Shine the Divine:

Creativity IS a Spiritual Practice

When we see through our hearts, we recognize that every single one of us is infused with creativity. Divine Sparks are embedded in everyone and everything. It's up to us to be courageous, to look and listen deeply, to find the sparks, gather and release them back into the universe, transformed into something new. Join me as we wake up to the sacred-ordinary blessings waiting to greet us each and every day.

    You remain in my thoughts and prayers. I have spoken to God on your behalf, "Dearest God, Father of us all, You created the heavens, the earth and all therein, zebras....flamingos, the mighty oaks, I know you can restore Laura's health, regenerate her cells - T-cells, all of that. I know you can. Thank you. A-men.

    Post Script: I'll return on her behalf in a few hours.

    Your idea of just posting pictures for a little while is good, because we can interpret what we want form them. To me this means always look UP!

    Sending you hugs and peaceful thoughts. I know from someone very close to me that with MS it is important to know your own body and rest when you need to do so. Take care of yourself, know that we care and are thinking of you.

    Oh this made me laugh..I know strange..but I have been in that position before I learned to always take my cell phone with me out to the yard in case I fall and can't get up..one time in the winter, I fell..no phone and I didn't hurt myself, just couldn't get up. I was dressed warmly so I just stayed and starred up at this tree and the sky...it was kind of cool..then hubby came home and noticed me there..I wear an orange ski cap for that reason..It made me smile..thank you..Michelle
