You're Valuable Because You Exist


From the beginning of time your essence has existed. Whether it was in spirit form or now in your physical form you have always been and always will be.

There is a reason why your Creator decided to make you eternal. It’s because you’re worthy. You’re valuable.

You’re valuable not because of what your job title is, how much money you have, what kind of clothes you wear, or even the color of your skin.

You’re valuable because you have always existed in some form.

The very earth from the time it was formed was getting ready for you. Every piece of dirt, every mineral, every animal, every drop of water, every flower, has been getting ready for you. Every tree, every lake, and every farm has been created to support and love you.

Knowing that you are supported by every living being is what your heart has always known.

You know that what I write is true.

Your heart knows that you are the precious result of billions of years of evolution.

Evolution is still ongoing because there will be many others after your physical body leaves this realm. But that will not be the end of you. You will go on to your next adventure.

I have a neighbor who has stage four cancer. He may not be here for long on this physical plane. I prayed for him this morning. I prayed because I imagine being in his body right now is extremely difficult.

Someday he will be released from his pain. I don’t wish death on him. I wish peace on him.
This is the experience for us all. None of us will leave this physical plane alive but will be forever alive in the spirit.

This is the joy of being alive. It is knowing that we have always been alive and always will be.

This affirmation of my eternal nature gives me great comfort as I also go through the trials of this earthly realm. In those moments of stress and fear I remember the eternal nature of my soul. I’m not just alive in body, but I’m alive in spirit. And my spirit lives on forever, so I never need to be in fear of this body leaving.

My body will leave, but my spirit will live on.

From this vantage point could there possibly be anything that you couldn’t face. Even the most painful and difficult of circumstances can be comforted when we realize that our trials will not last forever.

Like you, I have been through many situations that cause me to question why life even exists at all. Why are we here? Why was life even created? What is life?

Yes, I ask these questions. Sensitive empaths do that sort of thing.

And, the answer that comes to me is one of divine peace.

The answer that comes to me is that we are here to love. We are here to love ourselves and our brothers and sisters.

From the vantage point of love, we can remember that we are as brilliant and amazing as our Creator said we are.

From this place of peace and love we can affirm that being alive is beautiful. We can affirm that our spirit will live forever, and that our lives have value.

We are valuable because we were created.

We can never lose that value.

It is eternal just like we are.

You Deserve To Be Supported

The pr ocess of writing my book has been so interesting. So many opportunities for me to look at myself and the way that I approach things. One of the most interesting opportunities is the one around the ability to say that I don't understand something. This brings me to what I wanted to  write about here.  That is this false belief that I should be able to know something before I know it. Yes, I read that sentence and say that doesn't even make sense. But, how many of us have taken on a project thinking we should not be able to ask questions about it? It's like the person  (not that I have even done this:) who gets lost driving, but refuses to ask for directions. Truth is our GPS takes care of that most of the time, but there are still times we need to ask.  If the goal of doing a project is to get it done is to get it done, it just makes sense to ask questions. Right? Well, the inability to ask questions usually stems from deeper issues that cannot be just logica

Balancing the Need For Risk With the Need For Security

We as a society are always looking to something outside of ourselves to fix us. You can call it an addiction, envy, or restlessness. But, we all know what I'm talking about. It's the belief that if we could just be somewhere other than where we are then everything would be ok. Sometimes though when we get to wherever it is we think we should be, we will then want to be somewhere else. There is a tension between knowing that it's good for us to stay and commit to the situation at hand, and knowing that it is healthy to stretch and grow. How do we stay grounded and follow through with what is happening now, and yet still be willing to explore new and uncomfortable adventures? There is so much to be gained by staying where we are. We gain the satisfaction of seeing something through to the end. Whether that be a relationship, a job, or a dream that have had in mind for many years. The daily effort that it takes, and the willingness to be there for a relationship

The Holding Pattern Becomes a Blessing

Most of us have had the unpleasant experience of being on an airplane that has been put in a holding pattern as it approaches the airport. As a result of some delay at the airport you are coming into  you are made to circle the airport over and over again until it is safe to land. This experience can be very frustrating, especially if we have another connecting flight to get to. This experience of being put in a holding pattern shows up in our everyday life sometimes. There are delays. The check we were supposed to get didn't come in the mail on time. The car dealer you took your car to for repairs didn't get your car back in time. And, now you have to rent a car. In life there are literally thousands of delays that can frustrate us. This is life. It is a common trait of us humans to want to see things go smoothly. We don't like delays. And, even some of us (me included) will want to take these delays personally. It is also my experience that delays can be an
