Saleena: A few days before my birthday, I noticed I wasn't expecting that my physical family was going to do much and a part of me was feeling alittle sorry for myself about that. Just a little…. When that starts to happen…I have learned that it is me who sets the tones for my days. Some years I have decided to give present to ohers all day… and that has been a very very fun way to celebrate my birthday in a memorable way.. Today, my day started by being surrounded with a golden love bubble by my beloved, Marimar.
I was wondering why I didn't have any real strong idea of what I wanted to "do" today. It is my birthday, you know. I have always liked to celebrate & be celebrated on the anniversary of the day I arrived on this Planet Earth. My sister, Julie, sent me a whole series of funny & cute Happy Birthday videos for my enjoyment… Her sense of humor is pretty wonderful so her choices were really fun!
WINKS
The video above allowed me to feel the most joy…soooo cute and heart opening… funny how a multi-media thing can do this…touch me like that…. I guess the brain doesn't really know the difference… I created an art business years ago called Winks & painted children's magical images once upon a time, I studied the art of expressing so much with a tiny subtle gesture or expression, like a wink. There fore the name. So I really appreciate good animation that expresses this. I had to watch it on full screen to get the most of all the subtle little expressions & movements… Slowing down to really let it in…what a delight… it began lighting me up!
DANDELION LOVE
I have such a loving and creative family! My daughter, Angie sent me a B-day card full of love and appreciation with the whole thing covered in dandelions. Sharing what a wonderful mother I AM to her, and that she always loved dandelions because her kids, my grandkids, bring her bouquets of dandelions. My kids did that, too. So when the little being in the video brings out the flower, I feels like my family is here singing to me and bringing a little magic & a yellow flower…ahhhhhhh….. 2000 miles doesn't seem so far just now….espescially since she called me… & so did my youngest son, David… we have fun talking aoubt art and creativity… inspiring each other.
NEGLECTED BEAUTY
So I receive another gift… just searching the internet for a picture of a bouguet of dandelions;
I found FRENENIES on a delightful blog called NEGLECTED BEAUTY:
WHAT IS THE NEGLECTED BEAUTY PROJECT?
Answer: Finding beauty in nature– green or human, in places and forms you least expect.
WABI SABI
Neglected beauty's roots are found in "Wabi Sabi"…
…a term that can be difficult to explain. To put it simply, Wabi Sabi is an aesthetic concept and worldview derived from the Japanese, who believe beauty lies in imperfection, and that we must accept the natural cycle of growth and decay.
Wabi Sabi is truly a lovely concept, one that I practice daily when I discover my own examples of "neglected beauty". It's actually is quite green if you think about it. Savor the cycle of life and appreciate the unexpected. ~The Flower Spy
SURPRISES FROM THE UNIVERSE
Part way through my day,
I decided to ask the universe
to bring me an abundance of
delightful, pleasant and magical
presents today.
So I am beginning to
feel my heart opening
& this kind of exciting presence-energy
is filling me now.
CREATIVITY MAGIC
This is the same kind of feeling I get when I begin to play with creative impulses and ideas I receive. When I get excited about being creative, whether it is writing in a magical way, or drawing an art piece out of the rich plenum (void) or writing a song… whenever I begin to express myself and I feel the magic happening… it really "turns me on!" "lights me up" and I find a go into a kind of bliss state that is delicious… so a kind of ecstasy happens. No wonder I like to be creative!
GALACTIC BIRTHDAY PARTY
Yesterday I asked that my Galactic and Star friends & family might gather for some kind of celebration or share some menaingful messages with me. Since I have reopened myself to included life with the higher dimensions, they are just as much a part of my life as my physical friends and family. In fact, when I first got together with Marimar, he shared that his inner life is so rich, that he is never lonely. I have reached that point now. Life in this creation is magnificent and there are so many things & places and beings to meet and exchange with… I am NEVER BORED.
So when Colin came online, his morning, our evening, I invited him and Marimar to join me to see what would happen. First we opened our hearts, this is my favorite part, and feel how much love there is, everywhere.Then we are drawn into BETH, the Living Grid, by our intentions. As Marimar was throwing beautiful rainbow streamers everywhere, and Colin was filling us all with the most deliscious love, we were then drawn into an omni-dimensional space and I was met there by a Lyran who called himself, Lyoni-EL. He took us to a place where a beautiful set of golden strands or strings were running through the space we were standing on… it looked like a giant golden stringed harp.
The energy was so strong that he asked if he could merge with me to assist me in stabilizing in the higher energies. I always check my own knowing to feel him and feel into his agenda and into the appropriateness. I find that if I am truly in my heart, I know. I know instantly how I feel about someone.
