"somewhere to put the truth" audio podcast by our daughter (kassandra!)

 i know the value of what you are doing; the healing powers of this podcast for you, your loved ones and strangers who are experiencing their own unique challenges.   -so i am happy for and proud of you.

i know the value of  -real and raw.    the value of 'not polished or planned'

i know the value of  'somewhere to talk where i don't have to edit myself''

  'not in front of a camera'

i know the value of an unrestricted platform  'where it can be longer'

i know the value of not feeling obligated;  'not having to keep a conversation going'

i fully, completely, understand your need for "somewhere to put the truth."

i have so much gratitude for the platforms that provide an unrestricted opportunity to share.

we are designed for it.  we are not created to hide, hold onto, 'carry' heavy weights, 

we need, spiritual plumbing, if you will..    to unclog, remove blocks, until our experiences, our truths flow freely -through- us and we feel light again..

i still remain a 'fully converted, non converter'   -that is, i do not aim to convert anyone to Christianity  -I do not spend time with anyone, with this as an open or hidden agenda

but it is my truth, that

 i accepted many years ago an invitation. 

the invitation is this:    -come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls].

   -do not grow weary of doing good,  -in due season you will reap a harvest..

it is my truth, that i made it!  from the pit, to the palace..  [my inner-being]   -how i feel on the inside..

****

and i am grateful for the blogosphere for the same reason you are grateful for the podcast platform..

   -somewhere to put my truth; not polished or planned; -honest.   unedited, raw, real, 

and our healing gets to show; the process. 

****

not just you, or i,   -but human-beings..       the wonder of our birth, 'wonderful are God's works, that our inner self knows right well. 

happy for, proud of, and love you!  grateful you are sharing your journey, and ready to listen to more..

hallelujah & amen!   

wait! one more share:  true for me..  but true for secular, Christian, anyone of any faith..

when you are processing/dealing with a crisis of whatever kind:

    -do exactly what you've done, and will continue to do with your podcast;   -release...

but also,  and i learned this most valuable lesson from joyce meyer..

have windows where you 'get yourself (your own problems) off your mind'

   -get lost in a book, story, activity where you can get yourself and what you are going through off your mind..      mind breaks. 

do something for others..    

toggle between those two:   release; share yourself, talk about yourself, speak your truth..  let what you are going through be the most important thing... the priority; let it all go...

and then,  -get yourself off your mind.

continue to toggle..    powerfully healing!!  POWER FULL

and the healing is in finding a healthy ratio between the two..  not all one, not all the other: BOTH

switch back and forth.      -amen.
