The "Sage of Wands" and Communicating on a Spiritual Level to Change the World

We had a night out last evening.  We were energised and pumped by a fiery flamenco show, "La Tarara" as put on by Kasandra Flamenco.  She is Canadian and then brought in two male flamenco dancers from Spain and musicians from around the world to round out the performance.  A wonderful and well-received show as the audience leapt out of their seats to give a rousing applause and standing ovation at the end of the show.

Spirit Is and today's Gay Tarot Energy is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

Today's Energy emanating from the “Sage of Wands" is advising us to help people open up their hearts, minds, bodies and souls to thinking outside the box as well as to be open and receptive to viewpoints other than their own and even those that may even vehemently disagree with.  We need to encourage people to open their minds through their spirits so that they move beyond their way of thinking and can see, hear, and especially listen to what others have to say through the more objective non-judgemental world of spirit.

We must empower people to move beyond human logic, judgement, reaction, and way of seeing things so that they are open to the world of possibilities and new and possibly unlimited ways of thinking and seeing the world.   We need to get them to the world through new eyes, to have them connect with others and world, spirit-to-spirit!

This is how we can change the world not for our own benefit but the benefit of all as we are doing this in the spiritual realms.  If we are drawing all of our dreams, desires, ideas, opinions, attitudes, etc through spirit then our energy is rooted and comes from the cosmic realms where are one with the "All" and where our unique and individual expressions in the world are more pure and universally driven.

So go on and change the world for you are doing so from one spirit to another and for the good of all!

Thank You Spirit.

"IV The Emperor" and Being an Authority Figure In and Over Our Own Lives

Spirit Is and yesterday's Gay Tarot Energy was the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

Today's Gay Tarot Energy is and I am “IV The Emperor: Sometimes one must be a benevolent despot.  Organization.  Taking charge.  An authority figure.  Utilizing discipline to provide a structure for creativity.”

"Utilizing discipline to provide a structure for creativity” is what we all must do and what I must do for myself today.  I need to dedicate time to and focus some good energy on fine-tuning my tarot specialty so that I, through the gift, guidance, and love of Spirit provide the best spiritual and tarot services to those who are drawn to or seek out the services I provide.  I want to do this through the grace and presence of Spirit within me so that it comes not from me but the infinite love, strength and presence of Spirit that is dwells in this world and all that is beyond.

"Taking charge" in this case is for me about taking charge of our lives and being "a benevolent despot" to ourselves more than it is about being "An authority figure" over others.  This tarot energy is all about have full control over ourselves today.

Thank You Spirit.

The Sage of Wands and Desiring to Make an Impression Upon the World

Hhhmmm...I awoke several times throughout the night and my dreams were a bit odd.  A large uprooted tree with a large flat circular root mass reaching toward the sky but the tree itself nowhere to found, a royal bank in a large building of buildings, perhaps looking for a former employer who I worked for at a theatre or was it that character from Wreck Beach whose voice could be heard many a time during our visits this past summer and a decrepit building that looked as if it was built hundreds of years ago yet is still standing looking much like it did when it was first built.

Spirit Is and today's Tarot Energy is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

As I contemplated the energy of today's “Sage of Wands" during lunch I had the thought that I need to seek out my goals using the many great benefits and blessings of technology.  I need to reach out to as many people as I can that may help me diversify my ability to reach people as well create new potential income streams.  I want to reach out to people so together we can bring about positive change to this world...each of filled with and emanating the awesome light, love, peace, compassion and empathy that radiate throughout the universe.  Care to join me?

Thank You Spirit.

The 'Sage of Wands' and Changing Our World by Reaching for Our Highest Ideals

Friday, October 14, 2016.  Thank you for the gifts of the crows over the past few days including today a great reminder of the activeness of Spirit in my life and a nudge to read the book I received from my partner in March "Gifts of the Crow".  I think I vaguely recall a few crows filled my dreams last night.

Today's Tarot Energy is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

"Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint" is calling my attention and for good reason too!  This is the best way to challenge ourselves to know exactly what we want, what we stand for and what we hope to accomplish.  It helps us develop our plans, strategies, actions and calls to action that we hope are shining example for people to not only look to but also respond to.

So yes, I'm "Wanting to change the world" but not only for me, for us, for all of us, for all of humanity, the human spirit--who see, know, feel, understand that we can, humanity can, should, and needs to be better than we are.  Let's change the world together by reaching for our highest ideals.

Thank You Spirit.

