Blitzen

'Your boy needs a dog' Ross said, loud and clear, the other night while we were eating dinner.

Ross was right about the new bird cage. It's made my life so much easier. So when I mentioned a puppy to my kid, he got really really excited about it.

One was perfect online--Bltzen, a Welch Corgi red male that was born on Christmas Day.

But this morning, he was 'not available'.

So instead of doing my morning Reiki, I called the breeder's service that coordinates sales of corgis.
There was a sister, Prancer. Or Hanna who was only eight weeks old. I almost bought Hanna.
I checked everything until the final papers talked about the feeding schedule for puppies.
It was like when my son was a newborn, but worse because there's no diapers--the dogs have to be potty trained to go out. They can't just 'go' in the diaper and you change it.

On the way home from school this afternoon, my son asked about the dog he had fallen in love with online. He is good with dogs. His dad has two Boxers and he does okay with them.

I said that someone else had taken Blitzen and we were not going to be able to take him home with us.

He burst into tears. And this kid doesn't cry.

Before I had picked him up, I had read this Heavenletter, which basically is synchronistic with my spiritual growth at the moment: http://sirianheaven.wordpress.com/2014/03/06/heavenletter-4850-where-will-your-thoughts-take-you-march-6-2014/ It is a good way to get thinking about the life experience.

Today my sister, who had raised TWO puppies, Woodles (wheaton terrier poodle mix), said the experience was so awful that she bonded with other dog owners in the neighborhood in the process.

I remembered that, her experience and advice as my son cried.

I told him two things, and I started crying too--we need to be a good home for a dog so they will feel welcome and loved and supported by us--and our lifestyle sucks. We barely have time for anything, we are so busy.

Our neighbor is a dog walker. Once our tears dried up, she came over. With FOUR dogs! We asked her how to get to be a 'good dog owner'. She was honest. Her bottom line? A lot of people buy the dog to be there for THEM, but dogs are pack animals, and you need to be there for the dog.

I shared how we have so much love to give to a dog, and perhaps he could join her on her walks sometime so we can let him share from his heart?

She said yes.

He's walking with her right now.

And I understand the lesson.

The other important point is I have dog hair all over me from petting Sophie, a golden retriever. And my lungs are tight.

I have dog allergy--it's mild and I can enjoy dogs outside. But in the home is different. We are going to need to take that into account before we decide to bring a puppy or rescue dog home.

In a way, being able to discover things as they turn out, and staying Here and Now in the Moment, and feeling your feelings, and being honest, are in their own way a special Gift.

At one point my son asked me if I was tricking him, saying that Blitzen had been sold to another family?

And I said, 'No. I will never lie to you. Even when the news is tough. Some parents do (like my sister who glosses things over to make things 'easy' while child raising). But I won't.

One day, I hope, my lifestyle will change and I can be there for a puppy. It takes, according to our neighbor, three walks and three more letting the dogs out. And she says that leaving them alone in the yard is not in the best interest of the dog...

I hope to share more with you as this develops. I feel Ross' guiding hand behind all of this. There are no easy ways through life lessons, but if you focus on how you feel, and go along with what develops, you find your way through.

This last point is applicable to everything else in addition to dogs.

I hope it helps and is useful in your experience of co-creation for your Life.

Reiki and The Ex's Dogs

my patient, Bai Yun, smelled like a dog

My heart is light. Long story short: if you are one of the over fifty percent of parents who have every other weekend, try to tap in to the unconditional love of the pet who inhabits your ex's place.

I made a mistake. I had sent my lansoprozole over in the backpack instead of the bactrim for the sick Reiki Master seven-year old. I found a text the minute I drove back to my house from my ex's after dropping the kids off. I had to go back.

This time, the boxers Tyson and Hoss came out the door. Their little tail stumps were wagging, and they were giving me the nicest doggie welcome that only a dog can give. Startled, I exclaimed, 'I haven't had this kind of a welcome in a long time!'. I petted them, I played tug of war with a blue toy with them while we talked. I had to complement my ex on such a fine job they had done raising the two dogs. I had questions about dogs in general, like how often they go to the vet, how they get along. One of them peed on the tree for what seemed like forever--he had been timed once taking three entire minutes!

I like all animals, and I enjoy to play with them. These big dogs liked to play rough, so I pulled the chew toy and dragged them towards me, worrying the toy as hard as they did. They came in and sniffed.

