CALLING ALL HUMANS

Posted on by

Beloved,

Whew, what a week and today might be the hottest day of the whole summer. Our country is in turmoil with all of the tragedies happening. Of course, I do not have to tell you that, there is no way any person alive would not know what is happening. I would like to share with you what I see happening the most through all of this. People are coming together in solidarity and especially love. There is so much love being generated and flowing to all humans on this planet. What do you choose to see? Love or hate? You do have the choice and by choosing LOVE you are not denying the reality of what is causing it. Humanity is waking up and the veils are being pulled off your eyes. I see the loss and the deep sadness being experienced yet I also see the love these people are receiving from the purity of the hearts around them and even across this planet. Unfortunately, media is always repeating the negative side of any event over and over again. I wish they would repeat the stories and views of all the love that is being given. It would change the fear that is being generated. Choose to focus on the positive, the awareness that is being created and the love that is flowing so freely.

Check out this photo and know that each of us can do something to show what we stand for. Not black or white but black and white, in fact, all colors. Be a rainbow..

I am always surprised when I see race bias because personally I do not feel it and cannot see it. I have always judged people for who they are and not for what color or race they are. I take no personal credit for that because it is what I always did without knowing the difference. I learned a valuable insight into discrimination when I was going to college and that was at the age of 50. Can you imagine going to college at 50 years of age and being with all the young ones? Boy, did I feel out of place and very ignorant about how to go about doing all of this. One of my classmates was a Trinidadian woman my age from New York. Her skin was black but I did not notice this as different. I was too busy feeling so out of place and soooo old.

This was an unusual offering by the Springfield College of a weekend college where once a month you went to college for two full days. Audra was staying at the YMCA while she was here at college. I had a lot of room so I offered her to stay at my home while she was at school. We became good friends and still are today. I had never had a black friend but never considered that it was unusual. Anyway, one day we were talking about racial bias and she insisted that it was still in place even if it was 1990. As much as I wanted to believe her, I just could not wrap my mind around it. After all, this was not the early 1900’s, this was 1991 when they had they finally had the right to vote and there were able to use all toilets and did not have to sit at the back of the bus or enter buildings from the back door. They were free and I just could not see any discrimination. She challenged me to go to a restaurant with her and told me to pick anyone I wanted.

I chose this restaurant and we went in. We were seated at the back of the restaurant where it was darker????? As were sitting there, no waitress came with a glass of water (that was when you automatically got a glass of water). After 15 minutes, a waitress appeared with a menu but still no water. 30 minutes later, she came back to take our order but practically ignored my friend and spent her time talking to me. Do you know, I do not know whether we stayed to eat or not but I remember wanting to leave that restaurant so bad. My dear friend had been treated like she did not exist and I did not want to stand for that. I was insulted for her but she insisted that was the way blacks are treated at white restaurants. Did you know there are black or white restaurants in the US? By the way, we both got our Bachelor’s degree at age 52 yet she went further in her schooling and now has a doctorate.

What an eye opener that was. I still shake my head that those things existed and I was totally unaware of it. I guess we do not feel discrimination unless it is directed at us specifically. I always felt that it was an individual that was rude, never attributing it to a race or color. I am considered lower middle class and yet I did not feel discrimation. That is why I understand why white people do not understand just how biased we really are. It does not happen to us. In fact, I went to Trinidad with my friend for Mardi Gras and the Trinidadians were so friendly towards me. It is time that all humans wake up to the fact that we are one species on one planet and we are all individuals with many different personalities not attributable to race. WE are just human and each very unique.

This is a song that we can sing to one another, to all of humanity. Be patient, it is slow at beginning but there is a beautiful song coming. Sing it to yourself and the world.

This is a call to all of humanity. BE HUMAN

JOY OF FULL MOON AND SUMMER SOLSTICE

Posted on by

Beloved,

We have a lot of special days that are reeking with wonderful energy and possibilities. There is the Solstice Full Moon which precedes the Solstice and the first day of summer. Hoorah. The flowers are everywhere and their fragrance is in the air. The sun sets later and we are having fantastic sunsets, Mother Nature is still the best artist there is and my heart fills with the beauty and the variety that she presents to us. It is this time of the year that I make myself sit and just bask in the ever changing forms and colors that make up the sunset. Actually, the beauty comes more after the sun is set as that is when the colors start and the clouds in all their diversity are framed in ways that no human could conceive.

