One Spirit Place

Preface Have you ever thought for more than a few moments about your life and the journey that led you to where you stand at this moment in time on planet Earth? Have you ever thought, “why me” or “why this” or “why now” while reviewing and analyzing your life and the twists and turns that brought you to where you now exist? We all know people who seem to “have it all” and others that nothing goes right in their lives; why is it that such polarities exist? What has happened in the lives of those people who are obviously unhappy, suffering from addictions, depression, financial hardships, or even committing acts of violence against themselves or others? Conversely, what about the opposite? Have you ever pondered what kind of life creates happiness, financial prosperity, balance, peace and joy? I was functioning on the assumption that “balance” meant juggling work, home, kids, spouse, friends and whatever the “crisis” of the day happened to be! “Peaceful” was the ten minutes by myself in the bathroom or the few minutes of reading a book before falling asleep from exhaustion. “Happy”, well, isn’t this it? My husband is a gem with a good job, my kids are sweet, and my home is lovely. So I was happy, peaceful and balanced, right? Wrong! Oh, I was “happy” in the sense of how society would view it, but I was struggling with a deeper frustration. I was looking for a sense of PURPOSE. I needed some understanding of why I came to Earth and what I want to accomplish while I am here. Why was I feeling like there was more to understand and learn than I was experiencing in the life I was living? I love my family and I am honored to be in their lives; my questions were not about them, they were about me. The question that loomed largest in my mind surrounded the unexplainable experiences that had been a part of my life for years….what was the message and meaning behind them? Those experiences led me to an understanding of life, death and rebirth that forever changed my view of this amazing journey we call life. This understanding has enabled me to experience the incredible power this knowledge holds; a power to create and call forth into our lives anything we desire. This knowledge and understanding forever changes who and what you think you are and the reasons for your existence on the planet. When we are born, we understand that we are part of Source God and that our true nature is love and joy. We remember that we came to the planet to create and experience. As our body grows, these memories begin to fade. We are influenced by our families, peers and society. This influence results in free will decisions that move us away from our Source God. If we continue to make decisions that move us away from our true self, our lives become increasingly difficult. We suffer from unhappiness, addictions, divorce, financial difficulties and in extreme situations, violence against the self or others. We don’t understand why our life is so hard or how to fix it. Our souls’ message of love, healing and joy is lost in the noise called life. Here is the good news: we can fix it and healing can begin now. We can learn to realign with our Source and remember that our true essence is love – love of self, love of soul and love of spirit. We can reacquaint ourselves with Spiritual Truths and Laws that enable us to move forward with an understanding that eliminates all fear and allows us to call forth the voice of our soul. We can remember that our Spiritual “family” is always ready to gently guide and assist us on this journey called life. Armed with this powerful knowledge and understanding, we can create whatever life we desire to live…..To be continued
