Is the same thing that’s destroying the bees also crippling our farmers?

When Ginnie Peters’ farmer husband took his own life after a sudden mood shift, she really hit the nail on the head when she said:

These chemicals that farmers use, look what they do to an insect. It ruins their nervous system. What is it doing to the farmer?

No one can deny that farming is drastically different than it was in the 1950s, and today it requires extra demand, complete expertise and the stress of uncertainty. Most farmers don’t go into it for high profits.

The EPA, however, has long denied that the pesticide exposure they experience is directly tied to psychological sy...

Some people have a tendency to rush things when they enter into a new relationship. They do so because they are anxious to assure themselves the relationship will be everything they want it to be. Ironically, the way to ensure a relationship becomes everything you want it to be is to give it the time and the space it needs to create its own foundation and define itself. To do so will allow it to expand and grow and become its full potential. Just as you cannot rush the growth of a new sprout breaking ground, you cannot rush a relationship into its highest potential. Humans are often so driven to hurry up and “get there”, not understanding that they are already “there” because the magic is in the unfoldment of things, one delicious fully present moment at a time. ~Archangel Gabriel

THE SHADOWS WITHIN   In this world, it is your interactions with others that allows you to have a human experience. Think on this for a moment. What if there were no other people on Earth? How would you be able to experience forgiveness, sharing or any multitude of events? The world would be a lonely place.

If you believe in the premise that man was placed on this Earth to experience its bounty and to share with one another, then how far is it for you to stretch your mind that perhaps this world is also a place to experience the “negative” side, as well?

Currently, you live in a world of separation. There is so much judgment placed on insignificant things such as body design, race, religion, job choice, etc. that you have created walls around yourselves to keep the “wolves” out. Yet, with each condemning thought you think and word you utter, you push the wolves away and judge them with the same words you use against others.

Looking at the shadow self is not an easy task. We understand this. We also know that hiding in a castle with walls and a moat filled with alligators can be very lonely. It is you that built those walls and moat and it is you who can tear them down and let love shine within.

Seek guidance from your Angels and from those whom you know who have overcome obstacles in their lives. There are many paths you can take. Having assistance from those who have been where you are can be of tremendous value to you.

HJ: Inner wisdom and strength are your guides down the twisting and turning path of life.  The more you cultivate these skills, the better your life will become.  However, quality guidance in this area is sparse at best.  Below you will find an article by Rick Hanson based on a lifetime of experience and study that is filled with gems and wisdom to help you grow and expand in this area.

More and more, people are concerning themselves with their overall health. Drinking water in the morning is a great way to get your body’s functions going after your sleeping fast, but adding one tablespoon of honey and a little bit of lemon juice yields great health benefits like:

• Reduced weight
• Energy
• Purification of the body
• Antimicrobial effects
• Helps with coughs or head colds
• Immune strengthening
• Accelerated metabolism
• Helps with constipation
• Calms the nerves
• Removes bad breath

Try it out and let us know what you think!

I am the Creator, and We can say that you are the Experiencer of Creation. We can also say that you create along with Me. Creator and Experiencer, Experiencer and Creator are One. Two edges of the same sword, so to speak, except the sword is Love, and there are no two edges. Hold your Greatness and Humanness in Good Stead.
 
Would you, those who see themselves as across from Me, defame what I have created? Would you defame the Creator, the Created, and the whole process of living Life? All is not as you think. All is not as you see.
 
All My Children are Heroes of the Day. There is no least of you. There is no one who comes last despite what you believe. There is no fol de rol. Think of it, lives portrayed on Earth, and you are part of it. You are swept up in the Adventure of Adventures.
 
You are at a Feast, and you eat a Fabulous Meal. All of life is incredible in its Exquisiteness. Food is as delicious as the Queen’s Banquet, and all are guests everywhere.
 
Sorrow is an illusion, as if love can be lost or less than I say it is. 
 

Consumer Reports, the nonprofit consumer advocacy organization/magazine, has thrown its support for GMO labeling, and advocates are cheering the support.

On Tuesday, Consumers Union, their policy arm, began touting two studies on consumer behavior and product claims in support of genetically modified food labeling ballot issues in Colorado and Oregon. Consumer Reports is occasionally involved in other policy issues, but the GMO labeling mandate is the only one the nonprofit will be involved with this election cycle.

“Foods that are frozen, made from concentrate or homogenized are all required to be labeled. Why shouldn’t products containing GMOs also be ...
