Friday Quote: A Year by the Sea


This weeks quote comes from a book I love by Joan Anderson. She has written several books about her journey of self discovery.

 

Such is my morning ritual, nothing terribly complicated unless I’ve forgotten to bring logs in from the woodpile the night before. I’m deep into my time-out season of life, where it seems best to be actively passive, involved in little, aware of much. Instinct told me to take myself away and look at all the unwrapped gifts nature has to offer. The natural world is hibernating and so am I.

The True Power of Water

The True Power of Water By: Masaru Emoto is a book that I find deeply interesting and that I recommend. It is one of several books that Masaru Emoto has written on the effects of vibration, energy, prayer and thought on water. When I was flipping through it this morning, reading randomly I came across a piece I wanted to share. Along with this is a YouTube video with Dr. Emoto

A family that subscribed to our magazine conducted an interesting experiment. They put the rice in two glass jars and every day for a month said “Thank you” to one jar and “You fool” to the other, and then they tracked how the rice changed over the period. After a month the rice that was told Thank you started to ferment, with a mellow smell like that of malt, while the rice that was exposed to You fool, rotted and turned black. Pg 97

Reading For the Fun of It

I’m returning from a great two week vacation. Actually, let’s call it a working vacation. I went to Louisville, Kentucky to visit my daughter Monique, her husband O’Farrell, and their 4-month old son, Baby.  He’s a Jr., but we’ve called him “Baby” since conception and haven’t changed it yet. In a few years I imagine he may be a little upset with us for referring to him as a “baby”, but until then, he’s my “Baby”.

My job was to relieve Baby’s parents as often as possible and give him a break from daycare. Talk about a labor of love. You know, according to me he is the cutest, smartest, child ever born. Don’t you just love how Spirit allows each mother, father and grandparent to feel that way about their child? Feeling this type of unadulterarted love for a child, your child, enables those around to love and nurture giving each child a wonderful foundation of love in which to build their life on.

Practice What You Preach

Last week my 25 year old daughter, Monique, called me from Kentucky, tired, overwhelmed, frustrated and worried. She was preparing for the “GRILL”, which was the test all employees have to take to move forward in her company. There were topics from “accounting” to “everything you think you might need to know”. You went from department to department being “grilled” about what that particular department did, and their relationship to other departments. The goal of the “griller” is to hit you and hit you hard. One in particular had a reputation of making the “grillee” cry. The pressure was on. As an employee she works an average of 55 hours per week, plus she’s a new mom with a three month old son. She and her husband share duties, but as most women know, we are usually the overall caregiver of the family. 

So, here we are two days before the “grill” and she’s a wreck. With both she and her husband as recent college grads they both found great jobs, she at a national car rental company, and he at a multinational company. They both make a decent salary, but with car notes, rent, baby everything, and huge student loans, they frankly needed the money passing this test would provide. Needless to say, a lot was riding on the outcome of this test.
