On dealing with the horrors that we see daily

Boy oh boy, did that energetic shift, we all just went through, push some over the edge.  The horror that is currently roaring around all over the internet, with respect to the elementary school shooting this morning, has everyone connecting on a very deep level.  We are all feeling the effects of that lone gunman and his rampage.  So much despair for such a young man.  What is the world coming to we all say.....again.

I know that I have been severely tested this past year but, luckily for me, I am moving away from my own despair and feeling stronger for it.  Again I say, I am SO lucky.  I am able to express my pain through words and with the help of others who are also going through their own brand of crap.  And this is what we all need to be doing these days.  Sharing our fears and pain with others if only for the blessing of having someone to bounce things off of.  It is not so much that we are looking for solutions through the efforts of others but more so through our own intuition and our own truths.

We are all being guided to sift through our beliefs about what our world is all about.  Our own trials are interconnected with those of others the world over and as such, our trials are mirroring those of many other Souls in every part of the world.  We need to be diligent in dealing with our lives in a way that is aligned with love and compassion for others, not fear and disgust as so many are doing.

Remember to take time daily to be in gratitude for all the gifts you are bestowed with - the small and the large.  The simple things in life - family, friends, the beauty of nature, life in general.  Of course there are many who are hurting in a very real way and it is up to those of us who are managing to move forward, to be there for those who are having a harder time.  We have others who are there for us when we reach out so it is time for payback.  We have to be there for another in times of need, knowing that we will receive all we need when in our own more trying times.

For today, I am intending to stay in my own truth, believing in the goodness of my fellow man/woman.  I will not allow distrust to taint my view of reality.  Today is a good day and I choose to stay in that mindset.

May your lessons boost you to the next level of consciousness.  I send you all love and blessings on your journey.

Namaste.
