I have been planning a vacation for a while and had everything finally
in place except the airline tickets. To me, getting the plane tickets
is a sense of finality, like I am really going. I know I can’t
change my mind (and you know how we women like choice and the ability
to change our minds) because it would be quite troublesome and would
incur charges whereas I can cancel the room reservation up to 3 days
in advance with no penalty. The website for the Thank You points
where I can reserve my airline tickets seemed to be having a problem.

I hesitated to do it online as I get very confused when I try to do
something online, I prefer to talk to a human who I can ask questions
of. The site kept telling me the flights I chose were unavailable.
I tried 8 different itineraries last night and got the same message.
Soooo this morning I tried again and the same thing. Finally, I
called the Thank You Center and she was able to book it for me. One
thing about going on the computer is that I was able to check out
all the airlines and what they had to offer and not feel hurried
to make a decision because a human on the phone was waiting for me
to make up my mind.

I decided to go to my bow window to look at the lake to calm down
before writing to you. To my utter surprise, a bluebird was sitting
very calmly on the cover of my well. I took a deep breath and asked
him to wait so I could get my binoculars. I have never ever seen
a real live bluebird and wanted to see up close. I finally got
the binoculars in focus and I got a look at how beautiful he was.
It lasted only a minute before he flew away but he took my breath
away.

When I see something unusual or out of place pertaining to insects,
animals or birds, I check out Animal-Speak. A book written by
Ted Andrews about the Spiritual and Magical Powers of Creatures
Great and Small. the Keynote is: Modesty, Unassuming Confidence
and Happiness. It said: Though once common, the bluebirds are now
quite rare. This often is a reminder that we are born to happiness
and fulfillment, but we sometimes get so lost and wrapped up in the
everyday events of our lives that our happiness and fulfillment
seem rare. When bluebirds show up, it should first of all remind you
to take some time to enjoy yourself. If a bluebird has come into your
life, look for opportunities to touch the joyful and intrinsically
native aspects of yourself that you may have lost touch with.

At the Natural Living Expo in Sturbridge a couple of weeks ago, I
purchased a pocket size version of a Guide to Spirit Animals by
Dr. Steven Farmer. It is not as explicit as Animal-Speak, but I
had wanted one I could put in my car or pocketbook so I could take
full advantage of what comes to me while I am driving. This book
said: This is a very rare and precious moment, so open up all your
senses and simply enjoy this time. You’re so involved and bogged
down with everyday events (which I was) that you need to relax and
lighten up. Take a risk and speak your truth to that special
someone (that’s you) rather than holding back. You’re coming into
your own in many different ways, so welcome this milestone with
a relaxed sense of confidence and happiness.

When I got up this morning, I was asking Spirit what would be good
to write about this morning. Then, I did something unusual, I decided
to book my flights. Every Friday morning, I reserve the whole day
solely for communicating with you and for also gathering all
my materials I have saved during the week to prepare for my TV
show. I felt a little guilty as I knew trying to consolidate my
air fares would not lead me to being calm and relaxed or receptive
to my guidance (or so I thought).

You see how all you do is used by Spirit to lead you right where
you are meant to be. Had I not needed a break after my transactions
(which went very easily and quickly) I would not have gone to the
window and I never would have seen the Bluebird. I would never
have gotten the message that Spirit wanted me to send you to show
you how you are always getting messages from the Divine in ways that
you don’t expect.

The message here is to be AWARE. If something unusual happens,
then you are being given a message, a hug, or something to chuckle
about. Watch for them because they happen whether you are aware of
them or not. Our beautiful insects, animals and birds are used
as messengers to uplift our lives when we get too mundane about
everyday living. Look for the rainbow and you will see it. Mother
Nature is communicating with you always so look for the Silver Lining
or the rainbow or a butterfly or anything else in nature that reminds
you of the beauty that surrounds you.

It is not from Mother Nature but it is from a Human. Hooray
for the Human brain which God created.

What sort of mind would create such a fine instrument?? Only a
genius with electronic knowledge and craftsmanship skill!!
