We go through life, suffering, grumbling, and simply doing what needs to be done, increasingly becoming numb to all the emotional chaos around us, accepting it as Life's hurdles increasingly become more challenging until a day, intense emotional pain is no longer bearable.

Broken hearted and dispirited, a voice deep within the mind agonizes:  "What is the point of it all?"  Mental despair becomes a prime catalyst for creating dramatic changes within a complacent mind.

To personalities, the ego mind reasons that repetitive suffering gives us reason to judge, for others must surely be responsible for our misery, and are guilty for an attacking us. 


To the Higher Self, the Holy Spirit/Jesus, suffering is caused by our "reactive behavior of immediate  judgment" and is the sole greatest cause of our suffering.

When we are able to comprehend the truth that we are immortal souls that no one can harm us, our minds  let go of all judgement, and embrace eternal invulnerability, instead.


As a mind gradually release the concept of a personal self, embracing its true reality of an eternal Spirit,  knowledge quickly transforms reality.

Focus is then redirected  from pain caused by life challenges to  wisdom and immense growth that  life experiences offer.


What was seen as pointlessness, now reveals purpose. 

What was looked upon as a burden causing great pain and anguish, now is seen as a divine gift.


No longer do we regard ourselves as victims of life,  but see ourselves as gracious recipients of celestial blessings as being a normal part of life.

About Me and Art

Jeanette lived an ordinary life with a simple beginning. Growing up on a farm, a young mind found solace, contentment, entertainment, and adventure creating imaginary worlds along with all that was essential to give them life.

 

Her aloneness was a potent seed implanted into a receptive creative mind. It was the medium that provided a unique ability to visualize possibilities and potentialities in all things, merely waiting to be lovingly manipulated, molded, shaped,  and fashioned into form.

 

Her aspiration for perfection was influenced by an intense desire to exemplify the seven virtues of creation: faith, trust, patience, kindness, purity, humility, and perfect love of Oneness.
