Strange Title, Right?

I wrote it because I have more and more clients come to me who don’t have a clue who they are, or how important they are that they are even allowed to be on this Great Planet in the form that we are.

If we watch enough news we can become very jaded and depressed.  I had a friend tell me that she never read the news. She said she believes if she is supposed to know something, she will be told by someone.  Not a bad theory , considering the New Media is created to control us by our thoughts, and fears.

I can be perfectly happy in the morning when I get up, open the door, feel the beautiful cool breeze that is present now in Texas, and be convinced that I am glad that I am alive.

Then I can turn the morning news on after pouring a hot cup of coffee, and after twenty minutes be either terrified of what I have heard, beacause some country is shooting someone, or bombing somebody, like 911, or some terrible news from CDC saying there is a terrible epiemic coming.

I’ve got to say the Blacklist is one of my favorite shows, and the other night, it reflected on how controlled we might be by all that we choose to believe , and listen.

Someone says Peanut Butter is bad, and has killed “x” number of people.  We immediately quit buying Peanut Butter…But are all of these things true.  We never see lists of names ….we just assume we are being told the truth.  But it , I am sure, drove Peanut Butter’s stock into the toilet.  Everything that happens is Action, and Reaction.And somebody lost a lot of money, and somebody gained a lot.

I’m not saying that some of these things are not important, but I wonder how much is used to persuade us to continue to live in our little bubble and conform like the sheep, and just follow, without being outraged because our Intelligence has been compromised.

I’m not preaching conspiracy, I am only saying how easily we are led into what ever someone wants us to believe. It is because we want to believe that there is someone out there who really cares, and considers our safety in all things. We really want to feel as if there is a greater power than ourselves, watching out for us.

We want to feel like we are worth someone protecting us.

That is where the title of this Blog came in.

I believe there is a whole new generation of people coming into the fact that they are great by merely exisiting .  And because they are great, they can share that greatness with all around them.  They know they are a light, and light is to be shared, not destroyed, or given away. It is something to help lead people from outside of the dark.

When you realize how great you are, and that God has put you here because he gave you a responsibility. It isn’t a free ride, but it is a luxurious one, if you choose to shine that light that is you.

I have a friend “Amy” who lost her life a couple of weeks ago. She was in her early 40’s.  Over 150 people attended her funeral, and the one thing that everyone was saying, is How beautiful and precious she was.  That when you called her name, she always turned around with a beautiful smile, no matter who you were.

What a wonderful legacy she left behind.  I miss her daily, and I miss that wonderful smile.

Each of us have the capability of being more than we believe, and being that pebble that is thrown into the water and reaches far out as the ripples from it touch everything in its path, far away ….

We have a wonderful mind, to use and to analyze, and to create.  None better than the other, only different than the other.

Different points of view, different thoughts, different interpretations.  WE are valuable, each of us, each in our own way, each using the abiltiies.  We are the creators of our Reality.

God does not make mistakes in his creations. He is truly the  Gucci of Heaven. It is like the Designers  in the world, once they create that beautiful gown, no one else is allowed to touch it before it hits the runway, except the model who wears it. It is perfection.  WE are that gown, we are perfection, and our Designer “God” made us perfectly.  It is only us that are allowed to change the design.  So how do we choose to do that?

IT IS DIFFERENT FOR EACH OF US.  BEAUTY IS ALWAYS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER.

I was sitting at the table discussing various things with my friend.  She was stating that her little grandchild was able to Facetime on her cell phone to her grandparents in Asia.

I replied with the following, and she couldn’t understand what I meant.  She was so thrilled by the fact that they could see her grandaughter, that she missed my whole point.

My statement was, “Isn’t it a shame how everything is texts, and technical correspondence?  We are slowly losing the art of the Human touch.  In hopsitals, they hire people to come and hold the babies to help them thrive, and be nurtured, when they don’t have  any mother present.  That is how important it is to touch.

I fear that soon the Human Touch will be obsolete.  And then we become like Robots.  How do we learn to feel after that?

We even break up relationships now via text.  The Human Condition is dissapearing, and slowly being replaced by technology.

We can even slam the door in someone’s face without lifting anything but our hands to type into a text the word “block this caller”.

We are missing the expressions that tell us if someone is reacting to what we are saying.

Does anyone else find this a little scarey?

Humanity is the wonderful Gift God gave us, and he gave it to us with the ability to cry, laugh, touch, hate, love, and all other things that remind us we are not just animals, but a higher species of intellect.

WE ARE TEACHING PEOPLE TO READ A BOOK BUT NOT BE ABLE TO WRITE ONE….SO THIS IS EVOLUTION?

