Often at this time of year I think of the meaning of being here in this human form living this human life. I am grateful for a season to reflect and realign with the reasons for life or as many describe it, “the meaning of life”. I believe in the soul and think each of us as spirits walking this earth in human form to learn and experience life in order for our souls energy to learn what it is to have free will and to live life making choices each day that involve using that free will to do good or bad with whatever decisions are placed in our path.
I also believe that we have lives that we are given to us that include tests or ordeals that we need to live in order to understand what life is from all aspects and all levels.
We are here to experience the good, the bad, the easy and the hard elements of being human. The energy that is our life soul is here in order to understand what it is to love or be unloved, to give or be the one who is in need , to help or to intentionally do harm during this human experience
How else can we truly grasp what it is to be loved or alone, to be happy or sad or live a good life of comfort and ease as well as one of pain and struggle? We have to experience human life in order for the energy that is our soul or our spirit to grow and one day move on to another level of existence that is not the school room of human life on planet earth.
With this kind of thinking the involvement of having guidance or help from those who we spent time with on this earth continuing to connect with us from their spirit form makes sense. Knowing our trips to this earth is and has been to learn the lesson of good and evil makes me realize and rationalize why there are so many people living all kinds of different levels of human existence all together on this confusing planet. We are all here to experience the many levels and forms of being human. It leaves us with a combination of people from the rich and spoiled to being born in to terrible poverty all living on one chaotic planet. How else can we explain the severe extremes of those living the human experience all together on one planet at the same time? You can find those living like Kings and others in the worst conditions at the bottom of the human existence. We live it here on this earth and may return many times until we taste it all as well as until we understand and make the right choices rather than the selfish ones that we encounter each and every moment we are on earth in a human form living the human experience.
Our loved ones may stay watching from their spirit form or they may now be in a form of a guide to our spirit as the cycle of our energy follows the endless journey of growth that we are given by creation as a soul that is part of something far bigger and far greater and enormous that we can only begin to grasp it
We are only now just beginning to grasp our place in space, in this solar system, in this galaxy that exists in this universe. I find it impossible for me to believe that the incredible energy of each of us is something that is meaningless or not part of something bigger.
The moment of conception is one that starts with a jolt of energy that occurs as the sperm connects with the egg, It may happen a day or so after the sexual act but when the egg and sperm do connect it sets off the miracle of life with what appears to me to be a tiny jolt of energy that explodes with the connection of sperm and egg beginning the process of cells dividing and forming a new life. For me this is an incredible moment.
We now can watch and know that this energy of life does happen and is what begins the start of or possibly the entrance of the soul that begins the creation of another soul and another human life form. That spark of energy continues with us as we grow and keeps us alive until it is time for that energy or electric of life to leave the human body allowing that energy to move on and our human experience to end,
Since energy never dissipates instead only changes form the miracle of life seems logical and reasonable to me to be all about our soul, our spirits journey which is as large and diversified as this universe.
I do not believe the energy that is human life leaves our bodies and stays earth bound to sink in to the earth to grow plants or any other similar ideas I have heard by those who cannot grasp or believe in more or larger purposes for our souls. We are spirits of the energy of all things created and our journey is endless and part of a huge system called creation.
I intend to do my best while living my human life to understand and absorb everything thrown at me or shown to me during the time I live my life. I try my best to do the right things and stand up to and against evil. I believe in family and love and growth and despise hatred jealousy and selfishness. I love traditions that keep family connected and feel sad for those who do not and cause pain to others and cause family problems or simply are self-centered and cold in their hearts.
The Holiday Season now upon us should be used for us all to come together in family and friend groups to celebrate the blessings we do have and to be thankful for those who love us and the good they do find in their lives. It is also a time to look for ways to improve our lives with the New Year ahead and to make an effort to help others not hurt them especially the ones we love and live our lives with each and every day. Success is wonderful however once you have all you need and want for nothing use that time and success to be the one who does not just keep buying more but the one who buys one for that person you know who has none and may be suffering . Be the one who buys them that warm coat or a refrigerator full of food.
I am sure many of you will think me the fool however I know that I have guardians, spirits and family souls who have passed on watching over me and I am grateful and happy to know that the energy of my spirit will one day continue on.
I wish you all a wonderful life. I know that life will be full of hard choices and hope we all meet them with the right roads taken and right decision made.
We are all about to enter a New Year filled with new roads, May peace and love fill your paths and choices ahead..

Often I have listened to those who believe in the power of angels, guides and spiritual powers giving us signs when we ask for help, answers or guidance.
I have heard stories of people seeing certain birds or flowers, words or hearing sounds as a sign that those they are speaking to in different realms or dimensions hear them. I know that people exchange certain words with loved ones to use with mediums to those who have passed over to the other side.
I have known all my life that those who pray often ask to be shown a sign that they are heard or that things will be OK. I can recall my own family members asking to be given a sign that we would survive a family crisis or for a loved one to make it past a serious health issue.
I realize that this goes on all the time with people all over the world but I really did not see it happen first hand until just recently. I am beginning to think if you live long enough and pay attention to the world and people around you -eventually you will experience many things that others seem to miss. I am grateful for all my experiences and will now add this one to those I can only categorize as unknown.
