    meeradas, I think you should bottle the brook in large size bottles. And sell it on eBay. I'd buy a case. Beautiful share. Thank you.
    My guess is the selling [if not already the bottling] would diminish its properties to a greatly unfavourable extent.
    You're better off finding your nearest brook, and try it out yourself. It's flowing, and it's free [thanks, Mom]!
    - and no prior sunburn is needed

    The kelp is more for mother and baby, who aren't dosing themselves with atomidine, actually. I use a little of the kelp granules that we alredy have as a condiment, occasionally, as I actually like the taste in some dishes. Seeing as the kelp granules have over 2000 % the recommended daily allowance, I'm not especially worried about getting too much with the atomidine, which is 3-400%. Still, good pounts and good advice, mod, IMHO.

    Do you people also feel an unjustified uneasiness and lots of anxiety for no reason at all during these past months?!
    I've been feeling very anxious and i keep looking for what is the reason, but i cant seem to locate any source for this bursting of so much anxiety and confusion... Its like outside everything is the same, but inside this uncomfortable anxiety moves at a very high speed... I've been anxious before in my life, but not like this... so much for so long for no reason! I've heard many theories.. might be the energy upgrade now, might be the galactic area we are approaching at these times.. might be just my anxiety without any relation at all with exterior energies.. but i think its something i never had before like this...

    I would liek to know what if some of you identify with this feelings.

    PC is "broken" unable to start up or "reformat". I've tried to inject atomidine via usb... nothing. Toshiba will restart,easily, the whole program again.
    Google akashic will be "restarted" throug a virtual ritual.
    Still reading Drunvalo's "Serpent of Light".... wow. I can't find a pdf in english.

    Hello Rui,

    I have also had a long period of anxiety due to a traumatic experience 25 years ago and I'm having a lot of anxiety at the moment probably most because of a late Lymedisease for which i'm under treatment. My symptoms started in september and i didn't suspect the disease until March and i was diagnosed 6 days ago. My "normal" life has just stopped and that increases the anxiety of course and i could not very well handle the heavy topics discussed on Avalon, Divine Cosmos and Bring4th so i had a long pause.

    I just started posting again but i think i have to step back once more since i'm too sensitive at the moment and i have a tencdency to take things very personal. I might have a "herx-reaction" to the dying bacteria that makes me worse before i get better.

    Because of this i cannot say whether it's my sickness or the energy shift or both. I can only say you are not alone feeling what you are feeling and personally i find it very difficult to communicate with pple while having an agonyattack or being depressed since this evokes their own fears and they immediately want to "fix" me and give good advices, think positive etc. It's the most difficult thing to just be present, close, accept and let it be. To think of somebody and send healing is perfectly OK though.

    Hope you find the best healing/pple/circumstances where you are.

    Namaste from transiten

    It's tough playing "catch-up" in the village but it's good to see spirits high and so much love for everyone being distributed here. My blessings to all who are having problems and symptoms of Ascension. I won't go into that since it's too much of a live wire topic, it seems, except to say that due to huge Solar Flares, loaded down with Adamantine Particles (believe it or not) we are each and every one of us feeling the pressures of unconditional love being beamed to us day and night and in all the spaces in between, as each must be opened to full consciousness or else....Just breathe deeply and give in to love...

    These blessings are flowing in such huge amounts as to awaken all those sleeping ~ and it's an incredibly big job to do this, as we are all witnessing on most of the forums. There is a lot of resistance to new ideas from those locked in the Fear Matrix who cannot seem to find their way to pure and unadulterated love. They are objecting all the way HOME but it's okay, we are all headed to the same Source ~ scenic route or not, our choice.

    To me, this explains why so many are huddled closely in the "Here and Now" for safety, comfort, and a sense of well-being. In many forums it's just not being found right now at all. All of these doubts and fears are ~ Subject to Change, of course. Once we all awaken; and it's only going to be a short time now ~ come what may. This choosing of a new Timeline and fully shifting into it. Woo Woo!

    In the village ~ there is a lot of concern over distilled water versus spring ~ live versus dead ~ herbs and things to open your third eye and what a most interesting mix!

