Happy New Year! 2013

Tuesday, January 1, 2013   Happy New Year!

It feels so good to start again. This is an opportunity to set an intention to allow this year to be even better than the previous one. Today everyone has an open slate. You may fill it with all of your hearts desire.

Meditation: contemplate on, today I look forward to the many possibilities that are before me. God that lives within me is ever with me manifesting all my hearts desire. I open my heart and mind to receive my good. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

More of the same or more abundance...

Preparing for the New Year.

If you want your life to stay as it is then there is nothing more to do. Even if this past year has been fantastic, there is still more of this wonderful life to experience. The only preparation that is needed in my opinion is to release the old and allow room for the new experiences. Forgiveness is high on the preparation list. Setting clear intentions is very helpful in creating the image of what you would like to see happen in your life this coming year. Although, I believe that you need a vision in your mind of what you would like to see does not mean that it will come exactly as you see it. When we allow God to enter the plan, it always turns out even better than what we see.

I suggest that you find a quiet place and take breaths and then take deep cleansing breaths and just be still and quiet. Start to write a story, in your imagination, about yourself all the way from a beginning to an end that you create. Of course, there is never an end of your story but we have to stop somewhere and just watch the story unfold.

Imagine yourself healthy, prosperous, loving and in a loving relationship, successful and at peace in a peaceful world.

Keep a journal of what is happening around you. If you do not like what you see, go back to that relaxing place, still yourself and rewrite the whole story or make changes to the story. Once the story is as you desire it then, keep this story at the forefront of your mind. Take a few minutes each day and see this story come to life in your imagination. You are giving feelings and emotions to this story and this is a way that you experience what you desire before it manifests into your reality.

Just like you wash up everyday, make it a habit to forgive yourself and others each day. Just as you put on deodorant each day, why not sit for 5 to 10 minutes daily and bring the story to life. Routines can be boring but not when the routine is shaping the way you experience life. Allow yourself to be loved by you. Love is the answer to every question. Peace is how we will be in a place in our minds to love and get along with our fellow beings, animals and the earth.

Meditation: contemplate on, I desire a fuller life. God is the author of my life. I am guided to opportunities and I am making good choices for an abundant life. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Making commitments to ourselves...

When we make improvements to our lives whether it is losing weight or going out more, we feel more of ourselves and we can be even more present with others.

Because I picked up a few pounds more than my frame is use to, I found myself not feeling like interacting with my grandchildren or others as much. I love rolling around on the floor with them, dancing with them and just being who I am. After the weight crept onto my body, I stop doing a lot of things with them. I began to do some things about it but I was not consistent.

I missed truly being in the moment with them, so I decided to make a commitment to myself to change my lifestyle. I am making gradual changes and the result is gradual. I am pleased. I feel better. I am breathing better. My grandchildren can see the difference in me even if they do not say anything. They enjoy being with me and enjoying some of the activities that I stop doing. All I need is the awareness of the love that lives within me.

Meditation: contemplate on, the love of God lies within me. I am loving and I am love and I am loved. Love expresses through me as me. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I feel comfortable right where I am...

 Affirmation: I am perfect in every way in Spirit.

I am fortunate that I do not have any health issues. I am disease free and for this I am grateful. I still would like to release some excess weight that I carry on my body, improve my health and change my lifestyle.


This year I decided to take control of my health by letting go of foods that do not serve me or my body. I have been doing various things all year long. I already eat organic. I decided to incorporate juicing, raw foods and to use my blender to make green (vegetable) drinks. I am using more herbs and root vegetables in my daily menus. I am making an attempt to drink more water and do light exercises. The effect has been gradual. It does not bother me that my progress is slow because I want to change my lifestyle. It amazes me how others who say that they accept me as I am have advice about how I can improve myself even faster as though my progress currently is not just as I want it to be. How is it that still others who are around me can see even the slightest improvement that I make! It is a good thing that I am comfortable right where I am and with what I am doing.

I remind anyone who is losing weight or making any other changes to be confident that you have to do what works for you and what makes you happy.

Meditation: contemplate on, I set an intention to improve my health and I do not look over my shoulders for results. I allow the Spirit of God to Divinely unfold the plan. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Each day is unique...

Each day is unique within itself. The high winds and hard rain made it a good day and night to stay in and have a cup of tea and relax as I watched Christmas movies even though Christmas was yesterday. Today, two days after Christmas was beautiful still windy but dry outside. Each day has it own wonders.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am simply grateful for each day as it comes. Knowing the Presence of God is ever with me comforts me. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I am becoming more mindful each day...

Being mindful means not only do you hear but you are listening. Being mindful means not only do you look but you see with compassion. Not being mindful is why the thought (positive thought) does not register.
Dr. Rudolph Tanzi, Ph.D

Just imagine if more of us would practice these two things: truly listening and seeing with compassion, how much the whole world would change.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am being mindful. I see and hear with the eyes and ears of God. Take 3 deep breaths and go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I'm part of all things made...not part of the drama.

It is not by choice that we are a part of everyone and everything made. This is the wholeness of God. No matter what you believe, there is no denying that every element in the earth is within you. If you have too much of something it throws your whole system off and you if you do not have enough, it throws your system off. We are connected to the earth and to each other.

Someone said to me recently that they are not part of a situation that was taking place. The truth of the matter is they are an integral part of that situation. We are characters in many people's stories. I think what they meant was they choose not to be part of another person's drama. We do not have to take the role in the story. Yes, we can choose to be in or out of another person's drama. If only, we understood that, then we could communicate more honestly and completely.

I try not to involve anyone in my drama but that does not mean they are not part of the story. When we learn the differences, we can get on with loving each other and enjoying each other for just being who we are.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am a part of everything in the Universe. I choose not to be part of another person's drama. I bless each circumstance and move on. Take 3 deep breaths and go into the silence for at least three minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I claim Peace for All...

