No More Crimes Against Humanity!

No More Crimes Against Humanity!

Children see and recognize the beauty of the world; they just need us to save guard them and the world they are inheriting.

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

 This blog was written previously about the children landing at our borders and are now living in camps – separated from their families. Now I am re-visiting this because I am so disturbed and hurt about what is happening in the Ukraine, Gaza, Sudan, Venezuela, Cuba and all over the planet where we are engaged in over 22 wars worldwide.   The plight of the people-families and of course THE CHILDREN have to be a global concern!

It has to stop! These wars of aggression and greed on the part of countries that are being run by tyrants clothed in greed and supremacy, must be dealt with.  We cannot sit in our homes comfortably and live as though this tyranny does not impact our lives.  We know that children are suffering.  We know what is fostering and supporting these crimes against humanity as well as the genocide that is happening right before our eyes.  There must be a united front to demand that those responsible for this terrorism that is devastating the lives of children, be stopped!

I can’t begin to tell you how devastated I am thinking about the children that are being snatched from their mother’s arms. What is going on in America? Have we lost sight of our core values, or was I mistaken in thinking we were a beacon light in the world standing for justice and compassion for all of humanity. I guess it was merely a smoke screen to hide who a large majority of people are in this country. I should have known better when I look at the truth of our history.

When I read the pages of people’s lives that have endured slavery, turned away from the shores of our country because they were people of color and we didn’t want to get involved. Native Americans whose land we stole and who’s lives and culture we destroyed. The Japanese camps, the homeless on our streets, the mentally and emotionally ill citizens that roam our streets in live in the dark cold bowels of the hell we allow them to squatter in.

Where are the politicians? Where are the educators? Where are the concerned parents? Where are our religious leaders and institutions that profess to care and serve these huddled masses all over the world? Where are we, the ordinary citizens of this global society. I am afraid that this act of kidnapping children from their parents, hides acts of human trafficking.

People, we have a responsibility to call out the people in so call power, the people who are supposed to hold God’s truth to share with mankind, the people who educate our children, the people who are supposed to protect us, the people of wealth, and just you and me,  that are supposed to be awake in our lives and have a conscious to do the following:
Stand up to crimes against humanity!
Stand up to those who can institute change!
Speak Up and hold people accountable!
Show up in love, respect, compassion and passion to be agents of change.  If we don’t take care of our children and families, society will crumble.

I know this is a heavy topic and might be uncomfortable to listen to, but I don’t have a choice.  I know that my life’s purpose is to advocate for children.  I know that children are the most precious gift that has been gifted to our humanity.  I know I have a responsibility to be true to what “Great Spirit” has instilled in my soul, so I do not apologize for speaking my truth for what is the purpose of our life if we hide our gifts and shelter our truth.

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

There Are No Holy Wars!

There Are No Holy Wars! There is a New Dawn Forth Coming Steeped in Unity of Spirit, Grace, Compassion, and Agape Love for Our Humanity.

There Are No Holy Wars!

There is a New Dawn Forth Coming Steeped in Unity of Spirit, Grace, Compassion, and Agape Love for Our Humanity.

 ***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

We have to stand on the promises of “Great Spirit” that goodness resides in the depths of our soul expression.  We were not envisioned and created to be separate from the “One Source that not only created us but intentionally gave us the breath of life from its breath. The killing and hate in our world cannot be justified as a “Holy War” because in the eyes of “Great Spirit”, there are no holy wars.  

There are no wars that justify being holy. What the world is engaged in now is Spiritual warfare! People it is about the evil grounded and expressed by all that seeks to separate us from our true identity and from our Divine Creator- The One Source”- “Great Spirit”-God.  These mutations of these soulless beings that stride to separate us are grounded in-

The actual physical, emotional, and spiritual-Separation from God- “The One Source”- “Great Spirit”-

Ignorance

Greed

Ethnocentrism

Racial supremacy

Poverty

Hunger for food to nourish both body and soul

Disenfranchisement

Mental and emotional illness

Fear of loss of something that is impossible to hold on to anyway!

