"We can feel as though we will never experience anything new or good again because of all the storms that we have had to face. Just as the seasons change; God will change things in our lives too. We may be experiencing a season of winter, when everything in our lives seems so drab but just as winter comes to an end and spring once more begins; we too will eventually walk out of the winter moments in our lives and once more, we will begin to experience a new springtime in our hearts."

"As I get off the train at Neuhaus, I glance up at Burg Veldenstein standing guard over the village and am amazed at the progress that's been made. No longer a ruin, the old castle looks as solid as the day it was first built. I quicken my pace, eager to see the restoration up close...So you're off to Africa? Epenstein leads me into the fortress....I'll be in Kiel for a few weeks,  and then I'm heading to South West Africa as part of the Marine Expeditionskorps."

I am creativity. Truth and creativity are within me. Therefore, feeling blocked is not normal. My truth and creativity are within. I must use my creativity and share it with others in order to experience a complete life and a life filled with joy. Finding my expression is important. Each of us has a unique calling.

Love and compassion lives within us. It doesn't seek love. It just wants to express love. The love it expresses is always unconditional. This love doesn't criticize or judge others around us. Love can't exist where there is fear.

Centering Thought My power and strength are within. My power is limitless. The Creator has limitless power. He has put this same power within me. If I repeat this daily and come to believe it, I will be able to face the hard times that are a part of life. This thought is very comforting. When difficulties come, I don't want to appear like a big baby but like a strong woman full of faith and limitless power.

Day 2 Today I learned happiness is within me. Happiness comes from nothing external or around me because all that is outside me is fragile and can or will disappear or go away. If I find or depend on inner happiness, that can not be taken from me. It is always mine.So I am the source of unlimited happiness. It is easier for me to understand day 2 than day 1. I might have to go over the safety and security step again. I am happy to have the chance to take this meditation series for 21 days. Can't believe it's free to all who would like to join.
