Trust

Trust is Taking a Step forward, in spite of not knowing what the outcome of that step might be.
Trust is Walking in the Light of Faith, even when your mind is full of uncertainties.
Trust is Hoping in the face of improbability.
Trust is Believing the Path you are on is the One Meant For You.
Trust is closing your eyes and Listening with your Spirit.
Trust is Knowing that you will never be led to a place you cannot contend with or from where you cannot Learn and Grow.
Trust is Behaving like what you Expect to happen has Already happened.
Trust is Working towards Goals you never Dreamed of Setting.
Trust is Smiling when the Sweet Voice of Reassurance Whispers in your ear that Everything will be All Right.
Trust is Living with Joy when you are surrounded by cheerlessness and anger.
Trust is Waking to the Dawn with a Thankful Heart.
Trust is Loving even before Love Arrives.
Trust is a Daily Choice.
Trust Trusts.

~Morgan~

When Weakness is Strength – #Fantasy #CharacterSketch

ayla

.

Ayla is one of the lead characters of Dark Fey. She was present in my thoughts from the initial dream that Inspired the story; yet she is very often misunderstood by readers. Although the story could not progress without her, even I find myself frequently annoyed by her overly emotional volatility, so I decided to give my readers a bit of background about her, as well as, perhaps, an explanation.

Be Not Afraid – #Inspirational #Poetry

Be Not Afraid

.

Though the jagged edge of

Fear and Doubt

Fill the Heart with Trepidation,

Though the wrenching Memory of

Past pains

Rush in to demoralize and devastate,

Though the innate Desire to Protect

Yourself, Your Heart,

Builds a wall that secludes and separates;

Be Not Afraid,

Stand Upon the Mountain

Of Your Hope,

Reach for the Glittering Sparkle

Of Possibility,

Embrace Your Spirit

By Filling Your Heart

With the Love for which it Longs,

With the Laughter it Seeks,

With the Keen Delight for which it Yearns,

If only for the briefest moment in Time,

For Moments are what Fill a Life,

Sparkling Gemstones of Precious Memory,

And Shadowy jet lignite of Challenges

Now Contrasting in Shimmers that make those

Diamonds of Joy and Contentment

Glimmer even more Brightly;

Be Not Afraid,

Sing into the Vast Expanse,

Shine Your Beautiful Light,

And Be at Peace with

You!

.

This one rather speaks for itself, but I found it this morning in the midst of my own hailstorm of the worlds ugliness.  I was perusing Facebook and came upon a post of two teens who had cut off a dogs ears and then posed for a picture with the poor suffering animal. WHY!!!!!!!! my Spirit screamed as my stomach twisted into knots and tears welled in my eyes.  What drives us to such horrible actions?

Darkness.  Evil.  Hatred.  Cruelty.  They exist in plenty and fill this world, everywhere we look.  So, I find it a Blessed reaffirmation that Light, Love and Hope also exists, that in such a terrible and anger filled moment, LOVE reached out to remind me of just this.  Be Not Afraid.

I will certainly try…

~Morgan~

#FridayFeyDay – The Tale Begins – #Inspiration

Tales

The Tale Begins

When you Believe

In Your Dreams

.

Simple words, but oh so powerful, really.  How many times have you paused along the way because you had a fanciful notion, something you thought would be amazing, or Inspiring, but then, after a wistful smile perhaps, you continued on without ever truly considering the possibilities?

Imagine, if you will, if Alice never braved the rabbit hole or if Cinderella closed her eyes to her dreams and kept on washing dishes. What would have become of them? Would they have lived to see happier days, brighter tomorrows, or would they have slipped down the precarious slopes of despair?  Can you visualize how gray their worlds would be without the bright glimmer of hope emanating from their dreams?

Dreams are there for us to enjoy AND Believe in, or at least, that’s what I like to think. Too often they are shattered by the cruel hand of reality, but please let me tell you, without sounding like Im blowing my own trumpet, Dreams Really Do Come True, IF you insist on Believing in them.

Trust.

.

trust.

.

Trust yourself.  Trust the Dream that keeps whispering to you.  Trust the path leading you in a new direction.

Hope.

.Hope-Pierces-the-Darkness

.

Hope in the promise of a new tomorrow. Hope in the Possibility that lies waiting before you. Hope with your full heart and Hope with Expectation that the Dream you Trust and Hope in shall Be.

Then…

BE the Dream you Trust and Hope to See.

.

This Ache Within

This Ache Within

Sings so Sweetly,

Painfully Yearning,

Yet Trusting Completely,

That Promise ‘pends Upon the Morrow

And Holds the Key to Transform Sorrow.

Love Speaks

Love Speaks Softly when the Night is Dark,
Igniting Hope with the tiniest Spark.

Love Speaks Gently when despair is near,
Coaxing Trust where there is only fear.

Love Speaks Kindly when anger’s in full fury,
Encouraging Patiently to eliminate worry.

Love Speaks In Prayer when there is Need,
Bridging the Divide to Tenderly Intercede.

Love Speaks in Whispers Heard by the Soul,
Mending the Sorrow to Make Everything Whole.
