empowered




Recording and singing the hymns has empowered me.
It's set me free and made me feel it's easy to share my music. I actually want to.
It feels like it takes me out of the equation somehow. I'm just the voice.
I can sing them with my whole heart and mean every word I say but it is not about me.
It's not about me.
That must be why it feels freeing.
That must be why when I post it on Facebook I don't cringe.
That must be why I'll just tell people they should down load it because it's a great song.

As a mother I love to nourish and nurture my children. It was easy and wonderful when they were nursing babies. Oh, to hear and see my baby gulping down my milk!  I knew I was creating and feeding them food that was nourishing. 
I still love seeing them eat healthy food. It's not as easy these days though! 
Sometimes I have to be creative.
I told Gwenyth that if she ate salmon it would make her a better swimmer.
At the time she had a big crush on her swim teacher Brandon.
She went from a typical 4 year old who didn't like fish to a child who could eat as much salmon as me.
I think it is just a part of me to want to feed, teach, nourish, love and advise those in my circle of influence….even when I know I do it imperfectly.

Recording and singing the hymns makes me feel as if I've made a very nutritious meal. 
A meal that will energize and even heal. It makes me feel like I get to serve it up and spoon feed it. 
It thrills my mother heart.
I know all of our eternal spirits recognize truth. Not always on a conscious level but I know our spirits always recognize the truth. 
When I sing the hymns I know I'm speaking truth. Not just my truth or the truth as I see it through my certain perspective of experience and bias,
 but the actual truth.
I love the truth.
 I want to seek the truth, I want to speak the truth, I want to BE the truth.

THE END
