Many believe it is unattainable, a far off dream from a bygone era, and have resolved themselves to what they believe is the sober truth of life and left the dream behind.<\/p>\n But the dream is attainable. We can have the zeal for life we would all like to have. We can live joyously and free, unencumbered by fear and anxiety that plagues so many people today. It is indeed possible. We all carry this potential inside us to do this, its just waiting to be discovered. Celebration presents this possibility through the life of a very special person who shows the way.<\/p>\n Peace with ourselves and our world around us is not a dream, it is possible, it is attainable. Grab this dream and live to the full expression as you were meant to. Celebration shows how this is possible for all of us with practical teachings throughout the exciting story of an extraordinary life lived in this fullness.<\/p>\n Angela used to get to school early every morning so she could spend quiet time in her favorite spot on the edge of the school grounds. She would raise her head looking high up into the trees and again listen for her favorite sound, the wind through the tall pine trees. Sometimes she would close her eyes and listen to the sound and feel the breeze run across her, brushing by and her as, feeling it raise her spirit.<\/p>\n The sound of someone approaching and then a sweet voice broke her out of her thought.<\/p>\n \u201cOh, I\u2019m sorry, I didn\u2019t mean to startle you.\u201d<\/p>\n Angela looked up to see the face of a girl from her school that she recognized but didn\u2019t know.<\/p>\n \u201cIt’s no problem, I\u2019m Angela.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m Emily. I don\u2019t want to interrupt you.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI see you go up here and sit every morning and was wondering what you do?\u201d She said looking a little embarrassed, then laughing nervously. \u201cI mean if that\u2019s okay to ask?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSure,\u201d Angela answered, \u201cI come up here to get aligned to start the day.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAligned?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYeah,\u201d Angela said, \u201cOne with the world around me and at peace personally.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWow, cool, sounds great, what do you do to do that?\u201d She hesitated, \u201cIf that\u2019s okay?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSure, I become conscious of what\u2019s around me, I look, I listen.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHow?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHere,\u201d Angela said, She gestured with her hand. \u201cSit down.\u201d<\/p>\n Emily sat down alongside Angela, facing the same way.<\/p>\n \u201cLook around.\u201d Angela said and then sat quietly for minute.<\/p>\n \u201cTake it all in.\u201d Then she added, \u201cConsciously, intentionally.\u201d<\/p>\n She waited. Then Angela added. \u201cDo you notice more than you did before?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYes,\u201d Emily said and smiled.<\/p>\n \u201cClose your eyes.\u201d Angela said.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat do you hear?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cA lot,\u201d Emily said smiling, her nervousness gone from her voice.<\/p>\n \u201cI hear the birds. Their song is beautiful.\u201d She paused, turning her head a bit. \u201cThere are so many. They sound so busy. And, I hear them flying. I hear the wind. I hear students in the distance. Its sounds like the start of a day.\u201d She laughed happily.<\/p>\n Angela smiled. \u201cThat\u2019s great.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhat else do you do here?\u201d Emily asked curiously.<\/p>\n \u201cI meditate, and, I keep myself aligned.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAligned. I want to know more about what that means.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s like keeping your center, your balance with you and your world. Being at peace. Alignment is when you are on the path of peace and harmony. We are prone to lose it, have to get it back.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cCan you teach me to do this?\u201d Emily asked. After a short pause she added, \u201cI would really like to learn.\u201d She looked down then smiled, \u201cI want what you have.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhat\u2019s that? Angela asked.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYou’re different. You have a\u2026peace about you. You seem really happy.\u201d Emily seemed to be searching hard for the words, and seemed to feel a little sad saying them. \u201cAnd, you\u2026seem\u2026happy with who you are.\u201d<\/p>\n Angela smiled a tight, sweet smile at Emily. \u201cSure, I will, sure.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\nDescription<\/h2>\n
