So I just read over the post from earlier today and realized that I sounded exactly like Carrie Bradshaw. I AM in trouble. Oops........do we all know who Carrie Bradshaw is? Remember I mentioned "Sex and the City".....anyway from there. I also got some great feedback. Thanks..smile
So I never did make it to the beach and I am once again pondering the "you get what you ask for" dilemma. My reward of going to the beach didn't materialize and I knew intuitively that it would not be. The friend that I was supposed to connect with just didn't sound completely reliable when I spoke to her earlier in the day but, almost true to form, for her she blew it. So did I need her to do this for me to get angry enough to blow off some steam. I didn't yell or swear or even cry, but I almost did..........embarassed little grin..........I can be such a little girl sometimes........... Anyway, I did call another person and put on my hiking shoes and HIKED up a hill into the mountains. It felt great however my other poor friend and HER DOGS couldn't keep up. Sigh. But at the end of the day, which is now..........grin.........I am feeling SO very much better.
So, in a weird and magical way I have to say Thanks Neti for screwing up today. The frustration I felt knowing that I should not have cancelled other plans for today for YOUR day with me led me to work through some other issues of which I have been blabbing about for the past couple of days. Ain't life grand.
And I also found out that the manuscript that I am working on only has to be 1/3 of the size that I had originally thought. So, this means that I will be finished WAY sooner and off it will go.
Shifting right along. Have a wonderful night, evening, afternoon, morning or whatever it is in your part of the world.
Blessings and Aloha

back in the land of cyberspace
So computer problem fixed and I was not responsible for it at all. Something to do with a filter or something but not me........funny I was thinking I had something to do with it all but at least it does make me remember that we do indeed get what we asked for.
Including emails from people who usually do not communicate that well. Remember the other day when I was feeling low and talking about the "man" with whom I had a relationship that was perhaps not exactly sacred? Well, shock of shocks, he just sent me the longest most explanatory and honest email ever. Of course now I am sitting here going WHAT NOW? Funny how the man/woman thing is and I certainly wish that I could figure it out or at least figure me out.
Anyway, here I sit on Monday, writing my blog for Monday. The story is going along really well and I will be writing up a storm this morning and then, as my reward, going to the beach. I am spending a LOT of time at the beach but HEY, that is what a Hawaiian vacation is for...right?
Hmmmmmmmmm, thinking about the statement "You always get what you ask for." I have to wonder sometimes about what I do bring into my life. Especially when it concerns men. Do I truly want to be in a loving, committed relationship or am I simply wanting to enjoy the company of others. Am I asking for simply pleasure or do I want something more? Seems like a no brainer to me but still there I am actually considering getting together with Mr. Wrong again. Am I the kind of woman who can separate her heart from the rest of her? I think not yet still, there is this pull to "him". Hey ladies......feedback? Or any of you men? What are your thoughts about this subject.
Can we actually have fun with someone and then be done with it? I know there are many, many people who can do this and have a perfectly comfortable life through it all. I just don't think that I am one of them. Remember Sex in the City and Samantha? She seemed to be able to jump from one man to the other with no thoughts of anyone but herself. But then she fell in love with this one man who just had to have other women. He claimed to love her but then again, he loved many. There seem to be a lot of men like that around or at least that I am coming into contact with. So back to the getting what you ask for. Am I asking for this? Is this a part of me that truly wants people to be separate from the heart? Curious but I guess I'll just have to figure this one out by myself.
BUT, the sun is shining (Ho Hum.......AGAIN.......sigh) and the story calls to me so I shall bid you all adieu.
Blessings and Aloha until next time.

