GREETINGS AND LOVE FROM OSCEOLA!!
A COMPOSITION FOR YOU:
HAPPY, HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU,
MY SPIRITUAL SISTERS AND BROTHERS.
MAY YOU FIND JOY, HEALTH AND HAPPINESS
THIS YEAR AND IN ALL THE OTHERS.
TO COMPOSE MYSELF I MUST BE MY FEELINGS IN THE PRESENT MOMENT.
IT’S WHAT FRANCISCO USED TO CALL BEING CALM, COOL AND COLLECTED.
THAT’S WHEN MY GUIDANCE CAN CLEARLY COMMUNICATE WITH ME.
THIS IS WHEN I CAPTURE THAT FIRST IMPRESSION FROM THEM TO HELP ME
WITH EVERYDAY LIFE SITUATIONS.
THIS IS WHEN MY BUFFER IS BIG SO THERE IS NO OUTSIDE INFLUENCE
AFFECTING ME. BEING IN THE
NOW, BEING THE REAL ME, IS LIVING IN HEAVEN ON EARTH.
MY BIGGEST CHALLENGE TO KEEP MY COMPOSURE WAS WHEN I WAS WITH
FAMILY. IT’S SO EASY TO
FALL BACK INTO THE GAMES OF THE MAZE.
I HAD TO BE ALERT AND USE SELF-DISCIPLINE TO BE THE REAL ME.
IT IS BEAUTIFUL HERE – WARM DAYS AND COOL NIGHTS.
THE FALL FLOWERS ARE ABUNDANTLY BLOOMING AND THE GRASS IS GREEN.
I HAVE A DEEP LOVE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.
I REMEMBER THE PATIENCE AND UPKEEP IT TOOK SINCE SPRING PLANTING
SO THAT NOW I CAN ENJOY THE FRUITS OF MY GARDENING LABOR.
I SPENT A GREAT DEAL OF TIME LAST MONTH HARVESTING PEACHES.
THE TREES WERE VERY ABUNDANT!
THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF PEACHES!
I DID ALL I COULD TO KEEP UP WITH FREEZING THEM.
THERE ARE FROZEN PEACHES IN MY FREEZER AND THE
MY SISTER FROM
A STRAY PUPPY WANDERED ONTO THE CAMP LAST MONTH.
HE CHOSE US. IT’S A
GOOD SIGN THAT WE ARE BEING MORE LOYAL TO OURSELVES AND OUR THRUSTS –
WHAT WE HAVE COME TO DO. I
THINK HE IS ONE OF OUR PAST GERMAN SHEPHERDS THAT HAS COME BACK.
HE’S A BLACK AND WHITE MUTT.
ROBERT CONRAD IS TAKING CARE OF HIM AND HAS NAMED HIM ‘FREEDOM.’
HE IS A LOVING DOG WITH LOTS OF ENERGY!
I LOVE YOU, I RESPECT YOU AND I BACK YOU.