Righteous indignation

Isolation

Alternative facts and truth

The Me-Myself-and I syndrome that blinds us to the needs of others.

Soulless beings that have forfeited the divine purpose of their earthly existence!

Ideology that we are no longer “our brother’s keeper”

You know in your “Spirit” when something is not of “God”-

You know in your “Spirit” what evil looks like and feels like.

We are being bombarded by that vibration every day, all day long, from every arena that they can infuse themselves into to cause distraction and chaos.

It might seem that the elements that ascribe to this intention of separation are having a field day right now, but as soon as we figure out that ultimately God is in charge and that love, peace, and the gift of life is in it’s self God’s power within us, we will rise up with wings of angels and reclaim this earth and all that God has endowed humanity with and evil will diminish until all there is -is God! Yes- God is love and all there is -is Love!

Wake up in your life and help to usher in that love- 

Speak truth and ethics!

Speak love and respect!

Speak compassion and patience!

Speak it and be it and the vibration that each of us resound will reverberate globally and shift the current that is destroying our planet and deconstructing the divinity of our souls!

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

Women of Compassionate Spirits

A Global “Call to Action”! # 13-Renewed

The Message Today is-Fearlessly Fearless-

Walking in the Footsteps of Our Ancestors

The Sacred Space for Transformative Agreements

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

 I am quietly yet intentionally observing the rising up of women in all areas of our society.  I don’t think people realize and are aware of what has been happening as women infiltrate the spaces that are usually saved for and run by men.  It amuses me because even though I know it was no small thing for we as women to be able to hold positions of power and influence, it seems from the outside looking in, that it has just happened effortlessly and almost in a rather magical way. 

No big recognition and celebrative acknowledgment, just a lot of behind-the-scenes preparation, strategic planning, and their genius at work.  It is so rewarding and inspiring to witness this mobility and accomplishments of women not just sitting at the “Table” or demolishing the “Sacred Ceiling” but actually positioned in places and spaces that impact our lives on a local, national, and global level.

 They bring that uniqueness of their carefully crafted divine gifts to usher into a situation or challenge a perspective that is more deeply in tune to the laws of the universe, and if they have really done the work that they were ordained to do, they bring in a spiritual essence of compromise, compassion, openness to being an “active listener”, and hopefully an sense of humility -not to be confused with a lack of self-esteem and self-love, but just to the point where it allows others to feel that their contributions are worthy of being considered. 

It is truthfully a balancing act that when done authentically and in earnest, has the potential of healing situations that might otherwise seem hopeless.  I am by no means making a blanket statement that all women fall into this category.  It takes a lot of work to come into the purpose for which you are divined to be.  It starts with an awakening to who you are in the eyes of “Great Spirit” and takes a recommitment to be the “YOU” that you were designed to be and then a willingness to step into the footsteps of your ancestors.

We were meant to be  guided and mentored on this path to bring to light not just the potential of who women can be and what women can do to enhance the nature and behavior of our lost and misdirected  humanity, but we are in fact “answering a ‘Call to Action’, that “Great Spirit” is moving in us to fulfill the original design of how humanity should function.  “Great Spirit” is awakening our memory.

We need each other and we need time and space to support each other.  I am proposing that women all over the world start in their families and communities “Women Sacred Circles” where women that are seeking to be in alignment with “Great Spirit” come together to formulate “Transformative Agreements” that speak to how we can nurture ourselves so that we might nurture and support in each other.

I would like to challenge the women in these sacred circles to commune on issues we are facing in their families, communities, their country, and globally and connect the dots as to how the issues that are plaguing us as individuals and as a collective humanity are challenges that have answers if we but work together in harmony and alignment with not just each other but in alignment and in connection with “Great Spirit” who sees all, hears all, and knows all. 

This is how the healing will begin, and we will evolve  as a humanity that is grounded in being our highest selves.  WE are walking in the footsteps of our ancestors, and we are fearlessly fearless.  We know that we are loved and protected by them.  Move in grace and beauty with the genius of your spirit and what can be accomplished is beyond our imagination.

