DAY OF LOVE REMEMBERED

Beloved,

Spring has Sprung.  We have all been holding our breath waiting for the warmth and new growth to show up.  The other day I was sitting in my living room with the storm door open and the screen door was letting in the warm air, it smelled so good. I had the kitchen window open opposite the door and I could actually hear the birds singing.  It felt like the perfection I had been waiting so long for. I could just sit and breathe it all in.  We have been waiting so long to feel this free with nature. I have been out kayaking and trying to get out when the wind is calm but Mother Nature is having fun with me.  It starts calm and then when I get to the last mile, the wind picks up and then the water gets its waves and it is a lot tougher to get back home. One day I fooled her and went out in the kayak when the waves and wind were strong.  I just sat in my kayak and let the waves rock me like the wind was rocking me in a rocking chair.  I did not get far but I had a lot of fun.

Happy Mother’s Day!  What a model for mother’s love is Mother Teresa.  This is a note that was found hanging on her wall.  Forgiveness and Love were prominent in her life, can we imitate her?  I bet we can and guess what, we already do. Look and you shall find.

What a novel idea to consider!  Are you familiar with 3D, 4D and 5D?  Where are you in this spectrum?  Listen to Jill Renee Feeler and find out.  I bet you will be surprised.

Do you exercise or like to exercise?  I used to when my body cooperated more fully.  This shortvideo is an explanation of how the number 10 can be worked into your daily schedule and you won’t even know it.  Try it, you will like it.

Are animals really our teachers?  I hope so, as this short clip verifies.  Smile!

Could you hold your breath for 6 minutes?  I think I kept holding mine while watching this video. What I found fascinating was watching when she let a bubble of air come out and how she ended her dance to come up.

Would you like a breath of fresh air?  Would you like to be more comfortable in this world of various energies?  Here is a message for you.

MOTHERS AND NATURE

Beloved.

I have been trying to meditate but all I “see” are these larvae of the gypsy moths. I am sitting here waiting to be inspired so that I may inspire you but all that seems to come through is my concern about this problem and my need to solve it. Sooo, I am surrendering to my concern but I will share with you my journey with these veracious eaters of our trees.

The birds and squirrels seem hungrier than usual and there are more of each species. There are so many in fact, that my hummingbirds hardly come to their feeders because with so much activity, they are having a hard time not being hit by them.  The squirrels this year are the worst as they are landing on the Oriole Feeders and consuming all the grape jelly.  I saw one squirrel hugging my bird feeder but then noticed that it was eating and chomping. I went out and discovered that the varmint had chewed a hole through the long clear plastic tube that holds the seeds.  It is supposed to be squirrel proof and I have had one like it for 10 years and this never happened.  It is not cheap as it is $70 -$80 and I see no way to fix it.  I will take it to the Bird Store and bird people to see what can be done but I don’t hold out much hope.

I got up this morning to discover the Oriole feeder on the ground and I could not see the hook on the tree that it was hanging from. I went out and discovered that the squirrel had landed on the feeder and when it jumped off it sent the feeder careening off and the other end of the hook was hooked onto another branch.  Part of the feeder, a seating place, had been broken off. I am seriously considering trapping these squirrels and bring them for a ride to another place with trees far enough away that they cannot find their way home.  I don’t want to do this but I see no way of stopping all four of them.

Anyway, back to the larvae.  I place the Oriole feeders on the railing of my deck to fill it with grape jelly.  I noticed so many small black things which I thought to be small ants.  I made a decision to wash it down since I must have gotten some jelly on it that was attracting the ants.  I took another look and then came into the house to get my reading glasses.  They were not ants but very small caterpillars that were the size of ants.  Oh boy, what to do now.  They were all over the railing, climbing up my house and also the garage.  I made up a concoction and sprayed it on them and I hope the Northeaster we are expecting this weekend will wash them all away as the concoction did its work. I don’t dare put that concoction on my tree because I don’t know if it will harm it or not.

I played cards at the Senior Center last night and spoke to others about my dilemma and they gave me ideas that I hope to implement to keep these critters from getting bigger and defoliating my tree. AS soon as I send this newsletter off to you, I need to get on the phone and call around to see where I can find the equipment and goo that hopefully will be the solution. My heart is heavy as I do not like to harm anything even if it is an ant or spider.  I feel that I did not have a choice in this matter but it doesn’t make me feel any better about doing what I have to do.  No wonder I cannot meditate or connect to Spirit right now as I usually do.

Lee Harris’ message comes at just the right time.  It speaks to me and to you.  Listen.

Esther Hicks makes me laugh at my problems and also my reasoning.  She amazes me, astounds me and brings levity to whatever is heavy on my heart.  I would love to be able to reason like she does.  Of course, I realize that she also has contact with Abraham and that makes me chuckle at myself again.  You and I have just as much info waiting for us when we connect to the Divine.  Sometimes, I just can’t seem to get there so just listening to her makes me feel lighter.

I won’t be attending this year’s Natural Living Expo as an exhibitor but I am planning to attend as an attendee.  I thought you might enjoy an early peek into what is in the works for us.  I hope to see you there.

