Aleah and Noah's song- Waiting

[Sandy]

Hi Kim,
I can tell you that George has a much happier outlook since his "River encounter." We see one of his Specialist doctors on Monday and another test on the 21 st and so hopefully we will know more soon. But I feel all is looking up.

Thank you for spreading the love...
((((((Hugs)))))

Sandy,
That is so good to hear.
As I continue to go to the river, 'spreading the love' continues to grow... for others and myself.

Dear Kim,

Though I've not told them about this river, I believe the space we've created is beneficial for all of us. That there are "wonder-workings" behind the scenes, that sympathy has opened our hearts to each other and those we pray for and allowed a space for Loving Action. Pappy and my friend seem to be just fine, in a world where our greatest enemy can be ourselves, just fine is okay with me.

[Sandy]

I like "just fine" and all these open hearts....It's a beautiful thing.
We're doing "just fine" too...

Sandy and Eric,
'Just fine' and 'open hearts', are indeed good to hear! Many on my list are doing the same, others are not. Here's to praying everyone's status could reach that level. Eric, don't remember if I told you, but Tiny calls her grandpa on her mom's side, Pappy. He's a man who has many struggles of his own, warms my heart to hear of another loved Pappy in the world.

Have to admit I lay right down in the river this morning for several minutes, letting it wash away my own tears . In the wake of the shooting in New Zealand, amber alerts of missing children, mess our country continues to face, elevated crisis in so many of those close to me, and trying to get over the flu, my reserves seem to be dwindling today.

Am especially grateful to have the day off to, just like with cleaning, start in a corner and clear away the clutter of my emotions. On the bright side, our local arts council is having a gathering on Saturday as a nod to St. Patrick's Day. Amazing art works will decorate the walls, our writer's group is reading limerick's, going to be a Celtic band, and Aleah has agreed to sing a few Irish ballads. Should prove to be a merry crowd!

Hope you all have a very loved filled day! I'm off to clear the clutter.

Love,
Kim

Hi Kimmie,
The massacre in New Zealand has been a tough one to shake. This week end without diversions has proven not one of our better ones. Still the moping around hasn't helped anyone. I suspect a dip in the river with all our beloveds would have helped.

Your week end sounded like loads of fun though... How are you feeling now? My little sister also had the flu and is slowly on the mend. Nasty stuff the flu.

Has spring broken there yet or are you still inundated with snow? On the news tonight they showed the flooding from the ice melting there in Northern US. I hope you and the family are safe and dry.

Love,
Sandy

Hi Sandy,
It's hard to even comment on the New Zealand massacre. Senseless hatred… Why? What does it accomplish?

Good morning!

Contemplating, sending love to those in my family and friend circle who are facing a plethora of serious problems in their lives. I found solace and strength in entering the river this morning. Dave and I are on either side of his coworker, holding hands with him as he lays in the water. At this moment on this plain, he's in hospice waiting for death. My prayers for him are to be able to see those in spirit 'waiting' for him, so he may ease into death unafraid. I'm holding Sandy's hand on the other side, she has one of George's hands, and Aleah clasps the other and so on and so on.

That's my vision of the river this morning one hand holding another in a seemingly unbroken zig-zagging line on down and out to the ocean where the water intermingles with the rivers of others. All of us receive healing from the river, rays of light from above, and from a golden ball of light passing from one person to another through their connection.

Love, Peace, and Courage to all,
Kim

Kimmie,
You brought tears to my eyes as I joined you in this River of Love. Whenever I tire and boy oh boy I do that so often these days. I wade into this wonderful river of love and friendship. Thank you for holding my hand as I am sometimes afraid. Thank you sister. Don't let go.

Love you to bits!
Sandy

Sandy,
Some days I plunge into the river, not even holding my breath underwater as the currant washes away stress and uncertainty.

Releasing fear is one of our biggest challenges isn't it? I will hold your hand as often as needed, we'll both help the other keeping our heads above water... Unless we both decide to plunge in at the same time!

It's a deal!
You know, I've always loved swimming under water. Even without goggles it still fills like exploring a strange new world. Used to do this in the bathtub as a kid. LOL Water all over the bathroom floor. But what fun!

Love,
Sandy

Hello everyone,
I'm gratefully surprised how many views Aleah and Noah's song has received on the boards. As it has evolved to be so much more for me than a song my daughter sings, into a place, a symbol of healing. I hope many more continue to find it inspiring and healing. Perhaps that is the purpose of music?

Love to all,
Kim

I recently enjoyed her song again. there's beauty all around.

[Sandy]

Yep, me too, Eric, I just listened to Aleah's song again and now feeling the peace as the the lyrics continue to "flow"in my head.

Love to the precious singer and her family, Oh, and of course, every body else as well.
Sandy
