The personality worries, the soul is fine...

My personality's favorite time is around 4am. That's when I sometimes wake and lie there worrying. 'I've got to learn how to use my new laptop'...'How do I deal with a client who struggles to be regressed?'...'What's for dinner tonight?'...'Did I feed the chook?'

It all seems too hard in the dark, yet when I get up in the morning, the sun is shining and things seem quite manageable.

My soul is not at all phased by daily challenges. It can see the bigger picture of my life, and the even bigger picture of the entire universe. What does a new laptop, a tricky client, a boring meal or a grumpy chook matter in the bigger scheme of things? I'm fine; you're fine!

Pray and ye shall receive...

I am writing a book containing 101 inspirational, quirky short essays, titled 101 Soul Smiles. I needed five subjects to make up the 101, but just couldn't come up with five subjects that I hadn't already written about. It was becoming vexing, so yesterday I prayed for answers.

Last night I 'happened to' read about Edison and Enstein receiving inspiration for inventions while they slept. I went to sleep, and half woke at 4am with the final five subjects for my book. I woke my husband, told him and went back to sleep! My prayer was answered...

Don't be afraid of death - it's a blissful release

I have had a mild migraine for days. I reflected this morning on the relief when I die, to finally be free of physical pain. If you are apprehensive about dying, think of the bliss you will experience when you let go of your tired body (first thanking it for good service!).

I have read many accounts of a soul leaving its body at death. All speak of a joyful state of lightness and freedom. The soul looks down at the body and feels no sense of loss - the thought of returning to that cold lump of flesh is abhorrent. Don't be afraid of death.

Join me in writing a book in eight weeks...

I'm re-reading Sylvia Browne's book 'God, Creation and Tools for Life'. I like these teachings. They state that there is no sin (true) but the closest thing to it is despair. I do so agree. Despair and self-pity shut us off from the 'sunlight of the spirit' (an AA phrase).

I have set a goal: I am writing a little book titled '101 Soul Smiles' in the next eight weeks. It will feature 101 soul inspirations, based on my blogs. Each inspiration must make the reader smile, and I intend to have a lot fun writing them.

The essence of my soul group is Joy. I relate to fun, jokes and laughter. I want to replace the heavy energy of recent despair with the light energy of Joy. Do joy-n me! (I promise that's the worst pun you will read...)
