Voyaging

Fun blast from past

Not long ago, someone commented that something I said wasn’t the absolute truth. I immediately agreed – see previous posts (Communication and Technology and Reeeally?? ) It isn’t important that I am right or that the specific words I say are absolute truth. What is important to me is I am in integrity and speaking from the heart. The proof in the pudding, for me, is not about the purity of my human words, but the “positive” results I observe when people choose to go with certain ideas and suggestions I’ve shared. Those who listen from their heart, and with pure intent, will find the light and value shared from my heart to theirs. In this spirit, I hereby continue my mer-musings….

Close to Ring Discovery Spot

I had an opportunity to spend a little time in familiar Ventura, California. Along with a number of other synchronicities, I found myself on the very same beach I magically divined my mysterious heart shaped ruby ring buried in the sand Magic and Miracles. One challenge for me is to stay in appreciation as the

beaches in California don’t fit my preferences for a beach. In order to enjoy my surroundings, I had to acknowledge that I don’t always get what I want but I get what I need. 😉 I have a choice to see the beauty in the current experience or note the non-desirability. One might think this a simple choice. While it may be simple, for me, it is not always easy. Often, I need to make the conscious choice to enjoy a dozen times per hour. If you find yourself in not the most desirable situation, you have choices too. You can take action to change your situation. Sometimes, that option lies only within ourselves. The good news is that is our place of greatest power….. the Universe within.

My precious grandson, Carter, brought (and continues to bring) me the greatest joy. His infectious smile, his angelic slumber, his determined curiosity and enthusiasm – all change the energy in my life and the world. There were moments when he pauses and seems

to remember all that was before. Carter's eyes can pierce into one’s heart and remind them what is important. Hope springs strong as I interact with this Little Master, as well as being aware of so many children like him that are powerfully reshaping the world into a brighter place.

In previous post From Atlantis to Lemuria and Beyond you read about my 

amazing upcoming one way cruise. The point of origin being Hawaii and the disembarkation port in French Polynesia. I’d hoped to line up a work exchange situation that would allow me to stay In Tahiti, Moorea, or one of the other surrounding islands for 3 months. It so happened I was not able to line up all my ducks by the date I’d set for it to happen. Being so close to cruise departure, it brought me peace to explore alternate arrangements. As a result, I have not only one 14 day tropical cruise ahead, but two! With a dear friend’s participation and other angels’ contributions, I will be doing the reverse cruise on the same ship – going back through French Polynesian

Islands and revisiting…..Lemuria aka Hawaii. Evidently I have some unfinished business there. I am enthusiastic about the possibilities along every bit of the journey. And after that?? Who knows? There was a possibility of an 18 day cruise that piqued my excitement. It goes from French Polynesia to Australia and New Zealand. These have been places I’d have loved to explore but hadn’t been able financially to pull off. Since my second cruise has me heading back to Aloha Land, it seems the dream for farther south

My Fortune Cookie Concurs

exploration evaporated with it. However, anything is possible. Putting out to the Universe the possibility of another miracle. While I allow for that miracle to come in infinite forms, here is one potentiality. The cruise ship I am on turns around again from Hawaii – returning to French Polynesia. That same ship continues on to the 18 day cruise to Australia and New Zealand. Open to donations, sponsorship, travel companion or ??? to facilitate this. Please contact if you feel nudged to play along. Do YOU have “Impossible Dreams”? Do you brush them aside as there is no way they can happen or do you shoot for the moon? What can you do today to “put it out to the Universe?” You may be surprised at what you can manifest. At the very least, you’ll end up in the stars. Seas the day!

With all the interesting technical dynamics I’ve been dealing with – loss of data, lack of functionality and such -  I am doing my best to maintain my options for keeping in touch. If you enjoy reading my blog, please follow on blogger if you haven’t already. I can't even figure out how to get a link to direct you to follow. There is possibly a link in the column to the right of this post (depending on your device) that shows a Follow button.  Also, number of emails bounced from people who said they wanted to get notifications. Supposedly some weren’t getting them because I needed a domain authentication or such. I may have rectified that – although I am not sure. If you want email announcements for newly released blog posts, and aren’t currently getting them, please let me know and I will do my best to take care of that. Keep in mind, while cruising, I will have minimal internet so please be patient if you don’t get a timely response. I trust we will communicate in Divine time.

Ongoing thanks to all my Angels. From coffee, meals, gym facilities, vehicles, hotels, house stays, airline flights, and more – this fantastic voyage continues to be possible because of you! I can never pay you back financially or in traditional human ways. But the deeper ways I can facilitate the exchange, you know you are lovingly surrounded with daily. Mahalo Nui Loa

Putting it out to the Universe for Fair Winds and Following Seas for us all in the days to come….. 

A Wee Bit of Magic? It’s Elemental!

Magic and enchantments dazzle this month

complete with divas, fairies, leprechauns and other elementals. Some celebrate St. Patty’s Day. Some revere the Equinox be it Vernal or Autumnal depending on where in the world you are.  Maybe you even remember Theodore Geisel’s Birthday in appreciation for all the joy Dr Seuss continues to bring to children of all ages. I also have a GrandPuppy, Hero, who celebrates his 4^th birthday this March. Whatever you choose to enjoy, I continue to urge you to celebrate. Celebrations generally mean joy (perhaps with a little Irish jig). Joy enhances our health and well-being- spiritual, mental and physical.

