THE JOY OF LIFE

Beloved,

“Good News Network” sent me their weekly “good News” and there just too many to choose from to only pick one to send you. I decided I am going to send you these videos and stories chronologically which will give you a deeper understanding and love of life and all of its journeys along the way. Being human is such a blessing which allows you to feel and live all of the amazingly different perspectives that life offers. These are experiences that you cannot be aware of when you are in spirit form. You need a human body, mind and heart to get all the gifts that awaits you from birth to transitioning back to the Source of All That Is, God.

Let’s begin with being celebrated just for being born and incarnating on this beautiful planet.

I resonate with both the toddler and the senior as I have been both.

There are special moments even during the teen years.

You meet many people who inspire you along the way.

I had lunch with a few former co-workers a couple of days ago and learned something I was not aware of. My wish is to be cremated and not be buried. I do not want my children’s inheritance to have to pay to keep up my cemetery plot and I have the belief that the land on earth is for the living. I was thrilled when the funeral directors were finally allowed to cremate you in a cardboard box rather than burning the expensive coffin that you were forced to buy. I do not want an expensive urn either. I came from Earth and to Earth I wish to return. Now there is another wonderful change. I can prepay my burial with all the instructions that I want followed and it is guaranteed to be honored by funeral homes no matter where I am living at that time. So… no airline costs or transportation costs to pay for either. My children will not need to make decisions when their hearts are grieving. I will know more once I start the exploration of this feature but I think it is such a fantastic idea. Here is another fantastic idea which will bring more life to the planet.

I live in Wales but Wales, Massachusetts. This article really impressed me as this is what life on Earth was meant to be….for the living. PS. I don’t think I would like to consciously live to be that old in a human body but this tree really impressed me.

I do not wish this to be somber newsletter. It is my wish that you enjoy each moment as it comes and love your humanity which is a great gift. How do you feel when you start recounting your memories? Don’t those memories bring back joy and especially smiles for that particular occasion when you share those memories with those you love? Pictures of the past even those of a few days ago, bring a special remembrance and perspective of what you experienced. But…don’t live in the past, enjoy this time now.


Love and Light

TAP INTO THE ENERGIES OF THE SUMMER SOLSTICE

Beloved,

Wow, what a beautiful day this was. Although we had no rain, I looked out and saw a rainbow that appeared to start at the point of clouds that looked like a spear with a boomerang above it. Have you ever looked at the clouds and shapes just seem to appear? I just love looking at them and they are the ones that make the sunsets ever so beautiful. I am always pleasantly surprised at Mother Nature’s vast skills at painting sunsets distinctly different each night. In fact, at this time of the year, I hate to go anywhere in the evening as the sunsets are right in front of my own eyes and I do not have to travel to see them.
Happy Summer Solstice. It is officially tomorrow morning around 6:30 AM EST. I do not follow the stars or the planets but the information I have been reading, this one will be a powerful one. Here is an explanation that will give you some food for thought.

Ladies, do you look at yourself differently than others see you? It is a common trait among the females and you won’t ever see most men worrying about how they appear to others. I envy them sometimes for their ability to just be who they are, they are not concerned about protocol, fashion, or how others see them. Yet…we women respond to certain modes of dress, hair and actions. When I watched this video I was struck by a deeper appreciation of who I AM.

“Why, oh why can’t I?” sings Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. Part of being a woman is to allow hope in our hearts. One concept from this that I garnered was not to look outside myself for the rainbow or the castle in the clouds. Each of us has everything we need right inside of us, we just need to look there and trust the guidance we get. I say thank you quite often during the day but I was listening to a speaker who said that the secret to being grateful is to be thankful from the heart. I think the words and I say them usually out loud but I can’t remember focusing on my heart when I do. That is the secret to “feel” so lucky that every day, every moment is like a rainbow that beckons us to be real joy. Intent and focus on the gratitude being HEARTFELT is the secret ingredient to always feeling truly happy.

On this day of your life,
I believe God wants you to know…
…that home really is where the heart is. And if your heart
is centered on God, you are ‘safe at home’ everywhere.

In this day and time of continuing change, many people
find themselves moving a great deal, and constantly
having to try to make yet one more place “like home.”

