Living from the heart

“People are strange. They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.” – Charles Bukowski, Author

Penny licking out the pudding cup on my bed. 
She never wasted one minute of her beautiful life which she lived completely from her heart.
Bukowski saw life as it is and yet lived deep from his soul I think, letting everything pass through his heart. Most people are afraid to let everything pass through their heart. It hurts too much. And most people are afraid of pain, afraid it has more power than the heart, which is, of course, a lie.
Emotions are part of being human. To push away or deny feelings is to be less than alive. Feelings must be acknowledged if they are to be resolved and dissolved into love, not hidden away to become clouds that obscure the light from shining through. Emotions can be either a flowing river, cleansing and freeing, or a dam that stops the flow.-
from The Sacred River of Life, Lessons 57

Altadena Retreat

Here is a picture from the backyard garden where we had the Altadena Summer Solstice Retreat. It was so nice! A friend from Austin, Texas, was also visiting. She is also in your school - Murphy. And everyone who attended the retreat was a student, so it was very special. Thank you to all of you who came and gave me the opportunity to share the teachings of the angels. Ruth and Hans-Jorgen came from Switzerland, and that was nice for Ursula who lives here and is also Swiss.

It was father's day here in America, which I'd forgotten about, so several people had to cancel at the last minute, and one of our students, Debra, who is a friend of your classmate, Janet, had a bad car accident, so I extend love and healing to her.

We had the perfect number of people, perfect weather, and good food. Here is the healthy healing cleansing salad I made, using fresh kale from the garden and fresh lemons from the trees.



Kale Salad
Ingredients
1 bunch of curly kale
1/3 cup of dried cranberries
1/2 cup of walnuts (or any other nuts)
2 teaspoons of local raw honey
3 tablespoons of a good olive oil
juice of one lemon
salt to taste

Instructions
Clean the kale from the stems and then rip into small bite sized pieces into a large bowl.
Juice the lemon and then whisk in olive oil and honey. Add a pinch of salt to taste.
Pour about 3/4 of the dressing onto kale and with hands mix well and massage into kale until slightly wilted. Taste and then add more dressing to taste.
Add cranberries and walnuts and mix.

one of my favorite poets...

What matters most is how well you walk through the fire.

“I wish to weep
but sorrow is
stupid.
I wish to believe
but belief is a
graveyard.”
