HEAll my life, I have encountered people who proudly proclaim that they don’t eat “poor little lambs” or “bambies,” and that “this is where I draw the line.”   They hold these animals in such high esteem that they would not sacrifice them for food.  I have often wondered:  Just what are the sentiments we hold for the animals we do eat, or for anything we eat?  Does it make sense that we should only eat that which we despise?  But then, there are also those who feel so bewildered by frogs or snails that they would never-ever consider them as food on their plates…. .  So, should I conclude that people only eat what they find moderately disgusting?  Oh, life is full of puzzles!
It seems to me that we should always hold what we eat in the highest esteem.  Without respect for the fact that we are eating another living entity—regardless whether it is vegetable or animal—we will not be grateful for its sacrifice.  Yet gratitude is what dignifies eating.  It is the spiritual component of an otherwise quite mundane and base activity, and it is this which turn eating into a feast and a celebration of life.  When eating with a mindset of gratitude and respect, our food does not just fill our stomachs, but it also nourishes our soul with joy—naturally!  Without, however, it will only make us tired and probably give us heartburn, indigestion or gout.  This is so because our soul continues to go hungry.  If we eat because we think we must, then eating becomes just another chore.  “Fast food” was born from this attitude, because the faster we get done with a necessary evil, the better.  Or we eat because we have nothing better to do, as a substitute for that better thing we (our hearts and souls) are truly longing for.  Then our bodies will try and show us that we have been looking in the wrong place and that our “solution”—food—or the way we went about it, did not address the real problem.
It is nonsense—even grotesque—to seek to derive pleasure from anything we actually find disgusting, if we really thought about it.  Demeaning the source of our pleasure is to degrade the entire activity and, with it, its effect—for everyone involved.  Eating “with an attitude” squeezes the joy right out of it.  Just think how you feel when your loved ones silently wrote into your job description to prepare and serve food and pick up after then all the time, and then turn around and disrespect you if you actually do!  It is natural to receive gratitude for the joy we want to bring; it should be completely self-understood!  To hope for gratitude and respect for services is just as natural as hoping for joy in life.  When those who have the heart to serve are being demeaned as “only a server,” the sacrifice was in vain:  The giver becomes sad, depressed and sick.  S/he will have less and less joy, love and health to put into the helping activity, while the recipients grow ever more arrogant, greedy and thus devoid of love as well.  Nature is such a giver tour human family, as a whole, just like the mother is in the nuclear family.  Lack of gratitude and respect have been depressing many a loving caregiver, to include our plant and animal kingdoms who so happily give and sacrifice themselves, for each other’s and for our survival and joy.
Meanwhile, in our great land of plenty, we have created an art of turning food into “culinary experiences.”  Some cooks are now “Chefs,” with corresponding clout and pay, while “regular” cooks may still make as little as minimum pay.  Still, there is the vastly unappreciated cook at home.  This new culinary art uses exotic spices and herbs, creates color, texture and temperature diversity on the plate, and much visual appeal to create excitement beyond “the ordinary,” mere physical effect on stimulating glands and the digestive process.  I call many such creations “plate paintings,” for all the effort spent on appearance.  The excitement we seek, beyond all physical aspects of eating, is really joy.  Let us not lose sight of this.  Appreciation for the chef is one thing; yet, without gratitude for the once live ingredients, we are but disguising—mostly from ourselves—our unwillingness to honor sacrifice.  Consumers need be careful to not bring mundane attitudes to the table, as their own mental and emotional input to the meal, while expecting joy in return, else the derived pleasure is not from a healthy, natural source.  The well from which all joy bubbles is an open, loving heart, which is naturally respectful and grateful for all it receives.  Pleasure derived by any other means will have negative side effects, no matter how skillfully the food was crafted and painted on the plate!
Even though we could and should, it is much less likely that we are grateful for a sacrifice from a creature we do not respect.  Some we just disrespect out of arrogance, some because of ignorance.  Others we disrespect for one or more of their characteristics, i.e., looks, smell or lifestyle.  We are what WE EAT, AT LEAST IN PART.  The consumer’s attitude plays one part in the food’s effect; the animal or plant’s plays another.  Yet do animals and plants have “attitudes”?  I’d say, of course they do!  An animal stalking another for prey, a pig anxiously awaiting its trot to be filled or sniffing and digging for truffles…has thoughts and emotions about that.  Those may not necessarily be what we humans would like to infer (e.g., even the most ferocious animal may not feel disrespect for its prey but, rather, engage in joyous, masculine play with a presumed equal), but they are nevertheless a mental/emotional construct we commonly call attitude, in a more or less rudimentary form.  Some creatures are, in fact, much more aggressive than others, whereby plants are obviously the least tense and aggressive.  Why is it that the consumption of unadulterated, fresh berries is perceived as so very satiating and pleasing by most people?  While meditating on this, I discovered that the plant puts its utmost joy and pride into producing its fruit—its purpose for living.  Once, I almost killed very happy lovage plant by clipping its flowering stalks; I had listened to too many gardening books recommending this procedure for plants whose flowers we humans do not desire, in order to redirect strength into the plant and roots.  Instead, however, this plant lost its joye de vivre!  Since then, I have never clipped all of a plant’s flowers again, and my garden remained happy.  There are, in fact, happy and unhappy animals, as well as happy and unhappy plants.  A watermelon specifically bred seedless for human convenience is, in effect,, a castrated creature which has lost some of its most life and joy-giving capacities.  The melon’s flesh is still sweet yet somewhat chalky, and it can certainly not bring us,, mentally and emotionally, that which it itself does not possess—JOY!  Nothing comes from nothing.
 
