It’s Hard Making Friends

Posted by: Ann

February 3rd, 2010 >> Animals, Cat

I had a beautiful calico cat once, or I should say a beautiful calico at one time had me, as a servant. Cats are never really owned. If they do not like where they are, they move on to a new place and start a new life.

I got her and my big black and white cat, Barney (who I have mentioned before) at the same time. After I picked out Barney I started looking for a female companion cat for him. When she saw that the black and white was out of the cage, she came to the front to present herself. She did not want to stay there behind bars. I saw that she was female and about a year old where Barney was 6 months, so I thought this would be a good match.

When I got them home, I was not so sure I had made the right decision. Callie spent the first three days hiding on a shelf in my closet. I finally forced her out and closed the door. She then proceeded to torment Barney, who was just a large overgrown kitten. It got so bad that I started thinking about taking one of them back, but which one? Barney was so cute and adorable, loved everyone and I really wanted to keep him. But Callie was female and older, two strikes against her for readoption and I was afraid she would be put down. What to do?

At night Barney would take up residence on my bed and start kneading and sucking, slobbering all over the blanket. I was getting tired of going to bed with a wet blanket. So one night I picked up a towel and Barney and headed to the living room. I set the towel down and Barney on top of it and petted him and talked. I told him that this was his momma and he could knead and suck it all he wanted. He finally got the hint and started on the towel. Callie finally came out of the bedroom to see what was going on. When she saw Barney sucking on the towel, she came over and started licking on him. At that point I realized that it would be ok and they would get along.

Satisfaction Guarantee

February 2nd, 2010 >> Life, Physical/Material, Relationship

I just noticed these words on the back of a receipt.

Did you know that the 100% money back satisfaction guarantee is a product of our capitalistic American society? It developed as a way to emphasize that the company behind a product was so sure of their product they would give you your money back if you did not care for the item. Many companies use this marketing tactic very successfully. It gives the consumer a warm fuzzy feeling, a sense of confidence in the product.

When American companies started marketing this guarantee overseas in European markets, the local companies were very upset. They were telling the Americans, “You can’t do that”. Not only were the locals so sure the Americans would lose their shirts, but they were also afraid for themselves. They were afraid that they would be required to offer a guarantee to keep up with the Americans, afraid that they would lose everything themselves with such an offer. But it has not worked out that way.

The majority of people are honest. They are willing to pay for an item they use. But they also want the company to stand up and take responsibility when a product does not measure up. Let’s face it; everything does not work the same for everyone. Many of the people who do not have a good experience with a product do not seek the money back or replacement guarantee. They just write it off as experience and go on.

I think the companies would prefer to have some one return an item than just toss it out. If the company knows about the problem, they still have a chance to salvage the relationship with that person and maybe the many people that person comes in contact with. A retailer or manufacturer would much prefer to have a happy or at least an amiable referral than an antagonistic one.

I offer a 100% money back guarantee with my e-workbooks: “Flying with Confidence” and “Quit Smoking Now!” I know these are great products and I am willing to stand behind them (or in front of them). These are listed in the side panel on the right under “Products”

More Manifesting

Posted by: Ann

February 1st, 2010 >> Manifesting

Yesterday I wrote about my friend’s manifesting experiences. Well there is more. Apparently her fiancé at the time (new future husband) was not really falling for the whole manifesting thing. She kept insisting that he give it a try himself. So finally he put pen to paper and wrote something out.
He was planning on going to school but needed a laptop computer for his classes. So he wrote that down. She told him he had to be specific so he wrote down the color, brand, and all the programs he wanted preinstalled, everything he could think of.

The next day at work his boss told him to take a ride with him to the bank. This was not unusual the boss usually asked someone to go with him when he went to the bank. What was unusual was that the boss just sat there a minute when they were at the bank and turned to Joe and asked, “So you are really planning on going back to school?” Yes was the reply. The boss then reached into the back seat and said, “I guess you will need this” and pulled out a black laptop and handed it to Joe. The laptop was the right color, brand, and all the trimmings that Joe had written down!

Joe has been a believer ever since.

Learn How to Manifest Your Desires

Posted by: Ann

January 31st, 2010 >> Books, Life, Manifesting, Physical/Material

I have a great book for those who are trying to figure out how to manifest.
I’m Rich Beyond My Wildest Dreams–I Am. I Am. I Am.: How to Get Everything You Want in Life
By Thomas L Pauley and Penelope J. Pauley. This book leads you through their story on manifesting their desires.

After I read this book, I was having a discussion about the law of attraction with a friend and she commented that she did not have a clue about how to go about manifesting. So I loaned her this book.

Boy was she good at it. At the time of our discussion, she was living in a very small 3 bedroom 1 bath rental with herself and 5 children one of which was severely handicapped. She had spent Christmas at the hospital that year with the severely handicapped child and lamented the fact that she did not have a husband that could help her with all of this.

After she read the book she found a man and they fell is love. This new love in her life took her to see a ‘for sale by owner’ house. She said she had never considered looking in the ‘for sale by owner’ section of the paper. She fell in love with this house. It was an ultra modern 1950 style, lots of glass, lots of rock. It had 5 bedrooms, three bathrooms, a two car garage, various tool and garden sheds and a separate office/cottage with its own half bath. She couldn’t believe her good fortune. The house was easily three times bigger than her present rental. She worked the numbers and figured she could pay for it even after they got married and her love took a year out to go to school. That was almost 3 years ago and she is still enjoying her house, her husband and her new life.

