A.R.E.'s Thought for the Day and my experience of Thought

Greetings!

One night in 2011, I went to a forum.  Before the gathering was over, there was a drawing for prizes.  There were about 12 prizes.  Seeing the filled auditorium, I thought, "Those who win a prize deserve the prize, and I am happy for them."  So names were called, and people went up the stage to receive the gift.  I said in my heart to every person that won a prize, "I am happy for you."  Near the end, a thought came, and I ended up getting a prize!  (Re My thought and the outcome )

In that post, I wrote it was interesting how my thought correlated with the outcome.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~  

As an A.R.E. member, I receive Thought for the Day *  on my phone (through my email acct.) every morning around 6 a.m.  ( * excepts / words of wisdom from Edgar Cayce channeled readings)  Some mornings I wake up and grab the phone to read the Thought for the Day .  If not, I  read it while I am on the computer later in the day.  I may have many unread emails, but Thought for the Day is not one of them.

Over the years, I found the excerpts uplifting and helpful in my spiritual journey.  Occasionally, Thought for the Day  turned out to be the answers to the questions that I held before I went to sleep.  When this happened, I logged in to read the whole reading.

On May 28, 2025, I received the following Thought for the Day -

"The mind governs the body more or less; consequently, the mind should dwell on beautiful things if we would have a healthy body."

I recalled my reaction was 'Ah, our mind governs the body."  It was somewhat interesting, but I did not search for the reading.

In the afternoon, I thought of what to eat for lunch.  (I ate when I felt hungry.  I did not have a fixed time for meals.)  Before cooking, I tried to open a glass jar of seasoning.  After a few tries, I just could not move the lid a bit.    

I had difficulty opening jars from time to time.  Sometimes I used the techniques ** I knew, and still could not open a jar / bottle.  (** e.g. put the jar under hot tap water for a while, turn the jar upside down and tap at the bottom a few times, or use paper / towel so as to have a better grip of the lid / jar)  I normally tried and tried to do it by myself before I asked for help.  My son often opened it with ease.  Seeing how easily he did it, sometimes I wondered if I had not applied the strength in my hands correctly while I tried to move the lid.  But then, I had to admit he was stronger than I was.  He was a bodybuilder, and I was not into exercise.  I saw other women lifted up a 24-pack of bottled water with ease.  It was not my case.

My son was at work that day.  When my son was not home, there had been times I asked my guides and angels to help me.  Amazingly, sometimes I got an idea as what to do, and was able to open a jar.  That afternoon I did not pray for help.

Holding the jar in my hand, I decided to give it one last try.  It did not work.  Disappointed, I thought "Oh, my hands are so "  Right then I paused (my thought).  I recalled the words in the Thought for the Day, and realized it was a negative adjective/label for my hands .  With a smile on my face, I said in my mind, "I am going to open the jar with ease."  I put my hand on the lid of the jar.  Incredibly, I did not need to apply any force!  I simply lifted up the lid.  It was as if the jar had already been opened.  To be honest, when I replaced the previous thought with a new positive thought, I was like a little girl who was trying to have some fun; I held no expectations.  I am a senior now.  It was (is) this little girl within that helped me see the fun, joy, magic and beauty of life.  

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~      

While I was writing this post, I noticed A.R.E. had sent out a circulating file on The Nature of Mind on May 12.  I had not read the file.  It had 69 pages which included everything that Edgar Cayce said about the mind during his channeled readings.  In the same email was a short video on Thoughts Are Things.  In the video, John Van Auken shared his own experience in focusing on positive thoughts, and the importance of getting into a pattern of pausing before thought / capturing a thought before you let it become too powerful.  He said Edgar Cayce had said during one of his channeling sessions that new thoughts overshadowed old thoughts; therefore, it was important to focus on positive thoughts.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~  

The two experiences I shared were almost 14 years apart.  In other words, I had not paid enough attention to my thoughts in between those years.  The experience on May 28, 2025 certainly reminded me of the importance of my thoughts.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

It is never too late to begin focusing on positive thoughts and getting into a pattern of pausing before thought / before reacting to life situations.

Thank you, Loving Divine, Edgar Cayce, and all the wonderful teachers / friends at A.R.E.

I got a name in a dream, and police cars in the parking lot

Greetings!

One morning, I woke up from a dream.  

Here was the dream -

Two sisters were talking to a male friend.  I seemed to be the younger sister.  The older sister in the dream was not my sister in life.  We seemed to be in our late teens to early 20 s.  The male friend was tall with above average built.  Suddenly, we heard men chatting and footsteps.  We were on the top floor of a 3 or 4 story house.  The older sister said, "Oh, No!  Father and his friends are coming up the stairs!  Father does not like XXXXXXX (the male friend)!  What are we going to do?"  The me in the dream thought for a brief while.  I walked to the top of the stairs, and said loudly, "Father, you are home!  XXXXXXX is here.  He comes to visit us.  He is about to leave."  Then I walked back to where they stood.  I said, "Don't worry!  Father will not get mad in front of his friends.  And, XXXXXXX should leave right away after greeting our father."  (The characters in the dream were Europeans.)

I woke up from the dream.  Later, I wrote it down in my journal.  At the end, I wrote "Who is XXXXXXX?"

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

A few days later I went to a lecture on mantras.  

I had gone to this place before.  The founder (deceased) dedicated his life for service to humanity and peace of the world.  His students in U.K. and different places in U.S.A. continued with the mission.  This place had good energy.  It showed the devotion of the students to the founder as well as their dedication for service.

