BREATHE PEACE – DRAMA IS EVERYWHERE

Beloved,

I am feeling more hopeful about my knee and hip situation. I have feared the wheelchair as I could only see that in my near future. I know this goes against what my heart tells me and most importantly that my belief is that we create what we focus on. I just could not see or focus on freedom from pain in movement when every time I took a step; it hurt. So, of course, I focused on that. My mind would not listen to me as I tried to focus on health and freedom in my body. Patience. That is what I needed but when you are waiting for something, it feels like an eternity. I did not give up completely though and was open to new thoughts, ideas and therapy.

Physical therapy has changed so much in the last 10 years. It amazes me what they can do and the knowledge they now have. I started going after my regular doctor had no other suggestions for me after my last knee surgeon said I was not a good candidate for knee replacement.His last resort was to strengthen the muscles around my knee so it would hurt less. The reason I was so scared was that the other hip and back were painful now so there was not another leg I could stand on. They both hurt so I was even more confined to not doing my normal activities. The physical therapist had me doing some light exercises twice a day and visiting them twice a week. My son Bruce suggested I ask about taping. He had it done and it relieved a lot of his pain. So I asked them about taping and they did it on my sacroiliac and I was in complete shock that just putting tape on a spot would relieve so much of my pain. I started to sleep better and move around a lot more.

I am telling you this in case you are ignorant of taping. If you have any muscle pain or pain anywhere, I would suggest you consult a physical therapist for that treatment. I am still in awe of how much my pain was released. I have had a shorter leg for years and a friend referred me to a chiropractor she had used and he gave her a lift for her short leg and now she is even able to go for a walk. I took her advice, went to the chiropractor and he took X-rays and gave me a lift for my shoe. I am gradually weaning my body into that adjustment and that is also relieving some of the pain. I know that the bone on bone in my left knee is still there but it is being assisted by all these therapies. I now see a much longer future ahead of me where I can do more of the activities that I used to do. If you have any fears or situations that cause fear. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE UP.

There was a full moon this week, did you feel it? The world did and reacted accordingly. Your happiness depends only on you. Be like a child again.

With all the drama going on during this election process, I think this article gives a good explanation of how you can handle all of it by honoring yourself, your point of view and especially with no drama leaving yourself feeling good and peaceful.

If one 12 year old child can do this, she is quite the leader and example for all of us. She could not have done this alone, she needed her parents and also volunteers but it all began with her. Out of the mouths (hearts) of babes.

I found this video to be quite enlightening and informative on what is actually happening on our planet and in our world. The President AND the People with David Muir.

FEELING LOST?

Beloved,

I have been experiencing such deep sadness the last couple of months. Being human, I can find many things that are not to my liking or that happened in my past which would account for these sad episodes. I have been trying to figure out what it actually is that accounts for these periods I am having lately. One day as I wake up, I realize that I have experienced all that I could possibly feel in this lifetime and I am ready to go home, to the heavenly realm. I can find no reason to stay here on earth and no one would really miss me for very long anyway. I am not suicidal yet I feel that there is nothing left on this planet that I would want to stay here for.

So I get up and the sun is shining. Nothing warms my heart more than seeing the sun and the opportunity to feel its warmth. I wonder if in other dimensions, do we “feel” anything like the touch of skin or the taste of my favorite breakfast? So I set about doing my daily routine and look for something to do that would raise my spirits. What do I want to do? I don’t know, I don’t have the answer. I believe I am lonely deep in my soul. There is no one to do anything with, no one to bounce ideas off, no one who actually knows the real “ME”. But….who am I? Who is the real ME? I don’t know so how could anyone else know the real me?

I have been living alone for 25 years which seems just like yesterday. There was always some drama that consumed my time and attention; whether it was family or work, or finances. I felt like it was necessary to solve so many of these life problems. Now I realize that the solutions did not come from me, the physical self. Either all the individuals solved their problems themselves or the problems just resolved themselves in some way. I just need to be patient and all life resolves itself. I feel like it is taking a long time to resolve anything at this time. I am still waiting for this sadness to leave so that I can go back to seeing the best in every circumstance.

I realize that I have probably graduated from another phase of life and I am now in the space of nothingness. Like when you finally have completed a huge project and are now waiting for the next one to show up. I wonder what it is and when it will make itself known to me.

Ann Albers has good advice if you are in the void like I am. I am so grateful for these fellow earth travelers that share their wisdom with me.

Here is a more humorous and down to earth practice that helps us create patience.

I was so pleased when I saw that John of God, The Miracle Healer is being recognized and shared with the Good News Network, I can vouch for what is said about him as I made a trip to Brazil to be with him for two weeks and that was 13 years ago. He comes to Omega in New York most years at the end of September and I try to make all three days even though you can go for only one day. If you get the opportunity to go see him, take it.

Do you remember when I shared with you about the gifts of my friend, Cathy Olsen with you a while back? Many of you contacted her and received her free gift of a Light Language Blessing and many of you asked where you could find out more about her. She did not have a website then, but she does have a website now and I would like to share it with you. Check it out.

