Emotional Trauma   Sept 28
We all have times in our lives when we are feeling down, not together or lost. Lost seems to be a big one for many these days. There is no set answer. You have to start with what is bothering me, not working for me or bringing me unhappiness or frustration. Once you have sorted that out you must find someone you can “TRUST’ to help you work through it. It may be emotional, physical or spiritual. Success is not final. Failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts. You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have. Knowledge is power and self awareness is empowering. Wisdom slowly over time, through much dedication – becomes authority over the self.

Soul Searching
A few years ago I was aware that I needed to makes some changes in my life. Both kids are married with wonderful partners and have careers that keep them busy and we do not spend as much time together. I had been the doing the same thing for many years, and constantly updating my education. I raised my family and worked in the same large bungalow for 35 years along with many renovations. I decided to finally renovate the kitchen the way I really wanted it. The crisis came for me when I lost a soul sister and I was feeling stagnant in what I was doing and where I was living. Linda was one of those souls you do not see or communicate for weeks and when you do you practically finish each others’ sentences like it was yesterday.
For a few years my husband and I would go for a drive looking at properties all over. Nothing ever fit what I felt would be appropriate. I did not share the emotional issue of feeling disconnected, lost and bored. The bored part is a lifelong ongoing complaint. I love to be in classes and learning. That is why I read a book in a day. It was my problem and I had to find an answer that would satisfy me.
John found a picture of a lovely raised bungalow on water. We had to wait to look at it, as it was rented and the occupants were not obliging as they really did not want to have to move. When we finally visited the property and I walked into the house I instantly saw my glass top kitchen table sitting in the middle of the kitchen. I knew this was where we belonged. I did not share what I was doing with anyone until I had all the plans together. It took me a year to reorganize and settle in. With spirits supporting me, I started working on the future of what I would now be doing. I love living next to water as it is so soothing peaceful and most of the time quiet. I enjoy my swimming pool and spend as much time as I can in it. When inside, I am mostly in the upper sunroom overlook the bay or in my office looking out at the bay. I’m sure you get the idea. I  LOVE WATER – in it or looking at it. I feel at home.
My crisis is over and I am content. Many changes still to come. I do not have everything in my life in order as of yet, still working on new ideas. Change is inevitable. It’s your road, and yours alone, others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you.         in love and light
 

Agitated
In the work today I was addressing how agitated I become as I am so sensitive to Mother Earth and the vibration produced by all the tremours. I was reminded once again how little time I meditated. Just finished 45 minutes, so today I am calmer. I have been working on personal issues that agitate me. Guess that makes me human. I have a few people in my life that their actions are not in harmony with mine. I try to address what is going on inside me,  that they either irritate or upset me by their words and actions .I do soul searching to find how to resolve MY INNER Conflict. It’s my issue not theirs. Anger is an attempt to vent or pump up frustrations and cause inner conflict  so that we withdraw or act out. My choice to see what portion of my SOUL can grow and learn by understanding the WHY? Meditation often helps me calm down and speak to spirit to find the answers I am searching for.
Even roses have thorns my dear. In love and light

Sarcasm: Sept 19
Webster Dictionary meaning: a taunting, sneering remark. Those who use sarcasm are using their own pain, resentment and frustration to vent on others. They are looking for a reaction and they feed on the vulnerability of hurt feeling to feed their own ego. When they get a response or see the reaction is negative, it reinforces the attitude and this can become addictive behaviour. Do not react when you feel hurt unless you can address it in a positive affirming way that this attitude is not appropriate. This is their issue not yours.

Marriage. Sept 18
I had the pleasure of attending a family wedding. To hear the words chosen that represented the commitment of a mature couple in the ceremony. When young people marry it’s always about the passion, children, making a home, encouraging each others’ career and growing old together. In perfect world this would work for everyone. We do not live in a perfect world.
When mature couples marry the ideals and desires change. It now becomes about mutual respect, sharing interests which could be a drive in the country, a vacation or even walking Fido in the park. None the less it is wonderful to see love blossom and grow and mature enough that two individuals wish to make a commitment with family and friends in attendance to share the joys of the future.  So, I personally find it exciting and wonderful when someone finds a new partner who truly wants to share the future, whatever that might be.
Wishing all mature loving couples many years of joy, happiness and long life.         In love and life.

Changing Seasons.
Being a gardener I am always looking at how splendid Mother Nature occurs each season. I spend a lot of time in my sunroom looking out at the bay here on Lake Chemong. It is so peaceful and quiet. I have noticed over the last few weeks how all of the Cedar Trees have begun to take on the colour of Rust as the tops of the trees are so heavily laden with seeds and the branches are drooping from the weight.  Other Ever greens such as the Blue Spruce are appearing brown at the top loaded with pine cones. This represents a very cold winter with lots of snow.
In the past I have watched over the late summer for the black and brown (Monarch) caterpillar. I have not seen any where I live now. For those who have them in their back yard, please look at the length and  density of the black in the center. When you cannot see the skin between the black hairs it means hard winter.
So heads up my friends. I predict a long hard winter. Put extra food in the pantry and make sure you get the winter tires on for safety.    In love and light

