Don't Need Religion

These days, it seems like everyone has a little bit of it and too many have too much of it!  Wondering what I am talking about?  I'll tell you - it's religion!  Religion permeates every part of our society, our cultures, and our existence.  No matter what we want to believe or not believe, it impacts our life each and every day.  You can avoid it all you want, but it is still there doing its thing.

For those who know me, they know that religion is generally a 4 letter word in my mind.  After all, I had horrendous experiences with it from an early age until I got out of the church.  The first molester got me when I was just a few years old while going to the bathroom in a church.  I still remember hearing the congregation singing their hymns above us, as the molester was having fun with me in the downstairs basement bathroom.

Of course, it continued on to the caretakers of my life that told me how much God loved me and the way in which they were required to demonstrate that to me.  After all, how could anyone not want to be loved by God and in such a special way (insert sarcasm voice here).  The thing was, everyone turned their head to the emotional, physical and sexual abuse I was going through.  If they couldn't see what was happening, I'm sure it was just like the rest of our society who closes their eyes to the evil before them.

Change In LIfe Increases Friction

Healing With The Angels

App On iTunes
There are days like the current moment I am writing this blog post, that stress just builds up.  I do a tremendous amount to let it go in my life, but at times it just gets the best of me.  I've actually been doing much better since my last healing session.  In the past few days, however, I feel like a tea kettle ready to whistle.

Little things just push me over the limit and I see myself reacting to them, even though I don't want to do this.  I get frustrated at the thought of reacting when I wish I could turn off that valve.  It isn't easy to navigate these areas of my life.  Most people who aren't close to me, never get to see this side of me.  It is one that I hide from the world.

Yet, I know I am making progress and I do understand that my life is under a great deal of stress right now.  I also know that things are changing and with change, sometimes it can create intense friction on re-entry into life.  I feel like some events have built up and now I'm facing a time where I need to release stress in a big way.  I wish I had the resources to go and get some bodywork done, but right now that is not an option.

Daily Angel Meditations October 1


Another website that I have created and write for daily is filled with positive and uplifting messages of growth and awareness.  It is called Daily Angel Meditation and is created from my morning meditations with the angels.  As I take time out in the beginning of my day, I record whatever comes to me.  I start out with a blank piece of paper and no preconceived ideas of what to write.  I then allow the words to fill the page, connecting with what my angels have to say.


Here are selected blog posts beginning the week of September 16, 2012.  I have tried to summarize them briefly and give the actual link to them.  To visit the website, just go to DailyAngelMeditation.com .



September 16, 2012 (Sunday)

Topic:  All In Your Perspective
What we see in our life around us, is all in your perspective.  If we hold the vision of our future in front of us, the worries of our day will be less.  It isn't about the past experiences we have been through, but what we do with our future.
