This Week's Theme: Slow Down and Step Forward Fearlessly

Please forgive me for the delay - it's all in divine timing, right? As I went on my morning run today, I saw quite a few of my snail friends as I looked down on my path (which I generally don't do because I'm so focused on the run, as well as releasing and renewing my energy) - right then, I had an "a-ha moment" because one of the questions I had during my run was "what is today's, this week's theme?" My confirmation were the 5 + snails I saw cross my path. I was careful not to step on any of my little friends. I also slowed down to a jog to pace myself and as in the moral of "The Tortoise and The Hare" - I still maintained my run time.

Also - if you any of you are in the Livermore area this weekend, specifically Sunday, April 12, please try to come through and cheer on my team "Key's Peeps" at The Dionysus Dash at Concannon Vineyards, 4590 Tesla Rd., Livermore, California 94550. If any of you are already planning on attending or participating in this event, please say "HI!" With that said - let's delve into this week's Angel Messages, shall we?!

Message from the angels:  "Dear one, take time to smell the roses - do not forget to maintain balance and be aware of those around you. While helping yourself, don't forget to also lend a hand to your brothers and sisters. If you wish to help someone, perhaps all they need is 5 minutes of your time - to you, it might not mean much, but it could mean the world to the person who needs your help. Slow down, you are doing great, stay consistent. That steady pace might feel stagnant when in fact it is making BIG WAVES of changes in your life - WE KNOW, we see a bright future for you - HAVE FAITH and we will help you maintain that faith, you need only ask. We love you."

Archangel Michael's message:  "Indeed slow down so you can experience life and be grateful for such experience AND go forward fearlessly - I have your best interest at heart confirming that all is as it is supposed to be. Please quit worrying and leave your cares and worries to US [Archangels, Ascended Masters, Angels and/or GOD]. ALWAYS bear in mind that your worries are your walls that block continuous blessings. However, when you learn to release such cares and worries to US, then a permeable light shield builds up all around you to protect you and allow only love to enter. With this in mind, have faith."

WOW! What a powerful AND beautiful message for this week. From my experience, eliminating worrying and fretting is not easy but well worth it and I can go to sleep good at night. I have no secret to it. I just choose to give my cares and worries to God whether I voice it to The Universe or I release it on paper - the point is I channel that energy constructively and creatively (hence these blogs ;-))  

Till next time, I bid you all love, light and compassion.
