Greets Lisa,

I don't expect that I should win another beautiful gift, there are others who have not yet had that pleasure. But I wanted to share my happiest moment.

My Father had passed away, he had been gone for a few weeks. I had been calling to him to help me to release him to his new life and not keep him tied to me.

I went to bed, expecting to cry myself to sleep again. But I must have gone straight to sleep. Stood before me was my Dad, he offered me his hand, which I took. He said to me "I'm here, I may move on but no one can take me out of your life, I was your father. We share every memory, and I have come to take you on a walk, so that we can talk a while".

He was wearing what looked like a robe made of Light. I was wearing the same type of robe. He said "Look to your feet" which I did. I saw what looked like a beautiful silvery shimmery water. I said "Oh this is too beautiful to be real" He said "kick up your foot", which I did. An incredible silvery shower exploded everywhere. I looked at my Dad, and he smiled at me. That, I to this day believe was his way of letting me know we were not in a dream.

We started to walk. We talked for what seemed like hours, and he gave me instructions on how to move forward, which has helped me beyond measure. He gave me messages for my mother and sister and brother. But most of all he gave me the happiest moment of my life. He returned to me when I needed him the most.

When I died I was hoping he would be there to greet me. But I realised that if he had been there, there was no way known that I would return to this life. So all 3 times I passed, he was not there. I will know I am not returning when I see his beautiful smiling face greeting me in the Light.

But this was the happiest moment, the next happiest was when I learned to simply forgive and move on, free from everything that ties one to sadness...

Many Bright Blessings,

Darryl

I am also a proud winner of a Satin Cystals prize of the month, but I will share anyway ;)

My happiest day is a bit of a cliche as it is the day that my beautiful daughter Lila was born.

I had had a long and beautiful pregnancy so much so that Lila was very reluctant to come out. I had been in labour for a long time before we left for the hospital and when I was finally checked, despite my contractions being so close together I wasn't progressing. I had planned a natural birth from the very start. I had done all the reading and all of the exercises, I couldn't wait to have this amazing being in my life, but she wouldn't leave the comfort of the womb :D

I hang on a bit longer, but was so so tired by this time, the doctor told me I had to have a cesarean section, which made me feel awful as the whole pregnancy I had been surrounded by angry mothers talking about the tragedy of all of the un natural births these days. I went into the operating theatre with my heart pounding and full of worry. I had to have a general anaesthetic as in the rural hospital I had her in there was no real choice. I went off into unconcsious really filled with regret.

I remember them wheeling me back to my room after the operation. I had to wait for her for a while and I couldn't bear it. I was still feeling guilty that I had failed her in some way. Then the nurse wheeled her in. All the worry, all the guilt and regret just melted away. I no longer blamed myself when I held her in my arms and felt how perfect the union was. It didn't matter how she got there, I just knew that she was supposed to be there in that minute with me and her father. It seems so silly and insignificant now how much emphasis I put on the details and forgot what a shining light was coming into my life. She continues to give me happy happy days, and hours, and minutes and seconds, she is a gift and has taught me much about myself already. How could that life not have started with my happiest day ever?!

Lisa, family is always the best, and happiest, but outside of that I would have to say saving the life of my horse Orrie. He was destined to go to slaughter at that time in his life. Where he had been born to a Arabian racing stable, to stand for stud for a considerable amount of money, a divorce happened. All horses were sold in a hurry and not nearly for the amount they were worth. I came upon him by a person who had bought him from the racing stable and did not understand the Arabian breed, he was bought because he was 'pretty' but his front legs were injured due to a stallion fight, he went for a cheap price. Orrie did heal and become a riding horse but the person who bought/owned him thought him to be crazy and unreliable and was shipping him to slaughter. No one would buy him at auction due to the looks of his front legs. I heard about him and went to see just what this crazy Arab looked like. The minute I saw him I knew him not crazy but a very intelligent horse who needed someone that understood his ways. I could see his soul in his eyes! I bought him on the spot and he about ran with me to the horse trailer jumped in faster than I could lead. I believe Orrie understood what was happening and that he would be going to a place where he would be safe. It took several months and lots and lots of love and caring for him to settle into his new life. His legs have healed up and with a few scars left. For the first few years I worked on them with essential oils, oils, and lots of hugs most of the scaring is now gone. At that time I did not know Reiki or Crystals. I have had Arabian horses for many years but Orrie is special to me he has become a beautiful and kind friend.
This has to be one of my best moments.

