The True Story of the Awakening for One Person, (the love, the inspiration, the fear and the determination of one woman giving up everything she has for everything she believes in). nnn Janet was a flight attendant for a major airline and loved her career and all the exciting people and places it exposed her to. Through the 35 years of her career she balanced being a single mom to her beautiful daughter. Balancing work and motherhood was always a challenging art. Wanting to be home with her daughter and yet having to pack and leave for work.

Five years ago while on a trip, Janet spotted a cute shinning necklace that caught her attention and so she bought it. A week later Janet had a San Francisco layover, while in her room, she received an Inspired message. The voice she heard was clear and strong.

She believed in listening for the “still small voice inside” but this time is was different, no longer the small voice but one of power. This time she couldn’t help but sit up and pay attention.

The Voice said “use the necklace as a tool for THE AWAKENING!” Wow, what was that suppose to mean ? Then Janet was given a VISION… a young barefoot and shirtless Africian boy in the background as CNN’s camera were focused in the foreground interviewing . He was walking down the street, alone, with his small protruding belly, thin and unde
ourished. The camera man just happened to catch him in the frame of his camera…. Alone and yet he had the biggest smile on his face, He was wearing the necklace!! The light that, couldn’t stay hidden. This necklace of light around his neck was a radiant blue hue. It radiated this young boy’s own inner light, his true self…not the physical self the camera was portraying.

Janet remembers feeling overwhelmed and excited, scared and determined. She knew she had just received her purpose and knew in her heart she was blessed to be given this gift. After all, so many never hear their purpose so clearly as she just had.

She called her best friend, Will, and told him of the situation which just happened. He was very responsive and supportive. He knew, knowing Janet’s spiritual heart, that she was on a mission.

After arriving home from her San Francisco trip, she found Will had done some research on the necklace however finding the people who made the necklace were not interested in wholesaling it to them at a reasonable price. Now what?

Here is where the Love Story begins. Will decided to make the necklace and find a manufacturer. Will or Janet knew NOTHING of this type of venture. So he studied, researched, made hundreds of phone calls… he was also determined because he believed in not just the Divine purpose…but also in Janet.

Will and Janet were best friends and opposites in many ways, yet saw admirable qualities within each other; a yin and yang of sorts. They had many long discussions to decide how they would accomplish this chosen mission. They decided to form a corporation and the Trinity of the Infinite was formed. However, One small sticking point, one partner wanted on a platonic relationship” and the other partner was already committed in one -sided love relationship with now his business partner.

Two very different perspectives. With time, commitment, communication, respect honesty, trust and a belief in the Divine mission ahead the old cliché “it takes two” was the choice. And so began their own Awakening, set on their mission of love and service to contribute to the enlightenment of the planet.

Will had a very profitable company. But in order for him to devote his full focus and energy he sold his company to give Azure Circles his full commitment. Not only did he give his time, but invested much of his revenue from the sale of his company to start producing the necklace.

Janet was the sole breadwinner for herself and her daughter and continued to work as a flight attendant. As time passed, patents, trademarks and eventually contracts were reviewed by their lawyer, costs started to mount. The costs were mounting while both Will and Janet tried to learn the manufacturing business.

Money was needed but neither of them had deep pockets. But, Janet had good credit and fully dedicated to her life’s purpose, she chose to refinance her home. As the years continued she took credit card loans in order to continue the research and development for a perfected product to fulfill her INSPIRED VISION. There were times and still are , when fear tried to overtake the Vision. Her debt kept mounting. In lieu of it all, through fear she continued to persevere because she believed the path would be cleared for her, and monies would come.

So with more credit card debt and more time passing, the company had plenty of outgoing funds but no income coming in. Friends, family and even the accountant were conce
ed. It was hard on the two of them. Through this time however they had become a couple instead of two partners not in balance with each other. Their dates were not lavish, but in spite of the lack of funds they had fun, they laughed, they cried, they argued and discussed the good and the bad, they got to know and love the core of each other with no false pretenses; a personal awakening for each of them.

Individually and as a couple, despite everything the two still trusted in each other’s integrity, love, honesty, commitment and believed in the divine guidance of Source to continue on their mission.

This story started in 2003 and by 2005 they had their first run prototype finished. Now more money was needed for all of those things you need to launch a new product.

As they were getting the necklace out onto the market, a friend of Will’s recommended that they show these necklaces to his very “connected” global marketing friend. A meeting was arranged in New York and it was a hit!

The new patrons loved the necklace and wanted to license and market it to WalMart and many other larger vendors. At last, Janet and Will’s first break in almost 3 years. They were very excited and began negotiating a contract for the licensing of the necklace. Of course once again, more money for lawyers was needed.

As the story unfolded, Will was sent to China to oversee the manufacturing of the necklace. A lot of time passed and still nothing was really happening. Wheels were spinning but no product and no dollars. After 5 months the contract that had been negotiated expired. This was a dark time for them, both financially as well as their hopes in what they thought was going to be the answer to all of their conce
sn.
In Spring of 2006 Janet and Will took a trip Disney World with her family. As they all watched the evening parade of Lights, Janet heard Jimminy Cricket telling Pinnochico that if he believed, “the magic was within”. Wow!!! She felt another lightening bolt to her heart. Immediately she turned to Will and said “ our necklace belongs here in Disney!”

So they called their lawyer the following Monday and checked to see if Magic Within was trademarked. It was not, great news… but now more money was needed to trademark another name.

With their new idea, they called the patrons who were going to bring their earlier necklace to Wal Mart and told them of their idea. The necklace in Disney. They thought it was a fantastic idea and so another round of negotiations with lawyers about licensing the illuminated necklace to Disney began again. Exciting yes, while even more money was going out.

As exciting as the Disney opportunity was, it had nothing to do with the INSPIRED MESSAGE, (except it may have funded the true purpose). Will and Janet recognized they had been waiting on this possible venture to move THE AWAKENING forward. But, not any more.

With focused vision and shear determination a new clasp was designed. It was revolutionary in shape and after 5 years of research and development on many levels the Necklace representing THE AWAKENING was created.

Today, the necklace is ready as a vehicle to experience THE AWAKENING. Divine order has brought them to this place in time and it is the time for the debut of THE AWAKENING: NECKLACE OF LIGHT!

Will, with unselfish devotion and love for his woman has dedicated 5 years of his life to create a necklace of light for Janet, the love of his life. It is as beautiful a love story as was the Emperor Shah Jahar of India who built the Taj Mahal for the love of his life.

Will is an example of a remarkable man, who believed in a woman and her life’s purpose. He has helped orchestrate the mission to get her this far. It is now up to Janet to take her inspired mission to the awakening world of consciousness and into the universe’s vibrational harmonies .

The necklace has been created with great love, and great debt including all of Janet’s retirement fund and credit… she is broke. But she is also rich, as she describes her purpose.

Her first stop, Taking herself to the Oprah show on the April 29th taping . Why? She knows and has see
Oprah open up the consciousness of the world over the past several years. What better way to open up the newest vehicle to THE AWAKENING than to be in a space of harmony and acceptance.

Her respect and admiration and deep love for Will abounds in peace and joy as this adventure with limitless abundance and prosperity together. They are Blessed and so it is.

One summer while I was on vacation from college I became a tin man: selling aluminum siding and roofing door to door in the Boston area. The business has a bad reputation but our siding and our roofs were the finest available. Our prices were high but fair. In spite of what consumers always want to believe, you can’t get the best without paying for it.