Speaking of well-Being, I’ve shared before about Simbi – an exchange platform I belong to. There I “met” and received a fascinating reading from Cindy Welch, or Cece Tarot , as she is known there. Since her style was particularly interesting to me, I looked into her offerings a bit more. I found, not surprisingly, she’d authored an enchanting novel called The Mists of Tir Na Nog. These days I am guided to read very few books – a story perhaps for another time. I was enthralled by the twists and turns of the story; finding interesting co-relations in my own personal tale. If magic, wizards and fairies pique your interest, you may also find The Mists of Tir Na Nog to be a real page turner – or finger swiper as I read it on Kindle. You can find The Mists of Tir Na Nog on amazon 

In addition to my Beach Art, I am sometimes gifted with items to sell to help support myself and brighten the lives of others. With the arrival of Spring, birth and rebirth can be found all around. This darling, realistic looking Bird Family seems very appropriate for Springtime although charming year round. Note the Mother doting over her two new babies as she waits for one more egg to hatch. Proud Papa keeps a watchful eye over the family from afar. 

Another new offering is this striking Cobalt Glass Fish...........

Perhaps more appropriate for the “green thing” is the Chartreuse Fish – although it’s not quite the proper Kelly Green. Perhaps you can imagine it swimming around in the shamrock seaweed 😉  Other Gifts From The Sea are offered on etsy and fb. Please Contact with your interest. 🐬

With a little bit of luck 🍀, and help from wonderful Rob at Thinking2, I am announcing this blog post from a new service – mailchimp. If you are seeing this blog via an announcement other than blogger or mailchimp and wish to be on this mailing list, please let me know! This is another new experience for me. The results going forward are anyone’s guess. But grateful to connect again, one more time, for those meant to feel this connection. Thank you 🙏 for your love 💖 and support and gracing my world with your presence/presents!

Magic Always Comes With A Price

Once upon a time a little, seemingly average, girl dreamed of being a princess. Immediately one would think, “That’s pretty normal. Lots of little girls dream of being princesses.” Heck, Disney made sure of that too. Around 6 years of age, she donned her mother’s gorgeous cerulean blue satin dress and the jeweled golden crown she’d fashioned herself. It was Halloween and one of the last times she’d be allowed to be a princess for many years to come. Externally, that is, because she was actually…..Abby Normal. Something in her deepest memories always glowed, albeit at times faintly, a knowing of magic – all kinds of magic! One of her NOW choices is to live that magic as much as possible here on Planet Earth.
But more about that later.

There is a positive reason, or magic if you will, swirling around every
happening. When I was in Florida, a few months back, I could have easily stayed months longer. I had a beautiful, comfortable place to stay. I loved the balmy weather, tropical plants and critters all around. Yet something was telling me, in no uncertain terms, it was time to move on. No why, just go! Sometime later, I would come to understand why. The Universe was sparing me incredible heartbreak. One of the main purposes for me being in Florida is to be on the beach experiencing as many breathtaking sunrises and sunsets as possible. The deep level of communing with nature for me under those circumstances is hard to explain in human language. Alas, a devastating Red Tide began almost immediately after my departure. Its epic destruction and duration continue to this very day. I could not have been able to bear the sight of so many of my friends, dead on the beach and floating lifeless in the water. I would not have been able to breath or tolerate the stinging in my eyes there either. Sometimes the magic is that we are whisked away – protected from situations not preferred. The Universe knows I can help others better when I dwell in joy!

Here is one of the countless ways Joy has blessed me. After mentioning how I used to give greeting cards in my previous post, a former recipient of such greetings gifted me with a several. And not just any cards, but ones that featured her exquisite fine art and photography. You too can enjoy them via Kathyjonokuchi.com Thank You Dear Kathy! You have brought ongoing joy to me since the time we met, all those years ago, and bring immeasurable joy to the world!

Magic Always Comes With A Price – it is always the effect of something aka the price. I previously touched on that with nothing being “free” in Who is this blog for? Each day I look for, or create, the magic in the place where I am as I move closer to another place I’d like to be. I find something to feel joy about while fulfilling my purpose in whatever place I currently am. And, I continue taking baby steps to manifesting another reality. To that end, I again put out my request for leads and information. If you have any ideas or connections to someone in a tropical beach area with warm turquoise waters that needs assistance, please let me know. It could be house-sitting, childcare assistance, travel companion, deck hand, or other mutually beneficial work exchange situation. Kindly contact me to share thoughts
or get more details on help I can provide.

What is the price of everyday magic?
Here is a short beginning to the Neverending Story:
* Ongoing decisions to see the wonder right where you are
* Lighten up – have more fun
* Willingness to be happy over right
* Don’t sweat the small stuff (and it’s all small stuff)
* Imagine/see the world as you blissfully wish it to be
* Recognizing you are on this stage called life and can determine your individual performance
* Shining your light to others constantly making this world a brighter place
* Commitment to live happily ever after
