A physician friend of mine, a lady surgeon, recently had surgery. I went to visit. I brought soup.
We had a lovely visit. She is married to another physician. I know and have worked with them both in my career. I have known them from the start of my career.
What shocked me is how caring the husband was for the wife. They have both retired, him full retirement, her semi-retirement. He treated her with such kindness! I have never experienced such kindness myself, and actually, never seen it with my parents either. Mom always cared for dad, but never, ever, ever the other way around.
Then I remembered my mother's cousin, who married one of my father's cousins. We had just spoken on the phone about two weeks ago after many years of just sending cards. I remember being at their wedding, and also being a little sad because I was the right age to be the flower girl but she played politics and chose my nine year old cousin instead of me. I remember her baby shower my mother threw for her.
They have had a hard life. He ran/managed a gourmet grocery store. She stayed at home. But their daughter ran away after having a teen pregnancy. She ran away to a commune and nobody has ever heard from them again. And their son, well, he passed a few years ago from prostate cancer.
Her husband had a stroke. And she has a ton of health problems. She doesn't drive. But together they are able to help one another. She was so worried for her husband, she said he was like a little baby so helpless at the stroke but he has recovered almost everything now.
I was glad when he answered the phone I had told him I loved him, even before I found out all of the news.
God pairs us off to help each other in old age. As well as to help raise families together. The plan is beautiful! And it has been attacked for many years now. There is fear of missing out, there are men's organization for men who are unwilling to commit, and I won't even begin with some more recent societal concepts. God made them, male and female. This too has been under attack.
This morning when I turned on the radio, the state of California was talking about how a woman was having trouble making ends meet for her and her daughter. The advertisement was for a new support system to help provide food and even diapers for the mother and baby so 'there is less worry'.
Where is the father?
Where is the extended family?
Is the Government stepping in to these roles?
Why are so many parents single? divorced? And financially struggling?
Stay close to Creator and Source. There are forces way beyond our control and our understanding at play. It is a land of confusion out there.
That is why I shared with you the original plan, the original blueprint, for humans, and that is, to help one another throughout the life, especially at the end when life gets difficult. And family is to help family. The financial squeeze being placed on us is like so slow and steady, and the forces behind it are wanting us to be crushed and helpless and to turn to the government for help.
One of the things I discovered is to pray for what is good, to give thanks, and to ask for more. This is metaphysically super important because it helps us to manifest. Thank you God, for Peace. Thank you for safety. Thank you for our meals. Thank you for nice weather. Thank you for friendships. Thank you for never being far away. Thank you for your guidance. Thank you for loving us.
As times change it is all the more important to apply love and gratitude for all that is good!
And to go daily within, to experience this connection to all that is good back Home in Heaven.
That is enough for today.
Clap! clap!
