Crossroads

As we expand our consciousness throughout our lives, we come to crossroads. It is at these points that we either choose a different path or we turn around and retreat. I have had my moments of considering retreat. Do I return to the line of work which is comfortable or continue upon this spiritual path? After meditation and consideration, I continue to choose a new path to walk on.

Whether we are choosing: our profession, habits, the food we eat, the people we share our lives with, we return that the ultimate space of knowing. For when we stop wondering and thinking, we become quiet. To "become still and listen." When we begin to listen and stop talking, God provides the answers we seek. Let us listen this day. Let us be open to the movement of spirit. When we do, the flow of life is alive and strong within us and a new path shall be opened.

May the path you are walking bring you new awareness. May this awareness open your vision to greater possibilities and may the greater possibilities be embraced in each moment.

Peace,

Rev. Rosanne

A Way of Being - Illumine...From Within

The past couple of months I have been enjoying a fresh way of being. Once I began to take action on the movement I felt deep within me, my life transformed. It is not funny how many times we have the answers we seek, yet continue to ignore or procrastinate? I knew as the feeling became stronger that I must move now! The hesitation to wait became insignificant to the urge to move forward. After twenty years of a vision for my personal life, within two months, the results are speaking for themselves.

So now that I have personally shown how our inner wisdom is so faithfully on track for each individual life, you will begin to see transformations within Everyday Life Paths. Our focus will turn from listening to others experience, to listening to ourselves. We will provide opportunities to stop asking and begin listening to our inner guidance. We will stop walking around the edges of our beliefs and dive right to the center of metaphysics as we...


ILLUMINE...FROM WITHIN.

Our transformation is complete within God's mind. Over the next year, our website will begin to take on a new shape. Please excuse our construction as we develop our next generation of Everyday Life Paths. Please join us to keep updated with our progress. I look forward to our paths crossing within divine light.

Peace,


Rev. Dr. Rosanne Giurado

We Are

There are different ideas around how we co-create our lives. I found an idea first spoken by Aristotle which is in bold below.

We are not only

what we think.

We are not only

what we eat.

We are not only

what we believe...

"We are a combination joined together by what we repeatedly do." Aristotle

Reading this quote we realize that no matter what we believe, think, or eat... we shape our experience by what we do.

Enjoy what you do this day!

Stop and Breathe

Let us take the time today to stop and breathe. We allow all thoughts to relax and fade into the background. May we shine the light of love on those we meet this day. We may never know the difference we will make in someone's life when we allow love, not hate, to lead the way. As we look for what makes us similar, not what makes us different, humanity can begin to turn towards a new way of being.

May we lift those who need help this day. May our love be a light which shines through any darkness and may we realize our God connection deep within our souls.

Happy New Year - A New Adventure

Mindfulness, Playfulness, Connectedness, Livewellfulness and Gratefulness

For the past couple of month I have been aware of a movement within me, a small voice becoming stronger by the day. While I felt my family and I were doing a good job of taking care of ourselves, the movement was pushing me to do more. I tried to ignore it, however, I knew that once you feel or hear something from within, the choice is to follow. Of course once I opened myself up to God's movement within me, the answers appeared miraculously.

Here I AM at last. The holiday season and our adventure has been filling my time joyously! So in the least possible words (for a minister that is) here is a journey. Each section has a story with suggestions for books. May you take what you desire and what feels right to you.

Mindfulness, Playfulness, Connectedness, Livewellfulness and Gratefulness
(ok, so I made up the fourth word.)

Mindfulness
My husband and I talked and found that we wanted to become more mindful. We wanted to listen to that inner voice which lets us know the answers that we seek. What we found was that being mindful was not just about the "big" questions in life, if was about integrating mindfulness in all areas of our life. What is so funny that after making this decision, we read Everyday Life Path's book club selection, "One Minute for Myself" which asked, "What can I do right now to take better care of me?" Have you ever really asked yourself that question? If you have, did you take action on what you heard? Sometimes it is as simple as getting something to eat, or stopping to rest and relax if only for a few minutes. Being mindful, we listen inwardly to what we can do for ourselves and in return I feel better. Feeling better, I can contribute more to life and those around me.

