  If any of you readers have a special story, or comments you wish to share that will enrich, uplift and add something for our audience to ponder, please send it to my email that follows. Moving into 2015 with the abundantly rich energy that is being cultivated on our planet at this time requires our hearts to be fed. There is enough "food" for our often worrisome souls, what we are requesting is words or insights that will assist those finding or following this blog to consider the joyful experiences, aha moments, positive realizations, and any other word phrases that can be used to describe HOPE.  As all of us know, peaks are reached after walks in the valley and the ascending trail that winds and turns along the way.  It is in the set backs that we discover our true strength. 
  From my heart to yours, Vicky

The Gift

Posted by: vkwspirit / Category:

  In the stillness of the night my Heart can be heard. During the busyness of the day my Head reigns! I am grateful for the opportunity to observe the relationship between these two very important aspects of my human experience.
 My head has learned what it takes to keep life in some sense of order, while my heart stands ready to help me use the tenderness of compassion in all I experience. Maintaining that balance takes a lot of “paying attention.”
 During this holiday season, my head has decided to simply assist my heart with creating ways to enjoy my family, friends, and to genuinely appreciate the generosity of so many people. I have recently realized that my head has finally become my friend and not a constant critic. Whew, am I ever grateful for that major accomplishment!
 As I sit in the quietness of my home and prepare myself for a good night’s rest, I can hear my heart reminding me that Hope, Faith and unconditional love spring forth when my head tenderly and admiringly shows love and respect for my heart by simply listening.  What a tremendous gift!

Great Mystery

Posted by: vkwspirit / Category:

  Tis' the season for great mysteries. What to get Uncle Joe, how to handle the handmade sweater from Aunt Pearl that is 2 sizes too big, just to mention a few of the unknown mysteries of this time of year.  It seems most people no longer wait until the holidays to ask for something they truly desire; they just whip out the credit card and buy it there and then. While it is great to know people are able to buy what they want, when they want, it does put a crimp in the holiday shopping lists. I can remember when my kids were thrilled with new long underwear for Christmas, that certainly wouldn't fly now.
  I have never been much of a shopper, except at Christmas. The crowds never really bothered me during the holidays. I loved the festive decorations and familiar carols that filled the stores. I must admit this year I have waited longer to purchase gifts then ever in my life. 
  And so, the mystery of Christmas continues to pull me into this magical time of year when giving and receiving serve as reminders that life is, indeed, more joyful when kept in balance. It is not the dollar value of the gift, rather, the heart-felt intention by which it is given that provides the warmth. It is being remembered, even if it is a simple box of homemade goodies. 
  The great mystery of Christmas is really about keeping the true meaning of it in the forefront of our thoughts, words, and actions and to remember the amazing teachings of Jesus. Truly, he walked his talk, lived the words he spoke and he always found the best in everyone. Somehow he brought out the best in those that were otherwise labeled "misfits." The gift of of being truly seen for who we are is what opens our hearts and allows us to feel safe enough to truly venture into the Great Mystery of life! Whatever your faith may be, here's to a fabulous Holiday season.
