Music

What song is playing through your mind at the moment? Listen to the words...think of the words that you are singing...or what song do you hang out to hear on the radio or have on repeat on your player!
This is an insight into your current situation. It gives you the answers you are looking for without even realising it.
Over the last few weeks I have not been able to go without my music for longer than an hour whether it be at home or in the car. In particular a few songs have been played over and over and the reflections they have given me in to current situations have been spot on.
So take the time to concentrate on your song of the moment and how it relates to your situation. If you cant connect the relevance straight away - write the words down or find them on the net and it will all be illuminated before your eyes....

I would love to hear of anyones situations and experiences they have had of this...or even after reading this post how it highlighted any current songs and situations.

Happy Listening!

Full Moon - Endings!

This Wednesday night is another full moon.
I know you are all thinking full moon's aren't positive. Thats when everyone goes "looney", people aren't themselves...etc...
The Full Moon is a wonderful way to say goodbye to the past. The full moon is a wonderful time to put closure to anything you want to see the back of.
Write a list of those things in your life that have had their time, that you've had enough of, that quite simply you just want to end.
Cross them off the list on wednesday night and see them disappear without the emotion normally connected with endings in our life.
The Full Moon has enormous power and we can benefit from embracing the role it can play....

Forgiveness...

I feel at the moment that I have soo much to write about and share but want to have a purpose to share it. As I've spoken about before I like to receive or go with signs that I have gotten from the universe. But maybe its time I just went with my intuition and the guiding force of the universe and consciousness.
Today i have had the overwhelming repetition of the theme - Forgiveness. It has so much more depth of meaning than we actually delegate to it. We are very superficial with its meaning.
FORGIVENESS is a major theme in Louise Hay's work. It is a major task and issue that underlies so much of the essence of our problems and hurdles that we find difficult to overcome.
During the week you are all aware that I was focused upon the anniversary of my grandmother's death. What revelation came to me this week was not at all what i was expecting.
I realised that I had not forgiven my grandmother for leaving me last year. You may be questioning why i would have the need to forgive someone that had passed over but its quite simple.
Forgiveness has nothing to do with whoever we are forgiving! these people who we are supposedly "not forgiving" probably dont even realise in half the cases that we have an issue with them. We are the ones carrying around the backpack (as call it) of resentment. Can they see it?? No. But we can definitely feel the burden of it.
So back to Grandma. Its not relevant whether she is here in spirit or not. what is relevant is the backpack full of anger and resentment that I continue to put on every morning that she is not here.
But the insight came during the week...if we believe in the philosophies of metaphysics and even the mind-body connection then Grandma has responsibility in this situation. I could not change any of the circumstances that surrounded Grandma's death - nor could anyone in our family for that matter or the medical profession. Everyone did the most they could do within the situation.
Therefore what good does it do holding onto the anger and resentment. Only that it will eventually eat away at me and I will be the one with the illness - not Grandma or anyone else.
There in essence explains forgiveness. It is about forgiving the situation so that you can move on.
I know that it has been difficult for me to move on as I thought that if I kept wishing her back or that I kept trying to change the scenario in my mind then everything would go back to "normal" but it cant and the only way for me to move forward was to forgive Grandma for leaving us when we thought that her journey on earth hadnt finished or that selfishly we needed her more here on earth.
Releasing the anger and resentment doesnt mean that I miss her any less. (a) "I accept my loved one's passing"
Therefore in the context of your own situations and those that have done wrong by you - it does not, as Lousie Hay would say "condone their behaviour" it just releases your energy to them and the event.
If you want to be really pro-active send them unconditional love! or as i say lots of pink love hearts and bubbles! But thats another topic to post!

Sometimes I will put an affirmation (a) to use for the situation or theme. Todays is:
Forgiveness is the healing tool I carry with me everywhere.
I AM WILLING TO FORGIVE

Who or what situation do you want to take out of your back pack today?

x Grandma x

My Grandma passed away exactly a year ago today - the 7th October 2007.

I really wanted to speak about her here today but I had reservations. I kept thinking to myself - what relevance did grandma have to my business, shes not really connected - so i cant really speak about her. But it came to me......

Grandma is one of the reasons for my business. Not because she developed it, not because she told me to do it, not because she had even been involved in it at all.

She relates to my business because she encouraged me to be ME!
She always had a belief in me that I was and was going to be successful no matter what I did. It was like "of course your doing that". She didnt pander to my needs or fuss over me like I was always right, it was a different approach - a knowingness that she had.

She also relates to my business because she role-modelled the way to approach life as a woman both through work and raising children. It was her essence that I know I have 'to get on with the task at hand'.

I am so grateful that I chose her for a grandmother (along with all the other wonderful and powerful female role models I continue and have had in my life thus far). Grandma taught me so much in life and still continues to do so in death without knowing so at the time.

I still hope and wish that she's just away for a while...that I'll eventually get a phone call or she'll just drop by. I still can’t believe she is gone and that we didn’t get to speak just one last time. They say it gets easier as the days go by, but I’m still not feeling it. I want the days to stop so that the memory of her doesn’t fade.
Im missing her more than words can describe and writing this doesnt even scratch the surface for all that I feel inside.


On the day that Grandma had her first stroke (4 days before she left this earth) I was actually consciously thanking those people and parts of my life that I am grateful for.
I know for the past year I have been angry and upset to even consider anything I am grateful for, what if something horrible happens again? I know it is something that I have to get past - so my message out of this post is - BE GRATEFUL. Let those you love, the experiences you have - whether they be perceived as good or bad, the relatives, the friends and even those people you feel negative emotions toward. Be grateful for everything and consciously say it aloud or write it down.
If its only today that you do it then you have done more than yesterday. Those people dont have to know as the universe will but I'm sure they would love to hear those words if you were able to share it with them.
I am not saying this just because my Grandma has passed over but for the fact that this is an area in our lives that we tend to neglect and that we need to be more conscious of - if only for a moment a day. The return of energy will be much higher than the investment you made for that one moment.

I am so grateful for everything that Grandma bought into my life and I am eternally grateful that we were able to cross paths in this lifetime.


Love to you always Grandma Veale
