New Month.

Well the past month has been an interesting one- and it flew by.
I have dedicated pretty much this month to work, I started work on Sept.5th and had just one day off which I went up to Regina for my mom’s 60th birthday party and a rider game. It’s been nice to catch up with some friends in Estevan… but the next month I need to just focus hard on making more money and not spending any. Even though I have been working A LOT this year, I still actually have nothing to show for it now. It’s all gone to my education bills and flights to get places to take care of my life.  I needed to fly to Mexico to take care of my papers this summer and then try and find a new place that will be suitable for me to live in the next year while focusing on my studies, I needed to spend a couple weeks in Mexico City as I waited for my meeting with immigration and then I also flew to Puerto Rico- during the only time I had available after getting my Visa and needing to be back in Canada… which never allowed me the opportunity for seat sales and actually costed more than I would have wanted- but I had been talking to a good person for some months and wanted to see if we would be compatible in person… we were, but my manifestation was lacking in chemistry…

I am happy I was able to go to these places though and enjoy the beauty … as this summer, both Mexico City and Puerto Rico have had some crazy natural disasters.

I spent a few days in La Condesa in Mexico City and really enjoyed walking the streets as well as the restaurants and bars… there was a devastating 7.1 earthquake that killed many Mexicans as well as destroyed a lot of buildings. All of my good friends are okay- but many have been affected by their work places being destroyed, and also nervous about another earthquake returning… as there was some intense earthquakes already this summer.
There was 2 earthquakes in the past 24 hours.
37 earthquakes in the past 7 days
335 earthquakes in the past 30 days
1,552 earthquakes in the past 365 days

Actually the earthquakes are mostly hitting Mexico, Oaxaca and Chiapas.
And Oaxaca is the other place I spent a week at this summer… so pretty much, aside from Saskatchewan every where I went this summer has been pretty shook up… I think the beach where I will go to live so I can afford to eat fresh veggies and fruits and stay healthy while being a student is doing okay, thus far… however, hurricane season isn’t over yet.
Puerto Rico, was also hit SUPER hard this year. Harder than it has and  unfortunately for Puerto Rico, it’s an island and it’s a territory of the States that the States have yet to help in a impressive way. There are many Puerto Ricans who are dying from the conditions that hurricane Irma and Maria have left them in. My friend who I met and his family, who I also met and even stayed with for several days and went to the waterfalls with… well they are in a bad situation. My friends Sister who has two little kids, completely lost their house, they don’t know where their one brother is as they haven’t had communication on the island now for a week… 90% of the island doesn’t have electricity, there is no gas or diesel, people are needing fresh food and water, people are stuck in floods and the roads are washed out and even people are dying in the hospitals that don’t have gas. It’s been 10 days since Maria has hit them and their President is not doing enough to help them and it’s scary… It’s also scary that you can’t trust the news anymore and especially the word and tweets from the President. From his debates to his current political opinions, he constantly just says untruths and unsourced information that people just accept. Especially people who are less educated- of course, we are taught to listen to and respect successful business people and leaders… especially- the leader of AMERICA. I am happy that my friend wrote me and he was so sweet and pleasant even talking about small talk and pleasantries to my family- right after his sentences explaning about the sad news of the loss of his family and country. His family already had been under stress, as the economy in Puerto Rico is very bad. The country is bankrupt and people were depending upon the tourism industry and such to keep them going… the island was so precious… I really pray that they will be able to make it through this and rebuild even stronger than before, but the things is… they have no money? So how can you do that? I remember thinking how awesome it was that there was government subsidized housing near the beach-  you know, that people on social assistance, could be a minute walk to the beach and live in such a beautiful place… and now I am just worried for those people as for sure the water would have flooded them.
The one island, Vieques, that I spent a few days at and found absolutely beautiful, and has been devastated… some of the beaches are gone, the buildings destroyed, electricity is gone and it’s been evacuated. I feel so bad for the sweet locals that I met there, for the guy who I beat at dominos. He has been working so hard over the past years at the hotels to try and safe enough money to buy a little shack so he could begin selling coffee and juices… for sure those shacks are now gone… along with his dreams.  And if they were evacuated to the main island they won’t be in a much better situation.

So tonight I checked my bank account and made payments for my storage locker in Mexico, payed my rent here in Estevan, and I payed off the payments I made for donations to Mexico and realized I now have no money again… and I felt stressed and upset for a second… then I quickly told myself that I need to be grateful for the opportunity tomorrow to go to work and make money. Even though I will be getting laid off this week as it’s the end of the overhaul, I only have a few weeks until I start another one which should be a month. I am renting a great room and basement from my best friend, I already have my school books for my next section payed for and in my hands… I am in good shape. I have enough rice and beans to last me a month so I just need to be super frugal. Ride my bike as much as I can until it snows, detox, practice yoga, meditation, study, watch movies, visit with old friends in their houses and hopefully some people will want some massages and therapies too so I can keep practicing and growing. I may not have many things accumulated or much in my savings account… but I have the opportunity. And I am from a country that if something bad happened to my community, they would not starve or be without fresh water.

If I seem negative in this message- I am not trying to be. I am just trying to document one reality of what is happening right now. I feel although today there was a lot of super NEGATIVE things in the news… Spain had an unreal day with a lot of violence, even Edmonton, Alberta had an apparent terrorist attack… and that’s when I stopped listening to the news.

I am now going to bed as it’s only some hours before my day starts again… but I want to change the tone of this… Puerto Rico is going to be okay- help is coming and they will be okay and the people will bounce back and they will work together to find solutions to rebuild their country and in the meantime, the weather will cooperate.
Mexico is also doing good- and with all the earth quakes and flooding that has happened to high density populations around the world, including US, India and Bangladesh- there will be more people working towards changing their vibrations to focus on the positive and begin thinking about our earth and climate change and solutions of what we can do now…. someone told me today that China just made a new law saying they will be done putting more coal power plants and will now focus on renewable energies… this is a very big positive.

I am happy, strong and wealthy and I am learning a lot about Ayurveda and will be giving lots of massages these next weeks and sharing the positive energy that I will take care to cultivate.

Tonight I will sleep sound and knowing that tomorrow will be a better day for our world and that more people are awakening to their inner potential and inner magic of being able to control their own destinies. Individually we will being doing self work to raise our vibrations. You will raise yours and I will raise mine. That’s all we can do… and collectively we will vibrate and be the change that we want to see in the world… but first we need to take the time to see the change… to manifest, what would this world look like if it was peaceful… how would people be… how would people in China be… what about Africa… what about Estevan? Would we have more farms and less machines and more sit down suppers- with less food served- but with enough to feed us all? I know what I will be working on tomorrow while observing… planning what this world could look like if we all awoken to our true nature of spirit and that we are all from the same source… and when we hurt our neighbor, we are hurting ourselves… and when we hurt out earth- we are hurting our mother and giver of life.

Things to remember:
Earthquakes are not bad nor good
Hurricanes are not bad nor good
The president of the United states is not bad or good…
They just are…

Wait, I can do better than this.

Mother Earth has been heard and will be calm for the rest of this season and the President of the United States, Donal Trump is an evolving man open to change, love and compassion to all American and global citizens.
