Rainy Days

Rain, Rain go away little _________ wants to play.

I remember as a little girl my sisters, friends, and I use to sing this song. Even though I was surrounded by my brothers and sisters on rainy days when we had to stay inside I would sometimes feel sad, lonely and empty in my mind and heart.
The winter rainy days were the saddest, especially if the rain fell on a Tuesday or a Thursday. Because for a brief period of time my mother worked outside of the home in the evening on those two days. You see, when Mom wasn’t home the house just didn’t feel right, nor did I.

Then I would sit and sing and look deeply into myself while having conversation with myself and God for long periods of …show more content…
I know now that I laughed not only because I did feel better, but also because I was coming out of a zone, a meditation. For a period of time I was in my own little world where it was just me and the Divine One. I was in the right now moment where nothing else matter. So, when my father would speak out to me I wasn’t aware of anyone looking or paying me any attention.
Now let me explain I was aware of who I was and where I was at. I knew I was in my shared bedroom and in my house, but I also knew I was in a safe place, a haven where I was free to explore and sing and just “be”. Be with myself and connected with my higher self, my soul, my Creator. Exploring the realms of your higher self is a place/space where there is an open invitation for you to play also!
We all have this connection with the Universe, and just like you, I too experience my energy fields becoming blocked, clouded, and invaded as well. Sometimes by my very own thoughts and sometimes by other people’s energy fields that carries all of their stuff.

    This night was to be unusual, for as I fell asleep I found myself in a nightmare, but not an ordinary one; not one that people fear because of an imminent demise, but instead fear of reflection. I lie my head against my pillow that night with no idea what was to happen, but the dream coming would change my perspective… permanently. I found as I awoke in a new reality, I was heading to an unknown destination on a airplane. Looking out the window, the skies shined with pure sunlight, and that sunlight bouncing off the misty clouds that ran on the horizon like the hills. Upon finished descent of the plane, I exited to find myself in an unfamiliar place, and in the middle of my confusion, a phone call came in.…