I belong to a large Irish family. One of my relatives is a very spiritual woman who spends a great deal of time talking to and praying to her creator and her angels. She is strong in her relationship with those who guide her and truly feels heard and helped when she reaches out for the help of her spiritual guides.
Another member of our family was seriously ill and due to have a dangerous difficult operation. Everyone was concerned for this family member. .
A day or so before the surgery was to take place a few of my brothers and sisters along with three cousins and two aunts all went to lunch together. We were in the habit of doing this often as it was a easy way to keep the family news flowing with so many of us spread out with large families of our own.
During this lunch visit my spiritual relative told us she had been praying for our family member who was about to have his extremely dangerous operation. She told us we all had to join hands and ask those who help and guide us to look out for him as he was still needed by his family and losing him would be a tremendous tragedy. We joined hands and prayed as a family. Just before ending the request for help given out to the universe and those who look over us our spiritual relative added “ And please give us a sign today that you have heard our request and that you are there looking over our family”.
We all whispered amen and began to look over our menus to order lunch. As we sat talking about what to eat one of my brothers was nagging at another one to move out of his way from the table, as he wanted to get something out of his car. We all shoved around to let my one brother make his way from the table. He had been sitting against a wall. When he finally got free of the table and walked away his chair was left empty exposing the wall behind him. The rest of us remained glued to our menus until a cousin sitting facing the spot my brother had just moved from blurted out “Oh good God – I don’t believe it”. We all looked at her and followed her eyes, which were round stunned and looking at the spot where my brother had been sitting against the wall. There on the wall behind where my brother had been sitting was an 8×10 photo stuck on the wall of two people sitting at a picnic table. As soon as I looked at it I also murmured a loud “Oh my God!”
The rest of my family all looked closely at what we were looking at and the Oh my Gods followed around the table. We all sort of sat there a bit stunned for a few seconds. With that my brother who had gone out to his car returned and stood looking at us looking at the wall. He took a look and gave a startled loud “OH MY GOD”, of his own.
There on the wall was a picture of two people sitting at a picnic table who looked exactly like our grandparents. At first we were sure it was them. We took down the picture to examine it. It took us a few minutes to figure out if it was or wasn’t our grandmother and grandfather. The people looked exactly like our grandparents. It was simply incredible.
My spiritual relative then stood up and said “ That’s our sign- everything is going to be OK for us all for awhile” She took the photo in her hands and said to the couple in the picture “Thanks Nana and Pop- we knew you were watching over us” She then looked at us all and said, “Any questions from any of you doubting Thomas’s? We all just sort of sat there a bit shocked at the entire scenario.
Our grandparents had doubles. Exact doubles that happened to also be married to each other as our grandparents were. They also somehow just so happened to have a photo of them stuck on the wall where we were just praying to those who looked over us.
We searched the rest of the walls in the restaurant and did not find one other photo of anyone anywhere. Only that one photo was stuck on the wall behind my brother’s chair.
We took the photo with us and went back to my oldest siblings house that kept all the family photos in her attic. We wanted to check our own memories and find some old photos of our grandparents to compare to the one we found on the wall in the restaurant.
This is the really incredible part of the story in my eyes. Not only did we find a box filled with photo’s of our grandparents. We found an 8×10 of our grandparents sitting at a picnic table exactly like the couple from the restaurant. When we held both pictures side by side- they were almost identical. The people in the picture found at our table in the restaurant were doubles of our grandparents without question.
Now I know many will simply mark this up to coincidence. For me, well I gave up on chalking up lots of things to coincidence and lean more towards reason. I believe things happen as they are suppose to and that this event happened so we would know things for our family at this point in time were going to be OK.
Our sick relative recovered from his delicate surgery and he is doing well. In fact the entire family is doing well right now. I think about my grandparents and know that they were kind loving caring people who were a gift to us all. I think they heard us that day and maybe even had lunch with us at our table leaving us a sign- things would be OK.
Take from our encounter with this strange event what you will. For this woman and her family it gave us comfort, love and the knowledge that praying or asking the universe to help you or look over those you love in life works. I often talk to those who may guide me and look over me. I will also never doubt those who tell me they were given a sign or dismiss the fact that they were heard.
Remember; although our loved ones have crossed over they also may be watching us finish our tour of duty here on the big blue ball of life! I have given up my doubting Thomas status and will admit- I am a believer!

**************************************************
A few years ago I talked to a Alan Wilks who wrote the book Angelic Wisdom and Light. Alan’s book is about angels. Alan explains that not only do angels walk with us , he is sure we all have them around each and every one of us.
This Angel man is an inspiration. That is the best way I can describe him. Alan is a bright man who clearly understands the world of our angel counterparts or guides in life. Alan explained to me that each of us is born with angels who help, guide and stay with us during our life on this earth.
Being a fan of the idea we all have help along the way during our experience on earth I wanted to talk with Alan about the angels during Christmas time. I think we all have encountered times in life we felt confused or lost to find a sudden knowledge come over us so we knew what to do. Some may think this just their extreme intelligence shinning through. I think that intelligence and some of the answers we need in life do come to us by way of our guiding angels.