    There seems to be a stiffness of joints, but it's mainly coming from our own inflexible mind-sets and attitudes more than anything else. Some have such a grip on their own lives, we are simply strangling ourselves and need to "release" this death grip along with our old wishes for total control. We need to go with the flow. Release. Release. Release. Before I came to the forest, I had a bunch of symptoms myself. Issues and medications. All have vanished one-by-one now as not needed.

    Question is: Can we release the old stuff? ~ That's the only real question and when?

    So ~ in my "Here and Now" ~ about two weeks ago, in separate incidents, two of my grandchildren came to visit me in the wild & wonderful forests of Sandpoint, Idaho. Nick (28 years old from Washington State nearby) and Kathryn or Kat (17 yrs old from California) and it's been lovely getting reacquainted with them. Each has their own story but the forest is a healing place, close to Mother Earth and all who come here ~ do find healing. (When you are having any problems, go touch a tree ; )

    So on this day, it started out with a member of Avalon sending me some bear pictures. We have a little black bear - Yogi, who shares space with us (see him in "Welcome to Our Forest"). He is attracted and loves us for our cat food in the garage but Yogi has now grown too big to fit under the 5" we leave open for our cats to come and go.

    Yogi came out of hibernation this year, very thin, still small and not much larger than when last we saw him prior to onset of Winter. So he's back and announced his arrival by coming up on our second story deck near the living room looking for food. Our two dogs, Buddy and Bandit scared him away with their barking but my husband, Harry, nearly had a heart attack to see Yogi staring at him through the sliding glass door, near enough to touch.

    So all parties are pretty shocked seeing each other and Yogi is finally discouraged and leaves the second story deck by climbing over the little gate again and heads for the garage to attempt entry there. It's a lot easier entry without the noise and threat of the dogs.

    Earlier, Nick and Kat found a broken bracket in the garage door opener, so I was concerned that if left hungry, Yogi might attempt to remove the rest of the door and it's hinges that we now have immobilized before it fell off the rest of the way by itself.

    So I am thinking quickly of what offering could be made to discourage further attempts on the garage door and came up with PEANUT BUTTER. And now from my third floor balcony, I throw some beautiful slices of shepherder's bread in a sack and half a big jar of peanut butter to give our boy, Yogi, a bribe to stay away from the garage and the 20 lb sacks of cat food and hey, it works. He has to work for it but he is fully distracted for the night. Whew!

    Next morning, I wake up to find our Crow, who I call my "heralding" crow down on the lawn below and as I watch, he finds the mostly empty jar and it's still got some yummy left on it ~ so he tries to fly off with it. Not so dumb this crow. He's going to drag it home if necessary. But then all our cats take an interest right away at this spectacle, so Mr. Crow flies away without his treasure. I would, too, if I were him.

    A little after this, as I watch, two deer find it later that afternoon. By then, Celtman has sent me fun pictures of another black bear not Yogi climbing a rope to get to a bird feeder and I begin making a video of it ~ since my family and grandchildren all know about Yogi and this bear looks just like him. I am just so happy doing this video.

    And I am feeling joyous playing around working on this video and I'm getting together images of the two deer, one who is eating and licking the remains of Yogi's peanut butter when suddenly I notice my heralding crow is doing this whole urgent show in front of my big windows. He is "harking" something important ~ I have no idea what it's about, but I wish to add this big, huge crow with his impressive ~ wingspan in flight to my video, so I jump up and go outside to get his picture.

    Once outside on my little deck with camera in hand, I hear a cat crying frantically. I heard nothing from inside the house but it's loud now and I am looking around. To say the least, we have a few cats who might be candidates. Then to my left, I see one of the older cats, Dodger, stuck up on a three-story ledge. He is desperately crying for assistance and I am stumped for a moment about how to get him off such a precarious spot on a little rafter outshoot. Where is Spiderman when you need him?

    Dodger looks at me with great pleading eyes and I start calling "Jenn, Nick, Kat" to see if they have an idea how to bridge the gap that looms before us and Dodger's location. His name is actually "The Artful Dodger" He was a wee short of "artful" at this moment even though he's always seemed to be a roof dweller. Our roof is now made of tin and too slippery to find purchase. Dodger is just plain stuck with a 3-story fall looming up.

    So all this drama is added to my joyous video which now includes a rescue of Dodger by grandson "The Nick" who is our hero of the day. Yes, take a bow, The Nick!

