I am Blessed!
I appreciated a scrummy kale salad(I adore kale and determined to grow it in my garden forest when circumstances allow:) with the most deliciously-juicy sweet cherry tomatoes on the vine, garlic, pink salt, lime juice, rocket, red bell pepper, chili and olive oil dressing. It has to be one's favourite balanced meal in the Universe!

Hemp Power!
Why Hemp?
The humble hemp seed is the most sustainable crop on earth! It's versatility is just mind-blowing! Unlike cotton production which poisons agriculture workers, uses up resources and contaminates water supplies, hemp grows abundantly without the use of fertilises and vast amounts of water.
*As a food it's a complete protein source as well as being a powerhouse of omega 3 essential fatty acids(essential for a healthy brain and heart:). These good fats help you to release excess weight unlike the undesirable trans fats in processed foods.
* As a clean fuel source unlike fossil fuels(oils, coal, tar etc.) that pollute and contaminate land and rivers significantly contributing to global warming and the mess we're in now.
* Hemp makes an excellent and durable fabric for clothes(bags, diapers etc.) and has far superior tensell strengh to cotton and repels more ultra violet rays then any other fabric.
*Hemp makes excellent ethical, skincare preparations(moisturizers etc.) it must be down to all the nourishing omega 3 essential fatty acids(I especially love the UK-made Yeoh brand:)
* Hemp makes a ethically-sourced paper unlike tree paper!
*The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico was a disaster waiting to happen Oil is far from ethical and ultimate kills many lives on land and sea. People go to war over oil, fueling the ego and greed mentality. It plays a huge contribution to the deforestation of the rainforests(whether for animal production, industry or paper production) is wide-spread pollution and environmental degradation on a global scale. We can't plant enough trees, they're our lifeblood! I'm scared for our children's future. Ultimately, all this is down to is unnecessary irresponsible human behaviour. Time to mend our ways perhaps?
* Reuse, Recycle, Reduce
* Eat and wear Hemp(Go vegan, eat a plant-based high-water fuelled diet:)!
* Practise Yoga / Meditation

Sunny Daze!
I appreciated a lovely, light and hydrating breakfast of organic cucumbers, Granny Smith / green apple and fresh strawberries making us feel wonderfully-light and energetically-vibrant like a child!
Eating high-water foods will change your life. Your eyes will sparkle, your skin will clear, your elimination will be easy, in fact, most everything will change, including how many times a day you need to go pee! :)
That's okay! Getting to know the nearest bathrooms is not always a bad thing.
If you are already a intuitive eater, then you are probably ahead of the pack in this area provided you are avoiding salt that will cause us to retain water. Salt (sodium chloride) is a poison that the body needs to dilute with retaining water to keep it away from the delicate tissues of the body.
We need natural sodium found in coconuts, celery, greens and some melons to keep us hydrated. Normal Walker, author of the book "What's Missing in Your Body" about Vegetable and fruit juices said that celery juice is the perfect solution to hot weather and keeps us cool. Intuitive eaters in general have body temperatures about 5degrees less than SAD eaters due to the fact that the body does not have to create a fever to "burn" up the heavier concentrated foods like starches, proteins and fats. These foods "sludge up" the circulation of the body and make it have to work harder.
Juicy fruits and veggies are the best for weight-loss. The reason for this is their cleansing ability. Also, in the book "Your Body's Many Cries for Water" it tells us that many cravings we get are because we are mistake thirst for hunger(If in doubt drink some water:0).
I'm no physician but in my humble opinion the best hydration natural drink solution to consume is pure coconut water(Perfect balance of hydrating electrolytes for the human body and therefore perfect for sports enthusiasts, mums-to-be, children and elderly alike:). Closely followed by awesome combo of organic celery and bananas. This is also great after a workout or strenuous activity. Let's no forget the humble fruit tomato, full of lycopene makes it a natural sun preventative measure too! This does not mean to disregard the slip, slop, slap(slip on a shirt, slop on some sunscreen, slap on a hat)mantra. Common sense still prevails!

Thought of the Day!
'We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a commodity which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.'
Opps!
I forgot to mention to very good ethical personal care brands that put people and planet prior to profit that are definitely worth mentioning(I love them:)
* Dr. Bronner's castille soap all-purpose cleanser is utterly-delightful!
*Tom's of Maine toothpaste(You can make your own from baking soda, dried orange / lemon peel:)
* Kingfisher Toothpaste(UK)
*Oliva(sp) The pure olive oil soap that's all saponified olive oil(biodegradable:) from Greece!