communication glitches
Well, this is an interesting turn of events. Just today (It is Sunday but you will not see this posted on Sunday) I was talking with someone on line and he said that the internet could keep him distracted for hours and he just had to get out of there and get something done. I agreed with him and then realized of course that the internet is a HUGE part of my communication system as I connect with people the world over it seems. Living on Kauai is mostly responsible for that because EVERYONE who is NOT Hawaiian is from somewhere else on Kauai….smile. Anyway, I digress………..
But this gets us to the why behind receiving this a day late………er, I hope it is only a day late as Matrajen is pretty beside himself due to the fact that this is HIS computer. …….insert weak little grin hear. In conversation with the above mentioned gentleman I said that I needed the computer but I could do without the internet and all the communication that goes on with us all through cyberspace. WELL, and I love to get to say this…we ALWAYS get what we asked for.
It appears that his MODEM is slightly askew for lack of a better word and there will be no internet connection for this little redhead because A. the company he uses for his internet connection is local. This means no 24 hour help line….NO SIREE BOB they close on the weekends and B. since he has to go to work tomorrow he will not be able to remedy the situation until the earliest tomorrow evening.
And of course this means I have a computer at my command but NO internet connection so I can focus on the book that I am here to write and keep my Blog going – if even just for me until I can upload it. UPLOAD IT………I love that. This could be a perfect situation for me anyway.
There is no reason why I have to respond whenever another email goes PLOP into the inbox. I don’t have to be available on Instant Messenger unless I choose to connect with another. Again I say. This could just be it.
I feel a rant coming on and I really need to get dinner going. Matrajen just looked over my shoulder. He is not pleased………..grin………… Somehow I feel responsible for this because, you guessed it.
I ASKED FOR IT.
Blessings and Aloha until next time.

cleansing rains
WOW.....did we get dumped on last night. All night long the rains poured down upon us and for me it was a huge cleansing. Woke up feeling much better and ready to get on with the rest of the self imposed down time........smile
Was reading some information online this morning and as usual, there is always something there for me to ponder. And it is not even that I needed to read this stuff but one thing did grab my attention. When we shift our perception of life, life shifts right along with us. Good one to think about considering where my mind was going yesterday morning.
Had a wonderful day at the beach and then did some retail therapy. Woo hoo.......shoes....see Katrice with a happy face on. Also had a drink and some appys (called pupus here on Kauai) at our favourite beachside restaurant late afternoon yesterday and that felt very good.
My friend Matrajen, with whom I am staying is my old partner and we are finding that we are such good friends. He is so happy having me here and at times I wonder about his sanity since I am constantly bringing things to his attention. But I guess it is what he needs as he started to realize some things that he could consider shifting within his realm. I tend to do that and while at times I feel that perhaps I am too harsh, it seems to work with Matrajen. At heart he is such a sweet simply Soul who has a very hard dealing with regular specimens of humanity. And as we all know, I am not very regular but what can you do.
But back to changing perceptions of life. I now have less than 2 weeks left here.......time flies here too I am seeing. Thought I could slow it down a tad but no such luck.
Doesn't look like a beach today so nose to the grindstone for me and back to writing.
It's all good though so hope you are all enjoying your Saturday.
Blessings and Aloha