Christmas Day!

Many people celebrate the birth of Jesus the Christ. Even if a particular religion does not celebrate Christmas, it is a respected holiday that many benefit from. There are so many lessons we can learn just by being in the flow of this time of year. Celebrating this holiday as with other Holidays around the world and in many cultures is uplifting and is always about being a better person and peace.

 Let us spread this message of Love, Harmony and Peace to everyone that we meet and let it flow out into the world. All Christmas' and celebrations of Light is beautiful and wonderful. I believe this year is special especially since we are much more aware of ourselves and each other.

I am claiming for all who reads this message and those who exists on the planet a Merry Christmas, a Happy Holiday whatever you celebrate a wonderful healing, loving, bountiful and peaceful life. May we experience Peace in our time, right now that surpasses all understanding.

Meditation: contemplate on, peace is right now. Peace is within me and begins with me. I spread peace through my thoughts, words and actions wherever I go. I experience peace that surpasses human understanding. I accept peace right now. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I allow my day to unfold Divinely...

Have you ever experienced a day when things seem to go wrong and nothing seems to go as you planned it? This was the case for a group of people who have faith that in spite of how it looks believe that the outcome would be for the good of all concerned.

People did not show up on time or did not show up at all. There seem to be some confusion but no one allowed stress to set in. It wasn't that there was no stress; stress is always present. We did not allow stress to overcome us. There was prayer for this day to unfold divinely.

What a wonderful day it was today. It was a beautiful and exciting day to spend time together and allow the Spirit of God to move through us. It is possible for a day to seemingly go wrong and to suddenly appear to be perfect when we trust that the Divine is always present.

Meditation: contemplate on, no matter how my day unfolds, I know that God is present, ever present. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and then go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Enjoying one day at a time...

The beginning of winter is a beautiful time of the year on the East Coast. Yes, it tends to be cold. Today was a very cold day. I enjoy the cold breeze in my face and my hands because this makes me feel alive. I enjoyed looking at Poinsettias and the decorated store windows. The lights are simply breathtaking at Christmas time. The frequency of the vibration is high. Many of us are preparing for family and friends to visit us and spend family time together.

There some of us who are alone with no one to share all this joyous time. This is a time to be quiet and commune with God. Whether we are with people or alone, it is a blessed time of the year.

Meditation: contemplate on, I look around me in wonder. I do not clutter my mind with sad thoughts. I am only allowing thoughts that are loving and of good rapport. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

No matter what time it is...God is ever present.

There has been a lot of events leading up to this day, December 21, 2012. Some people believe this day ends the world physically as we know it. I watched several programs on TV about the end of the world. Any topic or thing is an opportunity to make money. Some people did just that. There were shelters sold, jewelry and books written about what was to happen today.

I thought about the people who believe that we are in our last days and had a doomsday story to tell anyone who would listen. Then there are those who said that we are going to continue on to something new. One group believe the end would take us to a positive future while the other group believe that we were going into a type of hell. Here we are and it appears as though we awaken to a day pretty much like the day before this one.

In my opinion, December 21, 2012 is the end of something; that would make both points of views in agreement. We have come to the end of a world as we know it. Technology has changed for sure. We can reach out and touch anyone anywhere in the world. Although, this is possible right now, it is going to be even faster and on a much larger scale in the future. Educating children has taken a giant leap forward. In the public schools across the country, every child is required to have the internet. If parents cannot afford the internet, the cable companies will provide it for free.

Near the end of a year...

Tis the season to be jolly.

This is the season when many different religions and cultures reflect on the old life and hope for a new life through the celebration of candle lighting. This is the time when many people open their hearts and step outside of the box that they may be comfortable or familiar with. This is the time of year when people are open to love, warmth and tolerance. People are open and ready to forgive. This an ideal time for forgiveness. 

I take this opportunity each year to reflect on what I accomplished and what I would like to accomplish. I then think about those who were negative influences in my life. I forgive each one and myself so that I can begin again. This is a time to wipe the slate clean and look forward to a new beginning.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am at the end of a year and I look forward to the new year. My Source...God is ever with me. Take 3 deep breaths and go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Let there be peace...

I am recognizing the Presence that I call God that lives within all things. God lives in everyone. In everyone and everything peace lives. I am blessing everyone with peace, love and harmony. I claim peace among all people of the world. I give thanks for this truth. I release this word in Law knowing it does not return void. And So It Is. Amen.

Meditation: contemplate on, peace begins with me. Peace is within everyone. I experience peace now.
Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Memories...takes the mind from the present.

"Memories like the corners of my mind. Misty water colored memories of the way we were." lyrics from The Way We Were written by Marvin Hamlisch


It is said that if we went back to a time that we thought was so wonderful, it would not be as we remembered it. It is the memories that we hold about something. We paint the picture as we want it to be and decide for ourselves, that's the way it was.

This is a blessing. There are posts on Facebook, news reports of the tragedy of the 28 people who were victims of a tragic shooting. This tragedy must stay relatively fresh in order for the issues not to be swept under the rug. It is after all the Christmas Holiday season. This is the celebration of the birth of the Christ, Jesus.

To take our minds away from this tragedy is a good idea. One can not fill the mind only with horrific images. So I stepped back to when the Old Wanamaker's Department Store had a Christmas light show. It brought back so many pleasant memories. Although, I watched this on Youtube, I still watched just as I did when I was a young child. It's alright to move our attention from the horrible to something good.

Meditation: contemplate on, I thank God for memories. I go to the screen room and view the memories as much as I need to. I know that I do not live there for now is the only time there is. I accept this blessing. Take 3 deep blessings and go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Choices...

