A Poem to Inspire You!

PHENOMENAL WOMAN
by Maya Angelou

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size but when I start to tell them, they think I'm telling lies. I say, it's in the reach of my arms. The span of my hips, the stride of my step, the curl of my lips. I'm a woman. Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman.
That's me.
I walk into a room just as cool as you please, and to a man, the fellows stand or fall down on their knees. Then they swarm around me, A hive of honey bees. I say, it's the fire in my eyes, and the flash of my teeth, the swing in my waist, and the joy in my feet. I'm a woman.
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman.
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered what they see in me. They try so much but they can't touch my inner mystery. When I try to show them they say they still can't see. I say, Ii's the arch of my back, the sun of my smile, the ride of my breasts, the grace of my style. I'm a woman.
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman.
That's me.
Now you understand just why my head's not bowed. I don't shout or jump about. Or have to talk real loud. When you see me passing it ought to make you proud. I say, it's in the click of my heels, the bend of my hair, the palm of my hand, the need of my care. 'Cause I'm a woman.
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman.
That's me.

The Universe has amazing things in store for you!

Greetings to All ~
I received this lovely prayer today and wanted to share it with you.
Have a Wonderful Day!
Stars do not struggle to shine; rivers do not struggle to flow, and you will never struggle to excel in life, because you deserve the best. Hold on to your dream and it shall be well with you... Amen.
The eyes beholding this message shall not behold evil, the hand that will send this message to others shall not labor in vain, the mouth saying Amen to this prayer shall laugh forever, remain in Divine love.
Good morning, your dream will not die, your plans will not fail, your destiny will not be aborted, and the desire of your heart will be granted. Say a big Amen. Money will know your name and address. None goes to the river early in the morning and brings dirty water. As you are up this morning, may your life be clean, calm and clear like the early morning water. May the grace of the Divine support, sustain and supply all your needs according to His riches in glory.
Amen Love the Self.
Divine presence will never take you where Divine Grace will not protect you. See something good happening to you, something you have been waiting to experience. You are going to experience a divine visitation that will move your life forward by the working of The Universe's unstoppable Power.
You are Blessed.

I Love Living A Spiritual Life

Sometimes I have to pinch myself because I feel so happy for no reason AND things that I've always dreamed of are coming true. Not the high pie in the sky kind of things, but the simple living of experiencing happiness in most of what I do, or don't do. Living a spiritual life infuses the sensuality of creation with the ordinary. This is happening every moment and I was blind to it for so long. But now that my eyes are open, I cry when I cut open a grapefruit and see all the immense intelligence to have created such a beautiful gift. And how unbelievably amazing is it that us humans can actually eat it and it gives us vitamins and minerals we need. I mean that is utterly miraculous that we are being supported with food from the earth, rain, sun and wind! Every storm, every wave, every breeze, every ray of sunshine is a blessing from the same intelligence that creates the grapefruit. How humbling it is to be lovingly supported by this Life!

Sue and Karen offer such a warm space to share my experience of living a spiritual life. They also provide the exact challenge I need to deepen into myself and experience myself in an even more loving way, as there is no end to Love.

Thank you for offering these meetings and I look forward to sharing many more!