Then the telepathic communication happened. It wasn't deep conversation, but it was pleasant. They thought I was nice. They liked how I could play. They wondered why I didn't come visit more often? With this line of 'conversation' I felt totally and completely accepted on their terms.

Unconditional love. Isn't that nice? Especially when you get it even when you are over at the home of your ex. LOL.

Have a great weekend, everyone. And if you have joint custody, send Reiki to your kids on their overnights. It really helps! And also on the first night when they come back, be sure to give it at bedtime.

Namaste,

A Look Behind the Veil

I am going to share for a few moments about the world, and what it looks like (or rather, feels like) to me.

Most notable was yesterday. My youngest sister finally graduated after many years of going to night school to get her certificate as a healer in a traditional mental health industry. The son that I co-parent  has been having issues with his dad. Stuff like dad saying, 'you eat like a pig' that crushes our son's sense of self-worth. Since she specializes in children's mental health, I asked her to come spend some time with him so he could talk.

I gave her a check for her services. At the going rate, more or less, one-hundred fifty dollars. I told her I want to be the first to pay for her services, and that there would be many more checks like this from others as she starts her important counseling work.

She almost cried.

This is the same sister who, ten years ago, when my ex-husband and I went on a trip to England to visit her  while she was an exchange student, had bailed on us. We never saw her. She was 'busy with friends' on a train to Greece! The only reason we went was because before she had left, she was frightened, and made us promise to go visit her. We spent ten thousand dollars on a no-show.

She is my baby sister.

I spent hours with her, helping her grow up. She is a late-life baby for our parents, and I was the firstborn. She wanted to be a counselor since age four. That is when I wanted to be a doctor, age four. But instead of honoring her 'assignment' like me, she went into a different field, and had to go back to night school to be able to be a counselor. Her vibration has gone darker and darker in her life. Now she associates with the lowest of the low, the most fake, the most evil people on the planet, the celebrities and the jet set. The spark we had a long time ago is lost behind a fake tan, too much spinning class, botox, fillers, and plastic surgery.

She thinks she is living the dream. And she looks it. She is nice, and sweet still, I don't know how she managed to do this with her people she chooses to spend time with. And when she can she does make time for family. But I feel sorry, deeply sorry for her. Because her connection to Source is now a trickle.

There is no pain greater to the soul than to be away from Source.

Her dog, on the other hand, her Pomeranian, and I hung out together in the back yard. He LOVED the grass that was chest high on him, and actually RAN! I communicate with him. At first on coming over, his whole body shook. He thought we were going to watch him while his mom went out of town. I gave him a bowl of water, and he relaxed. He got up and down the stairs okay. We went outside. And then, while the other two talked, he just lay down after circling to find the right spot on the living room floor. He smiled. That little dog just smiles. And when it was time for him to go, he did not want to leave. I was wrong about this place, your house is okay. He said.

Who would you prefer to be with? A dog that wears its heart on its paw, loves Nature, smiles, and lets you know it's needs? An animals' programming is different from a human's, and they are huge sources of Love. They do not have a veil. There is NO illusion for them.


Or would you mind to spend time with an illusion of the third dimension success like my baby sister? Someone who you are not quite sure what is going on in their head, someone who is busy with their social life, who cannot see or does not understand the incredible difficulty of my life as a single parent, who has no clue of the changes going on for ascension, and who was once so filled with light it was like an angel full of sunshine in the room?

I can't talk to her. Literally. Our vibrations are so far apart. She has made her soul choices, and I have made mine. The love between us as sisters is the only thing that we have in common, besides a love for our children (hers fuzzy, mine still young).  This was the one who at thirteen wanted to save the Rainforest and was a vegetarian to save animals from painful and frightening deaths. If it wasn't for her example, I would not have found my place where I am. She was right. I got her message.

I wonder if one day she will get my message too? The one she once gave to me so long ago?

The Veil is going to be broken. And when it is, it will break completely, and suddenly. My baby sister is on one side of The Veil: on the illusion side. Her dog and I, are  on the other side of The Veil.  When The Veil is ripped apart in the consciousness of many, the dog and I will be like, whatever! And the people like my sister are going to have their world turn upside-down. It is going to be a shock for them.

Live your life now from your Heart. As best as you can, honor your True Self. And then, when The Veil is torn, you will not be as shaken from your foundation as the others.

Namaste,
