LOSING CONTROL

Beloved,

This has been a week of surprises, perhaps proof of letting go of control.  That is a hard one for me as I have been alone for 28 years so being in control is entrenched in my daily life. Not that I do not have assistance from family or friends but on a daily basis, all decisions are up to me.

In just one day, I received a call from the leader of a motor coach trip to The Sight and Sound Theatre in Pennsylvania which is presenting “Jesus” , a production which has taken three years in the making and involving about 650 individuals in all phases of its completion. It is a very memorable and moving play which reaches into your heart.  It also includes a deluxe motor coach tour of Lancaster, the Amish Country and Philadelphia. I have known about it for 3 months and have been trying to find a roommate to go with me.  No luck so I finally released all expectation and then I received a call from the leader offering me to share a room with her and her husband.  Mind you, I have never met her but it blew my mind that she and her hubby would do this for me.  I accepted gratefully and am eagerly awaiting to see the play that I have been told is FANTASTIC, even grown men are crying during this play.  I am sure that Jesus’ Love will be on full display.

Then, the same day, I received a call from a beloved  friend in Maine about our get together.  I was invited to take a trip to stay with him and his young son some time ago but we have had things happen that kept us from that happening.  We now have definite plans and I am eager to see them again. I have wanted to get to the ocean so they are going to take me which will make it all the more special.  Since I do not have a smart phone or skype, I am sure that young man has grown a lot since I saw him last.  Another wonderful surprise.

My deck is not easy to look at with all the peeling of the paint and the dirt that has accumulated.  I thought I had solved the problem with a recommendation of a person who would paint it.  After speaking to him and his visit to my home to see if he could do it, I waited and waited for a call, none came. Another friend recommended a person who suggested Trek for a new deck and I spent a lot of time deciding the material, the color, etc. and the last I heard from him was a month ago so I assumed he was no longer interested in doing my job.  Then another friend has me check out her deck that was painted two years ago with Deck Correct and it still had not peeled even in one spot.  So, I called the person who did it and he came and inspected my deck and was going to call me with a price. Evidently, the telephone Genie was hard at work again and I did not hear from him.  I did try to call him and his mail box was full??? After thinking that perhaps he did not want the job either, I called him again the next morning and left him a message that I was concerned for him as his mail box had been full.  He was not aware that I had not received his message with a price and assumed I had hired someone else??? With all of our means of communicating, why do we have so much trouble communicating easily???? We finally got to talk on the phone and he is coming next week to power wash, scrape, sand and paint.  And….I get to keep my deck purple( Trek was not available in purple) as the man at the paint store is a genius and concocted a paint formula that gave me the Deck Correct in purple to match my shutters.

I was taking my grandson out to breakfast yesterday to celebrate his tenacity in going to court to get money owed him from the government.  He did not have a car so this enabled him to buy an old but beautiful Lincoln Town Car.  He gave me a ride in it and it was like going back so many years.  It is a big “boat” and is soooo comfortable.  It is like we used to have many years ago where the seats were large and you couldn’t even feel the bumps. The trunk is big enough to carry me.   I was going to use my GPS to get the best directions to the restaurant when he pulled out his smart phone for the information ( I keep forgetting that today, all info is in the phone whereas I have different items like a solitary GPS.  His phone kept saying the restaurant was in a different town then what I said.  So he called the restaurant and, sure enough. It had moved.  If I had not given up control and let him use HIS GPS (phone), we would have gone to the wrong place.  Boy, this has been a week of wonderful surprises and proof that I do not have to be in control.

This message from the angels and Ann Albers hits the spot for me, does it for you?  This week certainly gave me the proof that I needed.

EXCITING NEWS

Beloved,

The ancient Kahuna prayer below stopped me in my tracks. Nick Polizzi, Founder of The Sacred Science, sent this out in his newsletter and it made me stop and become more cognizant of how I seek wisdom outside of myself.

These words are particularly potent right NOW – in an era where it has become so easy to get distracted by our phones, computers and TVs. Our senses are overloaded with constant information – from text message threads to scary headlines on social media to the droning voices of news pundits…

The following prayer gives us easy instructions on how to sift through all the chatter, letting in only that which illuminates our path to deeper wisdom and purpose.

I hope this gift from the ancients of Hawaii lights you up as it did for me!

