We have so many choices, so many noises and so many distractions. We actually have so many things going on in our minds, in our lives, and all around us in our world that it is a wonder that any of us can connect with the Divine within at all. And yet, we can! There are many benefits to our many choices and distractions and like wise there are many detriments to it as well.
    “In the olden days” it took so much longer to wash our clothes, to obtain our food, to cook our food, to get to a friend or family members house, etc. Now we have all the modern conveniences that free up our time so to speak. We can throw our clothes in the machine while we watch TV and check our email. We can go to the grocery store and pick out our food as if it miraculously is waiting for us to show up and buy it to throw it in a microwave. (I don’t use a microwave anymore!) We can jump in our car and get to a friend’s home in no time at all. So what do we do with all that extra time? Do we spend time with our loved ones? Do we pray and meditate? Do we remember to sing some Sacred Songs and connect with Creator?
    Due to the nature of The Crystal Garden, I encounter many people who are searching for something. Perhaps they are searching for themselves, their true spiritual nature. Perhaps they are searching for love, support and a sense of security. Perhaps they are searching for God/Great Spirit/Creator. And perhaps all those things are One. In that search, we really are the only ones accountable to find what we are looking for within our selves. Yes, sometimes we can look to another to be one who might point the way for just a moment, yet it is just for a moment because we are the only one who can decide which signs to read and interpret along the way. It is up to each one of us individually to make the choices.
    As we take the time to pray, to stop all the chatter and the distractions, to rest our bodies, our minds and our spirits, then perhaps we may be able to begin to receive clear guidance. We need to be quiet enough for periods at a time to listen to our small voice within. We need to be able to determine what is our own personal Sacred Point of View and honor ourselves for that view. We also need to be able to create and maintain our own Sacred Space.
    It is within our own Sacred Space that we create the environment to be in touch with who we truly are. The clearer we are with our personal truth, then the messages, the guidance, the support and abundance continue to flow like a cornucopia filled with the blessings of this great planet. We can make the choice to have Heaven on Earth. We can live our lives in a way that is Sacred. The place to start is to honor our own Sacredness and eventually all the rest will fall into place if we are steadfast and focused.
    Let us all remember to do a few simple things that will promote inner peace. A daily practice of five minutes of focusing on love and inner peace creates amazing benefits. Add to that an additional five minutes of prayers of gratitude sending blessings to the people, places and things for which we are grateful. Add to that an additional five minutes of allowing yourself to breathe and receive blessings. And Ta Da . . . Life is Beautiful!

Many Blessings to YOU!
