A Full Moon Reflection: On Mistakes and Miracles...

A Full Moon Reflection:On Mistakes and Miracles...

Beautiful People
Please Clear Your Minds and Open Your Hearts to Truth.

Now Breathe and Exhale Deeply Ten Times.

So many of us judge others without acknowledging our own failures or mistakes. 

I do not deny that I have made mistakes because there is a part of me that knows that All of us have been Sinners.  

Through our thoughts, wishes and actions or our greed, envy and hate....

Many of us have at some point been guilty of murder, thieves or even of offering ourselves for sale.

I know I have made many mistakes through my lack of vision and understanding,  as well as society's conditioning and dangerous programming.  

Poor Judgment has served to teach me valuable lessons of loss and helped me learn to retrace my steps back to Divine Grace through Integrity.  

And Many Miracles have come through Forgiveness.

Forgiveness stood by my side and taught me to Love Myself through it all.  Forgiveness has also taught me to Love and Forgive Others.

The Truth Is...

I have learned that I Am Not My Mistakes. Nor Are You Your Mistakes!

It is time for many of us to find Our Way Home to Compassion, Forgiveness, Kindness and Mercy. 

We Are the Stardust of Good Potential that Lives In Our Hearts waiting always to be Used More. 
As We Grow Into a New Loving Consciousness with Integrity...

Miracles of Love and Joy Will Become Our Pathways of Hope and Possibility!

Always, Melony

A Reflection on Bill Cosby

A Reflection on Bill Cosby 

Beautiful People, 

And as I watch and listen to so many of us Celebrate the Demise of Bill Cosby, I Am Saddened.  His actions of course Were Wrong.

Quiet as it's kept, so many men in power did the same thing. As a Society We Accepted It.  

Now so many are focusing on his sickness for it is a Sickness that Has Long Flourished in many forms throughout the United States and other parts of the World throughout Time. 

I have in my life learned to forgive horrible things that happened to me at a young age and to know that no matter what happens, we all get to heal, grow and prosper. 

In this Time of Duality...
I pray that we all remember our frailty, our failures and mistakes.

And in doing so, Remember the generous Dr. Bill Cosby who has helped so many achieve their goals and contributed financially when few others would.  

This Is My Hope and My Prayer!

 And So It Is With Love!

Always, Melony

Nurture the Dream!

Nurture the Dream!

Beautiful People, 

In today's society, even those we Love, we judge! We want them to dress, walk, and talk in a way that makes us feel superior. 

We have been conditioned to manipulate others, to fight and to use words that harm even when we talk of Peace.

Good Communication requires a willingness to stop and listen. 

Take a moment to clear the pathway of your heart.  

Breathe Deeply.  Open your heart. Listen beyond judgment. 

Breathe In Gratitude for every conversation of Hope. 

Please Re-member, Our True Purpose is to use our gifts to inspire, support and empower others so that we all blossom in Love. 

Today Water Your Human Garden of Hope with Love. 

Together Let Us Nurture the Dream of Freedom and an Equitable Loving Peace.

Always, Melony

Thank You for All Your Likes and  Shares, Encouraging Words, Support and Beautiful Hearts!  

I Appreciate You!

Behold Many Miracles!

Behold Many Miracles!

Beautiful People, 

Please Still Your Mind.  Now take a Moment to Breathe and Exhale Deeply Six Times!

If you are brave enough to plant a garden within your heart; then you must make the commitment to nurture it with compassion, integrity and respect for Truth throughout all the seasons of your life.

In the garden of your lives, the sun will shine always through your smiles but there may be winters of doubt and loneliness.

The many clouds and rainstorms will be your tears of disappointment, and dismay mixed with the joy of knowing Love.

As children and creative ideas are born, the air will bring you oxygen, new purpose, and whispers of understanding.

Spring buds and blossoming trees will be filled with your humility, as you celebrate Being Born Again...

There will be joyful summers of compassion as your willingness to forgive allows for deep healing.

Time and time again you will harvest the fruit of Love and acquire a propensity of Faith that nurtures you and many others.

And throughout Eternity with Divine Grace, you will continue to plant new seeds of Hope.

These Are the Miracles to Behold in a Life of Love!

Wake Up! Sing. Dance. Live. Love.

You have heard the song of Love sung by babies and toddlers, poets and mystics. 

You have heard the echo of Love and felt it tingling in your heart as it traveled through the wind whistling and summoned flowers and trees to dance. 

Divine Spirit has whispered and shouted to you from every mountain of your difficulties to the depths of every ocean of your despair.

Please Re-Member to Honor the Earth/Heart! 

Beautiful People...

Please Re-Member to Honor the Earth/Heart! 

The breath of Love is the oxygen in the air we breathe that also helps the flowers, plants, and trees grow; and birds sing. 