Choices are made consciously and sometimes unconsciously. Nevertheless, we are making choices all the time. Because we are responsible for the choices that we make, I think we forget that we are influenced by many factors. Our families have great influence on our choices. Friends and TV ads are very influential. If this were not so, why would companies spend millions of dollars on TV ads and marketing? The collective consciousness already have beliefs in place that are taken for granted by us as though they are absolutely true and can not be changed. Beliefs can be changed by changing your thoughts.

The first thing that I do is pray. I sit quietly in my comfortable chair and just relax, stilling my mind and body. I meditate on this matter. If I need to, I speak with a spiritual person such as a practitioner or a like-minded friend.

When I desire to make a major decision, I reflect on all of the things discussed in the first paragraph and then I try to figure out why I am indecisive about making a particular choice. This is a good approach for me.

I feel that I am finally honest with myself and I start to ask myself tough questions. Are you happy doing what you are doing? What will you do when you do not have close friends or family around you? I then make my first decision to stop listening to other people. I start asking myself what do I really want to do? When does it make sense for me to make a choice, right now or later? Who does this choice affect or impact the most?

My choices most times are not made hastily. I usually take time to decide whether I really want to do something or not.  I rely on divine guidance for help in making decisions and making wise choices.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am Divinely guided in making wise choices. Breathe deeply. Take 3 cleansing breaths and go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Give until your heart bursts with joy...

The more we give the more we receive. It is indeed a good feeling when we give of ourselves to others. That's what life is about. Sometimes our understanding of giving is what keeps us from giving. If there is not an overflow of money then we sometimes believe that we have nothing to give. There is so much to give. When we give a smile or a hug to someone, these are gifts that we give from our hearts. Offering a friend lunch or dinner is a gift of fellowship and what a gift this is. It is a gift when someone helps another with heavy bags. There are more ways to give than with money. Life is full of giveaways. Give until your heart burst with joy.

Meditation: contemplate on, as I give I receive. All of my needs are supplied to me from my source. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Now, go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Prayer for All...God is everywhere present...

 Prayer for us and the families in Newtown, Connecticut:

Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost part of the sea. Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. Psalm 139: 7-10

I recognize the Presence of God that lives in all and everything. God is Peace, Love and Harmony. There is only One Life and that Life is perfect. All of us live and have our being in that One Life that I call God. Peace, Love and Harmony is within all of us. God is everywhere present. Love, peace and harmony is everywhere present. I realize that the flow of this loving energy is in and around each one of us, and expresses as us. So, I am blessing each person who was touched in any way by this tragedy. I bless the families who suffered a loss of a love one. May peace surround the families, their community and the nation. In God everything is whole and complete so all is well. I give thanks for this truth and the manifestation of unseen Good. I release this word into the Law knowing it does not return void. I release and let God. And So It Is. Amen

Meditation: contemplate on, God is within me. God is everywhere present. I am never alone. Peace, Love and Harmony lives in me. I am peaceful, calm and loving. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and then go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Peace is so close...you could touch it.

On Friday, December 14, 2012, a horrible massacre took place in Newtown, Connecticut. 27 people were killed of which 20 were children. I could not believe what I was reading and watching on the news channel. This is not the first time that this kind of violence has taken place. In fact, violence by guns is becoming more frequent with many people blaming every facet of society for what happened today. Many people feel that there should be more gun control laws. Nothing seems to be working to assure our citizens that this will not happen again. It seems to get worse instead of better.

What you focus on you get more of it. When you accept thoughts into your mind and attached emotions to the thoughts, the manifestation of the thoughts shows up in your life. This does not mean that nothing is to be done about this horrible tragedy. Feelings must be expressed and the survivors of the dead must grieve. Lawmakers must be responsible and introduce laws that will keep us safe from harm and needless violence.

When we realize that peace, harmony, love and compassion is within us and when we align ourselves with peace, with love, with compassion then, we will experience peace in our lifetime.  We must think and speak more peaceful, loving, kind and compassionate thoughts. Our faith must remain strong.

Meditation: contemplate on, what I see in the world is not true in Spirit. My faith is strong. I align myself with peace that lies within me and I see peace in the world now. Breathe deeply. Inhale slowly take a deep cleansing breath, then release it through your nose. Inhale another deep breath and exhale through your mouth. Take one more deep breath slowly exhaling through your nose. Breathe noticing your breath. Go into the silence for as long as you would like to. Lovely LadyFran

Everything must change...

Today there was a list of 40 public school closings in Philadelphia in June 2013. As I read the article I saw that  both my old Jr. High and Senior high schools were closing. I posted this information on our high school alumni page with sadness.

I reminded myself that everything must change and nothing stays the same. Sometimes I like going into an old neighborhood and reflecting on old memories of my past days as a student. I have even stopped in to a school that I attended to see if I would recognize a familiar face.

With these two school closings, there were special memories. I student taught in my former Jr. High School which became a middle school recently and I became a faculty member at my old high school where I taught mathematics for eight years. So, you can see, that there is a special place in my heart for these two schools. Although, I experienced a few moments of sadness, I realized that change is life and life is change.

Meditation: contemplate on, everything changes except God that lives within me and is changeless. Breathe deeply. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Today's date: 12/12/12...

Today is 12/12/12. This day according to experts who study the stars and the planets, is suppose to shift so that thought and its manifestation will be in an instant.

I believe it is already true that the thought and its manifestation is instant. The faith of the thinker determines how quickly the manifestation becomes visible. People are becoming aware of themselves and the power in their thoughts. It is an exciting time to be alive.

Consciousness is being raised in man/woman. I see a world of peace, love, prosperity and people caring about each other. Although, I see this happening this does not mean that I believe that everyone believes this. People in our world have become more spiritual while falling away from organized religion. Whether we see major changes or small changes, we have our being in God. God is all there is.

