Are you feeling the LOVE?

I have been noticing more and more this beautiful feeling of LOVE expanding in my heart.  At times it just happens spontaneously and has been known to bring tears to my eyes.  But the amazing thing is not only do I feel it radiating outward, I also feel the LOVE radiating inwardly.  It’s like it surrounds me but it is also in me.  Though I am trying to put this feeling into words, I feel as though words cannot adequately describe it.  I feel that not only is my heart, but my whole way of BEing is expanding.

Though I would like to say I can continuously stay in this way of BEing, I am human after all.  I do have ups and downs.  But on the days I am not feeling as brightly lit within, I have learned to be gentle with myself and to recognize these are opportunities for spiritual growth.

One thing I do know for sure is this journey I am on is like finding buried treasure along the way to my destination.  There is no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.  The path is strewn with pieces of gold, so when we reach the end of the rainbow we realize we are the one who filled our own pot.  Aren’t we magnificent?

 

A Leap of Faith

The Universe is a magical, mystical place. I love it! I have been experiencing a whirl wind of change and feeling a bit off balance. Last week as I was driving home late at night, I see a small iron statuette of a frog by a curb. A frog statuette? By the side of the road? I am a believer of signs from the Universe. I did some research on the symbolism of the frog and this is what I found;

Frog Symbolism

The symbolism of the frog appears in many traditions around the globe. This animal is generally associated with the water element and its cleansing attributes. The frog is symbolic of:
• Cleansing
• Renewal, rebirth
• Fertility, abundance
• Transformation, metamorphosis
• Life mysteries and ancient wisdom

Well that could not be more relevant for what I am experiencing right now! These types of things happen to me more often then not, but they never cease to amaze me! Signs are constant reminders that we are fully supported in our endeavors. These signs are validations of that fact if we are willing to open our heart to this truth.

I also feel that the frog sighting was the Universe saying sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith.
