I woke up this morning to a message from Gidget, Remember, you are fine just the way you are.
Just the other day I saw her in my mind’s eye on one side of me, while my spirit animal, a white wolf, named Laiola was on the other side. I couldn’t have felt more protected and cared for.
I love that about these two. They just show up when I need them most offering support and reassurance.
I couldn’t help but think of Gidget this morning as the gift that just keeps on giving.
Little did I know when I wrote my last memoir, I’m Fine Just the Way I Am which was a gift and message from Gidget that she was fine just as she was of which she’d communicate to me through an animal communicator — and came at a time I thought I wasn’t doing enough for her — but would also be a gift to me to realize I was fine just the way I was despite childhood trauma.
It is also a gift now as we go through this time of great change and chaos in our world. From the beginning of this, I’ve said to friends and family how I believe Gidget was preparing for me these times. Her teachings have carried me often when I’ve felt confused, angry, or sad.
I am fine just the way I am on the choices I make that I feel are right for me. Never did I know the impact of Gidget’s sharing this one profound thought that it would be the gift I continue to lean into.
She has helped me to trust my intuition and continue to deepen in it. At times when I doubt, she has this canny way of just popping into my consciousness to remind me to follow my heart.
At times when I miss her physical presence, I picture her in my mind’s eye and how she loved to lay on her back and have her belly rubbed. I love this shirt in the photo she is wearing, “Simply Dog.” That she was, and may I add, she was Simply Buddha Dog too…and I continue to be grateful for all the magic and teachings she brought into my life that continue to be my guide.
Love you always my sweet girl.
