The divine inner child

Aloha everyone,

When I first moved to Hawaii I held classes on healing the inner child. Interestingly enough 20 years later I was asked to speak at a The Center for Spiritual Living in Waikoloa on the month that the theme is the divine child. So I decided to speak about the divine inner child. Funny how things come full circle.

Whenever I am asked to speak I begin to meditate on the topic and I am often pleasantly surprised by what comes up. I may try to record the talk and post an MP3 on my web site.

I know most of my readers live all over the world, but for you lucky few that do live in Hawaii I invite you to join me on December 6th, at 9:30 AM. The service begins with a meditation. The Center for Spiritual Living meets at the Waikoloa Elementary School Library (at the end of Paniolo Avenue in Waikoloa Village). Meditation begins at 9:30 a.m. Regular services begin at 10:00 a.m.

  • December 6, 2009 at 9:30 a.m
  • Center for Spiritual Living
  • Waikoloa Elementary School Library
  • Waikoloa, HI on the Big Island

Hope to see some of you there. And by all means pass the message along.

With love and aloha,
Susan

Charter for compassion: angels in action

Aloha,

Yesterday I challenged you to do several random acts of kindness and then today I received a message about an organization called Charter for Compassion.

This is their mission:

A call to bring the world together...

The principle of compassion lies at the heart of all religious, ethical and spiritual traditions, calling us always to treat all others as we wish to be treated ourselves. Compassion impels us to work tirelessly to alleviate the suffering of our fellow creatures, to dethrone ourselves from the centre of our world and put another there, and to honor the inviolable sanctity of every single human being, treating everybody, without exception, with absolute justice, equity and respect.

But how can this affect your life if you are unemployed, underemployed, having health challenges or just simply afraid? Read on.....

Ordinary angels: random acts of kindness

Aloha,

I ran across this story the other day and it reminded me of my road angels. One day my car broken down in a tunnel where people regularly drove 60 MPH. I was almost hit and two men in a pick up pulled up in front of me, hooked on a rope and pulled my car to safety. They left before I could even say thank you. I know they saved me from having a terrible accident.

This angel saved Janel a lot of heartache. Random acts of kindness make us feel better, help another person, even if we remain anonymous and definitely make the world a better place. I challenge you to do two good deeds this week.

Fearless Fridays: following your bliss

Aloha,

Fear stops us from following our bliss.  Actually, fear stops us from doing a lot of things that bring us happiness and joy. Fear can be overwhelming, but here are some simple things you can do to free yourself from fear's relentless grip.

Miracles and angel biscuits

Aloha,

I ran across a blog post I really liked the other day about miracles by emettruth.

In Jewish tradition, the word we translate "miracle" is nes. A nes is a sign, like a flag, waiving above a building or a marker, drawing your attention to something special.

I thought about the idea of miracles as flag posts or markers of the special things in our lives and as I looked at my life, I saw a lot of miracles. What if you saw everything special in your life as a miracle? How would that make you feel about your life? Play with the idea and see what happens.

Fearless Fridays: ordinary angels

I ride my bike along the waters edge each day and see so many ordinary angels. I watch the parents walking with their young children, teaching them about life. I watched a young mother teach her young boy about kindness and gentleness while they feed the birds.

Angel songs and nightmares

This morning I wake up dreaming about my father's last few breaths and feeling myself dying, a pretty nightmarish experience. As I woke up I heard the lyrics "Hark the herald angels singing" which was very comforting.

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.
