From this moment on, no matter what has happened in the past between us or to us, individually or together, I seek harmony and well-being.

From this moment on, every word I say and every action I take will be motivated by love and will reflect to my partner that I seek harmony in my life.

From this moment on, I will not speak or act before first asking myself if what I am about to say or do will bring harmony or cause conflict. Continue reading →

“Sometimes love finds you when it’s ready and when you’re ready too. How that happens is anybody’s guess. Love is the great mystery stew, its secrets well kept, its ingredients known to providence alone. While both people are being prepared, marinated, skewered, cooked to readiness in the fires of life, the cosmic alchemist is turning the pot, reverently preparing the base for the lovers who will meld into it. Only God knows when the stew is ready to be served. Divine timing.” Jeff Brown
Andrea says in the meantime, fall in love with everything around you, everyone around you, don’t make the mistake of waiting for just one person who will love you back. That you love is what matters. That you love.

I don’t think anyone sets out to be harmful or hateful or selfish. I think in their perception that they need to fight to survive in a loveless world of limited resources, they don’t notice the casualities left in their wake. That’s a sad, small world to live in.  They deserve our Love and prayers as much as anyone.  There but for the grace of God and Guru go all of us.

I love how the Universe talks to me through even inanimate objects, like the parking meters at the boardwalk.  Friday night, I couldn’t get the meter to register taking my coins.  I thought it was because it was after 9:00pm. Today I found a spot right in front of Starbucks and, out of quarters, began feeding nickels and dimes.  The meter did not register the coins.  Hmmm.  I drove to another spot, another meter.  Same thing.  I had no quarters, so I just left the boardwalk and drove south.  I saw someone pulling out and pulled into their spot.  Score! 45 minutes left on the meter!  I walked down to the shore and watched the tide coming in.

Two days ago I got a friend request from a real life friend that I have been Facebook friends with for years.  I thought it odd but accepted it. Today I got a message from her that was also odd.  She said “… life’s been treating me great cos of the help I got from the Re-elected Government in which a church member told me I wonder if you heard the good news about officer Sean yet?”  WTF? Instant red flag.  I said, “I want to make sure this is you, tell me where we met, ok?  Or name 3 mutual friends we have been in same room with. I’m making sure you’re ___ and not the hacker.” As soon as “she” saw that, I got the message “You cannot reply to this conversation. Either the recipient’s account was disabled or its privacy settings don’t allow replies.” Then I called my friend and she changed her password. Don’t just change your password, if you’ve been hacked.  Report it. Here’s How To Report A Facebook Violation.

Send love to those that seem to cause us harm, as we never know if we had a contract with them to come to earth to seem harsh for us to awaken to our higher potential.  I believe we do not come to earth intending to do harm, however we agree to be placed in situations to help others grow… and those situations may in our perception seem harsh. One example: a mother’s tough love. Eda Pugliese-fey

Last night I sat with friends overlooking the ocean and watching the full moon rise.  There is something about a place where land meets water, especially a giant expanse of it like our Atlantic Ocean. To me it can feel awesome and terrifying at the same time.  In fact, I don’t know how I spent 3 months on a sailboat in 1983.  As we sat and watched the moon rise and drank icey lemon teas, we talked about the things we are ready to release in our lives from the past 28 days.  We do this each full moon.  Full moon rituals are for releasing and purging the things in our lives that no longer serve us, relinquishing suffering involved in hurtful relationships and discharging physical and emotional pains.  The act of sitting with a group of friends with the same focused intent is a powerful practice. You’re casting a powerful spell, releasing the past and beginning fresh with every 28 day cycle of the full moon.  Several in attendance are overcoming health concerns and say our meetings fuel their healing.  I can dig it.  I come away feeling fueled as well.  That’s when I can tell I’m spending time with the right people: I feel fueled by them and so excited about what’s coming next.  I came home across the Wabasso Causeway and then north on US 1 and the rising moon followed me the whole way home.
