Denise’s Daring Daydreams for 09/10/2025

Our Affirmation this Sunday is, “I move in harmony with this present moment always knowing the truth of my being.” This thought comes from Lao-tzu and the Tao Te Ching. The Tao is the unknowable, un-seeable realm where everything originates; while at the very same time, the Tao is invisibly within everyone and everything. Can you see, hear and feel the similarities with our Unity concept of God?

In Unity we speak quite frequently about “being” in the Flow. I know over the years, I have had numerous persons ask questions about what that statement really means. I thought I understood it fairly well 20 years ago, and what I can tell you in this moment, I know much more about it today — AND – I am still learning how to maneuver through the flow of this substance we call Living Loving Spirit.

During the months of August and September we have focused as a Spiritual Community on what true Abundance really is. If I had to place a definition on Abundance my words in this moment would be “True Abundance is living in the flow of life with Awareness”. With that said, I think the confusion begins to lie in the fact that we want to say God is Good – which is true. We also want to say that Living in the Flow is good – which it is. AND, (There’s another one of those things! I use And instead of But. It helps me reframe the situation.) Sometimes the flow leads us through places that at first glance don’t appear to be “good.”

The Hidden Messages in Water by Masaru Emoto explains that we are water, and water wants to be free to flow. He also explained that be vibrating or being love, we can literally change the crystallization process of the water crystals. The implications of Emoto’s work were stupendous. Since consciousness is within and around us and we are water, then if we are out of balance with our personal intentions or who we have come here to be — Isn’t it within the realm of possibility that our misguided vibrations can and will impact the entire planet in destructive ways?

When I think of Living in the Flow of Life with Awareness, the whole process becomes timelier to the events that are transpiring on our planet. During this day I encourage you to be Mindful. Drink water silently today. Notice how it nourishes you. Notice the places water is there for you, serving you and flowing naturally and freely. Say a prayer of gratitude for your noticing and for allowing yourself to be aware of the flow.
