SMALL THINGS ARE BEST

Beloved,

I was given such a beautiful gift this morning. I looked out and saw a merganser duck which is rare for me to see. The female was alone or so I thought. The beautiful male was in a spot that I could not see very much, he was in the part of the lake that was hiding behind the tree that is on the beach. The reason I am so happy is that when I was out in my kayak the other day, I came to one of the coves and I must have disturbed them because they flew past me. The water lilies are not out yet so I can go deeper into the coves right now and when I saw them fly by, I was surprised. In all my years here, I have never seen the merganser duck be in the coves. In that moment, I thought how marvelous it would be if they nested on my lake. So the appearance of them in front of my beach this morning is raising my hopes that they will indeed nest here.

How has your week been? A little confusing as your plans are suddenly changed or something new pops up that you need to do? My week has been one of fulfilling a lot of responsibilities that I was not planning on attending to and also a week of surprise events that warmed my heart. It feels like this time is designed to move us out of our comfort zones and habitual daily lives. I am reminding myself to stay in the moment which is easier sometimes than others. I am getting a lot of practice opportunities to do just that which is good because that is one that I wish to develop into a habit. I still have not got my windows washed but my car has had its oil changed which led to finding out that my front brakes need replacing (that will be next week). My generator has had its oil changed also and did NOT need to have the spark plugs changed so it is all set to give me power when it is needed. The cost of these was higher than I expected but I know and trust that I have been guided to take care of these so they will serve me well in the next moment.

I did not have the usual amount of time to prepare for the Expo this weekend but guess what? It went smoother than I expected. I had a delightful visit with some friends that have been away for the winter and then received a phone call from a friend I have not heard from in two years with the hopes of physically getting together next week. Check your week and see the unusual things that have occurred. It might surprise you to see what the energies of the eclipse and the Grand Cardinal Cross of yesterday and the day before and also the upcoming solar eclipse on the 29th brought to your awareness. You might have been so busy that you are not aware of the gifts you received as well as the challenges. This is a time of collapsing 3rd and 4th dimensions yet it is a time of seeding. You are in powerful seed moments of opportunity. You are seeding your future, so allow yourself to focus on your dreams. We humans are much more creative that we give ourselves credit for. Check out this video and be in awe. For me, this is explaining what part of our future will look like and we will be guided through the dark moments by something that is not really visible in the 3rd dimensional world.

Here is another reminder to you of the ingenuity of mankind which you are an important part of.

I want you to give yourself credit for the gifts you have. You may never make the news but that is OK as you are fulfilling what your heart wants to do whether it is publicized or not. One moment at a time, you are changing your world by sharing the gift of you. Just a smile from you makes everyone feel better and light enough to share their gifts. When we all share with one another, what a world this will be.

Here are some simple markers to happiness, just like the road that shines after absorbing the light of the sun.

It’s the little things that matter most.

I am off to Marlboro to set up at the Discover You Wellness Expo for this exciting weekend to come. If you go, please stop and say hi and maybe I could give you a hug.

THE APRIL ENERGIES

Beloved,

What a sight to behold as I raised the shades of my bow window in my living room this morning. The lake has been melting at the edges but yesterday, it melted so much more that this morning the houses across the lake were mirrored in the water. Do you know how long it has been since I have seen that? It seems like forever. Ice melts differently in a lake than most people realize. It starts at the edges which actually loosens the whole big floe of ice which proceeds to move around. It actually floats around on the water and the more it thaws, the more you see the movement. It is a huge grey colored “thing” that actually can look like plastic. It does not reflect the sky, only the water can do that. But this morning I could see across the lake and see the houses mirrored in a small segment of water as the daylight came to reflect the sky onto any lake water that was not covered.

AS I looked and basked in seeing this beauty once again, I noticed some white spots which I could not make out with the naked eye. I got my binoculars which are kept near the bow window and looked at the area where the white things were. Guess what they were? The merganser ducks! I was so excited as this is around the time they appear but the lake is always thawed when they come. As I peered through the binoculars, it was so much fun to see the white bodies of the male mergansers and the reddish brown color of the females. They are divers so it is always a challenge to count them as they are not always “on” the water at the same time. There were 16 of them and it is always a treat to see them disappear at the same time and then come up at the same time. That does not happen often. It is much like a dance with a rhythm all its own. The biggest treat is when they come in front of my house as I can watch the WHOLE symphony at the same time. With binoculars, your width or full view is kind of restricted. The water in front of my home is the last to thaw or should I say, that is where the ice floe ends up before it finally dissipates and then the ducks are free to come right in front of the beach. The diving ducks do not come onto the beach; they are interested in only diving in the water.

