Safar 7 1436

This posting in coming on the heels of the Blessed Muharram ... we have been one week now looking for the good life ... with only positives . My newest training of Journalling has led me into the study of FOCUS , CENTERING and BALANCE . Let us hope that my writing may now demonstrate this attempt to be lighter , happier in the love of our Creator . Safar can be a month of awesome opportunities to cherish what we have , know and see around us . When we seek harmony around us , then we can feel HIS presence more ..even in the littlest JOYS . Let us open ourselves to these JOYS ... even sharing them with others as often as we can . Next week I travel off to Australia to see my little LOVES ...grandbabies . I may not blog for a while ... simply know that I will be trying my best to be LIGHTER, MORE JOYFUL and filled with more gratitude than ever before . See you all when I can . Lovingly written today ....thank you Allah !!!

Muharram 27 1436

Today is another day where we wake again ... feeling, seeing, hearing , breathing , open to manage this day the best way we can . How to remain balanced and light is so important a mantra ... this will be my mindfulness mantra for this week . As we become more and more mindful , we come to realize how much control we have in all we do and say and THINK !!!! Thank you for healing , growing wiser and seeking new ways of perceiving our days . To find a centering within myself ...is a grand experiment for me. That has been my adventure for a while now . I am truly grateful for the realization that I have needed to do this to create my own harmony . Journalling has helped me in the quest ... thanks for healing, growth , and security . Look for LOVE to centre you and the others you may meet daily.

Muharram 20 , 1436

New lessons keep coming daily as we live ... thru any crisis , we seem to "batten down the hatches" and go silent . My lesson for today is to keep the heart open then to learn whatever is needed to survive this crisis. Never forget to continue seeking the TRUTHS there...even while enduring the pain. The patience and growth that come from CRISES is only increased by the greatness of HIS mercy and LOVE!!! HE never leaves us alone to manage . Look for the silver lining in the cloud ... Look down and meet the generous souls who are looking up for answers . Share the LIGHT from your hearts whenever you can . Find the chaos of this world to be diminished by the FAITHFUL HEARTS we meet. Look around to experience small , ordinary events in daily life...the rustling leaves, the sweet snowflakes, the cardinal's song in winter, the charitable neighbour, the tasty recipe from an online source. LOOK AROUND , LOOK DOWN and REACH UP for your guideposts ! Never , ever stop asking for all you need each day ..nor stop being grateful for what was received each day .
