NATURAL LIVING EXPO AND ME

Posted on September 23, 2010 by marygrace

I am writing this newsletter a little early because I have a
BIG weekend coming up. I will be a speaker and have a
booth at the Natural Living Expo on Sept 25 &26, 2010.

I am busily preparing for this event, yet the lake drew me
out in my kayak. The lake has been so still all day, hardly
a breeze to ripple the beautiful mirroring effect of all the
trees in their glorious colors as background for all the
homes on the other side of the lake which were reflected
on the water. It is so unusual to be kayaking on a mirror
and quite a different experience so I seized the moment
and went out.

With hardly any wind, it is so much easier kayaking with no
resistance that I was hoping to go around the whole lake
which has been rare for me this year as my shoulder is
still recovering from my fall earlier in the year. My
favorite places to go to is the two coves at one end of
the lake. When I got to the first one, the geese were
there so I honored my commitment to them that if they
stayed off my beach I would not disturb them if I saw
them as I kayaked. So….on I went to the next cove and
that one also had quite a few geese so I moved on. There
are more of them as they are gathering to practice their
flight patterns for their annual migration.

I did get to go around the whole lake which is such a treat.
Many of the boats have already been pulled in and housed
for the winter and some of the homes are closed for the
season. More and more cabins are being converted to
year round homes so there are less closed homes. This
is a bittersweet time for me as I actually have the lake to
myself so the peace and quiet is unbelievable . Even the
birds are not chirping and I did not cross the path
of the beaver that likes to slap his tail at me.

A moment in time to remember for the future when the
lake is frozen and although others like ice fishermen and
ice skaters and snow mobilers are active, I do not go
out on the lake. I feel such love and appreciation for
Mother Nature as she transforms once again.

If you are coming to the Expo, I am in
Booth #10 and I will be giving my talk and workshop
on Love Is Enlightment at noon on Saturday in the Executive
Suite. I will also be offering Loving Advice from the Mother
(who is the Divine Feminine, Mother Mary) at my booth.
I would love to give you a hug if you are able to
make it, please stop by and say HI.

put the link further down.

FEEL GOOD CPR

Posted on September 18, 2010 by marygrace

I have been trying to find something to write to you about.
My well of inspiration seems to have run dry and I know
we all have periods of dryness, in the physical world and
also in the spiritual world. I decided to just sit here and let
whatever comes out to be what I was meant to share with
you.

I know I am resisting the fall weather only because it means
that winter is not far behind. I so loved the summer, It was
a true summer was it not? I so love to be warm, wear less
clothing, walk around barefoot in my house and outside too.
I love to go in my kayak with only shorts and a top, to sit on
my deck and enjoy all the birds flittering around and chirping
to me and each other. The sun just warms my spirit and makes
me smile to just think about it. I can open my windows and
doors and let the warm air in and watch my tomatoes ripen.

Did it tell you that I did something that made me laugh at
myself? I decided this summer to have tomatoes, cukes,
and peppers in pots so I could pick my own. Well, my
cherry tomatoes were ripening nicely but they kept falling
into the pot with a little piece of the stem attached. I
assumed (you know what assumes does?) that the birds
I was feeding were landing on the tomato cages and
knocking them off or some other insect was cutting them
away from the cluster. I moved the tomato pot as far away
from the bird feeders as I could and it was still happening.
I finally looked at the plastic label that I had put in the dirt
so I could remember what was in each pot. You’ll never
guess. I was growing Sun Gold tomatoes which were orange
in color when they were ripe. I had been waiting for them to
turn red but they knew when they were ripe and fell to the
ground. It’s funny, but I had no more problems after that
discovery, I wonder why?

We have been having a cold spell, colder than normal for
this time of year so I finally turned on my heat throughout
my house after just turning it on in the bathroom for one day.
Last night I was so cold I turned on my space heater near me.
It is on wheels which I love, so I wheeled it into my office so I
could have some extra warmth here. To help me get over
this hump in the road, I am going to focus on what I like about
the colder weather.

I was able to throw a jacket over my banging around clothes
this morning to go to the dump, I did not have change. It feels
good to snuggle into the flannel sheets I use for the winter. I no
longer have to wash the hummingbird feeders as they have left
for the winter (I miss them and the orioles, though). When you
love someone, it is not a chore to care for them. The trees are
showing their individuality with their different displays of color.
I get to sleep later in the morning as the sun no wakes me up so
early. A good cup of coffee or tea seems to taste so much
better as it warms your insides. Hot cereal is a treat also. I
will be taking down the screens so will have a clearer view of
Mother Nature. Night school is offering an array of subjects
that pique my interest. These are just some of the things I
am using to make the transition easier.

I do have some information that will make you feel good
just to know about it. I know you want to help wherever
you can and in an emergency, we don’t always know
WHAT to do to help. Take a look at this site and
learn how you can help any time you run into a
situation that needs immediate attention.

Although I have been trained in CPR, I always wondered if I
would be able to do mouth to mouth resuscitation with a
stranger. NOW, any of us can help if we are faced with
this dilemma. Who knows if one of your loved ones will
need your assistance some day.

I know this made me feel better just knowing it and right
now I am looking for ways to feel more interested in
the moment I am in. Have a Happy Autumn.

I want to share something that lifts my heart…….and makes me laugh

Betty White and Johnny Carson, obviously early in both their professional lives, which only makes it better.

THE PURPLE LABOR DAY

Posted on September 3, 2010 by marygrace

Labor Day always brings to mind the laborers who created this
country and the benefits that all of us have because of their
dedication and effort. Laborers today are looked down upon
as educational degrees and wealth are the achievements most
sought after. Let us not forget that in order for us to have homes,
clothing, food and sustenance that it took back breaking
physical work to provide those for us.

This is not to downplay the benefits that education has brought
to us like all the new technology and the opening of our minds
as well as the minds of our children to what the world has to offer.

The important thing to remember is the necessity for the balance
of both. This reminds me of an article I read in the doctor’s office
of a Purple United States. Of course, that title caught my eye as
anything that speaks of purple or is purple gets my attention right
away.

This article made so much sense and was put in a context that
reflected what I have believed for so many years. We are a red
and blue country with each color(political party) fighting the
other for supremacy regardless of the toil that it takes on our
nation. Decisions are not made for the good of the people but
for the good of the party. How can ANY President or Congress
effectively run this country when the ideas given are voted down
just because the opposite party proposed it.

Purple is the combination and balance of Red and Blue! Think
about it. How great could our nation be if only the best of both
colors was considered and given the dignity it deserved. The
inharmonious patterns of behavior that both are displaying are
keeping our country from being the shining example for the rest
of the world. Let us exemplify to other nations by holding the
balance of both colors and schools of thought and then we
will be ROYAL PURPLE.

Have you ever considered that the color of the Divine
Masculine is blue and the color of the Divine Feminine
is pink(light red)? Combined together they become
purple and that is why purple is considered such a
royal color. Many schools of thought and even science
are now proving that we embody both masculine and
feminine traits. True peace begins with us and when we
combine both and give credence to both, we find
ultimate joy and happiness.

This is what I wish for you this Labor Day. May you find
the purple of your heart and let it spread to all.

Love and Light
