Aloha,
I ran across a blog post I really liked the other day about miracles by emettruth.
In Jewish tradition the word we translate "miracle" is nes. A nes is a sign, like a flag, waiving above a building or a marker, drawing your attention to something special.
I thought about the idea of miracles as flag posts or markers of the special things in our lives and as I looked at my life I saw a lot of miracles. What if you saw everything special in your life as a miracle? How would that make you feel about your life? Play with the idea and see what happens.

Fearless Fridays: Death
Aloha,
I get so many e-mails from people who are afraid of death or who are dealing with the death of a loved one. Recently, my father died and I am still dealing with the aftermath of his departure. When someone has a close family member die, people are often unsure of what to say or do. Death is part of this journey we call life. Life is, after al,l a fatal disease; no one gets out of here alive, especially if we align ourselves with our body. Our spirits are eternal our bodies aren't.
Since this week I received several e-mails from people struggling with fear of their own mortality, I decided to talk a bit about death and how to face it in a fearless manner. We have such an obsession with death as evidenced by the obsession with Michael Jackson's autopsy and Princess Dianna's death photos.

Angel Tree Program
Aloha,
Many years ago, I went to the mall around Christmas and there was an angel tree. I picked off several angels and bought shoes for a family. It felt good to know I was helping a family, and the tiny sneakers were so cute!
I just noticed that the Salvation Army is starting to take applications from families in need for this coming holiday season. No matter how much money we have or don't have, we can take time to be someone's angel.

Angel blessings
Aloha,
Long before I had any conscious interest in working with angels, people kept giving me angel figurines. I had angels lurking in every corner of my house before I finally woke up and started actively working with them. Thank goodness angels have a lot of patience. Now I look back and laugh.
Since I began to consciously work with angels, my life has changed in so many ways, all of them elegantly gracious, easy, gentle, loving, and kind. Far different than the results I had in my life when I was doing it my way!

Breast cancer awareness month
Aloha,
October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. I have had several friends die from breast cancer. As I was doing research I found this Breast Cancer Angel site that helps women financially.
I also went through the notes I made when writing my book on angels and found the angel Elim.

How could God let this happen?
When a child dies or someone is murdered they ask why God let it happen. Personally, I don't believe God causes suffering. God only creates perfection, love, peace and joy.

About Pele
Pele is the Hawaiian goddess of the volcano as well as the goddess of transformation, passion, vitality and creation. Pele is a powerful force on the Hawaiian islands. Shortly after I moved to Hawaii, a friend suggested I have my property blessed. I asked Pele if I could live and work on her land. She graciously agreed, so I always take time to thank her and ask for her blessing in my endeavors.
