This past June I came across a wonderful blog that I just couldn’t stop reading. I started to write about it then, but for some reason I got stuck. I said that I was going to write about her blog and then I never finished it. I don’t know why and I’m so sorry for that because now the blog is gone. But not is all lost because there is another blog.
When I first found “The 13 Graces” blog, the title itself immediately caught my attention because of the number 13 and because of the word, “Graces”, which means a lot to me personally and spiritually. There was a blog post that she wrote that captured my attention but now I don’t remember what it was about.
My belief is strong enough now to say with my whole heart, that we are all connected. We are all connected spiritually. With each synchronicity that connects me with another person, my belief grows stronger and it pleases me so much to have these spiritually driven experiences. It helps me to feel like I really am part of the whole. And if everyone would embrace this Oneness with his or her heart and soul, then there would be more peace in this world.
I found Grace's blog yesterday, November 20th, the same day that she wrote about the pomegranate being a symbol of New Beginnings: birth/death/rebirth, just as butterflies are. She also posted a painting of ”Venus Verticordia”, by Dante Gabriel Rossetti (below). Beautiful, isn’t she? And from what little I know about Grace, so is she.
I feel like I’ve been given a special gift when I find an inspirational blogger who is open and honest and allows him/herself to be vulnerable. It helps me to not only feel connected to that person, but also to gain the courage to do the same. For me it may take awhile, and sometimes I seem to retreat back into myself, but I think a little more comes out of me with each new connection.
If you want to have your soul to be touched by another beautiful soul, gently, and with grace, I encourage you to read The Wild Pomegranate. (I’m sorry it took so long…again.)
I found this painting that I had originally had another link from another web site. I didn't want to infringe on Linda Herzog's copyright and am glad I found this so that I can display the painting without doing that.

Hello, Diane!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
I'm not sure if you know this, but I always respond to my commentors inside their own comments! :) Blogger is a bit different with tracking comments, so I didn't want you to think I hadn't answered you.
Girl, we are SO on the same page! This entire year has been (and continues to be) FILLED with 22, 222, 44 and 444.
It's so cool to find someone experiencing these same things!
Hi Grace,
Thank you! It was a nice birthday and quiet. Peaceful. Just the way I like my life.:)
I was wondering how you do that with your comments. I wish blogger would do that. It's cool to see your response right under the comment.
Wow. I wasn't expecting you to tell me that you were seeing these numbers, too!
It sure is cool. This is one reason I write about it. I love to know who else is experiencing the same synchronicities at the same time. It's a lot of fun when it happens with me and my daughter.:)
Thank you so much for coming here and commenting. Enjoy your evening.:)
