Yesterday, while working with a couple of women I know, one of which is a psychic, we began talking about different people, one being Princess Diana. I won’t tell you exactly what we were speaking of but I will tell you that the lady came to visit.

Generally, I don’t tell anyone when a celebrity or person who is well known comes to visit because to me that just seems a little hokey. But the reason that I am talking about this visit was because her message was so wonderful. And if I can remember the whole thing, I am going to share it.

The lady told me, and I am paraphrasing, that she was no longer upset with Charles or Camilla. They really don’t matter now, she told me. And she also told me that the way she died was of no consequence. It happened. She did relate to me that what she wanted everyone to remember was that she had tried to help others and she wanted the world to continue to do that sort of work. She also said that this work should not be limited to one situation such as AIDS, though that is a good one to worry about, but that each of us should try to help in our own way. Her words were that if each one of us chose to help just one other, the world would be a better place.

Princess Diana didn’t stay long but I liked her message. So I thought that I would let you hear what she told me.

Something I have always spoken with my clients about is the career path they have chosen. I may use all the adverbs to do a very good reading on their work or I may even give them a blow-by-blow detail of how to move up in the ranks. After all, that might be what they pay me for.

If they are happy with their careers, I don’t offer any other advice other than when they might be reaching another level or pay increase, that is unless they ask me to help them get to that next level. Then I offer information about how they can do so. And you might be surprised at some of the corporate leaders that have used my talents in order to position themselves.

That is part of my work and to me is all well and good but the most pleasure I get from this type work is when I help someone realize that work needs to be a delight as well as income. For me, my work is just what the doctor ordered. I love it. But for some not so fortunate, I always use these words to help them realize what would make them happy. I ask: if this was the last day of your life and you knew it but you had to work this whole day, what kind of work would you do? They generally get their answer pretty quickly and it doesn’t take a psychic.

Today, I am asking you if you this same question because I want you to look your life over and become happier. If you are contented, then your health is something you don’t have to worry about and you are nicer to yourself and others. So do yourself this favor and ask yourself this question. If you get an answer you don’t want to hear, start working towards making a better career for yourself even if you have to have more education to do so.

Let’s make this world a better place one person at a time.

People say that I am one of the oddities of the world because of my psychic abilities. I don’t think that I’m and oddity but others seem to think so because they perceive I am different.

With that in mind, I started looking at some real oddities. While sitting in my back yard, I watched as all the different butterflies socialized over a plethora of fine dining. And it made me think about how butterflies become butterflies. All of us know that a caterpillar starts this beautiful insect but did you know that the caterpillar has to die, become a liquid mush just like the earth was at one time when the first amoeba’s popped out of the water of life and be reborn in order to become that eye pleasing sensation. Now, that’s an oddity.

I can see how Native Americans must have felt watching them and giving them the adornment of reincarnation. God does have a way of recycling. And this method is one of the most beautiful.

Even bumblebees are oddities. Aerodynamically, they should be unable to fly but guess what? No one ever told them that they couldn’t.

Seeing a bald eagle overhead is an oddity but I swear I saw one the other day. Haven’t seen it since but saw the white head of a huge bird the other day. It might have been a straggler looking for it’s home but it was over my house.

And if you think about how you perceive others and events, then you will realize that we are not oddities. Perception is psychic.

Yesterday, while standing in my utility room and looking out the window at a beautiful watermelon colored crepe myrtle by my window, I saw the most amazing thing. It was a little bird, smaller than some hummingbirds. I thought it was a wren but am not sure. It was so tiny. Its head was not as big as my thumb.

At one point, I know she saw me but she continued working as if I was nothing more than one of the insects for which she so diligently searched. She went from branch to branch, looking under leaves for just the right bug. This little bird was not much bigger than some of the wasps that continued to dive bomb her without her being one bit concerned. Her beautiful gray back sloped down to a dark line of feathers lining her wings at the tips all the way to the dark tail. Did I say she was beautiful?

While she worked, I stopped and started thinking. Oh, I know. I do too much thinking, don’t I? But I thought about the poisons that some people use to kill bugs and how that would affect this beautiful creature of God. How she wouldn’t be able to slough it off. As you well know, I try to do everything organically but sometimes I do use a little poison for certain bugs. And the thought of her dying from something so seemingly benign as to just look for bugs really got to me. I don’t know if I could stand to think that I harmed her in any way.

My life is about helping others. This comes in many ways. Perhaps part of it is showing them that there is something to the psychic. Perhaps it is just helping a neighbor in the ordinary ways. But I am still a helper.

