Faith or Fear - Which do you choose?

By Meghan McDonough -


 This image of a woman, clinging to her ribs as she tries to connect to the infinite energy of her heart. The ribs form a cage around her. She is attached to the ribs, clinging on. What keeps her clinging to the finite, when the infinite cosmos surrounds her? 

In my opinion, there is one choice in life. One choice we come up against daily, momentarily. Faith or Fear. 

Faith=Trust in the unknown, present 

Fear=worry, anger, judgement, doubt, attachment, past/ future

I believe our capacity for love is infinite. Our souls are infinite. Our souls are all connected and on a journey of growth, evolvement and exploration of that one choice: fear or faith. 

How and where can you choose faith over fear today? Where can you choose laughter over mistrust? Where can you choose joy over worry or doubt? Where can you choose growth over attachment? 


Remember to laugh, YOU are always on YOUR PATH ❤️

Break the Mold

By Meghan McDonough -

I haven’t broken many limbs in my life, but when I had a fracture as a kid I still have visceral memories it. Memories of how the cast smelled, looked, felt, itched.  How weak my arm looked after and how much my arm reeked of dead skin once it was taken off.  The cast guided my bones to realign. My arm was left weak from its training. When it’s support was no longer needed, it was taken off. My arm needed to explore itself again and regain strength. In my mind, our souls are like my arm in that cast. Where and how we are placed on this earth is the mold.  The mold trains us to align with certain messages and experiences - lessons for our souls to learn before we are able to break free from the cast and explore how to move through this life without it.  There comes a time in everyone’s life where you can choose to stay in the mold, or break free and explore what’s on the other side.  If you allow it, the light of your soul can shine through and break the mold you were born with, reveali

Growth, Resilience and Embracing Your Journey

By Meghan McDonough -

The image coming forward this week is from the Magnetize Your Light Coloring Book and the title is, You Are So Strong. This week the idea, well there are several ideas, and the ideas are that one somehow once we get good at some thing we can change it or it no longer is a problem. For instance, when are you gonna stop doubting yourself. Maybe there's a time in life that you get so good at some thing that you stop doubting, or maybe you get so good at some thing and you do something for so long that it's no longer hard for you, or that as life continues at some point it gets easier. But that's not the case, it's an allusion I believe we tell ourselves. Because this world, this lifetime, is all about growth, at least in my perspective. When I change my perspective to that, that this life is not something to be conquered, but to be experienced, it shifts my ability to try and hold onto something, or to control something, or change something that can't be changed.  Beca

“Big Faith”

By Meghan McDonough -

"Big Faith" This image came out of a reading has been haunting me in the best way since.  A young woman stands on her path, blinded and stuck by the fog that lies ahead of her. The fog is blocking her from seeing her journey. Scared, filled with doubt she remains still. Stuck. Her guide encourages her to keep going. But all she sees is the fog.  Once she clears past the fog, her journey continues. She is challenged on her path, met by an icy river that she must cross by balancing on mini icebergs. Now she can see the beauty of the solid ground that lies ahead. Her faith and focus become one. There is sunshine, life, love, freedom, beauty on the other side of the fog (her fear). What is required of her is to have "Big Faith" (my new favorite term that a good friend and beautiful soul, Kristin McCurry, introduced to me.) Not just faith, but BIG FAITH and the courage to walk the path ahead.  I read a quote by Oprah years ago. "You find your path by walking it"