Meditation: contemplate on, There is no time or space in the Mind of God. There is only God. There is only One Life. That Life is God. That Life is my life now. Exhale out through your mouth. Now, inhale deeply and exhale through your nose. Take another deep breath in and breath out through your mouth. Take one more deep breath in and exhale through your nose. Now, notice your breathing for as long as you like. Lovely LadyFran

An ending is an opportunity for a beginning...

On December 10th, I wrote my 100th article. This has been an exciting experience that is taking me to unexpected paths on my journey. The date itself, 12/10/2012, when each digit is added together the sum is 9. Nine represents completion just as it takes nine months for a human being to be completely formed. I am certain that this blog is guiding me to places that help me and others to grow. 

Meditation: contemplate on, as one project ends a new one begins. My gifts and talents keep appearing in my life and I love what I do. Take a deep breath. Take another deep breath. Take one more deep breath. Now, go into the silence for at least three minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Pray without ceasing...

When we pray without ceasing there is always that peaceful state that is forever ours just for the asking. Some days do not take much effort. It goes smoothly and joyfully. There are other days when someone says something that may just not be what you want to hear. It is not a matter that you needed to hear whatever was said. This someone could just be inconsiderate or not very mindful. There is an opportunity to realize that you can pray and leave the matter in God's hand. This is the beauty of praying without ceasing. You feel that you are not alone in any circumstance.

Meditation: contemplate on, I pray without ceasing. I am surrounded by the loving Spirit of God eternally. Take a deep cleansing breath. Take two more deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

*This is my 100th article.

Change your beliefs...change your thoughts...

The more inner work you do on yourself, the more able you are to hear the truth about your behavior and not get angry. I was watching Iyanla, Fix my life which is a television show. This is a show where Iyanla Vanzant goes from city to city and to different states to help people with their lives by helping them to face the truth about themselves (the truth about their behavior). She also reminds them of the truth of who they are. She reminds them that they are enough and already have everything they need to live a fulfilling life.

As I watched the show, I thought to myself, would I become angry because a truth about my behavior has come up. I think the answer is yes, sometimes. I am getting better with facing truths that are unpleasant or do not fit the image that I am accustomed to projecting. When I see a behavior before me that could stand overhauling and I can laugh about it and I do not get upset, this shows growth.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am open to the truth. I change my beliefs by changing my thoughts. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths, go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Bring passion to everything that you do...

Sometimes we think that a job or event magically makes us passionate about doing it. Listening to Jean Houston on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday made me think about this idea of the job bringing the passion to people instead of it being the other way around.

Perhaps, this may be why many people find something new and before long the passion leaves. Passion is within all of us. We must begin to bring passion to everything that we do. This includes vacuuming the rugs, dusting the tables and doing the laundry.

Once we realize this is the direction we must go in, then we will begin to experience passion in others, our work, entertainment and our relationships. It is always an inside job out and not the other way around.

Meditation: contemplate on, I go within to that sacred space and become one with passion, love, peace. I bring passion, love and peace to all that I do. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and go into the silence for at lease 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Nothing is free in life.

Nothing is free in life. This is such a true statement. I believe that we are all here to serve each other. We are participants and co-creators in this life. When we are blessed, we are to enjoy our blessing and pass a blessing along to others. I do not think it stops with me or you.
 
What ever the blessing is that you receive does not have to be the same one that you pass on to your neighbor. The neighbor's need may be different from yours.

We do not have to keep cash on hand or spare clothes available. We only need to open our hearts and ask, how may I serve today? The answer will come. Your blessing to someone else could be a smile, a hug, spending time with a lonely person, or taking time to listen to someone. Giving and receiving are two sides of the same coin. When we receive, we must give. When we give, we receive.

Meditation: contemplate on, I open my heart and mind to receive my good and I give openly from my heart. Giving and receiving completes the circle. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths, go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Breathe...Breathe...Breathe.

Breathe and let go. I allow myself to be at one with all of life. I am moving through this day with ease and grace. These quality thoughts must be intentionally allowed to flow into our minds so that they may come into fruition. This is one way to set good intentions in order to have a good day. Our days will be happier.

Meditation: contemplate on, I breathe and let go of any thoughts that do not serve me. I breathe and take in thoughts that serve my highest and best. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths, go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I will do all that I can...

I will do all that I can with whatever I have, wherever I am...I will let good enough, be good enough. by Gratitude Photos

This was a quote from a poster. It resonated with me. This is living in the moment and fully. Sometimes in this life, I have tried to do more than there was energy or desire to do. Sometimes others were happy because they received what they wanted leaving me unhappy, and wondering why I did this.

Each day I strive to do my best wherever I am and whatever the task. I leave with satisfaction feeling that its good enough and do not think about the task or job any further. This is truly giving from the heart. If I could have done more then I would have done more. I will let good enough, be good enough.

Meditation: contemplate on, my heavenly Father is within me and is pleased with me. I let good enough be good enough. Take 3 cleansing breaths and go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Self-Talk...

For a long time, when I have a lot to do in a day, I take a short cut and buy dinner from Whole Foods Supermarket. There is nothing like preparing a meal to order for yourself. I would even tell myself that I did not want to do dishes. This is my lower self trying to talk myself out of making meals at home that are tastier, healthier and nutritious.

Once I let the  inner talk stop, I returned home and prepared a meal for myself. The meal was nutritious and the cleanup was quick and easy.

This is an example of self talk that can have an affect on our actions. It is important to deliberately self talk and allow high quality thoughts that make a positive different in our lives.

Meditation: contemplate on, I only allow thoughts in my mind that affect my life in a positive way. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths, go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Everyday is a good day...

