I was curious....

In some books and research I've read, it states that handfastings MUST be legally done, but in other books I have read, they state it does NOT have to be Legalized. Which is true? It will be very helpful.

Thanks and blessings!

A couple of weeks ago, I had a blissful experience with a little hummingbird. I won't ever forget that experience. I was taking care of two of my clients, A husband and wife. Mary, a  87 year old women with Alzhemiers, and Merkey, a 93 year old man, who is alive more than ever lol. They live with their son and daughter in law, who are one of the nicest people you would ever meet.

They have a hummingbird feeder on their back porch, thats owned by ONE little hummingbird, lol. "I mean this is his own personel feeder", and he ain't sharen with nobody! lol. He fights off the bees, ants, and other hummingbirds. He even dodged at me for coming to close with the camera, lol.

So here we are, Mary, Merkey and I sitting on their back porch. I was filling out some paper work, and Mary and Merkey was enjoying the last of the sunshine this year. Here comes this little hummingbird. He starts hoovering above our heads, so low, like he wanted something to land on......Were all looking to see what this little guy is going to do....So I stuck out my pen, and this little hummingbird lands on the end of my pen inches away from my face, just staring at me! Mary says "Oh my", and Mike's jaw is dropped in amazement, lol. I am just stunned looking at this beautiful creature..... Not blinking once :)

It was only for a few short seconds, but in those very few seconds, it was a VERY blissful and spirit lifting experience.

This little hummingbird is gone now for the winter, but I have a good feeling, he'll be back to claim his feeder once again, lol.

Hope you all enjoyed my little story of the little hummingbird. Come check out my blog photos to take a look at this little guy.

"The modern tradition of equating death with an ensuing nothingness can be abandoned. For there is no reason to believe that human death severs the quality of the oneness in the universe.

" - Larry Dossey, MD

Kenny, a client of mine, told me that his mother had a stroke and has been left totally paralyzed at the age of 76. She had been told for years that she needed to stop smoking and drinking, but never did. She smoked and drank heavily for 50 years. She her told her family, and put into her Advance Health Care Directive, that she didn't want extraordinary life support if something like a catastrophic stroke happened, yet now she wants to be on the life support rather than die. She is terrified of death.



Why do so many people have a deep fear of death?

The fear of death comes from two beliefs:

1. When we die, we disappear.



2. When we die, we will be punished for our sins. God is judgmental and we will end up in hell or purgatory for eternity.




If you could be sure that when you die, your consciousness goes right on living - that your soul essence cannot die - would you still be afraid of death? If you knew that You - not your ego you but your true Self - was immortal, would you be afraid of death? If you knew that you would see all your loved ones again, would you be afraid of death? If you knew that the only judgment you would experience would be your own reliving of the choices you had made while in the body, would this scare you? If you knew that you would be coming into unconditional love, and that this love would help you continue on your soul's journey, would this frighten you?

The problem is that we can't KNOW this in a left-brain scientific way. We can know it only in an intuitive way, a feeling way - remembering the truth of who we really are and what God is.



Our feelings are an inner guidance system, letting us know when we are thinking and believing in ways that are on track with what is true and right for us, and when we are off track. Thoughts such as "I'm worthless" make us feel bad because they are not true. The bad feeling is our Higher Self letting us know that we are off track in our thinking. These off-track thoughts come from our programmed mind - our ego wounded self - which is filled with false beliefs.



When you think the thought, "When I die, I will disappear", this thought may create fear. When you think the thought, "When I die, I will go to hell or purgatory. I will be punished for eternity for my sins," how do you feel? The fear is letting you know that the thought is not based on truth. When you think the thought, "When I die, I will gently leave my old or sick or hurt body. I will go home and see all loved ones, and I will continue learning on my soul's journey.

I will be surrounded by unconditional love, and I will be able to learn from my mistakes," how do you feel?

From a scientific point of view, neither of these views can be proved. You cannot prove that you will disappear or go to hell any more that you can prove that you will continue to exist and your soul will continue to learn and grow. But you can know on the FEELING level which feels right and good.



You can choose to believe whatever you want to believe.

Why believe something that makes you feel terrified? Why not choose to believe in what makes you feel loved and safe?
