LIFE HAPPENS (IT REALLY DOES AND YOU HAVE TO ROLL WITH IT)

 For a moment, let us consider, look at, contemplate all that has come before; the work, the intention, the love, the sacrifice, yes even the challenges and the mistakes that guided our journey to this very place.  It is not finished by any means, there are many years left (we hope) before it will be completed and these years may be, will be, the most Beautiful of all.

Trust the flow of life and the goodness of Spirit. Can you begin to trust and expect the best from any situation?  Write a new chapter in your life with a happy ending.  What do you value, what is your purpose, what do you consider home to be? What is your renewed vision for this world? What dream awaits to be discovered and fulfilled?

Keep going, don't stop.  You are on the right path. Like pioneers on the trail we will learn to live by our own lights and the stars of heaven, for that is all we need. 

These are some of my journal entries from the past few days.  I have wanted to sit down to write for days, but life happens and this week, Steve fell in the Denver airport at 4:00AM and was taken by emergency squad to the hospital.  It has been a sometimes difficult, but often amazing journey through these past few days.  

I am so grateful that his fall only broke his knee.  He didn't have a stroke, he doesn't have something unfixable, he slipped on some water at the baggage check and our trip to Pennsylvania was cancelled, at least for awhile. We spent the day in the hospital because his potassium and sodium levels were low, and hoped to have surgery the next day.  

That didn't happen and so we had a somewhat frustrating day following with communication being scarce with the orthopedic surgeons and not getting a walker to go home for three hours. We didn't leave the hospital until 5:30PM.  We stayed with Karrah and went home the following day for an appointment.  I am so grateful for Karrah and Marc's willingness to help us and let us stay there. 

I am grateful also that the Universe worked out the perfect surgeon, Dr. Howarth, and we got in early for appointment, early for surgery, and the surgery wasn't as bad as we first thought it would be! So many ways things worked out.  Feels like the hand of God.  

And when things like this that are important to me and mine work out this way without expressly asking for miracles, well, I believe that somehow this mess of a federal government and the people in charge, that the God of all Creation can manage it too with all of us praying for love and compassion to win out.  

I have decided to ask for blessings on our president and the current political situation.  I also want to find a way to help bring about the worldview that I want.  One based on equality, love, compassion, gratitude, and joy.  I refuse to listen to media reports that the whole world is ending or that this is horrible and it can't be stopped.  It's not true or real.  Right now there are people, entities, organizations moving to balance what is trying to happen. I want to do my part too.  I am looking for ways to help.  Keep Calm and Continue to Reach Out in LOVE and COMPASSION.
