Moms new website and Pumpkin Pie

My internet was down yesterday morning.. (mercury!?) and I am being so slow this morning. Do you ever have times like that when you just move slow.. it doesn't happen very often to me..but here I am wanting to write a post but just feeling more in a yin, feeling , inactive space rather than in yang action mode. ..But, esp so Mom doesn't start worrying about me (lol) here goes:
Oh, btw, her new website is up or almost up - www.joangregory.ca

It used to be just about her art, which is amazing.. but now it is about raw foods also.. and visionary living! Cool!
& ps - for those who don't know my life story yet, we went raw together, over 2 1/2 years ago - Shes actually the one who started this whole thing!!


I brought a raw pumpkin pie into work yesterday.. it was an experiment.. and I am hesitant to post the recipe because I want to experiment with other ingredients in the filling -like avocado and pine nuts with the pumpkin - but everyone loved this one so Ill post it cause it will be a little while before I experiment again. I have a busy schedule coming up. But I promised I would - someone wanted the recipe ; ) .

& ps another great thing about being a raw foodist.. we were at work eating the pie right out of the pie plate and I offered to go get a clean fork for someone & she says.. "..But I want your cooties - You have "Super" cooties!"
: ) LOL


Pumpkin Pie

Crust:
2 c almonds
1/2 c dates
dash of cinnamon & salt

Thats it.. Blend together in a food processor.
You can use other kinds of nuts if you like. Experiment - I actually used 1 1/2 c almonds and 1/2 c walnuts in the one I just made - Its all good! (& good for you!)
Press out using hands and fingers to cover base and edges of 2 pie plates.

Filling:
3 c pumpkin
1 c coconut
1 c dates
1 T cinnamon
3/4 ginger grated
1/2 t nutmeg and salt
1/8 t cloves

Process the pumpkin and coconut through a juicer with a blank plate and then puree all the ingredients together in a food processor.

So, thats it.. Easy!!!
Hey, now pie really is easy..
"Easy as pie" doesn't really make sense in the cooked food world. ; )

Wow, I am up to my last pic already.. and so many more things.. just when I get on a role it's time to go.
Oh, the Arcturian event was great Thurs eve!!! I bought a set of cards and the game and all the Arcturian toys to play with at home. I am so excited about the full day event tomorrow. My husband laughs at me, he said "I used to hear about people like you" I am not exactly sure what he meant by that.. but I took it as a compliment.

I am so amused by so many things these days.

Have an amusing, fun, intoxicating and mysterious day!!!!

The Arcturians

I am attending, and now volunteering, at a multi-media event about the Arcturians, created by the artist Janosh, at the Bloor Cinema, tomorrow evening and another one all day Sunday.

from the website: The presentation, which takes you on a spectacular journey into your subconscious, consists of beautiful holograms, powerful music, life’s greatest questions and several Activations, which will give you a profound and inspiring insight as to how you live your life and in which way you can direct your path in life into a new direction that fits within your own truth and passion.

..& as super-beings we are all about saving the Earth through living our highest purpose and destiny! : )


The mystery of crop circles has fascinated thousands of people for years. Still more than a hundred crop circles appear every year, mainly in England. Every crop circle contains a different code that influences a specific part of our subconscious mind. It is for a reason that each hologram carries its own title, such as Openness, Integration and Time Shift. You can find all of these colourful holograms with their geometric shapes, specific meanings and powerful symbolism on the left side in the menu ‘Crop circle codes’, for the conscious minds of the future.
A channeling from the Arcturians here:

We the Arcturains salute you and welcome you to this glorous vibration.
The Garden of Eden that has been spoken about is a reality.
It is an understanding of the Beauty that we behold in ourselves. It is the world beyond duality. When all is One. When we recognise the beauty in ourselves and we recognise the same beauty reflected in another ,it is paradise. ..


I am reading about the Arcturians from here:

Arcturus is one of the most advanced civilizations in our entire galaxy.
-Edgar Cayce-

Edgar Cayce has said in his teachings that Arcturus is one of the most advanced civilizations in this galaxy. It is the fifth- dimensional civilization that is a prototype of Earth's future. Its energy works as an emotional, mental, and spiritual healer for humanity. It is also an energy gateway through which humans pass during death and rebirth. It functions as a way station for nonphysical consciousness to become accustomed to physicality. The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch describes it as the mid-way programming center used by the physical brotherhoods in this universe to govern the many rounds of experiments with "physicals" at this end of the galaxy.

