YOUR LOVING ENERGY IS NEEDED

Beloved,

Today is May 1st and the flowers are beginning to appear. They so enlighten the atmosphere and bring us joy and promise of a friendlier climate. My grass is green now but there are bare spots where the piles of snow were. So yesterday I put grass seed down as today we are scheduled for rain. My heart goes out to beautiful California with its drought and no relief in sight. Predictions abound about the weather changes and have been around for quite a while but the changes seem to be happening quicker than ever. I, for one, do not seem to have the ability to change on a dime and that appears to be what is needed these days. There are many opportunities that come my way to practice being more in the present and let the future be whatever it is choosing to be. Can I blame my age for preferring to stay with the status quo? It is so much easier than having to make so many quick decisions. Even with the energy companies, I have had four proposals which all have changed in two days…not counting the opportunity for solar energy which could not offer me a substantial savings. I guess I am from the old school where even energy companies received respect and loyalty.

Nowadays, you just make a call and your energy company is switched. Last fall, my energy company doubled their price and although we had heard rumors, none of us believed they would actually do it. Well, they did and I felt deceived. How could I be loyal to them? It took two months to get changed to a new company. Although I have been calling to see what the new rate would be (it changes every 6 months) they could not tell me so I signed up again for six months with the present company. I found out yesterday that my original supplier is cheaper than the one I switched to so I transferred again back to my original supplier. Hopefully they will not double again this fall because if they do, I will transfer permanently. When I called to cancel my present supplier, I was told: “Oh, we have a new lower price”, which I was not told about when I again contracted with them two weeks ago. If I had not called to cancel with them. I would not have known about the new lower price. Although they were a little lower in price, I felt that they had not been honest with me so I cancelled anyway. “Buyer Beware “seems to be so prevalent these days giving us many opportunities to change our minds. I am so glad that my car mechanic who I have had for 25 years is still very dependable and honest. In fact, he does not take credit cards, only checks or cash and he has a booming business because of his honesty and integrity. Then I received another call today that a certain supplier was even lower than my original one. I am tired of switching back and forth, having to make decisions over and over again. My human brain is tired from all this exercise and I prefer to spend my time enjoying this life. Do you think it has anything to do with all the energy of the sun and the stars and also with these new times? I think so. Here is an article that explains it much better than I can.

I have been out in my kayak twice now and it is only the beginning. There are a few boats out there but more will be out in the future. Each month changes the lake. Right now, I can kayak out to all the edges of the lake as the water lilies are still dormant. When they are out, there are places that are too thick with them, although beautiful, make going through them quite a chore. Now, I can see the homes without all their summer toys out and it is much quieter. I enjoy all the differences because they all change back again. Kayaking is quite a metaphor to enjoy the present because it too will change.

My first hummingbird made his appearance a few days and I am now eagerly awaiting the Baltimore Orioles. The feeders are out but only half of them. When they, hummingbirds and orioles, are here in full force, I have feeders on both sides of my house. I believe I have a new visitor which I have never seen but his antics have led me to believe who it is. I have a huge feeder which suddenly was on the ground and along my fence one morning. The hook that I hang it on was down below the tree. My first thought was that it was a bear but another thistle feeder was still on the tree and a bear would have crushed my feeder. ???? I hung it back up and two mornings later it was back down again. I filled it to the brim thinking that perhaps the weight would keep whatever was taking it off would find it too heavy to lift. Two days later, it was down again. ????? Was some teenager having fun with me? So, I went to my local bird store and asked them what they thought it might be. They are positive it is a raccoon which is a nocturnal animal. It seems there mode of operation is to lift the hook from the tree, shake it and the feeder falls off, giving them access to the food. They suggested using an eye hook to screw into the tree and then use a gadget that holds keys that enables me to hang it up on this gadget. Each night I would take the feeder in at dusk and then put it out in the morning until my son could come and install it for me. Problem solved, it has been a week and the feeder has not come down. Life certainly gives us many opportunities to learn new things and depend on the abilities of others to help us. We are so fortunate to have each other.

Cathy Olsen sends out daily inspirational pictures that are awe inspiring. The one today was an angel in a garden and the caption was “YOU ARE PRECIOUS”. I tried to copy it so I could show it to you but no matter what I did, it would not print on the email. I need a course in how to work these things on the computer. She takes these pictures herself and I marvel at what she is able to capture. She has a way to see things in a different light. She is a new entrepreneur and just in time for Mother’s Day. If you need to inspire a MOM, take a look.

SURRENDER AND BE

Beloved,

The lake is still frozen but thawing on the edges. Two Canadian geese showed up squawking to beat the band. They stayed only five minutes and just flew away. I got the sense they were saying: “We are back, here we are!” All the melting snow is flowing down my driveway going towards the lake and flooding my sidewalk on its way. I keep thinking about California and so wish I could send them the extra water that I have here. It has been a week of ups and downs. Challenges, struggles and some awesome changes happening that were not expected. This winter with its Winds of Change has made me do a lot of thinking about my own life.