Later I learned those of us who had learned the mantras were welcomed to participate in the prayer service for world peace which was held once a week at night.  I raised my hand to tell the lecturer that I did not drive much at night in recent years, and would join them in spirit from home.  The teacher / lecturer was kind and accepting.  She said she had friends that did not like driving at night too.

While I was about to leave, a man volunteered to pick me up for the service at night.  (He was one of the ministers.)  I thanked him, but declined to accept his offer.  I told him it was too much trouble for him to pick me up and drive me home.  He asked where I lived, and said it was no trouble at all for him to do that.  Then he said his name.  He was tall with above average built.  I smiled and accepted his kind offer.  After all, peace for the world had always been important to me.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~      

On the night he was supposed to pick me up, I waited outside of the apartment.  Later, I got a call that he had been driving around and could not find the building that I lived.  I learned he drove a truck.  While we were on the phone, I spotted his truck in a distance in another parking lot.  I told him to stay where he was while I walked over there.  

There was a traffic jam on the way to the place.  We were half an hour late for the service.  I got to participate in 3/4 of the service.  It was a new experience for me.  I was grateful to take part in the service for peace.

The drive home was smooth.  However, the second this brother drove his truck into the parking lot, I could sense we were being watched!  The parking lot was usually not full at all at night, but it was different this night.  I saw a few unmarked police patrol vehicles!  (I saw these vehicles in the school parking lots from time to time.)  One of the vehicles immediately drove right in front of the truck and kind of blocking the truck.  The policeman looked directly and intensely at me.  I realized what might have happened.  I smiled at the policeman to let him know I was fine.  He moved his vehicle to the side and drove away.  

The brother had a big truck.  I did not know much about cars.  His truck was much bigger than the regular trucks.  Somebody in the neighborhood might have seen this unfamiliar big truck driving around, and thought of the news about crimes such as kidnapping.  He or she might have called the police after seeing me getting into the truck.  

The brother might not have noticed anything unusual that night.  I had not talked about it.  After some thought, I decided not to participate in the service at night anymore.  It was too much trouble / time consuming for the brother to come to my place and drive me home afterward.

I attended their Sunday service once in a while.  Last month I went to join their service for peace when it took place during daytime on a Saturday.  They had always treated all that came with kindness and respect.  I felt at ease sitting among them.  

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

In zoom meetings, sometimes channels and readers gave short readings for those that attended.  Most people did not know much about me because I rarely spoke up.  One day, a channel said, "You are pretty established in your dream world."  Some people went to sleep with an intent of what to dream or explore.  I did not.  It was interesting to find how closely my dreams and the reality were interconnected.

Good Night!  Have Fun Dreaming!

A Woman's Words of Wisdom

Greetings!

I went to a store.  Later, I lined up at a checkout lane behind a woman who was probably in her 30 s.  

The woman looked back at me, a senior woman who was carrying a shopping basket.  Immediately, she moved all her items close to the register.  She signaled for me to put the shopping basket on the conveyor belt.  With a kind smile, she said, "Sometimes it gets heavy carrying a shopping basket."  I smiled, and put the basket on the conveyor belt.  The woman's kindness touched my heart.  I thanked her, and said, "I can see kindness all over your face."  She let out a beautiful smile, and said, "Kindness has no price.  It does not cost us anything.  We should be kind to one another."

Many people wanted to know what was their life purpose.  Some set out to do great deeds.  The small deeds we did day in and day out were not any less than what the society deemed as great deeds.  In Who are we and the meaning of life, the Being of Light stood by and kindly told Dannion the meaning of life.  

"Humans are powerful spiritual beings meant to create good on the earth," he said.  "This good isn't usually accomplished in bold actions, but in singular acts of kindness between people."   The little things count because they show who you truly are.  You do it spontaneously.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

As we go about our daily life, let us remember the woman's words of wisdom -

Kindness has no price.

It does not cost us anything.

We should be kind to one another.

Love and Blessings,

Master Kuthumi's Timely Message

Greetings!

Due to Covid-19, I began to join spiritual groups online.  Since then, I joined meetings on zoom regularly.  Locally, the group that I sometimes joined no longer held in-person meetings since 2023; instead, they held podcast for a while.  I had not gone to any in-person event for months.  I believed the last time I went to one was in Nov. 2024.  (Re  When one is healed, all are uplifted )

I felt more comfortable driving during daytime than nighttime.  However, most of the events that I was interested in were held at night.  For instance, there was a center that held meetings every Friday night.  Like the small church in the other state, this center invited spiritual speakers / teachers from different places to come and give talks.  My older son drove me there for the first time several years ago.  Later, I had driven there by myself a few times when they happened to have events on Saturday mornings.  I received their emails regularly.  Their meetings were mainly on Friday nights now.

One night last year, I took a step outside of my comfort zone to drive there for an event.  There was a lot of traffic because it was a Friday night.  When I arrived at that place, I was over half an hour late.  The small parking lot was full, and there was no parking space nearby.

I recalled the time my son drove me there.  It took him quite some time to park in the residential area.  It was a long walk in the dimly lighted streets to his car when the gathering was over. 

After some thought, I decided to go home.  I was at peace with my decision because I had tried.  I was grateful that the drive home was smooth.  My older son had always told me that he would drive me anywhere if I let him know ahead of time.  I did not talk to him about going to the event because he always had plans for Friday nights.  In fact, he was busy during the weekdays too.  Sometimes he went to see his girlfriend or hang out with other friends right after work.  Therefore, I seldom asked him to drive me anywhere especially I knew he was not interested in spiritual stuff.

