How often do you experience fear on a daily basis? Realistically, how can angels help you deal with fear?
I still remember my first day of school. I was so excited about learning and looking forward to having a new adventure. I remember my mom walking me to school, holding my hand. I knew I was safe and walked into that classroom with my head held high. I was so happy about being in school I smiled as my mom left. Most of the other children were crying and I remember the teacher asking me why I wasn't crying too. In hindsight I wasn't crying because I felt safe and viewed school as a big adventure.

Fearless Fridays: why do bad things happen
I so often hear these type of questions: "Why do bad things happen to good people? Why does God let a child die needlessly, a natural disaster kill or displace millions? Why does God allow violence? Why did God allow the earthquake in Haiti?"
Life is God's unconditional gift to us, the rest is just part of living here on planet earth and all of the events in life are incredible gifts. I believe we can use every event to either deepen our experience of oneness and our connection to the divine or enhance our filter system. A vengeful God that believes there is only one path to salvation or one that punishes people is one way to maintain our limiting beliefs and deepen our sense of isolation from the divine.
Let me explain ......

Fearless Friday: replacing fear with love
Last week I talked about the power of love and this week I am going to expand on that a bit more. Ultimately we have two choices; love or fear. When we choose one we ease out the other one.
When we open the front door at night the light rushes out and dispels the darkness. Love can do the same thing to fear if we let it. When you shine the light of love on any of your fears you see them differently, you can receive the gift of those fears and you can lovingly and gently let them go.

Fearless Fridays: Love
Happy 2010!
Fear is an absence of love. We can either focus on faith and love or doubt and fear. So rather than talk about fear on this first day of 2010 and I want to talk about love.
What is love really? There is our fear based limited love full of rules and conditions and then there is the unconditional love of the divine, that limitless, expansive, accepting love of God however you perceive that energy.

Fearless Fridays: fear of flying
I had no idea they had all sorts of names for fear of flying including aerophobia, aviatophobia, aviophobia or pteromerhanophobia. Oddly enough I overcame my fear by being in a commercial plane that almost crashed.

About Pele
Pele is the Hawaiian goddess of the volcano as well as the goddess of transformation, passion, vitality and creation. Pele is a powerful force on the Hawaiian islands. Shortly after I moved to Hawaii, a friend suggested I have my property blessed. I asked Pele if I could live and work on her land. She graciously agreed, so I always take time to thank her and ask for her blessing in my endeavors.