There are so many books on mindfulness. Find one which works for your spirituality and enjoy each moment you take as you travel the path of mindfulness. You may also contact me through this blog and I AM happy to discuss.

Playfulness
We became mindful about playfulness. Now those who know my husband and I, know that playfulness is not the first word you think of. However, I knew it was time to create memories for our family. First I took my family up to Avon for a few days in October. I did not tell them where we were going. My son caught on when he looked back and saw the suitcases. His reaction was the greatest! We had a great time riding bikes by the river, taking walks, skipping rocks on the river, and enjoying the hot tube under the stars. I have planned another surprise trip very soon. What I have found is that there is never the "right" time to play. If play is not in your schedule, plan it today. It can be as easy as going to see the lights in your neighborhood. Take time with your family today. See what happens when the schedules are left behind, if only for a couple of hours.

If your kids are already grown up... it is not too late to enjoy them as adults!

Connectedness
Our family, along with all our friends, are very busy living life. It is easy to dis-connect with those we care about because of day-to-day obligations. We have made it a priority to connect. Connectedness is also a way of reconnecting to life. How easy it is to stay busy and rush around. We love to take the time to talk with people we just met, or enjoy time with friends. Listening and sharing our lives with others is such a gift for all of us. Have you given the gift of yourself to someone today? Please do, for you are the best gift of the season.

"SnowFlake", Paul Gallico
"It's Not Easy Being Green", Jim Henson

Livewellfulness
Have you ever had a thought, a feeling, or push to maybe take up a project, take a vacation, loose weight, do something you had not done before, or just feel better? Well for the past couple of months I felt an urge to take better care of myself and my family. I kept ignoring it because I knew it would take some time to implement. We have spent years researching and discovering ourselves spiritually, however physically we started and stopped more times than I can count. We usually stopped because we were too busy! Well, I came across a book series which was exactly what I needed to take care of myself and family. After receiving the book, I decided to wait until January to read it. Of course I started reading it within a week. What a change it has made for us. Amazing how a few choices in our favor can change how we look and think. However, most importantly, is how choices can change how we feel and improve our life experience so greatly!

"The Eat-Clean Diet" Tosca Reno (Any in the series. For those who want a way of life and renewal. This is the set of books my family and I are working with.)

For those who want to different option:
Books: "Get With the Program", Bob Green for those just staring to think about well being
"The Spectrum", Dean Ornish, M.D.

While we may not agree with everything in the books mention, we take what works for us. Feel free to do the same. After reading Tosca's books, and implementing clean eating, we feel better than we have in years. We are exercising not to loose weight but to feel better. We are lifting weights (ok, so I am only at 5 - 8 pounds). After a only a few weeks we are noticing a difference in ourselves and how our son is handling life. I have more energy to get things done. I have given up my chocolate chips (by the bagful) and have replaced it with food my body loves. I no longer need the afternoon naps and love playing in the yard, ping pong, or golfing with my family.

Join us! I am very excited to share this with you and anyone you want to share it with as well. For the first time in 20 years my husband and I feel like we have found a way to live physically well!

Gratefulness
Of course each of these is surrounded in gratefulness. Being in gratitude for each moment we have to choose our responses to life. May this day bring you mindfulness, playfulness, connectedness and livewellfulness. Begin to listen to your inner voice, your inner wisdom. It may just change your life!

Happy New Year to all and to all a great day,

Rev. Rosanne

A New Way of Being

A New Way of Being

I have taken the past couple of weeks off to enjoy some meditation time. While I continue to live life joyfully, I also am aware of a movement within. For the past 20 years I have listened, however, the movement has become very prominent the last couple of months.

I intend for my life to look different than before. Through making choices which benefit my mind, body, and my soul, I shall move more freely and allow the inner light to shine ever so brightly. Through choosing today and by listening to the whisper within, one can be in the flow of life. When we care for ourselves and when our very movement is an expression of Love, we open ourselves to a new way of being...

I hope you would consider joining me.

In Peace,


Rev. Rosanne Giurado

Gratitude: Inner Knowing

This month of November begins our conversation on gratitude. The heart of metaphysics is our inner knowingness, our inner wisdom. Gratitude of all things, of our life, of our very beingness, provides a path for our inner Light to rise to the surface, shining ever so brightly.