The Arcturians teach that the most fundamental ingredient for living in the fifth dimension is love. Negativity, fear and guilt must be overcome and exchanged for love and light.

The Arcturians travel the universe in their starships, which are some of the most advanced in the entire universe.

wow.. ok, not sure how relevant this is to the event I am going to.. but that was a def little sci-fi twilight zone episode I just went through. cool! : )

Have a spacy, out-there, peaceful & harmonious day!!!

Love Life!

Raise the vibrations and Celebrate the mystery!

Cranberry sauce ..with a superbeing drink on the side


Our family Thanksgiving dinner that was planned for Sunday was canceled as we are waiting for a family member to be admitted into the hospital to start chemo treatments right away - for leukemia. He is going in this morning. (xo! - my heart is there.)

But we got invited to our friends place downtown for dinner.. it was so awesome.. There is something about Thanksgiving dinner that goes way beyond the food, and even way beyond the people that are there.. but both of those were great also. Wendy, my friend and our amazing hostess is looking for land outside of the city right now.. she has a dream to start an organic farm.. and is now actively pursuing it, thats exciting!

Wendy had all kinds of raw foods there. A big fruit bowl, cut up veggies, nuts - she made sure they were raw, sprouts - sooo thoughtful. I kept it more simple this year also.. last year I made so many things- alternatives to the traditional cooked Thanksgiving foods - mashed potatoes, pate spiced with herbs, sage yk. etc.. but this year I just made a big salad to bring and cranberry sauce. I love raw cranberry sauce - imho, its wayy better than the cooked version.
& so easy to make!

Cranberry Sauce

3 c cranberries (1 c set aside)
1 c pineapple
1 c honey dates (or 6 medjool)
1 apple
1 orange (or lemon/pref) - juiced

Blend 2 c cranberries and the rest of the ingredients in a food processor. Puree. Then add the cranberries -1 c - set aside, and pulse chop them in.

Its great as a dip with a cut up apple.. or..

Yesterday, my amazing gardening friend & neighbour came over & helped me trim my tree in front & we took down a small tree in back. That was great. It was so sunny & hot, hard to believe it was summer.. we were sweating.. so I cracked open a coconut & we had E3Live and coconut water and then slices of coconut, with cranberry sauce. This stuff is so great.

I am sure I must have mentioned the benefits of drinking coconut water with E3Live before.. but just in case.. here we go, your science lesson for the day!

Its actually the chlorophyll in the E3Live which reacts so well woth the coconut water.. well, there may be more to it, E3Live is sooo nutritious, major, major nutrients and minerals etc going on in there.. but it is really abundant in chlorophyll. Chlorophyll has almost the identical molecular properties as our blood. Exactly the same except for the 1 atom at the very center of the chlorophyll molecule is magnesum, which makes it green. & this atom at the center in our blood is iron, which makes it red.
In WW2 they used to use chlorophyll for blood transfusions.
Chlorophyll is an amazing blood purifier & cleanser.
Now coconut water has almost the same molecular structure as the plasma in our blood..
so, you take the 2 together and its like instant blood transfusion.. which gets you really buzzing and makes it really easy to get yourself into bliss mode! : )
Coconut water also has lauric acid - found in the coconut oil and also in palm kernel oil & breast milk. It is the substance which gives you super immunity powers, it also interacts in a way that allows water to dissolve fats ..and it also raises your metabolism.

ok, Science lesson over.. thats it ..On with your day!
Have a great one.. today were working on raising the bliss level.. but hey, its what we do everyday.
..feeling divinely blissful and creating peace on Earth!
Superbeings unite!
: )

Creating, Mercury retrograde, Pronoia, a walk on the beach and a world full of meaning


I had a message come to me at work today - many actually - but this one really stands out to me. Someone came in & said he didn't know why but he felt he had to come & tell me something. I had only met him once before (& now he's a most appreciated new messenger friend!). He said that he had thought of this a couple days before & knew he had to come tell me this:

That we are creating everything that is in our awareness. Everything. It is important for us to realize that we create our own surroundings. Everything that happens around us we are drawing to ourselves.
The more we realize this, and take accountability for our environment, for everything that is in our perception, the more the illusion falls away and we draw more positive to us. The more we blame others and do not accept responsibility, the more negative is brought to us, the more we live in illusion.


