What a weekend! There were many reasons to celebrate this weekend, but the most important milestone celebration was my son, Jonathan's 25th birthday. I can't believe how fast time has flown. Seeing both my family along with my old and new friends, I felt so appreciative and my heart was overflowing with love.

When I saw and reminisced with my old Salinas friends, I immediately thought of the good as well as the not-so-good memories. I let the good take over and dismissed the overwhelming feeling I got when I thought of the not-so-good memories. With the not-so-good memories, I immediately felt the shame trying to take over, but I didn't try to fight it because it is a part of me and those feelings - those memories helped shaped the person I am today. In the end, I realized God placed these people back into mine and my son's life to help me realize and reflect all that I've/we've been through on this journey of life. All of these memories of good and not-so-good made me who I am today. I might not be perfect but these people love me for me and that's why they remain in my life today.

For my new and old friends aka my extended family - I love you for you, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. For my blood family, blood will always be thicker than mud - WE might not always agree on things, WE continue to love and support each other and WE stand together - I LOVE YOU. Thank you all for being in my life, my heart is always full and my love for y'all is unlimited.

I hope you all have this same love I speak of - if not, it's in you, just open yourself to it and your perception will change. Till next time, I bid you all love, light and compassion.

Today's Messages from The Angels and Archangel Michael

Angels' Message: "You have planted the seed of your destiny a while back and now it is time to harvest it. Take action towards this change, please do not fight this shift. As uncomfortable as this change is, it is necessary in the labor of love and of your giving birth to the ideas you planted some time ago. Continue to look for the signs that only your soul will recognize, your heart will confirm such a sign too, then take action. Remember, that change is inevitable as it is imminent at this time in your life. Flow with it, be fluid with it - take that leap of faith."

Note: This prayer (see above) has no expiration - feel free to recite as necessary to assist you on your journey.

Archangel Michael's Message: "Admit to yourself that change is here, that action is now required for your own development and happiness. Be honest with yourself and know that what ever decision you choose and take action thereof, YOU ARE SUPPORTED AND MOST OF ALL, YOU ARE LOVED! Your heart and soul already knows you are part of the solution and helping others improve their situation, in turn, their lives. If you continue to feel fear, call upon God and ask for guidance, The One will send you the right angels to assist you in executing your task. Do not fret, all is working out in your favor. Thrust forward with love and confidence."

Till next time, My loves, I bid you all love, light and compassion.

10.9.14 Message from Archangels Michael and RAPHAEL

Message from Archangel Michael: "Take advantage of this strong moon energy to clear away any unwanted and outdated energies (which includes thoughts, stuck energy and anything negative), feel free to ask for my help to take away this excess baggage from your life and give God permission to pour in your new and revitalizing energy to thrust you forward into action towards your life's purpose. When you do this, you are inviting change and recognizing your own self-worth. You are loved and if you permit yourself to accept abundance, it will come into your life immediately."

Message from Archangel Raphael: "This moon energy may throw you off balance, please ask for my assistance to balance your energy throughout your chakras, body and soul. For when you ask for my help, I shall also balance the feminine and masculine energies within you. Do not worry about the future and the unknown, you are on the right path to your own self-recovery from the negative thought process. Remember, one step, even the tiniest of the steps propels you forward to permanent change. Don't look back unless it is for reflection. Upon reflection, forgive yourself and reassure yourself that all things (good and bad) needed to happen in order to get you to where you are today. God loves you and you are always loved and supported."

Now, brothers and sisters - I bid you all Love, light and compassion. If it ain't broke, don't fix it; at the same time, if/when you are thrust into change - try not to fight it, just flow flow flow with it. Love and be kind to yourself and others.

Excerpt from Dear Jon

Happy October 1st, Everyone! This is my favorite month (besides my birth month) because my son was born in October - YIPPEE!!!! Sharing a piece of my heart with you from my upcoming book, Dear Jon: Letters of a Mother to her Navy Son.

May 27, 2013 9:38 am

Dear Jon,

    Thank you so much for coming home this weekend. I miss you so much and you've only been gone since this morning. Like my Facebook post says - My heart is full of love to last lifetimes. We were surrounded by nothing but love - we had a great weekend. I am tired but a good tired.

    Let's see I started Friday night with a bang. I went out and drank a little too much - but all the while I had fun with Erik - and it was good CLEAN fun. It's been a long time since I've been with a guy friend who treated me the way I deserved to be treated.

    Saturday morning was fuckin' hilarious - it was our short film version of "Hangover" LOL!!!! Touring SFO looking for my lost son. Shakin' my head. Then, we finally got you and on the road...and we got lost going to the mortuary. You chuckled in the back, talking about "I really need to get you a GPS." LMAO!!! (Ok, so at the time, it wasn't funny but it sure is now.)

    We make it to the church and reality hits me that we're there for a funeral. I am so proud of you. You did an awesome job as a Pall Bearer. We then went on to have lunch at Maria's and Tony's house - and you met a new friend. I was being nosy - NOT RUINING YOUR GAME! LOL!!! That was hilarious - I was really looking for a light! How you said it though - you said there were so many smokers there and how and why I couldn't have asked them for a light. LOL!!!

    Then, we headed home with Deborah driving - it is always some kind of adventure with us, ain't it? We get home and we had a real good talk - I said some stuff that I've wanted to get off my chest for a very long time. Sorry if I've overwhelmed you but now, there truly are no secrets from me to you. You seem to understand me and I appreciate your empathy towards me.

    Woo hoo - so we skipped my friend's barbecue and went to see the step daddies in the Fast & Furious 6 instead. YES!!! Everything worked out perfectly. I enjoyed our food and drink fest when we got home. Poor you though, LOL, for falling asleep on the kitchen table. LOL!!!

    Sunday was toned down (Thank God!) even though we drank some more. Auntie Lynn, Auntie Merle, Uncle Manny and your cousins were all happy to see you. Life is great - regardless of the circumstances of why you came home. We even closed out your visit with a call to your Lolo and Lola. I'll keep you posted on Lola's progress. I love and miss you already. Also, Auntie Merle called, after I dropped you at the airport, to make sure we got home safely.

Mommy

This is just a snippet of the book so I hope you enjoyed this letter and I hope you support me and my book when it is finally published in 2015. Details to follow. Till next time, I bid you all love, light and compassion.
