Pebbles of Peace Pathway 2.30

Love’s Embrace

Even though I am doing my best to move forward, it does not appear that I am being allowed to do so.

I will have to listen for a completely new direction and keep my own counsel.

I will have to let my Higher Power completely take over.

I am living next door to an addictive negative person.

But something loves me more than any amount of negativity.

I have proved that in my own life by moving from from early childhood trauma to independent adult confidence.

Apparently, I am being given the gift of a new way.

I will keep listening for it.

I know that Love is infinite.

We are all in Love’s embrace.

All of us.

I will listen for the love that is carrying me forward.

Adding Joy

I am so grateful to see more joy in my life and in my days.

I commited to discovering what I love to do and taking the steps to do it.

This has paid off over and over again and goes so much deeper into my entire life.

Even though it took several years to achieve the whole feeling, I am grateful I began adding elements of what I love to do wherever I could.

I began to look forward to collecting supplies for a project and then taking bits of time to work on it until it was done.

Often I had more than one project going at a time, because I would have to wait to figure out what I wanted to do at different points.

I was able to find others of like-mind and it was fun to work on similar ideas together.

This feeling of community broke the isolation I had been living in for so long.

Joy is an attracting factor.

It attracts you to what you love and it attracts you to others who celebrate the same kinds of enjoyment.

It is wonderful to have support as you figure out the next step;

It is uplifting to receive encouragement and suggestions as you ponder the overall effect.

Week by week, step-by-step, you create a monument to joy by your dedication.

You honor yourself in an uplifting manner.

You leave your sadness and desperation behind as you commit to a class or project.

You move yourself into the mentality of enjoyment.

You become more skillful.

You are willing to take chances and to experiment.

Your whole approach changes as you embrace this joyful aspect of yourself and make room to express it.

The more you do this, the more you move in the direction of your dreams.

And one day you live there.

Melting into Peace

When we go to visit our land in the country, I find myself just absorbing the peace.

Looking at the layers of green and the sky overhead expands my feelings so far beyond anything I have been dealing with day-to-day.

It is a gift to feel the Universe so close.

I listen to the bird calls during the day and the coyote calls during the night.

There is a rhythm to the Universe, to Nature.

I watch the trees blowing and listen to the sounds of wind in the high trees.

I hear the rustle of small creatures in the leaves at night.

I use different senses.

At night, I wake up and watch the slow progression of the constellations across the sky.

I feel encapsulated when I return to the city.

But I know another place in the Universe.
