Do you have one person that made such a huge impact on your life?

I do. That is my godmother, Maryanne. She is such a gift to me. I’ve always said that she is my evidence that there are angels who walk among us. Her beauty on the inside radiates on the outside as well.

She is that voice always reminding me that I am “a precious child of God.” She would give me messages of how I would light up a room, or what a blessing I am.

I could do no wrong in her eyes, and I was never considered a problem or a pain in the butt to her. This was a big mental and energetic shift for me when I was in her presence, compared to what I was used to in my usual environment.

This is one of the reasons I created the Enlightened Kid Program. I know firsthand how important consistent loving and light-filled messages are in a child’s development. I can equate one of the main differences between my sister’s life and her ultimate path of suicide, and my path of deep healing and teaching to my godmother, Maryanne.

I have so much appreciation and gratitude for her being that person who has always thought about me from the highest perspective and has held me in such a beautiful light, just as our Source holds each one of us.

I had a dream about her one night and decided to call her. I was able to communicate with my godfather, Bob, and he told me that her health has deteriorated and that she is in a group home.

I knew what I had to do. I scheduled a trip back home to Arizona to spend time with her. This trip was truly magical for so many reasons. It really was a spiritual retreat for me, even though I did not spend the time meditating or doing processes for hours. I allowed myself to be connected with my inner being; I stayed in my own energy and power and radiated love. This included the time that I had with my parents, the time spent with Maryanne, and also with myself.

Staying connected within my body and being present with myself in the presence of others allowed me to truly have such a rich experience.

Seeing Maryanne in a wheelchair—so thin and drifting in and out of consciousness—was not easy to do. But it was those moments when she came into her body and recognized me where we connected from the deepest parts of our souls.

I joked that it was like being with a dog that gets excited every time you go out to get the mail or leave for just a few minutes. She would drift off and then come back and see me and get all excited all over again.

I have no idea if I will physically see Maryanne again, but I do know that the soul connection that we share will always be alive, and we will forever be connected.

I invite you to be present in your own life, even during difficult situations. There is so much you can learn about yourself in those moments.

As always, in this newsletter, there are teleseminars, resources, affirmations, and meditations to help you on your journey to empowerment. Here is a link to my recent interview with Dina Proctor’s show Madly Chasing Peace on BlogTalkRadio.com where we discuss my journey and the Law of Attraction.

Have an amazing month and know that you deserve everything you desire and more!

Imagine and enjoy,

“Your outer reality is a direct reflection of how you feel about yourself.”

Max’s first kiss!
