AWARENESS

Posted on by

Beloved,

You know I love kayaking and in all the seasons that I am able to.  Yet my favorite time to kayak is in early spring, like right now.  Most of the boats are not out yet, most docks are not in the water and the barriers that create the swimming spaces are not there either, so I have clear access to the whole of the lake.  The water lilies and the weeds and plants are not yet fully grown out of the water so I can get so much closer to the water’s edge.  Of course, the leaves are not out yet either so my view of the homes that hide behind the trees are a lot more visible.  I enjoy seeing the changes and improvements that have been made.  This view also gives me new ideas I might contemplate using.

I am chuckling because it takes me a lot longer to go around the whole lake too, as I have much more to look at. I even saw a head swimming above the water but could not tell if it was a beaver or another aquatic creature.  It was going opposite from me so I had probably disturbed its space. The Canadian Geese are not skittish yet and just kept chomping on someone’s lawn and ignoring me with not so much as a honk.

With a clear sky which is allows the water to be so reflective of anything on shore, it gives me a totally different perspective as I silently glide through the reflections of the trees, yards and homes. As above so below.  I can get into a deep meditation as I allow myself to ponder the beauty of this unusual scenery and the other worldly feelings that arise. I love gliding through the clouds that are reflected in the water and that scenario occurs much more often than having a totally clear sky.  When I am out there in nature, I find it difficult to come back in to shore.  I don’t go kayaking when it is breezy or windy so the times I can go out are all the more precious to me. I am ever so grateful for the opportunities that Mother Nature gives to all of us to enjoy her bounty in whatever way she manifests it.

Do you remember I mentioned that my computer had received a virus and I was locked out of it?  I have a very dear friend who came to my rescue.  His name is Barry Costa from Maine, formerly from Connecticut. He is not only good at creating websites; hence he is proficient at computer language. He also can make the computer sing and be the blank canvas for his artistry.  The art he creates on the computer is magical and certainly inspirational.  Soul Star is my favorite. Check these out.

Barry Costa is also a healer using Matrix Energetics which is something unlike anything else available in today’s healing arts. He has done several sessions for me and I can honestly say I experienced something I had never felt before.  It is so easy, simple and effective on your part. Have you heard of Matrix Energetics?  Check him out.

One good deed deserves another.  Sooo cute, it will make you smile.

I am glad my beaver does not do this, but this beaver was not aware of doing it either.  Have you ever felt that you are in a herd that is following a leader that doesn’t know where he is going?

A friend of mine told me that a robin is a symbol of Christ and of course, Easter.  I had never heard that before, so she sent me this link that explains it. When I become aware of something new, I like to share it with you.

This next link certainly gives us a perfect  example  of this truth.

WHO ARE THE HEROES?

Posted on by

Beloved,

Happy Easter and a joyful Passover.

All of us taxpayers have received another great gift for Easter and Passover.  Because April 15th is on a Saturday and Monday is a holiday, you have until Tuesday April 18th to file your taxes.

All has been quiet on the Open Meeting subject.  I am so enjoying the peace again even if it is only an interim.  I told you about the Police Academy for Seniors that I am attending.  I am learning so many little things that are giving me a much deeper understanding and appreciation for our officers.  Yesterday I went along with a police officer in his cruiser for four hours as he was doing his duty.  Mothers, you know how to multi-task but I was never aware of how much multi-tasking is done by a police officer  in a cruiser. He was so alert and saw so many things including a car that seemed out of place in front of a convenience store with a driver that looked quite young.  He did not interfere while the young couple was just sitting there but checked it out after they were in motion.  It turned out fine but his skills are quite honed to anything unusual.

A young 18 year old girl was going 20 miles over the speed limit but it was down a hill and it was not on the highway.  He stopped her and only gave her a letter of warning which will make her think twice about going that speed again. What a gift he gave her because now she is now more aware of her actions.  Isn’t that what a good parent would do?  There was an accident with no injuries so I did get to experience going fast in a cruiser with the lights flashing.  It is amazing to see all the cars either stop or pull over.  It gave me quite a different perspective from that point of view. We were on our way to a bathroom break when all of sudden he turned around and stopped a car that had made an illegal U-turn. That action made me laugh as it was more evidence of his complete focus on seeing all that was happening around him even when he was talking to me or listening to calls. As we were sitting there, his lieutenant pulled up beside us and asked me how I was doing and feeling. The whole police station is interested in how we seniors are responding to this Academy. Everyone has gone out of their way to make this 9 week course very interesting and informative.

When I woke up yesterday morning, I contemplated not going on this ride along as I don’t like violence or riding in fast cars.  I went anyway because I am such a curious (nosy) person and like to experience all that life has to offer me. The officer has no way of knowing what will be coming for him to do on his daily rounds although I had to wear a vest and had to stay in the cruiser for safety reasons. I certainly was not bored and although it was very interesting, I did not experience many of the things that he has to do unexpectedly.  Thank God.