Yet home is a quality you bring to a place, not a quality
that a place brings to you. Let yourself feel at home
anywhere and people everywhere will welcome you
always. And isn’t a place where you are always
welcome…’home’?

So feel good where you are right now. That’s mastery.
Neale Donald Walsh

I just learned a new word, Angiogenesis. I think we are going to be hearing a lot about this in the near future. I wanted to let you in on this so you will be familiar with it and what it means. I believe in miracles, do you? Miracles come in many forms and today’s advances in technology and medical breakthroughs would have been considered miracles in my parents’ lives, even in my own younger life. Listen to this video and you may just learn something new and perhaps change your perspective on the future of humanity. These new items just make me smile as I realize just how much we are taken care of from above by the ingenuity and guidance our inventors receive.

ENERGIES OF THE MOMENT

Beloved,

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY to all the men.

The weather is still erratic and seeing how the weather affects us humans, are we acting erratic? I feel the energies as we all do but I know I released a lot of erratic energy in my dream last night. Or should I say the dream I had after I went back to bed this morning as the weather is grey and rainy and also chilly. Why are these dreams so vivid and usually so chaotic? Perhaps it is to release some tension that we are still feeling. I am grateful to my dreams and also my nighttime sleeping for giving me rest and more energy for the next day.

Would you like some inspiration? This story inspired me although I have no intention of running but I did buy a wetsuit so I can take some swimming lessons. The water is always cooler in the pools where they marathon swim or “teach” others to swim. I have always wanted to learn to swim after a childhood incident where the boys on the raft kept pushing me away from the ladder and I could not get up on the raft to rest. It was my first attempt at swimming the distance from the shore to the raft so I was a novice. I still have no idea how I got up on the raft but after that episode, I always felt I had to have my feet touching the ground while in the water. Here I am on a beautiful lake and I watch people swimming with such ease that I am envious. It looks so freeing just to glide on the water without fear. I have a day pass to the YMCA to test the temperature of the water in the teaching pool and they also have another pool which is a lot warmer but it is only 4’ deep so it is no good to learn. My body does not like cold water so I usually don’t go in the water until later in the summer. My intent is to be able to use the wetsuit for lessons and also to be able to enjoy the lake much earlier. ** I did try the wetsuit on and I did not get stuck in it, I was able to get it off**

I know a lot of us keep asking why there is so much turmoil in the world. Why is Mother Nature being so finicky and causing havoc around the whole planet. AS I was reading this article, I had a knowing that through all of these disasters, there are very few deaths. This is given to humanity as an opportunity to open their hearts as well as their homes to those who have lost so much while we sit in our homes being very comfortable. We, as a species, need to be able to give of ourselves and if no one needs us, then we forget to give freely from our hearts. These disasters are reminders to humanity what really matters.

My mom was in a nursing home for at least 10 years and I learned so much from her as well as those who took care of her. Without the elderly in the nursing homes, how would all those who care for her and the other patients have the opportunity to give of themselves for others? There would be no jobs or need for all the necessary equipment or services that are provided. It is NOT us that give to them; it is THEM that volunteer to stay on earth in service to us. While my mom was alive she made me feel vitally alive and useful as well as loved. Today, my children are all independent as well as my grandchildren and great grandchild. There is no one in my family that really needs me or what I have to offer. (Advice from the elders is not really asked for today and the times of today are always busy, busy, busy). Please know that I am not feeling sorry for myself because I am very grateful that I can be independent and being independent means that I am capable of finding other avenues for my loving energy to be used. I am soooo grateful for my health and vitality. I just became aware of why I am going down this train of thought today. A dear friend, the administrator of our Senior Center was hospitalized for two weeks and now has been accepted by Hospice. Here is a woman who devoted her life to serving all who came to the Senior Center and she will be leaving us for a better heavenly home in a few days or so. And…..she is younger than I am. Boy, does that hit home and make me even more aware of the privilege it is to do for others while they are still with us.

Yesterday was a full moon and I am sure it has a lot to do with how us humans are feeling and reacting to the energies. Here is some info that is very enlightening and useful. Enjoy!

I cannot leave you without providing you with a smile.

The shortest video you’ve ever . A woman goes back to work after thirty years.Watch carefully, the video is only 5 seconds long, but, you’ll get it.
If you’re younger than 40 years old, you probably won’t understand it.
