I used to go around thinking that I was broke and needed to be fixed. Kind of like the cars I always drove. It wasn’t until a couple of years ago that I owned my first brand new car. What an experience! For the first time in my life I didn’t feel like I was driving something around that even though it looked well put together was a ticking time bomb of things that would go wrong. Not exactly a perspective to live by. Now, I am not saying that I am a car but when I think about how for so many years I saw myself as broken. I think deep down I figured that it was only a matter of time before you saw my faults and knew that I needed fixing. Then would come decision time–would you put up with it or just get another one. Now, when I say this I turn it on other people but it was really my attitude towards myself. By connecting with God I have come to see that I am not broken, I am actually a whole human being–body, mind, and spirit. Yes, there is maintenance that is involved (just as there is with a new car) but I am not a ticking time bomb. I am whole and complete even in my imperfections because I come from a place of wholeness. I am only disconnected from the greater whole when I think I am on my own, when I focus on what is wrong with me and with you. It is hard to explain the moment when I began to resonate with my wholeness and being a part of, and I can often forget, but it has created a connection with God that is much stronger than I could have imagined. As I have often heard I am in this world but not of this world. And in God’s world the only thing that exists is wholeness. Wholeness of purpose. My prayer for you today is that through the smallest experience you might grasp how you are whole and part of the greater whole (God). I know for me that when I see through those eyes I am no longer disconnected from myself or from others. Here is to our connection. (tipping my hat to you). Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen

Colleen, I am truly enjoying your blog, but especially connected with this message of wholeness. I am whole with my God regardless of what my day brings. My range of emotions and responses is part of my wholeness, and it’s good for me to hold that awareness close to my heart! Thanks for being another spiritual channel in my life!
