Sometimes, Simple is the Hardest Thing to do.

I know you've all heard it. "It's always the simple answers which are the best." What's it really mean?

The simple answers aren't always going to be there, going to be clear. Sometimes, they are the hardest ones to find, because you look too far past what life is really about.

Lately, I've been making my life complicated. I was pushing people away. I was keeping them out. All because I couldn't figure out how to "go with the flow."

Looking back on it now, "go with the flow" translates to "keep praying and come just as you are for God."

To those people I pushed out lately, I'm sorry. I'm learning to never let go of my faith and who I am, but I'm also learning to never let go of people who matter most to me.

With Raphael's guidance, and God's love, I feel I'm ready to open my heart again. So if you'll accept me, I'd like to ask for your forgiveness.

What Makes My Life So Meaningful...

...is the way every single day is given meaning by the smallest things that happen.

Even if it's just being able to spend time with God, something so simple can be so powerful for me.

A few days ago, I wrote down a poem - a poem inspired by Raphael, my guardian angel. It's a beautiful poem, because of what it means to me. It reflects what I have been able to see around me as I try to live in relation with God each day: six beautiful rainbow wings, borne of my guardian angel. So here it is.

Lord God, today my prayer is that everyone who seeks finds refuge in you, that they find their divine guidance, that they know you'll always protect them.

Amen
