Most powerful wireless connection

I have come to realize that I do not find the signs,

the signs find me.

Today, most people are looking for

the fastest wireless connection.

Companies advertise how theirs is

the latest and greatest.

They are not.

Prayer has been, is and will always be

the fastest and the greatest connection

known to humankind, and it's

UNLIMITED &

FREE TO EVERYONE.

There have been

thousands and thousands

of views of this site and

hundreds of stones given out

which adds up to

an incredible community of support

that grows every day

for all of us.

My prayer practice is not planned out.

Every time our community pops into my head

(which is many times throughout each day)

I pray, my prayers vary in the thought

although they never vary in the power

with which I send them out to you.

Many folks have shared that their prayers

include our ministry daily as well.

Open your mind,

Listen for the prayer......

When SOS pops into your mind

that IS spirit letting you know

that we are all with you.

We share with you;

Our love, our kindness, our compassion,

our sorrow in your frustration and loss,

and our joy in your triumphs.

May you feel that power

hovering over you

today and always

Peace be with you,

Kristyn

A matter of time

Mindfulness means

focusing on being present,

embracing where you are

at any given moment.

Not looking back,

not looking forward.

Simply focusing on exactly

where you are.

When the past is too much

to bear &

and the future seems

so far away.

Focus your attention on

right now.

Most people do not experience

peace in their lives

at all times.

Learning to find as much peace

as possible takes practice.

I found this tiny little leaf (1/2" at best)
laying right there on my path
waiting to be found, right when I needed it most

Peace is something that

can grow within you.

Outside sources may give

you instant gratification,

however, that feeling goes away

as quickly as it comes.

True peace is finding a place

of comfort and security

within yourself, without the

need for something outside.

Take a deep breath and believe

that one moment can change

anything and everything.

If at first you don't succeed

try and try again.

Yesterday is gone

tomorrow will be here

before you know it.

This very moment is all you
really have control over.

Choose the path toward

happiness & peace
you may see a 'little' love
waiting just for you

just for today.

Begin today & end todayknowing you ARE loved

and prayed for

right now!

The light came before the light

Biblically speaking

on the first day God created light.

God saw the light was good

and separated the light from the darkness

It was not until the 4th day

that God created

the sun, moon and stars

(the physical lights)

The mystical light of the first day

is within us all.

We all have the ability to

let our light shine.

Most faith traditions
reference a kind of "light"

within us, it is the goodness that

the divine places in all of us all

on the day of our birth.

In some it is buried deep under darkness,

however, I believe it is there....

waiting to be lit and rise to the surface.

Today and always look to the light,

it is there, for you and for me

and for all who believe

in the light which is

goodness

kindness

& compassion

Let your light shine for

the peace

it provides you,

the peace

it provides others

and the peace

it puts into the universe

Darkness will not prevail,

never has,

never will

Heavenly light,

I thank you for shining

the warmth of your love

on me and all creation.

Help us to store that light

within our souls

so that we may embrace it

and share it with others.

PEACE, LIGHT & LOVE

BE WITH YOU ALWAYS

Kristyn

These figures come from an article on an online town news page that was covering the heroin epidemic in our state. It is an increase from last year and expected to continue to rise. This is only through June and these are only the overdose deaths, this figure does not include the overdoses that survived or the thousands of folks who are actively using who could end up on this list at any time. The numbers are truly staggering and cause me an insurmountable amount of sadness.

When I found out Hillary was using heroin I said, "absolutely not, there is no way. Heroin is for the homeless and people who live in inner cities". "Regular people like us, don't do stuff like that."  I could not have been more wrong. Take a look at the list below and understand that these are your towns, your family and friends, same as they are mine. It is NOT your problem until it is YOUR problem.

I took care of my daughter, loved her more than life itself and it happened to her. I say "happened" because the initial choice to use the first time may have been hers, however the choices after that were made by the disease and unfortunately no one knows who suffers with the disease lying dormant until it is too late.

No ONE chooses a life that hurts for no reason, addiction is not fun and parties and getting high.  Addiction is pain, suffering and the need for the drug that becomes just as important as the NEED for breath and water.

                                            Another sign

I have experienced the loss caused by this disease in Ben and so many others I have met along this road and the gain in the continued recovery of my daughter.

If you are in the throws of addiction and reading this, know there are many who love you and know you are more than a number on s list.

If you are a loved one of someone who suffers with this disease, know there are many who love you too, you are most certainly NOT alone in your suffering.

May the spirit and energy

that is

loving,

kind

and compassionate

in this world

bring you healing and peace

today and always

XOX Kristyn