    Life is usually very quiet and serene in my forest but it sure got exciting for one day anyway. Mostly we are still thawing out from a very long Winter in Nardia.

    We often try so hard, we miss the boat entirely in over-thinking, over-analyzing, the answer seems elusive because we bypass our natural healing instincts, our own higher power talking earnestly to us ~ and those gifts are always present but we just drown them out mostly by our own ego/monkey minds. As I stood watching Dodger's dilemma, my mind could NOT see a solution. But Nick's heart found one instead...

    Allow nature and your own body and instincts to heal and you will find well-being has arrived, unexpectedly on your doorstep. Sometimes we try too hard and it ruins everything. Let loose those ties that bind us too tightly...and circumstances will intervene and do it for us if we allow things to flow naturally. All is well.

    We need to be kinder to ourselves and just go with the flow. Here ~ watch "The Nick" save a life and be happier to know such things are only a moment away from each of us. Embrace the little joys and bigger ones follow...

    Love you guys so much! Group hug! Group hug! Group hug! We journey on together and guess what? We are almost there. Time to hold hands and gather a little closer together for strength and comfort for the "Grand Finale Show of Wonders" and embrace our new vista ~ one filled with love, sharing and joyous intent.

    Let's concentrate and allow for abundance! Be open to it. All things are possible right now, so imagine great things and they will manifest. Much love to all! xoxoxoxox



    For those who missed Yogi, here he is from last year. I just love this guy but from afar. You can see how small he really is when he's by the chair and BBQ:

    Ep 6:12: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Even so, let your light shine and keep it real...

    A beautiful morning on the mtn. No wind. The last couple of days have been windy.
    White Tail has been enjoying the morning sunshine and is ready to be with his sister.
    His stitches come out tomorrow.

    I completely stopped any intake of meat in December of last year. My muscles and joints had ached for most of my life and sometimes had trouble with range of motion.
    About a month after not eating any meat my muscles and joints completely stopped hurting and all inflammation was gone.
    I didn't place any expectations on it or on any outcomes. Just lost all desire for it and never really liked it in the first place, always preferring fish, even as a child.
    Growing up with a black Irish Mother who was raised on a farm, meat was a constant at every meal. All of the women in the family can make a mean Irish stew.... I still make the stew minus the meat.
    I can say that 5 months into it I am still pain free and feeling so much better -much lighter.

    Also, I have been doing a lot of research on the benefits of raw organic coconut oil -medical
    researchers are finding that people with Alzheimers (late stage) are having improved cognitive
    and motor skills by daily ingestion of the oil.

    Prayers and love to all.

    Health Benefits of Coconut Oil

    Contents How is Lauric Acid Used Composition of Coconut Oil Hair Care Skin Care Heart Diseases Weight Loss Digestion Healing and Infections Immunity Other Benefits
    The health benefits of coconut oil include hair care, skin care, stress relief, maintaining cholesterol levels, weight loss, increased immunity, proper digestion and metabolism, relief from kidney problems, heart diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, HIV and cancer, dental care, and bone strength. These benefits of coconut oil can be attributed to the presence of lauric acid, capric acid and caprylic acid, and its properties such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, antifungal, antibacterial, soothing, etc.
    How is Lauric Acid Used by our body?

    The human body converts lauric acid into monolaurin which is claimed to help in dealing with viruses and bacteria causing diseases such as herpes, influenza, cytomegalovirus, and even HIV. It helps in fighting harmful bacteria such as listeria monocytogenes and heliobacter pylori, and harmful protozoa such as giardia lamblia. As a result of these various health benefits of coconut oil, though its exact mechanism of action was unknown, it has been extensively used in Ayurveda, the traditional Indian medicinal system. The Coconut Research Center has compiled various references on scientific research done on coconut oil.

    Before we move on to the benefits of coconut oil in detail, let us understand its composition.
    Composition of Coconut Oil:

    Coconut oil consists of more than ninety percent of saturated fats (Don’t panic! First read to the last word. Your opinion may change), with traces of few unsaturated fatty acids, such as monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Virgin Coconut Oil is no different from this. Let us have a bit detailed study of this.

