Sometimes things.... life don’t quite go the way we planned. And sometimes, during that chaotic interlude, we can have our world turned upside down and inside out even if we feel we are spiritually attuned. Yes, that is right, perfection in all things can take time so don’t beat yourself up. (smile) This time of year especially can push all those buttons and momentarily have us spiralling down that rabbit hole of doubt. Just a while ago I encountered something that rocked my world. Seems this year for me has been related to integrity and honor or should I say the lack of it in many humans and light workers at the moment. So when it hit me, I felt like someone had punched me in the stomach and I was spiritually winded. I kept hearing spirit saying over and over to me, this is just a glitch, let it go... you are blessed, you are blessed. That afternoon I opened an email from Caroline Kimsey, the leader of a wonderful virtual healing group I belong to who sent us all the story of the snow globe which I am sharing with you today. She wrote “I was thinking that each of our lives is rather like being in a snow globe. In the middle is us and we fill our "globe" with the people and animals we love, then add layers of other things we enjoy having around us ... imprinting each snow flake in our globe with the energy that makes us happy, safe and generally at peace. But sometimes at the bottom of the globe are old snowflakes imprinted with things that no longer fit or serve our lives that we have taken on from others or perhaps misunderstood when we were younger and made a part of our inner world. These still lie under the surface while we carry on making our new memories and joy and then all of a sudden something or someone comes and shakes it all up. When our globe is really shaken (which is exactly what it feels like to me when I get discombobulated by an unexpected happening). The things buried deep beneath the surface are stirred up and we feel unable to centre for a while until we ground and breath and take stock of "What just happened". But remember the snowflakes in the air are full of the things that are your truth now.... are what you want in your life that you have made for yourself. I think the best thing about having your personal snow globe shaken up is discovering what does need to be let go off and what you are still holding on to and not only gaining your own equilibrium more quickly, but getting to a stage where you can stand steady in the middle of your world without being shaken up yourself and possible calm others too. I saw someone very dear to me who was in most ways having a very positive and good events happening in her life. But one thing came along which shook up her personal globe and she could not see the other lovely things around her. She could only focus on the perceived negative one, almost in a way shaking the debris in her own world and not allowing herself to centre and see things more clearly. We can all do this at times, but if we really want to love ourselves and others we need to try not to, or at least let ourselves settle as quickly as possible. If we even hold on to one thing that over stimulates our nervous system we cannot have calm in our inner or outer world”. I always share, that spirit will send us a message... a communication when we need it. That day spirit sent me the vibrational words of Caroline Kimsey, in such divine timing. In this next short while, when we get busy for the celebrations ahead, take a moment to sit in stillness... reconnect to the inner YOU vibration, and if others around you shake up your snow globe... take some beautiful cleansing breathes and remind yourself how far you have come in your life..... why you chose what you do.... in life....... with your family & friends and in your Universe. Then exhale knowing all this too shall pass and all will be well. Sometimes when we are in awareness, the divine enters into our soul, so listen and be heart centred always. Be in joy and gratitude of the way they make sure we get the answers we need WHEN we need them. Vibrational Blessings Debbie For any of you that are still feeling the “drag” of energy since the Las Vegas shooting, please can I invite you to do these three vibrational things to boost your energy and the energy of those around you.
At this moment in time our world is yet again transitioning – changing up the energy. Testing us if you like! And yes, the tests will continue, it’s called LIFE. Whenever you are wondering what comes next, take a moment to step into your energy, the beautiful vibration that placed you here right in this moment, reading this blog. You are part of the change, within yourself and your world. This moment was pre-determined when you wrote your contract of what you would do and be in this current life. Do you have a choice? Yes, of course you do, but do you want to be in an awakened state or a sleeper? I know which one I would choose and have chosen to be. Vibrational Blessings, Debbie When life throws us a curve ball or two, it can affect our vibration in so many ways. This week’s reading offered a resounding message from Spirit - Keep Calm and Carry On. And for those of you who know that particular saying and the things that are happening in our world at the moment, should find it a very apt mantra to keep saying over and over again. In our humanness, and yes that is a big part of who we are, our spiritual essence struggles, with everything .......the good, the bad and the ugly. But the disappointments, some