Holidays got you down?

Just One Thing

Just One Thing

 

There is just one thing I want this Christmas time.  It's the same thing I really want every day of my life.  It's the reason people commit suicide, when they don't feel they have it.  It's the reason people sing songs of Joy!  It's the fundamental thing that keeps the wheels of progress moving forward, regardless of the economics of the day and age.

When we have a feeling of love in our hearts for even one other being on the planet, we can find within us the drive, the motivation, yes-the spirit, to move our mountains!  We may have to crawl up them inch by inch, yet we will continue to do so when we are motivated to help someone we love.

Perhaps we've lost someone so dear to us that our heart is breaking.  Remembering that there are still people here that have been put in our lives for a reason, can help us to pick ourselves up and get back on the road we are meant to travel.  While it may not be a quick success, it's surely a start!

So many people today are feeling the weight of the times of the day.  The lack of jobs, the lack of caring, the sudden on-rush of stress can bring us to our knees, at a time that can truly help bring us together, if we will choose to focus on love, rather than fear. In spite of the pressures we may face, the pain we may be feeling, the obstacles we have run into, we always have a choice.  Choosing to deal with each day, with an attitude of Love, or Fear.

I'm not here to tell you that it's an easy thing.  It's not always easy to choose Love when everything around you seems to be screaming FEAR!  

So this Christmas, I want just one thing.  For those near and dear to me to show a little Love.  For my friends, yes, you are included, to try to show a little more love, and a little less competition for the brass ring.  

At the end of your days, do you truly want to be focusing on the things you wish you had said or done rather than cherishing the final moments of a life well lived?  From my limited perspective, a life well lived includes sharing the love we have within us in whatever place we may have landed.  You are there for a reason, it's no accident or coincidence that you are in that place, at this time and under these circumstances.  Your Guides know full well what the next step is for you, and I can assure you with 100% certainty that it involves a path of love.  For they do not, none of them, wish you to focus on fear.  

Sometimes we need a reminder, it's not that we aren't aware of the fact that our days are limited.  It's more often the fact that we are doing the best we can, with what we have,  for those in our closest circle of family or friends.  We tire easily and we hunger for something, yet we're so involved in our sphere of influence that we cannot always step outside the bubble we are so used to living in, to see it.

There is only one thing worth living for and it's the same thing many are dying for, while fighting for our freedom, in whatever way they may be doing so.  It is the right to share love.  When you get right down to it, it's not a matter of Gay, Straight, Rich, Poor, Humble or Forthright.  It's a matter of having the right to share love in a reasonably comfortable way with those that we care for.  When we put ourselves first, we are doing what nature intended; and when we remember that by loving ourselves, we can recover the strength to be able to reach out a hand to help someone who is hurting.... we have found another way to express love.

 Perhaps you have love in your life and you're wondering why this is even an issue for anyone.  "Let them find their own" some say.  In the end, we are all connected.  Our energies intertwine, and our collective consciousness incorporates all that is, and we create our situations, our circumstances and bring others into our lives for reasons of learning, sharing and caring.

So this Christmastime, I wish for one thing.  That everyone in my sphere tries just a little bit more, to remember that we're all in this together.  We're all one big family.  The Big Picture, if you will... is what I'm shooting for.  We're truly not alone, not even you.  You were led to this blog for a reason.  Perhaps that's what you need, a little kick-start out of yourself and back into the Spirit of the Season!

Remember, it's the "Spirit" of the Season that makes it special.  Not whether you are celebrating the Birth of Christ or even believe that there was such a person.  Some of my closest friends are not Christians, yet act with such a great love for one another in their day to day lives, that I wonder if they met the man themselves!  You cannot buy love from an institution, you can only find it by sharing it.

Blessings, with Great Love in Spirit my friends....

Pay Attention?

Sometimes our Guides and Angels will do just about anything to get our 

attention... are you noticing????

When you're sure of your dream, tell the world to step back and Watch You Shine!

I don't suppose there are many people who haven't at one time or another felt as though their dream was impossible.  It's built into the psyche to check ourselves.  Some of us, more than others, are hard on ourselves.  We've "bought in" to the system that tells us we're not good enough.  Maybe we've been knocked down a few dozen times by life and are finding it harder to get up again.  Whether the knock downs seems small, or beyond the size of mountains, it's our inner selves that we need to re-connect with at these times.  

