Surrender and Acceptance of Self.

Sadness is something we all go through, and we all learn from it and are deepened by its presence in our lives. While our own individual experiences of sadness carry with them unique lessons, the implications of what we learn are universal. For the World too is going through its own unique lessons as we grow through the experience.

The last thing most of us want to hear or think about when we are dealing with profound feelings of sadness is that deep learning can be found in this place.
The other thing we often would rather not hear is that the only way out of it is through it.

Sometimes being empathic means we do not always realise if the feelings of melancholy are ours or we are feeling the energies we link into.

I was feeling low of spirit way before my Dear Aunt passed away. I had already prepared a post in my drafts about Nature making us feel better, which I will post at a later date..   I had taken a walk on the Saturday taking snap shots for the post.. And went out again on Sunday to recharge my batteries again as I had felt much refreshed by walking in Nature ..

Yet not 5 minutes out of the car, I tripped and fell heavily meeting the concrete path from the car park with a crack so loud on my chin I thought I had broken my Jaw.  Luckily I only badly bruised my chin(Bruises: The little bumps in life. Self-punishment.)   and sprained my wrists.. ( Sprains: Anger and resistance. Not wanting to move in a certain direction in life). Which left my muscles feeling very stiff over the last few days, (Stiffness: Rigid, stiff thinking.) Life is showing me the ‘Signs’

Self analysis is also a painful business, and over the last few days I guess I have been reflecting upon the direction of my life. I embraced early retirement with so much gusto, and threw myself into the allotment, decorating, and knitting projects.. and yet I have still to find what fills that empty space..

I guess I am resisting being in my comfort zone of being ME…  

Sitting with our sadness takes the courage to believe that we can bear the pain and the faith that we will come out the other side. Sadness teachers us the ability to surrender and the acceptance of change go hand in hand.

I just need to change my thoughts and follow the above quote I guess I am still in the process of adjusting and the lessons are coming in thick and fast.

Thank you for reading Love and Blessings

Sue

Journey Within ~Poem

Vicar’s Water. A Sanctuary for wild life

Journey Within..

Come with me on a journey it starts inside my head

Create a place to dwell from all the Fear and dread

Close your eyes and behind them create a perfect vision

Build a garden full of beauty get ready for your transition

~

Sit upon the grass as sky lark sings above

Hold out your hand to feed the many cooing Doves

See the babbling stream as the young fawn drinks her fill

And listen to the Woodpecker’s distant woodland drill

~

Watch the tiny fishes as the light glistens from their scales

You’re now adrift in the ocean, as you watch the Humpback Whales

You listen to their song a lament as old as time

Each breath takes you deeper as your Spirit begins to climb

~

Now you are on a mountain its top all crisp and white

You fly among the Eagles suspended in effortless flight

Thermals take you higher as you travel within its ring

Higher yet you travel, more peace to feel and bring

~

Through the clouds you break into outer-space you speed

Looking back at a Blue Planet which provided all your needs

Weightless and suspended no longer feeling Form

You fly around the heavens exploring each star born.

~

Filled up now with knowledge no mortal Words could speak

You return back to your garden upon your grassy seat

A new sense of Peace surrounds you as you open up your eyes

You can return in an instant, just open up your mind.

 

 

We can travel anywhere we wish when we just close our eyes and allow our mind to relax in a meditation.. Breathe deep and create your perfect space…. The above poem I wrote last week as I recollected part of a meditation.. The view I have included is one taken on a regular walk we often take..Have a fabulous week.

Thank you for Reading

The Stream of Life~ Rowing Together.

My how time fly’s when you are having fun.. Autumn and October is here. One month gone since taking early retirement.. And hardly a day goes by without it being Full to brimming as I float along in the stream of Life.. Which led me to think of this nursery rhyme which I would often sing with my Granddaughter.

“Row,Row,Row, your boat gently down the stream,

Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Life is but a Dream.”

English Nursery Rhyme 

‘Life is but a Dream!’.. Life is certainly what you make it. So, we who try to work in the ‘Light’ as the power’s that be try to turn out our lights with warmongering and other evil doings.. Let us flip on our  light switches and row our own boats  in the flow of life, creating our own Dreams..  Merrily, Merrily as we go!..

My recent post Planting a Seed~ A Thought touched on how we manifest and how we need to reprogram ourselves to think differently about the world.  I was so pleased as I travelled around WP how many others are tapping into that ‘Thought Stream’ of projecting balance and harmony while we are being subject to more Fear Tactics…  Jack over at Jacks Jottings, also reminded me with his wonderful post entitled Consider, Consideration how despite our differences we all can and do get on well together I hope you go and read his amazing poem.

