6/3/2023 More on Common Sense

       Off the coast of Nassau a recently graduated kid from Louisiana  went on a pirate themed cruise. Alcohol was passed around during the feel good outing. Alcohol and judgement don't go hand in hand. On a dare 18 yr old Cameron attempts to jump into the water a little past midnight. These are shark invested waters. Some of the kids aboard tried to stop him physically  but he broke free. They threw him a life preserver which they saw him try to swim for. That was it for him. The remaining kids on board were cold due to lack of warm clothes. They were all miserable for the next 4 hrs as the crew tried to locate him. They didn't. One stupid act screwed it for every body aboard.

     Hopefully  they learned some things. Don't make dares. You are either there for everybody or your not. And when your not bad things can happen. And they did.

6/3/2023 Aspiration: To be a Hood Ornament

       Really?  Last week this gal in New York climbs atop a blue car on the hood.  On a 1939 super 8 Packard car sits a shiny silver female figurine facing out from the front of the car.  This gal sporting long orange hair sits on a medium size hood facing the windshield using her hands to hold on to the lip of the car hood. She faces the wrong way, a backward hood ornament.. The car takes off down a NY highway reaching up to 55 miles per hour.  Super Crazy and dangerous. Why? Where's  the common sense? In life one of the most important things to have other than love is common sense. It is needed in all areas of your life.

 Without common sense you can hurt your life immensely.  Lucky for this gal she survived with no injuries. No matter what your so called friends try to cajole you into. You have to think of the conseqences of that future action. It's  their wants that concern them most of all.  You don't rate period.  If you are weak in common sense you can ask divine spirit to help you with it. If someone asks you to do something and you are not sure about it.  Keep thinking about it, then try to feel the answer. A lot of times divine spirit is that small quiet voice within you.  Listen to that one. Then see how that played out for you in your near future. When you see the good results you will return to that altar that lives within you. This is why you are on Earth. To use the altar within. 

      Don't be a hood ornament. Vanity is just another pot hole that needs filling.

5/31/2023 Pizza God

      Place Rhode  Island. Setting, a porch of a private home. Time May 2023. Occurence,  a pizza delivery. Ryan delivers pizza for a living, his next stop is just ahead. This week he learned that his 16 year old daughter who experienced mental health issues during her life,  had just died. She lived in California. Ryan loves his daughter. He hands off the pizza and pockets the tip. Little did he know a bigger surprise awaits him. The 2 year old in the house launches himself past the mother off the porch down the sidewalk toward Ryan. The mother is stunned and regroups.  She's hot on his tail. Too late the boy gives Ryan the stranger a little bear hug and does not let go. Ryan returns the hug. The mother says she can't explain the boy's actions.  The mother learns that Ryan had just lost his daughter several days ago.

      

      The boy is 2,  his connection to the God worlds is still there. The boy can commune with the people on the other side of the veil. As we get older that connection becomes weaker and then stops.  But you can work your way back to that state by communing with divine spirit. How. By asking questions of it and then paying attention when those answers come to you. You can start today. Your life will be better for it.

      Ryan says he will never forget that moment for the rest of his life.

     God just revealed himself to the boy, the mother and most of all Ryan.

Thanks to the mom who shared her story.

5/26/2023 Karma....A Fishy Update

       Back in September I wrote about 2 guys who cheated in a fishing contest in Ohio. It was a walleye tournament. At the end of tournament you enter your best 5 fish for weigh in. They fished from their 130,000 dollar boat. Nothing but the best for these 2 guys  near Cleveland OH. 

     Guess what they beat everybody and won the 30,000 dollar tournament. As the officials took them down from the scales, they slit each fish open and lo and behold weights fell out. Many fisherman where in attendance. Boy they started yelling something fierce. Lucky for them the fisherman held their emotions in check and didn't get beat up. Cops charged them. The case was just resolved. 10 days each for these cheaters. Probation for 1 and half years plus 2,500 fine plus loss of their fishing license for the next 3 years. They also had their picture spread all over social and print media.. And the piece of resistance   the forfeiture of their fishing boat. OUCH!!!  I wonder who pays the note on that boat now.

Karma can be a real......