To find the strength to get up again after a great loss, it's helpful to focus on what we have left.  What is it that is still in your sphere of influence that is truly important?  Who is left in your spiritual family that keeps you going?  I'll be talking about this on my first Blog Talk Radio Show in the next few months... I hope you'll listen, it's of great importance to my Spiritual Path!

For now, I feel compelled to share this simple message...

The things that make you feel like dancing... are "it".

It can be people, something you really enjoy doing, a dream you've put on the back-burner.

Focus on asking your Guides and Angels to show you how to expand on those things

and make your path clearer.

I can't promise you the world, but I do promise you this... if you do this, with sincerity, and follow through on the thoughts of how you can.... rather than why you cannot; nothing can stop you!

Don't wait until it's too late, start living your dreams today!  It's your life, no circumstance can hold you back forever, they can only delay you a bit.  As they say "Where there's a will, there's a way!"

Blessings!

I've Gotta be Me!

While we prepare for All Hallows Eve, Halloween, The Feast of the Dead, All Saints Day, or if you prefer.... the transition to November and the change of the clocks... 

May we consider this thought.  In spite of what's going on around us in our lives, we have great love on the other side from "lost" loved ones, that are never really lost.


They want nothing less than for us to become who we are, to the greatest possible experience of whatever that means for us.

When we veer off track a bit, we are given signs from spirit.  Some, in the form of our own emotional responses and reactions to what is going on.  Some, from other venues, perhaps a message from a psychic such as myself, or a friend who has a dream, or simply strange things that seem to be telling us something, even though "It couldn't possibly be more than coincidence!".

I know that I do not need to pray for the souls of my loved ones.  They are in the light.  It is they, that I pray will continue to share a ray or two of light with me, when I find myself in the shadows.  Just as I pray that you may also see a ray of light from the other side, from your guides and Angels or your loved ones, when you are in the darkness in your lives.

Whatever you choose to do, may your path be filled with Light, Love and the Fullest Expression of that which you prefer to be.  

Don't take a second for granted.  Don't waste much time on regret, you cannot change the past.  Do what you can, with what you have, remembering that the highest of emotions are Love and Joy.  If you're not feeling the love, then ask the Spirits and your Angels for help.  I can assure you, that they do hear you.  Your Angels cannot interfere without your requests, except in cases of trying to prevent danger, and so it's very important that you ask for them to help you with inspiration as well!

As we move forward on this path of Great Spiritual Change, let us remember that we are not alone in the darkness, we need only ask and wait while we move forward.... and take one another's hands and hearts for a while to share the Journey.

All the Good that we Do Today, will come forward with us....\

Blessings,

Soulful connections with our loved ones, Spirits, Ghosts and such.

Most of us who have lost loved ones in horrific ways never imagined it could or would happen to them.  We never imagined that our lives would change in that moment forever, never to feel the same.  

When we lost our daughter to suicide, our household changed, our lives changed, everything changed.  We learned more about stigma than the average person who lives a life of duality would ever think possible, and I've got plenty of friends in that category.  The unquestionable issue for me personally is that she did cross over to the other side.  There was no "purgatory" and other loved ones that crossed over were there to meet her.  

When Mike and Joyce had their death experience, they too crossed over.  On this side, there were questions that never were answered due to lack of evidence.  But on that side, Joyce sits with Angels and Michael is at peace.  They've sent more than a few messages of love to us in appreciation for our help and to let us know that they are okay.

Loosing a child is indeed one of the most difficult things to bear in life.  It does go against nature and we, the parents and her siblings left on this side, live every day with her in our hearts.  When a recent death in the community involved a young person tragically taken, we immediately thought of the pain her family will endure.  My love and prayers were at once sent out.  

The average person looks at the media, chats about what happened and unfortunately passes some form of judgement as to why, how or perhaps maybe this is what really happened.  For the family, the Moms, Dads, Cousins, Brothers, Sisters, Children... it's the last thing we're thinking of really.  Part of us feels like we died inside.  And without some connection to them after they have crossed over, some of us cannot get past the moment and move forward.

