The Fog is Lifting on Life Today

The Fog is Lifting on Life Today

The fog is lifting on life today

The Light is burning through

Life takes form within the mist

The ground is filled with dew

I stand in awe and look at life

Its beauty all around

The fog once hid the Masterpiece

Yet hearing every sound

The birds they sang such Joyful songs

While hidden in the trees

Fragrances so soft and sweet

Refreshed me  with each breeze

The fog is lifting on Life today

My spirit feels the stir

Vision's clearing with the Light

I'm sure you will concur

There're lessons to be learned I say

With how the fog does lift

From ground to trees to sky above

Learning is such a gift

Such magic held within the ground

Where water it does seep

Seeds once sown now grow strong

Faithful roots are running deep

Little sprouts start showing green

They grow up from the ground

Healthy trees grow strong and tall

Natures beauty all around

This is where some time is spent

Living with the land

A Spirit grows inside the Soul

Fed from Nature's hand

To reach up to the sky with Love

Branches stretch and grow

We're changing with each season

Our leaves they come and go

But at the core are faithful roots

That guide us from within

To grow and reach beyond ourselves

We truly can begin

Reach up towards the sky above

Towards infinity

For there  you'll find enlightenment

 With new clarity

The sky and sun are beaconing

For us to come and play

Hide and Seek among the clouds

With Angels every day

A wonderland awaits  for us

Past the clouds and sun

Stars encourage prayerful thoughts

New Life's Just begun

The fog is lifting on Life today

 Light Shines Bright as gold

All this I get from foggy mist

A story to unfold

RAIN

RAIN:

"Rain rain go away come again another day"

The Joyful Mantra of children.

If we could but see that joy again in rain.
The rain of nature,the rain of soul, the rain of emotion

Rain:
Can bring dark skies and clouds
Can block the light of day
Can bring heaviness and lethargy
Can dash hopes and dreams
Can cancel events and postpone joys
Can bring headaches and pains
Can dampen the soul and hide laughter
Can cover a Light heart
Can create so much mud

Yet, Rain:
Can wash away old dust and grime
Can create table tents and rug picnics
Can refresh on a hot day
Can bring mud puddles to dance in
Can bring growth to the seeds of the earth
Can bring rainbows of Hope
Can bring New Life to a desert
Can make the Sonshine seem even Brighter
Can make the most vibrant Greens
Can create to most vivid colors
Can bring out so many shades of brown

Rain also:
Can nourish the heart
Can spark the imagination
Can make the most soothing sounds
Can give time for reflection
Can bring comfort to a child
Can create new growth
Can create time for friends
Can make time for reading and writing
Can bring Hope for a better tomorrow
Can be perfect for meditation and prayer
Can renew the soul


So I take the sweet liberty and change up the rhyme:

Rain Rain come this way;
Bring us Growth is what I say
For when you leave things will have grown;
As New Hope you have sown
So come if you must and bring with you;
Flowers and Rainbows and Life renew

Thought for the Day: Courage, Determination and Love

Fill every thought with determination, every step with courage and every word with love. from: Thought for Today www.thoughtfortoday.org.uk

As newborns we rely on others to change our destination. Slowly we learn to move, to crawl to investigate the world around us; for it is a story yet untold. One day, with great determination, we take a tentative step, and then another, and another, trying to reach what lies ahead. With each step we gain confidence and courage to take another step. Soon we’re running without fear, investigating the wonders around us. We feel the Love and support of those around, encouraging us to keep going. With the Love and Light around us we seek knowledge and truth, walking , even running with Faith towards unknown adventures. We giggle with glee and express our excitement to others with overabundant Love and Joy! As little children we can’t wait to talk about our adventures and get others to watch us, or even join us. Remember reaching out to take someone’s hand and pull them along? “Come see!! I’ll take you…. See it’s not scary…. Look!!!” The excitement of these words are filled with such great Love, Courage and Determination.

As adults we can loose some of our enthusiasm and determination. We get sidetracked, procrastinate, turned around, and/or even fearful to take another step. Settling for mediocrity, we fall into a trap of hesitant starts and stops, of fear and insecurities, of self doubt and lack of motivation. We sometimes loose our love and excitement of and for life. We stagnate in the development of ourselves, of life, of Light, of love. We get stuck in the shadows and have fearful perceptions of what’s around us and what may be lurking ahead. Complacent with ourselves and our life, we can’t seem to see a way out so we trudge through blindly; in the dark.


If we look beyond the dark, beyond the shadows, there is a Light. It glimmers just ahead like the dawn of a new day. We can face the corners of darkness, or we can turn to the Light with wonder and excitement! “What is it? What will happen?” That little ember of Hope, that little Light becomes brighter. The darkness gives way to the Light and the Light continues to grow. The shadows fade and a world of wonder is unveiled: the warmth of the Son, the song of a bird, the soft breeze of an angel kisses your face. The Light shines deep and brightens even the darkest corners of resolve. A new world of Hope lies ahead. Your hand reaches up and says: “Take me, help me…. I want to see, feel, touch, explore….show me the way…” Feel the warmth in your hand gently guide you, encourage you, give you the strength to move forward… have Faith in the Light for it shines for us all. Let us once again open our eyes to see; open our hearts to feel; let go of our fears; learn to Love; learn to see the beauty around; and run again hand in hand with joy and excitement towards a glorious future.


May we once again find the wisdom of our childhood. The determination to take those first tottery steps out of the darkness. May we once again learn to run with courage towards the Son Light and the life we have in front of us. May we not look back at the darkness, the disappointments, sorrows or shortcomings; but instead, look towards the future with its rainbow of Hope. May we speak with Love and Light and may the son shine upon us warming us deep to the soul. May each day bring us a Spirit of wonder and Enlightenment and may we find true Peace and joy spreading it to all we meet and in all we do. May we once again take someone’s hand with Love and excitement and say; “ Come See!!… I’ll take you… See it’s not scary….Look!..” The Light shines for All. A hand is reaching down to you, take it and run with Courage, Determination and Love.