Religions of different cultures, through the ages, have promoted and inhibited the consumption of certain foods.  The fact that it is religion which advocates these restrictions, should give us a hint that the reasons are more than just physical, e.g., not just the fear of certain physical diseases (like trichinosis from pork).  Those of us who meditate know, from first-hand experience, that the consumption of pork or even beef has a retarding effect on mental, emotional and spiritual uplift, and that there is a difference between the effect of eating happy free-range chickens or even eggs, versus those chickens kept in tiny stalls, without movement and natural interaction with each other.  We eat, physically, for the energy contained in food for our body to keep functioning.  Further, we eat with our entire organism, including the houses of our thoughts and emotions (our mind or soul which are nothing but energy, containing information, since energy = information).  Our minds require different information/energy than our bodies.  From food, information enters our mind  from consuming another organism in its entirety, including its thoughts and emotions.  Knowing this will help investigate and understand the many ill-effects of today’s food and eating habits.  It should also help us select more deliberately, and to eat much more consciously and mind-fully (with our mind engaged) than before.
At this point, let me issue an urgent and most sincere warning regarding toxins, deliberately added medication and drugs in our food, so-called “designer foods” and, specifically, genetically modified food.  Much of what is found in grocery stores today is concocted in chemical laboratories and, in the case of GMO’s, pesticide factories.  They are laden with ingredients that are not—or no longer exactly—food at all.  Just compare the listed ingredients to what we have on our spice racks and in pantries at home!  In case of genetically modified organisms, the dangers are even less obvious, as the plant will show no outward signs of having genetically altered DNA.  The principle guiding the subtle energy realm is like to like, i.e., what we ingest seeks to bind with similar or like materials in our own body.  Therefore, it goes to reason, that we profoundly alter our DNA, over time, in untold ways, by ingesting GMO’s.  Knowing what I know about subtle energies, all of this constitutes an outrageous crime against humanity, which no motive can justify.  We should not spare any effort demanding and stressing the importance of not only clean food, but definitely for real food only.
Still, even more important than what we eat is our attitude--how we eat.  This is so because the more subtle energy permeates all denser energy.  Since attitudes, motivation and intent are energetically more subtle than our physical bodies, those take precedence.  While more subtle, motivation is the stronger energy.  It is said that the Archangel Raphael was walking the earth at one time where he reportedly ate rocks to satisfy his insatiable need for energy in our realm.   The rocks seemed to have vanished at his lips (transformed into pure energy)!  Recognizing our human/divine capacity to co-create by means of our conscious intent, we can uplift any energy/information by the mere act of a blessing!  I have found that, after blessing my food, I eat much less.  The meal is much more satisfying and satiating, in very respect, much sooner.  Another way of “blessing” food is to simply devote the meal to a higher goal, a purpose beyond that of physical sustenance, e.g., to celebrate something.  This purpose might be a wedding, a family gathering, Easter, Christmas, Sunday or, quite simply, the end of a day in dutiful service.  The corresponding mindset makes the meal festive, even if we cannot afford gourmet food.  It turns an otherwise mundane act of eating into a celebration.  Contrarily, even the most creative and expensive gourmet food can become mundane, if used to satisfy mundane reasons, while never quite satisfying us, making us sick and still craving more.  Let us remember that we eat because we want to live!   Therefore, it must be a conscious expression of loving life.  Coupling the act of eating with this full awareness, turns a meal into pure joy.  If we don’t, eating doesn’t make much sense at all, which is why severely depressed individuals lose their appetite completely.  To eat while despising vast aspects of one’s life or life in general, perverts the function of every meal.  Food becomes a substitute for real joy and hence becomes addictive.
 
