2/15/2923 Tom White

  Was from the Boston area. A multimillionaire with 75 million in the bank. He made his fortune by taking his father's broken down construction business and building it up to one of the best in the Boston area.

    Growing up with an alcoholic father made him vow that his future kids would not have to put up with lacking conditions. Not too much money and not too much love. He made good on both. He went to Haiti and saw the poverty. One of the first projects he funded was an oven for a hamlet's needs. The oven was for bread. Prior to that the women would have to walk 25 mi to get it. Now they could make their own bread. Through the 70s up to the aughts Tom spread the money around for the poor in many countries. First he took care of his family. When he was at college he talked to a woman on the street. She lamented that she wished for a big red wagon to put the recyclables  in. The next day Tom was trailing a red wagon. The woman cried. That was the kind of guy that Tom was.

     Over the 3-4 decades Tom gave away his millions before he died. He did what he loved to do. It started that day as a kid. The thought,  with me things will be different and then he acted on it. Needless  to say it came to pass. He had the right attitude and focus.

2/3/2023 220 FT

      That's the distance  between the water and the railing of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Kevin' knew as he dangled on the railing at the last minute that no he didn't want to die after all. He tells God on the way down. He hits the water at 75 miles per hour. 1 gulp of air at the last second. He needed that air to make it back up to the surface. Hard to do with 2 broken legs. He's  happy he survived the fall. However he sees something below him coming up toward him. He's thinking shark for sure. People nearby see something else. A harbor seal that looked like it was trying to help him out. The seal and him stayed together until harbor rescue ship got to him. Now he educates others that are pushed to the brink. This happened over 20 years ago.

      So,  God heard him on that railing and granted him his wish. That's how fast God can grant a prayer. Events were put in place immediately  up to and including the harbor seal. It worked for Kevin. It can work for you. Hopefully not as drastic as his situation. Despair? Hit a brick wall, try turning to God. He's listening.

1/27/2023 The Discerning Eye

     So God's handiwork can be seen everyday by one having the discerning eye to appreciate it. Every once in a while it's right there in your face.

     Like a story I read on the internet. A gal goes to clean another woman's house in the same town she lives in. While cleaning the kitchen she sees a picture on wall. She moves closer, yep same picture that she remembered from her youth. It was her grandmother who made that picture for her parents. The woman whose house she was cleaning found it in the neighborhood goodwill. This women takes it off the wall and hands it to her as a gift. An heirloom returns.

     So the woman whose house was getting cleaned said to herself what are the chances. She chose the picture because the colors worked in her kitchen. She parted with it because she saw "God's" hand behind it. So it was a magnifying moment in time. Recognizing the moment, is the first step. Peeling the onion. More experiences await you. The more you recognize it the more experiences you will get. Your world will become a lot larger and more enjoyable in the process.

1/23/2023 Veneers

    This young couple on hearing from friends, decided to get their teeth filed down to points. Then they get fitted with the veneers. They flew to a different country because the clinic there was way cheaper. You guessed it, it didn't  go to plan. Very painful and the veneers diqn't fit very well. They still have pain. All this because they wanted a better smile. See here we can learn from others, if we're smart.

     A while back in time I read a story of a woman whose hair did not grow back after chemo. She did not like to wear the wig. She was not a happy camper. To her people avoided her because she was hard to look at. Then one day she catches herself in a mirror while walking next to one at a store. She was taken aback by the scowl that was plastered across her face. Now she new the real why. It was her expression that made people distance themselves from her. She practiced smiling into the mirror in the morning. She was now mindfull when it came to smiling.  And lo and behold the new her changed her reality. Other people smiled back at her. Not just this one day but every day. Her self worth had returned. She shut it down to begin with. But she was smart to see what the problem was and did a quick easy correction. 