I liked him so I agreed, he may even be another aspect of myself. Have been meeting lots of them lately. It was as if I was absorbed into him… I could still feel me and yet when he moved his hands onto the harp string… I could see his hands and I could feel it through his body, his touch. We started to stroke the string… very very gently. It vibrated in such a way that it brought a kind of golden mist inside of me… I drew it into my body then my cells. My intention has been to increase the gold energy signature inside of my body so I might attract more wealth into my life, so this was wonderful!
It felt really great! I was loving feeling it inside me…. then a very big being came slowly moving in toward us… felt a more feminine vibration. She was dressed in something that reminded me of liquid gold….her hair flowed back behind her and turned into spirals, like the Vincent van Gogh's painting:
Starry Starry Night
That does not keep me from having a terrible need of –
shall I say the word – religion.
Then I go out at night to paint the stars. –
Vincent Van Gogh in a letter to his brother.
I mused that she might be an overseeing kind of angelic or deva. She smiled and telepathed to me… "Creator Goddress." I laughed with her. She was beginning to reach out and delicately place her hands on the strings…I was really anticipating hearing what would come from them…. and ………. the power went off!
Dark as dark…. wow…what timing….We lit candles and I was going to check back in and see if we could get back to where we were… sometimes when I encounter higher dimensional energies like this, I get very sleepy. I started drifting in the most pleasant way… ahhhh…what a day… feeling pretty happy and blissed with this golden mist inside me…
I got nicely interupted with another joyful visits and one more little miracle…my Mother, Shirley, had written me an email Sat morn, excited that I would get her gift in time…our post office was already closed, so I figured since I celebrate my b-day all week or longer, that would be a nice surprise for Monday… then Veronique, a dear sistar friend, came in with a big grin and hug and wished me a Happy Birthday and tossed me my mom's letter! Wow, Universal Special Delivery!
She sent me a wonderful musing back through time; a quick review of highlights she remembers of me through my life…Amazing how real the brain can conjure up visions of things that happened so many years ago!
There was one line I wondered about…
she said “I think of the many times
you & Dad understood each other.”
My mind thought
"You left out the mis-"
so I added it as I read.
Then I thought of all the
work & rescripting I have done
to heal all the mis-understandings
between me and Dad….
So then I realized she was just
writing the new reality!
Thank you, Mom!
I love you…what a gift!
and most of all….thank you
for being willing to open yourself to concieve me,
grow me and birth me, receive me,
Then for all the years you attempted to inspire me & guide me.
I am such an independent & creative being.
Thank you for finally letting go, accepting and loving me
inspite of our differences.
For being so generous and loving.
You were my birthday candle burning bright tonight…thank you!

SOUL RECOGNITION
I received pampering and love all day. What a lovely way to spend my special day. My sister, Mary Angelico, wrote me the most soul filled letter of word magic and deep recognitin and appreciation for who I am to her, it touched me so deeply…to the bottoms of my feet and the ends of my soul… whew! I decided to share it with you so you can feel what an amazing being she is, from her depth of understanding to the bizarre humor we share. (this is mild…): This is a Skype transcript:
[7/3/2010 9:31:05 AM] Mary Angelico says: Dear Wonderful Sistar,I know it is your birthday day- at least the birth day of the body form. Your soul- who knows…….??????????????? Before things begin to "heat up" today with activities, I wanted to stop and really feel you- our connection, and give honor to the wonderfulness of YOU!!!! Truly I do feel privileged to be in close connection to the great soul that you are. Many people get snippets of us throughout life- but very very few get the WHOLE BALL OF WAX!!!!
You've been in my life ever since I came in- always there, always an influence- I can't ever imagine my life without you. I have watched your story unfold- the multitude of stories- actually! I have been witness to the unfolding, the evolving of you and your understanding, your gifts, your consciousness. The quality that always stands out to me- COURAGE. You are bold, brave, willing, driven- to always go "where no man has gone!" You are a true explorer. I feel that much of what I have been benefitted by in my life has been through the vicarious fall out of your grand adventures! You, the BIG sister who was always there- my playmate, teaser & torturer, the WILD & COOL teen rebel that I pied on and secretly envied at times; the COMPLEX CURIOUS AS A CAT CREATIVE young woman,the devoted young MOTHER with the cutest kids ever, the BRAVE BOLD Joan Ov'Art; the AMAZINGLY DEEPLY SPIRITUAL & INTELLIGENT Saleena Ki' – and now- the creatress of the NEW EARTH— I sense you morphing by me, nameless one who is deeper, broader, more mysterious and magical than anything known – star being, source ray, ocean bubble— whoever you are here masquerading as my sister—- I BOW TO YOU IN AWE AND REVERENCE AND HONOR and thanky you thank you thank you for coming down for this little episode of earth.

[8:22:11 PM] Saleena says: you…forgot the chocolate pudding…. cheese peas and chocolate pudding!