As the Titanic was sinking, and survivors were watching, while they were most probably very grateful for their lives, wouldn't you feel extreme sadness for those that could not be in the boat with you?  I've posted the song "Ghosts" from Kansas here not only because it's one of my favorites but because this footage is real from that event.  Maybe it will help you connect with this topic.  Maybe you don't need this because you live with it daily.

I offer my services as a Psychic-Medium to help others to find peace, to have that moment, where they "know" they have received a message from their loved one.  That symbol, message, thing... that only they and their loved one knew about... more often than not, is what turns the skeptic into a possibility thinker on the issue of connecting with the other side.  

There are some, as in every field, that will offer you hope yet you are left wondering why you ever went there, it was ridiculous and you wasted your time and money.  Yes, there are those.  

I will not tell a parent, child, loved one something that the Spirit World does not send through me to them.  I will, however, give you every ounce of my being in my connection with the other side to allow their message to come through to you.  It is will great love and appreciation for my Guides, Angels and all on the other side that I am here for you.

When you are ready to ask a question or two or three, of those on the other side, that you feel deeply is needed by you, please contact me for an email reading.  I'm not presently available in other modes due to my schedule, yet rest assured that I go into deep meditation.  I know full well how important this may be for you.  

If you are looking for the other side to offer you a daily revelation of communication to a loved one, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed.  The reality is that while they can and do visit us, watch us, and try to send us messages, they have their own paths and work to do on the other side.  

The "Ghosts" however, are those that have not yet crossed over to the other side.  They do not need to come back to send a message or the knowingness that they are here with us, for they have never left this plane of existence.  It's sad to me, that these souls have not crossed over, some due to fear of what the other side holds... some for other reasons.  So when you consider hunting them down, please be respectful.  They were living breathing human beings as well, just as you and I are, and some are in extreme pain or fear.  Communicating with them, or with those from the other side, should always, in my opinion, be given respectfulness.  

This season of October we are mindful of Ghosts and Goblins.  Personally, I'm quite mindful of the fact that we are not alone, never have been, and never will be.  Whilst we may not be able to touch them or see them, most everyone deep down is fascinated at least, by the possibility of life after death.  

Life is energy.  Energy transmutes, it does not die.  And so shall it be.

Blessings to you, the Mom, the Dad, the Lover, Wife, Husband, Sister, Brother, Son or Daughter, etc., that is missing the peace of the puzzle of their family that will never be replaced.  I wish you peace... of mind and more importantly, that your spirit will regain strength to find your next purpose in this lifetime. 

You are here for your own reasons... our loved ones, our Guides and our Angels care deeply for us and want us to live our lives to the fullest that we are able, and most will help us where they can.

Peace...

Celebrate Autumn with Spirited!

Everything Happens For a Reason...

This is dedicated to the seekers....

May you not take anything for granted

May you have the patience you need

to follow the mysterious path of your life

knowing there are hidden meanings and miracles behind many things.

Follow your dreams with strength from within

knowing this moment is yours to use as you wish.

Blessings are oft hidden in the most unusual places.

Knowing comes from odd experiences that have turned into majesty.

Happiness is how we choose to feel, despite what happens to us.

We are feeling beings and as such, we will feel a range of emotions broader than the 

scale of a grand piano and the grandest of accompaniment.

May you choose to use all of the notes, whether sweet or sour, 

to orchestrate your works so that you are ultimately pleased.

No-one needs hear the tunes that you hold in your heart... 

unless you choose to share them.  Yet...
know that you are far from alone on your journey.
Your Guides and Angels are with you to help and heal, guide and 
nudge you along. 


Although you are in a plentiful crowd you can still feel so alone.
Know that the unseen forces are with you,
loved ones that have crossed over, your Angels and Guides.

Patience is critical during stormy seas,
Mindfulness is something we can find presently at the snap of our fingers.
Spiritual Strength can be given you at the asking...

Just ask...

Blessings, 

Karla

Suicide Prevention LIFELINE!

http://www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org

I believe in keeping it short and simple.  I want you to live your life to the fullest!  What's so different about this prevention hotline?  Read the following I received today...
One friend wrote me: 

"I have used the hotline the other day due to issues I'm having and they were so helpful and have called me every so often to check in which is nice. Thank you for posting it!"

