Celebrating FREEDOM

Celebrating FREEDOM

Tomorrow our country is celebrating 250 YEARS of calling ourselves The United States! For most of us we think wow, that’s a long time. But, as one newscaster reminded us recently, we are relatively a very young country. I wonder sometimes if that is why our country seems just as divided as we were in years past. What a complicated history our country does  have. I am hoping that someday we can have a huge celebration of the diversity that exists in all of our states. If people only understood how very precious that is. But, I always will cherish our ability to celebrate the FREEDOMS we enjoy in this country.

I am in complete gratitude that we are living in a free country to keep our youth nurtured and cherished.  I think we tend to forget just how long many countries have been in existence. They likely do not HAVE the huge diversity that exists here all around us. Accepting change simply has to BE. Change changed our country for equality many times. I do believe that ever better change IS on the way. So many of our spiritual masters who are mediums connecting with the spirits in the world beyond tell us to be patient and WATCH the change arrive!

As young as our country is, the heritage we hold with the Indigenous people needs to be cherished and celebrated! Have you ever wondered if you had a previous lifetime that might have been here in these territories prior to our country’s existence? I have. There is a piece of me that thinks perhaps I lived a Native American earlier life.   I know this is an odd thought as we celebrate our country. But, I don’t dwell on that…it is simply a reflection as we celebrate the freedom’s we enjoy today.

I know that other countries have similar indigenous groups of people. Peru has always been a source of my learning and understanding of LIFE as I grew in understanding of my NDE. They too have an indigenous population in the Quechua tribes that still infiltrate their Peruvian culture. I have shared this Quechua prayer before, but I hope you enjoy it one more time. To me…it gives us strength in whatever culture we identify with as we celebrate the FREEDOM to BE in our country with our own beliefs. CELEBRATE! Enjoy your holiday with family and friends! I end with the Infinity Symbol as a representation of YOU in our country and the EVERLASTING LOVE we enjoy as humans living this lifetime! Happy 4th of July, 2026!!

 

 

Great Creator, Grant me the light of wisdom.

Mother Earth, bountiful source, help me draw strength from the ground beneath my feet.

Father Sun, radiant child, fill me with the warmth and energy to face my trials.

Mountain Spirits, who walk the wind, guide me on the path of resilience and determination.

May the sacred waters cleanse my soul, and may the fires of transformation forge my spirit.

In unity with all living beings, I embrace the power within me, to overcome obstacles and grow ever stronger.
