RIP "Nanna" Parella

Today, as I was driving home, I thought very clearly about Andrew's grandmother, Nanna. I knew that she was quite ill and suddenly felt this great sense of relief from lung issues. Joanie called to tell me that she had passed mid-afternoon. It was wonderful to know that I had sensed this relief and release into the white light. RIP Nanna.

resolved message in intuitive dream

I've had several dreams about my now passed landlady, Maud, recently where she's told me she's not happy with how her inheritance was handled. Not sure what to do with this information, I drove by her old house this past weekend with my husband and son. It had been sold to a developer, rather than passed along to a family member. The place had been totally gutted—gone are its early 20th century woodwork, cherry paneling, gorgeous 3-story stair way—all except the outer walls and slate roof of the old Tutor-Style in Harvard Square was removed. When I saw it, an intense sadness came over me. I knew this is what Maud was upset about.

Later that afternoon, I went out back at my house to cut and arrange some cherry , peach, and apple blossoms in a vase to bring inside. I felt Maud next to me. She had always admired my ability to arrange flowers, calling my sense “Oriental”. I heard her tell me that she loved my arrangement and felt her strong approval—a thank you from beyond, for understanding her message.

Live the Creative Life

The universe has put us all in such an amazing space right now--things are righting themselves and righting reality into truths.

While we're both back working full time again, it seems that the message from the Source is clear--keep plugging away. Make yourself creatively useful, feel good about what you do, take care of yourself and family, and all will be well. Essentially, keep true to all that is right and life will turn out well.

I am reading, "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho (HarperCollins copyright 1993) which has had some amazing passages right from the start. It's a short book, but packs a punch. It's one of those that it couldn't be a better time to read it--it's so appropo. A few sample passages that have been meaningful for me:

"The Soul of the World is nourished by people's happiness. And also by unhappiness, envy, and jealousy. To realize one's destiny is a person's only real obligation. All things are one." p. 22

"...for her, every day was the same, and when each day is the same as the next, it's because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises." p. 27

Just found "Women's Running" magazine while I was helping a friend register at the Boston Marathon today. Seems interesting. If I like--perhaps a subscription?

Be creative,
Cate
