It's been just a bit over a year since I last blogged, at least anything of substance. I've just spent some time reading back through some of my blogs, amazed at where I have been, an awareness inside of the movement forward along my Path. So much chaos.....so much pain! Not so much chaos now but the pain continues, ebbing and flowing as pain and sadness do.
I am down to one teenager at home. Dakota is almost 16 now. The oldest grandson Damian is 23 and on his own.....doing well. Middle grandson Tim is on his own, as well.....still a work in progress. Tim usually calls me when he is in need of free medical care, lol. Dakota......well, he's a teenager, what can I say. I am thankful he is the last......I'm ready to hang up my child-rearing spurs, thank you!!
My Oriental Medicine practice continues to thrive and grow. I am thankful I am able to support myself and Dakota. I'm using my essential oils in my practice now. And crystals are "talking" to me these days, lol.....yeah, I've signed up for a class on crystal healing.
I have a Spiritual Guide.......well, he's been my offical Guide for a year now, unofficial Guide for 2 years. This is a person in the flesh, not "out there", lol. I am learning much. One thing I've learned, and maybe passing this on is the reason for this blog.....Guides/Teachers are human, with their own issues and messy lives to deal with. Just because they have come into your life to assist you, spiritually, doesn' make them less human. They are still on their own Journey of discovery. Interestingly enough, my Guide blogged on this very thing not long ago. *smile* I had surmised early on that he was quite human and had his own issues. I do not always agree with some of his ideas and viewpoints but I meditate on them and try to see things from his point of view. Some things I believe quite strongly, deeply......and we agree to disagree. Beliefs can change as one progresses forward along the Path....I know mine have changed over time and with experience. I continue to explore, to search.......
I still pick up sadness and grief easily.....the trick is to figure out if it is mine, from one I am "connected" to, or from the whole bloomin' world! Sometimes I feel like a "pain bearer".....one who shares the pain and sorrow of others. And I get tired......
Enough for today! We will see if this is the start of a more regular progression of blogging....or not, lol. I am filled with gratitude for all the blessings that come to me.....this includes my Fu family and friends
Much love, warm hugs, many blessings, dear family/friends/fans!
I did not wish to pull away from Fubar without forewarning my dear Fubar friends and family. I am not totally leaving.......my profile will remain, but I won't be here as often as I have been, although my presence here has slowly been diminishing over the last few months.
I am going through some massive changes in my life......my spiritual Path has become more defined. I am still attempting to simplify my lfe. Some of this is a deeply painful process for me, but the end result will be worth the effort.
My time here will vary from week to week......I will be back a couple times a week to check my Private Messages and such.
I am open to the possibilities!
Much love, warm hugs, and blessings for all of you. Wish me well......