We know that there is a united energy that is trying to silence us and remove us from positions where we are needed, but as the Negro Spiritual says,

“WE Shall Not Be Moved,  We Shall Not Be Moved,

Just like a tree that’s planted by the waters,

We Shall NoT Be Moved”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

Simple Elements on How to Create a Beautiful World!

Eleven Elements That Are the Ingredients to Sustain Our Humanity- According to the Dalai Lama

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

📌 Dalai Lama Quotes: On February 25, 2014 I had the pleasure and honor of hearing the Dalai Lama share his wisdom with us on what we need to be in the world. These are my reflections to his wisdom.

Date: February 25, 2014 

Subject: Dalai Lama Quotes

1. Be kind whenever possible.

1a. (Beth Evans adds: This involves practicing being your highest self which is a life long discipline and promotes mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well being.)

2. In the practice of tolerance one’s enemy is the best teacher.

2a. ( I have an aversion to the word tolerance as being a misfit in terms of the divinity of the human design. I think that compassion for those that live in a space that is not their highest expression and puts them at odds with other fellow “human beings” requires us to step away from fear and judgement and respond with compassion and to hold an intention for them that they release their fear and sense of “not being enough” and embrace the fullness of being loved and accepted for who they have the potential of showing up as”. This is the practice of “allowing”.


3. Love and compassion are necessities not luxuries, without them humanity cannot survive.

3a. (Beth Evans adds: Cultivating humanity in ourselves and supporting it in the growth and development of others is really our divine purpose. The tools of love and compassion not only support humanity on a global level, but leads to a happy and enriched life for those that utilize these tools on a daily basis!)


4. We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.

4a. Beth Evans adds: Peace is a state of mind that wells up inside of us and gives us the ability to live in the present

5. In order to carry a positive action we must develop here a positive vision.

5a.When we carry a positive attitude and identity, we create a positive environment and responses with infinite possibilities for goodness.


6. I am just one human being.

6a. (Beth Evans adds: But imagine that your potential to create beauty, love, joy, peace, justice, compassion, and live a life of integrity is only defined by what you can imagine and commit to manifesting-you could positively impact the world and fulfill your divine purpose!)


7. The roots of all goodness lie in the soil of appreciation for goodness.

7a. We are born into this world as “goodness”  being the identity of our souls. Our roots grow deep throughout  our lives.


8. Our prime purpose in this life is to help others.

8a. And if you can’t help them at least don’t hurt them. 


9. If you want others to be happy practice compassion.

9a. You must first be compassionate and gentle with yourself in order to know how to be compassionate and gentle with others.


10. The best way to resolve any problem in the human world is for all sides to sit down and talk.  

10a. (Beth Evans adds: The art of talking or communicating involves listening attentively with an open and receptive mind. The art of communicating successfully is one of the greatest gifts in the human design. Once activated respect, understanding and compromise come into play which promotes resolution and positive relationships.


11. When you practice gratefulness there is a sense of respect toward others.

11a.We must live our lives from a place of gratitude in order to see the blessings we have received.

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression on yet another beautiful sunset of your life’s journey.   May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

Tiny Tips for Moms and Dads-#11- There is Joy in the Morning, and Peace in the Night, When You Realize –What a Blessing Your Children are!

Just Amazing Perfection! 

 

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

There is Joy in the Morning, and Peace in the Night, When You Realize –What a Blessing Your Children are!

Our children are the true miracles of life that bring us love, joy, peace, and contentment. 

As my elders and ancestors would attest, “there is joy in the morning”! It’s like our cups are so full and overflowing, that at times we can’t catch our breath.   It seems that we are so consumed with an abiding love for them that they fill our hearts and souls with unimaginable joy, fulfillment, and divine purpose, for it is truly an awesome gift to be able to parent a child. 