Then there is Barbara over at Me My Magnificent Self on her reposting of the Lunar Eclipse the last being on Sept 28th. Barbara wrote on her post 2014-2015 Lunar Eclipse Cycle… A Time to be Truly Balanced.

Quote:“ It is all going to be OK… humanity is moving on… we are going to be living in each moment, experiencing new potential and have no need to go back and compare our past or project ourself in a limited and probable future anymore.”

Do the birds worry where their next meal is coming from? Yet each morning they wake and Sing their greetings to the day… Living within the Now.  I too have been living within the Now.. Letting go, moving forward in the stream of where life takes me..  I  am now waking with lighter heart  filled with gratitude as my day is only as full as I wish to make it..

The choice is always ours.. So as we grab an oar and get ready to row let us all pull together in unison as we set sail down the river of enlightenment..

We are All One.. 

I hope to share later this week how full my days have been..

Sending you my Love and Blessings

War and Peace.

The world once more seems to whirl around war

I wonder why man is driven to wield such claws

That gouge out the hearts of many in sorrow

I pray for our future and our children’s tomorrows

~~

You would think by now Man would learn

Instead Nations join, sending missiles to burn

Crimson is the colour of all who bleed

No distinction made, as a mother’s heart pleads

~~

Who IS the terrorist with evil intent??

I ask as the hearts of many lament

We go around in circles War after War

‘War to find Peace!’, we all know the score

~~

War is contrived, planned and staged

War creates Power for the Dark one’s

DISENGAGE!

Can you not see the tunnel we are being led?

Wake up People, Don’t feed into Fear and Dread

Send out your Light, the Gift of your Hearts

Join in a Prayer, for You are where it starts

~~

Peace starts within, We ALL have to change

Unite together, your thoughts rearrange

Hold onto Tolerance, Compassion and Peace

Envision a World where fighting will cease

~~

I can’t change the minds full of evil and hate

I can only change my own before it’s too late

So Light a Candle with me this day

Place Love in your Hearts and Peace as we pray

© Sue Dreamwalker 2014 All rights reserved.

I am lighting a candle for Peace. I hope you may feel like doing the same..

I had to write a poem tonight to express my thoughts as the world leaders seem intent on more War. All I can do is change my own world and live in harmony and peace within my Now Moments.. I hope as we continue this Earth Journey together we can join together our thoughts and spread more Love and Peace through our world..

I know Love and Harmony of our Collective Consciousness will always Bring Light to extinguish the Dark.. Keep sending out your Ripples of Light..

Blessings for a Peace where ever you are

Quote:

“Peace Cannot be Kept by force, It can only be achieved by understanding”

Albert Einstein

Planting a Seed.. A Thought!

William Blake,Said

“that everything that now exists was once imagined,”

Wayne Dyer said.

“So, if you want something to exist, you must first be able to imagine it.”

Each of us have a chance of planting new seeds.. Yet we so often never have the courage to pick them out of our minds to plant them with intention into our reality… Those who do have the courage may see how from their tentative thoughts ideas grew beyond their wildest dreams… I bet Alexander Graham Bell never in his wildest dreams would have thought how his invention would now be in everyone’s pocket!. 

But we need to have the courage to take those first steps and plant them..

Like all seeds they take time to germinate, so too with our ideas we often wonder why our wishes are not fulfilled.. All too often we sabotage them before they even begin to grow roots. How?, because we doubt our own capabilities and we say we are far from worthy of success. Telling ourselves we are never lucky.. and its bound to fail.. So we poison the very idea, so the seed withers even before it gets a chance to grow..

Our subconscious mind is an incredible tool, it possess the power to manifest from our thoughts to bring them  into our physical reality. You only have to take a look around the room you are now in, and see that every thing in it was once someone’s thought, even the paint upon the walls… An idea born, brought into reality from that first seed of an idea..

I have just finished a book the second time in reading it, I think this time its message really hit home. As I see how I have sabotaged many such seeds in the past.  The Book is called Wishes Fulfilled By Wayne Dyer, listen to his talk HERE upon the subject of Wishes Fulfilled.

‘Thoughts become things when you Feel them’ says Wayne Dyer, In the past I have often experienced frustration, Anger, worry, stress. These I have amplified with my ‘Feelings’ as the frustration of helplessness, or horror at how brutal we can be to one another have overshadowed my thoughts.. 

We need to reprogrammed ourselves to think differently about ourselves and the World..

Seeds are sown, every day within our minds.. What sort of seeds are you sowing within your own mind? Which type of thoughts are you cultivating?

