UNEXPECTED OUTCOMES - Reach Up
Wow! What a wild ride! The landscape is changing before our eyes in unexpected ways as the shock waves begin to subside. Fortunately, there has been some wonderful sharing of wisdom and perspective, along with constructive ways to channel the energy. A blog by Beatris Karaoglanyan called “Trump Teaches a Spiritual Lesson” rang true for me and speaks of the Laws of the Universe.
I'm with her. And I'm with you too, whoever you are, whomever you chose to love, however you look, whatever you do.
I know that when I push AGAINST something, I am only adding my energy to the very thing I am against. According to Abraham-Hicks, that is like saying "Please come to me this thing I do not want."
"You cannot shout NO at something without also including it in your own vibration.” - Abraham-Hicks
Another unexpected outcome is the immediate outcry on the streets, and the swift response with grassroots groups sprouting up everywhere made up of like-minded, like-hearted, newly awakened activists.
I remind myself that there is SO much ahead and we don't know all the twists and turns in the plot. But I do know that we live in a benevolent universe, and that love trumps hate.
So beginning today, I am turning my attention AWAY from the fear and toward my own personal power. It's in this moment, and it's all I have. It energizes me to work for what I believe in, not against what I don't want.
I know that everyone is hurting right now, both sides. And the truth is, we're all in this together. So I'm going to Reach Up for inspiration and Reach Out with love...
If ever there were a place, it’s here
If ever there were a time, it’s now...

REACH UP
Music & lyrics by Sandi Kimmel
If ever there were a place, it’s here
If ever there were a time, it’s now
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!
Reach for the joy in every moment
And it’s joy that circles round
You’re the sender and receiver
Signals sent without a sound
Reach for the love in every moment
And it’s love that bounces back
All the smiles that you’re seeing
Let you know that you’re on track.
You can tell by the way you feel
Which way you’re going
If you’re feeling good it means
Your life is flowing
Use your emotions as your guide
And let the Universe provide
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!
Reach for it all in every moment
For it all is in the now
Let go of expectation
Because the Universe knows how
You can tell by the way you feel
Which way you’re going
If you’re feeling good it means
Your life is flowing
Use your emotions as your guide
And let the Universe provide
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!
If ever there were a place, it’s here
If ever there were a time, it’s now
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!
Reach up, reach out! Reach up, reach out!

About My Blog:
Soul Feathers - wisps of wisdom and tickles of truth, observations and offerings from my heart and music for the soul. We each have a part to play in this great movie, and mine is gently but consistently toss pebbles into the lake of humanity, and watch the ripples make waves.
Soul Feathers is also the name of the album I recorded with producer Thomas Barquee. He artfully elevated the music to a high vibration of love and healing, truly music for these times. Music has the power to move and motivate, soothe and uplift, and these songs and chants support the journey as the music reflects my own journey.
By sharing my perspective, practical spirituality and positive music, it is my intention to release soul-nourishing pebbles in the sea of our emerging consciousness. By sharing this work with other like-minded and like-hearted friends, you become part of the wave.