5/25/2023 I'll Just Take My Name

      Tina Turner died yesterday. A dynamo behind the microphone. Full of life and a big ball of energy. But behind the scene, another story.  Ike was doing a demo and the singer was a no show, he turned to Tina to fill in. She was recently put in the tourimg band. The demo worked out great. Soon they had a hit. That's when Ike thought to himself hello meal ticket. She wasn't even attracted to him, she thought he was ugly. She married him anyway. Big Mistake. He invented a name for her Tina Turner and had it trademarked. Then he proceeded to control her through psychological means and eventually violence. His fear of losing her dictated his aggressiveness. Hence her very future hit would arise Whats  Love Got to do With It?  Answer: Nothing.

      The year 1976 brought the end of the marriage. One day in a hotel room in Dallas Texas, Tina finally had enough of being a punching bag. When Ike passed out she closed the motel room door behind her and didn't look back. She had 36 cents in her pocket and a Mobile card (gas). That's  it. It didn't look good for Tina, 39 years old and no back up. In divorce court she didn't want Ike's blood money. What she wanted was her name Tina Turner which Ike trademarked. She got her name and 2 Jaguars, 1 from Sammy Davis Jr and the other from Ike. And no money.  She went on to a successful solo career. She also found a great husband to go along with it.

     Change your circumstance, change your life.  Tina did it, so can you.

5/20/2023 More About Focus

       To live fully, one has to be focused on the present because that is where we are suppose to live. Focus is hard. I know. I'm guilty in so many ways throughout my life. I did get things done in some areas of my life.

     So I moved a small store size plastic bag and made it a trash bag that I push pinned to my bedroom wall. It was there for over a decade. Now I stuck it to wall next to my desk. So everyday I still walk trash to the door to dump small items into bag. It's not there, it's now by my desk.  See how ritual can controll you. That old way of doing things can be a detriment to you. You have to evaluate everything that is important to you. Sit down and do it at least once a week. That is a good start in taking better control of your life. I started lifting a dumbell, 10 pounds. 2 years later I'm up to 20 pounds. I do about 20 minutes per day. I take my time. No strenuous activity on my part. After 2 years, I do see the difference and feel it as well. I'm  glad I kept it up. Now on to my finances, which are a disaster. Oh, I also 5 years ago tipped the scale at 260 on 5ft 10 frame. Yikes I said, thats it. I'm a foodie too. Next day started to cut down. Made it to 240 after 9 months then plateaued  for a year. Another push many months get down to 230. After 5 years I'm at 210. I am also glad I didn't give up. I learned a skill set and not to panic when I gain 5 or 10 pounds. Much to be said for sticktuvidiness and  FOCUS

5/17/2023 You Can Change

      Here's a quote from Karen Maezen Miller a zen teacher. "You can change in an instant. You can change your mind. You can change your timing. You can change your approach. You can change your words." I'll add one as well You can change your experiences or your reality.

     Try for yourself. Take one thing you would like to change. Then ask divine spirit please help me acquire said thing or experience. As you go about trying to make this shift talk to spirit about how your making the change. It is through your trying that happy coincidences can occur, getting you to that goal. Divine spirit will bring you a person, book , tv show or any other experience that is relevant to you.

     I had a big heavy sofa put out on the median strip next to the road out front. I asked spirit to help in getting rid of it. I wanted someone to take it to continue its life. I bought a 20 dollar tarp to cover it in the event of rain. Which I used for three weeks on and off. No takers. I'm out there one day and a guy stops. Is it free, I say yes. Hoping this is the guy. Does it have a fold out bed. No.  Alas, no sale. A week later from in my house I hear a crunch. Look out the garbage guy is feeding it into the maw of the truck. Two weeks ago I called the town about picking up the sofa. There is only 4 free big pick ups in the year. The last one was 2 weeks ago. I'd have to wait till beginning of July. She said we can come get it but you have to pay 45 dollars online first. I did not pay any 45 dollars. So I was surprised they took it. I thought my neighbor might of said something to the town but he didn't.

      Divine spirit took care of it, it's way. Thankyou spirit. I'm glad it's finally gone. Divine spirit will work with you in the little things as well as the big things.  Work with Divine spirit in changing your reality for your betterment.

       It's also fun to do.