No Poo!
I just like to share a no frills recipe for cleansing and conditioning hair. It also confirms that the mass-produced personal care products on sell on the market today are not only harmful to humans, mammals and the environment; they use up valuable vital resources and therefore unnecessary. These products are often full of toxic chemicals that destroy life. ie eco-systems, human and marine alike.
One way to change things is to 1, make your own 2, only support ethical companies that care:
*Jason US
*Green People UK
*Faith in Nature UK
* Avalon US / CAN
Remember! Good(Ethical)business thrives on supply and demand like any business, the more people that support good business the natural health industry will thrive and we all be healthy as a result, relying innately on our intuitive healing powers then 'big pharma'.
No poo: mix a little baking soda with water(simple:)
Rinse: diluted apple cider vinegar
DIY alternative: Indian soap nuts or a mixture of gram flour and water(mix, strain through muslin / stocking use the liquid part for washing hair:) You can also cleanse your body with this. As a rule of thumb(Human body is the largest organ)if you can't eat it, forget it!
An alternative to overpowering scent of the toxic fragrances / perfumes try a few drops of pure essential oil instead ie Jasmine, ylang Ylang, lemongrass etc.

Nature's healing Power!
The healing properties of essential oils are many, varied and extremely effective. The list of plants providing these healing essential oils is almost endless. Here is just a small handful:
- Clove bud or lemongrass for numbing pain
- Chamomile or geranium for anti-inflammatory action
- Cinnamon or ginger for relieving pain by producing heat
- Lemon eucalyptus or lemon verbena for relieving pain through relaxation
- Sandalwood or tangerine for inducing sleep
- Peppermint or basil to inhale for headaches
- Marjoram or neroli to relieve stress
- Angelica or bergamot for depression
- Cardamom or jasmine to stimulate and make you alert
- Ylang ylang or rose to lower high blood pressure
- Thyme or garlic for powerful antibacterial agents
- Bay rum or geranium lavender for more gentle antibacterial oils
- Juniper or Melissa for treating viral infections
Lavender is the most popular of plants for its healing properties. It is a natural analgesic, anti depressant and anti inflammatory agent. Lavender originated in the Mediterranean basin but because of its fragrance and medicinal benefits, it has moved with migrating people and is now found worldwide. Lavender oil is the most important medical component of the plant and contains several distinct chemicals with healing properties that complement one another. It is one of the few essential oils that can be applied directly to the skin undiluted but should never be taken internally.
The most common way in which essential oils enter the body is through the nose and the skin. Oils absorbed through skin pores and hair follicles enter the bloodstream and circulate throughout the body. Because you smell the fragrances as the oil is rubbed on your skin, you can often benefit from both inhalation and the topical administration.
Smells are very important in our lives - they so often trigger memories of events in the past that we had almost forgotten. In addition, smells can initiate different physiological responses that can go so far as to affect our entire body and mental outlook and those healing properties in essential oils include the different smells produced.
The cost of making essentials oils is high, so most commercial product fragrances do not use the genuine article but rather those that are chemically synthesized. They might smell like the real thing but they will not have the healing properties - quite the reverse as many of the chemicals used may even be harmful by causing an allergic reaction.
Two treatment therapies that use essential oils for their healing properties are:
- Psycho Aromatherapy where essential oils are used to either stimulate or relax the brain. Some oils can have calming and tranquilizing effects while others are energizing. These oils can relieve depression, stress and anxiety and promote a general feeling of well being.
- Therapeutic Aromatherapy where essential oils treat medical conditions.
Whatever condition you might be suffering from, there may well be a healing natural oil product to treat it. These products are made from essential oils with all the healing properties that they bring. Such products are specially formulated to target a specific condition so there is no hit and miss. Essential oils are highly complex mixtures of often hundreds of individual aroma compounds so research, knowledge and experience are needed to get the perfect mix.
Importantly, the healing properties of essential oils have tremendous potential to reduce our reliance on pharmaceuticals with their synthetic ingredients and adverse side effects.
Try putting a few drops of pure lavender essential oil in a small cup of bicarbonate of soda(Naturally deodorising, neutralising odours)and leave to dry for a few 24- 48 hours. sprinkle on carpet and vacuum(viola you get a clean carpet and the scent Provence will linger for days!