Yesterday, I returned six unopened jars of grape jelly to the store with a vengeance set in frustration. There is no point in filling up the Baltimore Oriole feeders as the squirrels are emptying them faster than the birds. The Orioles are nesting now so I only see them occasionally. After trying every solution to deter the squirrels, I finally conceded surrender. I have not had this problem before but there are 3 baby squirrels who are fearless and no matter how many times they land on the ground they keep coming back. I did not mind going out three times a day to fill them for the first three weeks the Orioles were here as they are the reason I do this anyway. It was so much fun to watch them. Now there is not as much reason to look as often out the window yet the hummingbirds are still here and the golden finches as well as the other birds that eat regular bird food: they stay at the feeders longer so I get to see them more. I am blessed not to be affected by the predrought conditions, in fact, it is much better for me and for my lawn. Being right next to the lake, there is always plenty of moisture for my lawn and most springs, my lawn is difficult to mow because of the wetness. I am very grateful that there are no alligators in my lake.

Let’s take the time to celebrate what we all do share with others on the planet…our humanity. In this nice weather our hopes arise as we look forward to vacations and family gatherings. This is the time.

My heart goes out to the family of that child that was attacked by the alligator. It is not the parents’ fault and they should not be judged. I heard a lot of people say that the parents should have known better because there are alligators in every pond or water in Florida. I know that vacationers or most people who do not live in Florida are not aware that you never go near water in that state because there is likely to be an alligator in it. How could you not feel safe in Disney World? It is for the child in every person who goes there. Let’s not place blame on the family but balm for their sorrows.

Can we take a moment to send loving energy to ALL humanity that has suffered abuse on this planet? ………..

Every one of us can do something for the downtrodden as is evidenced in this video. Can you feel humanity coming together to help one another? I can, I feel it in my heart and there is so much more evidence and so many stories that confirm that it is a huge growing trend. We humans are finally waking up and reaching out to others. After all, we are one species on one planet. Doesn’t that make us a family of sorts? Family members stick together and when one is showing signs of dealing with emotions that overwhelm them, we all do what we can to ease the pain even when they do not appear lovable.

I tend to focus on stories that wake up my heart with joy. I prefer these to the sometime negative thoughts that run in my mind. If I am in joy then that is what I can share with the world. Here’s a good one.

Here is someone finally speaking up about something that no one talks about. Why do we feel ashamed to mention information about something that no one wants to face. Here is a good solution and I thank the person who had the courage to write about it.

OBJECTS OF LOVE

Posted on by

Beloved,

After two days of rain, the sun is shining this morning and it just invigorates me. It is hard to believe that we are in December but I am NOT complaining and I will take the rain instead of the snow. My hooded merganser ducks came back and brought company with them. They were feeding right in front of my beach so I got to enjoy the shenanigans of their diving and eating. Even Oscar, the sea gull, was hanging around them hoping to get a free meal. I looked out yesterday and there had to be at least 75 Canadian geese all lined up in the water. I know they have been practicing their flight patterns in the water but I have not seen them in the air yet.

I know there is a lot of sadness in the world these days. I don’t like it either yet I know that the love sent to the victims and their families is surrounding this planet. Pay attention to how much compassion and assistance is being spread to all of humanity. Many light bulbs are going off signaling that there is a better way, we no longer want ANY violence on our planet. There are many souls who are doing their best to bring peace and closure to all of the sorrow and devastating anger that is being expressed right now. Will you be one of those? You don’t have to go overseas and even travel to have a great effect on these times. Whatever emotion, feeling or energy you are carrying in your mind and heart, is what is being expressed. Feel love for yourself first and it will express halfway around the world. Think thoughts that uplift you and you will uplift all of humanity. Remember we are all ONE so what we feel and think is felt by all of humanity. The perpetrators are feeling so much hatred right now, they are threatened by the love that is being expressed. It hurts them too much to feel love right now as they are so angry about not being loved and accepted by all. It does not look like they are in pain, but they are. Loving them for who they are, human, is the only salve that we can put on their open wounds that they are so expressing right now. We do not have to love what they do, just love a fellow brother or sister who is in so much pain that they can only lash out to express it. Believe it or not, they are the catalyst that is awakening humanity to be a better human.

This article is a very good perspective from Meredith Murphy and Archangel Michael on why all these attacks are happening. Know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it is NOT a train.

I used to work right next to Monsanto and the smoke and chemicals being spewed in the atmosphere was quite palatable. You could not mistake it. The real enemy to us and our planet are the corporations who are destroying our planet, our livelihood, our bodies for greed. This sounds very hopeful that we can again regain the beauty and sustainability of our beloved planet.
