm "saving" my ass from danger.  For instance; when I was just around 7 or 8, I was riding my bike as fast as I could when I turned the corner of my street.  I must of hit something slippery because I lost control of my bike and went skidding towards oncoming traffic.  My body was getting scratched up because my bike was skidding on the concrete road right towards a cars front wheels, when I was pushed the opposite direction towards the curb.  I hit the curb and with fright shaking my very being I got up and walked me and my bike home.  Has this "push" happened again in my adult life, but this time out of a life path that wasn't mine to go down?

The past 4 months have been a time to revitalize my very essence, my eternal being.  Which has caused me to think about what I am here (on planet earth) to do?   To many people on a spiritual path, living a 'normal' life sounds like a cruel punishment,  but is it?  What is so 'normal' about being spiritual beings living a human life on this beautiful planet?  Normal is a matter of perspective anyways.  What is normal for some is downright strange for others!    

I was taught and believed for many years, that we create our reality.  I still do believe this, but in a much BIGGER perspective.  I feel with every ounce of my being because I have experienced time and time again,  that we are working with other forces (insert whatever belief you have here)  to co-create this crazy thing called, life.  To me, creating my reality means how I choose to receive, interpret, move forward it and work with what is dealt.  Astrology is a great example of this.  The planets shift to certain locations in the sky that can effect our moods for the day or week.  So what do when we become less self-centered and wake up to co-creation that is going on.  Life becomes an open pathway that is waiting to be taken.

So what is reality anyways - some say it is the space between your thoughts - the stillness - the light and dark of your mind.  I have lived a very serious spiritual life for many years and I now think that fun and being light-hearted is where it is at!  Nothing is permanent even when you/I hold on for dear life.  My Ivy plants even let go - leaves die and need to plucked off the vine for the new and healthier leaves to grow.

Thanks to all of my loving friends for your kindness - you have changed my world for the better..  Thanks to the angelic realm - I am listening.

Shock to the Heart and It's too Late. . .

This past couple of months my world has flipped upside down and around and then after I thought things settled, where flipped again.   A heart-breaking end to a relationship I was in for 6 beautiful, hard, romantic, challenging years.  It is a great cosmic joke, when you know you should end it with a person b/c you want different things in life and you don't b/c you love them so much - I hope that is the reason why I stayed so long - so he ends it in a quick 30 seconds with, "I really love you but I want to be friends" statement.  A shock to my heart and it's too late to end it with him now!  I think we both knew about a year ago that we needed to move forward from one another but wanted to keep trying.  For me, all the 'signs' where there, but I was under the delusion that I wasn't important enough to live the life I wanted and was more than willing to live his life.  Which as I am waking up seeing how many women fall into this misunderstanding of 'love' and 'commitment'.  The actual breaking up was tough, but what was even more tough was the aftershocks of the big shift.  I found myself learning more and more about what it is to be heart-centered, kind to myself, the benefit of boundaries, anger is good and distance is even better.  I guess sometimes I just need to be pushed into reality! 

I am learning to have acceptance for who I am right now.  Not for who I want to be, but who I am right now in this very moment.  I feel more in tune and aligned with my relationship with myself than I have in a long time.  I owe that to being open to experiencing this break-up exactly how I felt it.  I had a fantasy idea of who I should be during a split with being a "Spiritual Person".  But guess what - I am a human being that has emotions and as humans we learn to use the emotions as we do with all things in life to grow from. What I think is "Spiritual" is being really vulnerable and honest - raw - with yourself and others(when needed).  Releasing attachment to someone that I thought was going to be my life partner was HUGE for me.  I do want to make clear that I still love my ex and always will.  He is an amazing person and I thank him for everything we experienced together on our journey together.

Why I am gushing my feelings out to you,because that is who I am and it is what stimulated me to write this blog.  To write about what is being a "Spiritual Person" living in this great world.  I have lived many different angels of "Spirituality" and in hopes with writing about it to gain more insight for you and me!


This is blog is journey for you and me ~ I hope you will enjoy it and post comments!  I love comments.
