NEW IDEAS & MEMORY LANE

Beloved,

As I sit here, I am waiting for the person who is going to transform my deck from a deck that is so dirty from the weather and so much peeling going on that it needs a scraping AND a sanding.  It was supposed to have been done by now but he ended going to the emergency room for pain in his leg which turned out to be a cyst.  I am excited to get his call which means he is healing and also my deck will begin its healing.

Although I sit here in the humidity and heat of a 90 degree day, it also feels like fall is very close by.  I realized last night that the sun was setting an hour earlier than it has been and my clear view of the sunset was not as full as the sunset is moving back behind the trees.  I also came to the realization that I have been as cooped up in the house because of the heat as I am in the winter because of the cold and snow. I am eagerly looking forward to opening up my windows and doors to let in “fresh” air.  It feels like I will really appreciate the fall this year even if it does mean we are closer to winter.  Aren’t we fortunate to have 4 seasons as we get to taste all that Mother Nature has to offer us?

My grandson bought a 1997 Lincoln Town Car.  When he took me out for a ride in it, I was amazed at how much our cars have changed.  It was such a luxury to sink into the seats in his car and it reminded me of how we used to sit three people in the front.  In fact, it had three sets of seat belts in the front.  His trunk seemed so massive to me but I do remember having that much room in some of my cars.  I thought you might enjoy going down memory lane  with me so I included a link that AAA has so generously shared with us.

I guess I am going down memory lane this week.  Has someone ever said to you:” I don’t know what this world and the young people in it are up to these days.”  It seems like we are having a harder time bridging the generation gap.  Here is wisdom from Abraham that brought the answer to that question so much clearer to me.

Children coming forth today have a greater capacity to deal with the greater variety of information that is coming forward than you did. They deliberately are coming forth into this environment where there is more to contemplate. This generation gap that you are talking about, it has ever been thus. Each new generation, every new individual, that comes forth, is coming with you having prepared a different platform for them to proceed from. There is this thing that gets in the way of that that says, “I’m the parent. I got here first. I know more than you do.” From the children’s perspective, and from the purity of their Nonphysical Perspective, what they are saying is, “You’re the parent. You got here first. You prepared a platform that I am leaping off from — and my leap will be beyond anything that you have ever known.”

This is great. Take a listen and see if it works for you.  Neuroscientists discover a Song that reduces Anxiety by 65%.

I don’t believe there is one human alive who is not seeking a healing of some sort.  I put myself in that category also.  Jamye Price offers us an intention we can use to assist us in that pursuit.

This story gave me a different perspective on crows.  I know they wake me in the morning with their chatter as they search the beach in hopes of finding some crumbs that visitors might have left.  I never realized that they were so intelligent.  Enjoy this amazing story.  Wouldn’t it be great if all cities used them for a clean-up crew

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.
