From Melody on Mother's Day

On this Mother's Day, I wish to send out to all of you the best of all things feminine, the love that mothering gives us all, the nurturing that comes from the divine and the joy of sharing it with each other.

God Bless you, love that feminine part of yourself and if you can, hug your Mother or a Mother with sincere gratitude for what it represents.

Melody

For Mother's Day 2008

It isn't about the sleepless nights
Our mothers gave up for us
It isn't about the pain endured
giving life, giving birth and such

It's more about an outstretched hand
When no one seemed to care
The devotion laid in mundane things
Being taught how to wash your hair

The times when comfort made your spirit soar
And laughter made today all right
When homework answers where there for you
To help you through the night

A conversation of mysteries
Of growing and learning of life
A well placed leash on the ego's flight
Preventing some struggle and strife

As time moved on the mothering love
Shined forth through various eyes
The woman in the grocery store
Who helped with your little guys

The one who asks if you're warm enough
The one with the wisdom so wise
The one who hugs with a love so pure
It brings memories of days gone by

Of mother, mom and Grandmom too
The nurturing born from plan
The way to embrace the feminine side
For all of our fellowmen

To gather warmth and love inside
To gently touch a leaf
To understand the heart of all
When crying brings release

When strength no longer comes with fists
But character inside one self
Integrity and God connect
The love our mothers felt

The Grandmom who filled in for some
The woman down the street
The teacher in a first grade class
The ones we've yet to meet

The comfort gained, the solace felt
The warmth of loving arms
The moments lifetimes can n'er erase
Where no one could do us harm

So remember all the female love
And honor the roles they've played
Give thanks to mothers everywhere
An oasis along our way.

Message from The Council on Earth Changes

The most recent events that have taken place on the earth surfaces including the volcanoes, earthquakes, tornadoes and cyclones are disturbing for many, sad for all and are events that can bring fear into the hearts of those that have compassion and love as well as those without any understanding.

Know that it is of utmost importance now for those of you that can see a bigger perspective on life and the essence of living, to keep the fear away....not to ignore or close your hearts to the suffering, but on the contrary to fill your hearts with love and light and send it to those areas that are experiencing the great devastation.

Some of the fear that arises, comes from memories of other existences where this sort of passing has been a part of your script even though there may not be an awareness on the conscious level of this taking place. Release your fear and sorrow in the ways we have told you before or in the ways that work best for you. If you go into a quiet place, you will be led to it.

If in your daily plays or landscape, something comes to you that is encouraging you to be of physical aid to these areas, follow your heart. If it is only on the news or in passing that you hear and see these things, always see light going to the area. Picture the light as white and almost like a swirling or hug that surrounds the land as a whole. If a story comes to view about an individual situation, do the same with that.

Wringing of the hands over the potentials of the earth's changes will not lessen or bring peace and will definitely not turn the tide of lessening the changes. It will only create more of them then there needs to be to cleanse the planet and allow her to heal.

Weather patterns are a result, consequence or means by which negative is pulled away from this planet of accumulated thought, as all things are in one degree or another, as creation explores itself.

Be mindful of your conscious thoughts, my dear friends. This is your time to see great growth and miracles. These changes have been much less then the potentials that were being created could have been. Continue to make them less and less and spread only love to those people, places and things that you meet and touch each day.

Send a blessing and gratitude to the souls that have passed over from this plane. Their choices to be a part of this passing is one to honor as are all passings of this nature.

With great love,
The Council

Message from The Council

When it's time to allow the blessings to enter into our world and consciousness, it is because we let go of all the memories of "I don't deserve." We let the words and the inspirations that are given to us from friends, loved ones and most especially spiritual writings to resonate in our hearts and with that we make a release that allows the blessings to flow.

For so long the ego has been in charge of so much more then it was intended and because of free will , the effects of separation, or should it be said the feelings of separation, have grown and have imprinted themselves on our genetic structure, our unconscious and our conscious minds.

Those of us no longer in human physical form, have a better perspective and are able to see the bigger picture along the path that humankind is embarking upon. We have access to, on a more tangible basis, the records of many civilizations that have come before and can see and understand more of where the evolution of the soul and human consciousness is progressing toward. As each individual "you" realizes and lives a more "we" sort of life, with the camaraderie of true and loving friends, the "we" of existence imprints new and delightful scenarios and releases and nullifies the old.

As each of you finds the best connection to release at the moment in various ways and forms, the underlining love at the foundation of all , has a chance to emerge. It is always the simplest of notions that have been the most important to embrace and usually the one most discarded. The ego wants many words, the heart and soul need only few. Jesus and any other great teachers said "Love one another. That was simple. That is simple.

Love self, accept full responsibility for the play you have created, say I'm sorry for the things that aren't coming from pure intent or manifesting in a positive way due to whatever it is in your being that is out of connection and then be grateful and give thanks for the healing that you receive by the love that you give to your being.

We find ways to help inspire, comfort and guide through channels and personal contact in dreams and synchronicities. There is more help then you can possibly imagine available for each and every one of you. Just ask and watch for the signs each day...a chance meeting, a song on the radio, hearing a statement said to another that fits perfectly for you, a book on the shelf that speaks to you, an animal that speaks to you in its way and many many more. Be open to the guidance and watch the sun shine on you giving rays of light to brighten you path.

The Journey

It seems as if we hang around
Just waiting for love and light
It's always there behind the scenes
In balance both day and night

We need to let our hearts and minds
Raise up past ego flair
To let our soul join divinity
Healing us if we but dare

To know the truth is there for us
The ultimate surprise
That all is for our joyous life
A bounty beyond our eyes

A whiff of hope, the scent so sweet
A well placed loving touch
A kiss of wonder of what could be
The laughter, the fun and such

The beauty of a mountain sky
The wind and earth and trees
A horse's whinny and playful dance
Of hair blowing in the breeze

The eyes as windows so soft and warm
The heart that calls for peace
The ever knowing of abiding love
And sadness sings its release

Where God sneaks in to guide the path
Where angels and loved ones align
Where love speaks loud in unbroken stance
Only oneness; no longer yours or mine

The journey filled with ups and downs
By choices that we have made
A letting go brings love to light
Allowing all fear to fade