In America today, few of us remember being actually hungry or starving, at least not for food.  We are much more pre-occupied with dieting than with trying to stay physically alive.  Admittedly, this can change, in a fluctuating economy.  Yet many of us would actually benefit skipping a meal here and there.  If we still sit down at the family table at night or at breakfast, it is, in fact, for a “bigger reason.”  This reason is to celebrate togetherness and being a family.  The function is…to commune!  Every cook knows that, having just finished preparing a meal, s/he cannot relax enough to really taste and enjoy the food.  What makes the meal “a good meal” for the cook, instead, is the knowledge that s/he facilitated communion and joy among those who came together over the meal.  So let me add a few more words for the cook and on food preparation:
 
The cook represents the final element in the eating process, adding energy/information to the meal, next to consumer and ingredient characteristics.  As already stated, a sad (also lowly regarded/paid) cook will cook this sadness as an energetic thumbprint into the food.  In the absence of any other blessing, this becomes the meal’s “blessing” or dedication.  Mindfulness is important in any activity, as it largely contributes to its outcome and effect.  Yet it is particularly important when preparing products which are ingested and intended for other people.  If I sincerely wish for people to relax and rejoice at my party, and if I hold this wish as I am making the preparations, I have been able to observe much more laughter, less “work talk,” and fewer negative sentiments among my party guests.  My dedication can free people up to show more interest in each other and to dare be compassionate…because these are human attributes I treasure and consciously want to promote.  Let me assure you that turning your culinary creations into a manifested wish for yourself andothers (“cooking a wish into the food”) is truly possible, and that this idea, just like the idea of a blessing, is by no means, new:  Perhaps you are familiar with the novel, Like Water for Chocolate, or, more recently, the motion picture, Simply Irresistible.
 
In the 21st century, “wishful thinking” is no longer “just” an idea, if it ever was.  Since the advent of studying subtle energies, there is mounting scientific research into the effects of conscious intentionality.  The Science of Consciousness is among us.  I encourage everyone to find and explore this most fascinating data of our times, just as I encourage you to eat…

​

The name “Oura” caught my attention.  Doesn’t it sound like and remind of quite another term, i.e., “Aura”?  As such, it raises the expectation that it has something to do with the human energy bodies/fields, and that it works in holistic ways to improve wellness, right?  Well, it does NOT.
Instead, it is a piece of BIOHACK technology, “smart” technology, mining data about our bodies and more, pretending it is intended to improve our sleep.  However, it measures our heart rate, blood oxygen levels, breathing rate, brain wave activity, body temperature, whether you drank too much, and even certain hormone levels!  From it, one may (or may not, because the error rate is also great) deduce your menstrual cycle and REM dream phases and hence quality of your sleep. I have been reading through many customer reviews and learned that the evaluation of one’s sleep “quality” differs widely from subjective assessments of having a good night’s sleep.  One also has the impression that the “locator function” can be turned on/off—but can it?  AND IS THE INFO FLOW, INDEED, ONLY ONLY IN ONE DIRECTION, or could, perhaps, information be “smartly” ADDED to the body and thus stimulate certain brain activity, for example?  Even if that’s not happening now, it certainly sounds as if this is a potential use of such technology.
As can be expected from all smart technology, some EMF (blue tooth) radiation does take place, especially with gadgets worn so closely to the body.  Although with this ring, such radiation appears low, and they say you can shut off blue tooth energy pulsing from your ring, sensitive people report side effects like “confusion,” “brain fog” and ill effects on cognitive functioning.  The internet calls this, “NOCEBO” effect, as there allegedly is no basis for such happenings in the materials or radiation levels, at the time those were measured.  “Nocebo” refers to negative effects a person might be expecting and, therefore, has an increased likelihood to actually experience from an “intervention.”  It works in the same way as the “placebo” effect which tends to produce positive effects, even in the absence of an intervention.  What caught my attention was the frequent reference to NOCEBO under product information side effects!  If some degree of “placebo” and “nocebo” ALWAYS happens, with ALL interventions, then why would it warrant special mention here?!  Does the incident of confusion and poor cognitive function actually exceed average occurrence of such effects?
Another reported side effect is that there are people who start obsessing over the data reported by their ring and become depressed about their “poor performance” while asleep, even when they felt they had actually been sleeping well.  Can this lead to OCD and depression, poor self-image, etc.?  Or is there actually something else going on which is not a NOCEBO at all?  Without a doubt, such a ring can be or already is linked to the smart 5G grid in our cities and in the country, it can locate us and provide information about what we are doing, any minute of the day or night.  Surveillance is an evil thing, under any circumstances.  Yet if the name is borrowed from the spiritual arena, this would make it twice as demonic, don’t you think?
 

