White Balloons!

This is my fiftieth and final post! I will be leaving all posts here for any new comers who may wish to read them.

I want to thank every person who has followed my blogging; I appreciate your interest!!

In the future I hope to start a new Blog ... so please don't forget me!

I am very proud of my beautiful book 'White Balloons.' And most importantly, I am grateful that so many others are responding to it in such a positive way! It seems that some aspect of it's content is resonating with people in different parts of the world ... not just my own country. I see that this is because loss and grief are part of life, no matter where we come from.  My story is a common one and yes, there are many who have suffered so much more than me. However, I believe that I have offered the reader a new dimension.  I am able to give people insight from my real experiences with the divine ... and the knowledge that life continues on ...

Thank you,
from Jo St. Claire

Where The Magic Is ...

The key to happiness I have found is maintaining faith. That is keeping a positive mindset despite the odds!!

I thought that I had it all sorted out, and then would slip back into the old pattern ... you know ... the negative one!

Well it has finally dawned on me that the only way to keep happy is to be happy! As you would know from reading my posts, it has been quite a journey for me with lots of learning along the way... now finally I am clear.

I had an epiphany this morning after giving myself a pity party. It is very rare that I have occasion for this anymore. However I did ... and then I noticed how it made me feel. I felt lethargic and mopey, and then noticed my throat was sore. I must have a cold coming on, I thought. Oh poor me!! Then everything wonderful that has happened for me slipped away... and that which was yet to manifest  seemed an impossible dream ...

Then I stepped outside and gazed at the beauty around me. The sun was warm and shining down lifting the coldness of the winter morning, and the colours of the flowers and trees. I gazed at the sun and imagined we were one, and I was shining. I felt so much better and then it came to me ... when ever I thought in a negative way the world looked dark ... because that is how I looked at it from my inner self. But when I was thinking positively again, I was in alignment with the higher realms, and this is where I want to stay ... because this is where the magic is. This is the place where dreams are made into reality ...

By the way I am feeling great - my sore throat has gone. It is amazing how the mind affects the body??