Everyday is a good day. I have heard this said by people that I know, who see life as good no matter what is going on in their lives.

This makes me wonder if I am missing something. I think we generalized the whole day by one experience that was not favorable. If the day goes the way we expect it to, then it is a good day. If the day does not go exactly as we want it to, then it is not a good day.

Today, I had to come face to face with that expression, that is, everyday is a good day. It is true that everyday is a good day. We must find the good in our day and then focus on that. Today, my day started off with a challenge that could have made me feel that my whole day was going to be like this, which was not good to me. I took some deep breaths and believed that this challenge would turn out alright and it did.

Later, I received  a call with another challenge and again it was as though I was starting my day anew. I began to breathe and focus on what is good about this day and being grateful.  No matter how I feel or how I respond to what I was feeling, I still believed that everything would work out. When I take away the challenges of today, the rest of the day was marvelous. Sometimes, I wonder why do I concentrate on 2 hours out of a 24 hour day that did not go the way I wanted it to, instead of focusing on the other part of the day. I know there is still more inner work to be done on. As I continue on my journey, I release old matters and discover new beginnings. At the end of this day, I must say, it was a good day.

Meditation: contemplate on, as I walk on my journey, I stay in the now by releasing old matters and by discovering new beginnings. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths then, go into the silence for at least 3 minutes.

Joy and Laughter...

Having joy and laughter in your life is part of living a spiritual life. We are to have a rich and full life.

Today is my granddaughter's birthday. What joy it brought me to see her and give her a gift that she has wanted for sometime. The more I live life I want to spend it with family, friends and love ones. This to me is what life is about. Money is important but being with people that you care about, sharing, laughing and to fellowship with like minded people is another kind of abundance. I want to say that I truly enjoyed my granddaughter's birthday almost as much as she did. Thank you sweetheart for sharing your birthday with me.

Meditation: contemplate on, the joy that is within me, I allow to flow through me into my experiences. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Walk slowly...

I find that when I rush, I miss out on the small things. My frame of mind is focused around getting to what I have to do or where I have to be. Even if I accomplish what I set out to, I can not really enjoy it.

I have given myself a mantra "walk slowly". When I get up in the morning, I get up slowly and just sit with myself for a few minutes. I do not rush to go anywhere anymore. I answer slowly. I used to think I had to give my answers almost before the question or comment was finished. This was having confidence to me, or so I thought, because I answered so quickly.

When I thought this way, I was allowing parts of myself to go places and be with people and it was not what I wanted to do. This would definitely give me stress. I was not living from an authentic place. I rarely commit to something anymore without talking it over with "myself. I say silently to myself, "walk slowly".

Since I have been saying and using this mantra, I have become more confident. I do not let another person  try to talk me into anything; because I am walking slowly. I find that I show up wherever I am suppose to with more energy because I want to be there. When I whole heartedly give my word that I will do something, I feel better doing whatever was asked of me. I am not suggesting that I am never caught off guard but usually this does not happen often. I contribute this new confidence to taking myself serious and "walking slowly".

Meditation: contemplate on, I am allowing my divine plan to unfold in its own time. I walk slowly on my journey enjoying every step of the way. Take 3 deep breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Change...resist or not to resist...

~Change~...when the form, nature, content or the future course, etc., of something is different from what it is or what it could be if left alone.
Dictionary.com

Part of moving to a peaceful world is having to change. There has to be a change in thinking and change in some of the beliefs we have held onto for most of our lives.

Adapting to change is part of living life more abundantly. It is so comfortable and familiar to just keep thinking and doing things the same way. There is uncertainty about going into unknown territory. I believe this is why there is so much resistance to change. In resisting, at least to some changes in our lives, we miss out on a richer and fuller life. This resistance makes it unable for us to receive more abundance in our lives. This is something to think about.

Meditation: contemplate on, my Source is God. I am one with my Source. I trust myself to step forward into this ever changing world knowing my Source is within and with me always. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Peace...let it begin with me.

Peace...a state of mutual harmony between people or groups.
Dictionary.com

In order for peace to happen and stay with us, we have to shake up the status quo. This seems to be happening all over the world. The old regime is crumbling. The world is going through a cleansing.

Peace can not happen with the same people or with the same kind of thoughts. New thoughts and ideas have to come forth. This begins with each one of us.

We can not go into this peace venture halfway. It has to be all the way. It begins with each one of us. Let's begin with peace hour by hour and day by day until it is all the time.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am peace. Peace is within me. Let me express peace moment by moment until it is expressing as me all the time. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I live and have my being in...God.

 Treatment/Prayer

Recognition: I am recognizing the One Power, One Presence that I call God that lives in everyone and everything. There is only One Life and I live and have my being in Life...God. 

Unification: God lives within me and I am one with this Presence.

Realization: The Presence of God flows through me expressing as me. It is the Presence of God that is expressed in my words and deeds. I attract to me the right people, right relationships and right circumstances that makes my life perfect in every way. I am whole and complete.

Thanksgiving: I give thanks for this Truth that manifest all things. I give thanks for my Source that makes my life whole. I am eternally grateful.

Release: I release this word knowing that they do not return to me void. I let go and let God.

And So It Is.  
Amen.

Meditation: contemplate on the breath. As you close your eyes, begin to notice your breathing and relax your body as you inhale and exhale. As you go into a deeper state of relaxation, notice that you are exhaling longer. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and then sit quietly continuing to notice your breathing. When you are ready, you will slowly open your eyes and return to the room that you are in.  Lovely LadyFran

Give it...just one more chance...

The greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to success is always to give it just one more chance. ~Thomas Edison~

I went to the Omega Institute a few years ago. One of the founders along with another facilitator gave a workshop on health and wellness.

