Greetings!
Spring is here!
I was fully aware that I had not published any post for almost 3 months. I had been working on two posts ** simultaneously on and off since my last post It was his life, and it was up to him how to live his life - Part 1 . (** i.e. It was his life - Part 2 and Honoring Lord Buddha and Earth Treasure Bodhisattva) I had hoped to finish these posts, and moved on to the ''now'. The human I found it challenging to share some of the personal dramas of that time, and wanted to skip writing about them. I soon realized I could not simply write how grateful I was after everything came to pass, without relating what happened before (i.e. some of the personal dramas). Due to this conflict within, I let weeks and months went by.
From my experience, I knew I could not finish a post even if I forced myself to sit in front of the computer. I decided to take it easy. Some days I did not sign in to my blog. I loved to watch The Cat's Diary on YouTube. The cats, Kikig and Hairball, had helped raising many ducklings and chicks. When these ducklings and chicks grew up, they still came to sleep with the cats from time to time. When Kikig and Hairball became parents, the chickens and ducks sometimes came to babysit the kittens. It warmed my heart to see the cats, ducks, and chickens living in such peace, harmony and love. I also enjoyed watching The Masaka Kids Africana singing and dancing. The smiles on their faces and their expressions of joy were beautiful to behold. Of course, I watched spiritual videos too.
As much as I enjoyed the videos, I really hoped to finish the posts. One night I had a hard time falling asleep. I was disappointed at myself for being so undisciplined that I did not finish the post as I had intended. In the morning, I heard music in the air. As always, I only heard a few or some musical notes (two lines?) over and over in the air. I hummed into my phone. It was a nursery rhyme - The Tortoise and The Hare. My guide had obviously felt my emotion during the night. Yes, my progress of writing the posts was as slow as a tortoise. I 'got' it that my guide was telling me that I would eventually make it. I appreciated my guides and angels' humor and encouragement. Indeed, our guides and angels don't judge us; they are here to love and support us. (Re We don't judge you. You judge yourself. Don't be too hard on yourself. )
Some of my friends at the small church had been into meditation for over 30 to 40 years. A sister once told me she had been meditating for over 40 years. Every night she went to bed around 8 to 8:30 p.m., and woke up at 4 a.m. to meditate. Like others at church, she seldom talked about herself. I only learned she was clairvoyant after an incident at church. I eventually learned there were others that had accessed their innate abilities due to their dedication to meditation. My friends were surprised to hear that I followed a few TV drama series as well as watched basketball and football games from time to time. I wished I was as disciplined in spiritual practices as my friends. However, I also felt there was nothing wrong that I spent some time watching sports, news or TV on the whole.
In May 2005, I stepped outside of my family to join the Thursday Circle. Of all the readings I had, the 2006 reading gave me comfort or made me feel 'I am alright'. (Re The Grand Prize and the Second Reading ) Near the end of the reading, the psychic looked at me with lots of love and compassion. She said, "You come to live an ordinary life, to collect data living as an ordinary person. Indeed, you want to live like an ordinary person in every way, and do not want others to see you otherwise . . . . . But, Q of D, you also have to accept who you are; you are not just an ordinary person, you are . . . . and this has been a challenge for you . . . ." I liked to observe, and did not want to draw attention. It was true that I found it challenging when someone said things about me out of nowhere in front of other people. He or she often walked away while I stood there not knowing how to respond. With time, we all improved on our way of handling life's situations. I did too, and was more at peace with myself. We are not just the human garments we put on for A Play on the Stage of Life. We are all much more than who we appear to be .
Other than my progress in writing the posts was slow, I was (am) doing fine. Occasionally, my son said, "Life is hard." I usually smiled and countered with "Life is supposed to be fun." It was in our difference of opinions that we learned from one another. Our realities often reflected our attitude. I had interesting encounters in stores and parking lots every now and then. My son found my experiences weird and unthinkable. I loved my strange experiences.
