Beloved,
This day did not start out too well but it all came clean in
the wash. When I tried to access my emails, Firefox could
not connect to server. Thank Goodness I have learned to look
at the router to see what it is doing. I used to waste so much time
trying to figure out why I could not connect to the web. Four of
the five lights were on and some flashing but the one going to the
internet was out. Soooo. I shut down the router, waiting a
few minutes and tried again. Again, no internet so I called
Verizon.
Looking at my bill, I was trying to figure out what number to
call but nothing for repair so I called the regular number. If you
have ever done this you know how much time is wasted, not
their time but yours. I finally got to a “human voice” so I could
explain what was happening. You know when you are out of
the United States because the people are so polite. Her name
was Mariel and she was from the Phillipines. I usually ask to
be transferred to the US because it is the law that they have
to accommodate this request but since it had taken me so
long just to hear a human voice, I did not want to take the
chance of being disconnected and having to start all over again.
At least, I could understand her English but the volume was
quite low so I struggled with that although she continually
tried to raise the volume. She said there were no outages
so she proceeded to spend 20 minutes to try get me connected
without much luck. Guess what, there was an outage locally.
It’s too bad Verizon does not have a system we could call to
find that out. And…their counterparts in other countries should
be made aware of their outages too.
I don’t like the fact that other countries are taking care of us when
we are perfectly capable of doing it, but I do not blame the person
trying to help me out. I told her that Ariel is a powerful Archangel
and she carries his name in her name so she has a great protector.
She was pleased to find that out.
While I was waiting for the internet connection to be fixed,
I turned on the TV to have my breakfast. Let us take a moment
to send some loving positive energy to all involved in the
tragedy in Colorado. which happened at the Batman premier.
no family anywhere in this world is free from mental challenges
in their midst. Let’s not place blame on anyone. You know
that the young 24 year old man must have mental challenges
in order to commit this atrocity. I am sure now that the
media will find blame in our mental care system but how can
any agency know which of their billion clients will go over
the edge
I have a grandson with the same name as the shooter, James Holmes.
He came from a broken home and was in the foster care system. He
experienced events that would make your hair curl. Although some
decisions were made by foster care that I did not like, they had
his best interest at heart. After many years, he is now balanced
and having a better life. I immediately called my son to see if it
was possible that it was our James, but it was not. Thank God.
See how my concerns this day have been put to rest.
Until there is peace in the world and every human feels safe, there
will be mental challenges. Look at our own soldiers and the Post
Traumatic Stress they are suffering from because of all of the
atrocities they see and what they have to do to keep this country
safe. As long as there is extreme poverty, our children will
also suffer from mental challenges as they are being raised by
parents who are dysfunctional. It carries down through the
generations.
Grace abounds in all situations, all we need to do is to ask
for it and miraculously it appears. This is a perfect opportunity
to become aware of the important job we are doing as lightworkers.
Let us bring light to this planet, the whole planet, and it only takes
one candle (you) to light up a room. Remember it takes only
a crack in a human’s heart to allow the light to shine in and that
crack will happen when they feel and experience love. It can
happen anywhere, in the supermarket, at the gas station, at the
Post Office, etc. The easiest way to transmit love is with our
smile, it says it all. How many people do you see every day
that you could smile at and help smiling go viral.
Yesterday was a wonderful day, full of happy surprises for
me. The heat wave has been broken, I went in my kayak
early in the morning which is a great treat for me. I went
swimming in the lake in the afternoon and then went to
a concert held in a neighboring town on the town common.
On the way home, guess what I found. A restaurant that
was advertising Gluten Free Menu on its billboard. I could
not pass that up. I was not hungry but stopped to check
out their menu and boy was I in for a treat. The young
24 year old chef has Celiac so is very familiar with how
to cook gluten free.
I was in heaven just looking at the menu. Do you know
how long it has been since I have had Fish and Chips?
or Fried Mozzarella, or Clam Chowder or Baked Ziti,
or Pizza? There is even more than that to choose from
like pancakes for breakfast, YUMMM
For those of you in the area, the name is Villa Nova on
5 Brimfield Road, Holland Ma 01521 413-245-9090
AND they even have delivery.
They have regular food and specials every day. Their
prices are great and all the vegetables are fresh from
the father’s garden every day. Can you imagine? Food
like your mom used to make, no processed food here,
it is all freshly made. Sunday is the only day they have
breakfast so I am planning on taking myself out for
a breakfast of gluten free pancakes this week.
My connection to the internet is back so I am now writing
this to you and then need to get busy preparing for hosting
my TV Show in 4 hours. Things always seem to go wrong
at the worst possible time like today as my Fridays are so
busy that I do not schedule anything extra. But….see how it
all worked out and I did not get too bummed out. I just
went to the Higher Power, prayed for everyone involved
in all of this and then let it go. Letting go is the hardest part
but if I trust in a power greater than me, then what am I so
concerned about?
The title of this song is: “ONLY YOU” and feels so
appropriate for the subjects I have been writing about.
I have faith in you and humanity and also humor which
brings our hearts to smiling. Let’s get it to go viral.
SMILE AS YOU ENJOY THE SONG, THE ANTICS
AND ESPECIALLY THE ENDING
