This Thanksgiving

11/26/2014

Everyday I celebrate the moment I wake up in the morning - I give praise to God for the opportunity to wake up in awesome health and another day to make a difference in the world, in this lifetime. Thanksgiving is all about family, spending quality time with loved ones and forgetting about all the bullshit going on in the world, if only for one day. Remember, family isn't necessarily blood-related and sometimes family have lots of fur and walk on all 4 legs. LOL!!! I think you know what I mean.

Today, I woke up especially thankful for all that I have in my life and I owe a few individuals for my civil liberties. Now, I know I said that "Violence is not the answer" therefore neither is war. But, I can't help but think about the brave men and women, both young and old, who pay the price to protect this beautiful country of ours. Right now, our country is split with the recent incidents of Ferguson and the situation in the Middle East but, I still have hope and faith that we can learn from our mistakes so that our future can be better and brighter. For those brave military men and women who chose to fight, to sacrifice family time and ultimately pay the price with their lives - I will forever be indebted to you for my life, for my freedom.

For my beautiful family (SOME are shown in the slideshow above) you know who you are EVEN THOUGH you aren't pictured on here - forgive me, My Loves, I rushed to hurry up with this blog so that WE would have more quality time to spend. I am so grateful for all of you and I hope you know just how much you continue to bless my life with your presence, I just hope I am able to bestow the same love and loyalty you have given me. Thank you!!!!

Because of all these blessings in my life, I do what I can on my part to help out in the community as well as pray for those less fortunate than me. Prayer, faith and action are keys to succeed lifting up each other - to rise above stronger and better than we were before. At any rate, without further, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY - BE SAFE, BE HAPPY AND GOD BLESS!!!!

Make those holiday memories! Till next time, I bid you all love, light and compassion.

This is me...STRIPPED!

   STRIPPED of make-up! What did you think I was talking about when I said "This is me...STRIPPED!" No matter, I'll leave that to the imagination. I've been asked questions from "how do you stay so positive?" to "I've never seen you cook, do you cook?" Either way, I'm entertained with such questions. I'll answer the latter, yes, I cook - but most of the time, I choose not to and pay other people to cook and serve me as a way of treating and rewarding myself for my hard work.

    Answering the next and most common question, "how do I stay so positive?" Here's what my daily ritual entails, this takes a total of 10 minutes and I do this both day and night:

    1.    I say aloud "God, I willingly release all that no longer serves my purpose, I surrender EVERYTHING TO YOU" while visualizing the first color that pops into my head and seeing that color wash out the clouds and dusts of unwanted energy from my soul THEN I inhale/exhale 3 deep breaths;

    2.    After I visualize my soul as cleansed, I then say aloud "God, I am grateful and thankful for everything, everyone, each experience in my life, I welcome and I am open to receiving...[for example, love, self-love, abundance, joy, etc.]" and I visualize either another color or the same color “pouring into my soul” as I inhale/exhale 3 deep breaths. This second part is to fill-in the empty/clean space with positive/happy thoughts; so that I am protected with happy and positive thoughts and feelings.

    *3.    I also ask Archangel Michael to cut any unhealthy etheric cords and vacuum me, then I take in 1 deep, slow breath. *(I do this additionally and/or when I'm in a hurry in the mornings that I'm running late)

    4.    Then, I do a short prayer (more like a conversation with God) thanking God for waking me up or sending healing and love to my loved ones – I talk to God about ANYTHING BECAUSE YOUR CONVERSATION WITH GOD can be about anything – YOU WON’T BE JUDGED.

    This ritual has changed since the last time I shared my daily ritual with you. The point is I do a daily ritual to honor myself, get me ready for the day and I do it consistently. Things don't happen overnight and I have customized this routine and change it accordingly. Taking the first step is always the hardest but any step at all is guaranteed success over a period of time.

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

Honoring Our Heroes

Happy Veterans Day to OUR Heroes, both living and deceased. A few of our heroes are shown in the slideshow above. Many thanks to ALL men and women who chose to bravely serve this country. I am grateful everyday for this beautiful nation, The United States of America. If I haven't mentioned it before, I'll say it now, I am proud to be an American Pilipina. The USA has been bad mouthed, talked about and called a bully because we are a nation who isn't afraid to stand up, say what we have to say and fight for what we believe in regardless of what the majority might think and say - THAT'S WHO WE ARE. I am grateful for the men and women who have fought and continue to fight for our freedom and who continue to defend this country.

Regardless of our political stance, WE stand ONE NATION UNDER GOD.

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

Emergency crew (Fireman, Paramedics, BART police) arrive on the scene.

News crew interviewing a few BART passengers today.

I'm definitely counting my blessings for this first week of November. I woke up this morning a little earlier than usual to take my car into the shop around 9 am. My mechanic dropped me off at the Hayward Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station so I can hop on my train to work. I thought it was going to be a "normal" day on the train and at work.

I was on the San Francisco/Daly City train, we already left the Bayfair station and was on our way to the next stop. It was at the San Leandro BART station when I noticed our train started to slow down, or what seemed to be an attempt to stop. When the train stopped at the San Leandro station, the engine was turned off but the train conductor sounding frantic told us to remain seated while we were stopped for a medical emergency. About a minute later, all passengers were instructed to off-board the train, exit the station and we were then informed that the San Leandro station is closed at this time during this medical emergency. At first, I was a little annoyed then little by little I gained composure and compassion by refraining from judgment regarding the current situation. So I stayed at the station for what seemed like an hour.

Finally, after I had calmed down and stopped judging the situation, I became my friendly self again and started to make friends. I met Sonia today who was also on her way to work. We got to talking and kept each other informed since it seemed no one at the station could tell us anything except that the station is to remain closed. So I stepped away to buy a hotdog to take for lunch. When I came back, there were 2 young women standing and talking to Sonia. These two women, God Bless their souls but I didn't get their names, witnessed the tragedy on the tracks. From their account, apparently the young girl was either reaching down, lost her balance and the train conductor saw from afar and couldn't stop in time. She was killed by the train I was riding on. One of the women asked if I felt anything while I was on the train to which I replied "No, I didn't feel anything." The women both agreed it was the worst thing they've ever heard or seen in their lives, so much so that they couldn't believe it happening right before their eyes.

Meanwhile, as they recount the incident, I'm putting up my protective blocks all around me and especially on my 3rd eye because I didn't want to see and/or feel exactly what happened to the young girl. By this time, I had put enough blocks all around me where it didn't drain my energy but I did get a headache which was later cured by aspirin. So Sonia and I realized that they weren't opening the San Leandro station anytime soon. We parted ways with the eyewitnesses and I suggested we catch a cab to the next station because by this time, we were scatter-brained and the instructions weren't making any sense to us.

We caught a cab to the Coliseum station. We got to talking about things happening for a reason, life and death. I then opened up to her about my sensitivity to energy because I am healer, she said she'd been looking for a healer like me and she asked for my card. She then opened up to me about having Thyroid cancer but that she refused to allow cancer to take over her life. She chooses to live the way she deserves to live it, HAPPY. When we got to the Coliseum station, Sonia realized that there were no trains running through that station either. We then proceeded to the Fruitvale Station, after a good half an hour, we parted ways.

I knew I was meant to be there, to meet these individuals. I've said this before and I still believe that there are no coincidences; that everything happens for a reason. I hope I was able to help the two eye witnesses alleviate some of their emotional distress and I am happy to have met Sonia and the two women in the midst of this tragedy. I believe this day was a wrong day to begin with but turned out right after all.

Till next time, I bid you all Love, Light and Compassion.
