It's Just Too "Woo Woo"

The day we walked was gloomy...matching our moods.  Cold and rainy.  We had hidden so much from each other.  Obviously, our communication sucked.  We danced around each other, never going through the front door.  We both laid it all out there at Lake Elkhorn.

He was in love...allegedly with me and someone else.  There had been someone for several months.  He wanted us all to be friends.  I was not open to that.  He needed more freedom to experience the personal growth that came with new friendships and relationships.

I actually felt this great sense of relief.  Finally, I knew.  So, with that out of the way, we just talked for hours in the rain.  He said I never shared with him about what I was doing or studying, so I opened up to him about my metaphysical journey that started with my trip to Omega in upstate New York.  I told him about the Soul Connection workshop, Hay House radio, the Law of Attraction stuff.

It's just too "woo woo" for most people and I had certainly pigeon-holed him in that category.  But, he surprised me.  He listened actively.

We both left sad...a post-mortem feeling really.  So much we could've shared, so much we could've been.  He said he still loved me.  I loved him.  Incompletely.  Unfulfilled.

I pushed my reset button.  I started writing this blog as Movin' On.  I needed to get strong, be who I really am, get into other relationships...I needed therapy and I needed to give myself positive and loving messages.  I felt this tremendous feeling of freedom.

I skewered him on more than one occasion...but he was steadfast in his devotion.  We still played bridge on Thursdays and we still traveled to tournaments.

One Sunday, I asked him if he wanted to go to the Center for Spiritual Enlightenment with me before we played bridge.  I really didn't expect him to go but he did.  At the end of the service, when the mediums were giving messages to people in the congregation, Edith came to me.

"There's a motherly spirit with you.  She says her name is Edith.  Do you know her?"  I shake my head "no."  Shocked, John nervously whispers, "That's my mother!"


I nod my head "yes."  And her message is 'people will try to stand in your way, but you are on the right path.'  I am stunned and John looks like he's been hit by a ton of bricks.  I'm not sure he really believed what had just happened, but a week later I was in Cassadaga getting a two hour reading and Edith was with me the entire time.

"There is an older lady here; there's a kindness with her.  She never met a stranger.  She has a lot of energy.  She is very family oriented and there are many extended family members.  She's a great integrater of people, especially for holiday gatherings.  There's a motherly/grandmotherly vibration with her.  She's showing me the name Anna."

"She is very pleased you are reaching out so far, you are standing on your tiptoes.  It won't be long before you can intuit; you do it very well.  You are very sensitive, you have the gift.  Look for more of that to happen.  You are blooming.   She is very happy for you."

"This older lady feels like you are a daughter to her.  She's looking forward to having you bring her through as you develop your medium skills."

I ask her about John's path.  "I like your path better.  He is stubborn.  He doesn't listen anyway."  She wants me to know she's been with me for some time.  You are on a higher path and she's saying she wants to take it with you.  She didn't get to do it when she was on earth but she wanted to.

I share all this with John.  I ask who Anna was.  "She was a neighbor.  She was lovely.  She died young of brain cancer."  He affirmed his mom always said he never listened.  "Everybody's out of step but John," was the way she put it.

Yep, it's just all too "woo woo".... but he's a believer now!