REALLY slow today
Not feeling up to snuff AT ALL this morning. Again dreams plagued me and I just could not sleep. I am having thoughts about things that are keeping me down and while I know that all I have to do is "stop it", I am having a hard time. It is funny how our mind can keep us captive in places that we have no need to be. Coming to Kauai felt like the perfect thing for me to be doing. I forgot how deep we can go here and all that we are trying to keep down, comes rushing to the surface to be dealt with. DRAT.......I knew this but still I came.
The tears are right here so I guess I should spill. I don't know if this is what most people do on a blog, but since I am writing to me anyway I need to share what is happening with me. Sigh....
I fell in love with someone and here we go........sob story 101.........he was not the one for me. He let me feel such love when in his presence and we spent many times together during our 15 month "friendship", however it was all a game on his part. Interesting that at my age, I could still fall for an illusion but like it or not, I did fall and I fell hard. Never had I experienced such love or at least this little heart of mine opening completely and it was like an addiction. Five times.........yes 5 times.........I ended it only to go back for more and he was always most appreciative of my affections. But each time, a couple of days later, I was left feeling emptier than I have ever felt. It was crazy making. the reason I am sharing this is because he keeps coming into my dream time and I get the crazy feeling that he is thinking of me and wondering about me but in my heart, I think that I am only hoping that he is. He is so capable of completely distancing from others that I am sure there is someone else right now who is feeling such love as I felt.
We have all felt love and felt the loss of this same love but I have always been able to move on. This time is really hard and while I know that with time, I will move on, still I sit with tears in my eyes for something that will never be. Why do we put outselves in these positions. Yes, I know it is for the learning that we all return again and again but JEEZ, is there not a time frame for falling in love for the wrong man. I could see doing this at 20 or 30 or even 40 but I am way past any of those time frames and still I miss those times with that man. Even though each time it hurt more than the time before that.
Anyway, not the normal blog you are used to seeing here but what the heck........I am human and at times I act like it too..........smile. Just wanted to spill this out and now, I have to admit that I do feel better. A little sad but better.
I'm sure I will write something more uplifting later in the day but I couldn't sleep and the best way for me to work through things is through sharing. Funny but it feels easier sharing here than actually "talking" with another human face to face. They always want to give their feedback as to what I should do and like it or not, I don't feel like having someone do that right now. This is something that I am going to have to move through on my own and I'm sure I will but it is taking longer than I thought it would.
And on another note, for those of you who know who this man is.........if by chance you come across him in your travels........ahem...........would you kick him for me..........big grin......but with love of course.
Aloha

After the rains...........
It POURED last night. I had not heard or felt the rain since arriving and it was the strangest feeling to me. I smiled and closed my eyes and found myself blending with the sound. Rain in the tropics is different than on the mainland. Growing up in Vancouver I am more than familiar with the wet stuff but here, on Kauai, it is simply different. Funny how I seemed to want to become the rain as it fell. It was full of power and knowing how dry it gets here, I know that it is a life giving remedy to the land. Perhaps that is what was occuring for me. I was blending with the life giving force of the wet stuff.
I have now been here for one full week and it is as if I never left. Connecting daily with the friends who are still here. As Kauai can be a transitional place for many of us, there are many more friends with whom I was close who are no longer here. They are spread out all over the place but knowing that there will always be some who will never leave, I know that I can always return to this safe sacred place.
And now, this morning after the rains, the day has dawned once more clear, bright and sunny. You gotta love it. I am feeling kind of slow today and a tad emotional but then again, that seems to be my normal way of being. The emotional part of me is pulled to the surface here on a daily basis. I'm not saying that I am sad or anything but there is a part of me that is trying to still figure it all out............ME, that is....trying to figure me out...........smile
And once I do, you will be the first to know.
Blessings and Aloha

Be here NOW
Took a while to get up this morning. Feeling lazy. It could be that I ate a HUGE piece of steak last night. Sorry to all you vegans out there but it did taste wonderful. Since I don't eat that much meat these days I am sure it is keeping me down or heavy or something like that. I guess I'll simply have to get out there and work it off somehow.
Feeling slightly stressed at the daunting task of actually bringing this story to completion that I am planning on submitting to the publisher. Need to be more diligent in sitting down to write daily. Just found out that a dear friend of mine is coming to visit me here on the island and will be here for the last 5 days of my trip. This will be great fun but I don't see me getting much writing done with her here. She is my "party girl" friend. YIKES............oh well, this IS supposed to be a vacation. I can put my nose to the grindstone when I return to Vancouver.
But today I am simply wasting time worrying about something that is not even here yet. I think that we all do that to some degree. Get out of the present and move into the future before it is here. Or, we step back into the past to rehash old stuff. Be Here NOW is what I always say and yet, still, I tend to step outside of this present moment and when there, outside that is, there is an uncomfortableness within. And as I sit here writing, I am simply here now and present so I guess the above words are a moot point...........smile
Matrajen has headed off for his day leaving to mine. Another friend is coming over later to bring me a massage table to use for the duration of my stay here. I figure now the universe will know that it is good to send me clients for energy sessions. Did two yesterday and one of them was for a friend who sends out information over the internet pertaining to spirituality, healing and the like. He is sending out another announcement for me to bring more people to my space here. Feels like it would be really easy to simply move back here and continue on with what I do there. I know I keep saying this but I have no idea what the future holds even though I know that I create it one moment at a time.
Hmmmmmmmmmm, I should remember that. We are all the master creators in our life. So now it is time for me to get going on that book I mentioned earlier. Actually is it more like a medium sized story but I guess it could become a book. There I go again, looking too far ahead. Be here now. Hey, I already said that.
Blessings and Aloha until next time.

