Dear Zach,
It is always a good morning when I read words in this forum from you or Eric (LOL Geoff, Welles, Rod, Robert, Roxie, Kim, and Alena too among all my other "lovies" as our friend, Anne, Blue Nova, used to call us) I've been doing some thinking and pondering about this wonderful "meditation thingy" we all do each in our own way...and I am thinking it is all good. And it is good to sort of sit back and allow all the experiences meant for you to come to you rather then try to force them... For instance we can hear something wonderful that someone has experienced in meditation and we think .. "Ho boy! wouldn't that be lovely!"

, and sort of, without meaning too, Bang! it enters into our "mind list" of "wouldn't that be nice things" when we begin our meditation practice. I suppose if we really narrowed it down, we would definitely remember that meditation is what it is, something individual and unique for each person and it truly is
practice. The whole point isn't necessarily to travel to Andromeda, heal 13.5 people etc...It's soul purpose is to perhaps allow us closer access to our Divine Parent...to experience greater flow of that Love through our being. And then with that and the connection it provides these lovely little side affects some unique to us can and will happen.
We seem to think that our meditation is not successful if we have a case of the "can't get comfortable in my chair syndrome" or " our mind chatter" is loud enough to wake good ole Great Uncle Fredrick from his cold and ancient grave. Yet nothing is further from the truth because just sitting down and giving it the good ole "college try" for even ten minutes, regardless on whether we feel like we made some ground, still counts as a success, a win, on the celestial score card. We've tried, we've put forth some effort with a hopeful intention and it is true then that our divine parents have promised to reach for us in these moments. If we don't feel it yet, it is because these things are expressed via our senses and sometimes we may be looking for confirmation in one sense when it is glaring us in the face with another... or we just aren't at that point yet... where we are proficient at sensing energy or seeing, or hearing or intuiting. sensing these vibrations and energy can take practice too. But we all, every single one of us, will! We have a celestial iron clad guarantee on that! ... So chin up and let's be happy in the knowledge that we are loved and are growing in ways, amazing ways, as we sit here today. That we don't have to be meditating gurus and that our
daily short meditations are just that, meditation practice, and just as they are squirmy or blissful, they are absolutely accepted as such by those high beings who know from whence they come.
One of these days we will wake up and say, "Oh my! Look at me, I used to get so bent out of shape when this would happen... but I understand now where it or he or she is coming from or why a person says and does what they do etc.. shoot! why I do and say what I do?

That too is progress, eh?

There is no blueprint for spiritual growth and I don't care who it is, everyone has moments, days even weeks when they feel flat and off, when they wonder what in the world is the matter with them! It is all part of being human, I think, and nothing to worry about as we have to juggle sometimes very crazy and busy lives.
So pat yourself on the back and say, "Sandy says I'm okay!"

LOL just kidding,

don't give a fig about what I think... No, pat yourself on the back and say... "I am loved just the way I am!" "I am growing and learning at my own pace and everything is just as it should be in my spiritual development." And so, with that "little self serving egotistical monkey" off our back... we will do well.
Love you guys to bits!
Sandy