When someone asks for my help it is hard to turn him or her down, even if it is someone I have never met before. And even when they are being snide about my being a psychic. My husband says I would give away the farm and most likely I would if someone really needed it but…….and this is a big but…….I am tired of people thinking that I should give them what they want because I am a helper. Lately, when someone tries to take advantage of me, I am quick to tell them about it. Must have something to do with the moon.

For the last few days, while working, my phone has rung and someone on the end of the line has started off with, “I want to know….” As soon as I can get a word in edgewise, I tell the person that I charge for my time and by the way, also part of that charge is for the phone lines you just called in on, but I charge for my time. I would love to give you a free reading but you see, I have to eat, clothe my family, feed my dogs and pay for my house too. And I can’t do that if I continue to give my time away for free and pay your phone bill. By the way, I do a lot of giving my time away free, on radio and during my life. Also for crime prevention and help after the crime, whatever it may be. It is very hard for me not to help others even when they don’t ask. I love it. But there are times when you just have to say no. And some of those good people that call in tell me that I should do this for free and then without any common courtesy hang up on me. That leaves me being a little less than spiritual feeling.

For instance, the other day, an extremely rare day, I went shopping with a couple of friends, just to get out of the house for a little while. Most of the time, I don’t even think of me being a woman anymore because I continue to work the majority of the time. But here I am at the shopping mall getting out of my car and I see a little boy of about four come out from under the shopping garage by himself, cross the street without looking either way and take off up the sidewalk. Thank God, there were no cars coming. Like any mother, I turn around looking for his mother and see three women far up inside the garage. One of them is calling to the little boy telling him that he won’t get such and such if he doesn’t stop and wait on her. She could barely see him. Then I saw psychically a dark-haired man around five six or seven take the boy put him in a grayish-blue van and leave with him. Of course it wasn’t happening then but it would later.

My thought was that I had to do something then to create some apprehension in this child so that he didn’t get so far away from his mother and so that he would be more leery of waltzing off like that. And I did. I called to him and said, “You. Stop right there.” He took another step but looked at me fearfully. Then I said to him, “Get back to your mother right now and don’t ever try that again. Do you understand me?” The boy turned and started walking quickly back to his mother who was giving me a dirty look right then. And she didn’t stop but her mother, who was with her, instead of being angry with me, said thanks. They didn’t know who I was and I didn’t tell them, nor did I tell them what I saw, but I hope I put enough fear into that child that he stays close to his mother. You see I couldn’t stop what might happen later but I could, in my own way, help a little. And I didn’t mind taking the flack from the mother if it helped the boy later.

I know I sound very hard but like I told you the other day, I am taking stock of my life right now. And if I were giving you a reading and saw that you were letting others take advantage of you, I would tell you to stop it even though I believe that we are all neighbors on this planet and good neighbors help each other. Obviously, I also believe that all mothers have to help one another. But back to me because I generally forget me most of the time, I am trying to see what I need to change in myself and then to make my life better. When you help yourself, you are better able to help others. Is there something in you that you think you need to change in order to live better spiritually because after all living is spiritual? And when we ignore ourselves, we ignore our spirituality.

Claude asked me to write today on a concern he has, global warming. He asked, “Is it real? Who will be affected most? Have we gone so far that we can’t recover?”

To him I answer, there is such a thing as global warming. We are in the midst of it right now. With all the disasters we have seen lately, we ought to take the earth’s warnings seriously. Like a dog who has been in the water, the earth does it’s best to shake off too many people because she knows that we have no regard for our planet home. We humans love to take and take. Sadly, in some of these respects, I am human too.

He asked what I see happening. Here it is. There will be more time elapse before we really feel that we can feel the effects of global warming. When that happens, we humans, in our usual manner, will try to stop what we started at the beginning of the industrial age. There will be more earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis and other unsettling events. There will also be something that appears to be a bomb on soil outside the US, possibly in Africa or Asia of a magnitude that we haven’t seen since Hiroshima. The after effects will cause the world, even the people who detonated it, to take a deep breath, exhale and say, “We have to stop this.” If they don’t, we will be past the point to help our earth. And did I say that the bomb might be detonated unintentionally? It may be a nuclear accident of some type.

Water eating away at the tail of South America will call more attention to this problem. Scientist will finally be able to say, without influence from those they receive grants from, that the earth has a problem. People will rush to help and find ways to do so but is it too little too late?

Will global warming magnify and destroy in my lifetime? I hear no but we need to stop it now. Do we have the resources to stop it now? Again, I hear that we do. Another titanic incident will make us take note.

