Building Hope by Teri Leigh Teed It is the first day of the New Year, 2026, and we are filled with feelings of new beginnings, filled with hope. Immersed in these beautiful surroundings, wrapped in the loving embrace of the Nantahala Forest and the Blue Ridge Mountains, brings serenity to me. Everything has a frequency and I choose to be around those energies that are uplifting. The featured image for this post shows what appears to be a long nail near the bottom of the photograph. This image shaped the name of this photograph, Building Hope. And the topic for this post. That name feels like a very needed message for our world today.  And that is the >>

This message is for Christmas Eve. Our world feels crazy and sad for many, probably not.much different than a.little over 2,000 years ago. And yet, we are in different times.  A lot has changed just in the past several years.  There is a mass awakening of souls on our Mother Earth. And there are solutions to our problems that we, the awakening souls, are creating for the good of all.  It is a Prescription for Peace. This is the time of prophesy. And our souls chose to be here to witness these great changes, and to experience the releasing, the purging, and the healing of our thoughts and emotions. And the healing of our ancestors. As the night >>

Welcome The Spirit of Thanksgiving A Poem by Teri Leigh Teed   Welcome the Spirit of Thanksgiving Let the time of rejoicing begin. With food in abundance and sharing Of our harvest, with friends and our kin.   May our hearts always be open to sharing, our blessings with love and caring, And allowing the Grace of God  To flow forth from within never ending.   Welcome the Spirit of Thanksgiving, And the memories of good food and joy, While we create new times of abundance And bring forth the Light of Divine Love.   May we always remember the gifts  We are given by God to help  Our world remain peaceful and prosperous And filled with abundance >>

With all the changes occurring in our world, today’s weather is a big blessing. Every day gives us the opportunity to be grateful. It is a state of mind that we can choose, and cultivate. Persistent work on ourself is key, along with wisdom and guidance. Everyone is different, as we all have different paths we take in life. Our challenges are different, so the choice of kindness and compassion is an important part. And kindness begins with ourself. Each day we wake up we have the opportunity to choose who we want to be.

I love this photograph.  The colors are so rich in this season’s palette. The golden yellows, reds and brown leaves juxtaposed against the clear, blue skies. And remember, all of these Eleanor’s Dream series photographs are created at night, paintings of Light in the darkness. Miracles of symbols and colors, attuning all who have eyes to see with the frequency of Divine Love. The Spirit of Appalachia is alive and well. And she speaks through my camera lens. Hurricane Helene charged through these oldest mountains in the world just over a year ago, created chaos, and left a trail of destruction. Helene was no match for the Spirit of this place, though. As many survivors are still being >>