The 'Sage of Wands' and Winning Other Over With Authenticity, Passion, and Humility

Sunday, February 28, 2016.  So much of what we strive for and chase outside of ourselves is latent, unused potential hidden in the depths of our beings.  If only more of us learned how to tap into this knowledge, wisdom, and power...what a wonderful world this would be!  Peace is not something we chase, it has to come from the very depths of our beings and fill every atom of our hearts, minds, bodies, and souls for it to take root, grow and blossom out in the world around us.  Peace has to start somewhere and if it doesn't start with us as individuals and we continuously wait for someone else, we'll always be waiting and wondering where it is.  Let peace rise up from within us and spread out as if on the wings of a snow white dove...

Today's Gay Tarot Energy is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

Leading by example, truly believing in what you stand for, what your opinions are, and living a principled life will catch people's attention and perk up their ears where they are willing to listen to what you have to say.

And change must start with us as individuals.  If we live and breathe change when it's necessary and are willing to admit that we learn and adapt when we are mistaken or wrong will further strengthen our attraction to others and help them see us as real people and very much like them instead separate of above them.  Which then gets me to the point that we must see ourselves as equals with and to others and not in any way allow thoughts of us being better than others get into our mindset.  We are equals and stand with others!

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The 'Sage of Wands' and Convincing Others By Being True To Yourself

Monday, February 15, 2016.  Many dreams about my model railroad last night as well as about appointments for spiritual coaching and tarot storytelling.  I had a cool night of sleep and quite enjoyed myself as I slept.

Today's Gay Tarot Energy is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

I see the “Sage of Wands" as telling us to change people's minds by example through living a purposeful life, true to our nature and that best maximizes our inner skills and talents and reflects our true identities.  Honesty, integrity, and principled living are the best ways to show people that we along with our thoughts, words, deeds and actions are authentic and deep rooted through and through.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Sage of Wands and Making Progress

Thursday, May 28, 2015.  We had another decent night of relaxing and enjoying another quiet evening.  I cut to size a WildWood Tarot reference booklet I made for myself earlier in the week and I'll do the same to a couple of others I have for a couple more Tarot decks I use on occasion.  The smaller size is more manageable and is easier to carry around with me when I desire to have some part of Tarot come with me on my travels.  Aha...another idea just came to mind...hhhmmm...I'll have to give this some more thought.

I hit the bed later than I was hoping but I was caught up in the news and one of the blogs I read and I was sleeping very well until the alarm sounded and I'm feeling it now too!  I feel tired and my eyes are heavy and droopy.  I'm going to be struggling to stay awake tonight.
Spirit Is and today's visiting Tarot is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

We have much energy behind and working for us making this a great time to accomplish goals, projects, and other tasks that have been sidelined for one reason or another.  We have a direct path to attainment should we wish to take it.  If we put forth energy now it will only be nurtured, enhanced and strengthened by the cosmos and this will propel us forward and unchallenged in our efforts.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Sage of Wands with Further Guidance From the Youth of Coins

Friday, February 6th, 2015.  A somewhat odd night of sleep where I awoke on occasion worried about the time as well as from having surprising dreams of friends who, I have not seen in years and of magical workings I've never given any thought to.  Thank You Spirit.

Today was a short work day as I had a "vision field test" appointment at 3:00pm as there is a history of glaucoma in the family.  The test, a combination of tests took about fifteen minutes and I arrived back home around 4:00pm.  It's kind of a bonus as I did not realize that this is a long weekend when I booked the appointment about a month ago.  Glad to be home early and I think it was a good day for it as the work day was kind of slow even with it being a long weekend and all.

Thank You Spirit.

Today's visiting Tarot Card is the supporting card from yesterday, the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics" and the supporting card of the day is the “Youth of Coins: Focusing on the physical.  Beginning a regimen.  Matters relating to nutrition and exercise."

Everything is in place for us to move forward with and achieve our goals. Welcome this gift of good fortune and wisdom that is ours to take hold of and use to strengthen our energy to carry forth and persevere as we go about our daily lives doing our part to make the world a better and brighter place by enhancing and improving our own lives.

Cosmos, Gaia, and Tarot.  These are the very fabric of our being and we must embrace our heritage and history and move forward knowing that we are more than flesh and bone.  We are the creators of our very existence.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

"I The Magician" and the "Sage of Swords" and "X The Wheel of Life" and the "Sage of Wands"

Thursday, February 5th, 2015.  Yesterday, I took the day off from doing anything after a busy and long day at work.  I arrived home around 6:30pm and I was exhausted.  However, I did reflect on Tarot in the morning and yesterday's visiting Tarot Card is "I The Magician: To live fully, one must create a life, not merely react to it.  Creativity.   Ability.  Making something happen" with subtle guidance coming from the “Sage of Swords: Making a mature, informed decision.  Being too judgmental.  Mediating a dispute.”

