Meditation

When I am busy, I think it is indulgent for me to take the time in the morning to do my usual meditation. Sometimes I do Reiki, sometimes I read cards, sometimes I just pray, sometimes I listen to a meditation and sometimes I just sit there putzing around with my crystals and candles rearranging and tidying.

This play I am working on is very challenging. I rarely really give a full glimpse of myself and my faith and beliefs to anyone to any degree. Even to those who know me well. I prefer to let others feel good, not really scaring them with the depth of my feelings, I learned a long time ago that feeling things as deeply as I do is frightening to others. Particularly that uncomfortable stuff. Particularly if you say it out loud.

So putting myself on the line this way is a bit stressful. Anytime you open yourself up to criticism you need to be careful to keep perspective. As a wise friend once said, "you can sit there and do nothing or you can open yourself to the chance you'll be criticized". Ahhh, very true. I choose the latter.

I have found that the only way to really stay sane and rational through the process is to MAKE myself stay with my practice. When I find myself straying, I notice that right away I get swept up in the agendas of others and begin feeling persecuted and worse, second guessing myself.

Today I did a bit of everything. Prayed, tidied, read my cards, lit my candles, prayed some more.

It was a good day. No matter what. No matter who. No matter why.

Even though the week was just downright silly.

I do have a new theory however, as to why there were a bunch of men folk in my world just being downright ridiculous and over-reactive.

Red Full Moon....Duh!

Too much yin to threaten their yang.

Ha ha....back to woo woo......anyway...

Happy Easter! Remember to take a quiet moment and think about what this day is really all about....Hallelujah! Imagine.....

Prior to this day there was no hope. Think of how this day felt to those who had no hope and then received the greatest hope of all.....eternity. Life everlasting.....imagine!

Wow. And we thought it was about what dress to wear.....or bunnies.

Peace be with you.
