Laughter

Monday, February 13th, 2006

Laughter is one of the most beautiful sounds on earth, besides birds, wind, rain and, well, a bunch of other sounds too. But I love laughter.

For one thing, it relieves stress. Or in my case, like Izzy on Grey’s Anatomy, it can be inappropriate laughter. Say when my husband, Claude, hurts himself. I always ask first if he is bleeding or otherwise needs medical help and then I laugh until tears are streaming from my eyes. I really don’t want him to be hurt and I guess when he does get hurt it brings out the worst of slap stick for me. But I didn’t laugh when he had the stroke. However, I did laugh when he fell out of the hot tub onto the concrete and his head bounced. It scared me so badly and I couldn’t grab his legs to keep him from falling. Just in case you think I am some sort of sadistic weirdo, this was before the stroke. I made it over quickly in the hottub to look down at him and express my concern over whether he needed to go to the doctor. Then I burst into uncontrollable laughter. My poor little husband. I tried hard not to laugh. And I guess it was a stress reliever because I wasn’t the one on the concrete looking up.

Comedy is one of my favorite things. Because comedians make us look at the simplest things like me laughing at my husband’s expense. From a comedic angle everything is scruntized. One of my favorite comedians is Ellen because she is so humble with her comedy. She says her lines with a rhythm out of this world and then lays the laugh line out so easily that you almost listen for more but find yourself in uproarious laughter. Robin Williams has a sense of timing that is incredible and you have to listen intently to his every word.

There are a few things that I think God did extra nice for us. Laughter is one of them. Comedians are another.

Seeing things

Friday, February 10th, 2006

Without second sight, I don’t know how I would function. Surely not half as well as I do now. But I have a problem with it too. Most every time I see something, I question it. Logic dictates I do this. Maybe I even argue a little with the other side. That could be a Libra quality but I’m really not sure. It just seems logical to me to question things I am not really sure of. That way I don’t feel as if I am a sheep being led to the dinner table. As I have said before, “I thank God for my questioning mind.”

Another thing I am very grateful for is the continuing education I get with my second sight. For me, it is not really second to anything. It is first. As my ex-husband used to explain to me, “Who you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?” I believe me first and can be led to different views by someone who knows what they are talking about. But they have to prove it to me.

That’s why, when I see a ghost, I make sure that all the logical reasons for seeing one is in place. Now, sometimes that ghost can’t get any plainer and I know specifically what it is. But, sometimes, they come like one did the other day, having human form but with a watery translucence. I had to believe that was a ghost because it had weight. That was a new one for me. And every day I learn something new even if it is a new word.

Trust

Thursday, February 9th, 2006

Trust, in my belief, is not a possession that you want to give to others irreverently. But most give trust freely and then wonder what went wrong when it is thrown back into their faces.

To me, now, trust is like virginity. Though I am no longer a virgin, I am a trust virgin. People have to earn my trust now. Not only do I use my psychic ability but I watch new acqaintances for a while to make sure my trust, which is very dear to me, is being given to someone who truly deserves it.

My friends have my trust. I trust them to tell me if a dress looks good on me or if I am being bi—y even though I might not appreciate their total candor at the time. Trust is truth to me. Tell me a lie, even a little one, and you put a serious dent in my trust for you. I expect the same from others that I am willing to give myself. A friends trust is like a valuable savings account. You just keep on adding to the account and watching it grow.

One of the things I cherish most is the giving and the receiving of trust.

Here we go again!

Wednesday, February 8th, 2006

Got another question that I think will help others. So, please bear with me while I answer.

“My girlfriend claims that the ghost of her unborn brother is haunting her. She says that he appears as a man in his mid-20s and does things that hurt her. She wants to make him leave and has told him to leave many times but he doesn’t. Is there any way to force him to leave? Thank you for your help. John”

Did you know that my name means “of John?” I used to laugh about it. Now I have come to know that it was given to me before my birth as a part of my birthright from my friend, whom my mother and father never knew, John. If you have read my book, “Ghosts Talk,” then you know who he is but there is more to that story too.

Back to the question though. Ghosts do show themselves as aging sometimes. And sometimes they pick a particular time in their life that they loved as a way to appear to others. So it is entirely possible that your girlfriends brother could be showing himself as aging.

Now as to the ghost hurting her. In all my years of meeting ghosts I have never seen one try to hurt a live person. Of course, there have been tales of this throughout the ages and in Hollywood but I have never seen it.

What I have seen is people manifesting something they considered to be a ghost, giving it life and then hurting themselves because they felt some sort of guilt. For instance, and I am not saying this is true, but your girlfriend might feel guilty for living when her brother died or she might feel guilty for some other reason such as being psychic. If she can manifest something she feels is hurting her, she is definitely a gifted psychic. She will probably notice other things too, such as lights flickering, electrical anomalies, etc. Once she realizes that she is the creator of this manifestation, then she can make it leave her alone. The old addage, “I gave you life and I can take it away,” applies here.

Once your girlfriend gives up the self hurt, she can start psychically realizing much better in her life if she will let her ability grow in a positive manner.

Hope this helps. And keep us posted please.

A Reading

Tuesday, February 7th, 2006

Below is a blog comment I got and I felt that I should answer because it brings up a very good point.