When we are concerned with our life, it only takes a glance into another’s day to see how fortunate we are. While we may be upset that our child is fussy, another parent is in the hospital watching over their child. While we may not be happy getting home late due to traffic, another family never made it home. When we stay in our lens of existence, our view is limited. When we are grateful for each moment, our view and our Light expands.

We can cultivate our wisdom within through gratitude. While we may have heard this before, I am not speaking of a quick recognition. I am speaking about a way of life; gratitude for everything right and everything not so right. It becomes a way of being, not a moment in time. When we are grateful, for our life exactly the way it is, we welcome God’s presence into our lives. We access the Light deep within our very souls.

Gratitude is a form of constant prayer. When we are in a constant state of prayer, our inner Light shines and we move within the flow of Life. Of course we need to change our thoughts on what prayer is. It is not about sitting still with hands folded. Prayer is a way of approaching our day. Prayer provides the path of least resistance.

When we open to prayer, we release our need to control. We allow ourselves to be open to life and its many tributaries. Prayer is like a stream flowing through the mountains and joining with other streams to create a river. The river then joins with other rivers and at some point joins the ocean. If the stream just stays a stream it will either evaporate or it will be swallowed by the earth. It order to grow and expand, the stream needs to flow and allow itself to join with something greater than itself. When it does it evolves and expands into a different form. Through allowing itself to expand, and finally become part of the ocean, it can hardly recognize itself. Yet the flow of the ocean will move the water effortlessly. No longer pushed down a mountain, it ebbs and flows with the tides. Strong enough to hold up ships and vessels, yet soft enough to hold a child it’s arms as she floats along. So too, does prayer move effortlessly and become strong once we join and co-create with God.

Our strength is not in our individuality, it is in what connects each of us. Our inner Light, our inner wisdom, the force within us will make our very being possible. Today, we are grateful. Today, we are in constant prayer. Today we move ourselves from being a stream to joining the ocean. Today we acknowledge our individuality. Today we honor our similarities. Today we cultivate our inner wisdom, the very heart of metaphysics, through gratitude.

I AM grateful!

October – Transitions…

As we close out this month on Halloween, we conclude our monthly series on Transitions. As we have discussed, transitions are not just the movement from human form to the next Life. Transitions can come in our everyday life, in any given moment, if we only look for the opportunity.

This month we have talked about how our life is in constant transition; moving from one experience to another. We have also discussed the transition between our individual thinking which causes separateness, to the Oneness within all humanity as celebrated during the first ever Global Oneness Day.

Today, let us delve into the beauty of life and choose to transition any given moment from one of separation, anger and frustration to one of unity, love, and peace. While I am not saying this may be easy, I am saying the choice is ours to make. Have we checked in with ourselves to see how our perceptions are creating our life in each and every moment?

Josh Groban’s song, “You Are Loved,” says:

When you're lost inside

I will be there to find you.

Don't give up

Because you want to burn bright.

If darkness blinds you

I will shine to guide you.

God’s eternal love burns bright within you. In our daily lives, how easy it can be to forget that God is not somewhere out there, but right here inside of us. “When you are lost inside…I will be there to find you.” God is there, inside you waiting for you to shine. Whenever we choose to stop seeing only the darkness, the God within shall shine brightly, thus we allow to be what always is, always has been, and always will be. We transition our everyday life from being stuck in a web of confusion and isolation, feeling trapped in our own darkness, to living and being the Light we were born to be.

Our daily responsibilities can distract us. We can loose our focus, our center. Is it possible to perceive our world, our everyday life from a place of God’s love; a place of eternal acceptance? When we feel struck down, or hurt by others, could we change our perceptions? Is it possible that we do not know what another is going through? Could we come from a place of empathy for another, thus taking our focus from isolation to unity?

Today, as we prepare to celebrate Halloween, how do our perceptions change our experience? Do we remember when we were young on this night? Might we have been scared because of frightening costumes, or unsure of what we saw or heard? Did we stay the course, knowing at the end of the night our bags would be filled with candy? What about now? Now we understand that sometimes what we see and hear is an illusion.

