 Quote "It is necessary to leave the impersonal highway, to step inside the rusty gate and close it behind. One is now inside the orange grove, out of one world and into the mysterious heart of another. And after long years of spiritual homelessness, of nostalgia, here is that mystic loveliness of childhood again. Here is home." - Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Cross Creek, Florida, 1942 "I have a need of gulls again and their flying... out over the foam-white acres of the sea." - James Dickey Back to top Welcome I am dedicating this month's newsletter to the healing of the gulf oil spill. I know many of you have been as saddened by the disaster as I have. I grew up vacationing in Florida, and have visited the coast all my life. I attended college in Mississippi, and Mardi Gras in Louisiana. I lived for a time in Key West, Florida, and grew to love the sight of the shrimp boats leaving port, and congregating for the annual Blessing of the Fleet I hope we can all have a hand in turning this around. Whether by getting involved physically by volunteering or contributing in some way, or equally important, by holding a resonance that it can be solved and sending energy for the miracles that are needed Messages of Hope and What We Can Do/Be Loved this story that my friend Kathy Tucker found: If You Spill It, They Will Come: Costner, Cameron, Redford Solve the Gulf Oil Catastrophe? http://video.eonline.com/uberblog/ b182270_you_spill_it_they_will_come_costner.html (If clicking on the link doesn't work, try copying and pasting it into your browser and hit "enter.") Below is from Dr. Masaru Emoto. (thanks to my friend Janet Wilson for sharing) | My 16 year old son was in tears this morning about the devastation in the Gulf of Mexico I told him about how water responds to intention and suggested that we pray to the water itself Let us all suspend our hatred and anger for the moment and let the intention for healing arise This is what is most needed at this moment Dr. Masaru Emoto's research reveals that water physically responds to emotions and communications. He sends this prayer. To speak it with sincerity is powerful and humbling: Now let's give energy of love and gratitude to the waters and all the living creatures in Mexico Gulf by praying like this: To the water, whales, dolphins, pelicans, fishes, shellfishes, planktons, corals, algae and all creatures in our Gulf of Mexico I apologize. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you Masaru Emoto May, 9th 2010 | I'd love to hear from you about what you're doing/being for the healing of the gulf oil spill. Just reply to this newsletter.
