Beloved masters, every sentient Soul must follow his/her own particular destiny, a specially designed path that leads to illumination and reintegration with his/her Divine Self.  The lessons you are learning and perfecting will be your contribution to the whole.  Within these seemingly painful experiences are the jewels of wisdom you will need to fulfill your particular segment of the grand design.  So do not judge yourself or your progress by that of other people.  Do not gaze on others in awe or with envy at the talents and gifts they have mastered and manifested, for within you are treasures just as great awaiting discovery.

As summer unfolds before our eyes in all of its various hues of neon greens and pastel colors of flowers in bloom, we all get out in nature more and often find a spot that brings us peace and comfort. We get out and stretch our legs and breathe deeply the fresh air and sit quietly with our earth mother. Being in these power spots brings us back in touch with the things that matter in our lives, it balances our priorities and reminds us to be humble. We may find a path through flowering fields and old fences, perhaps a brook or pond and stands of tall elderly trees whose energy recharges ours and embraces our souls. These are magical places much like the ones we discovered in our youth and escaped to every chance we got. We built tree forts and created whole lives separate from the ones we lived at home. Close friends knew about them and were sworn to secrecy much like taking blood brother vows. Now as adults we view these magic places differently but feel the same energy from them. As a child they held wonder and power, as adults they replenish us and provide us with calm and peace within.
