A Month of Gratitude - Veterans Week

Hello Everyone!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and that your week is starting out productively.  If you haven't read my last post, please click here as I had discussed some personal life revelations, and announced some big changes to this blog.  As promised,  for this month, I'll be sharing with you, the many ways we can live a grateful life in preparations for the Thanksgiving holiday.

This week, we will focus on our beloved Veterans.  Even though the holiday was officially November 11th, there are some institutions and businesses that are closed today, Monday, November 12th,  honoring Veterans Day.  This is a  holiday that should be recognized more than just one day, since we have so many of our men and women still fighting courageously every day enabling us to safely live life's precious moments.  So after reading this post, try and incorporate throughout the week, the messages that our Angels want to relay regarding Veterans and service.

When we think of Veterans, we associate with, loved-ones, strangers,  sacrifices, strength, free-will, pride, true-colors, discipline, freedom, choices, patriotism, worry, sadness, anger, pain and the list goes on and on.  Our Veterans have and will always teach us so much about life even though we will never truly understand the memories they had to live through, that are engraved in their minds.  We do owe it to them to pause, reflect, respect and be grateful for all they have done and continue to do for us all.  So on Veterans day and every day, take the time to thank those you know and don't know who are Veterans, donate to organizations that help bring comfort, sanity and warmth back into their lives, raise your flags high, talk to your Veterans and learn their stories, and no matter what, still pray for peace.

My father-n-law, my uncles and  very good friends of mine are celebrated on this day. Thankfully they are all still alive.  There are those though who have left this earth and guard us differently now in heaven.  Our Guardian Angels have a message for all Veterans, those who have once served and now serve in heaven, along with how we can find closure from honoring a day that comes with such mixed feelings of honor and loss.

Our Guardian Angels want us to focus on "Gratitude" itself for healing.  I know this may seem repetitive, but in actuality it isn't.  We sometimes focus so much on the loss that we forget all that we still do have in this world.  Whether our Veterans are still alive or not, we are left sometimes with unanswered questions and a world upside down. But our angels want us to never give up on seeing past the darkness and stepping into a light that will bathe us in the abundance of all the good that still thrives regardless!

Take time this week to further heal from what Veterans Day means to you and see that there is still so much more to be thankful for and that there's still good left to achieve and to break through in this world---even if it may seem like sometimes--all is not done for nothing.  Ask your Guardian Angels to walk with you during this process and to lead you toward better feeling thoughts on gratitude.

I wish you all a grateful week!

Guidance, Inspiration & Comfort always,