More Light More LOVE
ho hum.......another shitty day in paradise. This is a popular bumper sticker here on Kauai and as I sit once more with the sun streaming down upon me I chuckle. Can we actually get bored of too much nice weather? I suppose some people can. I know that my father always says that if he didn't have the seasons it would bother him. But of course he grew up on the Canadian Prairies so is used to winters with temperatures that were REALLY COLD with snowfalls that cover houses. Definitely NOT my idea of a good time.
I guess I am simply one who enjoys the sun. I feel rejuvenated with the sunshine. It is the ultimate LIGHT and that is what I am and you are and we all are deep inside. That divine spark of light that illuminates our Soul. To capture it on a daily basis is what sustains me.
While many people who live in the North experience major depressions during the winter months, I find it quite surprising that it has not affected me much since returning from Kauai 3 years ago. Perhaps I am carrying a higher LIGHT quotient within or something. That feels right. I am carrying more light. Is it because of the time on Kauai with all that lovely sunshine or is it simply that I am choosing to embody more light at this time in my life. As I sit reading that last line I can feel my heart opening.
Perhaps it is simply one of our tasks as humans to work on embodying more light, bringing us into alignment with our original Soul's intent. More Light More Love...feels right.
I have a reading scheduled for this morning so that also feels good. I wanted to be able to share some of my gifts while on the island and while I may not be actually doing many sessions for $$$, I have already assisted a couple of dear old friends with my own brand of insight whilst in their presence. Seeing them light up as I shared a couple of words with them makes me know that the source is channelling clearing through me. Not that I doubt it but sometimes I feel that I am not plugging into that Divine Channel 100% of the time. I guess it isn't so much that I am not plugged in. It is simply that sometimes I forget to align with it. Having all this quiet time here on Kauai makes it so much easier to be present in each moment.
It's all good.
Blessings and Aloha

While many people who live in the North experience major depressions during the winter months, I find it quite surprising that it has not affected me much since returning from Kauai 3 years ago. Perhaps I am carrying a higher LIGHT quotient within or something. That feels right. I am carrying more light. Is it because of the time on Kauai with all that lovely sunshine or is it simply that I am choosing to embody more light at this time in my life. As I sit reading that last line I can feel my heart opening.
Perhaps it is simply one of our tasks as humans to work on embodying more light, bringing us into alignment with our original Soul's intent. More Light More Love...feels right.
I have a reading scheduled for this morning so that also feels good. I wanted to be able to share some of my gifts while on the island and while I may not be actually doing many sessions for $$$, I have already assisted a couple of dear old friends with my own brand of insight whilst in their presence. Seeing them light up as I shared a couple of words with them makes me know that the source is channelling clearing through me. Not that I doubt it but sometimes I feel that I am not plugging into that Divine Channel 100% of the time. I guess it isn't so much that I am not plugged in. It is simply that sometimes I forget to align with it. Having all this quiet time here on Kauai makes it so much easier to be present in each moment.
It's all good.
Blessings and Aloha