Let me leave you with a smile, I laughed out loud with this one. I thought it was only us women who could not figure out mechanical tools. Psst: you have to plug it in.

Vacuum Cleaner

A retired guy sits around the house all day so one day his wife says, “Joe, you could do something useful, like vacuum the house once a week”.The guy gives it a moment’s thought and says; “sure why not. Show me to the vacuum.

Half an hour later, the guy comes into the kitchen to get some coffee. His wife says, “I didn’t hear the vacuum working, I thought you were using it”? Exasperated, Joe answers,”The stupid thing is broken, it won’t start. We need to buy a new one”. “Really”, she says, “show me – it worked fine the last time”. So he did (Click Here)…

PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

Beloved,

Yesterday, I kept pondering what I would write in my newsletter. I usually do not know ahead of time as I just ask guidance to come through me to allow me to inspire you to love yourself and yet understand this human condition a little more, sometimes with humor. It was a little puzzling to me that I kept asking myself what I would write. Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it.

I woke this morning from a horrific nightmare and although I awoke from the dream, I could not seem to wake up from the feelings that were generated. We all have our fears and they usually stem back to something that happened in childhood. I usually sleep very well and bad dreams are rare but this morning, the feelings are so vivid that it is another opportunity to look at what happened and release those feelings that I no longer need. One gift I received was the awareness of the childhood incident that evidently was embedded in my psyche.

My nightmares are usually about me getting lost and not knowing where to go, feeling trapped in a situation that I cannot remedy. When I was 6 or 7, I went on a trip with my class to Bennefort, Maine to check out a school where we not only got our high school education but also training for the nunnery profession. Ever since I learned about Jesus, I fell in love with Him and wanted nothing more than to be with him for the rest of my life. Of course, at the same time, I had a knowing that my mission was to be a mother and I also wanted that profession. At that early age, I could not figure anything out so I just went with my feelings. I was in the school bus with all the kids and my dad was driving the nuns from my school in a separate car.

On the trip back, several of us children needed to go to the bathroom and as we were in a city, the bus stopped and we needed to cross the busy street to find a restaurant that held a bathroom. Of course, an adult accompanied us children. I was last in the line waiting for an open stall (are there not always lines of females in the bathroom?) When I came out, there was nobody I knew there. I rushed outside and still there was no one waiting for me. I panicked, of course, and walked around in a circle trying to tell myself that someone would come for me. I was absolutely terrified even though there were many people on the sidewalk but I did NOT know any of them. My mother had always told me that if I got lost, to just STAY right where I was and they would find me. I knew the bus had been across the street so maybe I should go there but then with my mom’s warning in my head, I stayed right where I was left, in front of the restaurant.

Because I was with the children, my father was unaware that I was not on the bus and with all the other children; no one noticed I was not there. Eventually, they discovered it and my dad and the nuns in the car started to look for me. They kept going back to where the bus was and with the traffic never saw me on the opposite side of the street. It took 1-2 hours for them to finally notice me. Do you know how long that is to a child who feels abandoned and terrified?

When they finally found me, I got a severe scolding from my dad; he blamed me for not staying where the bus had been parked. Of course, now, as an adult, I understand it was his fear speaking but at the moment I felt abandoned again by my dad. He never even hugged me or said he was happy he found me.

So…most of my nightmares are about being lost and not knowing the right path to freedom. Last night I again dreamed of not being able to find my way and although I went through many scenarios in the dream which made me physically sweat as I tried to plow my way through a field of tough grass almost shoulder level. Again, I needed to go to the bathroom so I went into a stall and a young boy kept crying to his mom about a “kaun” that he had left in the stall I was in. I suddenly realized he was talking about a “Leprechaun” since I saw the stuffed puppet hanging on a hook. I rushed out to give it to him but could not find him. I kept looking then realized that I had left my shoes and pocket book back in the stall so I started to try to return to the bathroom but I could not find it. Again, in my dreams, I am late for something I was supposed to do. Last night, I had only been outside on a work break for work, so I was way overdue to be back at work and I know my supervisor (male) was furious that I was not there. Why do dreams always seem so real when we are in them? Is it another reality?

One of the fears that I am releasing is the panic when I am not on time for some occasion. In real life, I am usually early so as not to be late. I received an awareness of why I always do that by having this nightmare. Now I can face this facet that was created as a young child and I can now comfort my small inner child in her panic and fear. I not only woke up from my nightmare but I have a new awakening of one of my greatest fears. You are never too old to find out something new about yourself.

What are your nightmares about? My husband used to say I could pass up everything but a bathroom. Perhaps I was trying to prove to my little girl that she was safe because I was protecting her?

This message has deeper meaning for me now, after that dream. Perhaps it will help you find peace and grace.

Look outside to see this marvelous phenomenon. It is worth waking up a little earlier to get to see this.

Were you alive when Betty White was born? Is there anyone who does not know who Betty White is? She is quite an icon and I hope to be like her when I get to her age. She IS ageless.