In March (2025), I received an email from that center with the schedule for Friday nights.  I looked through it.  I thought "interesting speakers, but I will not be there".

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~      ~  

A couple of days into the second week of March, an incident that happened when I was with the Thursday Circle (May 2005 to August 2007) came to my mind.  That day we had a small circle.  The few that were present were professional psychics and healers except me.  The teacher decided to guide us into past life regression.  (As with guided meditation, I could not get into that deep state as my friends did.  Therefore, I often got nothing to share afterward.)   Two of my friends came out of their deep state exclaiming the same words, "Oh, Q of D, you were the XXXXXX XXXXX!"  Amazingly, one saw me in my early years as a young child while the other saw the adult me.  Both saw vivid images of that place and the people there.  The one that saw the child me said my younger son of the present lifetime was there too, and he was my brother in that lifetime; he seemed to be more adept in learning / knowledge than me.  The friend was one of the children there, and we studied / learned together.  I smiled.  I told my friends that I always felt my younger son was wiser and more intelligent than me.  The one that saw me as an adult told me what she saw.  She saw many of them, including the friend and herself, stood together to form a big circle to protect me.  I did not ask.  I assumed that meant the me in her regression was under attack.  She said the scenery was vivid and lively.  She could feel the wind blowing and flags flying in the air.

I did not get anything during the regression.  However, years earlier, I had one dream about that place.  I did not see how I looked like.  (Sometimes I was in a dream as well as an observer of the dream.  Therefore I saw how I looked like.)  Lots of people had gathered to watch those from the monastery performed.  One of them performed levitation.  Quietly, he acknowledged me with a nod.  It seemed I knew how to levitate too.  The me in there was like the me now that did not like attention.  I had not told anybody about that dream.  My dream did not seem to correlate with my friends' version of me in the past life regression.

I did not ask questions.  I assumed I was a female / a girl in their regression.  I had never heard of any female story of that place.  But then, I knew very little about the history of that place.  To me, it was incredible that one friend saw the young me while the other saw the adult me in their regression. 

Then another friend told us what she saw in her past life regression.  (This friend was a Reiki master and was very intuitive.)  In that lifetime, she was a captain (male) of a ship.  In her regression, the captain was visiting a friend ** who was a psychic medium.  (**The friend who saw me as a child in the above.  In the current lifetime she was a psychic medium.)  The medium's place was built on a ground slightly higher than the street.  Through the window, they saw a procession of people wearing habits.  When they came close, the leader of the procession slightly levitated to the level that they stood, and greeted them with a smile.  She said that both of them (the captain and medium) recognized that it was me.  The setting of her dream was in the old time in England / Europe.

Her regression of me was interesting because I had quite a few dreams in that setting,  i.e. not in modern time setting.  I visited children in the hospital.  The strange part was I did not seem to go through doors.  I flew in from the window.  I was there to heal children that were sick.  Since I did not see any nurse or doctor in the room, I must have visited the child when he / she was alone.  In some dreams, I was a guest of prestigious families.  I was there to give counsel.  The dreams were beyond me or my imagination.  I had not talked about these dreams to my family or my friends.  

I loved stories.  True of not, we all heard some interesting stories that day.  The teacher of the circle saw us and many others on a mountain going through an ancient ritual / ceremony; we wore dresses and had flowers on our heads.  I could not recall other details that she said.

I was neutral to what was said of me.  

In a zoom meeting hosted by two very experienced hypnotherapists, one person asked if they had come across someone who claimed to be the reincarnation of Jesus.  Both of them immediately said 'yes'.  There had been over ten clients who came to them thinking that they were Jesus.  The hypnotherapists assured that Jesus had not been reincarnated.  Some people totally believed that what came through regressions must be true.  It was not necessary so.  In another zoom meeting, a woman said she had learned she lived in Jesus' time.  Now she felt differently about herself.  She saw those she knew were not living the Christ way.  She wanted to know what her life purpose was.  She was surprised to receive similar advice from different psychics / channels that hosted the meeting - Jesus asked her not to judge others or think that her friends were not living the Christ way. (I forgot the exact words. The Christ way are my words. 😊) 

With our ego, sometimes we got an elevated sense of self when we heard this or that about ourselves.  For examples, one had been a king, an emperor, a queen, a prince/princess, a known historical figure, an advanced being, a starseed / a being from another planet, or had an archangel / a known ascended master / a legendary mythical figure as a spirit guide.  It served to remind ourselves that we were (are) equal by nature.  We were all students and teachers unto one another.  Without students, there would be no teacher.  A performer needed the audience.  A beautiful flower stood out because of the complementing leaves.

Anyway, with the past life regression incident surfacing in my mind, I re-read the email from that center.  I realized the speaker that Friday might be able to give me some answers.  Before I slept, I talked to my guides.  I had not gone out at night alone for months.  Though I knew my son had plan for Friday, I decided to ask him if he could drive me there.  When he came home on Wednesday night, I talked to him about it.  He immediately said he would change his plan and take me to the center.

It was a good gathering.  The small center was filled with people.  They had to keep adding chairs.  Some people had to stand through the talk.  It felt good sitting among people again.  I could feel energy all around me.  

Did I get any answer that Friday night?  No.  When the gathering was over, I waited until some people left.  I talked to the speaker quietly.  He said he did not know much about lineages and there were many lineages in that place.  He was patient and honest.  I thanked him and left.  I was glad that I attended the gathering, and was not anxious when I talked to the speaker. 

The heart warming or awakening moment happened hours earlier.