Love swims through every ocean, river and lake that helps sustain us as the ripples and waves sing the Love Song of the UniVerse. 

Harmony teaches us to live and sing the Loving Song with compassion,  hope, integrity, joy and peace in our hearts! 

Being in Harmony means that we care for respect and support all sentient beings of the Creator's Heart.  

Breathe and Exhale Deeply Ten Times. 

In Love with Hope and Gratitude! 
Out Love with Hope and Gratitude!  

In Love with Hope and Gratitude. 
Out Love with Hope and Gratitude.... 

Today Try to Be Positive, Optimistic and Determined to Live with Compassion, Good Purpose, Hope, Gratitude and Love!

Spirit Ramblings...

Spirit Ramblings...

My heart dreams often…
looking into the eyes of strangers 
seeing Love, feeling Love.

For they are not strange to me.

Often it is a brother or sister, maybe even a mother, a father or a dear friend from a past life.

I wonder do they know me too or are my soul ramblings vivid only to myself?

My thoughts are so intense, viewing yesterdays and tomorrows as if they are today.

The concept of time escapes me.

But come let us travel around the galaxy and share joy.  Our hearts know no limitations for we can be One with the Divine through Love.

‘And what is Love?’  You ask.

Love is a rainbow or a smile glistening like a star at night.

Love is a storm readjusting & cleansing the Earth-Heartso that plants will grow and we may feel even the sizzle of an ant and know bliss.

Love is opening your heart and feeling the wisdom of an oak tree or the magical transformation of a caterpillar to a butterfly.

Love is walking along the shore; your feet gently nestled in the sand with ocean water caressing your legs and the smell of a salt breeze kissing your face as you watch the sun set or the moon rise, and ponder swimming with the dolphins.

Love is believing that ALL people are gifts from the Divine and knowing that each of us is related and interconnected with every other sentient being.

Love is everything, everywhere.

Love is co-creating with the Divine.

‘How do we co-create?’  You ask.

Imagine that when your fingers tingle for no apparent reason that That is the Divine teaching you, helping you to understand what it is like
when a flower blooms.

Or perhaps when you experience unexplainable tears of joy, your heart is opening, expanding like a womb when a baby is being born.

And so on some level, you too understand the bliss of motherhood.

 You smile.  That Is Good.

My Spirit Ramblings have often brought me much laughter.

Laughter can release fear and helps us understand one another.

Laughter is for me a desire for Grace.  A desire to reconnect with other souls.

My heart feels many thoughts around me.

Some are asking…
‘How can we co-create the bliss of Love?  It is not possible.’  You say.

 Here Is a Question for You…
If it is possible to feel my heart beat
“boom ba ba ba boom ba boom ba ba ba boom"...

 Is it because you remember Love
or is it the fear that one you hold dear
will leave again?

Do not answer, but muse in your heart. Re-Member, it is time to Forgive. Time Only to Love.

 Now come, let us travel together on our Soul Journey Back to the Divine.

Always, Melony

Beyond Ego and Misery! #Love

Beyond Ego and Misery! #Love

Beautiful People,

When Ego did not trust the Creator's Love, he found himself lost in perpetual storms of wrong words, violent actions, disappointment and fear.
  
It seemed like for eons,  Ego forbade the Heart from experiencing JOY and joined with Misery to create dis-order and hate throughout the World. 

Some humans enslaved others who looked differently.  They stole the precious resources and treasured legacies, and fought religious wars to maintain control.  

For a time it appeared that this was to become the Sad Destiny of Earth. 

And the Great Mother Cried.  Her tears moved hearts of a few who then felt the undercurrent of the Creator's Love.  

And the few Awakened from the horrible nightmare created by Ego and Misery.

They began to Breathe Deeply and see Beauty in the Stars, in the Moon and Sun. 

They began to marvel at the birds song, the lives of animals and fish, and the rhythm of the winds and oceans.  
They learned the history of Earth-Heart  through the rocks and stones.  

They discovered the oxygen of Love and studied the wisdom of trees.  Plant life offered food and healing. 

With Each Breathe they took in Love,  they grew braver, and many more re-membered the Great Mother and Awakened in Love.  

YOU are one of the many born to Honor the Creator and Rise in understanding and compassion through the Great Mother. 

 Breathe Deeply 10 Times.  Breathe In Truth. Know there is Only Love.  Exhale the Nightmare Created by Ego and Misery.  

Now that YOU Have Awakened,  allow Divine Grace to lead your Heart.  

Listen to song of your Soul. It is the Creator's Song of Love. 

Again, Ten Times Breathe In Love.  Exhale Love.  

There Is No Turning Back. 

The Only Way to Heal and Live and Prosper on EarthHeart is to Stay Awake and Trust Only Love!

Always,  Melony
