Hi Andrea. Love the balance you're putting in your posts and so reflective of life in general; there's the great and the not so great. I'm gutted I missed the meeting. They're on at 3pm and 3am for me and amazingly it's usually the 3am one I make! I love this forum as when I was unable to get to my f2f's, MIP kept me going. I've only been here maybe a month now but we only have one local f2f a week and I can have two a day now if I want. How marvellous is that?! Thanks for posting, we love you too.
I was in that meeting, too Andrea. I felt the love too. We all know that saying, "whenever two or more are gathered in my name, I am with you" The energy of God consciousness as each of us understand it to be, expands when we let go of the perceptions of our own limitations, and simply let it be. To the extent that we do that, our meetings, our friendships, our own lives, will continue to grow in the love and appreciation with which we choose to invest into it.
We know so much illness, sickness, negativity and the circumstances, reprocussions and pain that come with it. It is such a wonderful relief and magical suprise to actually feel love and warmth during the sharing of hope, openness and care for one another. As it isn't a surprise to come to the "room" and find people hurting, sick, and sad, it shouldn't be such a surprise, to "look" at each other some days and say, wow, I feel love happening here! Love is happening here, and I have a growing intention to be grateful for it, open to it, and happy in it, with you!
Thank you for inspiring me to reply, my first post of any kind.
So glad you came back to us. I always look foward to your support and love, and trying to get me into trouble! That was a great meeting. There will be many more to come.
Love and blessings to you and yours.
Live strong,
Karilynn and Pipers Kitty