Can you believe that Pope Francis was on the TED show?  This Pope is truly the Pope for all humanity.  Instead of enjoying his pomp and circumstance, he insists on being treated like a regular person, just like you.  Yet, he spends so much of his time traveling and “being” with all of humanity with his love and tenderness.  He is such an example of Jesus who spent most of his time with the everyday person instead of with the rulers of his day. I have hope that his message of love is heard by you and me.

Please forgive me for dabbling in the past but this story touched my heart and brought back so many memories.  My mom also had dementia and I bought her a robotic orange tabby cat just like the last live cat she ever had which she had named Trouble.  In her mind, this fake cat was her “Trouble” and she would go nowhere without it.  She brought him to the cafeteria so he would have lunch with her and the others.  He ended up with quite a dirty mouth because she kept feeding him.  He went with her to the hospital also, he kept her calm.  This “cat” made a lot of seniors happy and the staff enjoyed him also.  Eventually, I had to buy her another one because the fur was rubbed off her first one and I just could not wash his face any longer.  If you have a beloved in a nursing facility, consider getting one of these “human made pets”.

Sunday is Mother’s Day, honor your mother.  It takes so little to make her happy and it makes you happy also.  I want all of you mothers to honor yourself and allow yourself to be pampered today and if you are alone, pamper yourself with whatever makes you happy.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY    BLESSINGS TO ALL MOTHERS

Love and Light

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ALL HUMANS

Beloved,

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY! To all of the caretakers who are surrogates of the Divine Mother Energy, blessings to you. This is a day to honor the LOVE that is held in a mothers heart whether it is in a single dad’s heart, in the armed forces, in a teacher, a crossing guard, a judge, a parole officer, foster parents, etc., etc., etc. I HONOR YOU.

From the time I was able to think of my future, I only wanted to be a mother. When I was five and my brother was born or when I was a teenager envisioning my future, I knew without a doubt that my mission was to be a mother. I was so sure of that fact that I never even considered if I would physically be able to have a child. There are many females who are mothers because of their love and care of children that were not born of them. I married at 17 and became a mother shortly after I turned 18. Didn’t we feel adult at that age, so cocky sure of ourselves and our lives? What an awakening I had when my son was born and put in my arms.

In fact, I asked my first born son, Steve if he would come with me to lunch as I wanted to celebrate a 60th anniversary. He was confused and asked why. I said:” 60 years ago today, I became a mother for the first time and I want to celebrate that fact. You opened me to a love that I never knew existed and I still feel that unconditional love today and the moment that it happened.” I love my daughter and my younger son as much as I do my eldest son but he was the very first experience I had of such a deep love and totally unconditional. Where would this world be without the experience of such a love? Would anyone know it existed or that it was possible?

The book I wrote: “The Wounded Chalice” is a book about the sanctity of the human womb which is the only organ that can sustain a human life from conception. When a hysterectomy was called for, I told the doctors that I would not have the surgery unless they returned my uterus to me so that I could honor my children’s first home, the haven that protected them when I could not and who knew them before I did. After some heated discussions, I won out and my three children were with me the day I buried it so they could honor the part of my body that allowed them to have life. At the time I made the decision, it felt right to do it. Yet the day (Thanksgiving) I told my children what I had done and asked them to be alongside me, I had an awareness of how unusual my request had been.

I have borne three children, two boys and a girl. My oldest son, Steve has three children, my daughter, Debra has one daughter who in turn has my great grandson, Morgan and my youngest son, Bruce has no children yet he inherited my heart for mothering others. Humanity, wake up and smell the roses. We are one species on one planet and we are gifted with the heart that has the ability to feel unconditional love. Wouldn’t you like to feel that emotion all the time? It is possible and also probable. Look around and you will see that Love abounds all around you. The media does not show as much love as there is out there because it does not sell. They think that only horror makes headlines and money because that is what we are tuning into. Will you join me as we show this whole planet what being human really means?

I want to share this in honor of Mother’s Day. Most of us are not aware that there is such a vehicle but it gives you the ability to leave a message to your loved ones that will last long after you are gone. My younger son, Bruce interviewed me for what I had to say and I now have a CD that can be passed down to my family. Mine was done before the smart phone. Check this out.

Moms, in some shape or form, contribute to who we become. With Mother’s Day right around the corner, don’t forget to take time to appreciate a mom by simply listening to her story.

Get inspired! Sit down with your mom to watch this short, heartfelt animation of Kay Wang’s interview with her son and granddaughter. Whether she’s a hard worker, sarcastic soul or just an amazing woman… You’ll be happy that we reminded you to listen. https://storycorps.org/animation/no-more-questions/

I was so impressed by these young men. What if they had not been born? I love technology even as I struggle with it but I am always amazed by the human brain that comes up with these inventions. A computer cannot compete with our brain; it just makes our inventions more plausible.

Would you say that this male waiter has a mother’s love? See, it is all around us. Take the opportunity to look around and see it.