Could it be that just as we have grown to understand Halloween for what it really is, that we can also see life for what it really is… and what it is not? If we are experiencing darkness, it is just our illusion. We stay the course knowing that our inner self is filled with Light. We do not need to wait until it is given unto us, for the kingdom of heaven is already upon us. Jesus guided us long ago to God’s path. The path is still illumined, waiting for us to transition our old lives to a place where we are willing to fill our bags.

Events and situations happen in life, yet when we see with God’s light shining brilliantly through us, we know that any darkness is temporary. We know our inner Light will shine again when we are ready to see it. As Jesus walked up the lighted path, showing us a way to rid ourselves of darkness by opening our eyes to the Light, so too did trial come upon the path. Time and time again, the choice was to choose God’s love over the darkness of separation. He too, received the gift of choice. He too doubted and questioned, and then chose to see God’s light within all humanity. “Forgive them, for they know not what they do.”

When we choose to see the Light around us, we tend to see more Light. As more Light surrounds us, we tend to let go of the darkness. After awhile, we transition to a new way of being, a new habit forms. We look for the Light before we look for the darkness. We look for God wherever we are. In each choice we move away from separation into fully experiencing the beauty of Life. No, we do not have to wait until it is given, for it is already here.

If the beauty of life is beyond our fingertips, then it is time to stretch our arms. As we choose to reach beyond ourselves, we find the hand of God waiting to fill our bags. This Halloween day, enjoy the illusion, knowing that just beyond what you see, waits the truth of what you already know…the beauty of Life. Choose today to see all that God offers you in each and every moment.

In Peace,

Rev. Dr. Rosanne

Everyday Knowing Reminder - Sunday Message October 24, 2010 Global Oneness Day

Today we continue our discussion of transitions. This day, October 24, 2010 is also the first Global Oneness Day. As we move ourselves from the isolation and separateness we have created into the Oneness and Love which is our true inheritance, let us reflect this day on this important everyday transition which has the potential to change the world in which we live.

As we move to get out of bed each morning, how do we greet our day? Are we excited that we have a new day to express the God light within us? Do we awake with gratitude for a new day? If yesterday did not go well, do we awake knowing that it is a new day? Maybe we awake with despair or disillusion. Do we awake feeling connected or separated? Do we honor ourselves through self-care or neglect?

Is it possible that how we begin our day is how we choose to spend living our day and thus how we create our life? I am the first one to say that upon awaking I may not be in a centered form of mind. My natural sleeping rhythms are interrupted by my spouses schedule. So each day as I awake, I must make a conscious effort, a conscious decision on how I will experience my day. First, I remember to be grateful for my spouse and the employment which creates our schedule. Next, I close my eyes, relax my breathing and take a few minutes to breathe in God’s space. As my eyes relax to the center of my forehead, I feel the reconnection to spirit. I exhale and open my eyes.

Now, mind you, I still drag myself to the shower. I do, however, know that with the prepping of the mind before leaving bed, the shower will proceed to wash away separation created through the mind and return me center. It is not the shower, but the time taken within the shower through mental relaxation. It is being present within the shower and not letting thoughts of the day interfere.

As I continue getting ready for my day, each step, each choice transitions me from whatever state I awoke to the state of mind I create. I am not a victim of my mind, I AM a co-creator. Through co-creating, I transition a life being lead around by my thoughts to a life co-created with God. Through connecting to the One source, I AM open to all that I AM, all that WE are. In realizing that I choose my reaction in each moment, I become proactive in my life’s creation.

This day, October 24, 2010, is the first observance Global Oneness Day. To be aware of the Oneness of all Life around us, we must begin to understand the Oneness within ourselves. As we realize within our daily lives that we can choose to co-create with God, our judgments will begin to fall away. We are freed from our mind thoughts through conscious awareness of what we are creating through our daily thoughts. We begin to see how in any given moment we create our experience by our reactions and judgments. When we release our thoughts of how life “should be” for ourselves or how a situation “ought to be,” we allow life to flow through us, not against us. Once we begin to flow with life, we are open to clarity. As we release our judgments on ourselves and others, we are open to the wonderful idea that we are all connected. In connecting in spirit to others, we begin honoring Global Oneness Day. As we continue through each day, each month, and continuing through the years, Global Oneness spreads as our resistance to different beliefs fades and we see God’s light not only in our eyes but in all humanity.

