I don’t extend credit to my clients because it empowers them to find the resources to pay on time

I get about a dozen calls a week from companies wanting to handle my debt recovery. I have no business debt. An ad goes in when it’s paid for. A reading is paid for at time of service.  In 21 years I’ve only once had someone NOT pay.  And she still may, I don’t want to take score too soon.  I think paying up front keeps honest people honest and let’s them know that yes, they can come up with the money and not have to rely on credit or loan. It empowers them to have them pay on time.  I’m all about empowering my friends so they can have as happy a life as I have.

I caught my cold just in time, healthy eating helped

It’s midnight and I just came in from outside, where I sat watching that beautiful full moon drift across the sky.  It’s almost directly overhead right now.  I love following the cycles of the moon, it reminds me everything is a cycle and there is order to the Universe.  Although I’ve had a cold the past few days, I feel good. It’s almost like it’s happening to someone else and I get to watch it.  The generic Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and Mucinex (guaifenesin) totally take the sniffles and cough away and catching up on sleep is awesome.  In June 2010 I wrote What I do when I forget what I know that I was five days into a giant head cold before I remembered what to take for it.  I lucked out this time.  I remembered and looked for my blog post about it and sure enough, same symptoms.  I caught it on the first day, and upped my vitamin C and D3.  I know one reason that colds don’t knock me down anymore is that my eating habits have changed.  Bread was my final frontier, the final starchy, processed food I stopped eating daily.  Now I have the occasional bread, pasta, rice crackers or canned soup maybe 2-3 times a month.  Otherwise nothing from a box or package. Mostly I eat vegetables, potatoes, chicken, fish or turkey.  I am convinced that the processed foods clog up the digestive system so it cannot do an efficient job of taking nutrients in from what I eat.  So when I eat lighter, if a head cold comes up, it has a cleaner system to move through so will be over with much quicker.  So far, so good.

You are allowed to have your own story, just keep it truthful

Anytime you interact with someone, what you experience is not necessarily what the other experiences.   Unless you’re both good communicators, you don’t know that.  You are each allowed to tell your story as you see it.   You are allowed to tell what happened to you.  What happened to you is enough – you do not need to embellish the story or make it more than it was.  You also don’t have to take any sh*t for being brave enough to have your say, and to let others know they are not alone in having gone through the same experience.  The truth is its own defense. Stick to it. Otherwise it is slander. And before you allege slander, make sure what you’re doing isn’t barratry.

 

You may have been through it, but you never went beyond it

A Warrior of the Light notices that certain moments repeat themselves.  He often finds himself faced with the same problems and situations as before. He becomes depressed. He begins to think he is incapable of making progress in life, the difficult moments having returned.  ”I’ve already been through this”, he complains to his heart.  ”It is true, you have been through it”, replies the heart. “But you never went beyond it.” The warrior then understands that the repetition of experiences have one single purpose: to teach him that which he has not yet learned. He begins to seek out a new solution for each repeated struggle – until he finds a way of conquering. –Paulo Coelho

Domino wonders why she has no friends, I give her Harry Palmer’s Compassion Exercise

In a reading last night, Domino is having problems with her new man, complaining to her last man (whom she left for the new one) and surprised he’s full of “I told you so.”  Domino doesn’t take criticism well. I’ve known her about 10 years.  She’ll cut friends off when they call her on her stuff, she’ll refuse to discuss to resolve it.  She’ll move from person to person with the same behavior, ignoring the carnage she leaves behind her. She said “You’re the only friend I’ve got.”  I told her, “I’m not your friend.  I would not be friends with someone who would rather cut me off than have a simple, honest conversation about what any concern or conflict might be.”  I told her she lives in a small town and she’s running out of untested candidates.  Her best bet was to go deep inside herself and bring to mind, one at a time, each one she has alienated herself from.  Do the Hawaiian Forgivness Ho’oponopono Process  on them, apologize to them in your mind, tell them you are sorry for your part in the conflict, ask them to forgive you, thank them and tell them you love them.  And mean it.  Only ever wish for anyone else what you wish for yourself.  If she had a problem with any particular person, I told her to do Harry Palmer’s Compassion Exercise until she felt the change wthin her.  She said she’d try it.  Here’s the exercise:   Continue reading

Do you consider yourself a contemplative person?

Do you consider yourself a contemplative person? Do you schedule thought time for particular topics, or just follow what thoughts float up as you have time to sit and ponder?  What are some of the things you would like more time to contemplate in depth?  My early ones were: We are One. It’s ALL related. Forgiveness. Jesus in disguise. Some now are: Allowing without controlling. Discerning when I am in illusion. More dropping of ego and settling into whatever I am to become.

 

 

 

Next time I’ll be sure to schedule thought time to prepave the result I’d like to see

I woke up laughing out loud at myself, recalling a time I’d asked the Universe to liberate me from some elements of a situation. Since I wasn’t clear during my request on how I wanted that to play out, it played out in a way I didn’t expect and that was irksome for all involved.  It was liberation nonetheless, but a few moments’ thought ahead of time would have pre-paved an easier result.  I laugh because I know that, I just didn’t give any conscious thought time to how it would be nice to play out.  I merely thought, “however this needs to happen, please make it move along, get me happily on the other side of it.” Next time I’ll be sure to schedule thought time, no matter how busy I am.

How Abraham-Hicks changed my world

Someone asked me how Abraham-Hicks changed my world. It’s because they use the simplest words to teach how we attract our experience to us. That people, circumstances and events  come to us via our vibration and remain only by our attention to them. We attract to us by virtue of our thoughts and that every subject is two subjects.  We’re either thinking of what we want, and attracting the people and circumstances that evidence that, or we’re attracting people and circumstances we don’t want because we’re focused on things that make us feel resistance. That it’s all related; conflict in one area of your life will be the resistance that holds you back from your dream. Make peace with everyone and everything, right now, right where you are, in this moment. And mean it.

I research to learn about septic systems, I like know what goes on behind the scenes

I hit the floor running today, went to the gym first thing and got a decent workout in, then got home in time for the septic people to call to schedule my tank pump out about 2:00pm, maybe earlier.  Yay, I’m stoked!  Yesterday could not have gone any better. Knowing there was a problem with my septic system, I went online and did much research to determine the types, how they work, and what the equipment looks like underground.  I like knowing what is going on behind the scenes, in the unknown world that always controls the world we see.  It’s always related.
