sponge people

It is not always easy being a sponge person.

I can walk anywhere where there are people

and pick up every single emotion.

When I had grown numb to life this had stopped (or I couldn't feel it).

When Jo helped me "wake Up" it brought the sponge thing back.

It freaked me out at first. I was totally getting sick being in large groups of people.

It was like sponge person over load. LOL.

I have had to retrain myself to accept the feelings of people but to not "wear" it (as Debby says).

Now, I see it as a gift. It is a gift of empathy. If I feel it is getting to me, I have to take a step back.

It is okay to feel everything. It is such a gift to be able to understand others.

Everything requires balance, but balance is good.

Thanks for reading!!!!!!
Any other sponge people out there?

a soul picture


It is best to take a cue

from children

live in the moment

have fun

swing and

feel the wind

laugh

make the soul smile and

take a picture

to always

remember the feeling

Have a FUN Saturday!!!

standing in the storm

How hard is it to
stand still in a storm
feeling the wind
it wants to move you
keep you head clear
until
you can be one with
the wind and
see the path

Tears


Water is good

after a rain

everything seems greener

cleaner

tears are the same

after a good cry

the soul feel better

more vibrant

cleaner from the tears



It is much healthier to feel and cry and move on, than to not feel at all.

in the storm

a rainbow

writing


When I don't know what to write

I have to be still

and listen

It will come to me

a little

at a time

until I can

feel the poem

or see

the picture

in my mind

friendship


there should be no one

walking on the path alone

We can all be there for each other

we can be angel friends

lift up some one today

who needs it

love and true friendship

will be returned like

an encouraging circle

sometimes all it takes is a smile

Thanks all my friends!! I am so blessed!! I am so thankful for my online friends too who have become so much more than "online" friends to me!!!

Debby, your strength continues to amaze me even after all these years!!!

SPARKLE


Let's be the SPARKLE

in someone else's day!

The Moon

The moon so gorgeous
so high in the sky
people all see it
at different times
It connects us really
though we don't know how
We all feel the beauty
and
sense the peaceful presence
If we just
sit back and look


Enjoy the beautiful gifts!!

I won't forget

to be glad

for all the blessings

I have had

life is full

of surprises

good

and bad..........

I'm thankful for the lessons and for the journey

SHINE


Don't forget to let your light shine!!

following the path


to follow the path

can be hard

when

you can't see the outcome

when you can't map

the way

but

follow the peace

understand the experience

feel the journey

it will be

okay

the Blocks


take out a piece
clean it off
put it back
maybe eventually
the black will leave

one by one the pieces
will start to shine
a little at first
but they will get stronger
and more illuminated
with time……

a new day


Every day is a chance to start over

a chance to make a difference

a chance to move away from fear

what is holding you back

let it go

take baby steps

toward the sun

feel the warmth

on your face

you are important

and can be used by God

to help other sweet souls

in need