Everyday Knowing Reminder Sunday Message: Transitions

October: Transitions…

For the month of October, we will be looking at transitions. Transitions this month will be about everyday transitions. While some people, myself included, refer to transition as the time of death, we will be looking at transitions which come through our daily lives.

If we were to sit back and review our life from the moment we were born until right in this moment, we might become aware of how our life was in constant transition. Each movement transitions us to the next one. Each choice or non-choice leads us to our next experience. Each step transitions us further upon the path we are on or moves us to a new path. When we review our life, most of us see that each second was a transition leading us right to where we are in this moment.

Could it be that instead of resisting where we are, that we are just in the middle of a transition? Could it be that instead of being anxious, or bored or confused, we just need to be patient? Is it possible that our lives are moving forward just fine? Could it be that if we allowed ourselves to slow down and see what was right in front of us that we could find what we have been running towards?

If I take a moment and notice my surrounding in any given moment, I see so many people in a hurry. We are in a hurry to get up in the morning. We hurry to eat breakfast and get to work or to school. We are in a hurry to get to our jobs or to run our errands. We are in a hurry to eat lunch so we can go back to work. We are in a hurry to get home and eat dinner so we can hurry to take the kids to practice. We are in a hurry to get home from practice so the kids and hurry and do homework, hurry and take a shower and hurry and get to bed. We are even in a hurry to go to sleep so that we can hurry to get up in the morning and start all over. I am exhausted just thinking about it!

What if we transitioned to a new way of being? What if instead of looking to what was next or what we needed to add to our life, we saw what was exactly in front of us. If we find that we are in too much of a hurry to see what is in front of us, may be it is time for us to weed our “to do” list. I would like to suggest that a list is made of everything that we need to hurry and get done. If we need to hurry and get up, can we get up earlier and meditate to set our day in peace. If we believe we cannot get up earlier, can we go to bed earlier so that we can. You can see where I am going. Lists are a great visual to see what we have committed to and to help us prioritize. We can take some quiet time to find out why we have added a specific item to our hurry “to do” list. In the silence, in the stillness, we find what we need to keep and what we need to change. We find that we can transition from the hurried life, to a peaceful life. We find that we can be in the flow, not pushed by the flow of life. As we do, more time opens up to allow greater happiness into our everyday life.

May your “to do” lists be shorter. May you find a new way of being and may the flow of life be filled with happiness.

In Peace,

Rev. Rosanne Giurado

"I Will Shine Today"

Jesus’ words on one of the ego’s uses of deceit!
Why, as your ego will remind you as ‘mere mortals’, would you even conceive of God let alone believe you were lofty enough to join Him one day, if you were not as He is?
Your ego flawed with one its most powerful weapons, deceit, would have you believe it is both possible to return to God whilst at the same time suggest that He exists not.
How can this be, for do you not ‘know’ that there is somehow a promise that returning Home is inevitable?
That shining Light within you that reaches forth and beckons He take your hand and finally lift you to Him, His Love and His Safety.
In this knowledge are you assured that deceit plays no part in your destiny, for you are not destined to die but to transcend fear into His Love.
To Leave this world where conflict and deceit breed but the same, to take your mind, to take your mind to its source once more without your belief in the body and its frail susceptibility to your ego’s ranting.
Let stillness be your guide, for while there is quiet the Mind of God through the Holy Spirit’s Light can be heard softly and calmly speaking of your certain Homecoming.
Deceive not yourself or others by the belief in anything but the essence of your fortitude and patient outcome. For your place with your Brothers and Sisters awaits your return. It has moved not from its resting place, where you left it to once again joyfully return.
To ‘know’ of God is to return to Him, for this knowing and He are inseparable. This you know!
Not the game of cycles, of contradiction, that has been your making throughout the centuries. But a clear mind and pureness of thought where God’s Voice declares with crystal clarity His strength in gentleness.
Let not the discouraging tone of the ego take from a silent moment of peacefulness and reflection in the dream, the opportunity to hear His loving message of your coming Home.
Let not the guile of the ego weave threads of untruths where no truth can exist, but let the Truth be known to your inner feelings, when His Words ring their indisputable serenity!

