I’ve recently discussed with a few people, their unhappiness with their current working situations. Seemingly unable, or unwilling, to make a work move they stay in a less than desirable situation. They realize that their work is making them unhappy, not only while at work, but is also in their home life. When one aspect of our lives is out of kilter, it affects its entirety. Imagine your life as if it were a ball – a perfect sphere. Your entire life forms the ball into its perfect shape. When one side of life is not working to your advantage, it’s as if the ball has a flattened side. Your ball wobbles to and fro, but when it encounters the flat side, it will stand still, unable to roll. The one flattened side affects the entire ball, halting the natural roll. The ball becomes unable to perform as it should. [Read more…]
The Ones We Love
“How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?”— Albert Einstein
We each perceive love in our own way. Your perception of love would be determined by your past experiences. If you were raised by particularly difficult parents, your perception would be totally different than that of someone raised in a family with two loving, caring and devoted parents.
Did your parents openly show or express their love for each other and you? Most often, the love we’re shown is the love that we will then show to others.
Everything Happens for a Reason
It’s often when we are faced with a challenging situation that we ask God, “Why?” Why did this happen? How could God have allowed this? Why me?
Why not you? God hasn’t put these situations or obstacles in your way to harm you – YOU DID. If you look at all the incidents in your life that have left an impact upon you as tools that shaped you into who you are today, you might be more accepting of the burdens you have faced or are now facing. You chose those incidents prior to birth, so that you could grow through the challenges.
Of course it’s always the troublesome issues that we complain about because they alter our lives as we know it. If it gets in our way, causes us to change, or delays our progress then we deem it unsatisfactory or bad. Think of the past issues you’ve had to deal with and/or overcome. Have you not been better for it? If nothing else, your mettle was tested and I’m sure that you passed. But, if you didn’t, you can be certain that a similar situation will present itself so you can try, try again.
Everything happens for a reason – there are no mistakes. You came here, to Earth, at this exact time, to grow spiritually. So, although you never relish the hard times, hopefully you’ll look at them as a time of learning. Get the job done right the first time – don’t avoid the situation. You don’t want to be faced with the same type of problem in the future.

Spiritual Symbolism
Imagine you couldn’t speak. How would you get your message across to others? How would you communicate that you want someone’s attention? You might wave your arms wildly hoping that someone would see the movement. You might tap someone on the shoulder.
Small children who are yet unable to form words do exactly this. With a very young grandson in our lives I have come to realize the similarities between how non-verbal children and spirit receive attention from us. If I’m not paying attention to him, or if he’s not getting his message across, my grandson gets louder and louder. Banging his hands on something to bring home the point is a big communication opener at the moment. Often children (and adults) get louder if someone isn’t paying attention or if they’re not being understood.
Spirit act in these same manner. Using clairaudience (psychic hearing) I often hear spirit around me. I may hear a far off conversation or hear the sound of something falling. Just recently, while standing in my living room, I heard a man’s distinct laugh coming from my family room. Unfortunately I didn’t recognize the voice so that I could identify the spirit, and was busy doing something so didn’t investigate further.
Hearing something in the home, as if someone has dropped something or if something is moved, are signs from spirit. Your surroundings are being manipulated in an attempt at communication. Sounds, although they are not tangible, are energy emitted by the spiritual being. They are just as real as something physical.
I’m sure that you have experienced what you’ve come to believe was a sign from a deceased loved one. And, I’m sure you’re correct. The problem is that you doubt. A fair amount of skepticism is healthy, but when you repeatedly are faced with the same, or very similar, signs, it’s time to acknowledge that you’re in contact with those on the other side of the veil.
Each spirit will have their own sign. For instance, each spiritual guide and some deceased loved ones make their presence known by where I feel their touch upon my body. For instance, my Master Guide touches my right shoulder, my mother touches my right shoulder blade, with my niece I feel pressure down my entire left side, and Jesus stands on my left – behind me and places His hand upon my shoulder. My paternal grandfather makes his presence known by appearing when I do readings for others. I know my maternal grandfather is present when I smell the cherry pipe tobacco that he loved. I have come to know, from experience, the spiritual symbolism used by the spirit surrounding me.
Spirit love to get our attention. It’s up to us, even when we don’t know who it is, to acknowledge their presence. Acknowledgement brings further work on the spirit’s part to open the lines of communication. Just as we want to communicate with them, they too want to stay in contact with us. Their message? “I’m still here – just in a different form.”

Happy New You
This is the first day of the rest of your life! Do you realize what that means?
The opportunities are endless, it’s an all-encompassing do-over!
How great would that be? Can you think of the things you’d like to change about yourself, the events of the past that you’d like to erase, the deeds that you would like to undo, negative words you’d like to take back?
It may sound surprising, but you’re no different than anyone else who reads this blog. Everyone, yes everyone, has experienced a period(s) in their life that they wish could be reversed. Whether you’re rich or poor, educated or illiterate, spiritual or atheist, we all have had issues we’ve had to deal with – things that we’re not proud of. But, today is the first day of the rest of your life!
You can begin, today, by forgiving yourself for past transgressions. Then, if apologies are in order, take care of them – NOW. Bite the bullet and finally put the past in the past. Your next step is to improve upon past lessons learned, realizing that they created who you are today.
So, begin anew – no matter when you happen to read this blog. It’s the first day of the rest of your life!
Blessings ~ Lisa
