“The Alchemist “is another book I’ve read more than one time. The story is both inspiring and thought provoking. It’s message one of spiritual guidance for the reader. This morning I said a prayer and opened the book randomly, knowing I would find a message of insight. This is what I found.

Dad with Robert and Ramona and Linda, friends from Guam.
Today was my father’s birthday. It has been five and a half years since his death and of course with time and healing it is easier to face his birthday. I always miss him, and this year is no exception. So often I think of him, and feel his love and support with my from heaven. I am here in Florida because of dad and I have created a life living near the ocean because of the gifts he gave me. I’m grateful and sad, wishing he could be here physically to share my life and my adventures. He loved me deeply and he made great progress in the last couple years of his life to really try and understand my overseas life. He met some of my friends from overseas and he met one man I loved. He was able to share some very special moments and for that I will always be grateful. I love you Dad and I miss you.

No matter what relationship you choose you will find moments that transform you with the depth of their love, the fear, the frustration and the sheer joy and commitment of loving another soul. This is no easy walk, it’s a baptism of fire. No matter who we are, who we love, who we feel drawn to in our life the fact remains we are changed and challenged by commitment in the best and worst ways. For certain life will become about WE rather than me. It will feel at times like a series of compromises, which challenge your very being. We all think we are flexible until we’re faced with the needs and desires of another soul. Then we come to realize maybe we aren’t as easy and flexible as we imagined.