What prompted me to write this post?
Originally, I had planned to publish Honoring Lord Buddha and Earth Treasure Bodhisattva as my first post for 2024. Recently, I had a dream that I considered as worth sharing. I thought I would wait until I finished the two posts that I had been working on. Yesterday a friend forwarded to me some information about the possible changes that were coming in 2024 by email. On the Internet, there were lots of talks / predictions about 2024 and beyond. Many people were deeply concerned as what would happened in 2024. Therefore, I decided to share the dream as my first post of 2024.
In the dream, I was observing what went on in the other dimension*. *There was no sense of ground
A powerful couple had taken over an organization / operation / mission. They were giving talks to a huge gathering.
Next scene, in a different location or where the organization was, the female told those that gathering around that their son and daughter would be in charge of the operation. (The observing me was somewhat surprised. The couple took over the operation, and I thought they would be in charge.) The mother said, "They (i.e. the son and daughter) have to learn how to answer calls." ("They have to learn how to answer calls" were the words I got in the dream. I thought "Ah, it make sense to let the new generation take charge.")
Back to the scene where the huge gathering was - the man continued with his long talk. (I could be watching both scenes / happenings at the same time, but it was easier to relate in sequence.) At the end of his talk, he said, ". . . . . much more that needed to be done. Be a Spark of PEACE. Just BE."
Then I woke up. It was a feel dream. (See More on Dreams ) The only image was the man. (I am not good in remembering details of one's appearance as well as names.) I did not get any name in the dream. He was of average built and was not tall. A layer of golden light surrounded him. The layer was neither explosive nor expansive / thick. It was probably around 8 inches wide. It was more like how we used gold color to outline an image. The golden outline was very bright that made his image stood out in a feel dream. As I came out of the dream, the words "Be a Spark of PEACE. Just BE." stayed with me.

The message my friend forwarded to me was similar to those on the Internet. According to the channeled messages, these changes were necessary so as to bring in a new world. Listening to those talks / predictions, some people thought of moving to somewhere that would not be much affected by the earth changes. Others worried as what to do if the old banking system collapsed. My son who did not like to hear anything spiritual did not watch those 'spiritual' videos online. In fact, there were many people liked him. They went about life the way they normally did. They might have heard someone talked about the possible changes, but it was of no significance to them. As I had mentioned, I watched news regularly. I had heard many stories that in time of sudden happenings such as tornado and flood, it was the every day people that rose to the occasion. They helped their neighbors, and quietly rebuilt the place.
Some people feel dismay that their loved ones are not into spirituality as they do. To me, ALL IS WELL. We are all spirits / souls / spiritual beings express in forms having a physical life on earth. I am interested in spiritual matters, but it does not mean I am more 'spiritual' than my loved ones. For those that want to move, pray and follow your inner guidance; don't make a decision because of fear. It is the same with the banking system. In my experience, I agree with my guides and angels that The real beauty of life is what you do not know . Have faith in the Loving Divine. Trust that what we need to know will be revealed to us at the right time. (For instance, I did not know I was going to hold a healing workshop until I was prompted to go to the holistic store. Re A beautiful pink fish on the back of a white dove )
Everything is energy. Our thought, anxiety, worries, joy, peace and other emotions are energy. A person that was overcome by sadness could not comfort those that were sad; a firefighter must stay calm to rescue the ones that needed help. Bless are the Red Cross and Peace workers in the war zones helping those in need. They are anchors of peace and love that the world needs the most in time of chaos or turmoil.
Dear Friends, we may not be the brave souls who selflessly serve in the war zones; but, we can pray and send love. What the world needs now is peace, the unshakable peace that is within all of us. Do not be disturbed by what is going on around us. Have faith that only good comes out of all situations. Let us center in peace. Let our inner peace expand, connect and unite as One Peace around the world.
Be a Spark of PEACE. Just BE.
Love and Peace,
Q of D