I passed an Apple Store the other morning and saw a line that was at least two hours long.  Every one was spending what little time they are granted in this life time, standing in line waiting for the new Iphone.  This confused me, as I knew that in another few days you would be able to order one online and receive it in a few days.

And yet, there were people willing to give up a couple hours of their life, waiting for something that they didn’t have,  to have just this minute.  Or wait a minute perhaps they did.  Why do people do this? Are we really becoming a world of Instant Gratification?

Is it to show everyone how important they are, that they have something first, like the children in a sandbox wanting the only toy before the other children get it.

Or is it to prove to everyone that they are special? That they can obtain something someone else can’t.

I really don’t get it.  I think about where I want to spend the next two hours and whom I choose  to spend it with.  And I certainly don’t choose to waste it on standing in line.

I hate lines, even in restraunts.  I consider it complete waste of time.  So looking at that line, and seeing it get longer and longer, to obtain something that the 50 people ahead of you are going to own before you do, kind of defeats the purpose of getting it at all.

Does this make sense to anyone other than me?

We each have to accept responsibility for the people we let into our lives, and the things that we do. God isn’t punishing us, he should have that much time, To be responsible for everyones choices. That’s why he gave us Free Will. He said here are the gifts, and here is Free Will . Have at it, see what you can do with it,   Screw it up any way you wish. But you will pay the consequences, not my by choice, but yours.

Once we get it, and accept tha,t and quit blaming God for our misfortunes, then things start to improve in our lives. I accepted that I made a mess of my life a long time ago. I wasn’t a victim, but a willing participant in my life. Making choices along the way, that if I could have undone them, I would have, but I couldn’t.

But the one thing I could do was not to blame God. He didn’t tell me to  make the choices I made,  And when I found love and he died, that was just a part of life. People die, that is the natural flow of things. And although it makes us sad, usually because we beat ourselves over the head about the things we should, or could have done for that person. It is a natural thing, we don’t live forever .

Like I said we are given red lights, but choose to make them pink. We are given the warning signs that someone isn’t right, and yet we forge ahead and then wonder when it goes south, how it happened.

I always say “we are God’s comic book” . He must laugh like hell with the decisions we make and the way we put ourselves into the “victim category.”

Shaking his head, all along saying “ you made the choices, not me.”

We have a very limited time here, and I really believe that no matter how depressed we get here, when that last breath is given to us, we wish we had one more.

A 43 year old friend of mine had a anurisum yesterday at work and was dead by 4:00. She left behind a little three year old boy and a loving husband, who will wake up today and have to tell the little boy why Mommy isn’t helping him get dressed.

That wasn’t her choice, but rather her time to leave. Why,  when she had a life here?  It was her time,  she had done what she could do here. She was a beautiful, kind, sweet person who never found a negative thing in her life.

I wish I could be like her, for she will be remembered for the light she spread and the person she was. But I too have my moments of Pity Parties for myself, and I try then to ask myself, If I had to face God right now, would I ask him why he hurt me so much in this life.?

I don’t think I would choose to say that to the Great Creator, whatever you perceive that to be.  I wouldn’t like the answer he would give, when he said “That was your choice not mine. I gave you roses, and you walked past them and picked up the Weeds.

Whose fault is that? Really?

I, along with a lot of you, saw my grandson leave for college. We all waved him good by and knew that his dreams were just beginning.

But then we all had the realization, that as he was heading for the land of the unknown, he was on his own for the first time. He didn’t have mom , waking him up, pushing him to get out of bed, or to be home by a certain time.  We had let our little fledgling be sent out to the wolves. The only protection he was carrying with him,  was the wisdom we tried so dearly to put in his mind, as he grew. From the time that he took his first steps and fell, to this time we hoped we were doing the right thing. Now hee will now be taking larger steps and falling, and learning to pick himself up,  and keep going forward.

The question is, “How Well did we teach him to pull himself back up, after the fall?”

Did we run over and pick him up and hand him band aids, or did we let him survey the damage, and then find that he had to try to get up again, and this time without too much damage and without help?  The only way he learns how great he can be is to learn who he is, and what he is capabable of in adversity.

The greatest gift we can give a child is the capability of learning that he has power. That he has a brain, to evaluate his situations. He also will pay the consequences of his bad choices, or glean the rewards of the good ones. Hopefully there will be more of the latter.

On his own he will be exposed to the partying, and the other things that freedom has to offer.  Which way he chooses and what direction he goes in,  is all on him now.  I am just glad that no one monitored my past when I went to school.  But I can honestly say the greatest gift my parents gave me was the full knowledge that if I didn’t do well, it was all over, no more money, that they worked hard for and, when I returned home I would be looking for a place to live and a job.

Probably not a cushy job either,  without the education that I was priviledged to be given, and decided to take for granted.

