~ I now realize that I had to go through those humbling and painful experiences, to effect the changes in my life that have brought to me such incredible joy. Gone are the dark days when I was just a dormant, chunk of non-descript coal. The intense pressures that had been exerted on me, for oh, so many years, have since turned me into a bright, multi-faceted diamond. I now live my life in a higher vibration with vibrant energy pulsating through every cell of my being. I thank God, my angels and my spirit guides, for freeing me from an existence of dark despair and for delivering me into the Light Amen ~ Written after the break-up of my marriage |

Earth Angel, What spirit, what strength.A wonderful poem. When there is nothing left for us to feed upon and all resources are gone. It is then our spirit guides rise up to greet us and provide hope to what may appear to be an exhausted existance.We are reminded that we are more than just skin, bones and consciousness. We are the energy from which life bears meaning. We find the strength to give meaning to our lives from this undefined, abstract process called hope.It is in this moment of despair that I give thanks. SG |

Linda, I am so glad you are now happy and content with your life and who you are. Being in the dark is not a good place. Thankfully your spirit guides and angels took you to a place where there is so much joy and love ... in the light. Hugs for a glorious weekend, Marti Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. |

Marti-- I am still tested in this life, as we all are, but the difference now is that I regard all the tests as opportunities to grow. I also no longer see things as either black or white. I now see the grays and appreciate them as well. I am so open to life. I'm in a good place in my life but I am also excited about where I'm going. Thanx, dear one, for your caring heart! Linda |

Toerag-Lite-- Why you sound good enough to drink! ---and I wouldn't have to worry about the calories! Now, about your body parts vibrating, I suggest you take full advantage of that. You could turn your bath tonight into a Jacuzzi experience! Enjoy! P.S. I was laughing so hard at your funny reply, that I had a difficult time trying to respond to yours! tehe EA |

I now live my life in a higher vibration with vibrant energy pulsating through every cell of my being. Lol...pretty much how I felt when my ex left, also. Like the world was suddenly a sunnier place to be. |

I love how you did this one, Linda... There is definitely a moral here... Something like the ugly duckling turning into a beautiful swan... The dark piece of coal turning into the bright diamond... Just beautifully done... ~ hugs and diamonds Lyra |

Paul~~~ You are so right! I did not turn my back on God when my world was falling apart--and I'm glad I didn't! He stretched out His hand and I took it---and he delivered me into the Light! ~ May God's Light shine down on you always! ~ EA |