Everyday Knowing Reminder - Sunday Message August 29, 2010

Choose Resilience

Oh, how resilient the soul is when one chooses it to be. In our final discussion this month on choice, I ask each of us to consider how we choose to create our day-to-day life, our Everyday Life.

This summer has been, well, not the best one on record for me and my family. As my son started school, I needed to decide how I was going to choose to response to questions of “how was your summer.” I did not want to lie and say it was great, yet I also did not want to get caught up into a drama of my own creation. I choose to give myself, at max, three days to explain our summer and move on. After the first day, I began to feel uncomfortable. The next day, while I still shared what happened, I also added my spiritual beliefs about the circumstances. When people around began to offer their condolences for our multiples losses this year, I thanked them and let them know that our path was clearing, for God is ever-present. By the third day, I did not have a need to mention anything at all. When asked, I would say ok and ask how their summer vacation was. In no time I heard wonderful stories of fun, trips and when someone had a hard time, I was able to offer a place of comfort. God’s restorative power at work.

I am not saying to hide unpleasant experiences. In fact, I am glad I was able to share our loss experience and our re-awakening into God’s Love. As each of us experiences life,
sometimes the path may be rocky. In sharing, our extended brothers and sisters know that I might need some support until my mind is returned to center. “Ask for help, and it is given.” To walk upon this path called Life, is to experience many aspects and see what we can learn.

So what can we learn? When we choose resilience, we can ask for help when needed and give ourselves time to grieve or heal. All the time knowing that we will not stay in a place of sadness, but rather we will come back into the light. A friend gave me the three day gift. Taking three days to be in a space of non-light works for me. It is a way of reminding myself what it feels like to separate oneself from God’s love and to feel alone. Each one of us may need more or less time. I do suggest that less time is better than more. For it is said that habits are made or broken within 21 days. We do not need to develop the habit of unhappiness.

How do we break out of our darkness; by choosing something new. Sometimes the light will come back as daily routines are back in place. Sometime is takes a clear thought, a new action to clear away the cobwebs of separation. I was reading the paper when I came across an ad for a choir audition. I felt movement to call and sign up, so I did. Numerous times before the audition, I thought of calling to cancel. I even almost forgot to go! However by choosing to respond to God’s call, I had an incredible experience. I asked what am I here to learn God? I found what had changed since I was younger, was that I was not concerned about “passing” the audition or not. I just knew I had to be there. The experience was fabulous. I learned that I had been singing the incorrect part for most of my lifetime. As I sang in the correct range, although uncomfortable at first, I began to like it. I laughed and really opened up to the experience as it happened. As the conductor gave me some practice tools, I thanked him. I felt that this night was a gift. God provided me the opportunity to find my voice. Whether or not I am successful joining the choir, I AM grateful for an incredible experience. Today when I practiced, my voice began retraining itself. I AM gleeful knowing that through choosing to take action, God will continue to sing in
my life.

How will you choose to be resilient this day? Do not let life experiences take you down a dark road. Allow yourself to feel and then choose to bounce back to life. Every situation in life is an opportunity to separate or to be in Unity with God. Choose to be resilient; choose to be in the Light of God. Choose to take action and engage in life. Life is waiting for you. The outcome is not the main concern; it is walking upon the path we co-create with God.

************************************************************************

As we move into meditation, let us release any need to be separate. As we open up to our greater selves we relax into the peace which always is, always has been at the center of our being. Knowing right here that we can choose to take action in our lives, we are free to re-engage in life. As we leave any darkness behind, we behold the light of God surrounding us, holding us, comforting us. In choosing to co-create with God, our actions confirm our commitment to honor the Light within ourselves and others. How grateful we are for each situation, each event, and each circumstance which brings us to a higher awareness of the amazing resilience of the divine presence within.

May choice be ever at your call, may your heart be open to listen, and may your soul be gleeful as you choose to engage in Life on your Everyday Life Path.
And So It Is!