Coca Cola Drinkers Read this!
When somebody drinks a Coke watch what happens…
* In The First 10 minutes: 10 teaspoons of sugar hit your system. (100% of your recommended daily intake.) You don’t immediately vomit from the overwhelming sweetness because phosphoric acid cuts the flavor allowing you to keep it down.
* 20 minutes: Your blood sugar spikes, causing an insulin burst. Your liver responds to this by turning any sugar it can get its hands on into fat. (There’s plenty of that at this particular moment)
* 40 minutes: Caffeine absorption is complete. Your pupils dilate, your blood pressure rises, as a response your livers dumps more sugar into your bloodstream. The adenosine receptors in your brain are now blocked preventing drowsiness.
* 45 minutes: Your body ups your dopamine production stimulating the pleasure centers of your brain. This is physically the same way heroin works, by the way.
* >60 minutes: The phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc in your lower intestine, providing a further boost in metabolism. This is compounded by high doses of sugar and artificial sweeteners also increasing the urinary excretion of calcium.
* >60 Minutes: The caffeine’s diuretic properties come into play. (It makes you have to pee.) It is now assured that you’ll evacuate the bonded calcium, magnesium and zinc that was headed to your bones as well as sodium, electrolyte and water.
* >60 minutes: As the rave inside of you dies down you’ll start to have a sugar crash. You may become irritable and/or sluggish. You’ve also now, literally, pissed away all the water that was in the Coke. But not before infusing it with valuable nutrients your body could have used for things like even having the ability to hydrate your system or build strong bones and teeth.
So there you have it, an avalanche of destruction in a single can. Imagine drinking this day after day, week after week. Stick to water, real juice from fresh squeezed fruit, and tea without sweetener.

Food for Thought!
Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.
~ Albert Einstein
We get old because we stop playing?
Sub-atomically we are one. We are all particles. Under a microscope you are a vibrating string theory, energy!
The soul never dies.
There is only one book: the book of nature
There is only one caste:the caste of humanity
There is only one religion: the religion of love

Sacred Mantra Chants, anyone?!
Chanting, singing, dancing(I loved country dancing during my primary schooling years:)creativity, nature / wildlife is what makes us tick(Try it for yourself:0)!
Maha-Mrtyun-Jaya Mantra
The Great Victory over Mortality Mantra.
A prayer to invoke the release of the illusion of limitation (of death)
Om Tryambhakam Yajamahe
Sugandhim Pushti-vardhanam;
Urvarukam iva Bandhanan
Mrityor Mukshiya Ma’mritat
Om Tree-um-bak-um Ya-jarm-a-hay
Soogan-dim Push-tiv-ar-dan-um
Oor-va-rook-am-eeva Band-an-an
Mrit-yor Mook-sheeya Maam-rit-at
Om. We honour Tryambakam, (literally "Three Eyed One" [Siva] symbolising a state of perfect knowledge of the three realms - body, mind, spirit). Our focus on this fragrant state of knowledge increasingly strengthens and nourishes us. Through it, may we be liberated from identification with the mortal body and its certain death, and from the illusion of all limitation, which is like death. May this happen as easily as the ripe cucumber is severed from the vine.
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti Om
Om Peace Peace Peace Om

A Chant for Wholeness

what remains again is the Whole.

May we strive to find the true meaning of the scriptures.
May we never quarrel with each other.

Inspiration
Keep walking though there's no place to get to.
Don't try to see through the distances.
That's not for human beings.
Move within,
But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
If I lose my direction, I have to look for the North Star, and I go north.
That does not mean that I expect to arrive at the North Star. I just want to go in that direction.
Thich Nhat Hanh
As love increases in your mind, harmful forces do not affect you....
The best protection from one who is trying to harm you is to think
"This being wants happiness just as I do.
May this being attain happiness."
The Dalai Lama
Beauty is truth, truth beauty, -
that is all ye know on earth,
and all ye need to know.
John Keats
Zero
Is where the real fun starts.
There is too much counting
Everywhere else.
Hafiz
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are
powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness,
that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves:
Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God,
you're playing small does not serve the World.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking,
so that other people
won't feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest
the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us: it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
Marianne Williamson
You need not do anything.
Remain sitting at your table and listen.
You need not even listen; just wait.
You need not even wait;
Just become quiet, still and solitary.
And the world will offer itself to you to be unmasked.
It has no choice.
It will roll in ecstasy at your feet.
Franz Kafka

