For a long time now, I have chosen to forge ahead, and not go back too far and process past events....

On my comics page that I read everyday, my favorite strip is Calvin and Hobbes, and I always read it first. Here is the one posted today:

Hi y'all,

I just woke up from a nap. Not unusual. But I awoke feeling like I had fallen into the bed. And I dreamed! And I remember part of it...only it felt like more than a dream.

I was told to jump a short distance into the air and fall with my entire body in a horizontal position. And when I did, I didn't touch the ground. And if I did a bastardized breast stroke, I moved forward... Good thing I wasn't touching the ground, too, because I "flew" over this little pond, and it was exactly like the plastic-pond, bubbling and gurgling, but there were 3 little alligators in it. And they were snapping like crazy because there was food nearby. I wasn't the food, but I suppose I could have been...anyway, that wasn't the point. As I "hung" in the air, I learned how to use my energy to propel myself, and to push off the earth to go a little higher.

I can't believe this dream. How cool! The thing is, I have a memory of what it feels like to fly and really soar. I don't know how I remember that or from where, but I do. This was different. It was like...slow motion or going backward to remember the beginning...or learning how to fly now and the memory of soaring is from the future.

Woah.

Much Love,

PL, a FABRIC store? EEEEEEEgads!

I had a dream the other night I was driving along and suddenly miles of parked cars were in front of me, I didn't slow down, just willed the car up and was floating over the traffic, with wheels not touching, I still needed to step on the gas to move faster, a really strange one...

the secret of 2012 happiness...

Speaking of religious philosophers, I was listening to Dylan's "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine" this morning driving to work. I was curious, and googled him and read about him. I really liked this youthful prayer that he penned while in the Manichean phase of his life: "Da mihi castitatem et continentiam, sed noli modo." (Grant me chastity and continence, but not yet.)

Yeah, that is his most famous quote. He had issues regarding women. When you return to earth as a woman you will have issues with Saint Augustine because of that.

My presentation at the palliative home went very well this morning. The doors are wide open for me to do my work there. I will be starting by giving treatments to the staff, so that they can experience how it feels, and then, I will be called upon for the patients when someone requests energy work. This morning, I was so nervous, my body shaking and I could hear a deep yell inside of me saying : Noooo! don't talk about it, they will kill us ! To be killed in a palliative home... that would be something. Instead of brushing the voice off, like I usually do, I called it to accompany me. Took a couple of drops of Rescue Remedy, and off I went. I'm really proud of me.

@ Darla: Thank you so much for your kind advice on the beavers. Unfortunately, the trapper was sent and he caught three beavers. I did not have much say in it as it is at my daughter's place (not mine) and the neighbour was at a high risk of flooding, so action had to be now. No time to find a spot, get traps, etc. We had good intentions (my daughter and I) but it was not too realistic. I admit that I regret bringing that energy to the Village...

@Justoneman: I've rolled the dice many times in my life. I get bored easily too, routine is my worst enemy.

stands with arms crossed tapping my foot waiting for an answer...


ahh there we go...


Spirits communicate instantly, and don't slow down to type a reply...

Here is one...my husband lost his daughter when she was two, kidnapped by the mother, an Iranian. Years later found them in Chicago and brought the mother before the court. Then they disappeared again...after he had briefly seen her, accompanied by her attorney, as the court set up a meeting in a McDonalds...even though the settlement ruled father had the right to have access to his daughter. Yet they vanished again, and he living here in Costa Rica, too tired to pursue the matter. Today his daughter turns 27. As every year, he is very down.

Any answer would be amazing...PM is fine.

his X was Iranian...

Doc here,

do not state your position to the family court. State what would be emotionally comforting for the children, like visiting their Dad

do not let anyone, including you base your judgement on an emotional reaction.

The court case happened a long time ago, during the nineties. The whole case plus his later efforts to keep track of his daughter drained him emotionally as well as financially. So there is nothing going on at the moment...no news in years.
I just wondered if Rocky could see her current condition, with those special eyes he has.

@ Rocky

Thanks for bringing Dr. Higgins to Avalon. I was just wondering if the doc would like to join in a conversation with the thread other than as a professional offering his services? As a Villager?
Because that is really the way this thread works...people talking about their own here and now to begin with, and later this can develop into a general conversation, which is fine, too.

