BurningBright - A Soul Journey to Truth

Hello Brave Heart Community. After an absense of close to a year, I am happy to start tuning in again. It's been a year of change and transformation (again!). I've re-located and taken a shift in the direction of my life. What seemed at first to be a complete change is now revealing itself as a more targeted path towards my original vision. I'll share more later, but let me say I am very pleased with the direction of my life...forgiveness lessons and returning more to my true self. Pieces are coming into place...slowly but surely undoing all that no longer serves me.... helping me to be both humbled and elevated to my authentic self.
I have plenty of news to share and exciting events to partake in...details coming very soon!

For many years I have not bothered with making any New Year's resolutions because I felt they weren't really that important. This year I am remembering that out intentions are a powerful thing. To make a resolution is just that ...to RE - Solution...(resolving...bringing experiences into a state of completion and release to allow a moving forward) It's a way of setting an resolve or an intention for a positive shift to occur. So this year, I am re-solution-ing...taking a different approach to making sure that I don't keep repeating or re-creating the very experiences that I have been desiring to change. It's already working!!!

Do you find yourself questioning what your life is really for? Do you look for a deeper purpose in your journey? Do you feel sometimes that you're walking on a treadmill or rollercoaster never seeming to get to the place where you want to be?

I asked myself those same questions. While experiencing so much turmoil and heartbreak I started exploring deeper into my own heart and what I found was a life so full of magic and wonder and deeply inspiring heart connections that my life started to make perfect sense. I want to share that with you because maybe my life journey will speak to your heart as well.

My book, "Obscurity In Your Face" is a story of the actual raw experiences of the inner journey of a little girl in search of who she really is. In the middle of an average dysfunctional family slowly crumbling under the weight of alcoholism, betrayal, abuse, neglect, and utter frustration with life, one little girl dares to think outside the confines of what being human means. Told through the eyes of an innocent child and later through the yearning heart of a weary soul, this story captures the message of hope that nearly everyone is seeking. It accomplishes its purpose by stating the simple truth about the stories we create to keep us stuck in the illusions we’ve created to maintain our comfort zones of who we think we are.

So if you're interested in having a read and would like to have a copy, please contact me directly at soulspace1@hotmail.com and we can arrange to get it to you.

Looking forward to sharing with you. Thanks, Nancy

In reading an entry by Debra (Honoring Your Truth) "When the cat's away the mice will play", I am given a brilliant reminder about the blessing in truly seeing my brother. A Course in Miracles reminds us that what we see in the other is what we are mirroring from ourselves...so if I am looking in judgement, it is my own imprisonment. What a blessing it is to look into the soul of another and see only the beauty and clearness of Divine Creation there. Really, it is I who am free by honoring my brother's truth. At the height of this Christmas season, I have been feeling weary with the conflict I see around my family...feeling like retreating into solitude to find that sense of peace ...now I am reminded that it isn't something to be hoarded and protected within my own heart but to be mirrored and extended outwardly to my brother. If I am seeing conflict in my brother, it is because I have not openly extended my own heart. AAhhh...how lovely it is to be offered a gentle nudge back to alignment with truth! Thank you.

I suppose like many women I often find myself stopping and questioning what the heck all this is for. What am I really all about? How do I fully express my womanness, my feminine, my strength, my dignity, my integrity...and do all this without compromising the core of who I am? For a long time I thought that okay so I am pretty...big whoop! So I have a few talents...big whoop! So I happen to be an ordinary woman who is pretty, talented, and desires some of the same thing every other woman in the world desires...big whoop! I always thought that what I had to say was really not that special or that how I lived, breathed, processed, functioned was really nothing so extraordinary...Guess what? I learned that I am extraordinary!!! Extra- Ordinary... Every woman who takes the time to ask herself those questions is extraordinary. Every woman who embraces her sensuality, sexuality, feminity, masculinity, diversity, integrity, autonomy, inter-dependence, and also her dependence, reliance, softness, vulnerability....is Extra -Ordinary! I learned that at the very point where I let go and 'end' the assumptions about who I am and what I am here for is the very point at which I become fully aware and open to beginning a journey of my truth to see, embrace, and love ALL aspects of me.