may call frustrations, can really soak into our soul and try to break us down. I personally have been going through a skirmish, and like many of you conclude that maybe it was placed before me as a reminder that life is full of imperfections and bumps along the way. Maybe this is another test of my faith, my belief and honoring the energy frequency that I work and live in on a daily basis? We usually have more questions than answers, but this is when we need to have our heart open to hearing, seeing and sensing the answers. When we receive messages from our angelic guides and helpers, which we do get all the time, it is being receptive and sensitive and listening to what our heart is telling us. My recent experience happened when I was out walking a couple of days ago. I was in deep contemplation about things happening in my life and asking spirit to help enlighten me to get some direction or at least to understand what was happening and if it was coming to an end sometime sooner rather than later . I was mulling over possibilities in my mind, as we do in our humanness. I am a true believer that out of something bad always comes something good. And sometimes we need to go through this to embrace this aspect more. So what was I missing? There had to be something I was missing in this chaotic scenario. Maybe it needed to occur based on the relationship of cause and effect. All the time, like all of us, I was waiting for a sign.... confirmation or just something to help me keep focused. You know what I mean... should I keep going or change direction, or maybe give up on this latest adventure. As a child I was told that everything comes to those who wait, and although my predicament wasn’t life threatening, it was extremely frustrating, consuming my energy beyond redemption because my human energy had stepped into it. I continued walking along enjoying the day, in deep meditative connection with Mother Nature. I needed this time, to keep myself centred not letting this overwhelming feeling in my gut control my vibrational frequency. And there it was on the pathway, right in front of me... a grey & black feather. I knew it was for me because I had walked this same part of the path less than an hour earlier and it was there. So I picked it up and thanked spirit for giving me this beautiful and significant sign that I was being protected by my angels. This feather was a sign bringing forth spiritual wisdom and peace within, letting me know that a message will be sent with the answer to the question you have asked. Thank you, thank you, thank you I cried from within. But spirit wanted me to really know that they were there for me because holding my feather as I walked, a tiny black butterfly flew up and almost landed on my nose. So I knew there was going to be a shift in power relating to what I had been asking. When I gave thanks, I could feel tears filling my eyes. I felt a peace resonating within my heart, and I knew that even though at this exact moment I couldn’t see the wood for the trees, a positive change would be occurring soon. I slept more peacefully that night and awoke the next morning to the wind creating angelic music through the venting in my condo. Not a sound had I heard like it ever before in the three years living there. As I listened, again this overwhelming feeling of tranquility filled my soul frequency, my vibration felt like it could let go of the thoughts, the questions, the concerns because spirit now had this in hand and were working on it. Would the shift take place relating to what I was asking? I truly didn’t know, but within my heart chakra was a sense of calmness, stillness had filled my whole spiritual and physical body. In my serenity there was once again stillness and tranquility knowing that this was in the hands of the divine Universal force we call God...... Jesus..... Buddha..... Allah. Whatever name you pray or meditate to doesn’t matter, because our prayers are always answered. We just have to take the time to listen and keep believing. Vibrational Blessings, Debbie Yesterday I was walking with a group around the Labyrinth in Leamington. Being in the moment I realized that I could explore that time and just let my vibrational energy flow freely, without restrictions. Amid the pulling out weeds, which I will share with you in a later blog, I came across a little twig. It was just sitting there on top of the boxwood hedge. As I was the last one on the walk I wondered if the others that had walked ahead of me had seen it, or whether it had just appeared for me, right then. I picked it up, because there was a reason, even if it was not known to me. Drifting back into my thoughts, I let the twig turn gently in my fingers allowing me to see it from all angles without any agenda or reason. That’s what I call being in the Now Intention and boy is it enlightening. This little sprig of wood was at some point in its existence part of a bigger tree, that would have stood in strength reaching its branches out to the Universe. And below, it would have been attached by its roots that went deep down into mother earth. Connecting us to both Heaven & Earth with branches and roots stretched out. As above, so below. Then in a moment this little twig would have broken away, so I could find it, and pick it up and spend time in contemplation. What a gift I thought. Just for me. As my walk came to an end, I realized I no longer had the little twig in my hand. My thought was that during my weed pulling the little twig had