Today I found a rainbow

It was right before my eyes

for months I tried to find it

but it was lost beneath my cries

The rainbow held my answers

and I found it with a prayer

the colours held my questions

yet the colours seemed so rare

The fear inside held me still

my heart was racing fast

the answers seemed to be so close

but I was in my past 

I looked above the rainbow

and saw and angel high

who took my hand and held it tight

and took me to the sky 

The sky was bright and cheery

my heart felt so alive

the rainbow unlocked its gold

it told me to survive 

The answers seemed so simple

and my heart filled up with love

the answer was just be yourself

and I heard it from above

the rainbow is so clear right now

It never seems that far

the colours seem to calm my soul

and lost are all my scars

A time to be Grateful

This year I have much to be grateful and thankful for 

A wonderful family 

a beautiful home 

abundance surrounds me 

I welcomed a grandson 

and new daughter in law 

I worked on my vision 

I stayed true to me 

I have many friends 

wonderful pets 

and most of all you 

Happy Thanksgiving 

May you be thankful for everything in your world

 

Welcome Grayson

 Grayson may not know it just yet ....... and yet babies are very perceptive so he might have picked up the vibe from these first hugs, but he has the most beautiful and warm hearted Grandmother.

Mother's Day comes early

My sweet and beautiful friend Cyndi became a Grandmother last night as she welcomed her new Grandson - Grayson. 

Baby Grayson made his debut at 11:50 pm {Thursday, May 10th}, weighing a healthy 9 pounds 3 ounces. New parents Justyne and Matt cuddled Grayson in their arms last night after his arrival. 

Congratulations to Matt and Justyne.

Cyndi traveled out to Calgary a few weeks ago to be with her Daughter for Grayson's arrival. The deliriously long process played out for over a week with Justyne being bounced from doctor to doctor. Already this brand new Mom has proven just how much stamina and patience she has.

Cyndi and I text'd last night for hours as she waited nervously for her Grandson to be born. My own Daughter and I had the pleasure of sharing the birth of my Granddaughter with Cyndi only two years ago. It was my beautiful friend who comforted me as I tended to my Daughter then, and I wanted to hop a plane to go out and take care of Cyndi like she did for me. But I sent her Angels {as she has done for so many of us before} and prayed for Justyne.

Happy 'First' Mother's Day to Justyne. You are about to find out just how wonderful life is with this new Angel in your arms.

And Happy Mother's Day to new Grandma Cyndi. You are blessed. I'm so excited that you have joined the Grandma club...... I can't wait for you to share all the pictures and stories of Grayson.

Cyndi's arms are a little busy right now, but she will share her experiences of becoming a Grandma with readers shortly.

Letting Go of a Dream

Sometimes in life we come face to face with letting go of a dream.  A dream that you have held on to for years.  You have been in contact with the universes and followed the laws of attraction.  The universe failed to deliver.  It's hard to let go of that dream, and hard to let go of that vision that you look forward to. That dream is sometimes the reason for getting up in the morning. 

How do you let go.  How do we do it.  How do we get over the fact that a dream that felt so real, so close to your heart and to your touch, just vanished before your eyes.   

Sometimes letting go of that dream can be likened to a divorce or a death.  A death of a Dream.  The taste, the feeling, the smell and the touch have been so real and vivid for so long that letting go of it seems .........impossible.  

When you feel that the universe holds back on delivering a dream you have to believe that it is because our best interests are being looked after. 

Your soul, your heart and your being will survive, it will go on.   You are strong. Its time to put that dream to rest and focus on a new dream.   One that will bring sunshine and no disappointment into your world.  One that will open many doors and not let you down. The new dream will be just around the corner, and on the wish of the last star you see that new day.

Gently release that dream.   Send it off with all the love and best wishes.   Release that dream and let the one that is supposed to come true and find you.

Today I am holding the last star.  I am releasing an old dream and I wish for it love and happiness without negativity at my loss.  I am wishing for greatness and strength.  I am looking for a new dream to come true today.  I have written an old chapter in my book and began a new one.
