Is The Universe Friendly?

 

While having conversations about many different topics with friends, for me, the most interesting discussion is about the Universe, and whether it is friendly, or not.  This seems like a very big topic.  However, as different NASA missions look at planets, we have to start wondering what life is out there.  And, will we be happy to meet the unknown life?

I think that life is a pattern of options.  So, if we have all types of friendlies and hostiles in our environment here (city, region, prov/state, country), then those patterns will also show up in the Universe, repeatedly.  We need to be prepared to deal with unfriendlies and to welcome friendlies with warmth, the way we would greet any new neighbour.  

The conversation was fast and filled with different ideas and “what ifs”.  The conclusion seems to be that it will be exciting to find out more about the Universe and who lives where.

Many Blessings,

Ancestors on Persistence

 

                                     Picture from J Hirst -taken of Elbow Falls in August 2021

Our Ancestors have some powerful parables about taking action.  Parables are stories that become sayings overtime.  One of the sayings is that expending big energy is like a torrent of water bursting down a mountain.  It has power for a very short period of time.  When energy is managed, it has sustaining power just like the constant gentle wash of water down a mountain side. The gentle wash eventually will wear down the mountain.

In life, we will do tasks with short but large bursts of energy that play us out and may even stop us from doing much for a day or two.  If we use our energy wisely and manage our energy, we are like the gentle wash of water that will have staying power and help us to whittle our way through many tasks.

Many Blessings.

I Have Been Busy!

 

I have had a very busy week, and I really have not had time to blog.  I am sorry about that because I enjoy my blogging sessions, and I love getting the emails and comments from everyone.

Thank you to all of you that shared stories with me this past week.  By the way, if you are okay with me sharing your story, please let me know in the email.  Some of you have very special stories that should be told.

So what have I been doing?  Most days, I am doing tasks to make my life easier.  We are selling or giving away things that we no longer need and getting ready to do some painting.  I have packed up four bags for Canadian Diabetes,  We are cleaning out nooks and crannies. As we clean and sort and pare, we feel the energy in the house shift. Subtle changes in balance happen from room to room.  Closets feel lighter.  Everything seems more airy. 

I think I am back on schedule!  Thanks for your patience.

Blessings.

The Right Moment

 

The discussion began over coffee about the “bad luck” and “good luck” that different people seemed to be having over the month of November.  Friends and loved ones were being diagnosed with different illnesses or were dying suddenly.  People were loosing jobs, and as a consequence, loosing their homes or having to make severe changes.  The consensus seemed to be that it was all bad luck.  

Another topic was how different people seemed to be having a series of fortunate incidents happen to them.  They were in the right place at the right time, etc.  This was deemed to be good luck.  There was not any discussion about how hard some of these folks worked to get education or to master the jobs they had so that when an opportunity showed up, they would be ready.  

The discussion made me think of a quote..

“Sometimes I arrive just when God's ready to have someone click the shutter.”
― Ansel Adams (famous photographer)

I think that all timing is perfect.  We mortals simply cannot see the beauty in the design of the pattern of life.

Lion on Pride - A Spirit Animal

 

The Lion speaks about his PRIDE – his family, and pride and joy.  Lion says that you do not get to default on your responsibilities to your family. If you decide to walk away because you need a change, know that you can never go back.  When your PRIDE is gone, it is taken over by  a new leader/father/teacher, and the memory of you is dust.

The PRIDE is dependent on one another and although each lioness, cub, or lion is individual, they also have an identity as a whole. Change is a constant to the PRIDE.  Some are born, some leave, and some die.  It is the circle of life.  The constants are the rules of the PRIDE, and the survival of the PRIDE.

Blessings,

Judy

Positive Talk

 

This is the positive talk that we all need to be saying to ourselves everyday! Throw out the negative talk.

We can be our own healers with positive talk,

We can bring ourselves in balance,  We can push away hurt.  We can surround ourselves with love and spread love to others.  We can change the direction that our thoughts go.  We are amazing!

Try it.

Blessings,

Judy

Small Injuries To Your Body

 

I banged my knee on the corner of the bed when I was making it.  It bloody hurt, because I punctured the skin on the corner of the post.  Within fifteen minutes, I banged my head on the corner of the kitchen cupboards.  I never do that.  I couldn't figure out what happened.  The last straw was stubbing my toe on the step as I was going upstairs.  It hurt, and I never stub my toe, either.

What is going on?? I kept asking myself what was happening and what I was supposed to learn.  And then I got it!  I was not being mindful.  I was not paying attention to what I was doing.  Instead, I was allowing my mind to wander, and to distract me from the task at hand.  I am all attention, now.

Getting small bangs to your body causes one to go out of balance.  It is a good idea, after a couple of knocks like I took, to sit in meditation and bring your body back to Center, to a place of stillness and balance.

Many blessings