yet again continued on its journey and our time together was at an end. Leaving those thoughts behind I ventured through my day feeling very blessed. It wasn’t until I went to bed last night that I felt something on the bed.... yes, it was my little twig, who had somehow come home with me. How, I have no idea, truly I don’t because I didn’t have any pockets in my clothing. So whether it was divine intervention or just a fluke it doesn’t matter. Was my little twig a gift from heaven with the purpose of writing this blog? Or just because it wanted to remind me that trees are never limited. They are in balance and harmony with nature. The branches are always extending out reaching upwards seeking the light & nourishment. The branches will shelter & protect us. A tree stands strong, ever growing, ever changing. After all, life is dependent on our own self awareness. Expanding and evolving as and when we are ready. Our vibrational essence knows that there is ALWAYS another way if something doesn’t work out for us, we just have to adapt and transform accordingly being OPEN to receive. Vibrational Blessings, Debbie Late one evening I was reflecting on my day and if I had been vibrationally in sync with everything I had done. Was I on the right track with my work in that moment? I have to share, this is not a question I ask myself on a regular basis, so I considered that as it had come into my mind, perhaps there was something that shifted in me in that moment. I sat for a few minutes to reflect upon my perception of that day and what it meant to me and why was I questioning it? I try to share with everyone, that when we get thoughts like this to tap into it in the “now” moment. Maybe I needed to be aware of something that spirit were trying to share, but I was too busy to acknowledge it. Life can be demanding, we get engaged in it, and so we should. So for me, I just sat for an instant to contemplate. I knew I felt good about what I had achieved, so that is where I put my thoughts to rest. It was then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a tiny piece of paper floating down to the floor, just a few feet from my desk. I bent down in curiosity and picked it up. The message was from a fortune cookie I must have saved. It said “others see you as a wise person”. So, there in a nano instant, spirit had sent me a clear message. If anyone has ever been in my office and seen my desk you will know that it is a place where all positive pieces of paper are housed, abandoned if you like. So when I am working at my laptop, when I look out at the wall I am seeing images of positive vibrations staring back at me. But how did it float up above me, across the room behind my chair? I concluded this could have only been sent from heaven, so in my acceptance of receiving the message I thanked spirit for reminding me that I am on track. Next time you start to wonder about yourself, your perception of you, just step back and wait, because spirit will send you your own special message. Vibrational Blessings Debbie A. Anderson A man was exploring caves by the seashore. In one of the caves he found a canvas bag with a bunch of hardened clay vessels. It was like someone had rolled balls of clay and left them out in the sun to bake. They didn't look like much, but they intrigued the man, so he took the bag out of the cave with him. As he strolled along the beach, he would throw the clay balls one at a time out into the ocean as far as he could. He thought little about it, until he dropped one of the clay balls and it cracked open on a rock. Inside was a beautiful, precious stone! Excited, the man started breaking open the remaining clay vessels. Each contained a similar treasure. He found thousands of dollars worth of jewels in the 20 or so clay balls he had left. Then it struck him. He had been on the beach a long time. He had thrown maybe 50 or 60 of the clay balls with their hidden treasure into the ocean waves. Instead of thousands of dollars in treasure, he could have taken home tens of thousands, but he had just thrown it away! It's like that with people. We look at someone, maybe even ourselves, and we see the external clay vessel. It doesn't look like much from the outside. It isn't always beautiful or sparkling, so we discount it. We see that person as less important than someone more beautiful or stylish or well known or wealthy, we have not taken the time to find the treasure hidden inside that person. There is a treasure in each one of us. If we take the time to get to know that person, then the clay begins to peel away and the brilliant gem begins to shine forth. May we not come to the end of our lives and find out that we have thrown away a fortune in friendships because the gems were hidden in bits of clay. Author Unknown Now go out there and be a vibrational treasure, the way the Universe intended you to be!! Vibrational Blessings & Sharings, Debbie A. Anderson Believing in yourself is paramount if you ever want to succeed in life. It is about self-motivation & overcoming your fears to make your dream become a reality. The first step is having the ability to grasp the notion that you are capable of doing amazing things when you believe in yourself. Each of us have unlimited potential to do something great but ONLY when you are willing to take the risks and work the plan of action you set out for yourself. Your mind is owned and operated by YOU, so don’t allow the trolls and “neigh sayers” to get in your head, because when you do, you are