SHINE BRIGHTLY.


Showing gumption is part of the calling. Have you ever woken up and wondered how the day would go? I know I have; I had the intention of doing good, but I fell flat on my face. I bitched and moaned about the littlest things that came my way. I looked in the mirror and saw a mean-spirited person looking back at me. I try every day to be a good person, I try to influence people in a way that I want to be influenced. How does that sound? I think that with all the worldly knowledge we have in our brains, maybe somehow, we can take all good out of it and bring forth sunshine. 

 

Sunshine holds me steady in times of trouble. It holds the light beaming towards me in uncertain times. It shines a light on my mental stability and courage. Looking out the window I see rain, it is pouring down. I know it is good for the crops but why does the influx of rain have to happen when I am about to walk out the door? Easy solution, take a raincoat and prepare for the elements. Take an umbrella and look at it as a way of shining on the good things. This will not stop me from getting in my car and driving to my next location. Sound the horn and lift your spirits up, sound the horn again and invite hospitality into the forefront of your mind.  

 

The lonely man that sits next to you in his car might be having a day worst then you. Show sunshine to him by smiling, make his day. Create that positive influence that can bring forth a chain reaction. I am going to do that today as I brighten my mood. I will keep those dreams at the forefront of my mind. For when those thoughts drift back, I will say no. No to the ugly side of humanity, no to the unrealistic views that shadow me around. No to the uncertain times that catapults me to the realms of harm. Allowing those moments to make me who I am, we all have that in us. The times that make us uncertain of whom we are. The times that make us believe that others can outshine us, no more I say. 

 

I will hold that crystal and allow the manifestation to happen. I will allow the elements to shine, and I will remember tomorrow is another day forward with gumption. I will not pity myself when having a bad day, I have many elements to change and that will come in time. Now is the start of the foundations to make me stronger and you are welcome to come along with me, to outshine the rest of them. Come along and let’s set us up for an unforgettable journey of hope, dreams, manifestation and a new thought pattern. Strength comes in numbers and when you want that hand up, I will be waiting here.

Years mark the day

YEARS MARK THE DAY By Jacqui Ray We were celebrating another milestone with our marriage, another year passed with unrelinquished misery as my husband would say. I know he was joking but deep down were we still compatible? Most years we would forget our wedding anniversary or anything else that resembled a major point in our lives. People make out dates to be so important, I am not sure if this was a sticking point in our relationship. Did it really matter if we did not celebrate our wedding anniversary? Did it really matter if we did not wear our wedding rings? People get so caught up in the expectations of what others think. It is not what he does for me but how he does it. My husband may not jump for joy on certain days when I am wanting him too but that is how he is. Don’t change a person just because you want them changed, there has to be a need for change and direction to wonder how these factors affect a relationship. We bot...

Forgiving and forgetting.

Many times in your life there are people that hold a very special place in your heart. Cutting cords is something I have never thought about until I started my spiritual journey. Do you have a friend you have known all your life? Do you keep the friendship going because you have known them forever? You might grow apart and distance yourself, but that nagging feeling keeps you in that friendship circle.   Cutting cords is hard with blood relatives and friendships, but are they serving you? Is it time to relinquish the guilt and subservience of their friendship and know that the time has come to think about yourself first? Do you need them in your life? Start with that, think about what happiness they bring to you. Think about if they are there for you when you need someone to call on or are they just a fair-weather friend? Spiritualism has no bounds with the way we are when someone is hurting you. You may just be a shoulder for somebody to use and abuse yo...

Worldly possibilities

How many people wonder what life has in store for them? Are there certain destinies to behold or how do I put it, explanations in life that cannot be told? For I am one of those people that judged and belittled what was not my belief. Somehow that made sense to me and spiritual reclusiveness was part of the package for me. My life consisted of having a wonderful upbringing, living in the suburbs of Melbourne with my family and enjoying the simple things in life. I was not a religious person nor was my family. Pretty much Atheism was what we all believed in. I did attend an Anglican school for my education but was not aware of how religion would play a part in the school curriculum. During Religious Education, I remember being perplexed and bored. I would not listen and hardly remember anything that my teacher taught me.      If I had been brought up in a different family with religious beliefs, then maybe there would be a different outcome. Wh...