Inspiration
Keep walking though there's no place to get to.
Don't try to see through the distances.
That's not for human beings.
Move within,
But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
If I lose my direction, I have to look for the North Star, and I go north.
That does not mean that I expect to arrive at the North Star. I just want to go in that direction.
Thich Nhat Hanh
As love increases in your mind, harmful forces do not affect you....
The best protection from one who is trying to harm you is to think
"This being wants happiness just as I do.
May this being attain happiness."
The Dalai Lama
Beauty is truth, truth beauty, -
that is all ye know on earth,
and all ye need to know.
John Keats
Zero
Is where the real fun starts.
There is too much counting
Everywhere else.
Hafiz
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are
powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness,
that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves:
Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God,
you're playing small does not serve the World.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking,
so that other people
won't feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest
the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us: it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,
our presence automatically liberates others.
Marianne Williamson
You need not do anything.
Remain sitting at your table and listen.
You need not even listen; just wait.
You need not even wait;
Just become quiet, still and solitary.
And the world will offer itself to you to be unmasked.
It has no choice.
It will roll in ecstasy at your feet.
Franz Kafka

Now there's a perfect excuse to shop(Ethically of course:)!
BREAK THE FOOD/ REWARD TRAP
Sometimes the cravings urge is more psychological than chemical. If you are prone to hit the biscuit tin or tuck into ice cream when you are sad or bored, you could blame your ingrained food-reward system.
'If you were given sweets if you were upset as a child, you could have a common association between sweet foods and comfort,' says Dr Kendall-Reed.
Dr Kendall-Reed believes you can stop that response, but the process is not quick. She says any ingrained habit takes 21 days to break. She recommends a 'shopping cure' to ease cravings.

