Making Sense of Things.

I find that more and more I am making sense of things. It has taken some time, but gradually the pieces of the puzzle are fitting together.

What I find though, is when one question is answered another follows ... and sometimes many come pouring out. It is an ongoing process, but gradually I am getting to the bottom of it.

I am talking about life of course! I have wanted the answers for so long but there is so much to know, and it takes time. I found another piece to the puzzle on the weekend. It was one of those synchronistic happenings ----

A close friend had told me that she had found a movie dvd at a local market; and after watching it thought it would be right up my alley. I viewed it on the weekend, and absolutely agreed!! The movie was from Shirley MacLaine's book "Out On A Limb"(written some years ago now.) I am sure that I must have read it back then, but obviously it didn't resonate with me like it does now!

I could completely identify with it ... well ... almost ... and in the end I did! I found an answer to a question, and now I have no doubt! Thank you Shirley MacLaine for setting me straight!

As I have said before ... we are all on our own paths. I am simply so grateful, to have discovered what I have ... and I am still learning ...

Being Honest With Ourselves ...

I have found that being honest with myself is paying off! I look deep inside and see what is there. If I see that I have been telling others that everything is fine and it is not ... I admit it! And if I feel that I have disrespected another in what I have said to them - I can be honest with myself, and apologise. And if I feel that I have been unfairly treated  by another person ... then I tell them. This is done in a mutually respectful way of course.

And if I see that I am frustrated with anything in particular, I admit it to myself and accept this is how I feel. Then I work on how I can change the situation that is causing me to feel like this.

I find it very helpful to talk openly and honestly with family members or close friends. They can listen and offer suggestions; which helps to clarify my feelings and emotions. But only I can choose the solution.

And I know how to solve issues now ... I ask my angels for guidance ... and a remedy comes quickly.
We need to be honest with ourselves and others - if we are to progress on the path to peace and harmony.

White Balloons Reaching Out To All!

I was inspired to write this post today by two young woman who I had contact with over Easter. One said that she was glued to my book White Balloons, and couldn't wait to read more. She said, and I quote, ' you can feel the emotions leaping out of the pages!' And the other young lady who works in a local book shop owned by her parents, told me that she had read 'White Balloons,' and that it was 'amazing.'

There have been other younger people who have given me similar, positive feedback. And I guess that I was rather surprised that my story would appeal to this age. But what I am finding is that adults of all ages and gender are reading my book, and it is appealing to them ... and  they are identifying with different aspects of it. (You may like to read my post, 'A Man Called Glen,' if you haven't already.)

And it seems my book is reaching people in different countries, and cultures. I think that is wonderful!

I want to reach as many people as I can ... all kinds of people who may benefit from reading my story. I have been told that my story is written in an easy to read style. I am sure this was meant to be ... as I have said I was guided with my writing ...

God Bless!!