The co-founder told us a story of how he became a doctor who practiced integrative medicine and had an idea for a place where people could come and heal. He told us the facility was big and posh. This place did not work out for him. He did not give up on his idea and dream. He went on to co-found the Omega Institute and it is world famous. Spiritual healers, philosophers and mystics from around the world teach and share their knowledge and wisdom at Omega. What if this man had given up or just not given it one more chance? I had such a beautiful experience there, I can not imagine this wonderful serene and peaceful place not existing. Omega is truly unique.

Meditation: contemplate on, all I have to do is to keep my faith and be patient knowing that with the Spirit of God, all things work for my best. I am grateful. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Helping others...

I remember when I was a young child, if anyone asked me to help them, I did it without hesitation. There was so much joy that I received when someone asked me to do something for them. As I got older more people asked for my help and never asked if I needed their help. It was as though some of these people did not realize that I was human too. The joy seem to leave me when I was asked for help.

I saw other people misusing me. I had to re-exam how to respond when giving my service or help to others. In my heart, in that deep space, I know that I am a giver. Knowing that I am a giver, somehow I had to recapture that joyous giver that I am.

It took a long time to realize helping others also means to help yourself and to expect support. When we pray asking God's help, it comes through people. People are meant to help each other. I once heard someone say, when you are doing for others you do not get tired. This seemingly is true but it is not. You do have more energy than normal, yet all of us need to rest. When I do for others, I feel fulfilled.

The body is a form that requires rest, sleep, water, food and rejuvenating from time to time. Once we realize that no one person can save the world, we can allow others to step in and help when we cannot. It took a long time for me to "get this".

Meditation: contemplate on, I listen to my inner voice and I follow the guidance of the Spirit of God. I open my arms to help others and I know when to allow others to step in and help. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Peace...now...

I believe peace is possible in my time. In order for this to happen, I must start thinking more peaceful thoughts. Everything I do or say peace has to be present. 

When I truly embrace this idea, it will permeate my entire being and radiate out to others. When others feel and see peace, they too will act more peacefully. This continues until we have a segment of our society who are peaceful people. Once there is a segment of peaceful people the mass consciousness changes. The vibrational frequency is raised. In meditation, I imagine that this is so. I bring my focus on this until it becomes my reality.

Meditation: contemplate on, at the table of God there is love, peace, joy and harmony. I claim my place at the table. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Talking about your problems is not negative but is mature...

There's nothing negative about yelling "Fire" if indeed the house is burning down. Talking about what needs to be corrected in your life is not "negative," it's mature. And talking about what needs to be corrected in your country isn't "negative," either. The spiritual journey is aligned with, not separate from, responsible adulthood and citizenship.
~Marianne Williamson~


This seems like good old common sense which is of God and is very spiritual. It seems to me that this is the place to begin any problem that you may be facing. When I talk to people about concerns or discontent in their lives, this is the place where we begin. 

The issue or problem has to be called what it is, so that, either I am clear or whomever I am speaking with is clear about the problem. It must be clear what changes we would like to see in our life. It is after taking these steps that we can begin to use our tools to change our beliefs in order to change the present circumstances to new and desirable circumstances.

Of course, prayer precedes the first two steps. Entering into a frame of mind of receptivity is important. One must be open to ideas and hear clearly the messages that come through, and that the messages are of God.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am in alignment with the Infinite Intelligence...God. God is my Source and knows all about me. I am open to Divine guidance and to receive Divine right answers. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Read...Listen to the Whole story...

Today, one of my fellow practitioners posted a story that was a lesson. It was a must share. Two of my former colleagues read the post and talked with each other through posting. One person said to the other person that the whole story had to be read and that there was a lesson for all. Apparently, the other person read it through and shared the story.

Sometimes we judge people or  circumstances without reading or listening to the whole story.

Also, it came to mind that when we pray, sometimes, we throw in the towel too soon.

Meditation: contemplate on, I pray believing that I already have what I desire. God does the work and I do my part having faith, waiting and being patient. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

If you would like to read the post that I am referring to, read below:

The Day after...

Thanksgiving is a wonderful holiday. It is a day that most people in the United States spend with family and friends. It kind of funny that we think we have to have a special day to be with people we love. Sometimes some of our friends and family members come from other states around the world to be together on Thanksgiving Day.

As much as possible, I believe we should take every opportunity to be with family and friends. This closeness is lost to our society. Alone time is just as important.

Thanksgiving has history. We remember the indigenous people as well as the first settlers who according to the history books had a meal of Thanksgiving together. When the day ends, most of us return to our lives of not communicating with friends. Let us give thanks not just on a specific day. Let us give thanks for the many blessings that we receive everyday.

Meditation: contemplate on, I give thanks for all of my blessings everyday. I am grateful. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least for 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Making time to just be...

There is so much to distract us from giving our full attention to ourselves, family and friends. There does not even seem to be enough time to still ourselves and just be.

I was watching Oprah's Super Soul Sunday and her guest was Eckhart Tolle, who said this society's attention is involved in smartphones, computers, tablets and many more gadgets.

I too am caught up in this technological feast. I love gadgets. I get so involved with my smartphone that I spend hours on it. I love all the apps and features that this wonderful gadget has. I do the same with my tablet and all the other gadgets that I have. Eckhart Tolle said that this involvement is merely collecting information but spending quiet time is necessary to expanding our consciousness.

Taking a time out from your computer and other electronics is healthy. Even a short amount of time is helpful. Not having enough time is only a thought. We do not have to believe every thought that comes through our minds. We can choose the thought, I do have enough time, and we can just do it.
 
Meditation: contemplate on, I give my full attention to all the blessings that come to me today. I make time in my day to be still and be. I am grateful for this day. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

My highest and best...