“Hi Da Juana, I’m glad your feeling better, and I hope your friend feels better soon, too. It brings me great joy when I hear people say, “I’ll pray for you”. To me, prayer is very powerful - which brings me to my question…

I recently had a reading that was very discouraging. I left feeling very sad and hopeless. I asked the psychic if what she saw could be changed through prayer. She seemed very skeptical and said I could pray on it, but God isn’t some fairy godfather that could just wave His magical wand and take everything away. I’m very disappointed because I spent close to $100 on an hour reading that I just don’t feel good about. Toward the end of the reading, I think she saw that I was very disappointed and she mentioned that my guardian angel was with me- she gave me the name and color of the wings. I think she felt sorry for me because I started crying. I really thought God had guided me to her… Please share your thoughts on the future. Can prayer change the outcome of certain events? She seemed so firm…”

First, thank you for your prayers. They are really appreciated. Prayers can change events because the one making the prayer or asking for the prayer is willing to make a change. We are all creators because we are given that ability by God. Any time you don’t like a situation, all you have to do is make a choice to do something else.

I don’t know how many times I have told someone that I was reading for that I didn’t like the outcome if they didn’t change it. I also told them that they could. My reading is only a roadmap. You have free will and with free will comes the ability to change the reading.

Maybe God did lead you to this psychic because he/she wanted you to contact me so that others could learn from your situation. Absolutely nothing is set in stone not even the time of your death. Now, it is apparent that once you are born, you will die but the time is really up to you, even if it is on an unconscious level.

And, guess what, though I see guardian angels, not many have wings. That is not to say that they can’t but……Most look just like us. One of the messages I have given again and again is when you get a reading, you get what you pay for. Like you, you have no recourse but to feel as if you were taken because you gave good money to a person you are not sure of. Unless of course, some of her predictions start to come true for you. That’s why I have good psychics that work with me and that’s why I tell people not to give the psychic information until they tell you they see certain things. For instance, a good psychic, even if on the phone, will give you information you know they couldn’t have known without being psychic. I am one of the hardest people to read because I make the psychics who work with us work. They have to give me information on me and I wait until the reading is over to confirm anything they have said. If they are not good at what they do, then they don’t work with us.

Please don’t feel as if you did something wrong. You just learned something very valuable. And yes, prayer does work…..and, yes, you can change the outcome of your life. And, and this is very imp0rtant, a good psychic will always leave you with hope because, after all, our lives are really built on hope.

Hope this has answered your question to your satisfaction.

Patience

Monday, February 6th, 2006

Though I hear again and again I should be patient, I have never wanted this to be a lesson that I had to learn. I am patient as long as I am able to do what I want as soon as I want to do it. And I can’t see why others can’t do the same.

Sometimes I really get aggravated with people who tell me that they want us to do certain events together and then they can’t seem to get it together to do what they wanted. Me, I just go right into it. And don’t think that is my Aries moon sense of adventure either. It’s just that when I see something that needs to be done, I do it. Wish I could say the same for others.

Now this doesn’t mean that I think I should be guaranteed anything either. Working towards something you want is always the best. When you work hard and get a return for your work, the feeling is wonderful. You know how it feels. Like the other day. I worked in the flower garden planting bulbs. The only thing I got out of that was the satisfaction that I had done it and some sore muscles but this summer guess what I get. I get to look at those beautiful flowers. See, I am patient.

Thankfulness

Sunday, February 5th, 2006

Each day I find more and more to be thankful for. It may the look in Mysti’s eyes or a sweet word spoken from my sweet husband but there are so many things that I have for thankfulness. A sense of wonder is part of my life and I constantly find awe.

Listening to others speak to me even if they don’t know that they are sending me a message and getting the message is something that I am very thankful for.

Listening right now to my husband, in his office, listening to the song he says he wants at his funeral, Amazing Grace sung by Elvis. That and Peace in the Valley. Those are things to be thankful for.

Thank you God for this good day. As Native Americans say, “This is a good day to die.” Meaning life has been good and will only get better.

God

Saturday, February 4th, 2006

How could one not see God in everything?

Looking around only makes it more evident that God is in everything.

I hear people arguing over whether evolution or creationism is correct. In my beliefs both are. Science proves the existence of God in just about every way it turns. And God shows how science is correct too. If you don’t think so, just take a look at DNA. See how closely related we are to monkeys but yet we are extremely different. And everything else has many parts of the same DNA, meaning God is in everything, united but separate too just as humans and monkeys are.

Another item that always brings God to my mind is fetuses and it doesn’t matter what kind. At a couple of points in their life cycle, they all look the same, even have a tail. But then they continue to grow into whatever animal they were to become.

One of these days, science will not be seen as if in opposition to God. Instead it will prove that there is the thread of God woven through everything we ever hope to see. We are coming ever closer to that day.

Choices

Friday, February 3rd, 2006

I hear people say everyday something like, “I wish that hadn’t happened.” Even I am guilty of that. But I also know that I am guilty of being a creator. God gave me that ability. So when something happens that I don’t like I have to look at the source, being me, and see what thoughts I had that put that event into motion.

Learning that responsibility for oneself is the number one reason for living on earth is why we take a body, live a life and even die. And I remember that but, at times, I think we all backslide and feel sorry for ourselves. I know I have.

One of the biggest items I try to teach others is this, THOUGHT AND EMOTION MANIFEST. When we are down and out, feel sorry for ourselves and wonder why this is happening to us, after all we are good people and try to do for others too, we continue a horrible cycle. The day we think, I have had enough, and decide to make things better. Things start to get better. You can even feel a difference in your attitude. Emotion is very tanigble and added to thought, well, you know what I mean.

So for today and everyday, beleive that you can achieve all you want to. Keep to your positive thoughts and manifest all you want in your life.

Am I being too preachy? Maybe, I need to hear myself again.
