For whatever reason, the death of Prince has broken my heart open wider this morning than at any time since learning of his sudden passing…
I had watched the sheriff’s news announcement from yesterday. I was in the midst of reading an article that spoke of fans finding seemingly prophetic references to his April death in some of his song lyrics… My heart was heavy… The tears arrived like no time since his sudden passing.
The tears came in earnest….
and then….
honestly
at that exact moment…..
a dove struck the window of my home right in front of me and flew off……..
Yes, I’m still right here….
filled with an other-worldly sense of awe.
This spontaneously began singing in me yesterday out of nowhere, right after I’d had my own challenging feelings of major worry arise… It is not a song I ever think of, so I immediately felt the calm of my own higher wisdom and precious unseen comforting.. ❤ It was very much like angelic music straight to my heart in that moment. May it comfort you too. D*

This song played through me and called out to be shared on this day…. I was moved, heart and soul, to see how many people were touched by reconnecting with this musical ‘Sweet Surrender’ call by John Denver… I offered it on our Conscious Connections NOW community page. It will remain a favorite song and a precious potent experience.
I awoke this morning with this song playing over…. and over… and over… again inside me… “I’ll Stand By You.”
I began to hear it as the Beloved singing to me, for me.
LISTEN. Imagine the Divine conveying every word and each feeling just for You. ❤
That, that is how unconditionally we are truly loved. Wow…. I will be walking through the world today feeling that Truth more deeply. Love to you all, D*
Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don’t be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
’cause I’ve seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don’t know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less
I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
So if you’re mad, get mad
Don’t hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I’m a lot like you
When you’re standing at the crossroads
And don’t know which path to choose
Let me come along
’cause even if you’re wrong
I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you
And when…
When the night falls on you, baby
You’re feeling all alone
You won’t be on your own
I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Confirmations come in all kinds of ways, including on a tea bag. Time to listen.
For over a week, I’ve been making my way through a cold, something that I rarely experience. I’m nearly all well, but the now ‘slightly’ sore throat has remained tenacious. It’s day eleven now. Hmmm.. In the past few days, I had come to the personal epiphany that this sore throat was present to remind me to quiet myself, to gently allow my loquacious exuberant essence to rest and to do some deep listening ~ both to those around me and to my own inner voice.
I’ve been practicing. Completely eliminating talking is virtually impossible for me, just ask my hubby. However, this week+ has been a time of more awareness and assimilation. I recognize the calm that comes with not needing to speak as much. The energy used for that can be used for harmonizing within, for observing and for being quietly curious. It allows more space for inner wisdom to speak and inspiration to get my attention. Those I love can feel a fuller presence and focus from me. I recognize the gift that is to them too. Making a little promise to myself tonight to remember the gifts inherent in this week’s experience.
There is a resonance in the balance of speaking and listening, knowing that all that needs to be said will be spoken or felt. There is so much to hear, within and around me. It feels good to LISTEN more deeply in all these ways.
Well tonight it appears my tea bag agrees….. The message on my Yogi brand tea bag was “The greatest tool you have is to listen.” LOL!!!! Indeed. O.K. I’m listening.