Mercury is going into retrograde soon. I felt it sooo strongly & got someone at work setting up their laptop to check the dates for me. It starts Oct 14th. Ive mentioned this before.. but its such a big phenomenon.. and usually about 2 weeks before it starts I feel it coming.. like PMS (pre Mercury Symdrome) Huge. People flipping out over ridiculous things - Someone at work getting mad at me, demanding someone else's password. Just crazy mercury type things going on & it hit me..and sure enough.. bang, right on schedule for the mercury Chaos.

Check out a great write up on Mercury retrograde here.

Its book review excerpt time.
I just loved this excerpt - its feel good positive stuff - interesting writing.

The following piece is adapted from my (Rob Brezney's) book
PRONOIA IS THE ANTIDOTE FOR PARANOIA: How the Whole World Is Conspiring to Shower You with Blessings

(Pronoia is the belief that everyone is out to shower you with blessings as opposed to paranoia - that everyone is out to get you)

Let me remind you who you really are: You are one of the chosen ones. You're a luminous being. A primordial miracle. A resplendent avatar. You are a deity in disguise--not a Buddha or a Christ, but of the same lineage and made from the same mojo.

I want to be sure you get what I'm saying. You're an immortal messiah. You have been around since the beginning of time and will be here after the end. Every day and in every way, you're getting better at playing the mysterious master game we all dreamed up together before the Big Bang bloomed.

Let me put it another way. You're a rebel creator longing to make the whole universe your home and sanctuary. You are a dissident bodhisattva joyfully struggling to germinate the seeds of divine love that are packed inside every moment.

It's time to remember. You are a shimmering burst of spiral hallelujahs that has temporarily taken on the form of a human being, agreeing to endure amnesia about your true origins. And why did you do that? Because it was the best way to forge the exquisitely unique and robust identity that would make you such an elemental force in our 14-billion-year campaign to bring heaven all the way down to earth.

You and I are freedom fighters scrambling and finagling and conspiring to relieve all of our fellow messiahs from their suffering and shower them with more blessings than they know what to do with.

*

Lately, I must admit, our work has seemed almost comically impossible. Many of our brothers and sisters believe that everything is upside-down and inside-out. Is war really peace? Is slavery really freedom? Is ignorance strength? How did it all get so insane?

Even many of the smartest among us seem to have lost their vision. Cynicism has become a supreme sign of intelligence. Compulsive skepticism masquerades as perceptiveness. Mean-spirited irony is chic. Beautiful truths are suspect and ugly truths are popular.

...

Maybe most importantly, we have to be ferociously and single-mindedly dedicated to the cause of beauty and truth and love even as we keep our imaginations wild and hungry and free. We have to be both disciplined and rowdy.

That's especially thorny because of the fact that a genocide of the imagination is raging world-wide. It threatens to render our imaginations numb and inert and passive and tame.

I know you know what I mean.

...

Your imagination is supposed to be the engine of your destiny. It is the wizard's wand you can use to design your future. Your imagination is your power to create mental pictures of things that don't exist yet and that you want to bring into being. Every human creation on this earth has begun as a vision in someone's imagination.

Your imagination is also your very own all-purpose joy stick, your snakeskin bag of magic tricks. It's your remote-control channel-changer, and the only reliable rearranger of anything anywhere anytime. It's your X-Factor, your wild card, your wicked funny instigator, your Goddess-sanctioned trouble-maker -- your swarming, terraforming, always-morning brainstormer.

Love desperately needs your imagination. As psychologist James Hillman says, "For a relationship to stay alive, love alone is not enough. Without imagination, love stales into sentiment, duty, and boredom. Intimacy fails not because we have stopped loving but because we first stopped imagining."
I always imagine you!

Your imagination is the single most important tool you have in your daily fight to be free. It is the source of every act of liberation you will ever need to pull off.

But how can your imagination flourish--how can it dream up scenarios that energize you to create your own version of heaven on earth--if you are forever deluged by dazzling psychic toxins that sting and sap and wound your lust for life?

Too many of our brothers and sisters have fallen victim. Their swarming terraforming always-morning brainstormers have been cruelly fooled into acting as if their deepest desires are impossible lies. As a result they live incoherent lives corroded by chronic anxiety.

I for one am no longer willing to tolerate the epidemic obsession with big bad nasty things and flashy trite empty-hearted things. I say it's time for us to re-consecrate and regenerate and lubricate and liberate and take back our imaginations. (& then the demands.... : )



“Ultimately, we must learn to trust ourselves. When we do this intimately and intelligently, the world opens full of meaning before us. We find that we ourselves are the doorway to a fathomless understanding of the source of life itself. We need only to learn to walk through it.”

