Kamala does things differently than Shawn did. I love the energy I feel within me now that I’m stepping in to the carrying of this “new” name. And I relish the idea that for the rest of my life I can be called by a name I like, that feels good to me! Life’s really too short to go by a name that we don’t care for!

These are exciting times, aren’t they? Those of us who are being stirred have some wonderful work to do! And, boy, do I fantasize it being all “easy.” We’ll see!

We have to start valuing ourselves. We have to honor the light we carry and be willing to let it shine, vibrantly.

blessings,

kamala

Saying ‘yes’ to guidance

Last night I received an inner urging to go cut some roses and give them to the lovely Russian grandmother who lives across the street and always admires my roses.  This multi-generational family moved in a few years ago and last year the grandparents bought the home next door to the younger generations’ home.  They have worked day and night renovating the place…very hard-working people.  They have seemed to be very nice people, but I have not made a huge effort to befriend them.  Truthfully, I did not even know all their names.  So, offering the roses seemed a little way to be more neighborly.   When I crossed the street with the roses, the daughter was out in front and told me it was her mother’s birthday and she would love the roses!  Their front  door was open and when I called out to them, both of them came to the door and greeted me warmly.  As I was ushered in to the kitchen, I saw two dozen perfect, beautiful florist’s roses.  When I laughingly said she didn’t need my imperfect little bouquet, both of them replied that mine were “special.”   They proudly showed me around their home, all the improvements they had made, which were really lovely.  Our conversation was somewhat awkward, with their halting English and my almost non-existent Russian, but the connection was heartfelt and delightful.  It was such a blessing to have followed the guidance I’d received and to have made such a warm connection to my neighbors.

I often pray that I will get such clear and followable guidance.  I think perhaps I do get such guidance more often than I think, but that I don’t listen or don’t WANT to listen and follow through, for whatever reason.  After such a wonderful experience, I may change the prayer:  that I may hear and say ‘yes’ much more often!

INQUIRY

What is your experience with following guidance – or not listening?  Do good experiences make you want to say ‘yes’ more often?