My son came home from work around 5 p.m.  (Most days he came home around 4 p.m.)  He normally did not eat much at work, and I had some food ready when he was home.  We planned to leave for the center around 6 p.m.  While he was eating, I decided to turn on the computer.  I did not read all the emails I received everyday.  Therefore I had a number of emails left unread.  That afternoon I happened to read an email that I had received on Feb. 27, 2025.  It was a message from Master Kuthumi channeled through Natalie Glasson of the OmNa School.  The title of the message was Tips for Manifestation by Master Kuthumi.  When I read to certain part of the message, I could not help but smiled sheepishly.  How timely the message was!  I did not read it on the day I received it.  I had not gone to any gathering for months.  And, I happened to read the following in the afternoon that I asked my son to drive me to a spiritual center.

If you're trying to manifest new friends or a loved one, and yet you are choosing to stay in your home or only going to places that you always go to, then you are blocking and hindering the manifestation, whereas, if you choose to go out and meet new people and go to new places, you are creating pathways for the manifestation to enter into your reality.  You are becoming a power force for the manifestation.

It is often that there is a need to step outside your comfort zone, and in doing so, you create liberation for yourself but also energy and a boost for the manifestation.

I asked my son to listen as I read this part of the message aloud.  He laughed hearing the words.  

He knew I wanted to go places and join gatherings, yet I often said this / that place was too far away.  I felt anxious going to new places.  When he offered to drive me, I declined because I knew he was not interested in those meetings.  I told him I wanted to have a few like-minded friends so that we could go places together.  I prayed to find my tribe or meet new truthful friends.  Yet, I stayed home and waited as what Master Kuthumi said.  Meanwhile, I wondered why the divine did not answer my prayer.  Are my friends going to drop from the sky?  How laughable! (Well, to be able to laugh at myself is a good quality.  My son who did not laugh much had always wondered why I felt joy in many situations.)

Since that night, I had gone to other places / gatherings.  Thank you, Master Kuthumi, my guides, angels, and Natalie Glasson.

With love, I share my experience 'as is'.  I hope the message from Master Kuthumi will help some people like me.

Many blessings,

Recognizing Moments of Wonder / Magic is a blessing to ourselves

Greetings!

I came out of a store with 2 bags and the receipt in my left hand.  I had the keys (incl. the car key) in my right hand.  I opened the trunk of my car.  While I was putting the two bags into the trunk, the wind blew the receipt away.  I chased after the receipt.  It was a cold, windy day.  My running toward the receipt could not match the speed of the blowing wind.  In desperation, I yelled at the receipt, "STOP!"  I caught the ridiculousness of my action, and at that very moment, I saw the receipt stopped where it was!  The wind was still blowing, but the receipt remained still on the ground.  A smile had begun to form on my face when I caught my silliness of asking the receipt to stop flying away; then, it blossomed into a smile of awe and gratitude.  I walked forward and picked up the receipt.  I thanked my angels and guides.

On a hot, humid day last summer, I went to a store to buy grocery.  I came out of the store with many bags of groceries.  In two of the bags were four boxes of popsicles and a container of ice cream; they were the brands I liked, and, they were on sale.  I knew it might not be a good idea to buy them because they might no longer be frozen by the time I got home.  I convinced myself the frozen goodies will be fine because I would drive home right away instead of going to one more store as planned.  While I was loading the groceries into the car trunk, rain began to pour.  In the car, I had to turn on the windshield wipers at full speed because rain was pouring.  In my heart, I said, "Oh, no!  How am I going to bring the popsicles and ice cream home?  I don't want to get myself soaked!"  I prayed for the rain to slow down.  The rain was pouring in full force as I got off the main road and turned into the driveways of the apartment buildings.  I drove past the apartment building next to ours.  I said out loud, "Please stop raining!  I don't want the popsicles and ice cream to melt!"  In the pouring rain, I turned into the parking lot.  I parked my car.  Right then, the rain stopped!  In disbelief, I opened the car door.  I put my hand out, and not a single drop of rain fell on my hand!  In joy and gratitude, I sang my 'thank you' song *.  "Thank you!  Thank you! Thank you, thank you . . . . "  (* In moments like this, I sang 'thank you' in my heart because I was outside.  Whenever I had a good day shopping, I sang 'thank you' song after I was home.  Sometimes my older son joined in the singing too because 'joy is contagious'.)

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

I had other past unexplainable experiences, but the old ** me could not recognize the magic of those moments.    

** When I had the mystical experiences in the last quarter of 1999, I knew nothing about spirit guides / angels.  Some time in the year 2000, I began to read many spiritual books so as to find answers to my experiences.  The December 2001 reading by a known angel channel answered some of my questions.  The 'Night Vision - Pieces of A Dream' - an incredible phenomenon  helped me to recognize the magic and wonders of life.  Therefore, when I said the old me, I meant the me before all of these happened.

I had this experience when I was a child.  After taking a bath, with my arm extended and hand faced upward, I said, "Give me the towel!"  The next thing I knew the towel was in my hand.  (The towel used to hang on a bar a little distance from the bathtub.)  For a second, I wondered what had happened.  I had never said "Give me the towel" before.  I did not understand why I did what I did.  I did not say anything about it to my family.  I remembered that incident, but did not know what to make of it.