But as a question and answer session between a psychologist and patients perhaps it would be better to start a special thread with the appropriate title...
I would then gladly use his services if I see the need to, and I'm sure others would as well. It is not every day that such an opportunity is offered. So thanks again.

he's never been swimming before, so I brought him in to let the water wash over his toes...

I'll have him set up soon, so he can start exploring all of Avalon, I'll help when it is time to get his thread rolling...

I have a friend visiting, top rated doctor in California in Psychology, his name is Doctor Higgins and he is blown away by what is going on here in the village, I'm handing the keyboard over to him... he had no idea there was a forum like Avalon, he has written many books, looks like he will be joining us, if the Mods have any openings...

Hello, This Dr. William Higgins, I type 1 word a minute so please be patient. I'm here.

I send conscious intentions of high frequency energy,
and only the highest and the best for Dr. William Higgins

With heart,
WhiteCrowBlackDeer

Only baby pics, and nothing with eyes clearly visible. What a pity.

well playto, all I know is your WRITTEN communique felt a lot more than that...I got it at a different level, exactly when I needed it. Synchronistical-isiousness--- GRACIAS!!

(I'm pretty sure that sentence violated a majority of the maxims

I love your Donkness. Makes me chuckle.

How is your rabbit Angel?

Little sleepy, busy keeping my babe happy by being cute...she just sent this pic (rough day!):

Can't see the little Angel picture, so I'll add this until it's fixed.
The little Lady tells me that she loves her Daddy..

I don't know. Ha! The only thing I can come up with is that if we all communicated through telepathy, and not verbal, nor written communication, it might possibly successfully fulfill each of the maxims: Quantity, Quality, Relation, and Manner.

When I was about 8 or 9 through tears in my eyes from all the injustices I saw in the world (and at that age I didn't see all that many yet), I proclaimed to my mom that if only we could all be telepathic the world would be a far better place; no one could misunderstand one another and no one could lie. Every single issue on the planet solved.

General question: would you give up the privacy of your mind to achieve this? To become, in operation as well as in source, a single being comprised of all individuals on earth? Fascinating concept, isn't it?

living life as an open book leaves nothing hidden...

who would be hurt?

Bankers, politicians and Jewish slave owners...

I use to sew almost all my own clothes. (Including 3 piece suits and dresses.)
And refurbish and upholster the junky living room set.

Also caned chairs, and built African thumb pianos, (Kalimba) and dulcimers, which were some ways to raise money to help put myself through college and do at home so I didn't have to pay for baby sitting.

Not thriving enterprises.
BUT...I can scratch those off my bucket list.

Interesting, how life is a series of reflections, as I opened for business yesterday (monday), the owner of my shop arrived just ahead of a giant truckload of fabric and proceeded to convert my picture frame shop into a fabric store.

ahhhhhhh - was wondering what's up with that. Never even crossed my mind to stealth around Avalon or anywhere in fact. Strange the concept. But if its an option, then certainly its ok to use it. My fear is not being seen or heard or known, etc. such is the baggage one carries within a savior complex. Thanks for the heads up though.

J_O_VM,

In your opinion, what is the difference between

a) Saviour complex
b) Acting a Martyr
c) Being of service to others

?

Oh, how I miss my safe place, my support system, my family away from family. I am reminded of another time, when all the players and the pieces fell into place, and it was magical. Once in a while some magical mixture falls into place, and it just about kills me when it dissolves.

I wish....I wish....I had people in my physical world who would not raise an eyebrow if I told them about my wings, or who could and would make me feel "normal" for seeing things that other people do not see. I wish....I wish....there was a group of people close by who, no matter the intellectual and personality and cultural and age and geographical and situational differences, could and would feel compassion toward each other, and would be there to share with each other how the mundane appears to change as the Spiritual does.

But....I suppose it is not meant for me right now. This, too, shall pass. Growth comes, ready or not. Usually not.

Here and Now...I took the day off. I have to laugh, looking back at this day, because it looks just like the days I do not take the day off. The difference, I suppose, was giving myself permission to do absolutely nothing.

Hmmm...maybe I should take the day off every day

Here's to everyone having a day off, with Much Love,
