LOVING YOURSELF

Beloved,

So far, the winter in this valley has been easy to navigate because we have not had much snow. We are expecting a northeaster tomorrow but probably only up to 6 inches. It is ironic because both storms will be on a Saturday which prevents me from going to Church. I travel three quarters of an hour to get to my Church (Sacred Heart on Chestnut Street in Springfield, Ma) because I feel full when I leave there. I am fortunate that being retired, I have more time to focus on my Spirituality without the worldly distraction but that one half hour a week when I join my energy with others is very fulfilling. We were not meant to be alone and this is a way of joining like energy with like energy.

I mentioned it to my son this morning and he said: Don’t worry, Mom, God will forgive you”. It made me realize that even my children do not realize that I go to Mass because I CHOOSE to not because I HAVE to. There is a big difference in doing something because you enjoy it and you receive a blessing of good energy and/or doing something out of guilt or trepidation. I don’t believe God is up there with a hammer just waiting for us to mess up. Mother/Father God loves us too much and gave us this beautiful world and each other to enjoy life. Church or Mass is simply a gathering of people who are celebrating getting together and sharing loving energy. It is a get together, a communion of like souls who share a common bond, a Love of God, Jesus, Mother Mary, the Saints, and all the loving energy from oodles of people who share or shared that unfathomable LOVE. I wonder how many other souls are still in the dark ages of long ago when everything was considered a sin. Even Mary Magdalene has been vindicated by the Catholic Church and called the Apostle of the Apostles. Hey, we all pray to the same God even if we have given God a different name. If you had a different name, would you still be the same person?

Here is an explanation from Jim Self that is short and explains a lot.

Here is Lilou Mace and Sonia Choquette with a representation of what is happening to all of us. Even the psychically gifted are not exempt. Not much fun to go through but so worth it in the end. Much like giving birth to a new life, it is painful but look at what you have given birth to.

Have you ever experienced Jo Dunning? Her loving energy is mesmerizing; in fact, listening to her voice is so very peaceful. Here is a process that works, The Five Energy Processes. You can do one at a time so it is more digestible.

I know that cops are not in the news much anymore but this shows just how much the cops are like teenagers or normal people. Enjoy and join in if you know the words, I did not but enjoyed it immensely anyway. When people are being themselves and having fun, it is contagious. Notice how he stops moving when someone waves at him.

A FANTASTIC GIFT FOR YOU

Beloved,

This is certainly a busy time of the year. How are you doing with your time? It is a part of the Christmas season to be busy thinking about all those you love and how to please them. Please do not forget that YOU are extremely important to all you love so save some time for yourself even if it is only a few minutes of time to close your eyes and just focus on breathing. Breathing is essential and we breathe quite differently when we are rushed or harried. Just pay attention to the air going in and out of your nostrils and mouth. It does not take long for you to begin to feel more centered and energized. This is a season of testing your belief in yourself and who you really are. Michael Buble and Elmo say it best.

Holiday Survival tips for empaths. Every mom is an empath yet you don’t need to be a mom to be an empath. We actually all are empathic even if we are not aware of it. These tips can help you survive not only family at Christmas but at any other time of the year.

This week, the whole week including Saturday and Sunday has me on the road each and every day. I even had two Christmas parties on the same day. I am grateful that although on the same day they at least were scheduled for different meals – one was for lunch and the other for dinner. I thoroughly enjoyed them both and came back home at 9:30 PM with such a light heart and a satiated body and soul. While I was out gallivanting, I even managed to find a glass pot for my coffee pot which if you have ever tried, is an amazing feat. Replacements never seem to fit just right and although you can make coffee, they don’t sit on the heating element the same way so your coffee doesn’t stay hot.

I seem to be in a pattern of breaking glass, maybe I am going to go through the glass ceiling. My favorite glass broke, my glass coffee pot cracked, I can’t replace my wall mounted cordless screwdriver and flashlight, they don’t make them anymore. A lady’s best friend is her electric screwdriver; it is amazing what it can do that I can’t do manually. I have had quite a few lessons in being in a throwaway society this week. I long for the time when we had fewer selections yet spare parts were still available which made it simple to keep your favorite things and you did not need to learn how to use things all over again. Hey, am I showing my age? I like to think that I am showing my wisdom.

My heart breaks for all the police who are protectors and guardians of people and also animals. They are being punished for a few bad apples. Remember, it takes only one rotten apple to spoil your opinion of the whole basket. Please do not let the over publicized negativity affect your opinion of our Police. I am very glad to see the peaceful protests because that brings awareness to the whole country of the abuses that some officers inflict. These are examples of everyday devotion of most of our police officers. Smile at an officer the next time you see one, it will help more than you know.

This special gift was sent to me by a special soul sister, Alisha of http://www.shiftwideopen.com/ It is a gift which, once I started listening, I could not shut it off (that is why this newsletter is arriving later than usual). I always make sure that I experience or at least have the same knowledge that I send to you. Jo Dunning’s Five Energy Processes is a gift for you and a gift that you can give to anyone else. I was going to wait until Christmas to send this to you but after experiencing it for myself, I just knew that you would want to share it with all those you love. These are tools that take only a few minutes and Jo Dunning is connecting you to Source energy in a way that focuses on what you need. You choose what to focus on and you have her assistance in connecting you to your Source. Tis the season for gifting, please accept this gift from me and share it with others. Let’s help it go viral.

AHA MOMENTS

Beloved,

Our weather has been fluctuating between below freezing temperatures which created quite a few accidents last Monday night and Tuesday morning, to two days of rain, to today which is still below freezing but sunny. I have bird feeders which are primarily for smaller birds especially the Golden Finch. Last Tuesday morning I noticed an Eastern Towhee at the thistle bird feeder. That was quite unusual as they are ground feeders and are always under the feeders scrounging for food. Then I noticed this Towhee at the finch feeders every day, several times a day.

This morning as I was preparing my breakfast, there he was again at the feeder. I chuckled and thought: “you are different aren’t you? Your brothers and sisters are not following your lead but you are getting fed and they are not!” as the ground is covered by ice crusted snow. Suddenly as I was chuckling and enjoying this little black and white fluffy round ball of fur, I became aware of what I had said. A light went off in my head and I was aware of an AHA moment.

It is OK to be different, to march to the beat of a different drummer. I am unique and so are you. That is OK. We are being fed from a different source than we are familiar with. The Creator is guiding us to feed ourselves, our Spirits in a unique way. By you allowing yourself to be different, to be unique, to be YOU, a new model is being presented to the world. You are the prototype of a new species that is being fed by the Creator in a unique way and you will never be hungry for Love again. Love yourself enough to follow your heart and feed your Spirit in a different way. This little bird was happy with his full belly and he was happy being who he is. Be content with who you are and follow your own guidance.

I am sure that bird would enjoy having his fellow companions along for the feast. So would you. It is OK to want companionship and love from others. After all they are our family. Isn’t it great to belong to such a family that arrives when you need them most?

Dee Wallace gives you an explanation of the power of the words: I AM. Do you know how many sentences you begin with I AM? It is interesting to become aware of what you are creating. Here it is:

Enjoy this season as you focus on the people who mean the most to you. SMILE at everyone you meet as you are shopping, it will make their holiday a little less stressful and it is CONTAGIOUS.