Days of transition..........part two
.......well at first sight, it doesn't seem like I have transitioned through much today but now that I think about it, the writing bug seems to have taken roost within said Writer.........that would be ME. And here I sit once more, writing away to whoever is actually reading this. I was under the impression that people responded to blogs. Perhaps I should have a contest for the most innovative remark from you "my faithful readers"............let me think about it. I am thinking seriously of moving back here, so perhaps the prize would be an invite when I do.......move back that is......hmmm, just a thought.
Wow where to begin? Started the day out writing and it continued on for over 4 hours until my friend came to go to the beach with me................. YIKES. This is GREAT. That is exactly what it was that I had planned to do while here on my beloved island. And I DO love it here but I digress. I have made the decision to get serious about my writing and that will entail some HUGE leaps of faith for me but seeing how I am making it an important part of my day here, the plan is to carry this new and improved "writer me" back to Vancouver.
I have a story that I have promised to submit to a real live publisher by the end of May so I am telling everyone that I know about this and now you too know about it. I figure with a few hundred or a few thousand people knowing about it, I will make it reality. So far so good. it is only Day 5 but hey it is a start.
I remember when I lived here before I started to write a book. This book was fictional in that the names have been changed to protect the innocent but it is still sitting there, all 246 pages of it....unfinished. I'm told this happens to a lot of writers. I am choosing to believe that another reason that I am here is to figure out how to end that particular book. You see it is based on ME and my own story. So much has happened since I started to write it that I am having a hard time trying to figure out how to end it. Of course since it is fiction and I AM writing it, I can end it any way I choose to. In doing that, not only will I feel really relieved to have finished it but it will allow to move fully cleansed into the next chapter of my Life. What a concept!!
Just do it!
Another great day in paradise.

Lifting veils to reveal what is already there...
sheesh....yesterday morning I was all quiet and peaceful and this morning the dreams plagued me so much so that the first thing out of my mouth was "Jeez, what was that all about?"
I am not much of a dreamer (at least during my sleeping state - I reserve it for daydreaming..smile) but last night or perhaps early this morning there was a rapid fire stream of different scenarios that all revolved around lots of people, many rooms and doorways and losing things. So all you dream analysis people can have a field day with that one.
If I wasn't looking for someone, I was looking for some thing, there were drives in vehicles where I could actually touch the sides of mountains and other cars as we were driving so close together. I had 2 separate little dark kids asking me to hold stuff for them and then I lost them too. A friend of mine was in each of these dreams and he kept talking about NOT wanting to go home which is REALLY strange because he is one of these people that you need to light a stick of dynamite under to go anywhere. There were doorways that would open up to brick walls...hmmmmmmmm, that one always gets me. There was also a group of people dressed up in African shawls and they were obviously a dance group and they kept asking me to come join them. I do love to do African dance so perhaps I should go dancing soon.....smle
I could go on and on but as I sit here I am simply coming back into my own energy as waking up from all that frantic seeking and searching is just too draining. Weird.........
Last evening I went to a gathering and they have LOTS of various gatherings on this island. This one was with an ongoing group who meet weekly to discuss various works by Jon Marc Hammer. Some of you may know of him. He channels Jeshua and some of the titles in the series are "The Way of the Heart" and "The Way of the Servant". The particular topic last night was on "communication". When it came time for group discussion everyone was silent. We all laughed but I made the comment that perhaps since communication is simply communing with the Soul we were all in the perfect "communication" mode and should simply stay with it. Of course, most people were trying to analyze the WHY for the quietness and it soon turned into a huge discussion as to what exactly communication is and what was the message that the author was trying to share. It didn't take long for the whole energy to shift and soon we all went our separate ways. I keep thinking that that evening gathering might have something to do with the strange dreams I had but then again, I am probably overanalyzing which is something that this particular Aquarian is prone to do.
Sigh................
I have the day to myself today and probably most of the week too so I am definitely going to have lots of time to commune with my own Soul and this I plan to do. It is now Day 5 which is a day of transition. I have been feeling a deep sense of transition for the past few months now which is one of the reasons I am here, on the island. Where or how I am transitioning I am still not sure but a deep inner knowingness tells me that this is so.
Transitions mean change but I am sensing a smoother change than at other times in my life. Or perhaps this is what I am HOPING for. Change is never easy but it is constant so I am being guided to be quiet and simply allow for whatever is next to emerge for that it will surely do. We know nothing, we only life veils to reveal what is already there. I read this somewhere and now it is sitting staring at me from the screen.
We all know exactly what it is that we are meant to be doing but we do tend to go around searching for what it is. And in the end, it is simply sitting patiently waiting for our ego to let it rise to the surface. There is that patience word.
So today I shall sit and wait. Well, perhaps I shall prime the well and write LOTS today. Of course the beach shall be there calling to me so I will be sure to spend time there as well, communing with my Soul.
I hope that life is treating you all well and feel free to connect with me. I have not disappeared. Simply relocated for a short time.
Blessings and Aloha until next time.

