Sacred
Re-entry
�
2004
Julie Jordan Scott
It felt like longer than a month yet it seemed like just yesterday,
too.
Sam and I approached the intersection with sweaty palm against
sweaty palm, our connected hands signaling our connected hearts as
we crossed the busy street. I had crossed in this exact same place
many times with Sandy. I smiled at my three-year-old son who stared
at the open space in front of him. His expression perfectly matched
the wag that used to come to Sandy's tail as he anticipated reaching
the park on the other side.
We wove our way to the off-the-paved-path path and began our journey.
The closest word I can come to is "re-entry."
I hadn't been brave enough
to come up here until this moment. I didn't want to come here alone, I wanted
to share this sacred moment with someone else. Someone human. Someone who
loves me. I realize in retrospect I longed for someone who would wordlessly
understand the powerful presence in these moments back in the very space
Sandy and I would explore every day.
Contentment washed over me as I appreciated
my precious little boy who was busily kicking everything on the path in front
of us, from the bark from the nearby-questionable-landscaping to various
rocks and miniature tumbleweeds. We walked slowly because of his three- year-old
stature.
We turned to a particularly hilly section of the path and I was back in mid-Spring,
jogging along the path with Sandy ahead of me as I huffed and puffed and
sang, "I can run and I can sing, I can do most
anything!"
In another flash I remembered it was mid August, there was no Sandy
running ahead of me with his blonde fur flashing. I was walking slowly as I held
my "other" son's hand.
We got to the top of the ridge and Sam spotted the Kern
River,
weaving its way west below us. "Water!" he cried out as if he was the first to
ever make the discovery.
"Yes," I smiled as I responded. "That's the Kern River, Sam."
Sam replied to
me by jumping up and down in pure excitement.
I pointed towards a bench and said, "Want to sit down for a while on
the bench?"
I wanted to simply be quiet for a while, remembering and honoring Sandy, knowing
this was a significant moment in my first visit back in our favorite walking
spot.
Sam and I sat on the bench looking out across the bluffs. We watched the
sun move lower in the sky. He seemed to sense my need for quiet as he held my
hand and sat as close as he possibly could without climbing onto my lap. We didn't
have to speak.
We simply held one another in presence.
Peace appeared in our breath as we sat.
Sam called out to some walkers. "Hi! Hi!" A woman with grey fluffy hair wearing
red exercise pants waved back to Sam. "Hello to you,
too!"
It was time to make our way home. We took the paved path so that Sam could
interact with more people. His warmth surprised people along the way.
We met
a recently rescued Siberian Husky named Denali who accepted Sam's attention
graciously.
We jumped up and down in the sprinkler induced puddles. Sam found that especially
funny.
I turned to look back at the park as we made our way down our street.
My smile was quiet and serene.
"Thank you." I said to no one and everyone.
"Your welcome" said Sam, on behalf of everyone and no one.

Want
Momentum for Your Manifesting?
2004 by Susan James/Vast Five. All rights reserved
We cannot be half-way about a thing and get results.
The difference between repeating a statement and one of instantaneous
manifestation is that by repetition we gain conviction in the
feeling and momentum. Those of us who have primarily been operating
in the outer world are now starting to apply the mechanics of
manifesting and will have to gain this momentum. While those
who have instantaneous results have already the feeling and momentum
and only need to make statements when the action is required.
We must be sure in the feelings that our higher nature is the
doer, for results.
People often ask why the need to repeat statements
or affirmations? Well, just think about it for a moment. How
many times do we suppose we must have repeated negative and un-aligned
words; statements and acts to produce the conditions from which
we now seek relief and freedom. Now we have to repeat day after
day to build a momentum that will eventually overwhelm and transmute
the wrong conditions. Momentum is a tremendous thing, and no
respecter of right or wrong.
This is about building bridges to
what we desire. We simply have to do it. And it is simple. It
is the beginning stage of *action* from an inspiration. Writing
and saying things outloud are fast bridge builders. It's what
solidifies our momentum and our manifesting.
How many times do we need to repeat a statement and why? 3X is
to penetrate the mental, emotional, and physical planes, one for
each.
When we want to anchor or fix firmly something in our consciousness
it helps with our momentum for retention in consciousness/knowing,
by writing it down. Writing makes an etheric record, (especially
when ink is used); by the effort or expenditure of the energy it
takes, we release an essence.
This essence makes a mold on the
invisible space in front of our face. This also means: Do not write
what you do not want to record or to be fulfilled. (THIS INCLUDES
EMAIL.) Be very careful of what you make a written record of unless
you want it fulfilled.