     Sometimes we need cosmetic help. Thats all well and good. But to go to extremes can hurt our life. That young couple used to eat comfortably  before their procedure,  now not so much. Why, because of vanity. My motto if it's not broke, don't fix it. Readjusting our attitude saves a lot of money and grief.

1/12/23 Runaround

      It's all about the heat. Problem: my oil tank sprung a leak. The tank outside was above ground and it looked ok. Under the tank a small hole formed. I patched the hole. Oil is now in the ground. Diesel oil a mixture of gasoline and oil. The off road diesel is what you use in your tank. A neighbor gives me name of a friend of his that removes oil tanks. I found a hidden tank that was next to my standing tank underground. He brings in a medium size backhoe to dig out the oil contaminated soil and the underground tank. During this time, I search for a contractor to convert my oil burner from oil to gas. The first guy I get a price. I call back 3 days later to ask a question. Secretary says he stepped out. Wait 3 days no phone call from him. Call again, secretary says he's  on the phone will call me back. Never happens. Week and a half wasted. I'm in a Home Depot see a workman in there wearing a shirt from a big plumbing company. I call that company. He says it can be done for under 2000. He says the final estimate I should have in 2 days. Yeah right. 2 and a half weeks later get an email from him. I brought up up to my board and they don't  want to do it your way, however they can install a new one for 19,555 dollars. Yeah right. 

     Look out my window this morning and see 6 orange cones in the street. Uh OH think it's the natural gas people getting ready to bring the gas line to the house. Just then one of their big gas trucks goes by. It's not them coming for me but another guy that is taking away the backhoe. Get on phone to the gas company, to tell them to put gas line on hold. Put it on their answering machine. Later that day I'm doing a bunch of errands via the car. Get a call from the gas company asking about the turned up side yard. I happen to be on road my house is on. Tell them I'll be there in 5 min. Tell the guy everything. They have 4 big trucks there and a cop car. Tell him can't do the line without a way to get furnace converted over. Missed a bullet there. I was tipped off by divine spirit this morning when I saw the cones in the street and right there and then 1 of their trucks goes by the house. I went from inaction to action in a split second. I contacted another plumber guy whose secretary says can you be there tomorrow after 12, I say yes. The guy is a no show and no call type of dude. Call another furnace guy, same thing happens. That's 4 guys with no good results. Maybe spirit is letting me know this way, to give it up. Keep the oil furnace at least for now.

1/7/23 A Dream Tip Off

      I do exercises in the morning. I use stretching and then use a dumbell. In the dream I see a male pickup a kettle bell, which is a weight with a heavy handle, and he did a pin wheel motion with it and then threw it down a bowling pin lane, in an attempt to knock the pins down. Very strange. I do have some kettle bells, but I haven't used them yet. In the dream, I thought that the guy was going to hurt his arm where it attaches to the shoulder. It is not the way one is supposed to lift the kettle bell.

    About 4 days later, I felt pain in the exact same spot as the guy in the dream. Later on in day felt that pain 2 more times. I decided to not exercise over the next 2 days and rest it. It seems to have helped the situation. I did not think the injury came from lifting the dumbell. I think it was the stretch I do. I curl my fingers at the top of the door molding and lean into the open door opening, while bending at the knees. This maneuver stretches my back bone. I saw that over the course of a year my back got stronger. I would make a count of 50 while doing it. I figured I would increase the count to 130. Did that for a month. I believe I over did it. 50 to 130 count was too much.

    So the dream tipped me off. The dream dealt with exercise. It wasn't  a kettle bell but another thing that I was doing. I was thinking of using the kettle bells in the near future as well. So I will be especially carefull  when using them.

     I am thankfull  for that warning dream and I will be more mindfull in my future exercise efforts.

     A lot of dreams can be screwy. It's the ones you remember when you wake up that are the most important. So write them down in your journal with the full date. You may not understand the dream but you may make sense of it later down the road. And when events occur in your future you just might see the correlation. Being tipped off is a great benefit for your life. It's divine spirit that is trying to help You.
