Good Morning

It rained yesterday.  A good rain.  The wash (dry river bed) that runs to the west of our property and though the vacant desert land, across the street, north of our home became a stream and then a river. Carrying sand, branches and bits of trash to a new location.

I love being the first human to walk on the newly carpeted sand, still damp from the flow of rain water. Has the feeling of coming home to a clean house, familiar yet infused with a new energy.  The feel of moist sand under my tennis shoes, the sound of near by birds mingling with distance traffic, the quality of light still shaded by a few clouds lingering from the storm, feeding my soul.  

Taking a seat at my turn around point, a slab of concrete illegally dumped decades ago and slowly being covered with grains of displaced sand.  Saying a prayer of gratitude, thank you for the rain, the sun, the sky, the birds and this day.  It is a good morning.

Health & Forgivness

Honoring a message received this morning.  

The corner alter in my living room contains two candles, one to disperse aromatherapy oil the other to send prayers.   A small prayer book with Ganesh on the cover (the elephant header Hindu God who removes obstacles) has a place next to the crystal prayer candle holder.  Mala (prayer) beads surround a small smiling Buddha with uplifted hands.

Most mornings I choose two cards and a stone to place on my alter.

The stone chosen today said "Health".

The Louise Hay Power Thought Card:

• Front: "My healing is already in process." 
• Back:  My willingness to forgive begins my healing process.  I allow the love from my own heart to wash through me, cleansing and healing every part of my body.  I know I am worth healing." 

The Virtues Card:

After several readings of the list of Practices of Forgiveness:  I am inviting in 

"I have the power to change for the better".  

I am worth healing!