Emotional Help for Haiti

Posted by: Ann

January 30th, 2010 >> EFT, Energy, Meridian Tapping

Even though I do not watch the news (too much negativity) I have been hearing about Haiti and all that is going on. Everywhere I turn people are taking some kind of collection for them. If the supplies can get through the corrupt government without ending up on the local black market, the people should have quite a few supplies to help them out.

What they do not have is help with their emotional scars. What kind of emotional turmoil would such devastation do to a people, an individual? If you suddenly lost all your family, all your friends, your home, how well would you cope. We get upset when the dog dies. Would we curl up and die? No, we would learn to cope, we would get through it. The end of the world would be upon us but we would continue.

There is something we can do for the emotional turmoil in the area. We can send love and peace. We can do that by intentionally radiating the positive emotions toward the people affected. Sit for a minute and think on Haiti. Then feel peace and send that to them. Then feel calm and send that. Then feel love and send that. Think of the change that could occur if 1000 people sent such good intentions to them.

If you do EFT tapping or Meridian Tapping, try tapping out the emotions as you send them. You know what will happen don’t you? You will start to feel the peace, the calm and the love. You cannot send emotions without feeling them yourself.

Do Not Be Afraid

Posted by: Ann

January 29th, 2010 >> God, Guides, Manifesting, Spirituality

A child who wakes up from a nightmare is often comforted by their mom with the words “Don’t be afraid”.

There are many passages in the Bible that start with “Do not be afraid”. Usually when and angel appears or God’s voice is heard.

Those words are meant to be comforting and calming. They mean that no intentional harm is coming to you.

Using reverse logic, does this mean that we should be afraid if we happen to see an angel and they don’t say, “do not be afraid”? I don’t really think of angels as being something to fear.

I use to want to see a ghost, but then I decided I would probably be scared out of my wits if I did. I have never heard of a ghost saying, “don’t be afraid”. So I decided I would rather see an angel. Then I started realizing that there are many angels among us. Any one who gives of themselves or their resources to help some one in need is an angel in my book. There are angels all around us. I can even be an angel to some one else.

Have you ever been in a situation where you needed help and some one appeared to help you? You had an angel moment.

Several years ago, my car died as I was making a turn so I pulled to the side of the road and tried to start it again. Nothing happened. I was trying to decide what to do. I asked Archangel Michael to help out as I had read he was good with computers. But as I turned the key again nothing happened. I called my husband who was out of State, as if he could do anything at the time, just the comforting “don’t be afraid” voice of his was helpful. But while I was on the phone, someone pulled up behind me and asked if I needed help. It was a mobile mechanic!

He worked on my car, trying several different things and it still would not start. But I was not worried. He replaced Spark plugs, still no start. Then he replaced wires. By this time I had been stalled and he had been working for about 2 ½ hours and I had this distinct feeling that “Ok, this has been long enough, time for the car to start”. So this time when he turned the key the car started. I had to pay him for his work but I still considered him an angel for being there when I needed help. Maybe Archangel Michael did help me get the car started by sending a mechanic.

Herding Children

Posted by: Ann

January 27th, 2010 >> Animals

It’s animal Wednesday!

Since most of my animal stories are about cats, you may think I never had a dog. Not so. We had a dog when I was growing up. My brother thought Max was his but he was really my dog. Max was part border collie and had the protective herding instinct.

Next door lived a family that had an almost 4 year old. One day the little girl was out back playing. This was during a time when no one had fences between the yards and dogs ran free. Max was keeping an eye on Suzanne. Behind Suzanne’s house was a large overgrown vacant area where us older kids would sometimes go and play, hiding in the tall grass. This day, Suzanne was attracted to the vacant lot but every time she tried to go over there, Max would get between her and the vacant lot and nudge he back to her yard.

My mom watched the incident out her kitchen window. Max had incredible patience and Suzanne had incredible persistence but finally Max won and Suzanne gave up.
Max knew that she should not go back there by her self. Suzanne had gone back there with us older kids occasionally but somehow Max knew it was a bad idea for her to go back there by her self. I think that takes some in depth reasoning.

I love dogs and hope to have one again someday. It is just that our current lifestyle is not conducive to keeping a dog.

Depression Removes Your Passion

Posted by: Ann

January 26th, 2010 >> Books, EFT, Energy, Life, Meridian Tapping

Yesterday I talked about passion and how every one must live their passion.

I can think about one group of people who do not have passion — they have lost it. It reminds me of the Golden Compass where every one had an animal familiar attached to them but when the familiar was “detached” from them they were lost, incapacitated, did not know what to do. To me that describes a depressed person because they have lost their passion.

I can talk about this because I went through a year of depression myself. It is difficult. You do not see any sense in life. No activity really makes sense. There is no hope.

In my case the cause was unacknowledged anger. I did a lot of self-help and inner child work at that time because I remembered feeling different and knew I could feel different. I finally stumbled on a section in a workbook that said to write a letter to some one you are mad at. I could not think of any one but decided to write a letter to some one who just popped into my mind. There is a reason things pop into your mind at specific times.

I did not know I had so much pent up anger. But boy did I feel good afterwards. I did 5 loads of laundry, cleaned two bathrooms, mopped the floor and went for a walk!

It is funny, even though the depression had left, I still felt like the depression was the truth and the life I was now living was a lie. It was almost like a wet blanket was thrown over the smoldering coals, but the coals were still smoldering. It did take several more years to totally smother those burning coals.

I did not know about EFT or Meridian Tapping at that time. If I had I believe the depression would have left faster with no smoldering coals below the surface.

If you have depression, check out my website and book a session. Depression is one of those deep issues that may take more than one session. www.naturallyresilient.com