Prior to the previous solar eclipse over North America in 2017, I really had no opinions about such events.  It was my first.  Following many recommendations at that time to take advantage of the "special energy" during the eclipse, I brought all my jewelry outdoors to "charge" it.  As I found out, however, this jewelry (specifically, the metals) then irritated me so much that I haven't been able to wear it ever since!  I began to research and think much about this.  The answer, to me, is very clear:  These energies are simply NOT positive!  In fact, the absence of light very seldom is.

My experience during the 2017 eclipse was that nature held its breath, even fearfully so.  Not a breeze, not a sound, save some crickets who thought it was nighttime.  No movement or wildlife, not even squirrels.  Gloomy atmosphere foretelling of doom!  I learned later that, historically, civilizations tended to regard solar eclipses as "bad omens."  The gloomy MOOD outside and the strange darkness reminded me of yet another event many years prior, when I witnessed the return of periodic cicadas (which some also call locusts).  I had gone outside to tend to my garden, totally unprepared and then stopped abruptly:  The silence was eerie!  It was ALIVE!  I felt nature being entirely still and, almost trembling....afraid!  It also was dark, although there was no rain in the forecast and all felt gloomy as during the solar eclipse.  And then I saw them, the first ones, hanging at the side of trees in order to dry off, with more and more crawling up everywhere.  Several hours later, I guess the process was complete and the sun emerged again.  And then these critters descended on all the trees, including fruit trees, causing significant damage.  Most interestingly--would you believe it?--2024 marks the return of BOTH, 13-year and 17-year cicadas, SIMULTANEOUSLY!  Be prepared for tremendous tree damage and reduced fruit crops!  The damage of trees can usually be absorbed by a healthy forest.  However, at this time, after decades of toxic spraying in our skies, our forests are already dying, unable to breathe, root systems clogged, and infested with fungi.  Will the cicadas this year finish them off?

When I searched my mind for other, similarly gloomy mood in nature, I remembered an old TV series:  "Tales from the Dark Side," about a world similar to ours, "just not so brightly lit"--remember?  How different the appearance and mood was in these episodes from a starry, moonlit night which would feel perfectly uplifting and inspiring!  I conclude that periods of solar eclipses (and the emergence of periodic cicadas) represent dangerous hours during which creatures from the underworld can enter our realm to then pester us, as cicadas pester trees.  BEWARE!  I would caution people to protect themselves (symbolically) with the "PASSOVER blood of the lamb," marking our doors!  This means we make an energy cross of light over every doorway, while calling upon Christ.  I shall clothe myself with the spirit of Christ and stay mostly indoors during these periods.  Even thereafter, going forward, we need protection more than before.  As I said, solar eclipses may be foretelling great political upheaval and other unfavorable changes.  God bless!

S/He who confuses love with evil intent, will have to experience evil, until it is recognized as such.

Today, I am thinking of one very particular turkey who--through a remarkable visitation--taught me a valuable lesson over twenty years ago.  You know, in the Native American tradition, the turkey is a symbol of "Give-Away," i.e., giving and sharing.