Worth Remembering!
'I must see my life as a work in progress, nothing about me is ever final'
Deepak Chopra MD.
Deepak Chopra MD.
Positive Thoughts Create(Negative Thoughts Pollute)!
I love this lady as she tells it as it is and is a true light worker!
All we have to do is turn on the news to see that we are in the midst of a very tumultuous time on this planet. Challenging and even catastrophic things are taking place in every facet of people’s lives. It is very easy to feel overwhelmed and fearful about the future and what is going to happen to us and our families. Unfortunately, our fear just compounds the problem and motivates us to cling to the old paradigms that are surfacing to be healed and transmuted into Light. Even if our old behavior patterns and our previous ways of thinking and acting have made us miserable, at least they are familiar to us and we know what to expect. As the expression goes, “Better the devil you know than the devil you do not know.” This attitude is common, but nothing could be more counterproductive during this time of transformation.
Contrary to outer appearances, the things that are occurring all over the world are not going to destroy Humanity or the Earth. These horrific things are coming up to get our attention and to motivate us to find a better way of interacting with each other and the Earth. We have been buried in our own self-inflicted pain and suffering for so long that we are numb. We have fallen into the destructive habit of using extreme pain as our motivator. Unless something catastrophic happens in our lives, we just muddle through each day without paying much attention to what we might do to make things better. However, when something disastrous happens in our personal lives or on the planet, we start scrambling around to see what we can do to correct the situation.
The devastating environmental disaster occurring in the Gulf of Mexico at this time is a prime example of this Truth. We have known for decades that oil and coal are polluting the planet and wreaking havoc in the lives of people everywhere. Time and again, awakening souls have tapped into the Realms of Illumined Truth and come up with clean energy sources and technologies that would eliminate our use of oil and coal. Because of the power and money associated with the oil and coal industries, these new methods of energy have always been suppressed and hidden from the mass consciousness of Humanity. People have come to the erroneous conclusion that we must have oil and coal in order to survive and maintain our livelihoods. Even now, with oil destroying the precious wetlands and ecosystems in the Gulf of Mexico, many people there are upset that President Obama has called for a moratorium on deep-water drilling. This is a graphic demonstration of Humanity’s distorted perception at this time.
Our lives are so interwoven with the very things that are causing the problems on Earth that we feel we must perpetuate them in order to survive. This illusion is the direct manipulation of our fear-based, fragmented human egos. Our lower human egos believe that the physical plane is all that exists and that our purpose and reason for being is to gratify our physical senses. Our human egos are aware that we are awakening and that our God Selves are beginning to reclaim dominion of our lives. Our egos are fighting tooth and nail to prevent our God Selves from taking back the power this wayward aspect of our personality usurped after our fall from Grace aeons ago.
Breaking the bonds of the paralyzing grip our human egos have had over us for lifetimes is the next critical step in the unfolding Divine Plan. An activity of Light that involves the God Selves of all Humanity and the entire Company of Heaven is now underway. Please step back, take a deep breath, and release any fear your human ego may be using to try to manipulate you. Allow the Divinity within your heart to expand and expand as you read these words with an open heart and an open mind. Miracles are happening and we are receiving more assistance from the Company of Heaven than ever before.
For some time, the Company of Heaven has been telling us that one of the greatest needs of the hour is for awakening Humanity to attain our financial freedom. This is a vital and necessary facet of the Divine Plan. The viable solutions for all of the maladies existing on Earth are beginning to flow from the Realms of Illumined Truth into the hearts and minds of Humanity. In order to bring these powerful solutions into physical manifestation, awakened people with a higher consciousness need to have the financial support to bypass the old paradigms of greed and corruption. It is the abuse of money and the compulsive greed of our human egos that have caused the appalling poverty and the inequitable distribution of wealth on this planet in the first place.
The Beings of Light have confirmed that at this very moment there are patterns of perfection in the Causal Body of God that contain practical solutions for every negative situation manifesting on Earth. These include solutions to our energy crisis, pollution, global warming, disease, poverty, crime, aging, hunger, homelessness, war, and every other human miscreation. Amazingly, there are people who have been manipulated by their human egos into suppressing the knowledge and the technologies that are available to solve these problems. Through their limited, fear-based consciousness, all these people can see is what will happen to their present financial situations if these problems are solved.
For instance, what would happen if all of a sudden disease and the degenerative process of aging were eliminated from the planet? Imagine the number of people who would be out of work: doctors, nurses, hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, pharmacies, drug companies, medical insurance companies, and all of the workers who support these industries. Millions of people have a vested interest in keeping us sick.
What would happen if war was eliminated? If you will remember, just before September 11, 2001, and the manifestation of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, there was a lot of talk about having to close some of the military bases in the USA for financial reasons. This was causing a great deal of concern for military personnel. Look at the millions of people who would be out of work if our military complex and the war machine were no longer needed. There are millions of people who have a vested interest in perpetuating war.
What if Humanity remembers the Oneness of Life? What if we all recognize the Divinity within each other, and we truly develop a reverence for all Life? Crime, corruption, violence, greed, and everything associated with the criminal aspects of our present existence would be eliminated. Think of the number of people who would be out of work if we no longer needed the criminal justice system, police, security officers, prisons, prison guards, criminal lawyers, et cetera. What in the world would we watch on television or in the movies? It is interesting to observe that since many of the prisons in the USA have been privatized, the population of the prisons in this country has more than doubled. Prisons cannot succeed as a private business without lots of prisoners. There are millions of people who are vested in keeping crime alive and well.
When we ask people if they want to see disease, war, and crime eliminated, they usually say “of course.” But when their livelihoods depend on these things, they are afraid of what will happen to their financial security if these conditions cease to exist. That fear creates an underlying need that perpetuates the painful things people say they would like to eliminate.
We are so accustomed to living with disease, war, and crime that we think they are normal. We cannot even imagine living without them. The concept of a world without these maladies seems unrealistic and far too good to be true. Our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven are striving to remind us of the fact that these terrible things were never part of our Divine Plan. We created them through the misuse of our thoughts, words, feelings, and actions and they are being perpetuated and sustained by our fear-based human egos. It is time for us to stop this insanity. It is time to turn things around.
We must free ourselves from the paralyzing grip of our human egos and raise our consciousness. Instead of looking at the outer world and coming to the erroneous conclusion that this is all there is, we need to see the bigger picture. WE ARE COCREATING THIS REALITY!!! Everything existing on Earth at this time is the result of Humanity’s collective consciousness. If we do not like what is happening in our individual lives or on the planet, we can join together and cocreate a new reality. Our task is to have enough of us focusing our attention on the patterns of perfection for the New Earth to reach a critical mass.
When we lift our consciousness, we realize that we can tap into the patterns of perfection in the Causal Body of God. We have the ability to cocreate wonderful new ventures and avenues of employment that will secure our financial freedom while blessing and enhancing all Life. We do not have to limit ourselves to the parameters of what currently exists on Earth. We do not have to perpetuate pain and suffering just so we will have enough money to survive. This distorted belief is a trap that our human egos created in order to control us.
The quandary we are in at this time is that we are Ascending into the 5th-Dimensional Realms of Light. This dimension vibrates with the frequencies of God’s Infinite Perfection. Every frequency of vibration that is less than the harmony and balance of God cannot exist in the 5th Dimension. This is why all of the prophecies that describe the New Earth indicate that there will be no pain or suffering; no aging, disease, or death as we know it now; no poverty, hunger, or homelessness; no war or violence.
This miraculous transformation is not going to occur because someone waves a wand and magically does it all for us. It is going to occur, because you and I and every soul evolving on this planet remembers who we are and our purpose and reason for being. We are cocreators. It is time for us to reclaim our Divine Birthright, which is God’s Infinite Abundance. This will allow us to let go of the belief that we have to perpetuate the maladies on Earth in order to have enough money for our survival. The key to accomplishing this goal is bursting the bonds of our manipulative human egos. That is in fact the next step of our unfolding Divine Plan.
This summer an event will take place involving the unified efforts of the God Selves of every man, woman, and child on Earth and the entire Company of Heaven. August 14-19, 2010, during the anniversary of the first Harmonic Convergence which took place August 15-18, 1987, Lightworkers from around the world will gather within the forcefield of Washington, D. C., in the USA. Together we will form a mighty transformer of Light through which the Light of God will pour to open the 5th-Dimensional Portal of Liberty, Divine Justice, Freedom, Victory, and the Violet Flame of God’s Infinite Perfection. Our Father-Mother God and the Company of Heaven have revealed that the infinite power of these Divine Qualities will raise the energy, vibration, and consciousness of Humanity’s physical, etheric, mental, and emotional bodies effectively enough to burst the bonds our human egos have used to manipulate and control us for aeons of time.
This unprecedented activity of Divine Grace and Mercy will occur through the God Self of every person on the planet in perfect alignment with his or her Divine Plan and the highest good for all concerned. It is impossible for us to truly comprehend the magnitude of what it will mean for each of us to be free from the manipulation of our egos, but our lives will be transformed. Instead of feeling like we are always walking toward our goals through tar with gale winds blowing in our faces, we will be empowered by our God Selves and the Divine Intervention of the Heavenly Realms. The patterns of perfection for our individual lives and our collective lives will manifest much more quickly. Together we tangibly cocreate the New Earth.
Through this activity of Light we are ALL being called to a higher service. This is a joint effort between Heaven and Earth. Those of us who have the heart call to participate need to listen to our inner guidance and respond accordingly. Our Light and Love are a critical factor in the success of this facet of the Divine Mission.
The vehicle that will be used to gather Lightworkers within the 5th-Dimensional Portal of Freedom, Liberty, Divine Justice, Victory, and the Violet Flame of God’s Infinite Perfection is the 24th Annual World Congress on Illumination. This event will be held August 14-19, 2010, at the Crystal Gateway Marriott in Arlington, Virginia.
Ask your God Self what your part is in this Divine Plan. Listen to your heart, and you will KNOW. If you have the heart call to travel to Arlington, Virginia, which is in the surrounding area of Washington, D. C., to serve Humanity and all Life in this way, ask for assistance. The floodgates of Heaven will open to pave the way for you to attend this activity of Light. Be open, be receptive, and Trust.
Many people will have the heart call to serve as the Hands of God on behalf of ALL Humanity. They will travel to Arlington, Virginia, to become part of the mighty transformer through which the Light of God will flow to open the portal of Freedom, Liberty, Divine Justice, Victory, and the Violet Flame of God’s Infinite Perfection. However, if you do not have the heart call to be physically present in Washington, D. C., there will be other ways you can participate.
Some Lightworkers will be inspired to travel to various sacred sites to anchor these patterns into Mother Earth’s Crystal Grid System. Others will gather with groups in their own locations to weave their Light into this unified activity of Light. And still others will join in consciousness from the solitude of their own sanctuaries.
All of these ways of participating are vital to the success of this Divine Mission. The important thing is that you truly listen to your heart and respond according to YOUR particular facet of this Divine Plan. No matter where you are guided to be, know that we are ALL One. Precious One, your Light and Love are needed NOW!

