A Message from a "Higher Perspective"

This evening, I decided to grab the most recent book I am reading, a large glass of iced tea and head down the hill to the beach. It was an absolutely majestic evening, the sun was perfectly setting in the sky with white billowing clouds capping the mountain top. The soft breeze created a ripple on the lake that was ever so faint as a few late swimmers splashed around in the coolness. I had never climbed the lifeguard chair before but for some reason, Spirit was nudging me to climb. So, of course, I did.

As I was sitting on what felt like the "top of the world", I could not help but be overwhelmed with deep gratitude for Mother Earth and all the gifts she brings to us each & every day. The view was beautiful & with just a little bit of added height from the chair, everything looked different. As I was enjoying the quiet time while giving thanks, I heard a truck as it was coming down the road. I heard it but didn't bother to glance. Suddenly, cutting through my peaceful moment were words filled with anger & hate. These words were directed at me by complete strangers, driving by. They screamed "Hey, F - U Fat Lady".........

I wanted to crumble. I think a part of me did for a moment. I was embarrassed, I felt foolish for being up in the lifeguard chair but most of all, I hurt. My heart hurt! Why would someone, anyone say that to me or any stranger for that matter? I was mindng my business, not paying attention to any one thing or any one person. I was just "being". It felt as if they robbed me of my power, of my joy. But it was deeper than that. Why did their words cut me? What did it trigger, what button did it push to bring me to such a state of sadness? So, I asked. I called upon Spirit, my Angels & Guides along with all the Ascended Masters for their love, their protection, their support & their guidance.

Immediately, I felt safe again. I felt loved and I knew that no matter what those people said about me, that it was not true. It was about them, not me. As I am climbing higher on my Spiritual journey, I never would think that I am above anyone. But I do "see" much more with a clear, open view. I see beauty in everything & love in everyone. How am I going to see love in people who attempted to slay my joy? I asked and I received....

"Child, you are perfect & whole and with those qualities comes love. When you love, you feel vulnerable, you feel exposed. It's ok, keep climbing. The view will change, the vibration will change but your wholeness will not. Love, love those that are still seeing from the lower perspective. It is their journey too. They must climb at their own pace, on their own path. You are not responsible for what others say. However you are responsible for the power you give them. Remember that anger begets anger & love begets more love. Continue to climb, continue to be still & continue to love...."

As I was getting ready to leave, I thanked the Divine Father & Mother along with the Angels & Guides that are always with me. And another gift was granted. Suddenly three ducks wandered right up to the chair.....These ducks were sent to me from Spirit. Three - representing Mind, Body, Spirit. Hope, Healing, Happiness. The ultimate message of trilogy from atop the lifeguard chair, a view from a higher perspective.....

Feeling blessed, truly blessed!
