Today, I release all fear about financial matters and I trust the Universe to provide. I re-mind myself that I am strong and confident, and I have faith in the Higher Power for my well being. – Pamela J. Leavey

My life is rich and full of abundance and joy. I am blessed with prosperity and abundance all around me in every aspect of life. I trust in the universe to provide each and every day. ~ Pamela J. Leavey

Abundance can often be like the ocean, ebbing and flowing with the tides. When the tide is low, I seek to remind myself how quickly the tide can turn and bring with it the seeds of prosperity which planted will flourish and grow. Today, I look to the heavens and I thank the Universe for all bestowed upon me, with gratitude and confidence that I have planted the seeds. ~ Pamela J. Leavey

I wrote Watch Us Stand Strong in 1994. I’ve shared it here before but felt today was a good day to share it again:
Watch Us Stand Strong
Long have we walked
Through the valley of our sadness,
Searching for a way
To end all the madness.
Long have we toiled,
Silent and unnoticed,
Suppressing our knowledge
And our gift to heal the world.
We are large by number,
We are small through the ages,
There are few that have spoken,
Few that dare to read
Our pages.
We are mothers,
We are daughters,
We are sisters,
We are friends;
We contain the lifeblood,
And the passion
Of all the universe
In our souls.
We are women,
Full of knowledge,
And beauty;
The Queens of our planet.
We are home now,
Watch us stand strong,
It is time to heal
Our world.

When I look to the skies, I often see very magical formations in clouds like the one below that looks a bit like a rainbow colored lightening bolt seen through the the bare trees:
When I see rainbows, my heart lifts up to the heavens in a sort of communion with the universe that fills me with joy.
It’s so important to find joy in the little things in life, as I have noted here in my Daily Affirmation today, and my Food For Thought post yesterday.
We go through life sometimes in a very numb state of mind, in that we forgot to look to the skies for rainbows or stop and smell the flowers.
I learned a long time ago that in being in the moment, you place your heart and soul in alignment with the opportunity to experience and feel joy. To be in the moment takes constant work and practice on living with an open mind and an open heart.
Awakening to joy, seeing rainbows is a great balm to the soul when we learn to look to even the littlest things to fill our hearts and minds with love and gratitude.

Sometimes in life you step out of your comfort zone and take a chance… Stepping out on a limb, you trust the universe to keep you safe.
But then, the tree shakes because maybe it’s not strong enough to bear your weight and you plummet to the ground.
So you ask the tree, why did you let me down, but the tree doesn’t respond, it just looks at you and shakes, leaving you filled with uncertainty and pain.
There is heartbreak in losing trust. There is grief in what you may think of as your own failure to recognize, that the tree wasn’t as strong and powerful as it appeared.
Illusions can get shattered like the glass in a mirror. In time with reflection you move past the heartbreak and grief and find your bearings once again. Healing takes time.
