Dear Clouds

When I first saw you, I thought of your presence as a blanket of lace.

I love how you filter the beautiful blue of sky and 

sun's light through you. 

The calmness of sister water, seems to  focus our attention 

more directly on your lacy blanket.

I am struggling today dear clouds

and I appreciate so much, your lace and light, and intricate beauty.

Thank you for reminding me that clouds can bring us light.

Yesterday when I was fearful and afraid of a potential for 

something not good,

what actually came forth was an affirmation of  good health.

I have been resisting strongly the reality that my physical self needs 

assistance to get things done 

and 

that my physical limitations do not allow me to be present 

to affirm our support and solidarity with our hurting sisters and brothers.

I tell myself a thousand times of the true power of prayer

and of the reality of my "Being Present in Spirit"

yet

I think...It is not enough and I have failed.

You have shown me the power of clouds to give life and hope..

Help me to let go, To stop resisting and accept what is, 

and to TRUST  in the abundant power of LOVE

as I walk in the unknowns of my life.

What would you say to me, dear clouds??

Dear One...you truly are resisting a reality that for you is very real

and that resistance drains you as much as your physical needs.

You HAVE NO IDEA of the full strength and power

 of Prayer and your presence "In Spirit"!

Don't belittle, what you do not yet fully understand the power of.

Prayer and presence is more than ENOUGH

when done with focused intention, attention and love.

With a smile we say, to you, dear one;

 practice what you often preach. 

Take Good CARE of YOU

Attend to your needs,

emotional, mental, spiritual and physical.

And 

 live with intention, focus, joy and love.

Send out the energy of prayer and love to all in need.

Be Present in Spirit, to all in need.

In doing so...you will see

the abundant fruit of 

 Prayer and Your Presence in Spirit.

You are loved much...lighten up, you are taking things way to seriously.

Things are difficult yes, but you are not alone..and it is not all up to you.

 Keep your sense of humor active and take time for fun.

Dear Flaming Gold Sky,

Thank you for the beautiful Gift of YOU.

With all the pain in our world you give me hope, joy and peace.

Your bold expansive beauty overpowers the darkness,

above and below.

It proclaims to me,

Yes, things are changing and difficult

Yes, there is deep pain and sorrow

BUT

The Golden Light of LOVE

is stronger than all of it.

Note, every golden particle of Light!

Together...Together..Together..

We weaken, diminish and eradicate 

the power of the darkness.

Let YOUR light shine...Let YOUR light shine

and know

as many of our Sisters and Brothers have known

through the years,

Yes...We Shall Overcome

and 

Yes...We Can!!!

Si Se Puede!!!

Dear Sun, Sky, Trees and Clouds,

I love your diversity of color.

Each of you bring 

a softness, richness and depth 

to the whole.

Once again, you remind me

 that it takes all of you

to make this view complete.

The many colors, offset the deep dark.

The deep dark magnifies the many colors.

The golden sun, playfully peaks through

the clouds and tree branches.

When I look at my daily living,

Am I truly aware of the diversity

or do I allow myself to get bogged down

in the dark?

Thank you for reminding me

to see the diversity, the beauty and the color in life,
along with the dark and the light.
