An Impossible Situation
Concerning the recent situation in Eldorado, Texas and the FLDS. I am sending Reiki to this situation because I really don't know how to even formulate a prayer. I am so internally conflicted.
On the one hand, I believe in the protection of these people's faith. I believe the children and their parents should be reunited.
On the other hand, I am concerned that very young girls are being forced into arranged marriages and possibly raped to consumate those marriages.
My heart breaks for each family torn apart by the raid on their community.

It's My Birthday!
Today I am doublely blessed because it isn't just my birthday, but it is also my daughter's birthday. Seventeen years ago, she was the best birthday present I ever received:)
And even though my husband is out of town on business, I can feel his love from miles away and see the evidence when I look into the backyard at my raised garden beds he built for me before this last trip...and he promised to build another as soon as he returns.
People ask me how I use my reiki in the every day...and really, today is a perfect example...
I woke up this morning, knowing I would spend most of my day alone, and in the past, that would have made me sad, but this morning, I thought of all of the people who were celebrating their births today, and knew that some of them really do have no one to spend their special day with. So, I spent some time, sending them some reiki and hoping they could feel my love from miles away...
This morning I drew the protection symbol on my car, as I do every morning, hoping the tires hold out another day, and asking for safe passage anywhere my vehicle takes me today...
After the trip to school but before my hot tea, I charged five incense with Reiki, and remembered those I've loved and lost, and prayed for the safety and health of those who I love and live still...the scent will fill the air all day...and I will smile as loved faces come to mind...
A candle burns for my husband, filled with Reiki and the prayer for his safe return.
A candle burns for my daughter, who, turning seventeen, is just beginning on this great adventure of her life, and that candle is filled with Reiki to light her way along the path and the wish that she will always know peace and love, even during the times when she finds herself alone.
As I watered my garden, I also showered it with Reiki, hoping the healing energy will infuse the earth and the plants to produce an abundant crop.
Wow, it's only 11:22am here...that's a lot of Reiki...and that's also a fairly typical day. Are you using your Reiki?
