Well Colleen I see you have been to OZ! How did that work for ya. LOL! 🙂

@bichon18,

Morning to you and Jerry. Hugs to little Ari from Poppy. ♥ I hope you are enjoying your
day so far. Hey are you still in the guest room closet? I admire you for doing that. 🙂

I know you have a lot of irons in the fire. I did order some Skinn Products and I will let
you know how I like them. I hope it is everything Dimitri presented yesterday. ♥

Bon appetit ♥

Protection, good luck, and wisdom are some of the good energies brought by the symbol of the elephant whose trunk is pointed up! So, if you need a little positive feng shui, this is the piece for you.

Looking At What We Don’t Want To See

The feelings that make us want to run away are buried treasure, full of energy and inspiration if we are willing to look.

It is one of life’s great paradoxes that the things we don’t want to look at in ourselves are the very things we need to look at in order to know ourselves better and to become more fully who we are. The feelings that make us want to run away are buried treasure full of energy and inspiration if we are willing to look. These feelings come in many forms, from strange images or snippets of information to recurring dreams and feelings that rise up seemingly without a reason. Whatever shape they come in, and no matter how scary they seem, these messengers bring the information we need in order to grow.

When we are tired of pushing something down, or trying to run away from it, a good first step is to write down what we think we are avoiding. Often this turns out to be only the surface of the issue or a symbol of something else. Expressing ourselves fully on paper is a safe way to begin exploring the murky territory of the unconscious. The coolness of the intellect can give us the distance we need to read what we have written and feel less afraid of it. It helps if we remember that no matter how dark or negative our thoughts or feelings may be, these are energies shared by all humanity. We are not alone in the dark, and all the gurus and teachers we admire had to go through their own unprocessed emotional territory in order to come out the other side brighter and wiser. This can give us the courage we need to open the treasure chest of what we have been avoiding.

Within the parts of ourselves that we don’t want to look at, there are emotions that need to be felt. Unfelt emotions are stuck energy, and when we leave emotions unprocessed, we deprive ourselves of access to that energy. When we feel strong enough, we can begin the process of feeling those emotions, on our own or with guidance from a spiritual counselor. It is through this work that the buried treasure of energy and inspiration will pour forth from our hearts, giving us the courage to look at all the parts of ourselves with insight and compassion.

Morning Cherie I think tomorrow is going to be a busy day in your part of town.
Luke Perry should be laid to rest. I am still shocked at what happened to him.

Le Chef is very good. We had salmon and asparagus with rice. I always use lemon pepper
and garlic on the salmon I wrap it in foil and let it bake for about an hour. I make sure it
is not too dry. I love Salmon and can eat it everyday. A lot of Fish Sale is going on now but
I want my fish fresh. 🙂 Cherie right now I am having an Andrew Lessman drink bottoms
up. I learned a lot from Dimitri James was very likeable and knowledgeable in his
presentation I will let you know what I think of us products. I love the way he did the
makeup. ♥ I would love to come and have a Fish Fry with you. ♥

“All I Wanna Do”

Hit it!
This ain’t no disco
It ain’t no country club either
This is LA!

“All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die,”
Says the man next to me out of nowhere
It’s apropos
Of nothing
He says his name’s William but I’m sure,
He’s Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy
And he’s plain ugly to me
And I wonder if he’s ever had a day of fun in his whole
life
We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday
In a bar that faces a giant car wash
The good people of the world are washing their cars
On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing
As best they can in skirts in suits

They drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks
Back to the phone company, the record store too
Well, they’re nothing like Billy and me, cause

All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard

I like a good beer buzz early in the morning
And Billy likes to peel the labels
From his bottles of Bud
He shreds them on the bar
Then he lights every match in an oversized pack
Letting each one burn down to his thick fingers
before blowing and cursing them out
And he’s watching the bottles of Bud as they spin on
the floor

And a happy couple enters the bar
Dangerously close to one another
The bartender looks up from his want ads

Otherwise the bar is ours,
The day and the night and the car wash too
The matches and the Buds and the clean and dirty
cars
The sun and the moon but
