When I sit down to write, I find a time when I can be uninterrupted, which is usually early in the morning before my scheduled day has begun. I usually start by reading something inspirational or meditating to create some "space" and to allow my mind to relax and tune out all the noise. By noise, I mean all the thoughts that usually occupy my thinking. Originally, when I first began writing, I "asked" not to hear more than a word or two at a time. Why? Because if I heard a sentence, I would automatically start thinking about where the subject of that sentence was heading. Then, I believe the words would have come out of ego, or my wanting to control the outcome of the message. So, writing for me is allowing my spirit to flow through me onto the paper. It is allowing myself to be quiet and tuning out the messages of the world and agreeing to be a vehicle for the message to be heard.

When I write, I write down exactly what I hear. I always ask for the message to be of "good and God." Later, when I am finished writing, I read what is written to learn of the message. Until then, I have not actually read in full what I have written. With practice, I have been able to distinguish between the energies that I feel and hear while I am writing. When the energy begins to feel different, I can physically see my handwriting change as I am writing the words.

We all have a spirit within us that wants to communicate. We need to be willing to quiet ourselves long enough to listen and open enough to accept what we hear. Many of us do not believe we are qualified or worthy to hear these messages, so we deny the very source of our most profound inspirations. I urge you to give it a try.