I have a knee that is bone on bone and quite painful to walk very far. Because of my chemical sensitivities, arthritis and bone condition, several doctors have said I am not a good candidate for a knee replacement. I have tried two hinged braces, one pull and one push but they caused severe back pain. Soooo, I have been restricted more than I would like so I have decided to take matters into my own hands. I started looking into scooters because I am not ready for a wheelchair yet. In fact, I think all of this is only temporary because I “know” and “feel” that some solution will show up if I am just patient hold the vision of mobility in my mind and heart. I am on Medicare which I thought would cover the cost of the scooter. I found out after many calls to many places that Medicare only covers the mobility chair for use inside the home. So, I finally surrendered in my mind and started searching for cheaper priced scooters.

I was grocery shopping this week when I came across a woman in a scooter. I stopped to talk to her because I believe word of mouth or good advice come from other people. She had gotten hers at Walgreens about 5 years ago and she was able to explain a lot to me. As we were going to part, I realized that she was dressed all in purple. What a coincidence, a purple lady talking to a purple lady. It made me smile. I came home and did research on the computer and talked to someone at Walgreens. The young lady did not seem to know too much about the scooters as they are available only on line. She passed me on to the manager who coincidentally had been asked by his father that day to check into the scooters for him. Coincidence? He is checking into getting a wheeled platform to hook onto the car which is something I had been searching for. Another unexpected contact who will assist me in this quest.

The following day, a black spider the size of a quarter was ambling down my hallway. Spiders were my greatest fear years ago, but I used spiders as the first fear I needed to conquer which I did. I shut my bedroom door but I allowed him/her to just be. In fact, they are a symbol of abundance, prosperity and money so I mentally thanked it for showing up and seeing its size, I thanked it for the large amount of money it would bring me. I went to my Pitch League banquet later and was surprised with a money prize for winning the most games in our season. It was a whopping $294 which I had never expected but now would help pay for the scooter.

This morning, as I was doing my morning meditation and prayers, a woodpecker began drumming on my house. I acknowledge him/her and after 5 times of being interrupted, I thanked the woodpecker and said I got the message. Afterwards, I checked in the Animal-Speak book by Ted Andrews for the meaning of the woodpecker. Its keynote: The Power of Rhythm and Discrimination. It reflects stimulation and wakening of new mental faculties Rhythm is a powerful means of affecting the physical energies. (I have a drum; maybe it is time to start drumming again). It will become increasingly important for you to follow your own unique rhythms and flight. When woodpecker comes into your life, it indicates that the foundation is there. It is now safe to follow your own rhythms. Wow!!! This message is for you also.

As I was preparing to begin this newsletter, I received a call. It was from a branch of Lincare, the only supplier of scooters and motorized chairs covered by Medicare. Her name was Penny and you know what pennies mean don’t you. When you find a penny on the ground, pick it up. It is a message from the angels and the pennies carry the reminder of: “In God We Trust!” She said she had left me 3 messages which I did not receive but I had been trying to find someone who could help me navigate the route to Medicare. I thanked her for being persistent because I had no idea that help was trying to find me. They have to set up appointments with your doctors who have to fill out certain forms. We had a 3way call to set up the apt and then she will fax them all the paperwork. I guess my new path has been opened for me. All I have to do is follow the breadcrumbs trail that is being laid out for me. Imagine all of these synchronicities happening in such a short time. I am open to receive all that is being done to help me. I am kind of chuckling because it is when I finally surrendered my need to be doing, my sense of having to solve a concern, that I allowed myself to accept the messages that coming to me. Remember to be aware and grateful for the little voice of guidance no matter what form it takes… a penny, a spider or a woodpecker.

BLESSINGS OF PASSOVER AND EASTER

Beloved,

Blessings to you on Passover and Easter.

This morning I saw the top of my kayak for the first time this year, the rest of it is still not visible. It has been hidden under quite a bit of snow but it is a symbol for me of the coming possibilities and joy of being free in the water: both the water of the lake and the waters of life. Can you ‘feel’ the freedom that is here now for you in this season?

This past weekend, there were quite a few families on the ice enjoying it while it lasted. It is difficult for me to believe that just 3 days ago, an ice fisherman was out on the lake even though the lake was starting to thaw around the edges. We had a couple of 60 degree days and there is now quite a bit of water at the edge and it feels like there will be no more ice fishing. It is a reminder to me to enjoy this moment because it too will be gone too quickly.

I am not sure just where I will be on Easter except that I will be the Lector for the 11:30am Mass.That is such a privilege for me. My favorite Mass of the whole year is the Easter Vigil, where all the lights are shut off and each attendee lights their candle. It is such an awe inspiring sight to behold all the candles being lit in the darkness and the stillness of anticipation. I will be at that Mass also with many people who come to celebrate with us just on the holidays. It is so wonderful to have an overflow of fellow human beings sharing in the celebration of the Light that comes after the darkness.

Holidays can be challenging for some of you, including me. Getting together with family for holidays can bring back some painful memories for those who have experienced rejection on such days. Most of the time, the hurt you experienced was not intended but it still hurt just the same. We humans do manipulate each other without realizing what we are actually doing. This is a tip for you to deal with manipulation. It is a good tool to remember, it is not just for family gatherings.

Here is an answer to the question that is asked over and over again.

This weekend is very powerful…for many reasons. Not only is it Passover and Easter but it has the energy of the Blood Moon. More info here.

Revel in the energy of the LOVE that is circling the globe. WE as a people, as a species, have crossed over the bridge that separated all of us from each other. Let’s take advantage of the peace that is going viral around the world to feel it ourselves.

I will close by sending you the most powerful emotion of accepting the LOVE that is being given to you. Celebrate!
