29-Day Giving Challenge

Since I am not a linear person and I only live by my inner clock and self calendar, I am now calling this Day 7! It may appear as if I have "fallen off the wagon" in terms of my blog activities, though so much has happened that it would take a small book to chronical it all. I've received countless blessings over the past few days since I have been "off line". I was blessed with the gifts of reconnection with family and friends. I was blessed with a fun weekend with a dear friend who lives a distance from me. My husband agreed to go along so I was gifted with traveling with my family which was a great joy. We picked up a beautiful Christmas tree on the way home and so I was then gifted with clearing and cleaning the house to prepare for the holidays (some gifts require more attention than others?!!!!!!)

I have been very aware of my gifting. I decided to play a little elf and gift my mother in law and my friend with pins. I left a little thank you note with an angel pin for my mother-in-law and a little teal colored dragon fly for my friend. Both were placed with a special note thanking them for begin who they are to me. I left the box, note and a little prayer and then quitely walked away. This is great fun and one of my favorite ways to give materail items.

Today's gives were very interesting. I so wanted to gift my friend with undivided attention. We made time for a lunch date and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hadn't realized how much I have missed here and we had a chance to catch up on all that has been going on. She just celebrated her 60th birthday and before I could even grab the ticket, she treated me to lunch! What a gift! She was a vision of radiance and peace. I am so awed by her and all that she has opened into. What a blessing she is to me.

The other interesting give is one that my spirit is giving me. I am being offered a window of the controversy around me. I feel peace within my being though in my personal life is in the midst of turbulence. I suspect it is a way for past karma to clear out. My husband has felt very resentful, confused and frustration by some of my choices, ok, most all of my choices! I know that my being has undergone DEEP transformations. I feel this within and so I know that it is also being reflected on the outside as well. Today I was given a real knock at the knees. There's been a misunderstanding and he took something very innocent and pure totally out of context~he lashed out energetically and emotionally in a way that my old self would have not been able to sustain. Yet the me right NOW was fully present and grounded in the vibration of truth. This is a great gift to me. I realize that my reality, as I have known it is changing, shifting and at times to appears to be crashing down around me and yet there is deep peace within me. I feel this is one of the greatest gifts that I have ever received and it comes from a Source that is beyond my mind and ability to even understand. I feel blessed and honored to be given this gift. I know I asked for it, I just didn't know what the package would look like. I never know that trusting myself was going to be so important. I used to put a lot of stock in what others thought of me. I lived their truth. Tonight I am very aware that it takes a lot of power to trust oneslf. It takes way more power to stand in one's truth, espeically when those closest to you do not understand or cannot support. My greatest gift thus far is knowing who I am, why I am here and being true to my truth. This is a gift that I am willing to share with others because I know how hard it was for me to break through the cycles of pain and the fixation of ego to get where I am at. For anyone reading this message, let me gift you with small reminder; You have everything within your being to be what you came here to be. Let nothing or no one stand in the way of this. When everything else falls down around you, if you have your truth, there is nothing else to need or want.

Infinite Blessings and thank you for reading this!

ME TOO! I realize that I am the vibration of peace. This is what I have been seeking within and what I choose to see reflected around me. This is a gift that I am very excited to give the world!
