Today is indeed the first day of the rest of my life. While i was out weeding one of my flower beds in the beautiful morning sun...I was overwhelmed by a glorious feeling of oneness. With a tear in my eye i just sat and listened.The wisdom of the mother infused me if only for a moment..I saw clearly my path! I was given at birth a name of a goddess. The name of my grandmother. My name is Slavic for...a gift from god. In ancient text...Goddess of the waters.My name is Iva. A vision so great i cannot describe in words was the gift i received! Just this morning i saw a world at peace...truly at peace. Not far from today.Not without great loss to many. The mother will swallow whole the lives of many.Through acts of man and acts of earth.Through fire.Much fire.Many will suffer.Through mans hands.We will be awakened!This my friends is a vision i almost did not share with you.But the time is near.Visions as this one were the reason i was told as a child that i was mentally ill. Mt Saint Helen's..A tsunami...great earthquakes...to things as cosmically small as my parents divorce..the attempt on my life..The birth of my children, who i was told i would never have.This is a time for love..not fear.A time to embrace...not hate.

I find myself surrounded in humans who are full of fear.Their fear can be overwhelming to me at times.So one by one i try to set them at ease.To those who do not know that i am an empath...this is a relief. For those who know..it seems to create a mixed feeling of relief and questioning. A close friend asked me if i could read her mind. I explained to her that i feel her thoughts..not read them. I told her that her sacred thoughts are still sacred.Though sometimes people broadcast their inner dark thoughts,i choose to not react to them.On occasion though...people broadcast their intent to harm others.Then i indeed react...strangely enough most people are soothed by a simple smile and thought of the blessings they have found in life. The aura changes almost instantly.The energy warms.This is by far the most rewarding experience that i as an empath can have.

As i try to find my place again in an ever changing world i find that i have wondered so very far from me.All of the stresses from the outside world. All of the negative experiences that i have had. All of the gifts that i have thrown away. How can i find my way back? With hope and hard work i suppose. With the love for humanity and faith in our world.I have my hopes and dreams to get me through.The desire to live as i am on the inside...the hope to be. No i am not depressed or sad...indeed i am in love with life! I see the challenges before me and face them with the strength of a thousand. I believe that we are all connected. I believe that we are one. The challenge i face now is to re align.I must find that strength in myself to make the changes in my life. To let go of my vices. To again feel the hope that has seen me through. It would be so very easy to just pack up my car and go... but the easy way will not get me there. Running away from myself has come much to easily in the recent past. I am here and i Hope!