I am not ignoring the challenges will have to experience while on this life’s journey with them but trust me it is worth every sacrifice and fortitude that we are called to make, because children give to us an unconditional love and acceptance that no one else has the soul essence to share.  There is a cycle to this because as a parent, we in turn are the ones who have the capacity to do that for our children.  There is an instinctual bond from the womb to eternity.

Fathers are bonded differently to mothers in that they instinctually go into a protective stance that never ends and that no one can sever between the child and father.  It is as if they grow in heights that can reach from here to the beyond.  Parents carry a special and unique human expression that goes into effect when they have a child to raise, nurture, and guide. 

We seem to tap into in automatically if everything in our own life makes us open and available to committing ourselves to the position of being parent.  Depending on all the circumstances of our life, it is important for us to be ready to step into parenthood because it is a lifetime commitment.  I can’t begin to verbalize or articulate what the experience has held for me in my life.

I do so love children, and to have a child of my own, has been the greatest gift of my life.  I cherish so much of what she has brought to the fabric of my life.  The sound of her voice when she is excited makes my heartbeat faster and her excitement runs through my body like a shock wave.  When she cries, I tremble inside and I feel her tear drops falling on my heart. 

When she is proud of herself, I feel like I will burst with pride and find ways to acknowledge how I am so supportive of what she has accomplished.  When she is filled with joy, I light up like a thousand neon light bulbs!  When she is at peace and knows that all is well with her soul, my soul is in a stance of peace and contentment!

You see parents are connected to their children physically, emotionally, and spiritually. When we awaken into our status of being a parent, we will know “Joy in the Morning” and “Peace in the Night”, when they are safe and sound in bed fast asleep.

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize how intricately you are connected to this life that you have brought  on to this planet that has its own unique and “Divined Identity” and “Divined Purpose. May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are your journey through parenthood, and what you are not only gifting humanity, but how the life of your child is a blessing to you, and how you are a blessing to your child.

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner.

One Divine Creator, One World, One Divine Humanity!

Chapter 51 –from the upcoming book-

Our Mantra Prayers to Quiet the Mind and Inspire the Soul!  

If we but acknowledge the magnitude of what our Creator gave us on this planet, we cannot help but to be humble of “Spirit”!

Our Mantra Prayer for Humility~  

I dream my divine inheritance and in it know who I am. I awaken in humility as more of what “I Am” is revealed in all that I do and all that I say.  Let my actions and words demonstrate a “spirit” of humility that makes me conscious of the presences and importance of others that engage in my life. 

I realize that humility is rooted in gratitude and that in turn my attitude reflects the humility that is seeded in my soul expression.  I understand that when I am humble of spirit, that I am accessible to “Great Spirit” and all the blessings that are infused in my life’s journey.

Our Mantra Prayer for Today:  Humility”

Let the words of my mouth and the actions of my “Soul expression” be given and received from others with humility and gratitude for the blessings engrained in humility.

Ashé! Have a Blessed Day!

Remembering that–We each have our own “destiny purpose” gifted us from birth.

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

 Dear Niki,

We am so proud of all that you have accomplished and contributed to our humanity.  I am glad you had the courage to step back into the Academic Community to feed your mind and nourish your soul.  It was not an easy undertaking considering working full time and going to grad school full time. The trips to San Francisco for in class sessions and navigating a presence on the job.  Investing in your relationship and making sure that you could be present with your family.  I am so excited about what you have created that will be of service to humanity in terms of us being more intentionally and thoughtfully communicative with each other. 

You of all people in the professions that you have dedicated yourself, to both in law enforcement and the United States Coast Guard, you have witnessed first-hand that the tools of effective communication can be a matter of life or death.  You are now in a position that you are moving into the next chapter of your life and this experience in grad school has been a step in the right direction.  This project of yours will blow up on a global level and to think this is only the beginning.  I am proud to announce that you have now been excepted to the Academy of Art, in San Francisco, and will be pursuing a “Master of Fine Arts degree in “Photography”.  We as a family have so been waiting for you to show the world the gifts you carry in the arts. 

