Seeing an old friend

After work today I stopped at the grocery store to pick up a few things and I saw a friend I had not seen in a very long time.  It was such a joy to see her and visit for a few moments.  Sedona can be such a small town, it amazes me I do not see some people I know more often.  The woman I saw today was one of the first people I met in Sedona.  My how we have changed.  Her daughters are now teenagers, not babies and we both seemed very happy and satisfied with our lives.  What a Wonder Filled Moment it was seeing her after so many years.

A Nurturing Day

I had a relaxing visit to Namti Spa here in Sedona Arizona.  I started at 10:00am with a facial (something I've never done before), and finished off with a reflexology (foot) massage.  It was divine.  My entire body feels better.  My energy bodies feel good too, receiving all that beautiful healing energy from kind loving therapists.  I left about 1:00, wow! That was quite the treat.  I have been very prosperous this month and felt the need to share the wealth and take care of myself at the same time.  Now, it's time for a luxurious bath and then playing cards in front of the fire place with Hunny.  It is a Wonder Filled Day.

My New Computer

How fun it is to have a new computer.  I am fascinated at all of the "apps" and programming included in this lap top.  I am learning how to use tiny bits of it at a time and I accept it is a process.  Two of the things I liked right away were, the speed and the solitaire game.  The one on my last computer just didn't do anything for me.  Oh yeah, the third thing would be the Majong Tiles game.  I had forgotten how I liked to play games and listen to music.  My Wonder Filled Moments were cranking the tunes and playing solitary games.  (I actually had to turn down the music, as it was interrupting Hunny. ;-)  Still my favorite moments of the day.

Smiles, tears, joy!

As I was thinking about what to write, I thought of all of the smiles I saw today.  I was selling jewelry at one of the resorts in town and of course, it is part of my job to smile.  However, I genuinely enjoy chatting with the people who come to the show and occasionally we meet someone who makes an impact on us.  Today was one of those days for me.  I met a lovely couple who had been married 53 years.  When they first came in, I told the man he reminded me of my Dad.  As they were leaving we began to talk.  They were telling me they had six children and ? # of grand children, maybe 16 great grand children, and they wondered if any of them will have kids.  We were talking about how things change between generations.  (I think?)

I told them how when I was in my 20's I was pressured to get married and others were disappointed when I did not.  How in my 30's when some of my cousins began to get divorced, I was told I was smart to wait.  Now in my mid 50's I'm thinking maybe it's time.  So I proceeded to tell them how I met Hunny at the same time my Dad passed and that I felt my Dad had something to do with our getting together.  The next thing I knew I had tears in my eyes.  Then I said I don't know why I'm telling you this, I'm sorry and she reached over and held me, comforting me while I cried.  I was surprised by my emotion.  They were such a loving couple and maybe their love reminded me of how my Mom and Dad were with each other.  I don't know, but may we all have a love like that in our lives.

I saw lots of smiles and enjoyed giving many in return.  I also had the opportunity to shed a few tears and what Wonder Filled Moments those were.

I'm back

Hi All,
It's been a while since I've taken the opportunity to write.  As you may recall I was having many issues with my computer or internet not working well.  So, I thought maybe it was a message from Spirit that I did not need to continue sharing my wonder filled moments with others.  I now realize it was simply time to upgrade the computer. 

This is my first post with the new computer, so far so good.  I have had an amazing few weeks.  I had a client here from Kuwait the first week of November.  I think it was a powerful learning experience for us both.  No doubt she is a "Soul" sister.  I feel much more clear and I know with out a doubt how when we truly trust, and be in the allowing miracles do happen.

It has been a beautiful fall in the High Desert, warmer then usual which we love.  We had one cold week in October and since than it's been like, what we called an Indian Summer, in Minnesota.  It seems to be cooling down though.  Last week we were in the 70's and this week the 60's, and I heard 50's predicted for next week.  Of course we've hit the freezing point at night already.  I've taken pictures here and there over the past few weeks, I hope you enjoy them. 

A friend recently moved into the neighborhood, so we've gone on a few walks.  The views are Fabulous.  Clicking on the pics enlarges them.

I went on tour with Hunny to the Grand Canyon.  I love taking a stroll along the rim and feeling the energy of this beautiful place. 

I am ever Grateful for all of the Wonder Filled Moments I experience on a daily basis.

GC Tour With Hunny

As you may or may not know, Hunny is a tour guide taking people to Hopi, the Grand Canyon and various other places.  Last Saturday, there was an open seat so I decided to go on tour with him.  While the folks were having lunch we took our lunch out to the rim and enjoyed the views.  I must say, I learn something new every time I go on tour with Hunny, he has loads of information to share. 

I am always in awe when I go to the Grand Canyon.  I can still remember my first visit, when the only word I could think of was "surreal."  It is an amazing place, quite magical.  Watching the sun play on the rocks, imagining the river 5000 feet below the rim, knowing that people hike in and out of there almost every day!  Then I got lost watching the Ravens and other birds play with the drop off the canyon edge.  Once again I did take some beautiful pictures, however, I have been unable to figure out how to get them onto my computer in a format that I can use here.  So, imagine the sun playing on the red rocks of the canyon as the birds soar below you.
In Gratitude,
Linda G