– James Thornton

Cancer story


I have been thinking this morning about a story a man told me yesterday. He is a regular at work who comes in frequently for wheatgrass. He's an older man.. I think he said he was in his 70s, but he doesn't look like it.. at all! & he has a young spirit. By that I don't mean old soul.. but, I am getting off track. ok, so.. this man was diagnosed with cancer 11 years ago - colon cancer..and it was bad. The doctors said he was going to need to have his intestines cut out and wear a bag. ..and this man thought to himself that he didn't want to go around in life like that.. and he was determined to fight it. He joined a support group and found out lots about it.. started learning alternative strategies of healing. He told me about this thing he used to do a lot.. he described the game kids used to play where one round ball went around eating other ones - Pac-Man.. and said he imagined this was in his body.. and actually visualized the white blood cells in his body being like the Pac man.. (think I have this right - I have never played the game - work with me here) ..and when they go through his blood, the white blood cells expand, they can do that and go around and eat the cancer cells in his blood. He said he would do this every night before he went to sleep, while lying in bed.. and sometimes in the day.. if he was just waiting for something or had a quiet time he would visualize this. He also talked about how a bird would eat a worm and visualized this also.. that there were birds inside of him, in his blood, eating the cancer.. he would actually visualize the birds digesting it and completely transforming and getting rid of the cancer, cleaning his blood.

Like I mentioned earlier, he tried lots of alternative healing methods and says he can not be sure what it was that actually healed him ..but one day he said he just knew it was gone. And he told someone that it - the cancer- was not in his body any more and they were skeptical. ..but soon he had a doctors appointment and the doctors couldn't find any trace of cancer in his body. His doctor took him aside and told him that Western medicine did not teach him how to deal with or treat people like him an he was not sure what to tell him to do.

The cancer has never returned.

ps. He also told me that after this he stopped going to the support groups because he remembers going and telling someone about how his cancer disappeared and the look on this persons face.. like, how is it possible that you did this.. but it was a look of discouragement instead of encouragement.. and because of the look on this mans face he just couldn't bring himself to go back.
Despite this I still felt a need to tell the story.
Food is powerful, wheatgrass and sprouts are amazing foods..
but visualization is a powerful tool also.

Have a powerful day!

Shinoussa sea veg, Frequensea, Notes from the Universe, Amathing story and Music and Life by Alan Watts

Good Morning!
I have been drinking almost the same green smoothie for the past 3 days.. only the greens have changed. This morning mine has spinach, beet leaves, pea green sprouts and banana, pineapple, pear. & a new raw sea vegetable powder blend I got at the Secret expo. Its called Shinoussa from Quantum Nutrition. I met and talked to the guy who developed the product and it looks pretty good - contains Irish moss, spirulina, chlorella, dulse, red algae and flax seed.

We still have some stock of E3Live at work, not selling it by the bottle or anything.. Mi-San calls it her lifeline. .but its getting low. So at home I am taking this and have a couple bottles of Frequensea also on the go.

I have just signed on to get Notes from the Universe delivered to my inbox every morning. A friend of mine was getting them & they were so relevant to him that we decided that I should sign up also just to see if they were personally written to him. Now, of course, they generate millions of them, so, onbviously not. But, I had heard of this before & had meant to sign up anyway.
I really liked this mornings:

First, as a child, it seems like the entire world is there for you and you rush to drink from its every cup, sometimes wondering to yourself how anything could ever be more fun.

Then, as you grow older, if you're observant, you realize much of what you enjoy was made possible by the contributions, work, and labor of those who came before you, and you're taken aback, disappointed even , because with maturity you can now see cracks in the façades, imperfections in the details, and 10,000 ways it could have all been done better.

At which point, folks typically choose one of two paths: Spend a lifetime lamenting how far from perfect things are. Or, to one degree or another, roll up their sleeves and pitch in.

And should they choose the latter with gusto, dear Robin, they will come to know, to the core of their sacred being, that the differences they might make in the world cannot be made by another. And then they will discover the answer to their often-wondered childhood question.... That the most fun one can have in time and space comes from making such a difference, and that the joy derived from serving is 10,000 times that of being served.