My last simple post World Peace! Just Imagine  got reblogged 6 times!. I got more traffic today than for a long while..  People Do want Peace, and yet how many of us are being manipulated into getting caught up in Conflict?  We are part of it every time we read a Newspaper, every time we watch the Media News, Every time we join in Gossip, every time we Judge another. Every time we argue, even with ourselves, We are creating yet more Conflict , more Negative Energy in the World.

Our very thoughts Create…

Let us Create the Future we each wish to Live in..

Have a Brilliant Thought Provoking and Harmonious Week!

Blessings

Invictus Games–My Tribute.

 

After watching much of the Invictus Games over the past few days I have been in awe of these men and women who have shown such courage and determination in overcoming their tragic circumstances. Many of their stories brought tears to my eyes. Not only have they had to overcome their physical injuries, but they and others who have suffered such trauma have had to over come their mental barriers which often can take more healing than their broken bodies..

Turning our lives around after such an experience is often hard..

Sport has brought many of them back from their lonely ordeal of recovery.. Being part of a Team, encouraging and pulling each other up when things get tough is what unifies and brings  I AM into focus..

I couldn’t sleep the other night and wrote this Poem in Tribute to ALL those who have taken part, and those who have helped them to get to the point.. You are all truly Invictus ..

Invictus

 

I see your spirit riding high

Every challenge you meet you pass on by

You’ve pulled yourselves up within your hearts

Conquering obstacles right from the start

~

At times the odds were not stacked in your favour

But the I AM Will Power you have savoured

There must have been times when you felt so low

But your determination, True Grit is what you show.

~

Let us not forget your sacrifice

As those who rule roll the dice

In Games of War that snuff out life

To cause such suffering, grief and strife

~

Pride and admiration I have for your spirit

Invictus Hero’s each pushing your limits

All of you have come through so much

In Victory your medals to clutch

~

But Winners you are without a medal to hold

Be proud of the challenge to which you rose

You have connected to the I AM that we all are

And No Limits restricts the Light of a Star…

Well done to all..

An affirmation..

“ I place no limits and no restrictions on all that I intend to accomplish from here on in”

Blessings

~Sue~

A Letter from My heart to yours..

Dear Friends,

Where does one’s thoughts start as you try to make sense of the world?.. You can’t. All you can try to do is make sense of your own. And even that at times is hard to fathom.

I search my heart and often the tears will flow for no reason, other than such sadness sweeps through me at what we are doing to ourselves.

I pull myself up and give myself a good talking to.. Oh often!.. If you were a fly on the wall will you hear me talking away to myself. I am so blessed, very much so with the love of family, and try to send out my positive vibes to help add some Healing and peace to the world..

Is it the world’s tears I feel, or am I still shedding the layers of my own emotions? As I peel them off one by one.. Like the onion each layer releases its own toxins as my eyes sting from the injustices, the abuse, the suffering of many, the hurts of wounds unseen, I seem to take all to heart.. I cry inwardly within my moments of empathy for all whom I hear crying along with me.. Sometimes I wish I were not so sensitive, but I cannot and do not wish to change that what I am. ME.

And yet I also know all too well, that adding my tears solves nothing. It is only adding to the mixture of sorrow.. And I only want to add love and Peace to help bring about our own Humanities healing…

So I try to detach.. and often I am successful, I busy myself doing the things I love doing, painting, writing poetry, reading, Meditation, Qi Gong, gardening, playing with my granddaughter..

This month has been perhaps one of the hardest months ever for me. Perhaps it’s because I made the decision to retire.. We humans like to think we are in control don’t we?, The emotions I feel I cannot describe, as so many churn within my being. This decision took a Big trust in the Universe to go along with what I know felt right.. And I trust in its plan… and am ready to go along with the flow..And this step is a big one for me to take, and now it’s taken, I take the leap of faith to change.

We all Fear Change, mainly because we are treading upon uncharted waters.. We doubt and we want security… Trusting in something unseen and not tried is for many what holds them from making changes.. as they hang onto what they know… Much like the world right now, as we hang onto the old systems, the old ways, while all the while many are craving to break free of their constraints, as many are tied into the systems that hold them in debt that keeps them enslaved into the treadmill of toil… Life was never meant to be like this… Take a look around you.. Are you free?

I know I have my guides guarding my back, nudging me along, I just need to have more faith in me, so as if to let me know I am on the right path Synchronicities have already been showing up, I hope to explain about those at a later date.

I am writing from my heart as Its time to take a short break. I want this week to paint more.. and to just reflect and meditate as I allow my own inner healing to connect..

I thank you all for your kind and loving support.. and will be back to visit with my loyal friends shortly. Much love.. 

Love and Blessings

Sue