Let's not deny the call of Spirit whatever way we may encounter such callings.  Be true and acknowledge Spirit's presence in our lives.  Heed the call and make something happen with it.  Let Spirit be the guide.  The we all can use our rational voices by way of Spirit to make decisions on what direction to take as new opportunities open up before us.

After relaxing the night away, not evening really having the energy to do much but sit and do a whole lot of nothing I crawled into bed around 10:30pm.

This morning I awoke and made great effort to embrace Cosmos, Gaia, and Tarot as my hands worked magic with Tarot.  Spirit Is and today's visiting Tarot Card is “X The Wheel of Life: If life on the rim makes you dizzy, move to the centre. Awareness of the cycles of life. Equanimity. A change in fortunes. Guidance from your future or past self” with some assistance from the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

Life evolves and changes and we can exert control in our lives by acknowledging the fact that we play an integral role in the fate of our own lives.  We can shape and shift the potentialities and possibilities that we have in life through recognition that we are a necessary part and should be an active part of the world we live in.  We must be proactive in life and not merely wait for it to happen or it will very simply and very quickly pass us by.  Take an active role in the change that happens in your life embrace and deal with it for change happens whether want it to or not.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The 3 of Cups also with a Visit from the Sage of Wands

Sunday, November 2nd, 2014.  A relatively quiet day yesterday and a bit disappointing as our new washer and dryer could not be installed yesterday.  But we survived that minor inconvenience and just moved along with other more fun activities.  I tinkered around with my model railroad.

Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “3 of Cups: A Good Time.  Happy, comfortable times together.  Quiet enjoyment. Celebration.”, with support from the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

A nice reminder to enjoy the simple things as well as the simplicity that life can offer when we are tune with ourselves and work in harmony with Spirit.  Not always easy to do but some days are just simple and filled with simplicity and worthy of quiet enjoyment and fulfilled happiness.

When we are tune with ourselves and with Spirit others are more easily inclined to be on our side “so-to-speak”.  They’re more comfortable with who we are and how we think as we communicate with them and extend ourselves through the unifying spirit of all that we are.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Sage of Wands and 4 of Wands

Friday, October 17th, 2014.  I slept well but awoke about 20 minutes before the alarm.  Somehow, I know that the sound of the alarm is not too far away so I cannot drift back to sleep as much as I’d want to.  No worries.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”, and the supporting card is the “4 of Wands: Setting the Stage.  Opening night finally arrives.  A venture has been established.  Celebrating initial achievements.”

I’m doing well at work and also in understanding, appreciating and believing in myself and the new career direction I’m taking.  I’ve rediscovered and am maintaining my connection to the cosmos and keeping myself grounded and energized by all that is.  Spirit is alive and well and I cherish my sacred awareness and spiritual experiences.  My skills and talents are shining displays of Spirit in life and for this I am eternally grateful.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Sage of Wands and Moving Forward

Friday, July 25th, 2014.  Got to bed early last night and found myself startled and somewhat surprised when the alarm sounded this morning.  I even thought I slept in for a brief second and was going to be late for work.  I thankfully fell asleep after tossing and turning for a short spell last night.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

I do want to change the world and I’m doing this through a change in attitude, outlook, behavior, thought, belief, and faith.  I’ve learned from my mistakes and have gained much insight that is allowing me to move humbly forward into the future.  By grabbing hold of my individuality and accepting my goals as my own and worthy of pursuit I’m finding success.  Life is a precious gift full of possibilities and opportunities we just have to open our eyes to see them.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Sage of Wands and Creating My Masterpiece

Happy Boar’s Head Supper!

The Boar’s Head Supper is an English tradition.

We had brunch at our friend’s place; they whipped up some waffles with fruit, maple syrup, and sausage.  Then we headed home for a quiet evening to ourselves as tonight we are headed out again to have dinner with friends.  But before that I hope to construct some shelving for underneath my crafting table in an effort to expand and provide better storage for my crafting supplies.  I hope this works out as I see it my mind.

Thank you Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

I need to find the inspiration to be more creative, original, and take action toward creating my masterpiece whether it be cards, ventriloquism, writing, or building my model railroad empire or all of the above.  Action is required in order for me to find fulfillment in my life and maybe even steer myself toward success I never imagine possible.

The key is to draw inspiration from and heed the message of tarot, often messages in tune with my inner voice.  I’m being urged to take a bold, new direction on my life.  I need to take a risk and have no fear!