Loving you always and forever- your Mommie and Family

 

Accolades For Leilani-

Master of Art -Ph.D. Degree In Depth Psychology

With an Emphasis in Community Liberation, Indigenous and Eco Psychologies

Pacifica Graduate Institute- May -2026

Dear Lei,

We are so proud of you Leilani for following the calling of your “Spirit”.  You had an intuition that this degree was to be a steppingstone on your journey to fulfill your “Divined Purpose and Destiny”.  You had the insight to know that this work would bring into fruition a pathway on which you were able to not only research and polish your natural spiritual tools or gifts, but that what you had to contribute to that academic community would bring into play a sense of making people deal with aspects of their life experience that had close them off from “Spirit”. 

 

You found your voice and your voice found you.  Managing work full time, motherhood to three amazing children, a husband that showed up as a partner, and going to grad school full time was an amazing feat.  But as God would have it, the beautiful loving relationship you have with your mother, supported your courage, tenacity and determination to meet each challenge the institution failed at, only strengthened you for doing what is ultimately God’s will for your life. 

By this time next year, you will have completed the entire program and graduated with your doctorate degree.  In the meantime, congratulations on the completion of your master’s degree and stay the course.  Loving you always and forever- Your Family

 So Ladies-

P.S. I just want to tell your ladies that all your ancestors and elders are standing in prayer for you.  We know you and we see you.  We will always be there to love you, protect you, and guide you.  There is a whole of dancing going on in Heaven and in LA today!

 P.P.S.S.

Thanks for going to schools in Santa Barbara and San Francisco cause we have had a ball being on the trail with you guys!!!  Our trips have been great!!

Look to The Skies From Whence Cometh Our Understanding and Connection to the Spiritual World.

Listen-Reflect- Receive

Looking to Our Ancestors for the Answers

Our Collective Human Experiences

These are my “Clouds” today. I see them clearly posing their majesty above our human constructs.

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

 “Great Spirit, open our eyes to see beyond what is visible, and soften our hearts to receive what cannot be spoken.”

In this world where we struggle to find common ground, common interest, common values and the ability to communicate effectively with one another, maybe this experience or practice of “Cloud Watching”, could be connected to some of the ancient traditions and used as a means of connecting us, or for some cultures, reconnecting us to “Source”.  Maybe it is a simple practice that lends itself to calling us to “Stop”, “Look” and “Listen”, to more nuances of wonder and beauty in our life.

 Maybe we can come to an understanding that “Source” – “Great Spirit” is trying in a multitude of ways to “Get our Attention” or “Show us how we are not alone on this journey, that there is love and protection operating in our life, but that we are not “Still enough” or “Cognizant enough” to recognize and appreciate the signs or messages that are every present with us.

We have to be intentional about making a sacred time and space to go into communion with “Great Spirit” so that we don’t miss the messages or confirmations that “Great Spirit” has for each of us as individuals and as a collective humanity.  I really believe when you live a life grounded in gratitude, everything in you and around you looks and feels different from the super imposed illusional life that the systems and fraudulent elements of this world try to suck us into.  It is living from this vantage point that we find each other and begin to find common ground on which to build a communicative, compassionate and humane humanity. 

Find your sacred space and time today.  Find your “Cloud” to gaze at and in that moment listen for the still quiet voice that rises up within you to communicate with “Great Spirit”.  Trust me, you’ll feel a peace that surpasses all human understanding, and a joy that feeds your soul. 

Remember-“May we remember that we are never separate from the sky above us, only invited to notice.”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Andean & Mesoamerican Sky Watching-

***For translation of the text of the blog: touch the Blue Globe on the top right-hand corner

“Great Spirit, open our eyes to see beyond what is visible, and soften our hearts to receive what cannot be spoken.”

I think it is important at this point to give a little more context to why I feel “Great Spirit” has put this series in my spirit.  I have been feeling the need to reflect on what ancient cultures understood about the living relationship between our humanity, nature, Spirit, the sky, and the Earth.  As I am learning, many Indigenous traditions had an intuition that clouds were about more than just the “weather”.  They understood and saw that clouds were living messengers, carriers of memory, ancestors, omens, blessings or communications between realms. 

