“Know the difference between ego and spirit. Ego is needy, but spirit is not.” – Deepak Chopra: The Path To Love

Yesterday, I was faced with comments about my life from someone that I found terribly difficult to ignore. The comments were rude and hurtful and I was vulnerable and open to taking it personally.
As the day wore on, I was reminded by a dear friend to heed Don Miguel Ruiz’s The Four Agreements. In that, the episode was a lesson in remembering the 2nd agreement: Don’t Take Anything Personally:
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be victim of needless suffering.
While I try to live by The Four Agreements daily, some days I must say, are simply easier than others. (more…)

The creative soul creates from the heart. Always… The greatest gift for the creative soul is the presence of a muse… That which inspires is love.
“I recognize that art begins in the heart. I love my creative nature and I love expressing it. I create as an act of love and connection. I allow the Universe to dream through me, to create through me.” – Julia Cameron – Heart Steps: Prayers and Declarations for a Creative Life
I remind myself this day and every day… I am abundant, I have love.
Namaste… Pamela

We all have our sacred places… This is one of my most sacred…
“A place becomes the sacred ground
of my being only when I have tended
and enjoyed it long enough for each
spot and inhabitant to have a rich
history of associations and stories.”
– Sam Keen: Hymns To An Unknown God

Relationship lessons are often the hardest ones to get. Try as I may, sometimes it is so difficult to not take things personally. But our reaction to someone else’s actions is often what causes us the most pain. Over time I have tried to move past an issue I have with reaching to people I care about who are going through a tough time and having them not respond. What is most difficult to justify in my mind is knowing that it matters to me when loved ones reach out to me when I am going through a tough time. I treat people as I want to be treated. Alas, we are not all the same. So, I try to remember this lesson…
“Look to see what you are being,
doing and having in any given
moment, not what’s going on with
another. It is not in the action
of another, but in your re-action,
that your salvation will be found.”
– Neale Donald Walsch

I often imagine there are faeries as I walk through the woods and fields or along the rivers and streams. The fae folk show themselves to those who believe…
“Faeries, come take me out of this dull world,
For I would ride with you upon the wind,
Run on the top of the dishevelled tide,
And dance upon the mountains like a flame.”
― W.B. Yeats, The Land of Heart’s Desire