    • The Saturated Fatty Acids: Most of them are Medium Chain Triglycerides, which are supposed to assimilate well. Lauric Acid is the chief contributor, with more than forty percent of the share, followed by Capric Acid, Caprylic Acid, Myristic Acid and Palmitic.
    • The Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids: Linoleic Acid.
    • The Monounsaturated Fatty Acids: Oleic Acid.
    • The Poly-phenols: Gallic Acid, which is phenolic acid. These poly-phenols are supposed to be responsible for the fragrance and the taste of Coconut Oil and Virgin Coconut Oil is rich in these poly-phenols.
    • Certain derivatives of fatty acid like Betaines, Ethanolamide, Ethoxylates, Fatty Esters, Fatty Polysorbates, Monoglycerides and Polyol Esters.
    • Fatty Chlorides, Fatty Alcohol Sulphate and Fatty Alcohol Ether Sulphate, all of which are derivatives of Fatty Alcohols.
    • Vitamin-E and Vitamin K and minerals such as Iron.

    Let us now explore the benefits of coconut oil in detail:

    Hair Care:

    Coconut oil is one of the best natural nutrition for hair. It helps in healthy growth of hair providing them a shiny complexion. Regular massage of the head with coconut oil ensures that your scalp is free of dandruff, lice, and lice eggs, even if your scalp is dry. Coconut oil is extensively used in the Indian sub-continent for hair care. Most of the people in these countries apply coconut oil on their hair daily after bath. It is an excellent conditioner and helps in the re-growth of damaged hair. It also provides the essential proteins required for nourishing damaged hair. It is therefore used as hair care oil and used in manufacturing various conditioners, and dandruff relief creams. Coconut oil is normally applied topically for hair care.


    Skin Care:

    Coconut oil is excellent massage oil for the skin as well. It acts as an effective moisturizer on all types of skins including dry skin. The benefit of coconut oil on the skin is comparable to that of mineral oil. Further, unlike mineral oil, there is no chance of having any adverse side effects on the skin with the application of coconut oil. Coconut oil therefore is a safe solution for preventing dryness and flaking of skin. It also delays wrinkles, and sagging of skin which normally become prominent with age. Coconut oil also helps in treating various skin problems including psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema and other skin infections. Therefore coconut oil forms the basic ingredient of various body care products such as soaps, lotions, creams, etc., used for skin care. Coconut oil also helps in preventing premature aging and degenerative diseases due to its antioxidant properties.
    Heart Diseases:

    There is a misconception spread among many people that coconut oil is not good for the heart. This is because it contains a large quantity of saturated fats. However, coconut oil is beneficial for the heart. It contains about 50% lauric acid, which helps in preventing various heart problems including high cholesterol levels and high blood pressure. The saturated fats present in coconut oil are not harmful as it happens in case of other vegetables oils. It does not lead to increase in LDL levels. It also reduces the incidence of injury in arteries and therefore helps in preventing atherosclerosis.
    Weight Loss

    Coconut oil is very useful in reducing weight. It contains short and medium-chain fatty acids that help in taking off excessive weight. It is also easy to digest and it helps in healthy functioning of the thyroid and enzymes systems. Further, it increases the body metabolism by removing stress on pancreases, thereby burning out more energy and helping obese and overweight people reduce their weight. Hence, people living in tropical coastal areas, who eat coconut oil daily as their primary cooking oil, are normally not fat, obese or overweight.
    Digestion

    Internal use of coconut oil occurs primarily as cooking oil. Coconut oil helps in improving the digestive system and thus prevents various stomach and digestion related problems including irritable bowel syndrome. The saturated fats present in coconut oil have anti microbial properties and help in dealing with various bacteria, fungi, parasites, etc., that cause indigestion. Coconut oil also helps in absorption of other nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and amino acids.
    Immunity:

    Coconut oil is also good for the immune system. It strengthens the immune system as it contains antimicrobial lipids, lauric acid, capric acid and caprylic acid which have antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral properties. The human body converts lauric acid into monolaurin which is claimed to help in dealing with viruses and bacteria causing diseases such as herpes, influenza, cytomegalovirus, and even HIV. It helps in fighting harmful bacteria such as listeria monocytogenes and heliobacter pylori, and harmful protozoa such as giardia lamblia.
    Healing and Infections