As a busy housewife in a gorgeous house with magnificent gardens and nature, I was in my snow-white kitchen, working away, as always.  Lately, I had become a little tired of the abundant work with house and garden which kept me tied to the property almost non-stop.  That day, occasionally, I was looking out the window above the sink which provided me with a view of a meadow extending to an original farm fence beyond.  A very peculiar turkey sudenly caught my eye.  It wasn't the turkey that was so peculiar but, rather, his behavior.  He was running inside the fence, alongside, back and forth, as if trapped.  He seemed to be getting more and more frantic, although there was plenty of space for him to get out of my garden, either by going underneath or between the wires.  And, what about simply taking flight and go OVER the fence?  I kept watching for some time, but the turkey's behavior didn't change.  "How odd," I thought but had to get ready to leave the house for an appointment in town.

Soon, I was backing out of the garage in order to leave.  Behind me was a turn-around space we had created with a huge do-not-park-sign" painted on it.  I pulled on it to turn around to leave, when I noticed that the same turkey was now on THAT side of the house, again at the fence, running back and fro, as if trapped.  I was shaking my head in disbelief and amazement and started to drive away.  In my rear view mirror, I could then see that the turkey gave up his signalling, stepped right on the "do-not-park-sign" and...flew up high and away.  So he DID know how to fly!  He remembered, or was there something else going on?

On my way into town I kept reminiscing about these strange events and remembered that, when an animal visits you and tries to get your attention, IT IS BRINGING YOU A MESSAGE FROM SPIRIT.  All at once, the message was clear:  The one running back and forth, feeling trapped in my own, self-made glass-palace-prison... was I!  I had forgotten that I once could FLY.  I was reminded of my wings and invited TO FLY AGAIN.  And, like the turkey, I was to go and share myself with the world beyond the confines of this house and property which had become somewhat of a burden to me, tying me down unduely.  Voila.  This was the message and gift from this magnificent bird.

Eventually, I followed the call I received that day which had started a countdown of sorts.  Although I understood that day that I had to do this, leaving that life would still turn out to be the hardest thing I ever had to do.

Mass shootings have been plaguing America. While much of the public discussion focuses on guns and gun control, NRA and 2nd Amendment rights, I was having a few different thoughts, in an attempt to address the larger problem, holistically:

The more our nation spends on armament, police force and on the military, the more militant our youth seems to become.  Our current administration has appropriated a huge new budget for our military, and school shootings increased, and bombs were delivered to political opponents.  The more the military focuses on overkill, on ever deadlier technologies and weaponry, the more individuals will associate weapons with power--perhaps other countries feel the same way and follow suit as well.  America owns an arsenal of death, perhaps second only to Russia.  Available numbers are not conclusive about this.  There are conflicting reports on which country has a larger arsenal of nuclear warheads.  In fact, it's impossible to find out the current status and if real efforts at mutual disarmament are taking place as warranted by the 2010 New START Treaty.  Statistics published by Wikipedia, The Ploughshares Fund, The Federation of American Scientists and The Huffington Post vary as widely as 3,800 to 9,800 warheads in the US currently, with 4,350 to 12,000 owned by Russia, and a total global arsenal from 14,575 to ca. 25,440.  Some say that America and Russia possess comparable numbers of nuclear warheads.  But together, they surely possess more than 90% of the world's nukes.  Since the US once, in 1967,  had as many as 32,040 nukes, it seems to be true that we have made "efforts to reduce nuclear weapons for the last 35 years," as CNN reported on 12/10/18.  

Be this as it may, with only 300 of them, "90 million...would die within the first half hour," and "9,600 nuclear warheads...could instantly massacre 2.88 BILLION people and leave most of the rest slowly dying in a nuclear wasteland.  Isn't this a bit excessive?...asks Lawrence Wittner in his HuffPost Blog on 5/25/2011.  Of course, I haven't even mentioned biological, chemical and weather warfare methods, or the over 1,000 nuclear testing detonations on US soil, with untold, long-lasting, toxic effects.

In summary, America is the most weaponized country on earth, spending more on its military than many other countries combined.  We are also the only country who has used nuclear weapons in warfare--TWICE! 

We the people are mostly unaware of our nation's arsenal and types of weapons, of their reach, power and effect, and WE THE PEOPLE have not been involved in approving any of it.  At the same time, few of us have any idea on how many active wars we are involved in at any given time, how much we contribute to people's dying, suffering and/or being displaced, also when we sell weapons to other countries. I encourage you to view some film footage on the effects of nuclear explosions (soldiers could see, through their closed eyes, the bones in their hands, as they were trying to shield their eyes from the flash, among other effects), or of Nepalm, Agent Orange, and many other gruesome weapons we have employed, aimed at maximum human damage.  All the while, we attempt to raise our children to be peaceful, cooperative and forgiving, disregarding the horrific contradiction between what we preach and what we collectively do or support, directly or indirectly, often due only to non-participation in government and politics.