Every once in a while I look my life over to see if I have done what I wanted to do before I cross over to the other side once again. In the last few weeks, I am doing that again. I guess it is because we are thinking of moving and also because I am probably due again. It generally happens before I go to sleep at night, while Claude is praying. At that time is when I usually look at my days anyway to make sure that I am living up to my own expectations. I suppose everyone does that too. Or maybe not but that is my way.

The quiet time right before sleep is when I can reassess my life and figure out if I want to change it. Then I go to sleep thinking of how I can make life better and how I can make myself a better person. In my dreams or out of body, people come to me from the other side and help to answer those questions for me. Sometimes live people now meet me on the other side, out of body, to do the same. Later, we live those déjà vu moments together. At those moments the memory of questions I asked comes flooding back along with the answers we received.

Though people generally don’t realize it, nighttime, either in dreams or when they are out of body, is one of the best times to get information on living better. That is a time when ghosts or dead people, whatever you want to call them, (I call them living) can talk with you the easiest. You may or may not even remember the conversation but your subconscious does.

One of these days when brain mappers really do get to see what is going on in people’s minds while they sleep, they will be surprised to know that we really are carrying on conversations with those living and dead. Until then we can continue to use this wellspring of knowledge.

Many times I have had people ask me how long I have had my psychic powers? The answer is that I have never had psychic powers but I have always had psychic abilities. In this day and age it is too easy for a person to get the big head thinking that they have something others don’t. The truth is that everyone has this ability but not everyone chooses to use it. And some of those who do don’t use it in the same way I do.

 
Power, if you choose to use that word, comes from creating your own reality. That is also something everyone does whether they believe they do or not. We are what we make of ourselves. Thus we are what we think. If you think you can do nothing, you can do nothing. When you think you can do anything, you can. It may take a while but you can. In other words, your words are the true source of you.

 
Jesus said in the Bible when you speak from your heart, it is so. And he is so right. When you speak with thought and emotion and put those words out in the universe, they come right back to secure exactly what you said. So always be cognizant of what you say in reference to yourself. 

 
I remember once, long years ago, when I said I wanted something at all cost. Believe me when I say, it cost me dearly but it took about 17 years to do so. When it happened I remembered my words exactly.

 
One of the lessons I tried to teach my daughter was to watch her words. Words are something that can’t be taken back no matter how much you may wish you could. Once said they can either fester on someone’s heart, help someone or help the creator of them by moving their lives on at a quicker pace but they can never be taken back. No truer words can be spoken than the pen is mightier than the sword.

 
If you want to change your life, do it now through heartfelt words.

What’s the word I want to use here? You know it’s when a person refuses to look at or believe what they hear without careful investigation. Even when they have been shown time and again that the information they are getting is right on, they still question. Does that mean that they are intelligent? I prefer to believe that is true because the only other option would be that they are hardheaded or an even better word, stubborn.

I don’t see myself as either of those two words even though Claude says I can be. Instead, I prescribe to the facts. When I see it with my own two, sometimes three (Don’t think I am bizarre. There is a third eye for psychics.), eyes, then I will believe it or if I hear it with my two ears. But I am one of the most logical psychics you will ever meet. If I can’t taste it, smell it, hear it, feel it or see it, then I have a real problem with it.

And that leads me to the problem I am having now. Questions to the other side about where I will be living are coming up with less than I desire. Sometimes you have to be hit on the hard head in order to find out these things. Right now, I would even take that because I am very unclear as to where I will be putting down roots. I am ready and willing to listen, have my antennae up and ready…..really ready.

It’s horrible when a psychic tells you that they are looking for answers. But here I am, looking. One of the hardest things that I have had to learn this time on earth is that I am human. We humans sometimes have to wait. Not something I am very good at either.

Sometimes, as a psychic, you have to use a little harder language than you would like to get your point across. And when it is with your husband, then it makes it even harder. Generally, I believe in giving the message although I might omit what I think a person can’t stand to hear or I might put some sugar with it to make it easier to swallow but there are times when you just can’t do that. At different points in their lives, some people will not allow that.

Today was one of those days. Claude and I had a real talk about what I see in the future for him, for me and for both of us. Being the psychic that I am, I generally read for myself and those close to me even though I may not say a word about it. For the past few years I have been trying to believe that I have been unable to read for myself but each day events happen that tell me I am still right on about our lives. And that can lead to a scare.

Certainly it is not easy to tell others what you see if it isn’t good. Well, multiply that by the world and you can understand how bad that would be when it is someone you love. I always say prayers for others after I have given them news that they may not like in the future. Another thing that I always tell people is that I am not one hundred percent. I don’t know a psychic who is but we have high batting averages. I always try to leave hope because without hope what have you got? It can be scary living with me.

Here’s to living and living well!!!!
