Saddness

Everyday life throws things our way that can either make us sad, or make us rejoice. Loss of a loved one creates sadness. I have had a lot of sadness in my life.  We are all responsible for how we react to the loss of someone we care deeply about. We can dishonor them by not moving on with our life and staying in the past. By this I mean dwelling on how they died, and not thinking of how God swept them up in his arms and soothed them and took them to a better place. Our loved ones don't want us to sit in a chair surrounded by things. That is not what relationships are built on. It was a loving touch or look or the laughter, the first born child and the wonderment of discovering a new flower poking it's head up towards the sky. Remembering people who have gone before us should be done with joy. The joy of the life that they lived, and how they saw things. And no matter how long they have been gone, they will never be forgotten. So as I sit here, I give thanks that the people whom I loved are looking down at me and know I have made the choice by keeping them in my heart. And not by their worldly stuff. Stuff is stuff it doesn't define us. How we live is what defines us. I choose to live my life full of the good memories that people leave behind, and the lessons that they taught me. I hold them in my heart and not in my hand.

Messages From The Moon...Christmas Day 2015

Merry Christmas from the Moon. I am Blessed. For some of us the past year has been filled with loss, of loved ones and friends, but I know that I shall go on, just as all of you will. I always keep in my heart that the people who have gone onto greater things are here when we need them. So to all of us just know that your loved ones watch over you and hug you from above. Hi Mom and Dad, thanks for watching over me. I want to say a big THANK YOU to our Service Men and Women, who keep us safe. May God watch over you. To my Family and Friends I love you all so much and wish you all Happiness and Health. To those of you traveling I know you will be safe as well.

That is the way I feel when I have returned to earth and my earthly routine. I awaken early each day. 3:15 a.m. the house is silent. The cats look at me with sleepy eyes, as I prepare for another day. They know my routine, it never changes here. Bathroom first, stretch my back, brush my teeth, look at my bed head, yup looks good, pick out my clothes, cat sitting on the sink, check, cat in the closet, check, get dressed, look at the time. Feed and water the kitties, make sure all is good and well, pet the cats, check the stove. OCD. Check. I head out the door, weather good. Wow I'm already tired. I head for my favorite coffee spot. Yes the nectar of the Gods. COFFEE. I drive to work. Upon arriving I get everything ready for the day. People are counting on me. The day never slows down, customers to wait on, orders to be made, vendors to deal with, making crabby people happy, doing paperwork. Moving, moving, moving. Boy do I need to sit down. I need a nap. Maybe later. After ten hours of dealing with whatever has come my way I can go home. Maybe relax. Nope the Grandson is starving. You would think he could fix a sandwich.  Right. The kitties are hungry for attention, the dog is underfoot, the kitchen is a disaster. I am longing for the Moon, with its silence and calming effects. Yet I go on. Tomorrow is another day. Yay!

Mesages from the Moon. The Tides of Time.

Time has a way of running from us, seems silly to put it that way, but as I grow older time has a way of escaping quickly from me. So I make the best of my time and I suggest that you do as well. Life is about living and since none of us know for sure how long we have left on this earthly plane, it is best to live each day as, Life lived well, Live it fully, have no regrets, LIVE. Everyday is a bright new day, and just waiting for me to reach out and embrace it for all it's worth. I don't care if the sun is shining, or the skies are raining. I make it the Best Day. I tell myself this every morning after I give thanks for another day to experience whatever is put in my path. It is about turning negatives into positives. We all have problems, but for one moment don't dwell on them. Dwell on living, and living and living. Say "I can do this today." Today I live today I cherish my life and I can do anything and everything. No one can steal your time to live unless you allow it, and choose carefully those that you wish to share your time and most importantly who you want to share LIFE with. Weather you are here today and gone tomorrow, you will know you took the time to Live Your Life.

Messages from the Moon. Life as I know it.

Some days life moves along smoothly and you are just in awe that all is right in your world. Some days life sucker punches you, and you think I just don't know how I am going to handle one more thing. But you do. You move along and pull yourself up by your bootstraps as my Mother would tell me. Pick yourself up girl and do what you always do, survive. I have survived may a thing in my life. But some day's I just wish for the serenity. I want to go about my day as if it is my last and I am making it the Best Day. Sometimes I can't, just one more worry comes along, and I feel as if I have hit a big boulder. But I just shove it aside the best that I can, and set the worries to the winds, and look forward to what can be, I can't dwell on my sadness, less it drag me down. Not that I expect that my life will always present me roses, but I can turn those lemons into sweet refreshing lemonade. Join me for a glass will you. I imagine most people don't take the time to enjoy the things that are pleasant, just dwell on all the bad. But I have to ask you this, WHY? I am grateful each and everyday, no matter what life presents to me. I can fight the good fight, I can pick which things to set aside, I can choose what battles to fight, I can do this. I tell myself I am stronger than what worries me. Maybe I cannot fix everything, nor do I try, but I look to the present and what it holds, and I am grateful for this life and all it shoves at me, or gives me. I Can Do This. Blessed Be. Moonbeam.

Messages from the Moon. Family Dynamics.

Good Morning Earth, Ah I am home. So greetings my Earthly friends. Hope this day finds you all well and happy. If not get up stretch your whole body, drink a big glass of water, and clear your mind to start a new day. Okay good now that you have done all of that, feel better, if not just go back to bed. So today I want to talk about something so important it has been rolling around in my head for days, and today it needs to travel along the internet and I would like all of you to share this today. Please. Family. Family are the most important people you have in your life. I don't care if you are on the outs with Uncle Harry or Aunt Sassy, because oh my they like to be so annoying. People are people and no one is perfect, by the way I am darn near perfect. I am only kidding about that. No what I am talking about is your family no matter how annoying, or awful they may be they are still your family. Crazy comes to mind with some of my relatives. I love each and everyone of them, I would never shut any of them from my life, even if I was mad about something. Believe me a few have shut me out, because I hurt some feelings with my big mouth, and of course I regret that, but things are fine now, and I love my family with all my heart. I wouldn't be who I am if I didn't have them. The children of the family dynamics are the best part of being a family. They are fun, full of life and silly at times, and that is the best part of being in a family. Let the kids be silly, and laugh with them when they are. I love the little ones in my family, they are so full of energy, and boy are they smart as well, and they see things so differently. It's refreshing to see the world through those eyes. If you haven't seen or spoke to someone in your family in awhile, What are you Waiting For? Get up off your behind and make a call, or plan an outing, do something about it. Mend a fence or two, whatever it takes, be humble, be the bigger person, just do it. Family are the most important people in your LIFE. Celebrate your family, they are worth it. To my Family, I Love each and everyone one of YOU. You are all unique in your own way, and very special. You are what makes my world rotate, and for good or bad your stuck with me, and I you. Hugs Moonbeam.
