Once a parent, always a parent. It is so much easier when they are little
and pliable, when you can change their minds by changing the subject.
Huh? Did I say easier? I forgot the stage of them being two years old
when everything brought forth a NO as they were learning to take
some form of being an individual with their own minds.
My 53 year old son has been diagnosed with a tumor on his
lung. Six weeks ago, the doctor thought it was pneumonia.
He was out of work for a week but seemed to be getting
stronger physically.
I had heard no more even though I noticed how tired he was.
Even when I unexpectedly went to his home to return a
boomerang that my grandson had left stuck high in the tree and
my son was home, I was not told what was happening with him.
I received a call from him a few days later telling me what the
diagnosis was and that he was scheduled for surgery to remove
lymph nodes to check for cancer before they proceeded with any
surgery to remove the tumor.
My mother instinct went into full gear and all I wanted to do was
to heal him and have his bobo go away. After all, I am a healer!
I had just made a fresh batch of Essiac Tea which is a herbal
healing tea invented in the early 1900’s by a Native American
medicine woman. I brought him a bottle with the written material
of what it is and the story of how it was discovered by a doctor
and is now used to heal cancer and even detox the liver.
I also brought him a medal of St. Anthony, the Saint of Miracles,
and the prayer that goes along with it. I told him I would like to
do a Reiki session on him and be at the hospital when they do
the biopsy.
In my zeal, I had forgotten a very important point when dealing
with your children. Even though he is definitely an adult, I was
treating him like he was little and if “I” kissed his bobo, it would
go away.
He let me know in no uncertain terms that he did not want any
Reiki and also did not want me there at the hospital.
My emotions were at full throttle and yet I needed to step aside.
To him, I was just MOM and he did not want to have to be
concerned about my well being while he was in surgery.
To him, I am not a healer although yesterday I did a remote
Reiki session on a young woman who asked for my help.
I now remember what a famous healer priest said to me:
“A prophet is never a prophet in his own house”.
Had my ego gotten in the way? How could I be sure that
I would have helped in any way? I do not know the answer
to that as I am not the one that heals, it is Spirit that comes
through me.
God has given us the most wondrous gift of Free Will and
even if he was standing in front of you, until you asked or gave
Him/Her permission, no miracle or help could come forth.
Although we want with all of our heart to help someone,
we cannot until or unless they ask thereby giving permission.
I had forgotten that most important rule in my eagerness to
help someone I love so much.
Daughters understand mother love in a completely different
way and are more willing to accept help. My son is so
independent that accepting Mom’s help, would make
him feel helpless like a little boy again.
Do you believe in crop circles? If yes, you are open
to the blessings from above. If no, have you ever considered
how they are made?… a miracle?…. or a loving message from
an unseen loving force that is attempting to help us in some way?
Will we as humans accept the offering of love or will we remain
steadfast in our belief that we are in control, such as my son is doing.
It is such a beautiful world and planet but we are not alone in this
vast universe.
A good friend sent me this email with links to view the latest
crop circles. These remind me of how little we are in
comparison to them. There is no way a human could
have created them. We are so blessed to be able to
view them from above to get the full scope and design
and notice how small the humans are in comparison.
