Stigmata: points on the palms that bleed spontaneously … symbols of the pain Christ suffered on the cross. You suffer as well for the ignorance of others to the truth of who they are: children of God, created in the image of the Creator. You bleed as well, but your blood flows as tears from the eyes—escape points for the pain you feel inside. It is the human who bleeds and cries. It is the Christ inside each human that knows the truth and is at peace.

These rare so-called miraculous events of the stigmata are wake-up calls—reminders that there is a reality far greater than this physical life and that you are here for a reason. It is the more common occurrence of the tears that alert you to disharmony. The disharmony arises from your perception of external events. Always can you return inside and find peace. Once found, dry your tears and externalize that which you found within to heal your own perceptions and those of those around you.