The worst thing that we can do as parents, is evaluate their lives as we evaluate ours. They aren’t us!  they are entities that are individuals, and they were given their own soul.  It didn’t have strings attached to ours. Someday we will no longer be avaialble to them.   We each have our own path, and we each decide how to go down it.  We either go down the rosey path, or the barbed wire one.  But it is a choice that we each in our soul have to make for our journey.

They can’t pack everyting you would like them to take on their journey, they will pack what is comfortable for them.

All we can do is pray, put them in God’s hands, and stand by.

I was watching some children at play the other day, actually one child, my grandson.  He is only two years old and his personality already shows he is a bit of a loner, self entertains , and happy little fellow.

Isn’t it wonderful that at that age, they are just finding out who they are, what they can do, and everything is a new experience.

When he falls down, he just whimpers then gets back up and goes at it again. We should learn from  these children.

They have a courage that we don’t know, because they are not yet subjected to criticism, or given their boundaries. They have no idea that there are restrictions as to what they can accomplish.  They haven’t heard the word “No” enough yet, that it limites their curiosity. Every little turn is a new adventure, and one with hope and laughter, and challenge.

They also, have not learned yet to be afraid of what’s around the corner for them. They just go head long into it to see what will happen.

I think that Fear is the one thing, that as adults, we allow to destroy our future and who we are, and where we can go.

Some of us are more fearful of success than we are of failure, because failure is where we are comfortable. And if we take a chance and succeed, we wonder why we waited so long to go down that road.  And then we feel that somehow we don’t deserve it and we go to self destruct, before we begin.  We self destruct by doubt, by procrastination, etc.

We need to be more like the little children.

I have always said we are Gods comic book. How much do you think he laughs when he sees the stupid ways we waste the moments of life he gave us?

 

Every day day we throw moments away of our life , we act as if life isn’t temporary .   But my friend, it is very temporary.  And no one knows when God is going to reach in his pocket and decide not to be so generous.  When the time comes that he says OK kid.  I’ve had enough it’s over .    And yet we continue to whittle away slowly at the moments and waste them with bigotry,hate,prejudice,etc.

 

We continue to think there will be a forever a tomorrow.

think of how joyous our life would be if every day we woke up we valued each moment, each hour, each day.  If we treated it like we would treat our most valued possession.  Well News Flash it is our most valuable possession.

you and only you decide how happy you will choose to be today.   How will you choose to spend the moments of today, perhaps your last moments on earth.  Someday they will be.  Today four men went to the military recruiting base and because someone who needed to hate took the lives of someone they didn’t even know. What a waste of valuable life.

I will be on Hot 95.7 on Monday August 17, please tuen in and call with your questions.

I look forward to hearing from everyone.

Children!  Wow, how special are they? They were just with the angels, their spirit was celebrating their soon to be arrival, and they bring  that God energy into this world with them.

Sometimes they choose only to stay for a brief while and then they want to go back. It is an agreement they made before they came.  Kind of  like “Been there, done that” and now I want to go home.  Sometimes they have to leave because it just isn’t the right time to arrive, because of the choice or the things that their parents decide to do.

If they were unable to complete their journey in the beginning, I have been told that that soul will still come to that person, either through them, or through someone else in their immediate family. If a soul is meant to join a particular group nothing will stop that.  Sometimes when I do readings I will see a tiny boy or girl standing as if waiting. I will ask the woman in front of me if she ever had a miscarriage or another situaiton regarding pregnancy. and they will usually verify they lost a child or terminated a pregnancy. And the little boy or girl will be standing beside them waiting to come again.

The children born during this century are amazing, they know things, they see things, and they are intuitive. That is because the world is going through changes that only these gifted children will be able to heal.They will be able to see beyond themselves and their own greed or ego. They are coming into this world to create what was intended to be. They are here for the transition that will take place soon.

Some of them can even communicate telepathically. So know when you are looking into their tiny eyes that they understand  more than you can imagine. Remember it was not long ago that we were not aware that they could hear us in the womb. The things we said, and did, would affect how they would be when they were born.  so how much more do we  (Not know?)

Teachers and parents beware. You canot teach this new generation in the same manner as you have taught in the past. They are far ahead of you. What a gift to mankind they are. Our educational system needs to be renovated to be able to keep up with them, so they don’t get bored and give up on education .

Our DNA shows that each person is one of a kind unless you are a twin.  There is not another “you” in this world , so when you arrive, you are the newest model.  There is not another,  and never will be another you. Your DNA proves this. You are like the only pair of Gucci shoes out there, what would you be worth?  Well you are worth that and more. You are priceless in all you do, in every space you take up, and every moment you share in this life. YOU ARE THE GIFT  !!
