It's not always easy to love unconditionally. We love our friends, our family, our significant other, our partner, our furry family members. The roles we are put here to play sometimes require, or seem to, helping those we care for in ways that may not be comfortable for them; or us. Sometimes we try and it seems we've put so much out there only to find an empty chair.
Through each day moving forward in 2014... maybe we can be reminded from time to time that WE are loved unconditionally by All That Is, that while we make mistakes in our well meant efforts, when love is behind the effort, it all works out exactly the way it was meant to be.
The energy of love is pure, high, full of light and it shines down on the dark, fear-filled parts of our lives. Darkness is the absence of light.
What do you choose in 2014.... Fear? or Love? Anger stems from fear; acceptance from love. It's okay to go back and forth, we all do. We're human and we can choose again in any moment to experience the higher emotions and to share them.... as unconditionally as we are able to.
Forgiveness requires we are able to forgive ourselves as well.... be good to yourself. It's your life, your 2014 and your experience.

"When we recall Christmas past, we usually find that the simplest things - not the great occasions - give off the greatest glow of happiness." ~Bob Hope~
So I suppose that I "should" detest Christmas because our daughter committed suicide December 22nd. I don't.
I suppose that I "should" detest Christmas because the holidays remind me of her passing every year. They really don't... Every single day reminds me of that, not just Christmas.
I suppose that I "should" detest Christmas because it's no longer popular to say "Merry Christmas"... we're supposed to use other terms that do not offend anyone that does not share the same beliefs that "we" do. But I don't.
I suppose that I could go on and on and on with this list... Mike and Joyce left the world just after Christmas a few years ago... just a few weeks after their last Christmas, in a horrific way... and my little family and I trudged through the soot and the ruins to salvage little memories and to honor their lives as we loved them... they were family to us... and still are. My Dad, My Grandparents, My In-Laws, My Furry Family Members that I miss so much: Benjamin, Ling-Ling the first and the second, Serena, Dusty, Reggie, Dawn... so many, and each one has a part of my heart in my memories and in my soul.
Do I tear up (cry) at these thoughts? Yes... in fact as I type this I'm tearing up a bit... after all, I'm an empathic, Psychic Medium, a Human Being with extreme emotions that often has been told in her life that she's too thin-skinned (ha!).... but I wouldn't want it any other way.
Christmas... also reminds me of all of those people and the holiday memories we shared. It reminds me of the joy, the music, the caroling around the neighborhood with Dad playing his accordian and the clan trudging along singing and skipping down the streets. It reminds me of the midnight masses that the Seabury Choir sang so beautifully years ago and I was so honored to be a part of that joyful experience. It reminds me of Uncle Ted playing Silent Night on his Violin... he was my Violin teacher too.... I miss him. It reminds me of those lost, as it does you... but.... so much more!
Christmas is a land-mark to me. It's truly my checkpoint. It's where I stand before Jesus in my spirit and my Mother and Father God and my Guides and Angels and stand in their light yet again, just me... and them... and I get such strength from them, every single year.
I don't have to go to a church to do this... and these days, quite honestly I don't. I'm blessed to be able to connect with them whenever I need to and... to share my gifts with those that need me to help them.
Christmas is a time of Joy to me. Yes, I go present crazy, I love to give gifts to loved ones and to some friends and to share where I can with those in need. I don't have much, but over the years, whatever I could scrape together at Christmas... was to GIVE to others.
It's a time of GIVING. It's a time to also be able to graciously receive when we don't have much to give. That was a life lesson my Mother-In-Law Nancy taught me, thank you Mom! It was painful back then when I had almost nothing and she had so much and gave so much to our family. I was embarrased. But I finally learned... it was truly her JOY to help and give... and I so totally got that lesson that I pay it forward when I can!
So if you have trouble receiving... think of this... Someone has to be the Giver... and you know... Someone has to be able to Receive! It takes BOTH!
Christmas MUSIC is so close to heaven, so pure with energy and so clear and sparkling. Yes, there is Music in Heaven! Yes... the Angels Sing to you... yes, to YOU!
I don't often go here when I write a blog or do a radio show. I prefer to keep my personal opinions personal. My work is to help you, and I do not judge your beliefs, nor do I judge those that have no beliefs.... it's not my job to do that... I'm just a Messenger.... and I try to do that with love, to as many as possible.
So in closing I would like to share with you a piece I just discovered today. Every year I seek out a new Christmas Album and this year... this is it. The first tune on the Album is this, which is my favorite Christmas Song of all. Angels We Have Heard On High!!!
By the way... you probably know by now... I grew us Musical, went to College for Music Ed and play Piano, Violin and just about any instrument I pickup if I want to... so it's understandable why Music is so important to me. But it's more than that. Music truly has helped me connect with my Soul, my Spirit and my Guides when I have been at my lowest.
I pray and hope that you will find a bit of Joy this Christmas...
