Just Imagine this!

A lake in

Germany

and

"The Mermaid"

that is there to watch over you!

Thought I would laugh myself silly wondering what this fellow in the kayak was thinking as he paddled by her!

Now that Lake does have some style don't you think?

Lake Aster, Germany

I cannot imagine visiting there on a lovely evening;

taking a stroll and gazing out over the lake...

And then...

Seeing the

MERMAID

just "kicked back and enjoying the view she is"

because it would probably be at that very moment

people would hear the

"kerplunk" of

Dr Showalter as I fell in!

Isn't that a remarkable sculpture?

As if whispering>>> "who loves ya baby, and watch the foot below will ya"!!!

Ah,

I'm thinking I should ask

Tarpon Springs to find a sculptur

to create something so wonderful

at Lake Tarpon!

It would soothe;

amuse

and just tickle folks

as they got out there on the water

unsuspecting

and

then were greeted by

such a sight to behold!

She is indeed lovely I'm thinking.

It is a lovely morning here,

as I got word that one of the friends we have held up in the prayer bowl is goin under the knife to have his tonsils removed today; after being told those tonsils were holding the possiblity of Cancer.

The fear that filled the hearts of the family

and the ability to hold ones' breath through this time

is rather remarkable while the thoughts of what might be

course through the veins.

They will remove the tonsils

and

he will not rest until he hears whether or not

this is the source of whatever is going on

and

reflected Cancer cells on a PET scan.

He will then utilize all the magic arts he can muster through resources to get another opinion and

to find his way

to a leading cancer center;

I now have learned by traveling on a plane with a brilliant woman

that

Detroit Medical Center

is the place to go if you live in Michigan!

Isn't it amazing how the Creator puts one where they need to be to access information and support for others in need of that information?

Meanwhile,

I will ask all to hold Rod up today,

and

his family as he goes through surgery

and

together we will send energy for a good resolve

and

hope in healing ways for him and strength for his family who waits.
Perhaps Rod will discover
that had he had those tonsils out as a kid
he would have had all the popcicles he could stand while freezing his tongue and brain back then,
but
now
perhaps his wife will cover him with love
ICE CREAM and popcicles
and
he will just have a party of colors like rainbows in his nervous system
while we pray for a wonderful outcome
he will re-visit the world of
popcicles and ice cream as he soothes his throat
and
his spirits.
Let's all show him some love
and
have
BANANA SPLITS FOR DINNER TONIGHT!!!
Pick me
I love
an ole fashioned banana split
and will eat one for
Rod
while he sucks on popcicle!

Blessings and all the best Warrior Rod,
we're here for you dear one.

Perhaps the visual of the mermaid

will bring a smile to their faces

and

will give hope in healing

while changing the focus

and giving respite

to the minds

of everyone who is fighting battles or issues

of stress or hurtful words or actions

today.

Just sit back, and imagine...

Being a stranger at Lake Aster,

enjoying the sights, sounds, smells

and allow yourself to enjoy it all for the moment.

And then you see her!

THE MERMAID

is just layin back in the middle of the lake,

beckoning you to join and to swim, to boat,

to relax!

AND TO BREATHE...

How often we take for granted that wonderful thing that gives us life; our breath and ability to breathe in deeply

and exhale our fears and worries,

while regaining control of our moments

through

"self regulation and choice"

of our next thoughts and steps we make!

So friends,

for this moment,

take a look at the lady in the lake,

WHAT THE HECK...

stretch your imagine

Be The Mermaid!

Just lay back and take a couple of breaths today;

imagine the water, and know that you are all that you need to be

to razzle others with your dazzle

and

to star in your own show

"it is your moment"

It is your day!

Choose wisely,

breathe deeply

and remember the sage words

of

Winnie the POOOOOH:

"If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. but the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. i'll always be with you.”

EE in Colorado is traveling for a long overdue appt. to see a cardiologist today, (thanks to the incompetence of the social worker out there who has just about killed her with taking away her benefits, taking away her abilities to get out and about by not repairing her jazzy 1750 scooter with the broken arm on it so that she can be mobile. She now has her benefits reinstated only because she was a warrior and insisted on a hearing and only then a JUDGE HAD TO ORDER THIS WOMAN TO RE-INSTATE her benefits) You must advocate for yourself people, cos' some of those professionals out there can do harm; not all are the fabulous folks I have met along the journey... Prayers goin UP for our warrior EE today, may she now get the care she needs to restore her health... The fire is burning and the sage is lit, with hope in healing ways to all who enter here.
