THANKFUL THURSDAY

HAPPY THANKSGIVING Y’ALL

WELL THIS HAS BEEN A LONG JOURNEY IT SEEMS GETTING TO THIS DAY OF GIVING THANKS…..TRUELY THIS YEAR HAS A VERY DIFFERENT VIBE. MANY LIVES HAVE BEEN LOST, FAMILIES SUFFERING FROM DEATH …FROM COVID OR LOSS OF BUSINESS OR BANKRUPTCY. THE WORLD WE ONCE TOOK FOR GRANTED IS GONE………

I SIT HERE THIS THANKSGIVING EVE PONDERING ON THE SOULS JOURNEY….. ALL OF US UNIQUELY AND INDIVIDUALLLY HERE FOR A PURPOSE AT THIS SPECIFIC TIME AND SPACE. HAVE YOU NOTICED YOU ARE MORE PATIENT WITH YOURSELF AND OTHERS? HAVE YOU FELT ANXIOUS OR ANXIETY NOT KNOWING WHAT OR HOW THINGS WILL BE? HAVE YOU NOW LEARNED TO EBB AND FLOW LIKE THE CYCLES OF NATURE?

I CAN REMEMBER A TIME THAT THANKSGIVING GAVE ME SUCH STRESS AND ANXIETY. THE FOOD SHOPPING, THE WORK SCHEDULE, THE PREPARATION, THE EXHAUSTING TASKS OF DOING IT ALL PERFECT. I HONESTLY DON’T KNOW WHY I WAS SO OVERWHELMED DURING A TIME OF GATHERING AND GIVING THANKS. THEN I THINK OF THE SOULS JOURNEY AND LESSONS WE ALL ENDURE……LIKE LOOKING THROUGH A FROSTY WINDOW WE WIPED AWAY, OR PUTTING ON A PAIR OF READING GLASSES, WE SEE!!!! WE CAN BE THE OBSERVER OF OUR OWN EXPERIENCES AND IN THAT MOMENT OF GRACE OUR SOUL HAS EVOLVED TO A NEW LEVEL…..EVERYONES JOURNEY IS UNIQUE TO EACH SOUL… ALONG MY JOURNEY I HAVE HAD MANY EARTH ANGELS WHO GUIDED ME AT EXACTLY THE RIGHT TIME.

COVID HAS BEEN HERE TO TEACH ALL OF US….. WHO AM I? WHY AM I HERE? WHAT IS MY LIFE PURPOSE OR DHARMA? THIS THANKSGIVING EVE I AM LISTENING TO MEDITATION MUSIC, I DID THE FOOD SHOPPING, COOKED WITH A JOYFUL AND GRATEFUL HEART. I AM OBSERVING MYSELF WITH NEW EYES, FROM THE WINDOW OF MY SOUL. AS WE AWAKEN TO OUR TRUE SELVES OR SOUL ESSENCE LETS REMEMBER ITS THE JOURNEY, LOOK BACK TO REMIND OURSELVES HOW MUCH WE HAVE GROWN AND EVOLVED WITHOUT JUDGEMENT.

HONORING ONE ANOTHER…..THIS WEEK I HAD THE PLEASURE OF VISITING A GORGEOUS PLANTATION WITH MY FAMILY IN SOUTH CAROLINA, AS WE MARVELED AT THE GROUNDS AND MAGNIFICENT SPANISH MOSS TREES….. WE DECIDED TO TAKE A TOUR, ONE WOULD THINK THE TOUR OF THE BIG MANSION ON THE PLANTATION….. I WATCHED AS MY 30 SOMETHING CHILDREN CHOSE TO TOUR WHERE THE SLAVES LIVED. IT WAS A VERY MOVING EXPERIENCE AND WHAT I LEARNED THAT DAY WAS PROFOUND….WE CANT GO BACK AND CHANGE HISTORY OR OUR OWN LIFE EXPERIENCES, THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY, FOR IT HAS MADE US EVOLVE TO THE SOULS WE ARE TODAY….JUST AS WE CANT IGNORE THE HORRIFIC HISTORY OF OUR NATION, WE MUST DIGEST IT ALL, HONOR THE SOULS WHO LIVED THROUGH THOSE PERIODS OF HISTORY, MOVE FORWARD FEARLESSLY. GRATEFUL FOR OUR JOURNEY, WHILE HONORING THE SOULS OF OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS REGARDLESS OF THEIR COLOR, POLITICS OR GENDER IDENTITY.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING BEAUTIFUL SOULS……
