Greetings!
Under the title of my blog "Loveshines", I wrote "In faith, I share with you my experiences. My experiences are not just mine and yours are not just yours for in truth We Are One. Let LOVE shine through the blog as the title has intended". Since I stepped outside of my family in 2005 to socialize with other people, I found from my experiences that it was very true that we were intricately intertwined.

I usually prayed for answers or relief to a challenging situation / relationship during the night. On quite a few occasions, guidance came to me the moment I woke up. It might be I was more receptive to inner guidance as I came out of the sleeping state than other times of the day. It often came as a message (i.e. a sentence). For example, there was a time I was very worried about the well being of a loved one. For many nights, I prayed earnestly for help from the Divine. One morning, these words came to me as I woke up.
"LOVE HAS NO FEAR."
Meanwhile, I found myself in a powerful field of loving energy. As I reflected on the message, I realized how true the words were. The cause of my suffering was but the result of my fear / worries for the well being of the loved one. In the human sense, my fear was normal and justified. However, fear never helped in any situation. Lying in bed, I asked for love and support to release my fears. Holding the truth that "All Is Well", I surrendered the situation into the Loving Divine.

When I began to sit among other people, occasionally, an experience or a message that I had received came to my mind. It was like an inner prompting to share. In the beginning, I often dismissed the thought. Sometimes I felt the message / experience was irrelevant to the talk that went on. Most of all, I looked at my experiences as personal, and I was not comfortable to share them especially I knew I had to speak in English. Therefore, I suppressed the prompting to share, and many times I ended up rushing to the bathroom coughing nonstop.
It took me quite some time to be more at ease in sharing my experiences. While the human I sometimes thought the incident / message was irrelevant, I found out time after time what I related was in fact what one or two of my friends needed to hear at that particular time. In time, I was more open to share my experiences. In my posts, I had mentioned the facilitator always began the circle by relating to us the guidance that came to her in her meditation. On a few occasions, tears filled my eyes as I listened. I knew from deep within my heart that the Divine had talked to me with love through her, and I was grateful.
Indeed, my experiences are not just my experiences, and your experiences are not just yours. The guidance that comes to you may be the guidance I need to hear. It is in the joy of sharing, we live, laugh, cry, connect*, and feel the wonders of Oneness.
Many blessings,

*Connect is only a matter of speech since we are never separated from one another.
