This morning I was awakened and the song "On the Road Again" was playing in my head. I could see and feel Johnny Cash close by. Minutes later I sat down at the computer and searched for the song lyrics to include in a post to a friends blog - http://antwatching.blogspot.com/.
E G#7
On the road again, just can't wait to get on the road again
F#m
The life I love is makin' music with my friends
A B7 E
And I can't wait to get on the road again
E G#7
On the road again, goin' places that I've never been
F#m
Seein' things that I may never see again,
A B7 E
And I can't wait to get on the road again.
I had been thinking of Johnny all morning after that, and later in the afternoon when I got home, I turned on the computer again and found his face staring back at me from the homepage of AOL. They had changed their screen while I was gone. I was really curious what the message was so had to go check it out.
This was the headlines......
50 Most Awesomely Dead Rock Stars
For many musicians, death is not a final reckoning - it's the best career move they ever made. So which immortal souls are raising the most hell in 2006? From Joey Ramone to Notorious B.I.G. to Johnny Cash, the dearly departed are just dying to get on Blender's first annual corpsetastic list, brought to life by AOL Music. Commune with your favorite music martyrs by blasting their drop-dead jams and O.D.ing on the choicest tidbits of their legacy. Not even Tupac's coroner had this much info to work with.
Here's to you Johnny.....I just did a plug so keep those tunes coming in. I must have turned the dial of my frequency and found the right station this morning - sometimes that happens. :-)
(I'm looking at the words "For many musicians - death is not a final reckoning - it's the best career move they ever make. The universe is music, we are notes and transition just means we get to play and compose more tunes.)
When I typed the blurb to myself and sent it in email back to myself as sometimes I do, I noticed I sent it at 1:11 and it was #111 in my email box. For those who notice triple numbers - they often are little codes to pay attention to.
One description of 111 is:
111: Energy flow * Enhancing whatever level you are presently in *
I happened to notice this on Patrick Fitzgerald's blog one day
Born Yesterday..?
In my line of work you learn how to read between the lines

Reflections
I just realized that I haven't been here for a couple of weeks. It's a lot more fun to pop into my friends blogs and check up on their adventures. I agreed to teach another Reiki class and that normally keeps me busy, so for the past few weeks the days were filled with updating material, redoing manuals, and generally cleaning out old files. It was a fun class, and when I do this, it never seems like work - so this must be my purpose and passion.
I was asked to visit a friend's mother today who is close to passing. It was about 8 years ago when this friend's mother came in for a Reiki session. She was delightful and oh so full of spirit. Her walk on this earth plane one could tell was of total connection to all of nature and the cosmos. She was an avid stone and rock collector and part of the session we ended up sitting on the floor and we talked about stones (she was 80 at the time). I then gave her a green stone heart shaped pendant to wear. Her daughter told me today that she always wore it, and I saw it hanging from the lampshade that was next to her bed. Seeing this again today brought a few tears to the surface as it was next to her grandchildren's picture - so I figured it must have meant something very meaningful to her.
Her energy was very clear and her crown chakra wide open. I believe her transition will go very smoothly. The house was filled with incredibly light energy - not dark heavy dense energy as the family is very well prepared and is comfortable with the death experience.
There were a few funny moments when the hospice nurse arrived with a foam pad to lay over the existing mattress. It was almost comical as we tried to move Katherine, and all I could think of was she was probably hoping to exit soon, if she had to undergo one more roller coaster move like it took to change the pads and sheets. She came awake for a few seconds while I was there, grasped tightly my hand, and tried to speak. I kissed her on the forhead and told her I would see her in my dreams. This was a day I will never forget, and I feel so blessed to have had the experience of being with her.
I sat and talked then to her 91 year old husband who is still very alert as he told me many stories and jokes. The stories, the history, all the collectables I observed in this house, was filled with so much love.
In class during the attunement process yesterday, one of my students asked if I also put my hands on her shoulders and head while I was attuning the student next to her -I said no, but I felt your brother who had passed years ago was close by.
Life continues to unfold....one petal at a time.