At your service -
The Universe

I also got another great story in my inbox this morning from my friend Noah, who will be starting his own blog soon. sharing this one also... This one was from a friend of his who was volunteering at the Fringe festival in Calgary:

"At the last Fringe board meeting, Anne-Marie told a story about a mentally-challenged girl that worked with her in the past. Everything this girl did, she would let Anne-Marie know that she had done it and then follow up with 'And you know what else? I'm amathing'.
Anne-Marie shared that she would announce her amathingness after everything from completing a work task to getting a bottle of rootbeer for herself. She also shared that it didn't matter to this girl if anyone else told her she was amazing/amathing - she didn't need anyone else's affirmations - she already know she was amathing.
We talked about how cool it would be to go through life re-affirming our own amathingness at every opportunity - instead of waiting for other people to do it for us...and always knowing with our whole beings that we are indeed amathing.
I've been sharing and affirming my being amathing now for about a week, and I am amathed (although I shouldn't be) at how amathingly wonderful I have been feeling.
I'm smiling more, I am happier, little things aren't bothering me, I feel more self-love.
As I bask in my amathingness, I am empowered.
So there you have it...
And you know what else? I'm amathing...."


I will definitely post when Noahs blog debuts! Noah is into some very interesting things. He is hosting an Arcturians multi-media event coming soon.. but thats a whole blog in itself - coming soon!!!


ok, so what is this little French tomatillo doing on my blog?
Well, this one is for Luke. Trefor, our photographer, took this pic. for us. I told Luke I would post it & he is going to put it on his facebook. This guy showed up in our basket of pears - the most delicious pears int he world - 3 huge baskets of them!!! but we found this tiny guy & were playing with him while we cut up the pears.
Someone asked if we were going to eat him... Luke says 'No, yuck, he smokes!!!' lol
Anyway, this is a personal one - I just crack up looking at the pic! think it's a had-to-be-there thing. lol
..But I am glad you're here... Your amathing!!!!


& now a video.. just for fun. Another friend - a very special friend - sent me this..

- Oh, and a huge shout-out to my fav EmC ..who just celebrated his birthday!!!!

Live life. Love Life, Celebrate Everyday!!! ~ and Big Hugs out to everyone!~

We know everything and everything is perfect just the way it is.

I just found out last night that a close family member has leukemia. I called a good friend the day before - one who I don't see often these days, and he was waiting for a biopsy. These flowers & my love and deepest care go out to them.

..& to everyone out there struggling with health concerns. I talked to a woman who was in yesterday with stage 4 breast cancer. She touches my heart deeply also.

I went raw when my sister-in-law had breast cancer.

I had so many things that I was going to come here & write..and now I feel in this very deep, reverent mood.







Everything can wait. & really you know and I know everything already.


My friend brought his Osho cards yesterday. I picked one and got Celebration. It was a great card.. and I was so happy because the 3 times prior, for 3 days straight, I had gotten the Control card. (Which is my least favorite card - but that tells you something right there, lol) So after I finally got this card I was so happy.. I looked at the cards around it, top card, bottom card.. where is it? .. the control card.. it was just not there anymore. I was so happy, that I wanted to celebrate! lol

Today I got the Turning In card.
Go here to get yours - just one card.


Turning In

Turning inwards is not a turning at all. Going inwards is not a going at all. Turning inwards simply means that you have been running after this desire and that, and you have been running and running and you have been coming again and again to frustration.That each desire brings misery, that there is no fulfillment through desire. That you never reach anywhere, that contentment is impossible. Seeing this truth, that running after desires takes you nowhere, you stop. Not that you make any effort to stop. If you make any effort to stop it is again running, in a subtle way. You are still desiring--maybe now it is desirelessness that you desire. If you are making an effort to go in, you are still going out. Any effort can only take you out, outwards. All journeys are outward journeys, there is no inward journey. How can you journey inwards? You are already there, there is no point in going. When going stops, journeying disappears; when desiring is no more clouding your mind, you are in. This is called turning in. But it is not a turning at all, it is simply not going out.

Osho This Very Body The Buddha Chapter 9

Everything is exactly as it is supposed to be. I think God is wise enough to arrange that one.
Enjoy every minute - even the ones you don't get.

I love you.

What is good for the world - and cool clothes and warm and fuzzy days!


"We've lived by the assumption that what was good for us would be good for the world. We've been wrong. We must change our lives so that it will be possible to live by the contrary assumption that what is good for the world will be good for us. That requires that we make the effort to know the world and learn what is good for it. We must learn to cooperate in its processes and to yield to its limits. But even more important, we must learn to acknowledge that the creation is full of mystery. We will never clearly understand it. We must abandon arrogance and stand in awe. We must recover the sense of the majesty of the creation and the ability to be worshipful in its presence. For it is only on the condition of humility and reverence before the world that our species will be able to remain in it."

