Jumping off the Cliff...
The same year that I had the inSpirational thought about the peace pillows,(2005) I took part in a workshop in Boulder Colorado. Jewish and Arab women were invited into the beauty of the Rocky Mountains, to The Star House, where we did indepth peace work. One afternoon, as the sun was setting over the magestic mountains, we sat in circle on the back veranda, sipping herbal tea, sharing our hopes and dreams. I shared the inSpiration that I had had at the peace camp that summer, releasing it into the circle.
At the time, I was in the throws of my divorce, having no idea how I would manage financially or otherwise. At the closing ceremony, we each stepped over a sword, symbolising the thresh hold as we each shared what it meant for us...I found myself saying..."I'm standing at the edge of the cliff, about to jump, and I know I will have a soft landing..."
LEAP OF FAITH
It is time to let go
Now I know
without doubt
I am about
To create peace
by leaving the piece
of land that I love
Just like the Settlers
I need to make the move
in order to prove
that the center for peace
is in my being
and my belly
I’ve been in a fight
Holding on tight
Not wanting to give up
Believing it is my right
to bring light
By owning the land
the house and the sanctuary
I’ve opened my arms
I’ve opened my heart
I’ve cared
I’ve shared
I’ve cooked
I’ve cleaned
I’ve nurtured
Now is the test
If I can be my best
No fancy home
to call my own
Just me
My body
the four walls
My belly
the home
My soul
the center for peace
Now is the time
To let go of ‘mine’
and turn to Thine
for support
As I take the leap
The leap of faith
Having no idea
Nothing is clear
I stand on the ledge
The very edge
I’m about to leap
Knowing deep
Within my soul
That I’ll be whole
And held when I fall
Standing tall
My feet rooted
In The Mother
Knowing I’ll be
nurtured
supported and guided
I let go and leap!

At a Life Alignment module 6 workshop last week, again I had a vision of myself on the top of the mountain, a place I visited in April while in South Africa at the International conferance. This beautiful mountain has this opening right at the top...like a cave but not a cave, more like a birthing canal. I heard the words..."jump"...and in my imagination, I did. This time, I just flew...swirling in the air, feeling completly supported by the Universe, knowing without doubt that at long last I am free, free to truly be me. I have healed my childhood trauma, overcome the death of my baby, am happy and fulfilled. So grateful for this journey I am on, knowing that all that happened in the past, brought me to this point, where I can offer the children of the world, what I wish I had known as a child. Excited that my dream has come true...join me and help your children know how magnificent they are and that dreams manifest - "THINK GOOD THOUGHTS THAT CREATE GOOD THINGS"...welcome to Dreaming Peace.