quiet morning thoughts
It is very quiet as I sit by the window having a cup of coffee. The birds are waking up to their own day and other than that, the only sound is the movement that the palms are making as the breeze lightly ruffles the fronds. It is so different from the sounds that greet me upon awaking in the heart of the city. It feels right. Not different but right. I didn't think I would feel so at home here after my 3 year absence but it is so.
Interestingly, everyone that I am reconnecting with is asking me if I am moving back. It is not something that I had consciously thought of but like it or not, I do feel like I am HOME and all manner of thoughts move through my mind. It is so quiet and peaceful here. The warmth is something that I do indeed love and it feels like I never left. Do you notice that about certain places? They do not leave you even though you might move on. The places that speak to your Soul are there always regardless of whether you are there in the physical or not. And that is what it is like with Kauai.
The day feels softer today somehow. I don't know what it is but perhaps I have softened now that I am at day 4...........a day of openings. That is what the number 4 signifies to me. Openings and opportunities. What does this day hold in store for me? What is already in motion that I have yet to embrace? Infinite possibilities.
However, for the moment, I am simply going to finish my coffee and go for an early morning stroll on the beach. The rest of the day can unfold from there.
Blessings and Aloha

reflections
It is 2 o'clock in the afternoon on another perfectly beautiful day in paradise. I know that I consider Vancouver to be an amazing to live too but you have to admit, there is something to be said for running around in a bikini top and shorts and flip flops. Bought a new pair today actually and I was sorely in need of some. The ones that I have been running around in from when I last lived here and today, as we went for a long walk, I realized that I did indeed need some new ones. So ta da.........done. But that is not a very interesting item to be reading about so perhaps I shall share something of a higher nature for a change.
I sigh.............................
The sensations that are coursing around within me the past couple of days since arriving on my beloved Kauai are so simple that I am in awe. I am peaceful and content simply sitting here typing away. I have no need of anything else. My friend, Matrajen, has beetled off somewhere to give me some quiet time - not that he is noisy by any stretch of the imagination. I can just see those of you who actually KNOW Matrajen laughing. He is without the quietest Being I know and perhaps that is why I have chosen to come and visit at this time. I need the quiet and it is time for me to be doing some deep reflecting on the next phase of my life.
Just yesterday I had finally come to the conclusion that I have not been utilizing my time in the best manner for much of my life. I have known for many years that I am to write and while you have all witnessed some form of writing from me over the years it is not nearly enough for what it is that I am here to do. And that is, of course, write.
I have been "spending time" at various locations around Vancouver with the express purpose of meeting more people who could benefit from time with me........smile. However, the places that I have been doing said "time" are both very quiet and hence, I sit and WAIT. Patience may be a virtue but it is one that tests me continually. So as I sit simply hanging around, and this is indeed how it feels to me, all I can think about is that I could be home creating something...anything.....but there I sit doing nothing.
So my brainstorm of today is that I will not be doing that when I return to Vancouver and I am going to finally sit down and carve out daily time periods for me to do my "writing work" and that is what I shall do. Those who are to come into my personal sphere will find me through other means. In fact, perhaps it will even get me off my butt and really do some proper marketing because to not share of this other gift of mine feels like such a waste as well.
I smile. The trades are blowing. I have had my sun quotient for the day. I have plans to share time with another special friend later and the keyboard awaits. I have a short story that I have told myself will be at the publishers by May 15th so I have some work to do.
Blessings and Aloha until next time.