Sometimes we are comfortable just where we are. In prayer we pray for a person's highest good. This good that we pray for can be out of the range of our imagination. I want my highest and best although, this could mean a little more work and patience is required.

I get reflexology done on my feet. I have been sticking to a healthy eating plan and I can see some visual results. Best of all, I feel much better than I have in a long time. I was told that there was some swelling on the sides of my feet and they were swollen even more today than last time. Immediately, I thought that I was doing something wrong. My reflexologist explained that I have improved in some areas and that it takes time for those benefits to reach all areas of the body. I was relieved to hear this but understood that I have a bit more work to do. Part of my work is to know my body extremely well. I do not just want to be a little better, I want to operate with a superb mind, body and spirit, that is, my highest and best.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am one with the Infinite Power that I call God. I allow the Power of God to flow through me and express as me; raising my consciousness to its highest and best. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and then go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Holidays...I am at peace...

Activities and gatherings may pack my schedule during the holiday season. Sometimes it can seem overwhelming. Yet in the midst of any busyness, I can find peace and calm within.
~Daily Word~ pg 30 November, 2012 issue

With the holidays coming stress is definitely part of the equation. Food shopping and shopping for those presents for family and friends can be trying. In all of this, we can still find peace.

We can keep our minds on the positive and pleasant thoughts of our holiday season. We get to be with family and friends that we do not see on a regular basis. It is good to gather together and express our love for each other. There is so much to be thankful for. Peace is already within us. Now is the time to connect to it.

Meditation: contemplate on, no matter what is going on around me, I am at peace. I say these words feeling peace welling up within me. Take 3 deep breaths and then go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Being mindful...being respectful...

Each one of us is an individualized expression of the One God.

When we look at it in this way, it should help us to understand that we see the same things differently sometimes. This provides us with an interesting interaction with each other. Being mindful and respectful with each other allows us to enjoy differences of opinions.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am respectful and respect opinions of others. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and then go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Prayer...our connection with the One Mind...

There is no space or time in the Mind of God...

Recently, I have received a large amount of requests for prayer. It is not possible to personally go and visit each person. Some of these people are not in my geographic location.

So, I pray where I am knowing that my prayer comforts these people because there is no time or space in the Mind of God and God is wherever everyone is. Sometimes I am able to call and pray over the phone and other times I email prayers. When this seems not to be possible, I go to a place, still myself and then I do my affirmations, prayers and pray for others.

Some of these people who request prayer excitedly respond to let me know that prayer does work. It is important when we ask for prayer that we let the person praying know that we received comfort or an answer to our prayers. To know that your prayer helped someone, strengthens one's faith. As a matter of fact, it strengthens everyone's faith.

In my morning prayers, I pray for my family and neighbors and each person that I believe need prayer and then I pray for the whole world and everything in it.

Meditation: contemplate on, I pray without ceasing. I know prayer is how I connect with the One Mind... God, where I live and have my being. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths. Go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Enthusiasm from the deep well within...

I am excited about preparing for a juice fast that I have decided to do. I have been visualizing and seeing myself making healthy choices in diet and exercises. I have a juicer but wanted the Breville fountain plus. I saw it in the documentary film, "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead", which was very encouraging.

Although, I respect the people in the documentary, I will adapt the program to what is needed for me. I do not know if I will do a sixty day juice fast or just include juice fasting in my program. I am doing things one day at a time.

As I meditate and allow Spirit to move through me and to be open to hear how I am being directed; opportunities seem to come my way. I looked on Amazon for this juicer and it was reasonable but, I was led to go to Bed, Bath and Beyond and received an incredible deal, so I bought one.

I had lost some of my motivation and enthusiasm to move forward in taking charge of getting back on the healthy trail. I know what to do. I turned within to my Source for what I need to start back on this road to feeling energetic and enthusiastic about life. When you are not fully healthy, the rest of your life is just moving on auto pilot. I am now actively co-creating my life with the creator.

Meditation: contemplate on, I go within and pull from the deep well, enthusiasm. Enthusiasm radiates throughout my being. And now, I make healthy wise choices as I enjoy the process in my healing. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and then go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Being a role model is taking responsibilty...

It is important for me to model well for my grandchildren without becoming unauthentic. I am getting my body, mind and spirit into shape. If I try working on one part of me, I must work on the other aspects of me. I want to be in balance. I have been juicing for quite awhile now. My grands who are still little people do not even want bottled juice any longer. Personally, I do not blame them. Juices made from fresh fruits and vegetables are much more nutritious and certainly more tasty. I also make smoothies and they tell others about the smoothies that I make.

I was using my tablet to look up the benefits of juicing versus making smoothies and I learned a lot. This information was provided by YouTube. Experts take documented information and launch it onto YouTube so that it is available to people around the world. Some of the experts are from other parts of the world.

I enjoy connecting with people from around the world. I marvel at the internet and the technology that is at our disposal. We can take it or leave it.

I saw the most amazing juicer. I already have one but I am getting a new one. This juicer is so fast that it encourages you to do more juicing. I am excited.

When I woke up this morning, I gave thanks for my breath and thanks for today and all in it. I began with Deepak Chopra's 21 day challenge meditation. Today, we are on day number 12. I could not have imagined that I would be exposed to information that I needed to hear that was connected to today's meditation. The meditation was about intention and putting that intention into a bottle and letting it go into the ocean of Pure Consciousness. One of my intentions is getting myself back into shape, with a healthy diet and exercise. I would like to prepare by doing a juice fast or juice feast, as it is called. All of the information that I need to get started and answers to the many questions that I have about juicing, juicers and preparation for a juice fast was right within my reach by way of my tablet.

As I prepared breakfast, I watched and listened to information from a array of perspectives. I came through all of this information without confusion. I know how I am going to proceed. I know exactly what kind of juicer I am going to purchase and the amount of money that I am willing to spend.