It helps to remember that children will do as their leaders do, regardless of what those leaders say, and children also tend to affiliate and allign themselves with the most powerful figures they know.   If more of us knew what all is done with our tax dollars to actually guide the world into intimidation via deadly force and power, we would scream!  And by doing so, we'd truly be agents of peace and lead our youth back to the values we espouse, yet which can't be achieved with firepower and weapons built to annihilate life on earth.  

Building weapons in the hope they'd never be used is INSANITY.  The only weapon never used is the one which was never created. If a gun wasn't meant to be fired, we wouldn't have equipped it with a trigger.  There wouldn't be a red telephone or nuclear codes.  And if our youth weren't preoccupied with war, power and destruction, there wouldn't be all the computer games and movies featuring nothing but.

Let us rethink not only what values we wish to pass on to the next generation, but also how we want to teach them, with our behaviors matching our speech.  Last but not least, we must be clear on who is teaching the children.  Whom are they following and imitating, really?  No one with undue firepower can be a good role model for peace and respect for life.

It's a downright miracle that not more people are, in fact, aggressive and militant.  Still, domestic terrorism is on the rise, as are right and left extremists and those who would favor the bombing of North Korea.  What still holds us in check, I believe--by a hair, it seems--is our desire and need to think of ourselves and of our nation as "decent people."  And I do believe that people are, in fact, inherently decent, but also very afraid of "power" ourselves, feeling either insignificant or else willfully ignorant and non-participatory in democratic processes.  If we continue along this road, we will continue to reap what we got:  Ever more aggression and violence.  Our involvement and self-education (or re-education?) is inevitable for the development of a new decency and civility.

If you have read Elana Freeland's books and followed her and Dane Wigington's audio and video reports, like I have, you will probably conclude:

​"IT'S ALL TOO LATE NOW."

Perhaps it is.  But we could still lessen some of our worst suffering--staggering new illnesses and general, mental & physical depletion and dumbing down--if we stood up against such things as 5G technology and smart meters; if we reduced WiFi and cell phone usage; if we got rid of GPS, microwave ovens, surveillance systems and electronic pest control in our houses.  We could be eating organically only, eliminating sugar, fluoridated water and most dairy, and we could eat grass-fed, organically raised meats only, if eating meat at all.  In addition, we can strengthen body, mind and spirit by meditating regularly.  We can choose to stay out of the sun or cover up when outside.  We can omit aerobic, outdoor sports to avoid inhaling more toxins falling from the sky than we absolutely have to.  We can detox regularly, using Chlorella, Zeolite, and Silica.  And we can and should refuse additional vaccines and any pharmaceutical medications, if at all possible.

At this point, no one is offering any real solutions which would stop this world from becoming ever more toxic.  So why do brave advocates continue to talk about the issues of climate engineering, solar radiation management, weather modification programs, morgellons and other biological agents raining on us?  Why do we go on to warn of electromagnetic pollution from technologies, DNA alteration, surveillance programs and efforts of steering all of our bodies and minds externally?  

​Based on my spirit connection and sight, I believe that wide-spread awareness of these happenings will produce understanding and even RELIEF....

WHEN GOD FINALLY INTERVENES.
​

When we are eventually facing a celestial object coming at us from the sky, those of us who have been aware and suffering, will be filled with gratitude instead of fright, because we know that God is stopping anti-life developments on earth which we ourselves were unable to stop.  While many who unwittingly or knowingly participate in the world's demise or are entirely oblivious, will experience panic, we will rejoice instead.  A planetary object with earth-bound course has been sighted since, at least, 1988 or 1989.  But since then, man-made cloud cover has consistently been covering up the huge ozone holes and our sight into vast space.  Or have you seen many stars lately, let alone the Milky Way?  Perhaps one or the other of you remembers how we were glued to the TV for 24 hours,  after the last broadcasted sighting (ca. 1998) , until 10 French scientists were found the next day who refuted the collision course but not the planetary object itself.  I heard nothing further thereafter and--as if mass-hypnosis had taken place--most people don't remember this event at all.  But the streets were swept clean, with people indoors and watching TV, for one night of great tension.