Alan talked with me about the laws of balance in this universe. It is known that we have in all things a positive and negative, a light and dark, a right and wrong, and a good and evil. It seems a opposite of all things is needed to provide balance. Balance seems to be a needed and natural state for life to exist yet it seems to be the very thing we struggle with the most.
Humans do not seem to be made to be perfect beings. Humans are made up of good and bad qualities. The trick to being the best human you can be is to keep those things in balance producing a being that is worthy of the spirit it hosts.
Alan explained to me that as humans with spirits we are beings who have been given free will. We have been given the ability to choose what we do and how we do it. We have been given the free will to love or hate, to work hard or slack off, be jealous and petty or kind and thankful. We are given the freedom to make these choices each and every day. These choices are also what develops our souls and make us the people we become. If you are a human in balance you are then a soul doing the best with the experience of life.
This is a part of Alan’s thinking I feel we all need to concentrate on. Do we all use the gift of life in the form of being a human being to become the best we can or do we tend to give in to temptation, private wants and sink to a less admirable creature as we reach for these things?. From what I see of the world around us I think many are sliding along the experience of life rather than working forward to become a better man or woman.
I asked Alan if he could describe to me exactly what he meant by an angel. This is what Alan told me:
“Angels are celestial light created by the source energy some have come to call God, the universe or a higher power.
They exist in and around all of us boundless by limitations of time or space. They are eternal in their everlasting missions of running the universe, safe guarding each and every life form throughout- working with fate to bring truth and light via savoring and encouraging hope.
I do believe that all ( including other life forms in our universe) are protected and guided by the various angels within the ranks of their chosen choirs.
Angels work with us often unseen or unheard. Very few of us have the ability to tune in to the high frequency of our angels to acknowledge their presence unless they choose to be have this happen.. However anyone of us can call upon the service or safety of an angel at any time.
There are many methods but the best is often a clear mind with some emotional content and an unwavering faith. Angels will always answer to what is needed not always what is desired. Rest assured they are forever watching over us waiting to be called upon in our hours of need.
Angels are neither male or female, they are genderless creatures with no physical true form. It is however our chosen perceptions that allow us to choose what is most comfortable for us, they mirror what we choose to see often at a subconscious level. Through my experiences angels remain shapeless energy constant and consistent throughout.
Angels cannot choose the fate of mankind as we were given free will. They intervene when asked or in order to assist. Ultimately it is our choice to make or break the paradise we once had on this planet. We as a race must pull together with the light of angels guiding us to salvation and unity, rather than spread apart through greed or power. Angels can all but stimulate us to motivate ourselves in our chosen paths of life.
Angels will not leave those who reject them, they may however stand aside and allow those few to empower themselves and help unnoticed where it is needed. An angel needs no recognition in order to act, they are selfless and loving beings that exist as a lasting light of truth and hope that one day man may find his way home even in the darkest hours.
Each of us have our own guardians that stand with us throughout our lives, but there are more and more angels out there watching over all worlds, all life and all above and beyond that which we know. “
I asked Alan if he could suggest the best method of communicating with our angels. This is what he told me:
“ I have found speaking aloud in a place of solitude is best when trying to communicate in somewhat a prayer like plea or call.
One can also speak within their mind because it is more about the emotional content intended when searching for guidance or communication with angels. To feel deeply and be strong in faith will guarantee you will be receptive to answers given back.. Daily meditations and a sharp mind will increase an awareness of the angels around you. They may give answers through omens rather than directly..such as a billboard advertisement with a slogan appears in your day randomly, confirming your request.
It may be another person or stranger appear with comfort you asked for. Answers are always given but very few see or hear them through lack of understanding. Direct answers may be rare but not unheard of. It is more a question of how to become receptive rather than how to ask aloud. Angels are forever listening close awaiting us to reach out for help or guidance. We must allow ourselves to open our eyes to see signs or omens of conformation “
Alan also reminded me that we all need to be thankful to our Angels, or guides for all the blessings and gifts like health, talents and strength. We need to understand that they are there to help us help ourselves, not provide immediate solutions to our problems. Ask your Angels to show you the way out of turmoil. Ask your Angels to give you the strength to reach your goals, but be willing to do the hard work along the way.
With all the madness in the world and the heaviness of hate building around us, It would be nice if we all had a good chat with our Angels. Who knows maybe the entire subject of 2012 has to do with our spirits being called back to balance. I sure want to be in close communication with my own Angelic guides.
I spend time working with many unknowns trying to deliver warnings and messages by way of my articles to better or protect my fellow humans. Often when attacked for trying to bring truth to the subjects that have been tainted by less than truthful people I wonder if I am doing the right thing. It is then I ask for the guidance of those who may guide me . I admit each time I do this I do receive a reply in some way that urges me to continue to completion my own missions in life . In my opinion when in doubt- go with the light and hope of your Angel guides. They will always show you the way.
Blessings from my house to yours during this Special Season.
