\"water<\/a><\/span>I once saw thoughts and beliefs described as writing words on water. I love that image. Seeing the words dissolve into a watery, wavering rainbow of colors on the surface of the water with dancing lights below. That is the image my mind conjures up of words on water. <\/p>\n

When I think of my doubts, judgments and fears that way it is much easier to change them. I find images helpful when it comes to changing how I think and what I experience as the result.<\/p>\n


\nWhat is really real?<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/b>What is really real anyway? Our thoughts about reality, what we’ve been told to believe, what we think we experience, what we expect, what they say about reality? What really is real? Maybe none of what we think is real. Maybe that is where faith comes in and changes our reality.<\/p>\n

Angels really can fly<\/b><\/font><\/p>\n

When we have the courage to see the world through the eyes of angels everything changes. <\/p>\n

The most important question I ever answered for myself was: Is this a safe universe or a hostile one; is this universe based on love or fear. If I choose fear it is an entirely different world, very dangerous, hostile and downright nasty. When I choose to see it as the angels do, though the eyes of love life becomes full of joy, ease and laughter.<\/p>\n

Which world will you choose to live in? You can choose love thought by thought you know. The world you live in really is up to you.<\/p>\n

With love and aloha,
\nSusan<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n

Angels are everywhere just open your mind and your heart to the signs.<\/p>\n

Make Angels on Your Shoulder<\/a> part of your daily routine and share it with a friend! <\/p>\n