Blessings to you,

Karla

Healing Moments

May we draw from the strength deep within us, be guided to the healing waters of music to restore our emotions to their highest plane and know that in the end, when we return from Mother Earth to beyond the Veil, we will once again be whole. Blessings of Peace, Love and Healing. This is a very healing piece, I'm blessed to have encountered it, and the images are beautiful as well. Living in Love.... ♥

The warrior within you

Warriors come in many forms, shapes and with varying intensities.  When we feel beaten down it can be difficult to imaging getting back up again.  I tell you that is the time to remember...

You are a miracle in every way possible.  Your physical self is not constructed of building blocks from the store, your history in this lifetime is uniquely yours and the relationships that you may feel are lost forever are never truly lost.

There may come a time when you return to that state of strength, indeed it will most likely come sooner rather than later.  For now, be aware that even the strongest of those considered to be warriors have tread paths that are full of thorns.   Even they, have had doubt, for they were human.

Be strong from within, with the knowledge that we are all one.  Step back from those that seek to define you as anything other then amazing, understanding that they can only see through the lens that is currently theirs.  

It takes one step, then another and yet another, to climb a mountain.  One rarely makes a single leap to get to the top, for if they do, they missed the entire point of the journey.

Your journey, your lifetime, your story....

Please enjoy this most lovely and inspiring of videos...

Blessings,

Spirited Daydreams 

Finding the connection to your loved ones

Finding the connection to your loved ones

You may have been led here by "coincidence", if you prefer a comfortable term for now. While we know that each of us will also die one day, the daily reminders of our dear ones absence can be more painful for some than others.  The circumstances of their departure from us can make the memories of their time with us cloudy at times for some. This does not mean that you feel any less for them, quite the contrary.  In fact, I'm thinking it's just the opposite. The holidays when their special magic is missing leave a whole in your heart.  Watching children grow and become adults, when one of yours is missing, leaves a special spot in our hearts that no-one else can fill.   We miss them daily, weekly, monthly, for ourselves, for our children that are still here and we wonder what it would be like if they were still here.   We learn to adjust, yet the loss never ends.

Parents, Lovers, Friends and life-long supporters must leave us as well and while we know that this is a normal event, to us can feel anything but normal.  Loosing the support and daily knowing of those that seemed to care most about us can feel like an empty hole.  And so we yearn to connect with them, to know that they are okay, to feel once again, their love.  We can deny it, but that feels to many of us as though we are denying their lives, and some of us, yours truly included, cannot fathom that. We'd rather face the pain of the loss than to deny they ever lived by ignoring it, once we get past the shock.

Yes, psychic readings can help us get the connection that some need, if they feel we are ready for it.  For others, it may be a different knowing that is needed.  We need to know ourselves, we need to feel them, to dream about them, to receive a sign, if you will, ourselves, of their involvement in our lives, even after their passing.  We may draw on life events and continue learning from them well after they "leave us".

I have a question for you that I do not need the answer to, but you may...

Why is it that we don't think that there is help for us on the other side when those we love so dearly are there as well as our Guides and Angels?  Don't you think that, even though they have jobs to do on a higher plane, that they might have a bit of a spark of energy to send us, even if just in the form of an idea or a memory, that might help us in our time of need? Do we really think that we ourselves alone, inspire all that we imagine?  

So reach out to them! 

Talk to them once in a while.... yes.... they do hear you.  And notice those little unusual things that happen, and rather than discounting them as strange, consider that it takes great love and energy to have these things happen so that you have a sign just from them... a gift of love.  And if you're more concerned with what others think of you than you are with the sign they are sending you... you have your answer as to why you do not feel them... you just aren't ready, and that, is okay.

Live on... in Love and Reach Out!

Blessings,

Karla

Gratitude

Simply wonderful!  Please, enjoy this beautiful reminder of the gifts we have every day!

This is dedicated to everyone who is in repair. It's the brave souls that admit their tragedies to help those of us that need to know we aren't alone that deserve the credit for being the band-aids... along with our Guides and Angels who do everything they can to help us! ♥

Thank you Megan.... 

Defend yourself or...

There are passages in one's life that involve denial of things that we do not understand because we cannot feel, hear, see, smell or touch it. This does not mean it does not exist, only that we are not ready to comprehend it. 

Very often, the thing we may deny most adamantly, can bring us the most in return. An attitude of gratitude for having this discomfort in our sphere of life is essential, so

 that we look past the resistance have and get to the business of finding what it has to do with our path. 