One winter morning in the restaurant years, my husband, our younger son and I were in the restaurant getting things ready before opening time.  My husband could not take off his jacket because the zipper got stuck.  Our son tried to help him.  I was doing what I had to do such as filling the steam table with water and getting other things ready.  At one point, my son said, "Mom, I cannot help Dad to take off his jacket because the zipper is stuck right below his neck!"  In a hurry, I leaned forward with my fingers pointing toward where they stood and chanted "Namo Amituofo".  Right then, I heard my son exclaimed, "Mom, how did you do that?  Your hand had not even touched Dad's jacket!"  My son saw the zipper unstuck and slid down smoothly right in front of his eyes.  I shrugged my shoulders because I had no answer to his question.  I leaned forward because they stood by the other corner of the steam table.  Therefore, I did not see what happened.  I knew "Namo Amitufo", but had no idea what prompted me to chant that.  Afterward, we continued to do what needed to be done.  We did not gather to acknowledge the moment of wonder or give thanks to the Loving Divine as in The Divine knows what will happen and an earth angel awaits .

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~  

In Stories of Birds, Bees, and other signs from the Divine , I shared some wonderful experiences too.  I would always remember the afternoon we visited the city park for the first time.  I had hoped to see lots of white birds ( seagulls) flying above the artificial body of water, but was disappointed that I did not see any.  My husband explained to me that I should not have expected to see any seagull there.  I closed my eyes.  I said in my heart, "But, I have come to see the seagulls!"  I continued to walk along the body of water.  Suddenly, a few white birds came, and then more and more white birds came.  They put on a show flying gracefully in the air.  I was grateful and joyful beyond words.  After the first visit, we went to the park once in a while, I saw ducks, but did not see white birds again.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

Some people might brush off those experiences as wishy-washy experiences or might consider those incidents just happened by coincidence.  It was their opinion.  It was fine.  I might have the same opinion if I had not gone through the experiences I had in the last 20 plus years.  How true it was that Life Must Be Experienced !  If not for the purpose of this blog, I would have kept most of this kind of personal experiences to myself.

In my Dec. 2001 reading, I learned the names of my spirit guides and angels.  I learned they were (are) always present to love and support me; I could ask XXX (one of my angels) to bring in the vast experiences of God / the Loving Divine.  I am grateful for the loving presence of my angels and guides.

Do you recognize the moments of wonder / magic in your life?

Ask your angels and guides to bring in more touches of God / the Loving Divine.  Recognizing the wonders / magic / grace / beauty in life is a blessing to ourselves.  The more we recognize, the more joy we live in.  No matter what happens in the outside world, we know our connection with the Divine, and ALL IS WELL.

 

Love and Blessings,

Prophecies, and What We Need The Most At This Time - 3

Greetings!

Some days had gone by since I published my last post Prophecies, and What We Need The Most At This Time - 2 .  One night, I prayed for inspiration.  I asked for truth and wisdom to come through because I really wanted to finish this post before the end of February.  In the morning, the dream of Be a Spark of PEACE and the post The War between LIGHT and Darkness came to my mind.

Before these two posts came to my mind, I had considered what we needed the most at this time was for us to center in PEACE.

I had the dream of Be a Spark of PEACE on March 2, 2024.  At the time I was working on two other posts, but had a hard time of finishing them.  In the dream, I felt the gathering took place in another dimension, and the words from the man 'Be a spark of peace' was of vital importance.  I eventually chose to publish it as the first post of 2024.

I re-read the post.  In view of the present situations in USA, the guidance in that post was as relevant if not more relevant now than then.  Below were the last two paragraphs in that post -

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.

Writing The War between LIGHT and Darkness was an experience for me.  I got the title of the post on April 30, 2024.  It took me quite some time to finish the post.  Many times I stopped writing because I did not know what to write next.  Instead of feeling frustrated as I sometimes did, I allowed myself to write when I felt inspired.  As a result, the post might seem unorganized / unfocused, or looked like a piece of cloth made up of many different patches.  Thank you for your patience.  I  was focused.  I could feel the importance of writing that post.

In that post, I wrote -                  

In our human mind, we might view a war as a conflict between two countries or more; we might consider the shooter in a mass shooting as the only culprit in the horrific crime; we might be dismayed by the increase in violence and unrest, yet believed we could do nothing about it 'because it is what it is'.  However, there could be more to what happened than how it might seem on the surface.

The so-called angel channel thought that the angels worked with her.  A man's energy was wrecked after going to her for healing sessions.  Another person's mind was flooded with negative emotions after going to her for a session.  My husband believed in what he read in a Chinese newspaper.  He thought the master was truly god-like, and fell under the control of a dark entity / dark force.  The truth is  Everything Is Energy .  Dark entities / dark forces were very much involved in the reality we were in.

Dark forces thrilled in creating chaos and mass destructions in our world.  They planted fear and magnetized fear.  Dictators / politicians that had unquenchable thirst for power might unknowingly or knowingly fell under their influence and joined in their evil plots.  They raised wars that caused lots of deaths and much suffering.  Dark forces were energized when the world was in turmoil.  They fed on the negative energies such as hatred, fear, pain, anger, and sadness.  Like draws like, people that were full of anger / hatred / jealousy, those that were extremely greedy and selfish, those that held evil intent, and those with no principles / virtues that would do anything for money easily fell under the control of the dark forces to do harm on a large scale.  

During this time of purification, we go through extraordinary earth and climate changes.  The dark forces on the astral plane are not exempt from purification.  In fact, the purification in the astral plane is The War between the Forces of LIGHT and the forces of Darkness.  The dark entities and dark forces in the astral plane must be cleansed before the dawning of a new age.  The dark forces want to live on.  They are in full force, and enlist evil people on earth such as dictators and war mongers to do their bidding.    