    When applied on infections, it forms a chemical layer which protects the infected body part from external dust, air, fungi, bacteria and virus. Coconut oil is most effective on bruises as it speeds up the healing process by repairing damaged tissues.
    Infections: Coconut oil is very effective against a variety of infections due to its antifungal, antiviral, and antibacterial properties. According to the Coconut Research Center, coconut oil kills viruses that cause influenza, measles, hepatitis, herpes, SARS, etc. It also kills bacteria that cause ulcers, throat infections, urinary tract infections, pneumonia, and gonorrhea, etc. Coconut oil is also effective on fungi and yeast that cause candidiasis, ringworm, athlete's foot, thrush, diaper rash, etc.
    Other:

    Liver: The presence of medium chain triglycerides and fatty acids helps in preventing liver diseases as they substances are easily converted into energy when they reach the liver, thus reducing work load on the liver and also preventing accumulation of fat.
    Kidney: Coconut oil helps in preventing kidney and gall bladder diseases. It also helps in dissolving kidney stones.
    Pancreatitis: Coconut oil is also believed to be useful in treating pancreatitis.
    Stress Relief: Coconut oil is very soothing and hence it helps in removing stress. Applying coconut oil to the head followed with a gentle massage helps in removing mental fatigue.
    Diabetes: Coconut oil helps in controlling blood sugar, and improves the secretion of insulin. It also helps in effective utilization of blood glucose, thereby preventing and treating diabetes.
    Bones: As mentioned earlier, coconut oil improves the ability of our body to absorb important minerals. These include calcium and magnesium which are necessary for development of bones. Thus coconut oil is very useful to women who are prone to osteoporosis after middle age.
    Dental Care: Calcium is an important element present in teeth. Since coconut oil facilitates absorption of calcium by the body, it helps in getting strong teeth. Coconut oil also stops tooth decay.
    HIV and Cancer: It is believed that coconut oil plays an instrumental role in reducing viral susceptibility of HIV and cancer patients. Preliminary research has shown indications of the effect of coconut oil on reducing the viral load of HIV patients (Reference).
    Finally, coconut oil is often preferred by athletes and body builders and by those who are dieting. The reason behind this being that coconut oil contains lesser calories than other oils, its fat content is easily converted into energy and it does not lead to accumulation of fat in the heart and arteries. Coconut oil helps in boosting energy and endurance, and enhances the performance of athletes.
    Coconut Oil and Alzheimer's Disease: There are reports of research conducted by Dr. Newport stating that coconut oil is useful for treating Alzheimer's disease. Apart from this there is no scientific evidence or traditional knowledge or coconut oil being used for treating Alzheimer's. It was also not known traditionally that coconut oil helps in the brain function.
    Why is Coconut Oil Solid?: Unlike most other oils, coconut oil has a high melting point - about 24 to 25 degress Celcius or 76-78 Farenheit. Therefore it is solid at room temperature and melts only when the temperatures go high. Hence, if you buy a bottle of coconut oil and find it solid, don't think that there is some problem with it. Coconut oil is like this only. And of course, don't keep it in your refrigerator.
    How to Use Coconut Oil?: If you are using coconut oil for topical purposes, especially hair care, just melt the oil (if it is solid) by keeping the bottle in the sun or warm water. You can also take some coconut oil out and put it in a small bowl and heat the bowl over a flame (do not use microwave). Then take the oil on your palm and apply it to your hair. If you want to use it for internal consumption, simply replace butter or vegetable oils with coconut oil in your recipes. Remember, you need not switch to coconut oil completely, as you will miss the benefits of other oils and dairy products.
    Can I Use Coconut Oil for Cooking?: Yes, in most of the tropical coastal regions, people use coconut oil for coooking.
    I Don't Like the Taste of Coconut Oil. What Should I do?: Try using coconut oil in some different recipe. That may help. If you get nauseated after eating coconut oil, don't force yourself. As it happens with any other food item, your body may be allergic to coconut oil and it is best not to consume it.

    Do you people also feel an unjustified uneasiness and lots of anxiety for no reason at all during these past months?!
    I've been feeling very anxious and i keep looking for what is the reason, but i cant seem to locate any source for this bursting of so much anxiety and confusion... Its like outside everything is the same, but inside this uncomfortable anxiety moves at a very high speed... I've been anxious before in my life, but not like this... so much for so long for no reason! I've heard many theories.. might be the energy upgrade now, might be the galactic area we are approaching at these times.. might be just my anxiety without any relation at all with exterior energies.. but i think its something i never had before like this...

