I came across this poem, 'Love After Love' by Derek Walcott, and I liked it so much I am sharing it here. Actually, the poem inspired me to stand in front of the mirrow and speak to myself as if I were my best friend....I was amazed at the things I said, and the powerfullness of the emotions that I felt.....It was a powerful, and wonderful and comforting and enjoyable experience.....try it for yourself and you will know.....
The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

The day my typically stressful activities lost their punch!
My angels arrived again last night and enveloped me in their peace.....Sometimes I get weird thoughts like I don't deserve so much attention and blessings from angels and then I have to shake them away only to realize that it is only because of thoughts like these that I wasn’t soaking up all the bountiful blessings and gods infinite grace all these years......
Today morning, after I did my pranayama (yogic breathing), I saw my third eye clearly for the first time in my life- Magical, alive, surrounded with love and light and overflowing with loving kindness. Yup! , this should be a big day, big thing for me.....but strangely I am not surprised with all the miracles unfolding recently. It feels but only natural .....and my happiness of seeing and being with my open third eye for some time is much diffused with my generic happiness with life and with being. I received clarity from this third eye of a holiday booking that I had been unduly stressing about, and I also got clarity on why really this holiday planning activity was stressing me at un-understandably high levels. I understood consciously what I have always known about ‘communing with nature’ being a key component of my personal mission and life’s work. I realized that by pushing this strong desire (to organize and participate in natural camps and programs in outdoor surroundings with a focus on communing with nature), aside and away year after year I had built up this very powerful ball of resentment and frustration within me, and that this ball of energy surfaced whenever I touched on the topics related with ‘opportunities to commune with nature’. This is why I was getting so swept up in the whirlwind of positive and negative emotions of desire, fear, apprehension and resentment each time I tried to plan a holiday. There was no way out….I had to roll up my sleeves at some point and jump in to start addressing this life’s calling. That was the best and most wise outlet for this huge ball of energy…………so I got up and went and signed up for a family camp in the wild. It’s just a start but it is in close alignment to what I would want to be organizing by myself sometime in the future so I was intuited by my angels and third eye that it was a good first step to take. Once I did this, I felt free to go on with booking a second holiday which was a simple holiday for my extended family, and I did not feel the need to incorporate and deal with all my strong energies related to picking, ‘the perfect natural surrounding’….etc. which had been interfering with allowing me to plan and book the holiday. Today has been a landmark achievement for me. It might seem very simple to some others but I have done a ton of things I normally get very stressed about (without stressing at all). Footwear shopping (something I tend to put off for years), lunch with a colleague (if you knew me you would know how I typically dread social lunches), and holiday booking ( my biggest challenge in life in the last several years)! Wow…three consecutive successful hits!.....and the day is only getting better with each passing hour….
I am grateful for having such a wonderful day.......
I am grateful for feeling the presence of my angels so distinctly today
I am grateful for love and for life
I am grateful for making the holiday booking with such confidence
I am grateful for being nice to Gang and taking him to lunch and I am grateful we had such a good time at it and I'm grateful my angels came along as well
I am grateful for keeping my commitment
I am grateful for acting like an angel myself
I am grateful for the booking agent who was so sweet and helpful (like an angel)....such a pleasant and stress less experience it was....
I am grateful for my angels coming shopping with me and intuitively leading me to spot and try these amazing running shoes and comfortable and pretty sandals that were at a reduced price ....I am so so amazed because shopping has never been so easy and stress less for me especially shoe shopping.....:-)
I am grateful for my angels around me and for being able to allow the angel within me to surface....
It’s such a nice feeling to give myself the permission to be nice and happy and to actually catch myself being genuinely nice to others for a change and to see myself choosing to be happy as a default state, moment by moment....
Sending my lovely readers much love and much hugs......go be happy and free....today and EVERYDAY! :-)

Angel visits
I am making leaps and bounds towards being more and more an angel myself the more I
invite angels to my home. Like a friend remarked, more joy, fun, and
laughter....not to mention all the positive energy surrounding the
wishes I make each time and the miracles that unfold with regard to
the wishes. I am sorry I have not been able to write and share these
miracles and experiences,...because the pace of miracles and wondrous
things is blowing me away! I am just so busy soaking it all up and
going with the flow....keeping pace with the current and all the
wonderful things I'm being motivated to do......is about all I manage
to.......:-). I feel weird because I used to really like to be able to
spell out and write about each wondrous insight, event, or
miracle.....but here I am just being blown and flown
away.....:-).....my insides being churned and cleansed......and so
much grace pouring into my being!