Perhaps it's in your path for personal growth, for acceptance of other's that we encounter, or to realize we really do not have all the answers to everything.

And then again, we always have the choice to shut it out, it's our choice.

Integrity speaks of intellect, wisdom and the ability to discern what our actions or words do to everyone we encounter. 

There is nothing to gain, it has been said, by fighting a war with an unarmed opponent, for you cannot educate someone who is closed off. Only when they seek answers, will they find them.

You go your way, I'll go mine... and if we meet along the way, may we have learned to share the knowledge that in the end, we are of the same human race, on the same planet earth, here to experience what we came to... and that is truly unique to each individual.

The Great Spirit needed your version of experience to fulfill the experience of the whole!

Do it your way... and they'll do it theirs....

May we learn, and relearn when needed, to be patient with ourselves and with others

as we move ahead in the expansion of who we are, and by learning who we are not!

Karla/Spirited Daydreams

Looking beyond the physical

Back To Basics, and Beyond

Perhaps part of why we suffer in daily life is that we, collectively, have progressed by leaps and bounds in the means of technology yet, have overlooked the simplicity of the basics that many of our forefathers learned and indeed tried to pass down to us. The other side of the coin is that you learned from your forefathers and are rejecting all of it because part of what they passed on to you was more than uncomfortable for you.

There is a place within you that no-one can hurt.  It's time to take you there, the other side beckons.  It's time for you, collectively, to seek that which society begs to heal, promising the moon, and never delivering.  It cannot deliver this, as it is of the earth, rather than from the eternity from whence we all come.  

Spirituality is at least:

 Going within:  Allow yourself to feel from the depths of your soul.  Trusting your self enough to feel from there, rather than the popularity tests.

Practicing: (notice the word is "practicing", not preaching) What your highest feelings are able at the moment. In the practicing of your highest feelings you reinforce to the Universe that you wish for your life to include those feelings.

Sharing:  What you give out, comes back, not necessarily in the form you let it go in, and not necessarily from the same direction that you think it may.  Karma is oft misunderstood.  There is Karma, but it is not limited as one may think and your ability as the creator in your own life dominates this principle.

Spirit is who you are, not only who you will be when you die!

The message is emphatic.  It seems there are multitudes of people who believe that they need to "earn points" so that when they die, they will go to Heaven. I've been asked to mention with "great emphasis" that is absolutely untrue!

The name "Spirited Daydreams" was given me by my Guides for a reason... I'm quite "Spirited" and my gift comes through my daydreams.  I hadn't intelligently thought of this, it came to me as I was asked to open up to the public and use this as my site-name, etc. This being said, please be aware that some of what I say may be uncomfortable for some to hear, however, I am here.... for that reason.  If we always hear what we wish to hear, we will never learn anything new, and sometimes, that is the key that unlocks your heart!

You Are Still Alive Without Your Body.  Not in the sense that we experience it with our five senses, but consider that whilst emotions can be explained scientifically, spirit is beyond what science is yet able to conclusively explain, yet emotions are within our sphere in order to help us follow our true selves (spirit).

No organization, person, place or thing can take that away from you, nor gift it to you.  They may, however help you awaken to the reality that at your core, you are just as able to bring to your experience all the magic that you are able to conceive of, as any movie might show with great effects, and in reality, so much more than that!  Your very existence on this plane is evidence of this, yes?

Getting back to basics: 

Remembering who you are:

 Spirit living inside a body from which you can indeed travel and do, regularly without knowing more often than not. 

Trusting your feelings to guide you:

 Right and Wrong may be subjective terms, yet what right for you feels joyful and lasting, not in the as a short term love affair, but more as if you accidentally bumped into the answer you were looking for all along!

Listen to the voice within:

  There is nothing higher than this!  We are ALL connected in this fashion, to one another, to all-that-is, to source, etc.  It is the speech of the soul, if you will.  To ignore it on the basis of what can be explained as providing evidence of reality is to assume that the ability to analyze the evidence is up to the standards of what the Universe can provide.   

Most of all, be open to change, for that is reality.  Your reality changes as you change and what you focus on is drawn into your reality as well.

Back to Basics... and I personally urge you to consider to include Love.  

Blessings!