Everything just sort of clicked right into place. I was motivated to attempt a juice fast for a few days after watching a documentary, "Fat, sick and nearly dead". This documentary is worth watching even if you do not have weight concerns.The medicinal benefits that are in green leafy vegetables and fruits are amazing. Many diseases have gone into remission or just gone completely away. Everything we need to know and how to get it is right in front of us.

Meditation: contemplate on, my eternal Source is always with me, always available, I only have to be quiet, still and listen. I am so grateful. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths, now go into the silence for at least 3 minutes.

Few words...great impact...

Someone I know has made her transition. I did not know her well, that is, we did not have great conversations. I do not know what she did for a living. I do not know how many brothers and sisters she has. She was a lady in her upper nineties. Her son use to bring her to church every Sunday. At that time, she was able to walk on her own. She was on his arm as though she was a Queen. I think she had to be. She (they, her and her son) got my attention. It looked so sweet and honorable. I even fantasized how I would feel on the arms of my son.

She always had such a beautiful and warm smile. She was a lady of few words. I never recall her in conversation with anyone. She was a quiet spirit. I could feel the love radiating from her. I did not try to force a conversation with her. I felt comfortable just being in her presence smiling at her and with her.

There were a few Sundays that I did not see her face. Although, this sweet woman did not say a lot, her presence was missed. Her son would give us, (the congregation) updates on her from time to time. Then last week she was taken to the hospital for a short stay and was returned home where she made her transition.

She will be missed. I know I will miss seeing her smiling face and her quiet demeanor. I shall hold this picture of her in memory.

Meditation: contemplate on, I am connected to everyone and everything in the Universe. Although the life form that I am use to seeing leaves the earth, it continues on its journey. I hold my love ones in my heart and memory. I am sending love throughout the Universe knowing it reaches everyone and everything.

Believe...act as if...live like you already have it...

I decided to give my granddaughter my old iPhone over a year ago. Her dad said to me, "I... do not have an iPhone". Her dad talked her into trading phones with him. Although, she agreed to this swap, she was not a happy camper. He also said at that time she could not have a working phone. Her dad took the phone and went to the phone store to get the phone updated and found out that he could replace my old iPhone with a new equivalent one for 99cents. Once he received his new phone, he returned the old phone back to me. 

When she comes to my house, I allow her to play games on the phone and she is delighted. I think this was all she needed to convince herself that this phone was indeed hers.

 I again told my granddaughter that the phone was hers and when her parents decide to allow her to have a phone, she could have this one. She tried to convince her parents to let her have the phone saying that all her friends have phones. Well, finally it is her turn. When her mother told me that she told my granddaughter that she could have a phone, it made me a happy grandmother. I realize the first phone she will own will be my old iPhone. I admitted to her mother that I was as excited about this birthday as my granddaughter. My granddaughter still does not know that she will be the proud owner of her own iPhone. She is finally going to have this iPhone that just keeps being passed around and returned back to me.

Today I went to a telephone store to activate the phone for my granddaughter. With her birthday coming up, this is the perfect present and the perfect time to give her the iPhone.
 
My granddaughter has been intrigued with my old iPhone for sometime now. She already claimed the old iPhone months ago when I got my new one. When she comes to my house she asks about the phone, referring to it as hers. She even told her two big brothers that she has an iPhone at her grandmother's house. She told me that her brothers laughed at her. She believes this and certainly acted as if and was living as though she had this phone. 

This gives me such pleasure to do this for my granddaughter. Her birthday is in two weeks and I went shopping for a gift bag, a card and bow to present this present to my granddaughter. I know this is going to be one of the best birthdays for me and my granddaughter. It is nothing like giving someone something they really, really want.

Meditation: contemplate on, I believe and act as if and live as though I have all that I need. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths and then go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

I seek others with faith...

5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
7 And Jesus said unto him, I will come and heal him.
8 ...but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me; and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this,  and he doeth it.    Matthew 8: 5-9



How many times have we had a belief about something that we want but our faith seems to quiver? We are a community and we are to support each other, especially in truth.

Do seek out another person who knows the truth about you and join with them to strengthen your faith. It seems to me that is what the story of the Centurion and his servant was about. The Centurion knew his power and said to Jesus that Jesus could speak the word from where he was and his servant would do it, that is, heal.

Jesus affirmed with the Centurion and the servant was healed. We are not alone. If my faith is not firm yet I know I have faith, I seek out someone who knows the truth about me or my family member and working through community, a healing takes place.

We are in times where we can not do anything by ourselves. We live in communities and we must seek and join with those of us who are of great faith for truth and the good of all concerned.

Meditation: contemplate on, with my faith, I seek others with faith and together through community, I expect a healing to take place. Take 3 deep breaths and then, go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran

Self Forgiveness Prayer...

Giving without expectation...

Act without expectation. Lao  Tzu

The Creative Medium or the Law of Mind is at work all the time. Whatever you think (negatively or positively) will manifest into your reality especially if  there is feeling attached to the thought. We also know that Cause and Effect is at work in the Universe.

If our actions are good then we will receive good circumstances in our lives. If we understand these laws then we may want to do as much good as possible.

We give freely and not just to receive. Kindness is a natural part of our being. Giving, serving and doing good for others is something that comes natural to us. If giving is natural then we should not look for what we will gain from giving. If we are not giving freely, we probably do not understand the laws of the universe. Once we do understand the law, we give freely and without expectation. Giving in this way reaps joy and fulfillment to the giver.

Meditation: contemplate on, I give without expectation. All my needs are taken care through Source that lies within me. Take 3 deep cleansing breaths, now go into the silence for at least 3 minutes. Lovely LadyFran