What will appear as an utter disaster to many, may actually be our salvation!  It is increasingly clear that man, by and large, is no longer willing or able to make enough changes to render such a confrontation and "intervention from above" unnecessary.  Too many people have been asleep for way too long and fallen into apathy or into the "economic survival" race.  We have long stopped co-governing our country and our living conditions, most of which are imposed and shrowded in great secrecy.  We cannot even discern with certainty who and what is responsible for it all or find  competent authorities to speak to, to even register ideas or complaints.  Government scientists have stopped talking to us, and hired meteorologists on TV have become mere script readers.  The topics of the day are completely unrelated to our ability to continue life on earth, haven't you noticed?  Stupid, stupid, short-sighted people still go for making a quick fortune on the backs of people, our children, the earth and of life itself!

So, you see, that advocacy and spreading awareness still has great spiritual meaning, in that it shapes our response to and comprehension of divine intervention, which is close at hand.  Our hearts and minds will not fight it or suffer shock.  And when we meet our maker, we shall know that we 
​ 

STOOD FOR SOMETHING.
WE HAVE PROFILE AND CHARACTER.
GOD CAN RECOGNIZE US.
​WE STOOD FOR LIFE!

​

And God spoke to me:  "So, when you see the celestial body before your face, just like the recent eclypse, know that I am near.  I am undoing harm for you, which you wouldn't do for and by yourselves.  Know that your everlasting spirit will not be affected by the happenings and try not to panic, for I am near, saving the earth and saving you from yourselves and the gruesome oppression by a few who will be no more.  Hold on to me in your hearts, throughout, my children!  I will greet you on the other side and recouperate you at my table, lavishly decked out, just for you!  There, you will gradually discover where and how things went wrong and learn from the experience.  AMEN."

July 31...What a beautiful summer day in South Carolina! Perfect, indeed.  Warm, breezy, trees rustling softly, many birds silent now in the midday heat.  Or, perhaps, that's due to the bird feeder's being empty?

My dog, Lucy, and I harmonize all morning, walking twice, with food in between.  Then, for the first time in a long while, I draft an article, Lucy sleeping quietly as I write, followed by another walk with Lucy, with her mostly just wanting to lie beneath the big oak tree next to my house.  She has a point:  I, too, notice how good the breeze and energy feel there!  I realize that, after so much time on my deck, she misses lying with her belly directly on Mama's cool soil.  And, frankly, I long for walking barefoot on Mama, too, if it weren't for all those wicked fire ants.

I feel strangely sleepy after all this and take a brief nap.  Lucy is avoiding the bedroom now after the episode two days ago, when she encountered her mirror image in a large mirror there.  She was quite spooked. 

Now, back on my deck, I can't shake the feeling and thought:  "We never know when we experience our last happy, perfect day.  At the time, we see it just as another okay day" (Movie:  The Fault in our Stars).  I remember also how happy I was at times during my childhood during a summer day, just like this one, with buzzing insects and exhausted, fully-grown plants holding their breath in the heat.  They long for the coolness of evening to resurrect themselves again.  Back then, it was the fields with fully grown wheat and turnips, radiating a special glow, sprinkled with blue cornflowers and red poppies throughout.  Yes, those were the summers of my youth.

Now, I smile as Lucy watches first falling leaves floating down from everywhere onto my deck.  Her eyes reveal she's never witnessed anything of this kind, and she "watches TV" through the spokes of the railing, as she observes every movement and scent in the garden below, like a fascinating movie.  Yes, I am happy.  No geo-engineering for a second day in a row, which brought a lovely breeze to my location, less humidity and..some natural clouds--Yippeee!  Such a great feel and wonderful, rare sight!  Just as I write this, chemical cloud formations and pieces of left-over chemtrails from elsewhere are drifting into the picture:

"Remember summer," I hear the voice of my spirit.
"Remember this summer," whisper the trees.  "Soon, the skies will be yellow, as on Venus.

I get up to water my garden.  The smell of the sprinklers are mixing with steam of the soil, rising to my deck, during the glow of late afternoon sun.  "Yes, I shall remember this," I promised, as chattering gold finches flutter by.  I pluck some crisp lettuce and kale from my veggie bed for supper, complete with radishes and cucumber, a pepper and some dill.  Lucy is fed and sleeping again.  The bird feeder is full again, too.  Everything watered and standing tall, except for the sunflowers hanging their heads, pregnant with seeds:

PEACE.
