Be Thankful for the Small Things

This is a time to give thanks. Many give thanks for family and friends, health, even fun things like Diet Pepsi or chocolate.

I feel as though each day as we look around we all have so much to be thankful for. Even things we cannot see or quite understand.

I have many people ask about where their life or job will be in the future. Sometimes I see good things and others I have to try to share news that can be disheartening. But what I’ve learned is whether good or bad it’s always something that changes us. Makes us stronger or teaches a lesson. Change moves us, how we accept it and act on it determines the impact.

Be thankful for the small things for one day they may be what you long for. A hug from a loved one, the scent of fried chicken cooking, or a simple phone call to brighten your day. Take in everything, watch the sunset, take a minute to tell someone you care.

Know you are smiled upon and loved. You have loved ones all around, even the ones you can’t see that watch over from a far. Be thankful for what you have, express it in our own unique way. Live your life with purpose, a thankful heart and take chances, you’ll be glad you did.

My Craziness

As young as I can remember I have been afraid of the dark. My grandpa used to tease me that I could beat a light out when I left a room. I probably slept with a teddy bear until I got married so I wasn’t alone. I have always dreamt very vividly. In fact, many times I cannot tell the difference between reality and my dreams. I would often tell my grandmother about experiences I had and she would say “I know how they do sis”. She would say how she would have visitations in dreams or hear the back door close when she was the only one there.

My brother Joel, ten years younger than I am, got dragged to every movie about ghosts that came out. The poor kid! We would talk about experiences we had. My room in the home we grew up in was haunted. He only spent one night in it after I moved out and would never sleep in it again.

In 6th grade I met my dear friend Amy, we would spend hours talking about sightings and feelings we experienced. In fact now we hunt ghosts together for fun.
When the love of my life Jason and I got married and started to look at houses to buy, I would tell him instantly whether or not the house we were looking at had a ghost in it just by walking through it. Turns out, it didn’t matter what house we bought, spirit always had a way of finding me. It wasn’t until recently I learned how to help them.

In fact, for a time, I would tell anyone who would listen to me about my stories of the paranormal and loved hearing their’s. I felt more normal knowing I wasn’t alone with what I could see and feel. Then ,through life changes, I stopped talking about it. In a way I closed it off because in new settings it wasn’t so easily accepted as it had been.

One day, out of the blue, I got a messages from an acquaintance on social media. She knew things about me she could not have known. No Facebook post I ever made could have led her to what she knew. My response to her was, “how long have you had your gift?” She replied, “my whole life, how long have you had yours?”

I had a gift? She seen it and believed in me. She has been instrumental in me opening up more about my craziness. I have in recent years been very selective who I open up to about this. Afraid of what people mighty think or not being accepted.

As time progressed, I started to see spirits connected to people. Loved ones of their’s that were coming through to relay a message and give guidance from heaven. In fact, what brought me to doing readings happened completely by chance.

I decided to go to a different lady to get my eyelashes done. I was laying in her chair and had only known her for about 10 minutes when her grandmother’s spirit came through so strong that I couldn’t not acknowledge it. I said “your going to think I’m crazy, but..” And there it began. I didn’t know this sweet lady. I had been referred to her by a friend. She was open to me and my gift, and in turn shared her experience with her friends. That chain of events is what led me into all of this. After receiving many referrals and having people contact me I decided it was time for me to get my own website, blog and start sharing with others to hopefully help them in some small way.

I have to thank the people who have supported, loved and encouraged my craziness, my gift. A special thanks to those who have let me into their lives to share this gift. To those who are weary, I welcome your questions. As you read this, maybe you can relate to what I have described, or maybe you are a skeptic? Either way this is me. This is who I am.

If we never step outside ourselves how will we ever know our own potential?

I look at Ashley and think “she’s so talentented, she can sing, she’s beautiful, she can do this and that and this…. “…. Everyone has someone they think this about. What makes me so special? How are my talents or gifts any different than anyone else’s? I am here to tell you they are!!!
You are special! There is no one like you! No one can do what you do. No one else has your smile, laugh, or way of making a friend’s day just by a simple hello.
It’s ok to take a chance. It’s ok to go after what you want. It’s ok to find what makes you happy and follow that dream. That doesn’t mean you drop everything you’re doing now. It means start small, make a plan, talk to someone for advice, maybe me? Lol. If we never step outside ourselves how will we learn our own potential? You have it! That special something that makes you, you!! You are amazing! You are special! You are loved!!

One Last Moment- Lesson on Forgiveness

If you were to approach this bench and take a seat, having the chance to choose someone you have lost in your life to be there, who would you want to sit with you? What would you say? What questions would you ask? If you had one last moment with someone close to you, would you bring up an argument or pick a fight or would you take in every word, and make every syllable count? Is there something you left unsaid that you now regret?

Too many times we waste energy on petty things, grudges take up too much space that can be used in more productive ways. Take a look at what you value most. Make amends wtih those people in your life that may have caused you feelings, or that you may have crossed. Many times we have things that have separated us because of a hurt feeling, or misunderstanding. This can be our biggest regret if not settled. Life is short. Look at what matters. Forgive where you can. Make peace with yourself, and with your loved ones here now. Live without regrets. You’ll be much happier knowing you’ve done all you can when you had the chance.

Shielding Yourself from Negativity

Have you ever noticed that just being around another person who is having a really bad day can make your day turn negative? Other people’s negativity can affect you without you even knowing it. I want to share something that I have learned that really helps me avoid this most of the time. I use this every single day! This is especially important to learn if you are an empath.

Close your eyes. Picture a huge ball of light radiating from your forehead. Feel it start to encompass your entire body. As it encompasses you nothing can penetrate it. While the light encompasses your body all of the thoughts you have become positive. No harmful thoughts or outside sources can hurt or influence you. You feel the peace and warmth from the shield comforting and protecting you. Hold this image in your minds eye as long as you need to. Ask it to continue to shield you from negativity.

As you continue to practice this shielding method it will become second nature. You will be able to put up your shield within seconds. You can do this when you are anxious or feeling negative energy coming from someone or something. Your shield can encompass your children, your husband, or others in need. I do this when I am worried about my family or uneasy about something concerning them. I also do it at night when I meditate so only positive things surround me.

I hope this helps you!