I published The War between LIGHT and Darkness in June, 2024.  The shaded sentences above had kind of described the wars/situation in the Middle East and the current chaotic situations in USA.

Many people in USA are living under a thick cloud of fear, worries, and uncertainty.  Tens and thousands of federal employees have been laid off which will in turn having an effect on many businesses.  Hopefully, those that feel that they are being fired for no proper reason stand up and join together, and may judges of good conscious uphold the law of justice.    

On the positive side, more and more people are standing up for the right of the people.  It is with hope that in time the power of the people will remind some government officials that they are elected to serve the people, and not the other way around.

What do we need the most at this time?

For the ones that are willing, be an ambassador of peace.  Look at all with peace and love including those who may have realized their mistake in creating the current political climate.  Your acceptance of them and your kind words of wisdom may help them more than you can imagine.

A couple of days ago, this suddenly came to me while I was watching TV.  

Submission to dictatorship in not a good choice or even an option, for in the long run, it would be harder to get out and reclaim freedom.  

I wonder if this thought / advice is about Ukraine.  Or is it about somewhere else.  What do you think?  

Love and Blessings,

Q of D

Prophecies, and What We Need the Most At This Time - 2

Greetings!

I would like to start this post with words of wisdom from my guides in The 'real beauty' of life is 'what you do not know' published on 9/23/2011 -

You want to know what's to come before it comes.  You want us to confirm what you think you know.  The 'real beauty' of life is 'what you do not know'.  For instance, if you know you will be very rich in May, you will look forward to May.  What happens in between now and May you will not handle them with emotions of not knowing.

With not knowing, you will handle whatever happens with creativity.  You will deal with them with your true emotions.  And to do that - living your life truthfully - is what life is all about.

I began writing this post on Jan. 23, 2025.  I just realized I received the above guidance on Jan. 23, 2003 which was exactly 22 years ago!  In  It is the not knowing that makes life intriguing , I shared some interesting experiences of not knowing too.

I supposed it was our human nature that we wanted to know what lay ahead.  If we searched online, we might find lots of videos on what were to come.  The end of time talks were nothing new.  Decades ago, I heard this story.  A woman lived in fear because she believed in the 'end of time' talks that she had heard.  She spent her money getting ready for 'what were to come'.  She died when she was around 40 years old.  People found her basement filled with packs and packs of bottled water, lots of canned food, and equipment for survival.  In another news many years ago, a group of people came to USA from another place.  They gathered on a mountain top.  Their (cult) leader had told them that a spaceship would come to pick them up by a certain date; they were the chosen ones to be saved.  That date came to pass.  They eventually went home.  

I did not say all prophecies were false.  There had been notable true prophets throughout history.  However, we should not simply believe in everything that others said particularly words that caused us to live in fear.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

In my previous post, I wrote -

The guest speaker's dreams did not stir fear in my heart.  Pease note that it did not mean I disputed his dreams.  I decided to join the meeting with an open heart.

The host had sent out emails inviting others to email him before the meeting what they had received in dreams or visions about what were to come.  He would compare the data to the speaker's dreams.  The host himself had read many books on prophecies and earth changes.

When zoom started, the host introduced a woman who corroborated with the guest speaker's dreams.  If I heard correctly, she did not live in USA.  I supposed she might have similar dreams / visions / she could be a psychic.  

The guest speaker began by sharing some of his stories that we had already learned from the host's email and attachment.  Later, he talked in depth about what the world would look like after the mass destruction and the safe havens.  He said there would be only a few safe havens, and his country was one of them.  He suggested for people to move there so that they would be saved.  He shared his views why USA and its people would come to a horrific tragic end as he saw in his dreams. 

When I wrote to this point, I felt I should pause before I continued.  I did not want to put this brother in a negative light.  He joined the meeting believing that a nuclear war was imminent, and wanted to warn others ahead of time.  As far as I knew, he did not gain anything by joining the meeting.    

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~  

I had wanted to go straight to 'what we need the most at this time'.  I did not want to write about the guest speaker's personal views of USA which might put him in a negative light.  That was the reason for the pause in writing.  However, I had come to understand the value of sharing his views.  His views / experiences mirrored part of us in our reality.  In truth, his experiences were not just his experiences.  If we set aside our judgment, we could all learn something from OUR experiences.

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

The guest speaker told us what he saw in his dreams - USA was totally destroyed and its people were massacred by people from different countries.  He said it was because USA had done lots of wrong to other countries and their people.  Hearing what he said, I realized his dream world might have been tainted by his personal views.  Everything Is Energy .  What he held in his mind (i.e. his views of USA) could have been reflected in his dreams.  (In The Conclusion of the Great Gray Cat , all of us in the family had dreamed of the cat after he moved on, and our dreams were different.)   

As grown ups, we saw ourselves as independent individuals. (Definition of independent - free from outside control; not depending on another's authority).  

However, our upbringing as well as our experiences had an effect or even an impact in how we looked at the world and life (e.g. the environment we grew up - the country we lived in, our culture, the society, church / temple, religion / no religion, what we learned from our parents / teachers / schools, our experiences with our family / relatives / friends / others and etc.).  At times we formed judgment / wrong views, but were not conscious that we did.  (e.g. In She loves her daughters more than her son , the waitress formed a view against her son simply because of other people's experiences.  In A talk among girls about the Criteria of an Ideal Husband, some girls were not aware that they had let a wrong view take root in their mind.)

I must add that some * people that lived under extreme dictatorship might not / could not be as free or as independent as they could be.  Sometimes they were being brainwashed since childhood through the educational system.  (*Some only.  There were always free thinkers that did not abide to what they were told, and fought for their freedom from whatever harsh conditions they were born into.)    

