Excitement in the hood last night! I was driving out and saw a half dozen cars on the next street over, plainclothes 5-0 stepping out, guns drawn and going into a home on Vantage. I turned my car around and an unmarked car is instantly at my side, officer out, gun drawn, asking me to show my hands. “Why’d you turn around?” he asked. Because I just want to go to the store, not a gunfight at the O.K. Corrall.
I posted it on Facebook and got some hilarious comments. Continue reading
Many psychics and channellers read the astral plane, so when they give you info, that’s usually where it’s coming from. That’s often how they can pull out of your mind a thought you’ve been having. That’s also why they are so often wrong with their predictions. Think of the astral plane as the next thought-plane up from our awakened plane of consciousness. What does that mean? That means that every thought and feeling — and thoughts about feelings — that everyone on the planet has gets deposited in there, good, bad, indifferent, as well as our dreams, fantasies, wishes, visualizations, recollections. So when we have an intuitive thought or feeling, this is the database we encounter. Continue reading
A man was found on a desert island alone and had three huts. The folks who found him asked, why three huts? He said the first hut is my home, a man needs someplace to call his own. The second hut is my church. I’m very religious. I don’t go to bars or nightclubs. When church is open, I’m there. So they asked, what is third hut? That’s my old church, he said, we had trouble there and had to leave.
There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror,
And noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
“Well,” she said, “I think I’ll braid my hair today.”
So she did and she had a wonderful day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror
And saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
“H-M-M,” she said, “I think I’ll part my hair down the middle today.”
So she did and she had a grand day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and noticed
That she had only one hair on her head.
“Well,” she said, “today I’m going to wear my hair in a pony tail.”
So she did, and she had a fun, fun day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror and
Noticed that there wasn’t a single hair on her head.
“YAY!” she exclaimed. “I don’t have to fix my hair today!”
Attitude is everything.
They way you know whether you are part of a problem or part of the solution of a problem is how you feel about it. If you feel hopeful, if you feel things are under control, if you feel God/the Universe has a handle on what’s going on and is even now formulating solutions, then you are part of the solution. If you find others feeling angry, sad, desperate, hopeless and vulnerable, and you try to point them in the direction of better feeling thoughts and useful activity, then you are part of the solution. If you feel upset or angry or anxious over “bad news,” if you pass on bad news links on Facebook and forward them by email, you’re simply adding your friends to a chain of pain they may not otherwise be involved in. So, when you think about, well, anything, how do you feel? Are you part of the solution? Or do you need to change your focus to become part of the solution? As Louise Hay says, “As hopeless as any situation feels, it’s really only your thoughts that you’re dealing with. And you have the power to change those.”
Yesterday I went to my Doctor of Oriental Medicine and Acupuncture Physician pal David Rindge to get my paws lasered again. Last week’s initial lasering took 90% of the pain away. I’ll do it a few times this week for good measure. Laser therapy is really amazing for carpal tunnel, I never had the surgery and do not need it now that I can laser when it flares up once or twice a year. Dr. Rindge used laser needle acupuncture on me yesterday, which supplies radiation via optical fibers – it was very sci-fi. I believe that visualization can enhance any kind of physical treatment, so I did a visualization for the 15 minutes I was hooked up, visualizing myself being connected to God’s healing light, and it coursing all through my body. It was very cool. You can research David’s site to see what laser therapy can do for your particular ailment. Here’s a partial list of what laser therapy is good for: It includes Acne · Alopecia · Arteriosclerosis · Arthritis · Asthma · Back Pain · CP · Dental · Diabetes · Fibromyalgia · Headaches/Migraine · Hearing Disorders · Herpes · Hypertension · Pain · Respiratory Disorders · Scars · Skin Disorders · Sports Injuries · Tendonitis · Tinnitus · Wound Healing. David Rindge has 35 years as a Doctor of Oriental Medicine and Acupuncture Physician. He worked wonders with my carpal tunnel. He’s now retired.

I just got a typical email that I often get from speakers and teachers. They send me a press release about an event and they want me to interview them to let Horizons readers know all about the amazing, life transforming work they do. The problem with this is that some of them are really wonderful teachers with valuable info to share. Some are not. I don’t know everyone’s work. As a publisher, what I need them to know is that if they want to be promoted in Horizons Magazine, they purchase a listing. Other publications will run their press release for free, but I don’t do that for editorial content. I have years worth of articles waiting to go in, articles that give valuable info and techniques for life changing transformation, without trying to convince someone they need yet another workshop. One friend is even convinced he has met Jesus who is currently teaching under another name. What would Jesus do? He’d pay for his ad.
A client just emailed me her horror story with a web designer who took many months, charged her thousands and left her with no notes and a lot of unanswered questions. I referred the designer to her and was promised he knew what he was doing. He’s a friend I love but cannot refer anyone else to him. If anyone asks me for a reference about him, I have to tell them my experience.
The bottom line is, do not over commit yourself. Do not take on the karma of charging someone for something you are just learning yourself. I could have done her a site for about $300. This is a client on disability with very little income. Don’t take on the karma of that. It will come back to you 20 years down the road when you can least afford it. No, I am not suggesting you hire me to design your website, I’m saying get it in writing what they will do for you and what it will cost before you begin. Have a schedule of what will be paid upon completion of what stage of the work. Make sure you ALSO get all instructions in writing, so when this person disappears, you can do the work yourself. Make sure the site is fully operational before you pay the last payment. I have had a dozen well meaning friends over the past 10 years advertise to be website designers because they paired up with someone who told them they’d do the work, and it was a horror each time – overcharging – not getting work done – friendships lost. It’s not worth it. You either do what you know or you do something else. Please.

When I woke up Sunday morning, I took a drive south of US1, then est across the Wabasso Causeway (US hwy 510) and then north on AIA along the beaches. I left early and I wasn’t sure what i was going to do, so I brought beach gear and had my swimsuit on under black jeans and my favorite oversized black Walmart man’s shirt. As I drove east across Valkyria Road to get to US 1, I saw about a dozen bikers cycling in the road. I thought what a beautiful bike ride Valkyria Road is. I gave them each a wide berth, since there was no one else on the road but us each time. As I came across the Wabasso Causeway and the bridge over Orchid Island, I looked down into the Indian River Lagoon and saw the morning boaters coming out. As I got to AIA, I stopped for a quick look at Wabasso Beach at the end of Hwy 510, then headed north. Continue reading
Last night I felt like I could use some socializing, but by the time I showered and washed my hair, I didn’t feel like driving out. Since I had the rare night to myself, I opted to stay in. I’d spent the day working on the October Horizons Magazine and, although I’d been talking with advertisers and publicists, I wanted some friendly interaction with people I actually know. Or kind of know. I turned to Facebook and posted: Hey, let’s all tell a story! Write a few lines, picking up where the one before you left off. I got a long thread of great comments and the story went on for over an hour. This is one reason I love Facebook. I felt I was sitting around a campfire with my friends telling a goofy story. It felt very companionable. Here’s the story: Continue reading