This resonates with something deep within my soul as a memory.  There is a reason the Indigenous cultures like for instance the Andean culture, the Inca Empire, the Quechua peoples, Aymara peoples and even earlier cultures like the Chavin and Tiwanaku cultures of South America had a relationship to the clouds.  Clouds were sacred living spirits.  Beyond the practical life necessity of providing rain for their agricultural needs, clouds represented fertility, renewal, divine provision and ancestral presence.  Unlike us today, they believed unusual cloud formations reflected imbalance between humans and nature.   There was a need for harmony which they saw as sacred and reciprocal between people and creation.  I think this is an element that is missing in our lives today.

Looking back at the Mesoamerican cultures like the Maya and Aztec people, they interpreted clouds as being sacred because they carried water from the heavens to Earth.  Clouds were seen as symbols of mercy, warning, blessings, and cosmic balance.  They saw everything as interconnected so that clouds could signal seasonal changes, ceremonial timing, agricultural preparation and spiritual transitions. 

These cultures and traditions saw humanity as part of nature, not separate from it.  These traditions were rooted in the understanding that clouds were relational, spiritual, communicative and alive with meaning to take notice of. 

I think the point today is that we have separated ourselves from the real relationship we should have with nature and “Great Spirit”.  We have become too “Civilized”- please take note that I feel the word civilized is an attribute that is rapidly vanishing from the character of what humanity should hold.  My intention today is to bring to light that we need to help ourselves and our humanity recover its sacred sensitivity again. 

Children still operate and possess those sensitivities of -wonder, observation, intuitive connection, symbolic imagination and an emotional relationship with nature.  We need to protect that sensitivity instead of suppressing it.  We would be much healthier adults, and our world would stand a better chance of sustainability if we valued that gift of sensitivity to the divine messages that are being sent our way. 

Remember- “that we are never separate from the sky above us, only invited to notice.”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.

Look to The Skies From Whence Cometh Our Understanding and Connection to the Spiritual World. The Chinese Cultural Perspective -“Auspicious Clouds”-

Listen-Reflect- Receive

Looking to Our Ancestors for the Answers

“Great Spirit, open our eyes to see beyond what is visible, and soften our hearts to receive what cannot be spoken.”

My Cloud Message Today! Balance and Harmony in Life!

Cultural Perspectives of the Significance of “Clouds”.

Chinese Traditions (Symbolic Meanings)

In the Chinese culture, clouds which are referred to as “Auspicious clouds (祥云) are seen as symbols of good fortune and harmony.  The shapes and artistic formations of the clouds are woven into the art and mythology of the Chinese culture.  Certain clouds reflect the balance of heaven and earth and historically are seen as signs of blessings or transitions. 

Once again clouds are seen as connection to the spirit world sending messages to let us know that we are not living life on just this plane of existence.  This relationship with “Clouds” in the Chinese culture validates their understanding that there is more interfacing in our life experiences then what is seen in the visible world. 

I like that reference to the clouds as being “Auspicious”!  The very meaning of the word lends itself for me anyway, as showing support, protection, and guidance.  I find a sense of peace when I gaze at them.  What amazes me more so now than ever is that they are constantly drawing me to look up at the sky and notice not only their configuration, but their unbelievable beauty.  The energy they emit across the sky, seem for them to be effortless and represents the natural order of the universe. 

The very idea that no matter where you are in this vast world of ours, there they are.  They teach us whether we realize it or not, that we too have the freedom to move, to change the direction and position of our life just like them.  It’s a choice!  It’s a gift! Find a cloud that speaks to you today and move into that graceful energy of endless possibilities.

Remember-“May we remember that we are never separate from the sky above us, only invited to notice.”

So, breathe deeply! Close your eyes and visualize something that brings you back into homeostasis with your soul expression.  May today bring you a sense of peace, joy, and moments of feeling loved and validated for who you are and what you are gifting humanity.
