The people we see around us right now, and the job we have right now, and everything going on in our lives right now are indicators to us as to what we are in vibrational resonance with. You would not be able to see mean grumpy people in front of you unless you were somehow aligning yourself — via focus and attention — to meanness and grumpiness. I saw it for a couple of weeks this month when I was giving attention to a FaceBook local neighbors group. I’d watch everyone get all wound up over differences of opinion by name-calling and bullying and threats. I was only paying attention to it for a couple of weeks but as soon as I stopped reading at the group, I no longer got caught in the crosshairs of anyone else’s conflict. It was back to smooth sailing. It is true, we can make our own heaven in the midst of everyone else’s hell. Oh, that goes for whoever gets in the White House also. Matters not, I call my good life to me by virtue of where I place my attention and my focus.

Happiness can become a personal reality the moment you take your mind off things that you can do nothing about and start noticing the Beauty and the light of life right in front of you.

Angels are watching!!  We had a fun drive over to Orlando today to drop magazines off for the www.IANDS.org near death conference this weekend. A guy in a newer car in front of us lost his left rear tire on 192, it went careening onto the median strip across 3 Lanes of traffic, synchronistically going in between cars  at JUST the perfect time. The driver got off the road safely, narrowly missing a bicyclist who stopped JUST at the last minute. It was a divine dance and we watched it unfold in almost slow motion. This was at 12:30pm lunchtime traffic in Kissimmee, that entire scene was blessed for sure.

“At some point in my life I decided, rightly or wrongly, that there are many situations in this life that I can’t do much about — acts of terrorism, feelings of nationalistic prejudice, Cold War, etc. — so what I should do is concentrate on the situations that my energy can affect.” – Jim Henson

Ya Gotta Learn To Shake It Off. No Matter Who is Elected, No Matter What The Universe Throws My Way, I’ll Make The Best Of It and Be So Strongly The Attractor of My Own Experience That Nothing Less Than Good Times Will Come My Way

One thing I noticed this election season has done which was never so apparent before Facebook because now we can see it in black and white: very many people are eager to have a discussion on controversial issues but cannot seem to do it without name-calling, bullying and harassing those who hold opposing viewpoints. It is like that is the go-to first comment, they do not even ease into it. It’s good to know what’s hidden just below the surface. What is inside us will eat us up if we do not let it out, but we can do it gently as a snail who leaves a little trail or we can just do it like bursting a zit in everyone’s face. I like seeing how people are under pressure.

This week I bought two pairs of white pants. I wore a pair yesterday and then this morning I saw them side by side on the hangers and wondered which I’d worn yesterday. Upon closer inspection I saw grass cuttings and knew which they were. That reminded me since I’m not used to wearing white I need to really pay attention when I am. So this morning on my way into town I stopped at a friend’s house to prune and water. Yep, wearing white pants. I’ve usually got jeans on in the yard so I found myself having to be very careful not to drag the dirty hose across them or get grass stains in the pocket from the pruners. When I wear jeans it doesn’t matter. I can just go at it and get dirty and it doesn’t show.  I found wearing white a good exercise in being mindful what I let touch me and rub off on me. That was a good meditation on many levels.    Continue reading →