Day Two - Part Two
I LOVE Kauai but I didn't realize how much until today. Those of you who know me well know that I lived on Kauai for a number of years but returned to Vancouver 3 years ago as I had decided that it was time. Time for what you say? Well, time for me to integrate all that I learned those years on Kauai. And with this vacation, I realized that it is now time for me to integrate all the changes that this past 3 years has been in Vancouver.
The idea of simply living somewhere and just going through the motions is something that I realize I can not do. However, being that that is the way that I operate in my life, it does present some challenges.
And today while walking through the jungle to get to our favourite beach (yes, jungle - the trail is completely overgrown since the county made all the "campers or as we called them "beach people" move. They used to work the land and the trails were so beautiful and kept up.) Anyway, today as I was walking down to our favourite part of the beach, my heart opened so WIDE really quickly and I felt a sob escape and the tears flowed. My poor friend, Matrajen, stopped dead in his tracks and thought I needed comforting and I had to chuckle through my tears. Kauai is simply HOME to me, unlike any other place I have lived and today it hit me hard.
I have been gone for 3 years and I thought that when I returned, it would simply be as a tourist but not that way at all. The smiles and the people that go HEY you're back makes me feel like all I want to do is go around sighing AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH........
So I guess you could say the trip is going well.............smile. Am heading over to see some dear old friends of ours this evening. She is an amazing woman who actually danced with Mikhael Barishnikov way back when. She is now 78 years old and a goddess on every level. In fact, this amazing Goddess/Dancer still teaches workshops on the mainland on modern dance and other weird and wonderful things. It will be a fun evening.
I bid you all a fond Aloha and I will talk with you again tomorrow.
Blessings

Day 2 in Paradise
I had forgotten what it is like waking up to the sun blazing through the window and the temperatures hovering around 75 F. Gives the whole day a completely different hue. Not to mention a constant glistening of moisture all over my body. I hesitate to say sweat because we always think of sweating as a "girl" as a bad thing but like it or not, it is here. Lucky for me my friend is a nudist so wandering around naked makes the "sweat" thing bearable....smile
Just sitting here starting my day with a cup of coffee and thinking about what to do. Since I love lazing around on the beach I am sure it will be a part of the day. And as I sat here writing, my friend in Barbados connected with me and we shared our own little bits of paradise. Sure is nice to have all these friends living in warm, sunny climes...........I AM a lucky girl.
So I am now off to start my bit of adventure for this particular moment and I'll be sure to share something exciting later. I sometimes wonder about writing this blog. My friend in Barbados who is also "older"..........smile, said to me what on earth is this blog all about. I couldn't really explain it to him other than to say it is a way for me to get into the writing mode on a daily basis again. After all, I do fancy myself a writer and what is a writer to do but write.
Hmmmmmmmm, so until later....
Aloha

island time
Ahhhhhhhhhh, what a wonderful feeling to be able to connect once more with my island shores. Spent the afternoon at my favourite beach just soaking up the sun and reconnecting. Beautiful blue skies, light fluffy clouds and the trade winds blowing over my body. A little slice of heaven on earth.
I also ran into a whole whack of old friends and got LOTS of hugs. Certainly feels like I came home. Funny how that is. Lived my whole life in Vancouver but Kauai seems to feel much more in alignment with me and my energy. Was asked today if I would consider moving back here. A place is being offered to me RENT FREE which is a definite sign that change is most possible when it is desired. But don't fret everyone I am still returning to Vancouver as planned. It is nice to know that there are options though.............smile.
My friend is standing over me wanting to get going on dinner so will write more later.
Blessings to you all and Aloha
.....see Katrice with a big silly grin on her face...............
PEACE............

