Dear Rainbow,

I needed to see your vibrant colors coming through the clouds.

So many things stirring in my heart.

News of loved ones,

friends and family sick and dying.

Our sisters and brothers in so much pain

all over the globe,

Mother Earth being treated as a money making product,

rather than the Sacred Being that She is.

Enough!!

 Thanks to you dear Rainbow

I can give thanks.

Give thanks that even through the pain and fear

can come the gentle bright light of hope and love.

LOVE...Creator...Spirit...

Knows and sees the bigger picture that I can not see,

and I am learning more and more

to trust LOVE in my own lack of understanding. 

And Rainbow reminds me once again,

that her presence is a message of Hope and Love amid

the dark and clouds.

Look...Seek...See...

and I/we will find 

New Life

Hope

Love 

and 

Peace

amid the dark and clouds.

Thank you, Rainbow

for your gifts to me,

today.

Dear Flower,

What caught my attention initially

 was your color and the fullness of your blossom. 

I am amazed at the number of 

individual petals that create your fullness,

and the unique full circle 

you create together. 

Without each one..you would not be you

in your fullness.

As  I look closer at your center

I see a whole new circle

of stems

and 

what appear to be seeds.

Looking deeper,

gives me a more complete

understanding of you

in all your richness.

And does not looking deeper

also give me a deeper understanding

of myself and others.

Too often, I/we see only the surface

and make decisions and judgments 

from there.

The strong stem next to you

reminds me too

that 

without them, you would not be!!

You teach me, visually

the reality of 

interdependence

for yourself

and all of your family members.

For so long, we in the human family have focused on 

 independence

and that has closed our eyes,  

to the reality

that like yourself

we humans are also interdependent!!

Our physical bodies

with all their systems and organs

keep us going daily without any 

specific directions from us!!

We are fed and clothed, because of the giving of life

by so many of our sisters and brothers in the plant and animal families, 

Any projects that we might undertake

are enabled by the giving and sharing of others.

And

before we close, thank you for the reminder that

what caught my eye was your unique beauty

and that like you,

each of us...has that same attraction..

Our Own unique beauty 

to share with the rest of our family.

Thank you flower, for this fascinating reflection with you.

Dear Earth Cave,

photo: from Face BookI 

I have no other name for you...I am fascinated by the coming together of a seeming earth cave,  jeweled green water and a large circular opening to a clear blue sky!!  

Seeing from the inside out...rather than the outside in..is what just came to me.

How would I live my life, seeing from the inside out rather than the outside in?

Wow...I truly was not expecting anything like that...Thank you.

The question stands..

How would I live my life 

Seeing from the inside out??

How do I see from the inside out??

I would begin to trust what is inside...

And what is inside??

The Wisdom and Love of our Creator

The Living Breath of All That Is!!

Wow...Wow...Wow...

Will I trust?

Will I ask??

Will I act?

How often did Jesus say...

"Go within!!"!

Before raising the "what ifs" of fear...

Think about, finding exactly what I/you need as you need it!!!

Wisdom

Clarity

Support

Love

Understanding

Peace

Joy

Humor

Guidance

How??

Seek and you shall find...

Ask, and you will receive!!!

Wow..Wow..Wow...

Go Within...

Seek....

Ask...

Act...

Dear Earth Cave, water and sky...

Thank you for the gift you have shared today

I am awed and grateful once again.

We have used a different format than when we have shared before.

Usually I'll reflect and share my thoughts and then ask for your response.

Today, You were giving responses as I reflected; a more real

inner conversation.

Thank you so much. 

I hear you saying, don't worry about the how of the conversation...

just ASK!!

It doesn't have to be pages long

We can be brief and clear!!
