For my many dear friends - Cancer's survivors

As I am a survivor myself, I just wanted to share with you some of my thoughts and I have dedicated this article to my friends who are survivors and to the others who are still fighting to survive. I am not a cancer survivor, but a scleroderma survivor; I am one in a million who has survived from this terrible illness.Scleroderma is an autoimmune disease of the connective tissue. Autoimmune diseases are illnesses which occur when the body's tissues are attacked by its own immune system. Scleroderma is characterized by the formation of scar tissue (fibrosis) in the skin and organs of the body. This leads to thickness and firmness of involved areas.

I was very young and fought this disease for 7 long years; years of terrible pain and suffering, years of fear which alos made me write this article in the hope that I may be of help for others who are going through similar situations.

Now, I am dealing with another chronic illness  and out of love for my fellow travellers on the path, here I am with some of my own insight.

At the root of our universal human existence is survival.

We all want to survive, and to know the secrets.  Who will flee or who will fight?  I think we all pick our poison as to what situation we will try to survive just to see and prove we can.  Those who do survive feel empowered, getting the necessary energy and confidence to tackle the next challenge.  This is something we have been doing since our earliest years as infants.  However, when we became adults, we made the stakes higher. 

Our thoughts create an energy that affects our well being down the level of cell health, to our aura, and to the energy we emit into this world. We were given the gift of free choice; not that we can change the path as I have mentioned many times in my articles!  We can either use our choices to empower us, limit our lives, and challenge ourselves to dream beyond our wildest imaginations.  We decide our focus.

Karma: Be aware of intentions. Thank heavens for forgiveness.  Humans do make mistakes. Forgive yourself and others as often as necessary. 

Love does conquer all, and "evil" will give a good fight before being overcome.

We are Love at our very essence.  We ultimately came to earth to love, and be a light force.  This is our true self-image.

We are ONE, coming from the same creator.  What we think and do towards another, we also do to ourselves  

Self-Love is at the heart of one's power. We have to love ourselves with all of our hearts first and know that the creator gave us life because our lives do matter. This is true confidence. 

Imagine you already knew you were a survivor.  Imagine you didn't have to create circumstances to prove anything to yourself or the universe.  Imagine you are already a survivor.  At this level, at this frequency, you realize you do have everything you need.  You take a deep exhale, knowing you have made it and you are OK and safe. You tell yourself, I am fine.  I am OK.  You feel your heart rate slowing down. You feel the tension in your face melting away. Your jaw is relaxing, slightly opening tight lips.  You feel your breath, and take an even deeper breath of air.  Deep inside, you feel good because your pH (acid/alkaline) level is coming into balance and harmony, positively affecting cellular wellness and hormones. You see all of the good things around you, and some resources that were under your nose.  You begin to attract what you do need to thrive. 

What if you knew, that no matter what, you will survive.  You might be like the Olympic Athletes who crash and burn in round one, only to recover and win the Gold.  Because of our drive to survive and evolve, we will have obstacles at any level.  The difference between those you make it, and those who don't--are those who had the courage, confidence and heart to meet the challenge. They played the game, seeing themselves winning.  They declared victory, not defeat.  Most importantly, it is those who can laugh in the face of their fear, and transform fear's strength into something positive.  

How can a bull rider relax and go with the bull while at the same time taking it by the horns?  How can a navy pilot land his plane in the night on a moving airstrip that is bouncing up and down with the ocean's waves?  How can anyone do some of the super human feats? I believe it is by the grace of God, and how they are able to transform their fear to do the impossible and incredible.   

I think it is very important get in touch with how you see yourself.  Even if you can't image how, it is important to see yourself how you want to be.  You have the ability and freedom to choose.  This is the only thing you really can control.  When you hurt, see yourself pain free.  When you are sick, see yourself well and tell yourself that this too shall pass.  When you can't image yourself, see a beautiful white light.  Practice seeing how you would like things to be vs. how they may actually be as much as possible. These meditations are like mental sit-ups, making your core strong to manage the next challenge, or to have fun playing a good game. You are the only one who can do this, and there is no time like the present.  You must heal yourself and be successful doing it so that you can help your soul carryout its mission for this lifetime.  The world depends on you. 

One thing, however, I have realized is just how fear manifests into our lives.  Some can handle fear better than others.  Some can handle more fear than others.  Ultimately--this is one of the true causes of ill health. The trick is to recognize when you are living in fear and its associated illusions in order to get out and say "NO".  Love is the only truth. 

Why does anything happen?  Why do good things happen to bad people?  Why do bad things happen to good people?  I think things happen because each human was blessed with the gift of free will.  We are free to think the thoughts we have.  I think things happen, not to punish--but to increase our self-awareness and self-responsibility to open our hearts.  But those are only my thoughts.

These past few weeks, I have talked with many frightened people. I heard myself say to them: Say no to the fear, to the illusion.  Take the time to create a life-sustaining intention that brings you love, peace, joy, health, prosperity and anything else that is of Love.  When you find yourself in darkness, cling to the truth about your true self and being.  Nourish your intention, heart's desire, and ask God to bless it and keep it in the light.

"What you are, the world is.  The world is transforming, and maybe all of life's little and big experiences are to help us transform so that we can transform the world.  However, it is critical that we do transform and become the Light and Love we truly are--and be part of the change at any level.

Love and light

I love each one of you