Taking to the air shortly........
So this is it. The day has arrived. I am so glad that I only made my plans for this trip a couple of weeks ago because the daily countdown thing drives me nuts. And all of those people who keep saying "Are you excited?" I just don't feel excited which is quite surreal actually. An overwhelming feeling of anxiousness is what is happening within me. Don't understand it at all. But hey, whatever feeling is present, the main thing is that I will soon be off to the airport.
Funny thing is that I know that I am going on a vacation but I feel like there will be lots of work to do......whether on others or myself, I am not quite sure. Looking forward to doing my work on the island though as it takes on a different hue when in the tropics. Also, getting a chance to write more will be nice. Not that I don't have a chance to write here but I do tend to clog my life up with other things and I am truly hopeful that this time away will jumpstart the writing once more.
One last check through the suitcase to see what I can discard because as usual it weighs a ridiculous amount. How can a bunch of summer stuff weigh so much. Probably the shoes, the runners, all the hair products......blech........
Aloha and when next I sit down to write, I will be on Kauai wearing next to nothing. I love that about the tropics. Very few clothes, no boots or socks or sweaters.......
Ahhhhhhhh, paradise.
Blessings

time marches on
So am I getting excited about the trip? I don't know if excited is the word that would describe what I am feeling but there is definitely a feeling of anticipation mingled with a bit of apprehension. Kauai does that to me ALWAYS. I remember when I lived on that sacred isle, there were days that I woke up and could hardly breathe knowing that each day could bring something very deep to the surface. And I definitely unearthed many parts of me while there much like I still do here in Vancouver. But knowing that the Goddess energy is calling me back lets me know that She has some incredible adventures in store.
Stay tuned. Today is my last day here and I am heading out to shine my light with those who dare to venture near. I guess saying it is my last day here is a little ominous but that is what just came through. Who knows who I will be in a few short days let alone when I return to Vancouver.
Tick tock tick tock.
Aloha

tick tock tick tock
I keep waking up before the dawn even thinks of cracking these past couple of weeks. It is always the same when I am heading off on an adventure and Kauai is always an adventure, even when I was living there. Not the kind where you are outrunning lions or elephants - interesting that I would think of that - but a deeper excitement on the inner plains.
I know that something of importance is coming and as usual, it eludes me. Of course, these things only come when the time is right and THIS time has been coming for a while now. Going back to my island and it definitely feels like my island. Yesterday I was at a Psychic/Healing fair and as we always do, the rest of the "psychics" and I exchange readings and energy. One of them said that I was going home and while I feel that a part of me has stayed on Kauai, when she mentioned that I realized that I am going HOME to finalize one of those deeper aspects of me that I have been keeping at bay. Just like I had to return to Vancouver 3 years to ready myself for THIS trip. As I sit here writing I am learning so much more about the days to come.
It is always like that for me. As I sit typing away it is as if someone is telling me a story and this story is about me. Stay tuned for I have only 2 more sleeps before this next adventure begins.
Blessings and Aloha

I know that something of importance is coming and as usual, it eludes me. Of course, these things only come when the time is right and THIS time has been coming for a while now. Going back to my island and it definitely feels like my island. Yesterday I was at a Psychic/Healing fair and as we always do, the rest of the "psychics" and I exchange readings and energy.

3 more sleeps to sun and sand
Here I sit today listening to the helicopters overhead. Very very noisy as it is the Sun Run and somewhere around 50,000 brave souls are just starting to head out on their beautiful run around the city......down streets, through the park, funnelling by the beach and over bridges. Not me however as I am not a runner but it is a wonderful tradition in Vancouver.
I smile as I realize that I have only 3 more sleeps and then I will be in sunny Kauai with very few people let alone 50,000 of them running through the streets. I close my eyes and feel the heat on my body, feel the sand below my body and relish the tropical breezes as they swirl around me. I am so looking forward to this and my pulse quickens as I know it is more than simply a vacation. Kauai is always like that. A beautiful tourist destination but for those of us on the Path, we know it is a very sacred place where the sense of the sacred is always present.
What is in store for me will be unveiled when I touch down. Check back here to hear about it as the adventure unfolds. For today, I am heading to a Psychic/Healing Fair where I will be able to share my sense of the sacred with those who choose to spend time with me.
We are so very blessed.
Until next time, Aloha.
