Clare and jpbluesky, I read "conversations..." when it first came out many years ago. I had already begun my own personal spiritual journey and it so affirmed and validated all that I was feeling. It was hard to control the emotions and joy that I felt that someone else was experiencing similiar things and was able to articulate so much of it in a very original manner. The book was not my starting point, but my green light to keep moving in the direction I was headed and the nod that I could trust my inner stirrings and guidance.
My brother taught me F.E.A.R. before that. Along with H.A.L.T., which is hungry, angry, loney, tired. When you are out of balance, grumpy, out-of-sorts you HALT and ask yourself, "Am I hungry? Angry? Lonely? Tired? Sometimes the answer is a simple thing to take care of, but we are all so busy that most of us lose touch with both our physical sensations and basic needs and our emotional ones. So, be still, focus and take care of YOU. By the way, HALT works wonderfully on children and teaches them a valuable tool.
Many thanks to all who were praying concerning Katrina...all that focused energy works miracles everyday!
We are in this all together and fellowship with open minds and hearts is such a comfort and support!
meadowlark, I think you are right on target...as the hurricane stirred so did we...we are all connected...everything!!! which is why we can't look on others pain and not feel it too. I'm with you...love is ACTION. I'm reminded of Mother Teresa (i think) when she said, "We can't all do great things, but we can all do small things with great love". You all do it here everyday!
My cup overflows.

Kim, agree with you totally about "conversations". It was my beginning, but has led to so many other quests and answers as well.
Hadn't heard of HALT yet, but I think that's a great one too! Thanks!!
Balance is what it's all about. Feeling a bit out of kilter myself today, so a very timely reminder. So much going on in the world, and then my own personal stuff that it's alot to take in, isn't it? We must balance personal needs with the desire to provide for others' needs too. BALANCE. yep.

Kim, You hooked me...I am going to order that book! So glad you were spared the wrath of this storm, and all other Louisiana farmgirls. Thanks to all my sweet "sistas" for their support and prayer! I love you all! ((((((HUG))))))

A dear friend of mine sent me this website today - what a coincidence! I have not looked it over entirely yet, but felt the urge to share it with you all. Love to you....

Hey Farm Girls!
In an earlier post Meadowlark said (I paraphrase) "perhaps we are starting to feel these earth changes and events." I concur with this
statement and have worked with a Vedic psychic who has been predicting that 2005 will be the most eventful year of our lifetimes.
She firmly believes in collective love and positive thinking as a way to heal the world.
For those who are interested, go to www.galacticcenter.org. Joni Patry is a very stable, soccer mom type of person as you will see at her website. She is not a wild-eyed, freaky type of person at all.
I have found her work to be fascinating.

Hey Farm Girls!
I just wanted to add one more thing in regard to the Galactic Center site.
I just went back and read Joni's predictions for August, 2005. I quote, "the new moon occurs in the sign of Cancer with Saturn. This can indicate feelings of depression and sadness. It is also a reality check for our nation."

September Meadowlark,
This is the month where many abrupt, sudden changes will occur. Uranus in Aquarius is opposed the New Moon in Leo. There will be a boost for the economy. Transiting Jupiter will be conjoined natal Saturn in the USA chart. This will bring positive changes for our government and decisions made concerning our future.
Changes in the churches and beliefs will create many shifts in ideas and consciousness. There will be more freedom and acceptance for differences in beliefs. This will be the beginning of spiritual and religious transformations worldwide. Interest in metaphysical subjects such as astrology, mediums and psychics will be on the rise in the media. Answers to explain the unexplainable through science will be developed from a completely different way of understanding. There is a breakthrough in science and consciousness changing all preconceived ideas. This is a revolution in awareness that will provide new hope. Many will have to change all their previous beliefs, as if we just discovered the world is round instead of flat.
Jupiter will change signs September 27 into Libra. Jupiter in Libra will be a very positive change, for Libra is the sign of justice and peace. Jupiter, for the first time in many years is out of aspect from the influence of malefic limiting energies of both Saturn and Rahu. These two planets limit and spoil Jupiter from bestowing its benefic energies. Jupiter is the planet of protection and grace and now that it is out of the clutches of these influences it will produce great protection and much luck and fortune on many. It will also reveal the truth for many bringing peace.

| The most comforting thing I know in times of trouble is what the Bible says, "Be still and know that I am God" We don't have to handle it all alone. |