Take all that I say,
And toss away
Without a thought
All that does not
Strike within You
A Recognition.
For You do not learn
Wisdom and Love
You only encounter
Catalysts to remember it.
For it is all
Within Yourself.

I hope this gift from the ancients of Hawaii lights you up as it did for me!

Another heatwave has arrived and I am so grateful that I can choose between two machines, air conditioner and dehumidifier, to make my body much happier and mind and heart less foggy. Swimming in the lake is another alternative which I think I will do right after I write to you.

Have you tried this app?  It sounds like fun but also so much easier.  When I was trying to catch the critter that was throwing my bird feeders on the ground, thus breaking them, it would have been great to borrow one instead of having to go out and buy one.  Think of how much more space you would have in your garage, cellar and attic.

I will be going to a town meeting to understand how more land is needed to make a solar power farm.  I am not very knowledgeable about solar power but I am bringing copies of this opportunity to show the committee and others how in the very near future we will  not need to cut down our trees or get the neighbors upset but putting this so close to them. See what you think.  Do you know what your town or city is doing about this?  You could probably give them  some new information  that they are not aware of.

You never know when a virtuoso will show up in your life?  This made me stop and listen.

I think we are going to be seeing more goats on our planet in the near future.  What do you think?

Tears are in my eyes each time they tell us of a child that drowned.  My heart goes out to everyone connected to such a tragedy.  Look at this if you want to have  hope  that there will no longer be a threat of this kind to our children.

I just had to send this one to you as the angels have such advice for us.

TIMES ARE A-CHANGING

to me

Beloved,

I hope you are surviving these heat waves in comfort and peace.  Finally, my transition into having air conditioning is almost at an end.  Just the finishing touches in my learning just how to get the most comfortable air in my home is taking root.  My son Steve has been to stores to buy items and then back to my home many times.to Mickey Mouse the air conditioner to work for my greatest comfort.  Since the air conditioner hose from the window to the unit itself was too short to allow the coolness to reach the hallway so it would disperse to the whole house, he adapted.  That is one of his greatest gifts but one which causes a lot of frustration also, especially since I live in a very small town and the closest Home Depot is about an hour away.

He spliced the air conditioner hose and inserted tubing into both ends which allows the unit to almost reach the door to the hallway.  Then he got a 16” pedestal fan that could change the direction of the flow to either end of the hallway to reach the other rooms.  I was planning on going to the store and get a 30” fan which by I located by phone calls.  This has been such an unusual season that there are no air conditioners left to buy and hardly any fans either, thus I let my fingers do the walking. My ignorance of all knowledge concerning what we were attempting to do did not help very much.  Steve called me about an hour before I was setting out on my jaunt to find fans and mentioned that he had found a 16” fan which is just what I needed.  Can you imagine if I had bought the 30”, it would have taken up my entire hallway with no place left for me to walk?  I have to laugh at this adventure.  Buying what you think you need and then having to return it because you needed something else instead. And…it is not a quick and easy jaunt to the store.

I love seeing my son and enjoy his company. He has come 4 times a week for the past three weeks and I am feeling like such an imposition on his time. Here is another opportunity for me to accept help with grace and gratitude. Life gives me many laughs.  We are born helpless and accept and take help for granted.  Then we get to our teens and are doggedly determined to get independent.  For 40 years we learn to take care of ourselves and our families.  Then we reach an age where there are so many things that we did that are impossible for us to do anymore.  So then we return to our infant stages. It feels like we have to give up all that we worked so hard for. Why did we work so hard?  I think I know….to finally relax and accept our humanness and be able to admit what we don’t know

My ignorance took up much of his time as he struggled to explain how to operate an air conditioner.  I would never have guessed that it would challenge me so much but since the humidity here was 80 and not 60-65 like the news said, I had to learn to alternate between the air conditioner when the temperature was hot and use the dehumidifier when it was cool in my home. I walked around with sweaters on for a week or two until I realized that I was setting it at lower and lower temperatures so it would run and  get rid of the humidity when it would have been good to switch to my other lifesaving machine, the dehumidifier.

The sun and the planet are in a great transition right now and we humans are being affected. What affects our planet, affects us. I am not into astrology or any of the other means of predicting what is happening but thankfully, there are other humans who can give us a heads up.

I wish I had gotten this sooner but this vote affects each of us.  You can still put your two cents in anyway so our government will know what we think about this subject.

Grandma stories appeal to me especially since I am one.  This is comical as well as inspiring.