    I would liek to know what if some of you identify with this feelings.

    Well, take care and peace!
    Rui
    Hello Rui, I do identify with this feeling, and I can also state that anxiety has been thick and prevalent around my place, and I must actively be on guard to realize it and act against it. I have a better ability to do this than others in my family, so I must always remain vigilant. If I give it negative energy in return, it amplifies, and encompasses those around me. It has been turbulent lately with work and family, and even tragic. My family suffered a miscarriage recently and a good friend attempted suicide. But the overwhelming source of my personal anxiety has been keeping up with too much alternative and mainstream media, which is rife with sorcery. In my opinion, MSM is withholding information, while the alternative media is just spinning the truth, all dis/misinfo. Just as dangerous as the MSM. If they had their way, we would all either be quaking in our boots at impending doom, or sitting back confident that others are gonna fix everything for us. As it says in "Dune," Fear is the mind killer. And, well, I guess it is the same with apathy.

    One thing that keeps me in high spirits and anxiety free, besides having communion with my good buddy Hanuman and meditating, is realizing how close this world is to actually changing. I think the key is the technology piece. The oil oligarchs can't keep the lid on free energy forever. Not that free energy is the ultimate panacea, but I believe it will be a catalyst that lets the genie out of the bottle. Once enough people realize the extent of the slavery, mind and body, that has been imposed on them, there will be no turning back nor will they accept that reality ever again.

    And one other thing: the thing that gives me chills when I think of it, and fills me with the omnipotent spirit of the creator: My body and those I love can be taken, tortured, murdered, enslaved, imprisoned, poisoned with industrial food, chemtrails, and nuclear fallout, etc., but it doesn't mean anything. I have incarnated on this earth many times, and I will continue to do so until righteousness reigns. Patience, perspective, and understanding is my virtue and tranquility. And beyond that, too, I know that I ultimately exists as one with all. That is my true nature, not this animated amalgamation of water and carbon. It has all already been accomplished, and I sitteth at the right hand of God, along with each of you. We are all One.

    And lastly, in my opinion, that anxiety feeling, which is as heavy as lead at times, is sorcery, and it is amplified by each person that falls prey to it. I'm not being critical, because it happens to me too, frequently. It's impossible to be "on" all the time. Black magic is being performed and one can approach that sorcery with acceptance and understanding, and transmute it with white magic in to love.

    Well, that's my two cents. I wish I had three. Ha! Cheers and love to all!

    Ha! Thanks Calz! Coincidentally, three is my lucky number. I am now fulfilled

    PL, the sentiment is the same for me. I don't know where I would be today if it were not for Purple Lama Day!

    (Edit) P.S. I was hoping this post would roll over and be the first one on page 666. Ha! I wonder who the lucky one will be?

    Hi Darla,
    I've had some neat encounters with animals and love them and my career has placed me in the positions to rescue some. It's easy to see you have a heart for them as well. I would be remiss in not mentioning your help with Yogi might end up causing more concerns. There are still a few options. Fish & Game or another agency/organization to your liking might offer some ways, or search the web and find a resource that resonates with something you would consider. And best wishes to yogi...

    Well I had me another one of those darn expansion moments today conveniently at my lunch break as I was heading for my car for quiet time. My vision, is constantly out now but with a calm and good feeling in my head, weird I know!

    Well I thought I would experiment while I was warping and buzzing so I began to meditate in the car with a simple visualisation that Kindred pointed me towards by way of a post in imagining an ocean of light above your head, drawing it down through the crown and then entering the planet.

    Now, I do not meditate much so this may be a regular phenomena, and I am a little embaressed to share but as I imagined this light flowimg into me I actually felt it! Never felt anything before!

    The embaressing bit is when the light entered my, how shall I put this, my root chakra! Well, this was extraordinary, the words bliss, sensual and ecstatic sprang to mind, I had to open my eyes and cease this activity, I became aware of my outer surroundings amd stopped, my wife would be most interested if she knew this was how I spent my work lunch breaks!!

    So again I implore you good village people, is this also to be expected as a spiritual by product, if so sign me up LOL.

    (sorry if a bit base but just telling it.how it is).

    Blessings
