My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...

Lately it seems that not only people who I closely associate with offline, but also many of those who I blog with are going through painful challenges involving the loss of loved ones, or have either friends or family members who are experiencing a devastating illness.
And I have to tell you, this truly rips my heart out because I can’t bare to see anyone in pain. Whether it be physical, mental, or emotional.
I realize that pain, suffering, and losing people who are close to us is a part of life, and that we will all experience these things at one time or another. However, knowing this doesn’t make it any easier to accept and embrace while it’s happening.
We find ourselves lost, heart-broken, angry, uncertain, and desperately seeking answers.
It’s some painful shit to go through, isn’t it?
Perhaps it’s because I feel things on a very deep level, but whenever I hear of someone’s pain and suffering, I literally feel as if it’s happening to me.
I’m not a religious person, meaning I don’t belong to any organized religion, yet without a doubt believe in a Higher Power. I also believe that whatever effects one human being, affects us all. I believe we are all interconnected ‘energetically’ and that whatever we practice in the way of prayer or meditation can reach far and wide; helping those who are in need because energy has no boundaries.
And that’s how I envision a Higher Power. It is the source of the energy. So when we pray or meditate, the Higher Power delivers the energy to wherever it is needed.
We can’t always be sure of how our prayers or meditations are being used to help someone, but we CAN be sure that they are being used for the person’s highest good.
And I truly believe that.
This past week, I’ve been spending a lot of time sharing ’good vibes’ with the people in my life who are experiencing tremendous challenges right now. And not only with them, but with all those in world who might be going through things that are very difficult.
I may not be able to be with all these people in person, or even know them on a personal level, but it really doesn't matter because ‘good vibes’ will be felt.
So, I ask if you could all take a few minutes this weekend, and either pray or meditate, sending out LOVE to our fellow human beings in the world who could use some support.
And trust that your ‘good vibes’ are being received.....
