Have I told you my motto for the year? “Life is an experiment.”  What a freeing thought.  How can you fail when it’s all just an experiment anyway??  (Thanks to Christine Kane for this attitude shift.  She totally rocks. Check her out. See my sidebar.)

Ok, so life is an experiment.  You just GOTTA try new things with that attitude, right? I have spent the past mumble-mumble number of years always worrying about the what ifs in life.  If I do this, what will THEY think? If I do that, what if THIS happens? Such a LIMITING thought pattern, as I will strongly attest.  I am trying new things almost on a daily basis now and so far, the world has not come to an end! Amazing!

Today I chose to attend a Reiki class and received my first level certification or something like that.  I have had Reiki done “to me” and loved it.  I definitely see the value and reality of it.  What I’m not so sure about it if someone ordinary Joe like me is truly able to become one who performs Reiki.  I had an attunement, which supposedly empowers me with the energy connection that allows me to perform Reiki.  I learned about chakras, auras, and more.  Fascinating stuff, truly.  A lot I totally am into and want to learn more about. Now whether or not I will truly possess the ability to channel this healing energy as a healer? That I’m not so sure of.

I do believe a lot of it comes with practice. I know I have to learn to be more open to receiving the messages sent to me by angels and others outside our earthly world.  I do believe in angels and spiritual guides.  I do believe in signs.  Lord knows I have had lots of those messages delivered to me over the past couple of years. I just don’t know if I believe that someone like me is one who should be the messenger.

Time will tell.  No matter. It’s all good.