The speaker had told us he was in his 50 s.  USA and the country where he was born had long regarded each other as the prime enemy.  When he was in his late teens / around 20, that country dissolved into different countries.  By then, he had probably taken in the political views of his country about USA.  He now lived in one of those countries that declared independence during the dissolution.

The brother was not any different from us.  We had all taken in other views (incl. political) as if they were our own, e.g. a country's political stance, views from our family / friends / the society, and even cult leaders' / dictators' views.  In order to understand his views about USA, I could not simply think that he was wrong.  Upon contemplation, I realized he was not alone in his views against USA.      

The 2001 9/11 Terrorists Attacks came to my mind.  I remembered I was shocked and sadden because of what happened.  Every morning before I went to the restaurant, I sat in front of the TV watching the latest news.  At night I did the same after coming home.  Sometimes tears flowed down my face listening to the stories.  How could the terrorists do that?  My heart went out to those that had lost their loved ones during the attacks.  I prayed a lot at night.  I did not remember much about USA anti-terrorist wars in other countries.  I did remember I cheered as most did seeing the statue of Saddam Hussein, the dictator of Iraq, being pulling down to the ground in 2003.  By then, I was going through my own challenge watching my husband spent his time practicing the moves day and night.  Terrorist attacks still drew my attention, and I continued to pray for people that suffered when such incidents happened.  

The brother's words about USA led to my pause in writing.  As days went by, I realized there was far more to terrorism / hatred toward another country / its people.

In the name of righteousness, many wars were declared.  However, were there not wars fought mainly to maintain a country's political dominance in the world?  Yet, the same country / countries had turned a blind eye to great injustice such as the massacre of a certain race in another country.  There were also wars started for revenge.  Who suffered the most during wars?  The common people.  How many times we watched on the news that men and women held onto the dead bodies of their loved ones crying in the war torn zones.  Most people carried the sadness for the rest of their lives, but resigned to the brutality of wars.  Some grew up in hatred waiting for their time to avenge.  They blamed the country / countries that bombed their country, destroyed their homes, and caused the deaths of their loved ones /  friends.  Hatred blurred the sense of right or wrong.  Later, they joined terrorist groups or carried out terrorist acts on their own.   They did not realize their terrorist acts killed innocent people just as what happened in a war.  

Like the guest speaker, many of us had taken in a country's political stance or the doctrine of a church / a religion as if they were our own.  In a political climate where one country easily called another country the enemy, we might have unknowingly regarded another nation and its people as our enemies too.  Therefore, it should not be that hard to understand why the guest speaker said USA and its people had done lots of wrong to the other countries.  Many cheered after the death of Saddam Hussein the dictator, and felt victorious over terrorism.  BUT, most of us might not have given much thought / attention to the price of war - the innocent lives that were lost.  I searched online, and learned that 4.5 to 4.7 million people had died directly and indirectly as a result of the post-9/11 anti-terrorists wars in different countries, including over 7,000 service members of USA.  How would you / we feel if we were the ones that lived through the wars seeing our homes were being destroyed and our loved ones getting killed?  

In August 2021, US withdrew its military from Afghanistan.  After a long 20 years, the wars seemed to be over.  Was the war against terrorists really over?  The soldiers came home, but many carried the scars of wars physically and / or mentally for the rest of their lives.  Could we have taken another approach instead of starting a war?

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

After the guest speaker talked, people were quiet.  It might be we had not expected to hear what he said of USA.  One person asked when the nuclear war would take place.  The speaker said it would happen in 2 to 3 weeks.  I had something to say, but did not want to raise my hand.  Knowing my English was not sufficient, I hoped and prayed someone else would speak up in response to what the speaker said. 

A few minutes before the meeting was about to end, the host asked one last time if others had any questions or wanted to say something.  I finally raised my hand.  I asked the speaker if it was possible that what he perceived as a nuclear war was an explosion of a natural cause.  He said it was possible.  I was nervous.  I did not recall all that I said, but my messages were always that of 'peace and do not live in fear'.  Unexpectedly, I heard someone cheered after I finished talking.  It kind of eased my nerves.  It was not that I was proud.  What was there to be proud of anyway?

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

I paused writing this post because I did not want to put the brother in a negative light.  While trying to understand why he felt that way towards USA, the 2001 9/11 Terrorists Attacks came to my mind.  During the restaurant years, my husband and I worked 7 days a week from morning to night.  When we arrived home, it was almost 11 p.m.  Except during the 9/11 period, we did not spend much time watching TV.  Therefore, I knew very little about the other wars that USA was in.  In retrospect, the pause in writing and the surface of the 9/11 incidents in my mind were very much in divine order.

Many of us went through life seldom examined our views / attitude / patterns.  At times we thought that we were in the right, and others were wrong.  If we examined closely and truthfully, we might find that we were not that right either.  In writing this post, I realized it helped to listen to others with an open heart, and the importance of spending some time to examine the views we held. 

These days the world seemed to be in chaos particularly in USA.  Some of my friends said they had stopped watching the news.  

Sorry, it takes me a long time to finish a post.  I hope to finish 'What we need the most at this time - 3' before the end of February.  (Next post What We Need the Most At This Time - 3 )

Peace and Love, 

Q of D

Prophecies, And What We Need the Most At This Time -- 1

Greetings!

Happy 2025!

I had been working on another post.  However, a few days into 2025, I was prompted to write a post on Prophecies, And What We Need the Most At This Time.   