I was talking when all of sudden he made a U turn which is when I noticed a man out of his car and in the street hollering at someone in another car.  I had never even noticed that but the officer had and he took control.  He had both of the cars pull over and then one guy got out of his car to beat up the other one.  Then a female witness in her car pulled up and she was shouting. My officer called for backup as there were three very angry people and only one of him.  It took no time at all for 3 other cruisers to be there, one being the canine officer with his dog.  All of the officers did a great job at calming the people down but it did take some persuasion and some time for that to be accomplished.  These people were so lucky, they were given a stern warning but none were arrested.  It was road rage but there was no damage to vehicles and no physical altercation (which had been averted).  As the canine cruiser left, the dog gave a couple of woofs to say goodbye.

I feel so fortunate to have been able to experience 4 hours in the life of a police officer.  It widened my perspective and I have a deeper appreciation for what our police need to deal with in order to keep the peace.  Each event needed a different approach and a different solution.  Another thing that surprised me was that most of these people stopped after hearing only one Whoop from the cruiser.  I don’t know if I could stop that quickly after only one sound from the horn.  One offender stopped before the officer could even sound the horn.  I guess most people know when they have done something wrong and we were not in an unmarked cruiser either.

Do we take the time to show our appreciation to this wonderful men and women who take care of us 24 hours a day?  Out of the mouths of babes is a great saying and this boy not only said it but proved it.

Or this one?

Imagination is the secret ingredient in manifestation. It is something I am pursuing so I like this reminder.

Abraham on this same subject.  Boy, I need to listen to this more often. Hearing advice works better for me although I do leave written notes around for me to be reminded.

This really impressed me and others.  How would you like to manifest this way?

Love and Light

BULLIES AND MIRACLES

Posted on by

Beloved,

I know I am late, would you believe that I was hacked.  Let me warn you that my message said it was from Microsoft and told me if I shut my computer down, that I would face possible release of all my info like my credit card info.  I am grateful that I was aware enough not to call the number.  My computer was locked so I did not know what to do.  I went to the phone book to check if there was a number for Microsoft that I could call to see if this was a scam.  There was no number but I did start to look at my computer books to see if there was a number in there for Microsoft. .

Then…..I realized that I had a human angel named Barry Costa who is a miracle worker with the computer. I called him and left a message explaining what had happened.  He called me back and proceeded to guide me through some steps.  There is such a thing as TeamViewer where I can give him access to my computer while I can see exactly what he is doing.  He lives in Maine and I am in Massachusetts. It was something that would not let us delete it, I was told that it is a sign that you are not in control and your computer is always under your control unless it has been invaded which mine had.  He really had to maneuver and manipulate around in the computer to finally get rid of the invader.  I am so grateful for him and for his expertise.  He is also a miracle worker with energy so he is an incredible energy healer. Me saying he is a human angel does not even do him justice. Saying Thank you feels like so little for what he accomplished for me. I feel so fortunate to have a friend like him, he feels like family.

I would like to send you a link that he sent to me.  It is fun and you can see the results. Try it, you will like it. Who do you want to be in the future?

I went to the next Selectmen’s meeting where the answers to our questions were supposed to be presented to us.  There was a 9 page letter of answers but mostly the letter touted the supposed achievements of the Director of the Senior Center.  Truth was manipulated and there were some downright lies.  As we had not been given these answers before the meeting, we had had no chance to read them but just to quickly peruse them.  The Selectmen tried their best to bring an end to this situation and I had been hoping for a peaceful resolution myself.

I was contemplating the notion of stopping this madness quite a bit, until I went to play cards again with my league.  During our game, the director came out and spoke to us saying: “I am hurt that you did not come to me with your problems, blah, blah, blah.  She proceeded to pass around to each table, copies of her answers and put extra ones on the middle round table which we were not playing cards at.  Then she proceeded to put on the table, copies of only the people’s signatures that had signed my complaint form but with 13 names CROSSED OUT. She had the gall to cross out people’s names so there would be less signatures on my complaint.

Needless to say, I was floored.  She had no right to violate the privacy of the people who had signed and no right at all to cross off the names on a legal document and display them to the public.  Although the signatures had been attached to my complaint as that is necessary for some of the people in power who are involved. I felt what she did to be a violation of privacy.

After the league was done playing cards, I apologized to the people as I was so deeply saddened that they had been subjected to that embarrassment.  Some were furious with  what she had said and done. They said there was no reason for my apology but I felt it so deeply that tears had come to my eyes.  Now, at my age, I usually only cry when I am happy so this came as a surprise to me. I am not in the mood anymore to make peace with someone who is so vindictive to our seniors.  I am now planning to go forward with my complaints so more people in charge will discover what is happening to our Seniors. Am I increasing the situation, am I resisting thus creating more chaos or will this come to a peaceful end?  I still feel like it is a mirror of World Politics on a local level.  What is the answer?  Look at what happened in Syria and what our countries’ response was.

Here is Sarah Biermann’s response to her challenge. It is a good read and one minute I understand and agree and the next I don’t. Have you ever felt like you were on a seesaw with yourself on the other end?

Lee Harris has a terrific message for you and for me.  This message really resonated with me and kind of explains what I have been going through.  Check it out and see if it speaks to you too.

Here is some good news on how three cities in three countries are helping our planet.  We can help our beloved Earth and special home be the best it was meant to be.

See what human angels can accomplish. … Miracles.

Love and Light
