I almost wrote 2015…wonder why that is? Nothing is coincidence! Well, on with the show here. I am pooped. I was rather industrious yesterday and the day before in the assimilating information and learning sense. Aside from working 7:30 am – 5 pm, I also did my first real module of a traditional Tarot course (Ryder-Waite deck) on Cups and Pentacles, helped a friend with an emotional clearing issue and some energy healing (sort of), cleared a whole lot of my own stuff (the womb thing, other things), and played most of a Destiny Nightfall Strike to kill Alak-Hul the Darkblade. Had to go eat dinner, paused the game, and lost connection. That’s enough to wear you out and make you mad!
Thank you to my friend yesterday and my friend this morning for letting me help with your emotional clearing stuff. It came up without being planned but let me get my feet wet again after years of sitting in the bleachers. It’s also nice to be able to see the threads of things and how they are woven into a nice tapestry that I experience as life. Often I can see the threads interwoven, but I’m not able to really put it into words. At any rate, when I notice those types of things, I am amazed and pleased to be able to see the connections. Anyway, thank you to both friends <3
Each moment of each day brings me closer to completion of personal and spiritual growth, but it’s not just for me. Any time that you – yes YOU – raise your vibration just a little bit, the ripples in the pond wash over everyone else and raise theirs too. If you don’t believe that it works, look at the article I found today entitled Harvard Report Advocates for Kindness Instead of Overachieving. Are you sure this is from my world? LOL!! Yes, it is! Isn’t that amazing?!? Who knew that the whole world would finally be paying attention to kindness? I always hoped but never thought I would actually see it.
Ah, which brings me to today’s topic, apparently. I get this feeling washing over me when I hit upon it in case you didn’t know. Believing.
I used to use the word Knowing (capital K) to indicate that I not only had the information, I deeply knew or understood it. I thought it encompassed everything. Obviously not. When Erin began communicating with me after her body’s death, she told me BELIEVE. Yeah, it was in all caps and that was deliberate because she was emphasizing and shouting, through a picture at any rate. I am visual and have always been more clairvoyant and clairsentient than clairaudient, so pictures and feelings work very well for me. I said OK, I will BELIEVE because you told me and I believe you. You know, I did, not not entirely. It’s a process. Oh, she also showed me a picture of one of her Tinkerbell figurines. Guess what? This one had Believe on both wings. <3
Anyway, I was just nudged to look up the differences. Here’s the definition of Believe:
-
: to accept or regard (something) as true
-
: to accept the truth of what is said by (someone)
-
: to have (a specified opinion)
And conversely, Know:
-
: to have (information of some kind) in your mind
-
: to understand (something) : to have a clear and complete idea of (something)
-
: to have learned (something, as a skill or a language)
Wow, see the difference? Honestly I hadn’t looked them up until just now. I’m a little astounded.
And for fun, Faith:
-
: strong belief or trust in someone or something
-
: belief in the existence of God : strong religious feelings or beliefs
-
: a system of religious beliefs
Apparently builds on Belief. But she wouldn’t have used that, because since I am not religious, I don’t really identify. Perhaps you do, which is why I included it.
Bit by bit, since the first time she spoke to me after she passed, I have built on this belief and as my experiences are validated, I believe a little more. The foundation is stronger I suppose. I believe, for the purposes of my writing today, that the point is if we all believed that the world was changing, was kinder, was abundant, etc. etc. blah blah, perhaps it would just happen? I’m not sure. I do know that since I have begun feeling and practicing more kindness and unconditional love, I am experiencing just that. Seeing it reflected in the world at large is wonderful also though. That also gives me a foundation for Hope.