Do you remember this?
It's Your Move(US '80's sitcom:) starring Jason Bateman(I loved this as a child, Jason was brilliant:)
Despite only lasting one season, NBC’s It’s Your Move was a definite bright spot of the 1984-85 TV season. Having established himself as an intelligent young actor in his recurring role on Silver Spoons, Jason Bateman (brother of Family Ties’ Justine Bateman) was the obvious choice to play the crafty, fourteen-year old star of the show, Matthew Burton.
The show centered on the scheming Matthew and his ongoing battles with his adult neighbor, Norman Lamb. Norman, a struggling writer from Chicago, moved across the hall from Matthew and his family—his widowed mother Eileen, a legal secretary, and his sixteen-year-old sister Julie. Eileen and Norman had struck up a romantic relationship, much to Matthew’s chagrin. Matthew, who was convinced Norman wasn’t good enough for his mother, became determined to put an end to their relationship by any means necessary. This usually involved myriad unsuccessful attempts to make Norman look bad, introduce new men into his mom’s life, and generally foil any and all efforts on Norman’s part to win the heart of Eileen.
Unfortunately for Matt, he met his match in Norman, who proved to be just as clever and calculating as he was. A large part of each episode was a basic game of can-you-top-that, with Matt and Norman trying to outsmart each other through various set-ups, practical jokes and clever deceptions. It didn’t help Matt’s cause that both his mother and his typically bratty older sister found nothing wrong with Norman.
The highlight of each show came from watching the Jekyll-and-Hyde personalities of both Matthew and Norman. Matt, who was nothing short of a model son in front of his doting mother, would flash his mischievous grin and begin plotting his strategy the second she was out of sight. Norman, too, never let on in front of the women that he was always trying to outsmart Matt. Each had the ability to be charming and thoughtful around others, then conniving and underhanded when dealing with each other. Eileen, meanwhile, remained clueless as to the nature of their childish games.
Also included in the cast were the apartment building’s self-serving superintendent Lou, Saturday Night Live alumnus Garrett Morris as the school principal, and Matt’s moronic friend Eli, who had an unrequited crush on Julie. However, the show’s real charm was Matt and Norman, whose constant battle of wits was always a treat to watch, despite the fact that neither side ever got the better of the other.
Despite only lasting one season, NBC’s It’s Your Move was a definite bright spot of the 1984-85 TV season.

