Remaining Calm


Staying centered.  Staying calm.  This is my intention for these days.  Not the Queen's type of calm, as in "Keep calm and carry on."  This is not a time to stuff our feelings of anxiety and pretend everything is fine.  It is a time to recognize that a lot is happening in the world that is creating chaos.  There is wild energy swirling in all parts of the world.  It is important to acknowledge that we are all being bombarded daily with things that don't feel right.

In light of this it is our responsibility to stay grounded and clear and full of compassion.  A tall order, I know.  But we are here to enjoy life and to do our best.  It is possible to stay separate from the mayhem, even if that is a challenging task.  Many people are stepping forward to assist in this endeavor.  Each of us needs to explore how to connect with our best energy in ways that work for us personally.  May you be blessed with strength and clarity.

"You are the sky.  Everything else is just the weather."
