Hi ladies,,,,and good day to all,,,
OK Pet,,,just for you,,,,I'll stick up my sunburned Las Vegas face,,,
gee, maybe by looking at it I'll get warm,,,,or bring on the sun....
well,,,,soon the addage of April showers brings May flowers,,,,just better happen....although I have to admit,,,,,the rain is always a needed commodity.....
I looked up your Urantia quote,,,,ended up reading quite abit,,,it's the one part of the book I don't have any post its in it yet....but I've been meaning to get there.....thanks for the prod....
Don't dare contradict though?????

that's like waving the traditional red flag in front of a bull....
but ya know.....I'm afraid,,,,if I say,,,,the beauty I saw,,,was the beauty within,,,,just shining, eyes closed and all ,,,,,,that misinterpretation could happen....
it's hard to accept a compliment isn't it.....well,,,,,get used to it....
times are a changing.....we all love each other,,,,because we see the love in each other....
ok,,,,nuff's enough!!! I'll cool it...
I change my avi to my birds when I feel,,,differently....the eagle gives me a free feeling,,,unemcumbered,,,,when I get too cluttered with thought, and just want to free flow......the owl,,,is sometimes when I'm keeping secrets (just let that one out of the bag didn't I

) oh well,,,but also owl,,,,represents seeing,,,, OK,,I won't go there,,,lets just say,,,illusion dissipates....my own preferably...
I just put the peacock up,,,because the colour struck me the other day..
I love that deep irridescent blue....
Gypsie,,,I didn't look at the other links to see what was happening in the southern hemisphere,,,,you will be heading to winter solstice,,,but I don't think that changes much,,,,it's solstice,,,and the gathering is global,,,will have to look into it some more...
so glad to hear Pat's out of the hospital,,,,,,,sending her love and healing every day....
Oh,,,some 'moon stuff' for you though....the full moon we just had was in Scorpio,,,,and the next one is in Scorpio also,,,,,don't know how that happens,,,,they mentioned something of calling it an 'astrological blue moon',,,,,,where as we normally think of a blue moon is when we have two full moons happen in one month,,,,with 28 days between each full moon,,,,we'll be waiting awhile,,,for the next blue moon...
The Full Moon April 20, 2008 is the first of two consecutive Full Moons in Scorpio. From this Full Moon to the next - May 20, 2008 - there is a huge inter-dimensional portal open between all times, spaces and dimensions energizing the power of the word to make things manifest. It is critically important that what is expressed through thought, word, action or deed be fully considered before its expression. To do so otherwise would be folly as it creates chaos and confusion generating destruction and fear instead of empowering beauty, life and love.
that between these two full moons,,,was a particularly energetic time....but there was this little exercise that I thought was pretty good.
If you have not already done so, this is a good time to do a small journal on each specific aspect of your life making a list of what you want to get and what you want to give with the figure 8 flow so that your life is full, whole and abundant. You will want to get at least five small journals with a dozen or so pages in each one. The first one is for your sense of purpose, your life's work, your career, the second for your love relationship(s) and partnership(s). The third is for your environment - both living and working, the fourth is for your friends, family, sense of belonging and support network, and the fifth is for your health. If there are other areas that are important, do a journal on them, too. On the first page of each journal write 'these are all the things I need to get from . . . . . . . . . . . . .' fill in for the appropriate journal. Then start making your list. When you run out of ideas turn to the back of the journal and write at the top of the last page 'these are all the things I need to give . . . . . . . . . 'fill in for the appropriate journal. Then start making that list. Eventually the lists will meet in the middle of the journal and a picture will have emerged of what the balanced flow looks like for you on a daily basis.
I'll have to put up a post it to remind myself to do it...
Lilly,,,your crystal sounds beautiful,,,,maybe you can get a picture of it sometime....I have a sort of egg shaped piece of Laboradite,,,it has beautiful hues of blue in it....and I sat it my my lamp the other night,,and saw something I'd never seen before,,,,it was like the colour came out in the shape of a rainbow,,,,or a bridge,,,,,it's said about Laboradite that it's a bridge to the stars,,,,so thought it was cool,,,when poof,,,all of a sudden there it was....
Heather I have to say,,,,I'm really going to miss your first avi,,,,because it reminded me so much of 'the other heather',,,,but it's nice to see another pic of you anyway....just as beautiful too.....
I'll work on taking some timed shots of myself to update me....I certainly won't have that nice tanned face....
So now,,,we haven't heard from Laura in a couple of days,,,I know she's going through a bit of a struggle with her sister,,,,,,kind of overpowering,,,,but I think she's doing good,,,,,applying all she's been learning this last little while.....it is tough,,,,when put to the test.....but she'll do all right.....when she gets some time to herself again....
I'm sure if I had someone else move in the house,,,,my applecart would get turned upsidedown,,,,in no time flat....
We're all here for you sis,,,,
ok guys,,,,,sending love to everyone I haven't mentioned too...
time for a sit back and an international coffee,,,,except,,,now I have to go make it....