— Wendell Berry


I am feeling sooo much better today. The shopping trip helped. & twice to the gym, I have been going so much lately.. in the morning there was a yoga class which I just made - Just remembered after writing yesterday's post - & I love Glory's yoga classes! I was so relaxed after - so I waited and then went again last night after dinner for a weight/cardio session.

I bought the funkiest khaki green converse high tops with pockets and lots of cool knee-high socks. what fun!! (& clothes to go with them!! yay!) Cool clothes are almost as much fun as cool music!

It's raining outside. But I am having a warm & fuzzy day - I am creating that for myself!
Sending you out warm and fuzzy beams of creative radiance and groovy puffs of swirling mind-expanding star-burst energy ...and lots and lots, endless miles, of the deepest peace, still water deepest peace, deeper than you have ever known. Lalalala, and a song. ..a really good one, but not one sung by me. lol
Have a happy, happy, warm & fuzzy day!!! xo

Think Holistic, Past Lives - living our life purpose and flowing in wonder

I am reading articles from the Think Holistic website. It's very interesting. I found this website amongst a pile of papers picked up & collected at the Secret expo.

Many of those who know me well and are close to me in real life are a little concerned. ..maybe esp my Mom.
My general nature is happy, positive and fun .. maybe even slightly wacky, quirky and a little on the out-there side.
But lately I have been more reflective, often sad. I mean I live in the bliss state for most of the time.. but I have some big concerns which are weighing heavily on me lately where usually I can just pass them off and float around..
Its kind of like the sad is more sad and the fun is more fun..
..and everything is a lot more meaningful.
I feel like I kind of woke up a bit from the ayahuasca ceremony. ..and have gotten a big slap on the side of the head from the Akashic Record consultation ..and then my other therapies and influences.
Whether this is good or bad, I don't know. But I know I can't go back to where I was.
I am a raw foodist living in a cooked mainstream household.. and more - extremely diverse energies going on here.
I wonder what it is in me that attracts certain people - alcoholics and very controlling people. Of course, on the upside I have extremely creative and fun people in my life also.. and they are the majority. wayyyy!!!!!!
I really am blessed, I have some of the best people in the world around me - I know this!

Scorpio Horoscope - Your increased mental prowess comes from carefully thinking through all the details surrounding the most important issues of the day. Although you are attracted to the simplest solution now, it may not be the best one. The situation is likely quite complex, so don't be afraid of revealing your inner process. Speak your mind carefully and stick with the facts as you know them.

I love this pic. I may have posted it before, a long time ago. Not sure why I love it so much. I think I was Japanese in a past life.

In the main past lifetime I visited recently - I was East Indian - I have so many theories/stories about past lives I have lived, but this one was totally new to me. It was kind of sad & actually explained the controlling aspect I face a bit.

oh, and actually I had another lifetime I visited which explains the alcoholism thing in my life also.

I just read this article on past lives from the website I mentioned above. very interesting!

I had a cd given to me from someone at work a couple days ago - Guided Meditations - Experience your own Past Lives. I haven't listened to it yet.

I fell asleep with my headphones on in bed listening to the SuccessUltraNow cd I have.
I haven't spend as much time with this cd as I had planned - time to revisit it.

from the SUN website:
This stress is a foundation of human disease. It is the consequence of not living our life purpose.
..
As the situation in the modern world intensifies many of us are awakening to the fact that we are ALL responsible for what is manifesting in our reality. It takes a superhuman effort of will to keep the mind and senses attuned to wonder when what we may be witnessing is frightening and indeed horrific.

The antidote to “evil” is inside us all and is the superhero’s magic potion. When fully imbibed, ordinariness is super-ceded by extra-ordinariness and the perceiver of the problem becomes the embodiment of the solution.

But now, I have spent too much time thinking and need to go live and watch and see what comes to me. I know that everything I need will.. and I just need to go with the flow.. consciously.

& I need some more superfood squares, a good workout at the gym, & to go buy new cool boots .. I am a shoe person now for awhile. I have dark reddish-purple hair now also! Its just a wash-out.. fun!

Have a wonderful swirling cosmic energy day filled with radiating, glistening wonder and magic.
Sending out kaleidoscopic swirls of love to each & every one of you!
*I love you!*