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Sage of Wands and the Time to Take a Risk

Wishing everyone a great Christmas Eve.  May we all send out smiles and greetings to all we cross paths with so the season is filled with peace and goodwill to all.

Yesterday was another quiet day where not much happened until the afternoon and evening where we hit downtown Vancouver to joins for drinks and dinner.  We ate at the Pink Elephant.  The service was great, our server has a great sense of humour and fantastic customer service skills, the food was decent, good enough I suppose but I’ve had better.  Then we all parted company with wishes of good cheer for the holidays!

 Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

This card is a card of boldness, originality, risk, flair, and action.  A card where we are encouraged to use our Divine gifts to lead and change the world in our own little ways, change for the better.  Small, seemingly insignificant steps can sometimes lead to the most significant and greatest changes taking place.  So we must never underestimate the power of our actions, especially in this age of social media and global reach.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Sage of Wands and Showing My True Colours

We had another quiet day yesterday.  I took the car in for an oil change and a pre-road trip inspection.  We ran a few errands, met up with a few friends and just had a day as it unfolded for the most part.  Last night was also the Full Moon.  She in all her glory was not very visible from our place and although I did get a peek of her if I stretched out over the balcony railing, she beckoned me to come be in her presence this morning and this is what I did.  The Sun was rising however the Full Moon was clearly visible from our dining room window so I sat and celebrated the Full Moon in serene silence.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

The best way to have the greatest affect/effect or influence over others is simply to be yourself, to believe in yourself and your convictions and this is what I try and do each and every day.  The last ten or eleven months I have been trying my best to put myself on full display to the rest of the world by not hiding behind any masks or false facades and simply showing my true colours to those around me.  This is a constant struggle as our conditioning is to wrap ourselves in protective layers so as not to open ourselves to harm or hurt from others or the world around us.

I do my best to believe in myself and my convictions, to allow my originality and inspirations to take form.  For the past eleven months I’ve been working at living out my goals and dreams and doing a decent job of it.  I try to be content and always live and be present in the present moment, to appreciate each and every second, minute, and hour of each and every day.  I’m acting on my own behalf, writing my own story and doing my best to live my life my way as well as to live in harmony with the world that is our reality.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Sage of Wands and Being Bold and Daring

Happy Birthday Brother.

I continue to learn and grow and trust in Spirit and the influence of intuition and the energy that flows in and around and through each and every one of us.  I am see, feel and sense the Divine Presence all around me and in my houseplants, books, crafts and all of nature that graces our city including the spiders that have taken residence on our deck.  Thank You Spirit.

Although, my activity at my RV yesterday may have seemed to have not been much of an accomplishment I accomplished plenty in terms of learning and Spiritual growth as I allowed myself to simply be and absorb and interact with the energy flowing around and through me.  For the first time in a long time I simply sat and sat comfortably in a chair and enjoyed being home.  Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

As I was awaking from my slumber I was contemplating and almost resigning myself to the idea of finally applying for jobs and in a sense giving up on my dreams of life in an RV.  I’m trying my best fix up the RV so I can take up residence in a home where my heart and soul wish to be but at the same time I’m taking time away from developing a website that will connect me with the rest of the world and provide the world with a glimpse of what I have to offer—handcrafted greeting cards and bracelets, knitted items, ventriloquism, a mystery hobby, Tarot, Mystical Research, and Metaphysical Science and whatever other talents may come of use while on the road.

In having given serious thought to working for someone else the Sage of Wands pays me a visit.  He is reminding to be bold and daring, to believe in and have the courage of my convictions as well as to believe in myself.  I need to harness the energy I once had that gave me the assurance to take risks and win.  I need to understand and appreciate and know with unflinching courage and conviction that I’m already on the path I wish to lead and I must not allow doubt(s) to creep in and take hold as I am forging my own path and doing so with much power and energy with me every step of the way.

I Believe.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

We are Greater Than We Are the Sage of Wands

So on Saturday while in Seattle we took in the U District Street Fair after a coffee break/pit stop at Cloud City Coffee during the late morning and early afternoon before heading off to lunch in the Capitol Hill area at a restaurant that will remain nameless due the lousy food we had there.  We also stopped in at the Edge of the Circle Books —a favourite store of mine, but I walked out of there empty handed but that’s perfectly fine with me—the ring I really liked was just not meant to be on my finger.  We headed to one of my favourite stores at Pike Place Market, Tenzing Momo where I picked up a copy of Withes and Pagans and the 150th issue of Parabola magazine.  Spirit was strong in both of my favourite stores.

