As you can read in my previous post Aloha Land, I arrived in
an area that wasn’t my “first pick”. Serendipitously, it was indeed exactly the
place I was “supposed” to be at precisely the right time. I actually became keenly
aware of this within an hour of my arrival. The nature of the details is too
personal for those involved to share so I’m highlighting the clear knowing. We
don’t always get that in life which made this situation more of a gift on many
counts.
A little over a month I lived in Kapa’au on the Northern tip
of the Big Island of Hawaii. This gave me a fresh new personal meaning of the
phrase “up North”. I quickly fell in love with the dear family I stayed with
including their precious boy a little over a year old. He was simply a little
bit of Heaven. Fairylike (or perhaps Menehune-like) jungle surrounded the house
with a river flowing through the property – their own Fern Gully. Complete with wild pigs, mongeese (or is that mongooses?) and geckos, there was no shortage of critters. Nature
provided all sorts of fruits - mango, coconut, guava, passion fruit, banana, papaya,
avocado and more (not listed as I don’t remember their names). A garden
produced a variety of veggie nutritiousness too.
For my ocean “fix”, I’d run at a healthy clip 25 minutes…and
that was just to my entrance of the cliffs of North Kohala. The trek was mostly
canopied by lush vegetation reminding me just how far down the rabbit hole I’ve
traveled. Wandering along the edge of the winding sea cliffs, I’d look for
signs, appreciating the beauty of the day. Visibility would reveal varying
degrees of the sunrise depending on the clouds. On rare occasions, I was even
treated with a view of Maui across the water. Although I clearly knew I had
powerful work there, one morning I was slightly bemoaning the fact that I
couldn’t be near the beach. I really got the downhill spiral going thinking the
water there was probably even too rough for dolphins. This, of course, is ridiculous as dolphins love to surf too 😊
In that instant, emerging from the ocean was the largest pod of dolphins I have ever seen in person! Leaping and diving, they moved like a magnificent unit fin to fin. There appeared to be 3 solid waves of my magical friends almost teasing me for my thoughts….as if any waters were too rough for them! It was the only time they appeared for me although my consolation is they “told” me why. That lone visitation was enough to etch that ecstatic feeling forever in my being.
Of note: I often don’t have my own pictures to share as I rarely carry a camera on my adventures. Hunting on the internet, I couldn’t find a picture even close of the dolphin formation I saw – it was out of this world!!
On 888 (8/8/17), a day of infinite possibilities, I got to
go to a delightful little beach near Waimea Bay. Accompanying the mama and baby
I stayed with, we met up with another sweet mom and her baby. Babies and the
beach – two of my loves! Finally, I “bathed in the Mother’s Waters” as I had
been guided by my April reading of which I alluded to in I AM Home.

The much-heralded solar eclipse was experienced in the
manner most appropriate for me. Suffice it to say it was indeed an entrancing
event with much physical and spiritual significance. Personally, the feeling
was as if I had gone through an enchanted portal. Life will never be the same! Perhaps
you got to enjoy the magic somehow too? .....or felt its unique energies?
Regularly I was blessed with radiant crystalline rainbows. Although not as abundant as Florida, still a treat. Then again, I was right near the beach more often in Florida. But I digress. Magic and miracles are aspects I always associate with rainbows – whether bits and pieces or a double rainbow in all its splendor. (You can read another super significant rainbow story of mine in California Gold vs Peace.) What is a rainbow? It’s a divine promise. It’s a wish granted. It’s captivating eye candy. It’s a beautiful reminder to notice and appreciate the abundant treasures laid at my feet….and never blame the rainbows for the rain!
