Sometimes I become engrossed in life's ups and downs, and forget, but whenever I feel overwhelmed, all I need to do is to go outside and look up at the sky, and look at the trees which reach up to the sky, and feel the healing power of the universe all around me.  How can I possibly not feel better.

I sometimes need reminding that the only person we can change is ourselves, and by healing ourselves we will eventually heal the world.  As we heal, and become more loving, we will begin to have a positive effect on others around us, who will in turn become more loving, creating a ripple effect. 

The journey is not always easy.  Sometimes we seem to make a lot of progress, and feel like we are almost there, and other times we seem to get "stuck", and the answers we are seeking seem impossible to find.  It is then that we just need to let go, and trust that when we are ready, the answers will be given to us.

Reiki has helped me in this healing process, and whenever I think I am not getting anywhere, I only need to look back to where I was before I learned Reiki, to realise how far I have come.  If Reiki has been a part of your journey, I sure you have found this to be true for you also.  Blessings to all who visit these pages.

My Favourite Prayers Prayer of St Francis. Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light;   And where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so   much seek to be consoled, as to console; To be understood, as to understand;   To be loved, as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, It is in the pardoning that we are pardoned,   And it is in the dying that we are born   to eternal life. St. Francis of Assisi		Serenity Prayer   God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference.

Some Quotes I especially like If you would learn the secret of right relations look only for the divine in people and things, and leave the rest to God. J. Allen Boone  Your success and happiness lie in you.   External conditions are the accidents of life.   The great enduring realities are love and service.   Joy is the holy fire that keeps our purpose warm and our intelligence aglow.   Resolve to keep happy and your joy and you shall form   an invincible host against difficulty.  Helen Keller (1880-1968) The thought manifests as the word; The word manifests as the deed; The deed develops into habit; And habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care, And let it spring from love Born out of concern for all beings. The Buddha All truths wait in all things.  They neither hasten their own delivery nor resist it.  The insignificant is as big to me as any.  What is less or more than a touch?  Logic and sermons never convince, the damp of the night drives deeper into my soul. Walt Whitman.  Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. Henry David Thoreau

A Blessing I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough "Hellos" to get you through the final "Good-bye"