Saturday evening we took in an excellent performance by the Les Ballets Trokadero de Monte Carlo.  It was wonderful to see a stage full of men dancing Swan Lake and a couple of other lesser know ballets—highly recommended!

Oh, on our way down to Seattle, actually while trying to make our way to the border I noticed a sign for Tynehead R.V. Camp along Highway #1 and I felt a need to take note of this place for future reference and a place to park my RV for awhile.  While zipping along I-5 I noticed quite a few RVs that stirred up my desire to be driving my own RV to new and familiar places living the life of my dreams.  This also happened while we were traipsing through the U District Street Fair as many of the vendors had arts and crafts style products display as well as for sale.  Intriguing, enticing, and inspirational—I can do that, I will do that—that’s what my RV is for, a traveling crafter’s studio.

Thank You Spirit!

As I sat here last night listening to a few songs that played on the radio in a few different places we visited over the weekend, a single thought plays through my mind and that is that “we are much greater than we are”.  We are much greater than we are or are allowed to be by a society gone mad over money and possessions.  Is this simply a rant or the stark reality of the world we live in today?  This afternoon as a friend browsed through a discount retail outlet mall as we headed back home, my Spirit sank and cried; only finding solace with a tree planted in the midst of this crazy place of mass consumerism.  Thank You Spirit.  Then we drove a little while longer before stopping for lunch and my Spirit soared as I heard and listened intently and Spiritually to the Beatles as they sang “Let it Be”.

We are much greater than we are; look in the mirror for the answer; look beyond your own reflection, see what’s behind it and there you will find the answer as to how you, how you can be greater than you are; how each of us can be greater that we are.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

As I look at this card and think about its message to me for this day I hear the song “I Hear You Calling” as sung by Chalice and Blade and in fact now have it playing in the background as I write this.

We are much greater than we.  Please remember this…we are much greater than we are and we all have so much more to offer this world that is sorely in need of a new yet old way of thinking.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be

Changing the World

Another blessed day is upon us.  Spirit is welcoming us to a new and glorious day.  Although the skies may be gray Spirit’s love is always wrapped us.  We are in Spirit’s warm and loving embrace, a warm, soft wind gently caresses us we breathe in and awaken our souls with the fresh morning air.

Thank You Spirit.

A quick dinner was had last night, followed by an hour or so of relaxation before giving into the sleepiness that gently prodded us into crawling into bed, slipping under the covers and allowing sleep and Spirit to nurture us in our slumber.  The loving rains of yesterday did not dampen my spirit.  The rain is no longer a nuisance to me and I kept on with my tasks for the day—enumeration.  The day went by quickly and ended well.
Thank you Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Wands: Wanting to change the world.  Changing your environment by winning others over to your viewpoint.  Critical acclaim.  Politics.”

Yes, this is about conversation, listening, and compromise.  Tied into yesterday’s card and one can see that change is and can be real, we just have to get over this need to have winners and losers and be willing to find the middle ground.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Sage of Wands and the Life of Pi

Sage of Wands

Last night upon seeing the Sage of Wands appear, I quickly read the description for this cards and moved on to other things.  After some thinking as I lay down to bed I did fall asleep but all of my thinking was caused by the "wrong" description I read regarding the "Sage of Wands" as this morning upon looking at the description for this card again I noticed that it was not what I read last night.  Last night, instead of reading the description for the Sage of Wands I instead read the description for the "Sage of Swords" and these two cards as you probably already know are very much different.

I was somewhat surprised by what I read last too as it did not really match the imagery of the card but nothing lost here although that description I read did allow me to think and come to some decisions regarding the RV so I am quite happy about owning an RV today.  So without further delay, last nights card revealed as I mentioned before is the "Sage of Wands" and relates to "wanting to change the world; changing your environment by winning others to your viewpoint; and critical acclaim and politics".

Life of Pi by Yann Martel

I just finished reading this book and all I can say is what a great piece of work did Yann Martel put out.  This book is superbly written and an absolute joy to read.  I found it so hard to put down that I finished it in a little more than two, maybe three days.  I love books that almost read themselves.  The last book I read quickly was Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code and I think I read this book in about a week or less.  The Life of Pi though is an incredibly well written book that I highly recommend one to read.  After a few days of absorbing this book I will return once again to Crime and Punishment.  Although, I am thoroughly enjoying Crime and Punishment I find it a little difficult and tiring to read, the tiring part is not from boredom but rather the way in which the book is written.  But I will push through and complete this book as well.

Although a few things are going on I am feeling rather at ease and quite comfortable with my self and the plans that I have so I will let things continue as they want to be and continue to give thanks for the life I have and the path the universe has me on.

Thank you and I bid you peace. . .
