Top Story - March 2025

A mighty bridge, you kept us safe from drowning in thoughts and restricting feelings from the past , by shepherding us between the guard rails that threaten to give way and let us catapult into the troubled waters below. You will not let us go under though , and the undertow is no match for you because your strength comes from He who created the waters.

Your abilities beyond ordinary, even extraordinary... your uncanny gift of knowing who we are inside and out before we even know we've been assessed. Showing us who we are, and working to get us where you intuitively already know that we want to go. Redesigning the architecture of broken minds and hearts to be beautiful in form and function- as they were originally created. You are uncanny in the best of all ways, not just knowing but doing. Using your treasures to enrich so many others, not just materially but spiritually and emotionally. You treat the waiter with a genuine kindness and appreciation that is exceptional and impacting. You impart value and compassion to every person you meet and if that's enmeshment, then I want to do it too. Your village is huge, because it includes every employee that is blessed to work with you, and their whole families. You help everyone you meet in some way, and I love your heart for that. You are selfless, truly selfless in so many ways.

I don't know where He ends and you begin: I can never catch a clear glimpse of that blurred line. Enmesh me. Keep teaching me, so that I can be a fraction of who you are, because I'm noticing a difference in my self every day. You are patient, you are kind, you are humble, you are generous and you are compassionate. You are gifted in so many ways. You were made to leave a mark wherever you go. You came here to deliver freedom and understanding, to take the mystery out of the things that bind hearts and minds. A beautifully designed masterpiece of the Architect of the universe.

    This is magnificent on a few levels. To know a person such as this is surely a gift. May we know who this is? He or she has been placed into your life for a reason, quite possibly a divine purpose. You have been blessed. This is a Top Story, of life and love.