Nostalgic Mood!
As a kid growing up in Blighty, I was partial to the US Television imports ie Dallas, The Thorn Birds, Kane and Abel etc. etc. and the US sitcom, 'It's your move' starring a rather cute Jason Bateman(I admit along with Richard Gere, William Bradley Pitt, Wesley Snipes and the Karate Kid actor:0). It may be a good decade or two later, but given the passing time frame he's still has that cute 'Jason Bateman' smile!
Remember him? I guess not, I think I've shown one's advancing years!
Oh, how I love reminiscing, love nostalgia -I'm definitely sounding like a lil' ole lady Now, oh well:0)
Blessings!

Banana Creme Pie Ice-cream, anyone?!!!
Just indulged in some deliciously-wicked(Not really, but it sure taste so:0) creamy dessert which was soo, soo good(Even if I do say so myself:). Do you want a dessert that's healthy(Good source of calcium, magnesium, amino acids, B vitamins, vitamin E etc.) animal-friendly, Earth-friendly, simple, quick, that will impress, that's indulgent as any decadent dessert?
Well, gals and guys all you need is a good supply of frozen ripe bananas(depending on how many mouths your feeding:0) Tip: As soon as they get all spotty, peel, break into chunks and freeze:) and almonds and that's it! Grind the almonds into a powder(no need to soak if their the Californian almonds:)add the frozen banana chunks, wizz up in the FP and viola, there you have a creamy taste sensation!
The beauty of this recipe is the sheer simplicity and you've noticed I don't include exact amounts. That was deliberate as it's your creation! You could use this simple recipe as a base to create your own wonderfully-creative taste sensations. Try cardamom pods, rose water / essential oil / petals, pistachios etc. Tip: Cashew nuts(yes, cashews:) and frozen berries make a scrummy, refreshing dessert!
Warning!
The above recipe is extremely-morish!
Just the thing for the gloriously-sunny days:0)
