LIFE ISN’T WAITING FOR THE STORM TO PASS….

Posted on by

Suzanne Bell quote : Life isn’t waiting for the storm to pass….
It’s Learning to dance in the rain…..

My storm has passed for now, has yours? I have had
enough of the sadness and challenges, it is time to look
for and at the good news that is on this planet.

Focus on news that is uplifting by going to
http://www.goodnewsnetwork.org

They offer a FREE newsletter and also
a reasonably priced membership for even
more good news. Their motto is
NEWS TO ENTHUSE.

This week’s newsletter offer two that especially
caught my eye…. Mum Shares Multi-Million Lotto
Win with Ethiopian Orphans and Dying Bulldog
Saves Owner from Fire.

There are other stories that might connect with your
interests. Check it out and I guarantee your stress
level and shoulders will come down.

I watch the news so I can send loving energy to
whatever is happening, locally and globally. Yet,
sometimes, I need a reminder to increase my energy
so that I have more to share with the world.

I know this weekend is not the legal Memorial Day
Holiday but traditionally it would be Sunday if we had
a Monday afterwards.

I wish to honor all those who gave their physical
and spiritual essence to protect and save me from harm.
Many families are not together for this holiday because they
are serving us Americans and their country.

I am proud to be an American and I honor the rest of humanity
around the world who have come to our assistance at some time
and whom we have assisted at some time.

Wake up Planet Earth citizens. We are a family
with diverse cultures and beliefs but we are ONE
SPECIES who have been given the privilege to
live on this beloved planet.

As we all live on ONE PLANET, what affects ONE affects ALL.
Let us use this time to spread LOVE of ONE ANOTHER.

Love and Light,

Mary Grace

HOPE, Easter’s promise

Posted on by

Happy, Happy Easter Everyone,

Can you tell this is my favorite Holyday, holiday? Of all the
reasons for celebration, Easter is my favorite.

It comes at a time of the year, at least here in Northeast, when
all things are in renewal. Our trees are budding, grass is
growing, birds are mating, lady bugs are appearing, etc.

Our sun is shining longer and for me, I am now just beginning
to see the sunsets which are such a treat for me to see over
the water and watching it from my deck or inside the house.

The birds are twittering again, such a joyful sound. The
turkey buzzards are cleaning up all the winters leftovers and
soaring high in the sky. Before I got my kayak, I used to ask
them to please take me up for a ride so I could enjoy the
water and freedom.

I think they were very happy when I got my kayak
because the very first time I got in, seven of them
appeared overhead and I swear I heard them chuckling
and breathing a sigh of relief.

I mentioned this to my oldest son who was a little
concerned about his mother going out on her own.
He said: Mom, they are just watching to see if you
are going to be their next meal”.

My son, ever the pragmatist, had me laughing.
I remember the look on his face as I took off,
I had told him I did this before on a vacation,
but I don’t think he believed me. The birds
knew and were here to give me a send off
and be happy for me with my new freedom.

As a mother, I don’t think I could have offered
my son for the sake of humanity as God did.
This fact gives me such HOPE as I know that
Mother/Father God would not allow their son
to die in vain.

Jesus, the Christ, came to show us that even when
things look the darkest as the events of Good Friday
represent, there is always an Easter. The sun (Son)
is always shining even if the clouds obscure it for
a time.

This is such a joyous occasion. Allow this day to
fill you with HOPE and confidence in your future.
We are so loved, Mother/Father God are watching
their children (us) learn to walk, fall down and get
back up again. We are like children learning ever
so much and with such enthusiasm for the simple
things in life.

Have you ever watched a child study nature in
awe and acceptance? Let us be like the children
we are. Loving all that is and looking forward to
the next adventure in life which we take for granted.

I would love to hear what was in your Easter Basket.
Go to my blog or send me an email.

Love and Light,

Mary Grace
