Pay it Forward Wave of Good

I love the idea of a WAVE of GOOD flowing all around the earth.  We can make this happen in so many ways.  As you know on May 5th the WAVE will be walking as ONE at 1pm with people of all faiths, cultures, ethnicities on labyrinths all around the world. This walking meditation of Peace and intention of Love and Healing can have a dramatic affect on everyone and Mother Earth.
There is another WAVE of GOOD coming on Wednesday, April  25th because it is
PAY IT FORWARD DAY.   I loved the precious movie, “Pay It Forward” where a little boy with a limited time to live, has one request, PAY good forward.  Do something for another person without expectation of return.
Here is a lovely story of a coffee shop in Canada where everyone, almost, paid for someone elses coffee.
April 25th is PAY it FORWARD DAY

Mon., Dec. 31
For three full hours and 228 orders, a generous chain of Tim Hortons customers in Winnipeg
picked up the tab for the people behind them.”It was an avalanche of kindness,”
coffee chain spokeswoman Michelle Robichaud told the Star on Monday.Paying it forward isn’t uncommon at Timmie’s, she said, but no one had ever seen anything like this.
It started at about 10 a.m. at the drive-through window at Tim Hortons on Beaverhill Blvd.
in Winnipeg on Dec. 21. Light snow had been falling all morning, there were four shopping days until Christmas and  the temperature was minus-13.5C.
“There was a lot of excitement inside the restaurant. Staff were shouting out numbers like,
 “It’s up to 147!” said Robichaud. Eventually, someone who had their four coffees paid for decided to break the chain and pulled away without paying for the three coffees behind him.
“There were more guests in line,” said Robichaud. “Who knows what their motivation was?”
April 25,  is International Pay it Forward Day.

This Wednesday, wherever you are and whatever you are doing, be mindful of people
around you.
Can you do an act of kindness?
Can you pay for someone’s coffee at Starbucks?
Can you pay for someone’s groceries in line?  Can you bring food to a local shelter?
Can you bring books you no longer read and give them to the library?
Can you weed out clothes that no longer serve you and give them away to someone who needs them now?
Can you make a sign for you car saying PAY IT FORWARD DAY!
Find at least ONE thing to be a part of the WAVE of Good and do it.
Enjoy your day!!!
Paying it Forward……..

Walking on Holy Ground

Dear Friends,
April 21st is Earth Day. I reflected on Mother Earth in my meditation this morning.
I felt so appreciative of this creative Mother Soul that holds us all on her loving ground.
It reminded me how holy the ground is, as we walk on her.
Do we pay attention to all the beauty that springs forth from her? Do we appreciate all the trees, flowers, plants, shrubs, bushes and water?


Mother Earth gives us food and nourishes every living thing.
I view beautiful hills and valleys behind my house and I am so grateful I have that view. It uplifts me in my morning prayers. With the news and all the drama and happenings on
this planet, she calms me after a busy day.
She supplies the path for me to walk, or ride on. I feel loved by her and in turn I love her.


How can we acknowledge our gratitude for Mother Earth and the living things close to her?
Pickup any trash you see as you walk by.
Pick up snails slowing moving on the street and place them softly on the ground
and grass.                                                                                                                           Thank her for her beauty and place where you are standing, walking or riding
(car or bike).
Recycle and begin to use more earth based cleaners and supplies.
Remember Mother Earth is a living breathing soul created by Source and here only to benefit ‘man-womankind.’
Let us be KIND to her. Hug her trees. Love her beauty. Care for her gently.


Loving our Mother,
Abigail

 

Spring Cleaning

Dear Friends,
It is Spring! I love this season. Even in California, we have our “winter,” maybe not as severe as the mid-west or east coast, however we still have a change in weather.
I love to see the tulips, the lilies the lilacs, the jacaranda trees and all the new growth blooming. Even the air smells good. Spring is the time of the year where we can start anew, and bloom again.
Where is it you would like to start anew? I am sure there are times in your lives when you “wished” you had said something, done something or been someone better.
Now is the time! You do not have to BE the old you. You can BE the NEW you.
It is like cleaning out closets in the Spring only it is cleaning out Consciousness. It is letting go of what no longer serves you. An old Consciousness based on fear, unworthiness, and sadness only holds you back. Being unforgiving blocks your good as well.
Ernest Holmes said,
“Change the consciousness and the false condition will disappear.”
What ever it is, it is time to Spring Clean Consciousness, and change those old tapes, thoughts and feelings. Allow the fresh air to blow in and breathe in the flow of love, wholeness, goodness, growth and God’s blessings
Lovingly Blooming,
Abigail
