APPRECIATING THE UNEXPECTED

Posted on by

Beloved,

What a surprise Mother Nature had in store for me.  I have had the hummingbird feeders out for over a week and a half.  Guess who showed up for food first.  The Baltimore Oriole.  The hummingbirds “always” come first and then some time later the Oriole.  I needed to put the Oriole’s feeders together and then put some grape jelly in them as I had not been prepared for their arrival.  I chuckle as I remember that he came right to my kitchen window and let me know he was here.  He then tried to get the sugar water out of the hummingbird feeders but his beak is too big for the holes.  This was in the morning.

In the later afternoon, all of a sudden a hummingbird showed up for the beginning of their annual visit.  What a surprise to get them both on the exact same day.  I wonder if they flew in together.  Now there is more color as I look out my windows as I have both feeders in the front and the back of my home..  The Baltimore Oriole’s feeders are orange and the hummingbird feeders are red and combined with the green leaves coming out, it is a luscious spectacle. It lifts my heart to look outside now even if it is mostly grey and rainy.

Do you or anyone you know have a veil that keeps you safe and protected from what is really in front of you?  Jennifer Hoffman gives an explanation in such a simple way that all of us can  recognize  the size and density of our veil.

Kryon has a very important message and I believe it is true.  Sneak a peek from under the veil and see what is waiting for you on the other side. We, the humans, have done what we came to Earth to do yet we have forgotten that we did.  All the Armageddon predictions of the past have not materialized and they will not.  After all, there are no new predictions and the old ones have not been allowed to be. Pat yourself on the back for a job well done. Take this  message  to heart and have hope which is already manifesting on your planet.

Do you remember that button from Staples?  Well, push the easy button from Brenda Hoffman is just such a reminder that the button exists. Why oh why do we humans make life so hard on ourselves?  My thought about the answer is that making everything hard for ourselves and everyone else is an ingrained habit. It will take being conscious of our habit and breaking it by just taking a slow breath in. Just that  simple  practice of inhaling the life giving oxygen is enough to slowly chip away at the habit.

This is how we feel when we are allowed to come back home. Who is holding you back?  Is it YOU?  A real life example of making the best of what life offers and still reaching the one  goal  that was so important.

What an unlikely pair?  Yet, love is flowing between the two who are not at all alike.  In fact, they are even different species.  This warms my heart as it is such a beacon of what is possible between living creatures who share this beloved planet Earth.  All of us humans are one species on one planet, let’s get over ourselves and embrace all forms of life.  I “know” this is what is possible and is actually  happening  right now.

I think I will print this out so it can remind me to take a breath when I get uptight.

AWARENESS

Posted on by

Beloved,

You know I love kayaking and in all the seasons that I am able to.  Yet my favorite time to kayak is in early spring, like right now.  Most of the boats are not out yet, most docks are not in the water and the barriers that create the swimming spaces are not there either, so I have clear access to the whole of the lake.  The water lilies and the weeds and plants are not yet fully grown out of the water so I can get so much closer to the water’s edge.  Of course, the leaves are not out yet either so my view of the homes that hide behind the trees are a lot more visible.  I enjoy seeing the changes and improvements that have been made.  This view also gives me new ideas I might contemplate using.

I am chuckling because it takes me a lot longer to go around the whole lake too, as I have much more to look at. I even saw a head swimming above the water but could not tell if it was a beaver or another aquatic creature.  It was going opposite from me so I had probably disturbed its space. The Canadian Geese are not skittish yet and just kept chomping on someone’s lawn and ignoring me with not so much as a honk.

With a clear sky which is allows the water to be so reflective of anything on shore, it gives me a totally different perspective as I silently glide through the reflections of the trees, yards and homes. As above so below.  I can get into a deep meditation as I allow myself to ponder the beauty of this unusual scenery and the other worldly feelings that arise. I love gliding through the clouds that are reflected in the water and that scenario occurs much more often than having a totally clear sky.  When I am out there in nature, I find it difficult to come back in to shore.  I don’t go kayaking when it is breezy or windy so the times I can go out are all the more precious to me. I am ever so grateful for the opportunities that Mother Nature gives to all of us to enjoy her bounty in whatever way she manifests it.

