Do you believe in ghosts? Lord knows, we have all seen enough movies about them, but have you personally encountered one? It finally happened to me a few years ago, convincing me of the supe
atural reality of ghosts. They do exist.

Back in 2007, I lived in an apartment that was supposedly haunted. Oh yeah! Bring it on. Well, one night I noticed that my large long red macaw feather, that my friend Bonnie had given me, was missing. It always resided in a potted spider plant in my window sill. When my roommate Mick came home after his yard sale, I confronted him about my missing feather. He hadn’t taken it. And he hadn’t seen it fall out the window. He had been sitting right below my window all day, conducting his sale. We were both very perplexed, as I had looked under the bed four times already and my room is only so big. Where did that bright red feather disappear to? As I sat alone on my bed, after Mick left the room shaking his head in disbelief, I suddenly felt something poke me under my right thigh. Looking down, I saw that I was now sitting on the feather! It was under my thigh and it sure wasn’t on my bed two seconds ago.
Mick confessed that the ghost had been rolling out the toilette paper on him, as he sat waiting for shit to happen in the middle of the night. At least this was a trickster spirit, and not some weird poltergeist phenomena that scares the hell out of you. Being the first time I’d experienced a ghost, this made a believe
out of me! I wonder if the present tenants in that apartment have any stories to tell. Or maybe the ghost finally cleared up its karma enough to move on to where it should really be in the afterlife.

When we first discover the Law of Attraction and the power we have to attract what we want, we often expect instantaneous results. Results are rarely instantaneous. This isn’t because God/Source/All-That-Is cannot deliver because once we ask; it is given – every time…without question! It is because we live in this time-space reality that allows for a “buffer of time” while we get ourselves into alignment with what we desire!

Fear: It can be paralyzing, demoralizing. It can make you feel hopeless, powerless, a victim. But is fear really that powerful? Here is a quote to ponder: "Fear cannot take what you do not give it." ~Christopher Coan

How many times have we all heard, read, or been told to develop an "Attitude of Gratitude" and our lives will be the richer for it? How many of us have actually done that? - and I mean really developed that ability to appreciate anything and everything - to see the positive in all experiences.

I know what you’re all thinking. “What did she say? Is she serious?” As a matter of fact, I am very serious. Spring has sprung, and in this season of rebirth and regeneration, why not take advantage of what Nature has to offer? We all know that being out in Nature has a calming effect. Nature is abundant with Universal Life Force Energy. It is this very energy from which we are all made. When we feel stressed, lethargic or just out of sorts, drawing in more of this Life Force Energy has a balancing and healing effect.
