Berna
One day I came home in the afternoon and it turned out that Johnny had lost his voice due to the heavy pollen in the air. He could barely talk.
I said “Let’s have a glass of champagne together. That will soothe your throat.”
So, we did. Johnny was telling me all kinds of things. I said: have you noticed you have been talking like normal and you only have taken two sips of the champagne?”
We both joked and laughed about it.… Read more
Since many people are labeled with autism these days, we think readers might be curious about Spirit’s perspective on this subject.
Spirit
Autistic people are drawn inside. They close themselves off in a way. They want as little stimulation from the outside as possible.
All these busy energies, the confusion everywhere, the insincerity of people—they pick these up and they make their minds wild, so to speak.
They are so sensitive to these outside influences, because they are spirits with a higher vibration than the average person.… Read more
Recently, Berna and I were having one of our daily chats about spirituality.
She told me she was planning to visit a close friend of hers. I asked her about this friend’s neighborhood, as I remembered it from our recent visit—the red brick buildings with many big trees, large grassy expanses, and other details. Berna knew the area well.
Then she said she and I had never been there together. I was, to put it mildly, surprised! I asked her if my description of the neighborhood was accurate.… Read more
Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude. ~ Denis Waitley
Two days ago, on November 25, 2021, the United States celebrated its annual holiday of Thanksgiving.
The message of gratitude often gets confused, misused, and even lost. So it’s helpful to remind ourselves, now and then, of how much we have to be truly grateful for.
Here are some of Spirit’s thoughts about gratitude.… Read more
I know some of you are familiar with the work of Dr. Hew Len in the Hawaiian ritual of Ho’oponopono.… Read more
I grew up in rural New York State. My favorite pastime was wandering through the woods and hills, even when most kids my age were dating, going to parties, playing sports, etc.… Read more
This post is the third in our ongoing question-and-answer series.
I am enjoying the questions and answers. I recently read about a Hawaiian therapist. It is incredibly intriguing to me.
He states that we are all responsible for everything that we see in our world. By taking full personal responsibility and then healing the wounded places within ourselves, we can literally heal ourselves and the world.… Read more

Lately I’ve had a “dry spell” in my channelling work, and have taken a bit of time away from it. But we’ll be back to what passes for normal next week.
Unless you’re living in a cave somewhere, you’ve probably noticed all the hostility and negativity around the United States presidential election. It’s been a traumatic time for many, a jubilant time for others, depending on which of the two candidates they were rooting for.… Read more
Portrait of a LionYou’ve probably heard the news of protests circling the planet over the recent death of the legendary, beloved Cecil the Lion in Zimbabwe.
Many people, animal lovers or not, are distressed, sad, and angry. Maybe you’re one of them.
As you might expect in such situations, people’s reactions vary widely.… Read more
Be SilentLast week started out well. But by the end of the week, I was floundering around, confused and distressed by a challenge I’d never faced before.
One morning, upon awakening, I noticed I could not hear out of my left ear.… Read more

In our last post, Signs from Spirit, we talked about feathers and how Spirit often uses them to send us messages. There are many ways Spirit can communicate with us. Some are obvious, others more subtle.
Our dear friend Diotima Markis sent me an email after we published that last post. Diotima is a wonderfully spiritual lady, and a spiritual teacher as well.… Read more
Provokingly slowly the tide goes out. I am watching the slow passage of the large cargo vessels, and the diligent sailing to and fro of the pilot boats. It’s fascinating, and more than that. I’m really having a great time.
Seated on a bench on the promenade, I look out over the wide funnel-shaped estuary and for a long time I enjoy at ease the light, the air, and the water. It’s really a fantastic spectacle. The changing of many colors: green and blue, gray and white.… Read more
God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them ~ Genesis 1:27
Angel Light
In our last blog post, How Do You Express the Light of God?, we talked about an elderly lady who, despite her age and infirmity, nonetheless radiated a powerful, loving energy all about her.
This week we’re talking about another person who radiated that same loving energy all his life.

