Phoenix Rising

While I know I am in the absolute right place in the exact right time at all times, there are moments when things can still be a bit tough on this human plane. I returned to California from Florida toward the end of November of 2013. Although I had no idea what was next, I was pretty sure it would fall into place in the next 2 months….3 at the most. I was, of course, happy to see my parents and kids (grown up now but they’ll always be my kids). It was delightful to reconnect with friends in the area as well. As the weeks marched on, one situation would appear as a possibility and then another….only to fall apart a short time later. I was more than a little surprised to get almost no viable information about my next tropical door in spite of my numerous efforts. Instead, all I knew was my “next step” for months. In spite of the fact that I noticed (and assisted in) many wonders along my California journey, I had allowed some darkness to creep into my life in the form of doubt, sadness and discouragement. As I let these emotions insidiously grow, my remembrance of who I truly am and what I am capable of dimmed. Even though some others could still see my light, I was having difficulty seeing it myself. What I knew and what I felt became two very different places. One loud and very clear realization was there was no way I could live like this indefinitely.

A couple Earth Angels, aka my Parents, stepped up to help “revive” me. Some kind of retreat was necessary for renewal and reconnection with my Higher Self. A quite unseemly solution was found….a Caribbean cruise.

Most people think of a party like atmosphere on a cruise, particularly the cruise line with whom I sailed. However, I made it exactly the quiet miracle that I needed to become the bright and dazzling Bird of Fire – the Phoenix. Rising from the ashes of my previous recent “mis-creations”, I am, once again, strong in my knowing and in my conscious creation abilities.

I still am not sure of “what’s around the river bend” but I do know what is going on in my heart and soul.

Perhaps life is subtly (or not so subtly) weighing you down in one area or another. Maybe you’ve been going years without feeling like you are operating from your authentic self.  If so, chances are you could use emergency restoration like I did. I’m not suggesting a cruise, unless of course you too know how to make it work for that purpose. Let your imagination run wild.  What would really help shake things up for you? I know, the excuses of why you can’t do something are flowing just as fast as the things you’d like to do. Listen people!  This is your life! You deserve to live it fully. Now! Not when you have time.  Not when you have money. Not when you can get away from work. Not when (you fill in the blank). I encourage you to manifest the first miracle today of deciding you are going to do whatever it takes to live your life fully aligned, joyful and powerful. Then take just the next step in that direction.

And yes, sometimes we can use the assistance of others as we make this amazing journey on Gaia together.  This is still a lesson I am working on accepting. At this time, I express infinite gratitude for each and every Earth Angel (many of you know who you are) that has kindly lifted me up each and every day.

You have all helped rekindle my fire so I, in turn, can continue my magnificent work of shining for the rest of this world.  If you would like some encouragement, insight or inspiration to assist you in your own Resurrection, please consider Telephone Wellness Coaching.
