Dear Blue...

I was looking for you and then I was disappointed when I found you. I'm sorry. I wasn't disappointed in finding you, as much as I thought you'd be in some sort of special setting and

yet here you are fully you in all your beauty and I'm feeling disappointed!! Commune with you, you must be thinking..you ungrateful!!!

And yet, as I sit here looking at you I hear myself saying "isn't that the trap we allow our selves to fall into.." looking for the "special" the "spectacular" and not seeing the fullness and beauty of our very selves. We don't need a special setting..we are beautiful as we are.

I'm not sure why I haven't communed with you sooner as your family has a special meaning in my life as you know. I've been shying away from communing period. This is silly I tell myself and yet I know from the wisdom that's been shared with me it is far from silly. I don't want to appear foolish..folks are going to think I'm nuts. Here we go again..one minute I'm most comfortable with all this and the next I think I've lost it.

I need clarity and wisdom dear Blue. You know the stirrings of my heart what is it that holds me in.. keeps me back from embracing my kinship with you and all our relatives?? Or is that not it at all...what do I need to hear tonight? Please share your wisdom with me..thank you.

Dear Assunta...

I'm glad you picked me..I was afraid I wouldn't be chosen ..just because I wasn't framed in a nice background like my friends...and yet you chose me. You saw me in a different way and you chose...isn't it funny we were both being trapped by the backgrounds; and isn't it interesting that it is our so called "personal backgrounds" that can be a trap for us again and again if we get stuck there.

The scenery around us..the setting no matter how beautiful IS NOT US!! Backgrounds can enhance our lives but never take the place of them. Are you enough? Am I enough? I am one small vibrant and strong creature..you found me important...you see me as valuable. That helps me to know that "I am Enough", Being Me is enough. I invite you to learn more about me.

You are learning more and more about you and are becoming more and more at peace with the beauty of YOU, the fullness of YOU. YOU ARE ENOUGH. You are wondering and waiting for the big change, the big event the spectacular moment that will tell you that you are Enough.

Stop waiting dear one and KNOW from this day forward that you are enough.

Be YOU. BE THE FULLNESS OF YOU and that might mean ..doing more of what you are doing right now..commune more often...and we can share our strengths and the power that enables us to do what might seem impossible...like my yearly trek to a warmer climate, which is all part of being me.. as honoring your needs and challenging your fears are a part of you..

We are fragile and beautiful and strong and powerful.. as ourselves, yes even more so together.
