Beloved,
I don’t know if you know about my journey with my knee. I tore the meniscus in it 15 years ago, had the arthroscopic surgery but still have been in pain. Arthritis and bone on bone has set in and gradually I have been losing my freedom to walk or stand as much as I would prefer to. I cannot have knee replacement because I can’t take pain killers or anti-biotics. Recently I listened two hours a day to an episode on stem cell research. My hopes have been raised and I have been doing some research of my own to find a practitioner in the US rather than leaving the country which is what many have been doing. The stem cell procedure is varied depending upon your need and also how much you wish to pay as our insurance companies do not pay for any of this.
I am excited, eager and yet have some trepidation about all of this. I called one company and spent last weekend filling out the endless questionnaire to give background to my medical circumstance. I had to call them back and ask how I could fill it out on the computer so I could email it back to them. Guess what, I succeeded in doing so. I was called and given two choices, two different prices and one was in NY City and the other here in Massachusetts. This morning I received a call from the doctor’s office and they have set me up to have a phone consult with the doctor next week. All of this sounds simple but it requires me to make some decisions about which procedure to have done. There is a big difference in price. Please say a prayer for me that I am able to surrender to my highest good in my heart brain and not let my mind succumb to fear of the unknown.
For years, since the first rocket went to the moon, I have been asking the same question over and over again but not able to find the answer. It just didn’t make sense to me that we could send all these space crafts into orbit and then they travel for many years without a gas station around to refuel. This article answers my question to an extent and I know that some humans have had the answers all along but now they are letting it out to us, the public. This is just the beginning folks.A simple daily prayer by Patricia Diane Cota-Robles that can give you many moments of inner peace.
I asked myself this question and it raised a lot more questions in my myself until I could no longer question. It led me to a place I had not been before and made me think differently about what was going on around me.
When I read Richard Rohr’s morning meditation, I found the answer and it was simple. I just had to share it with you.

Can you imagine learning a new song in a different language in under an hour? I don’t really know if I could do it but I certainly would be willing to try. Would you? This is a great example of what we humans can do if we are willing to join with others who speak differently than we do. And….it was beautiful to listen to and “feel” the song even when I did not understand the words.