finished. Don’t allow yourself to get the life blood sucked out of you by trying to live up to the expectations of others. Always surround yourself with people who believe in you and what you are doing. Self-doubt is like an incurable disease that gets into your system if you don’t stay focused and on course. It is said that faith can move mountains, so never doubt your own power, because you are capable of achieving anything if you are motivated and set your mind, body and soul to it. Being negative is very easy if you buy into it. The half empty glass concept is the easy way out, because if you look at it from another perspective, you always have the ability to refill the glass – if you want to! When you stop comparing yourself to others and live up to your own expectations you are navigating in the right direction of being successful. When we step into our vibration and believe in our “self”, because in reality it is already a part of us, the transition is of ease and grace.... Finally remember to always live up to your OWN expectations because it is YOU and only you who counts. As Zig Ziglar said “Put all excuses aside and remember this: YOU are capable”. Vibrational Blessings, Debbie A. Anderson There is much in life that we don’t have answers for and yet we forge ahead hoping to find our way. We trust in a force, be it God or our higher self, and sometimes get to find the knowledge that will guide us. Now and then, without even realizing, our soul gives us what we need. Our friends, loved ones, family – whatever we hold dear to us, moves us to the point of hope. We can only move forward. Our past is behind us. Our future, without knowing its path, lies ahead. Some tread tenderly, others rough ride the road and hope it will in return bring them to their goal. Our purpose. Our focus. Whatever that is, we seem to hold it dear to our heart. Should we fail? Will we succeed? Do we know what lies at the end of the journey? Is it fear or hope that makes us who we are? If there is a God or universal force, does it care either way? Can we know that? The questions outweigh the answers. And should we actually find the answers, do we know for sure that they are correct for us? Life, is for living..... but do we know if we are living our life as it should be lived? There is no jury to decide. There is no paper, certificate at the end of the road saying we have passed with honours. Only our soul knows for sure. But will our memory, like footprints in the sand, be erased when we move on to the next life? Or will the imprint still be there deep within us.................. Ultimately, this is YOUR life and the way you lead it is up to YOU... no pressure. My hope is that whatever you do, you just DO IT and do it vibrationally! Vibrational Blessings, Debbie A. Anderson The following is the philosophy of Charles Schulz, the creator of the 'Peanuts' comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just ponder on them. 1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world. 2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners. 3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America pageant. 4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize. 5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress. How did you do? The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But when the applause dies ........Awards tarnish ........ Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners. Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one: 1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school. 2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time. 3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile. 4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special. 5.Think of five people you enjoy spending time with. Easier? The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money ... or the most awards. They simply are the ones who care the most.... so keep tha close to your heart. Sadly, even after internet research I have not been able to find the author of this amazing philosophy.... but whomever wrote it, I want to share it with you.... to ponder on.... to allow your heart to be open and accept that we don’t have to have a wall or shelf full of accolades and honors to prove what a successful and loved person we are....... just look to your friends for that.... Vibrational Blessings, Debbie A. Anderson If I could grant one wish to you all, it would be to embrace the Vibrational Blessings that you get given every single day. Debbie A. Anderson Every day is Christmas when you have the kind of mind, That stores up all the goodness and the sweetness it can find When you don't need an occasion, to spread a bit of cheer, But just keep on a-giving, of yourself throughout the year. Every day is Christmas, with a gaily wrapped surprise, When you've learned to see the friendship in someone else's eyes. When you try a little harder, and complain a little less, Holding fast to all the fervor of the faith that you possess. Every day is Christmas, when you've found that you can be More concerned with words like 'you' and less with 'I' and 'me'. When it's fun to do a favor, and to lend a helping a hand, When being understood means less, than when you understand. Every day is Christmas, with a beauty deeply cast, When you find it doesn't matter, if you're first or if you're last When you can face your conscience, and be glad of who you are, Then every day is Christmas, for you'll have friends near and far. ~ Author Unknown |