SPRING IS FINALLY HERE!

There is so much energy in this month of April and we are all feeling it even if we don’t know it. You can tell a lot by what is happening around the world. With all the earthquakes and tornadoes and our political scenarios happening, they are a mirror for what is happening right inside of us. There is so much I could share in explanation of this phenomenon. I will choose those which I think will interest you and also those which give the most information of how we can help ourselves with the energies being so rampant.

Let me begin with Lee Harris which the beginning just might shock you a little, it did me. I just never thought of life in that way although it is something I knew, it just was not verbally expressed. He has a good tip for how you can feel calmer when things are chaotic around you.

Dana Mrkich had a lighter version of what is happening.

Sarah Varcas has a more detailed explanation if you would like to know more.

Do you ever wonder if what you are doing or where you are has meaning? So many times we are delayed either in traffic or by a flat tire or by some other circumstance. Do you rant and rave because you are so worried about being late or that you don’t have time? This is a reminder that you are ALWAYS right where you are supposed to be, at all times. A loving energy has their finger on what is happening and even when we do not know the outcome, we are always in the right place at the right moment. Humans could not possibly orchestrate down to the minutes and seconds of what is happening around us.

Necessity is the Mother of Invention! I say that Mothers use Necessity to Invent. All it takes is LOVE – for ourselves and for others to make this a better world for ALL.

http://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/health/mothers-invention-helps-disabled-son-and-countless-others-to-walk.html

Let’s use our LOVE to make this a better world for ALL. We can do it by just visualizing Love being spread to the whole planet. We do not need wires or towers to communicate or pass along what we are feeling. WE humans are capable of just feeling and then making intent and that LOVE just touches the rest of humanity. Remember: WE ARE ALL ONE.

LET’S CELEBRATE THE NEW BEGINNING – SPRING

Beloved,

How was the First Day of Spring for you? I know the energies were off the charts and we were all being affected. There are still more special days coming so I wanted to include this link. I got it last week after I sent out the newsletter but it is fun to look back and see what happened. At the end of this there is a note about special days ahead so take a peek.

http://spiritlibrary.com/rev-irma-kaye-sawyer/cosmic-weather-equinox-gateway-2014-shine-on-stabilize?utm_source=Spirit+Library+Updates&utm_campaign=0c251f8030-Daily_Update&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ef6a5211f4-0c251f8030-120804410

Yesterday was absolutely beautiful and I had the urge to wash my windows. It is not warm enough yet but it “felt” warm with the sun streaming in. I laugh at myself everyday as I look at my new full glass door looking at the lake. Do you know what I see? Nose prints on the glass!!!! I keep forgetting that the glass is there and as I am always trying to see more, I leave an imprint in more ways than one. I have thoroughly enjoyed my new doors throughout the winter. The kitchen one has only a half window but if the sun is out, it comes right in that door. All I need to do is open the inside door and I have a full glass storm door from which I get the sun to sunbathe and then I can see the sun even more. It makes winter more palatable.

It is raining today, after all it is spring. The grackles and robins are enjoying the snow free grass and dirt. For most of my life, I believed like most people that a robin was the first sign of spring. Well, that has proven to be a myth as they stay around the fields where there is food but don’t come to our yards because there is nothing to eat. Today, I saw a first. There were quite a few grackles and one robin who were pecking at the ground. All of a sudden a grackle rushed to the robin and pushed him out of the way and snatched the worm. Perhaps that is why the grackles tolerate the robins as they are such good worm finders.

There is such a wonderful trend going on or perhaps they are just finally letting us know what is happening. These young people today are inventing and creating items for so much less cost and they are sending it to the neediest people on the planet. There are too many to share in this newsletter but I want to give you a taste. It just might have you looking at our young people in a different way, and….it gives us a taste of what is to come.

It is not just young people who are inventive but inventors are everywhere. This is such a great idea that I wish it would spread all over this globe. Not just for keeping our bodies warm but for keeping our hearts warm.

It seems that I am not finding as much humor as I was before but Mother Nature sure has some relaxing and interesting sites to refresh us. I love things that I can share with my family and friends too.

The Highs and Lows of the Tide – Beautiful!