What an amazing horse Susan. You are quite lucky.

My happiest moment came in stages..and is still comming daily. Let me explain.

I knew I had a path, like we all do, I just had no idea what mine was. I poked around here and there, trying to find my path. Until one day, I found this site due to an crystal order I made online. I poked around and found a girl just like myself.

Leandra has been an inspiration to me as well as an instant friend. She showed me things I knew about but never understood. Meeting her, has put me on my path and I am not only a better person for it, I am a better mother, wife and friend. I have found peace. I am an Empath, I am a lightworker. No matter what another says, the truth lies within me and so does my happiness.

No one has the authority to put another down or dictate thier beliefs and actions. There is freedom in this path I have found, and I eagerly move forward to my destiny. People, even supposed teachers, will let you down. It is careful to judge people by actions and not words. Faith and the Creator will not ever let me down. All things for a reason. These lessons have given me strength in who I am and what I wish to become.

My happiest moment? Everyday from this day forward. Happiness I found, is a choice we make for ourselves everyday.

Thanks!

Lisa,
The happiest day of my life happened when my daughter thanked me for being her mom. She went on to tell me it was because of me, she is the person she is today. ( I might add here beautiful, loving and my guardian angel). She's always there with words of wisdom. I could say shes my amethyst because she knows just how to calm and center me.
As a Mom we have no books or rules to follow on bringing up our children but knowing how she felt showed me that I had done my job well.

I was privileged a few years ago to sit with a friend just prior to her passing and to be visited by her afterward in order to give a special message to her family members who were also mourning the loss of a stillborn within days of her death. It was the most spiritually profound experience of my life. I was able to sense those entities who came to escort her over as well as her joy at being released and her determination to communicate with her friends and family after her passing, and their relief and peace upon learning that Hazel had that baby in safe keeping. I'm very lucky to be able to experience visits from friends and family who have crossed over and relay their messages.

PS It's good to see that Darryl is now better.

One of the happiest moments in my life. was actually about 2 months ago, when I set myself free as far as what I believe. All my life I have had a certain faith, not because it was what I believe but because what I was brought up to believe. Which at the time is all I knew. My belief system has changed dramatically in the last 6 years since my husband died of cancer at age 46. But it wasn't until August of this year that I realized the path I was going to take. I went to a friends wedding and at the tables everyone got a little organza bag with a Rose Quarts and a card telling you of its healing qualities. It was at that point I just knew what direction I was going in. I also found or they found me.. this and 4 other similar sites. that are helping me to grow spiritually. It is like a rebirth for me & I am like a kid in a candy store :-) I now tell people who ask that I am spiritual not religious. I feel now that spirituality is so much deeper and more personal than the term religion. After I recieved the Rose quartz. I purchased a Clear Quartz Point and an Amethyst point as I have an Autoimmune disease, diagnosed last February. so I use the Amethyst for my headaches and sleeping and the Quartz point to boost its power. So this is definitely one of the happiest times of my life. because I am now enlightened and feel like I am on a path that really is working for me. Blessings to you. Joan. aka Angelbear

The happiest moment of my life was on my 29th birthday. That was the day, I became a mother after a 15 month pregnancy. What????? We applied to adopt 15 months prior and my first child, my daughter, now 16 arrived on my birthday. She arrived at the airport at 7:52 P.M. on April 6, 1992. She was 5 weeks and and absolutely the most beautiful baby in the universe. Being a new mother made this probably the happiest and most emotional moment of my life. However, it can not overshadow the moment, 4 years later, to the day, on my 32nd birthday. When after a 2 week pregnancy, we picked my son up at his foster home in Florida to come home permanently after a visitation period. He was 3 months old and of course the most handsome baby in the universe. These are my two lovely indigos here to make a difference and to make my life complete.

Thank you everyone for your beautiful stories. What an uplifting page to read! It was difficult to choose this month's winner, because there were 2 stories that really touched my heart. But I do have an affinity towards animals, so I would like to Congratulate Susan Schultz as this month's winner. Say Hello to Orrie for us all! :)

OMG!!!! I have just read the announcement that I have won the necklace! OMG! I can hardly believe this. Thank you. If the necklace is strong enough I will be sharing it with Orrie when riding and if he is not wearing it you can bet I will be. He will be the best looking horse on the trail and in any parades that we may be in. I will be sure to take pictures and put them on MY PAGE . Reading the other stories that have been placed for the month of Dec are very inspiring to me. Thank you again. Susan