You all chose the details of this and your other lifetimes.… Read more
I’ve grown certain that the root of all fear is that we’ve been forced to deny who we are. ~ Frances Moore Lappe
I firmly believe, as the above quotation says, the root of our fear is always denying our true selves.
We are, after all, God in human form, albeit temporarily. Fear does not exist for God. Fear is only an illusion we’ve created because we have forgotten our divine heritage, our true identity.
Spirit
Fear is one of the biggest bugaboos you humans have created for yourselves.… Read more
The questions in the title of this post have always been asked by humanity. Spirituality and religion say yes to most of these questions, whereas science mostly denies it. For a long time matter was all that was real to science, although there are scientists who somehow manage to combine religion and science.
Science and spirituality are like mind and soul, like male and female, two opposites that have got out of balance since we ate from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.… Read more
Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself. ~ Richard Bach
As we all know, being true to ourselves can be a daunting challenge in our modern world. There are so many forces and influences trying to persuade us to rely on them instead of our own inner resources and knowing. And yet the only reliable resources and true knowing come only from within each of us.
As my spirit guides often say, our inner guidance is always our highest and best authority.… Read more

The wisdom of your soul is a pearl beyond any price. Every single learning and growth that you have experienced in every lifetime and between every lifetime has contributed to the brilliance, to the luminescence and beauty of the energy of your soul. It is hard if not impossible for human beings to even imagine a fraction of the brilliance of their soul and of who they truly are. And that has been part of the journey for humanity.… Read more
Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right. ~ Oprah Winfrey
New Year Celebration in Rome
Copyright © 2012 by Zabbo
It’s that time of year when many folks make new year resolutions, often to abandon them only days or weeks later.
I no longer make new year resolutions. I prefer to call them intentions. When we create an intention the universe infuses it with powerful energy. That enables us to effortlessly flow toward fulfillment of the intention — as opposed to struggling to stick to a resolution.… Read more
Many folks today, in this age of endless digital distractions, have forgotten how to be silent and at peace.
Spirit
Have you ever listened to the silence? What have you heard? We’d like you to take a moment, right now before you read any further, and listen to the silence. Can you hear the sounds of silence?… Read more
Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it. ~ Helen Keller, 1880-1968

A couple days ago I read an interesting article about the Ebola crisis in Africa. The author was questioning how such suffering could exist if God is all-powerful.
Good question.
Spirit
The “bottom line” here is God is NOT all-powerful. Does that shock you? It’s true.
God does not will humans to suffer, either deliberately or by neglect.… Read more
To the soul, there is hardly anything more healing than friendship. ~ Thomas Moore, 1779-1852

Our recent post, The Prayer of God, received some really nice comments from you, our dear readers. One of you asked if we had any more articles by the anonymous writer. Since then I’ve found several more.
We’re publishing one of those today. It’s similar in tone to The Prayer of God. I hope you’ll like it.

Trust your angels to catch your wish and bring it to you in a delightfully surprising way. ~ Doreen Virtue

Over the years many of our readers have asked about angels. I personally have been fascinated by the subject ever since I was a little boy. I still remember my mother reading angel stories to us at bedtime.
Today we’re featuring an article by my dear friend, Mary Ellen, aka “Angel Scribe.” She’s a talented writer and widely published in several different areas, including angels.… Read more
Do not ask Spirit to heal the body. Ask rather that Spirit teach you the right perception of the body. ~ A Course in Miracles
Two days ago I was out for a walk in the beautiful fall weather we’ve been having. Suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, a snarling dog hurled himself at me, taking a chunk out of my leg. As I defended myself, he bit me on the wrist. Finally I managed to chase him off. With my leg and wrist bleeding, I painfully limped back home.… Read more
Dying is a spiritual and psychological necessity, for after a while the exuberant, ever-renewed energies of the spirit can no longer be translated into flesh….The self outgrows the flesh. ~ Seth, channeled by Jane Roberts
Life After Death

Our title is taken from a discussion on death in the movie, Tuning In. A few years ago I would have thought those words were absolute nonsense. But not any longer.
