I thank you so much for all the emails I received sending me
such loving energy and encouraging words. It really helped
me through a rough period (my previous newsletter).
I know “This too shall pass” and I say it often as I am playing
with a challenge that is presented to me for my attention.
I am feeling much better since I have allowed myself to cry and
allowed the tears to cleanse the pain I was feeling.
But….having understanding and loving support from my friends
helps me much more than the words I say to myself. In fact,
today I received this message from Neale Donald Walsh in the
daily message he sends to all who have signed up for it.
On this day of your life, dear friend, I believe God wants
you to know……that sorrow makes us all children again,
destroys all differences of intellect.
Ralph Waldo Emerson said that, and he was right.
A good cry can be wonderful sometimes, and sadness
is nothing more than love announced. Sadness and
Unhappiness are not the same thing, and it is good
to remember that.
So if you’re sad…be glad. It says something about you.
And there are worse things. And there is this:
sadness cleanses the heart.
Love your friend,
Neale
How apropos!!!
I wanted to share the experience of finding just the
“right” card. I was in so much emotional pain that I
was not aware of the messenger who was right beside me.
It is only now on looking back that I recognize the
miracle of that encounter.
I was in the store looking for a Sympathy card for
my daughter who had just lost her husband and
with them being Atheists, I was having a hard time
finding a card that did not mention God, or angels,
or the next life or anything spiritual (none of which
they believe in).
Here I was looking for a card that was going against
her wishes to have no further contact with me and
I was stumped. My mother’s heart was crying but
it was not visible on the outside.
I circled all the card displays and could not find
anything that was appropriate. All of a sudden, a
woman appears and I mentioned the problem I was
having. She just reached over me and said:
“What about this one?”
I was shocked, it was perfect. Not only was it
perfect, it was purple. For those who do not know
me, I am known as the Purple Lady. I always
wear some shade of purple. Lavender is my favorite.
This card is lavender and is simple. It says only
“Memories” on front of the card when you open it says:
“Let them fill your mind,
warm your heart,
and lead you through.”
How perfect is that? I had hunted and never saw
it before this human angel pulled it out.
I thanked her and she just laughed. She said:
” I could not find mine but I found one for you.
Isn’t that the way life works? We can
help others easier than we can help ourselves.”
Then she simply left and I never saw her again.
Has that ever happened to you? You need something
and all of a sudden a person is there and your problem
is solved.
I call them my human angels because they show up
when I least expect them and when I need them
the most. I don’t remember asking but I must have
requested help from above unconsciously.
All I know is these angelic events make me chuckle
as they remind me that we always looked after even
when we don’t think so. Look for these angel
encounters because they happen to everyone but not
everyone is open to recognizing them.
Love and Light,
Mary Grace