                                            ~       ~       ~       ~       ~       ~

Weeks before the new year, I received an email with a sense of urgency for people to attend from a spiritual group.  

This group met in-person as well as on zoom.  Two to three years ago, the host opened his home and welcomed all including strangers to come for supper twice a week.  He prepared wholesome food for those that came and asked for nothing in return.  His pure intention of service was greatly admired.  In time, some people willingly contributed to the cost of food, some brought additional dishes / desserts, and some helped preparing food as well as cleaning up after supper.  Afterward, they sat down and talked.  I could imagine what a wonderful gathering it was to sit among friends and talk freely.  At 7:30 p.m., the host turned on the computer and a big screen TV to welcome people who joined on zoom.  Every week he invited guest speakers from different places to share their stories and their gifts / abilities.  The speakers might join on zoom or in person.  I did not live in that state.  I joined them on zoom every now and then.

With the email was an attachment of the upcoming guest speaker's bio and detailed information as to why there was this sense of urgency.  The guest speaker had a sound educational background.  He graduated from one of the top universities in his country with a degree in science.  As a boy, he had dreams that seemed so real yet beyond his imagination.  As time went by, he realized his dreams were foretelling.  What he dreamed of actually happened in later days / weeks / years.  Some events were personal while most were not.  He dreamed of global and political events before they took place.  He listed many global events that he had dreamed of before they happened.  In time, he got a hand of interpreting the time frame of when his dream(s) might take place.  He said he had been shown the map of the future in which masses of land and many countries no longer existed.  He had seen horrific scenes of destructions as well as the safe havens after the disasters.  Recently, he had terrifying dreams of nuclear war.  He was shown the countries involved and the massive destructions that resulted.  He felt the war was imminent: it would take place within 2 to 3 weeks.  He tried to reach out to different sources including governments and groups he found online.  That was how he got in touch with the host of this group.       

The email about the guest speaker and his prophecy reminded me of the 2008 incidents when I lived in another state.

In the last quarter of 2008, a woman from another state came to the small church.  She said she had a near-death experience.  Afterward, she began to channel messages that she said were from the angels.  The church allowed her to share her messages after Sunday service.  She also offered healing sessions saying the angels worked with her to help people during the ascension.  At the time, some people were anxious about the coming of 2012 and the ascension.  As a result, she soon acquired a following inside and outside of the church.  On Nov. 30, 2008, she urged people to stay behind after the Sunday service because she had received some urgent messages from the angels.  I was not among those that listened to her messages.  Something totally unexpected happened to me that Sunday.  Anyway, her messages were words of fear, and her prophecies turned out to be false.  Some people found themselves in a worse state than they were after going to her healing sessions.  Please view the following posts on what happened.

           Part 1 - The Unexpected Incident 

           Part 2 - The Gathering

           Part 3 - The Dream of 99 on 4 corners of Big Dollar Bills

           Part 4 - Afterthought of the Whole Experience

In my post The War between LIGHT and Darkness published in June, 2024, I touched on what happened too.  Like my husband, the woman had unknowingly fallen under the control of the dark forces when they used the tactic of inflating her ego / importance.  A brother who had gone to her healing sessions found his energy was wrecked afterward.  He said she had told some of her clients that they were this or that important figure mentioned in the bible / history - the same tactic that the dark forces used on her.

Though I was nicknamed the Queen of Dreams, I was (am) not an expert in dreams.  I did not write down my dreams all the time.  Some days I felt I did not have any dream (i.e. I could not recall any dream), but my dream experiences were definitely part of my life.  Therefore, I could relate to the guest speaker's anxiety about his recent dreams.  

In What do we do when we have dreams of fear , I woke up repeating the fear in my dream.  The fear manifested into reality.  I learned a lesson of fear and its effect.  When I woke up with trepidation on another morning, I knew to center in peace, and prayed for protection and grace.   

The guest speaker's dreams did not stir fear in my heart.  Pease note that it did not mean I disputed his dreams.  I decided to join the meeting with an open heart.  

The host recorded all the zoom meetings.  I understood his possible reason for recording the meetings.  He might have to send a copy / link to the guest speakers and those who might want to watch the meeting / interview at a later time.  However, it kind of deterred me from speaking. 

As expected, the email drew some attention.  More people showed up in person and on zoom than usual.  I saw some new faces, and learned they were psychics, healers, and channels.  I smiled hearing a healer said she lived in the same state that I lived.  I always felt happy seeing those on zoom that came from my state.      

Weeks had gone by since that zoom meeting.  The nuclear war did not happen as the brother had foreseen.  I had not thought of writing about the meeting.  I respected the brother / the host, and this was his zoom meeting.

After I received the prompting to write this post, I re-read my posts Be a Spark of PEACE and The War between LIGHT and Darkness .  

In 2024, I had a dream that took place in another dimension.  Later, I received some information about the possible changes that were coming in 2024 from a friend.  On the Internet, there were lots of talks / predictions about 2024 and beyond.  Many people were deeply concerned as what would happen in 2024.  As a result, I decided to share the dream as my first post in 2024. (Re Be a Spark of PEACE )   

Months later, I was inspired to write The War between LIGHT and Darkness .  This post was published on June 12, 2024, but it took me many, many days to finish writing it.  As I re-read it, the post was very much a continuum of Be a Spark of PEACE .

In view of the happenings around the world, I realized how relevant the prompting was, and, I should write about the zoom meeting mentioned above.

I shall continue in my next post. (Link to What We Need the Most At This Time - 2 )

Many Blessings,
