Posts related to spiritual topics, including the works of Seth, Abraham-Hicks, Elias, Kris, Ramtha, Bashar, Ernest Holmes, and others
Hello Dear Reader:
Well, Sunday is upon us once again, and we have news to share! The newest member of our family, a grandson, arrived in the world early yesterday morning. He has ten fingers, ten toes, and everything else is exactly where it should be.  He’s beautiful! (but we may be slightly biased) He also has good lungs and a powerful set of vocal chords. An orator perhaps?
Having said that, we’re off to celebrate.
Hugs,

Greetings, Dear Reader!
Well, with the end of the month falling on a Sunday, we’ve all of a sudden discovered that we had one post to do yesterday, two today and one tomorrow! We might have to take a break in there somewhere just to allow the keyboards a bit of a rest!
If we look at time as the linear passing of one moment to the next, then it could be said that we have both been walking a ‘spiritual path’ for a very long time. In some circles that might be cause for veneration, but we both agree that the only question really worth asking from all of this is, “Have we found joy in our discoveries?’ Yes, for the most part we have. We get better at is as we go, or maybe it’s just that we’re getting better at discovering that it always exists within us.
Of the many books that were written by Seth, Jane Roberts and Robert Butts, the first Seth book we each read was ‘Seth Speaks‘. In that book ‘he’ wrote:
”Using the inner senses, we become conscious creators, cocreators.” ~ Seth Speaks, session 515.
The very basis of Seth’s teachings, and the teachings of many others can be formed along the lines of: ‘You form your own reality’. So, taking that in hand we thought that this week we’d turn our minds and our keyboarding fingers toward ‘Conscious Co-Creation‘.
Hugs,

Hi Folks:
This is a very quick post, but I wanted to point you in the direction of the following website. Photographer Dewitt Jones has created a site called ‘Celebrate What’s Right with the World!‘ that will be updated weekly… Each week he’ll post a new image, with the underlying theme of celebrating what’s right! Each image is beautiful on its own, and in taking a moment or two to appreciate it, give yourself permission to appreciate that moment and to give thanks for all that’s right in your world! Practice senseless acts of beauty and random acts of kindness on a daily basis.
Hugs,
Mike.
P.S. Our friend Samantha Standish has two blogs that also focus on this idea of beauty: Zuli Love and The Power to Flower.
P.S. II (the sequel)Â If you’re interested you can click here to see some of my ideas of beauty in the world.
Greetings, Dear Reader!
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
If you’ve read these posts before, you’ll know that every Sunday Marcia and Mike pick a common topic and write about it individually. Neither reads the other’s posts until both are finished. The title for this week’s talk, ‘The Elephant in the Room‘, comes from a post written by journalist Robert Scoble during his time at the 2010 TED Conference in Long Beach, CA. You can read his article here: The elephants in the room at TED. The ‘elephant’ in this case is money. Those having taken a vow of poverty aside, money is often among the most challenging of ideas held by many if not most people.  It doesn’t matter if you are a street person, a corporate executive or a subsistence farmer, or whether the currency is dollars, pounds, rubles, kroner, baht, pesos, rand or yen. Both Marcia and Mike have been included in this, at least at times.
The title of this week’s post came from Robert Scoble, but the inspiration for this week’s post came from our wise and wondrous friend, Samantha Standish and a series of blog posts she has written recently on her ‘I Am Pollyana‘ blog. Our thanks to her and to the many, many people who have been and continue to be our guides, our teachers and our friends.
Hugs,
M&M

Well, Dear Ones …
Ever had a taste of something new? Maybe you went out to a new restaurant and ordered the ‘sampler’ platter to try this and that to see which of the foods you might find yourself enjoying. Perhaps you accepted the little paper cup of some tiny morsel of a product they’re promoting at the grocery store this week. A friend may have made a new recipe and wanted you to be one of the first guinea pigs … I mean ‘fortunate recipients’ of her creative cooking skills.
When it comes to food, new can often be – yet is not always – a positive experience. Our taste buds over time, and with maturity, may add to the list of foods that we accept into our bodies. However, there may also be some things that your mouth just will not tolerate! It may be that the simple thought of oysters (or replace oysters with any food you may abhor) may have your nose twitching with disgust and your salivary glands racing in the opposite direction – causing a strong gagging reflex from the mere mention of the word – even as dramatic as nausea when the smell of it is nearby.
When it comes to any new life experience the same may apply. Some new experiences might get the adrenaline pumping and, once the challenge has been met and overcome, have you standing taller with pride and giggling from the headiness of the encounter. Other new opportunities and endeavours may have you fleeing back to a place of personal safety before you get a chance to even try them out! Continue Reading →
Hello, dear reader!
“Beliefs are neither good nor bad – true or false.
The beliefs we explore are simply empowering or
disempowering in relation to our intending.”
Our topic this week is about beliefs – old ones and new ones. We’re talking about beliefs from the perspective of Seth, channeled by Jane Roberts and recorded by her husband Robert Butts. Seth spoke a lot about how we use our beliefs as the basis for the events and experiences of our lives; one example is here:
“Events are not things that happen to you. They are materialized experiences formed by you, according to your expectations and beliefs.â€
“If you are in poor health, you can remedy it. If your personal relationships are unsatisfactory, you can change them for the better. If you are in poverty, you can instead find yourself surrounded by abundance…â€
“This does not mean that effort is not required, and determination. It does mean that you are not powerless to change events; and that each of you, regardless of your position, status, circumstances or physical condition, is in control of your own personal experience.â€
“If you do not like your experience, then you must change the nature of your conscious thoughts and expectations.â€
“You need to learn the power of thought and emotion… Once you realize that your thoughts form reality, then you are no longer a slave to events. You simply have to learn the methods.†(from the 1/5/71 Class Session)
So, without further ado, read on to discover Marcia’s and Mike’s thoughts on “Beliefs … old and new”.

See this world as a free world, and see everyone in it as trying “through their individual experiences” to find their way back to that calling, back to that Source Energy. And even though there are billions of them going about it in a way that is different than you would choose, there’s no right or wrong way. In other words, bless them all, and get on with the only thing you have any power about, which is opening or closing your vortex to your natural state of Well-Being.

Hello Dear Ones!
An unusual day energy-wise. Have you ever had a day where someone you have to interact with is angry? You know the kind of anger that is so palpable the air is thick with it? I’ve been doing all I can to release, alter, fix, placate, remedy, mollify, modify, help, ignore … I come well armed with a history of rescuer behaviour – a lifetime pattern of it, in fact. Being a rescuer is labour intensive. It’s a lot of work. It’s emotionally and physically exhausting. For me it’s difficult, sometimes, to just let go and let that individual do whatever he or she needs to do to get through their own issue(s) while I get on with living my happy, Pollyanna life.
I’ve begun to recognize the pattern – that when I’m around angry people I get this knot of tension in my solar plexus and I translate it as fear. Not a comfortable feeling. I get antsy, restless, scared: little girl scared. So during those times of being in the same room or environment with an angry individual it is really important for me to find a way to acknowledge the source of the anger as originating outside of me. It is NOT my emotion and I do not need to hold any of it within the framework of my own body or etheric energy field.
There are things I can do… Continue Reading →
Greetings, dear reader!
We watched ‘Harry Potter and the Philospher’s Stone‘ again on TV last night, and although we’ve seen it (several times) before, what always intrigues us is Harry’s transformation from the world of the mundane to the world of the magical, and even more that these two worlds co-exist. Both Marcia and Mike have had many ‘magical’ experiences in their lives, and so this week we thought we’d talk about living a ‘magical life’.