Blessed: Thank You Francis Sept 14
I had a beautiful outing with the Red Hats in Port Hope to see Beauty and the Beast at the Capitol Theater. After Our fabulous dinner at a local Trattoria I went to car the car collect sweaters for the ladies and my shawl as theaters are always too cold with the air conditioning. As I threw the shawl over my shoulder something whip by me. My sister said I felt something brush by me, shall we look.  I assumed it was the fringe on my beautiful Peruvian Shawl and said “Oh it was just the fringes”.
About an hour later I looked down and my diamond cluster ring was missing. OMG I thought, don’t panic. That’s what we felt by the van. Obviously the fringe caught the ring and pulled it off my finger. I sat there quietly putting out a prayer to Francis ( in spirit) who often visits and has a way of assisting in many avenues of my life.
I sat there quiet and  said please Francis have the diamonds sparkle as I get close to the Van so I can find my ring easily. I repeated it a couple of times. I sat through the balance of the outstanding performance enjoying the company of the ladies and the actors and trusting all would be well.
As we left the theater I whispered, ”Please Francis, Help me find my ring”. The ladies window shopped as I walked straight back to my van.  Approximately about 15 feet away right beside the van I could see a sparkle on the sidewalk. Yup, it was my lovely cluster Ring. I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful connection to spirit and know how to ask for their assistance. “Ask and ye shall receive” 
 Thank You Francis for your continued help.                                  in love and light
 Tomorrow is never promised so today I want all my friends and family to know how thankful I am that                   all of you are in my life.

Trust Your Instincts Sept  13
When we understand and apply he universal laws an truths we find everything begins to fall into place as the universe is supporting our effort to have deeper understanding of yourself, your goals, and even your friendships.
Be sensitive to the inate desire of your heart and respect and work with it.
Have the spiritual desire to help and serve others through the avenue you are seeking.
Focus on what you desire to succeed and others will be drawn to you.
Then watch how the universe supports all that you do. You will attract those of like mind and things will come to you in surprising ways and opportunities may arise that your never dream of. Stay positive and constructive with all that you do

Spiritual Growth Sept
Spiritual Growth happens when we realize every choice has consequences. In some cases, the failure to choose is the result of letting go of the old for the new, the familiar for the unfamiliar. This is the essence of choice; the ability to let your wishes be known, to let go and stand on new and unfamiliar ground. Choice is the divine teacher, for when we choose a certain path or opportunity it is our opportunity to develop our intuition and follow our hearts desire. Choice teaches us how to listen, and why we must obey the whisperings of our heart. This is the choice to grow. When we consciously choose growth over STAGNATION we will be supported by the UNIVERSE and will find truth and strength in your ability to withstand the consequences of your choice. In love and light
                            If you stand for nothing. You’ll fall for anything.

Curses Sept 9
This has been brought to my attention a few times lately. Curses DO NOT WORK. Many years ago it was accepted that curses worked due to peoples’ BELIEF SYSTEM. We have evolved to such a degree in knowledge, education, awareness and spiritual growth they curses no longer have any power over our belief system.
So let me share what Jesus gave to me in a conversation today. An individual that believes and acts or accepts the belief that curses work, needs the most help as they are the most fearful and truly have no self direction.
A curse only works if you BELIEVE and FEAR everything emotionally associated with actions of fear. For self awareness ask yourself1/ where you are at. 2/ What do you need to address in your thought process?  So question the information about the person’s thought process - where are they coming from and what is their educational background to wish to do someone else harm? Restructure your life through positive thoughts to learn from the so called curse.
Example: Susan was approached by a mutual friend.  Sarah told Susan that Muriel had put a curse on her. Susan laughed and stated that she did not believe in curses. So it did not affect her outlook in any way as she simply dismissed the idea. This attitude confirms that Muriel is not coming from a positive place but rather one of fear, jealousy and it was time to walk away from that friendship.     in love and light

Discernment
There will always be useful information for everyone and is should be uplifting and inspire the individual to think in a positive manner. You have FREE WILL and the choice to work with the information that is available to everyone. You will know truth when you hear it. You will feel it in your heart or your guts. Spirit will encourage you to move forward, never backwards. You can never unlearn knowledge. This can be scary but they will never trick or talk you into anything that is not for your highest good. Spirit will never represent a channel as the ONLY SOURCE. Many will have similar information, however, the delivery may be different. A good channel will have spiritual solutions to life challenges, to help you understand why, how or just the cause of an issue or problem. The message should be uplifting, not one of fear, or drags you down. It should inspire you with positive choices to move forward into the future.   In love and light
I think the biggest form of flattery is when other starts to use your material and verbage and call it their own without permission. The tragedy is if they don’t have the education and knowledge to back it up it could back fire on them. In all the world there is no one exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine because I choose it.

Understanding Natural Laws: Sept 6
 Without the structure, of natural law, the existence of life to be able to evolve in a precise and gradual manner, would not exist. As creators of our existence, the parameters would be set off the scales and no ways of measuring evolution could exist. Seeing how evolution needs to be a gradual process, the extreme creations could only become more extreme. An extreme positive high to an extreme negative low. The transformation of evolution would be interrupted and possibly stopped due to lack of cohesion of the energies used (no balance)
Purpose of Natural Law
When new energies come into play, the amount of other energy required to balance needs a channel of direction for assimilation to occur and thus giving balance back. Therefore the laws come into play for just that purpose. After all everything is energy, it must have a source and it must be directed, as it is in constant motion.

Understanding how natural law works and why it works, can help with understanding MEDIUMSHIP. The process of understanding the reason why things happen to individuals, emotionally and mentally define how a medium can work. Being able to recognize our true self as source, but always aware of our balance during all the emotions we carry. This does allow us to direct the thoughts so as to be a clear and positive to work with SOURCE (higher self) to be able to correctly connect to source, to allow what n is needed to do the work.    In love and light
