Spring Storms - and Washing Away the Debris

Storm growling through the town,

Looking for a place to land.

Water pouring down in large heavy drops,

Clearing, cleaning, flushing, flooding.

Look, the wind throws it's weight around -

moving nature's furniture to it's new spot,

Indifferent to the cries of joy, alarm, esctasy!

Storm growling through the town,

Looking for a place to land.

This April has brought many spring storms through our neighborhood, tearing up trees, buildings and scaring the crap out of most everybody.  I don't know what to say to many of you who are still cowering and shaking because of the still looming storms that are heading our way... Take cover, perhaps? 
My dog and I are hanging out in the upper level of our house.  Enjoying the weather... she and I have always enjoyed listening to and viewing the wonderful glory of a full-on thunderstorm!  I wish that I could share that wonder with those of you who are afraid.  But I can't, so I send you love and calming thoughts;  take ease, it will be all right in the end. 
I see the chaos of this season as a clearing out of the old and the making way for the new.  The spring has always been a time of renewal.  But you have to get rid of the old stuff first, sorry! So, now to use this analogy for my own life.. what am I willing to get rid of to make room for the new things that are just on the other side of the door for me?   Good question! And one that I cannot answer for myself at this time.  I have delegated that decision to my higher self to deal with... easy way out?  You betcha!  But I believe that the things that are leaving will be for my highest good, and will be good healthy choices!  I just want to ride out the chaos and roll into the calm after the storm... when you come out of hiding and see all the clearing and cleaning up that needs to be done to make way for the new growth. 
I had originally thought that this post would be about growing and green things.  I had just finished the post from Dahlis Roy on Out of the Blue, and really enjoyed the reading and thought processes.  But then the storm began its song (and dance!) and distracted me.  So please enjoy the reading and the storm!  I hope the new growth that comes after the clearing out will be to your liking... after you finish the clean up and step back to view the new visions in front of you.

Waiting, Watching....Receiving by Patricia Seay Dollar

I have advised the universe of my wishes, wants, desires.... and now I stand back and allow - sometimes impatiently, I might add, as I eagerly hold out my hands, and open my heart to receive the gifts.   I always ask with the addendum to Spirit, "... for my highest good, and for the highest good of all involved..." And I always get my answer... always.  And so I now release my requests, and ... allow. 

Thank you.

Letters about Lessons by Patsy

Today I sat down and wrote a letter to my oldest son.  I told him:  "Distance yourself from the shoulda, coulda, woulda's and look at what the lesson is." 
Hmmm.  How many of us have ever been able to take a step back and look at the lessons of our day?  Not many, I'm guessing.  But I think that many of us might want to take that step back and take a look at what we just finished with and how it affected us and our lives.  Some things will be delicious and juicy and easy to learn, while others are a bitter brew that we concocted for ourselves.  Things are not always easy to let go of and step back from either.  I'm getting better at it, but only because I keep telling myself to breathe - let it go and breathe!  I tell a lot of other people that too!  Not sure that they always appreciate it, as they are usually in the throes of drama, but I still mouth the words at them...

So, word for the day?  Let go of the conga line of shoulda-coulda-woulda, and breathe! 
Now lets see me take my own advice! 


The light of our day is softly dimming,
The lessons have been taught.
Shake them out and examine the patterns!
Oh lovely, lovely patterns....
Bittersweet.


Living in Love and Light, with all of you!

Missing you....thoughts shared by Patsy

Do you ever feel lost and alone... like your best friend isn't listening anymore?  I know that I am not alone.. and I have not lost my best friend, but with the movement of the planets or the fluctuations of the vibrational fields or something... I am not on the same frequency any longer.  In the midst of all this vibrational change, I am not making contact with my surrounding folkes.  I see them.  They see me.  But the connection feels broken.  This is a sad state of affairs.  Makes me wonder if I have misspoken, or pushed away.... something must be broken! 
Spring is here!  The birds are singing and I can hear them - feel their joy at the warmth of the day and the beauty of the moment!  I feel it, and yet I don't share it.  Is this burnout?  Is the vibration going to shift?  What can I do to reconnect to the ones that I love? 
I am hanging on to my sanity. 
I am walking in my shoes. 
I am here. 
Where are you?

once again,
Living in Love and Light,

Patsy

Tuesday Thoughts to Share from Patsy

"You, who make angels stutter and mystics moan - congratulations for being here so well. It's not an easy gig, this thing called life. In fact, it's quite the ass-kicking experience. But oh, how you're living brilliantly anyway.  Even when you think you've failed, the Universe stands in awe of you. Even when you forget who you are, blades of grass long to rub up against you. Even when you hide your gifts, the air aches to breathe you. In. Thank you for existing so perfectly." - Sera Beak

These words are from one of my favorite authors, Sera Beck.  She is one hot diva goddess with a very potent pen!  She is now assisting in manifesting a REVEAL Conference this spring (May actually!) in New York City with Urban Zen. ( http://www.urbanzen.org/events/reveal-womens-conference-2011/ ) 
I would love to go myself... and wanted to share with you!  But what caught my eye first are the awesome words of Sera Beck.  Check out her book, The Red Book and look for her soon to be published  Redvolution .
I'll share more with you soon! 

Living in Love and Light!