Do you remember I mentioned that my computer had received a virus and I was locked out of it?  I have a very dear friend who came to my rescue.  His name is Barry Costa from Maine, formerly from Connecticut. He is not only good at creating websites; hence he is proficient at computer language. He also can make the computer sing and be the blank canvas for his artistry.  The art he creates on the computer is magical and certainly inspirational.  Soul Star is my favorite. Check these out.

Barry Costa is also a healer using Matrix Energetics which is something unlike anything else available in today’s healing arts. He has done several sessions for me and I can honestly say I experienced something I had never felt before.  It is so easy, simple and effective on your part. Have you heard of Matrix Energetics?  Check him out.

One good deed deserves another.  Sooo cute, it will make you smile.

I am glad my beaver does not do this, but this beaver was not aware of doing it either.  Have you ever felt that you are in a herd that is following a leader that doesn’t know where he is going?

A friend of mine told me that a robin is a symbol of Christ and of course, Easter.  I had never heard that before, so she sent me this link that explains it. When I become aware of something new, I like to share it with you.

This next link certainly gives us a perfect  example  of this truth.

THE JOYS OF SPRINGTIME

Posted on by

Beloved,

 First, I would like to acknowledge my mood these past few weeks.  The present energy wave is having its way with me.  I am now saying: “I thought I had released this a long time ago, why did it come back to haunt me?”  Well, I conquered my fear of the microphone, of speaking in public and big crowds.  I guess it is now time for me to conquer my fear of confrontation.  I was confronted with a Kangaroo court atmosphere when I appeared all by myself with my letter and the signatures of the 33 people who signed it. When I am confronted by an angry person, my little girl runs and hides in the closet all curled up. I have been given the opportunity to face this squarely and not run into the closet.  There will be another meeting in two weeks and hopefully we will get the answers to our questions. It has not been fun but I am grateful for the opportunity to release all that constricts my energy of LOVE. My gratitude goes out to all the players in this scenario.  It is coming to an end so if you are experiencing events or challenges, know they finally do go away.

 Here is a perfect example of rules, whether you should follow them or not.

 I have not shared much about my lake lately so let me share the good things.  We have had an unusual winter.  The ice fishermen were able to go out fishing only one day this winter and that was before Christmas.  Our temperatures are up and down and are causing such beautiful patterns on the lake. It still amazes me how water can take so many consistencies which actually draw art as you look out upon the lake. Ice does not reflect the blue of the sky but water does.  Most of the winter, we have had parts of the lake frozen while parts of isn’t.  Sometimes, the ice moves from one place to another and creates pathways of blue water among the ice which is smooth and yet has the texture of the wind freezing little mounds on it.

 The transient ducks have been here for a couple weeks (do you think they came early to console and delight me?)  The ring necked ducks came first, then the red breasted mergansers then the hooded mergansers.  One day I got up and there must have been 40 of them in small inlet of water that was cut in half by ice.  They were having a ball diving for the food but that inlet of ice was too small for them to bother flying over it so they would climb out and waddle to the other side and plop into the water so happily.  One day, the big geese, yes, they are back, had to share the water space with all these little dobblers. I noticed that the geese would get out and sit on the ice because these little hooded mergansers were popping in and out and seemingly got in the way. Yet, the small ducks were not frightened by the big boys.

 I hear the birds again, a sure sign of spring. Aren’t their songs so special in the springtime?  The very first migrant bird to come back is the turkey buzzard whose job it is to be the garbage man.  These birds clean up our earth from all the dead refuse and I thank them for doing that. Plus, they are soaring artists in the sky; they are so beautiful to watch. The brown headed Cowbird is back and my Golden Finches have started turning gold again but just the males. The males are the only ones who molt in the fall and then look almost female.

 Have you ever wondered about your DNA.  Meet the future humans.
