A dear friend of mine were discussing a topic yesterday that piqued my interest enough to write an article on it. We were discussing those that do not believe in spiritual lightworkers. Those that do not like the work that we do, so therefore create blogs and go on Ripoffreport and state bold face lies attempting to ruin the persons reputation. Surprisingly, this has happened to many in this line of work.
You either have the ones that just simply do not believe, or ones that you have serviced and did not tell them exactly what they wanted to hear. This work in comparison to a doctor, lawyer, teacher, police officer etc… you don’t always hear what you want to hear but you do hear what you need to.
During the conversation with my beloved friend, I realized how much these people are in need of love and forgiveness. “Forgive them for they do not know what they do.” Instead of placing energy into the negativity of another person’s inability to understand or their inability to mind their own, place out positive thoughts of healing towards them. For anyone that chooses to take out time to lash out or try to place a negative outlook on you, are the ones that need the help the most. Need kindness and love the most. Need prayer the most. It saddens me that others are out there that dismiss what spiritual workers do. But it is the world we live in and unfortunately we shall all have our critics. Every line of work has its critics.
So when searching for a spiritual advisor and you happen to see a negative, look at all the good that is there too. Many times we look more on the negative than the positive and it’s a part of being human.
During my years of conducting my work online, I have come across a few that have been harsh and critical. The majority though outweighs this small percentage. For example, when you go to a doctor and he tells you let’s say you need to lose weight due to your blood pressure is up or your cholesterol is high. Most of the time, we just hear it as “criticism” of being overweight and not the consequences. Doesn’t mean you can walk out of the doctors office and not pay. Hmm… maybe that is why you pay prior to your visit? LOL. Just kidding. But you certainly do not say I want a refund. If you do not like the opinion, you seek a second opinion. Correct?
In the field of spiritual work, you may not always hear what you want and you may not always agree. Communicate this with the advisor and allow them to work with you to help you. No one is perfect and we all do our best to help another. When you come across the cruelty of others by their posting, keep looking and you will see the good outweighs the bad. Many have said “wow your feedback is amazing!” My answer to this is because I work with my clients. If a message is not understood, or they are looking for their “own” answer to validate their feelings, I spend extra time counseling them to get to the “root” of their thinking of why they want this relationship so badly or why certain things are happening in their lives. Sometimes our way of thinking clouds our judgments and you need that person “outside the box” to assist you in seeing why situations are happening or why relationships are not working. More times than not, my clients walk away with a better sense of direction once they realize what those “key” or “root” issues are. Then of course there are some that choose to stay on the path they are on. That’s okay too! It’s all in the timing and the lessons you are meant to learn. As Marianne Williamson says… “the lessons will keep repeating themselves until they are finally learned.”
So keep your mind open, look for the positive and don’t be swayed by others who are simply hurting or do not understand. Pray for them.
As I mentioned in my last blog entry in the comment section I would update on the “Invite” I extended to the owner of the FaceBook page on Murt. The only reason I am even writing about this is due to Zan Smith stating outright lies about me and creating a blog in which she copies and pastes my web site and writes false information.
So to date, and it has been 2 days now that the invite was sent, none of the people involved with stating such lies has called me. Let me say again since Yvonne cannot comprehend obviously what “Toll Free” means, it is just that a free call.
Due to the request of calling me has not happened yet nor has the blog been taken down I am further asking if Zan Smith can call me with proof about her allegations and to help me understand why she would write such awful things about the loss of my grandchild and allegedly make statements that I made money off of my Grandson’s death. As sick as that sounds I am putting it out there for that is what was stated and written.
It is now very apparent to me that reason that Zan or Michelle has not called me is due to all they were doing is starting drama and pulling in anyone they could to their online lives. If this is not the case, well where’s the call? Why not clear this up once and for all?
Below are just some screen captures taken from this FaceBook page I would like answered and shown proof of…
I am putting out this invite to Zan Smith (Twitter Name) since I do not know your real name. Since you have made it a point to bring me into your focus of attention on a FaceBook page with regard to someone else and you are stating I am on Twitter posing as someone else, this is an invite to clear some things up. Oh and as of today, I created my Twitter account www.twitter.com/AnnieRush and have requested a “follow” from you.
I know I stated in the previous blog entry that I would not be making anymore references to this topic. But after a good nights sleep, and reviewing your comments I thought it would be good for you and I to talk over the phone.
Just so you have the heads up, I will be recording the call and of course you may as well. I give you my permission. I am just letting you know that when you call me, you will be recorded. That’s the law informing the other person on the call that they are being recorded. And so you know that any information that you have stated previously on this FaceBook account you put up on Murt, yet now have involved me for no apparent reason, if anything of false nature is presented such as what you have stated like illegal access to a LexisNexis account you accused me amongst other things, it will be sent to the law firm that was mentioned on the FaceBook page.
I will be available after 5 pm CST today. So when it’s convenient for you today, or tomorrow, let’s chat. I refuse to reply to your messages on a FaceBook page. I do not have time for games. You want to know the truth, want answers, call me.
888-777-4918
Oh yes and feel free to comment here Zan to let me know if you are calling or when.
Yesterday, when I received a phone call stating I was being mentioned on a FaceBook Page that someone created about Murt, I went there. I read a little and was a tad confused why I was being brought into this charade since I have not been a part of this FaceBook ever, nor this group for a couple of months.
Yes, before my grandson passed – well actually upon the birth of my grandson I stepped away from all the blog drama. It was getting out of hand and things were being said that were not true and hurtful to many, mostly Tracy about his son. Everyone was being blamed for saying things and accusations flying everywhere.
Now, I see once again “this group” of people are dragging me back in. This is a one time post and the comment function will be disabled. This is not a blog for a discussion but to clarify that “this group” has some facts wrong.
Upon going to the FaceBook page that was created to hurt, defame, shame, or whatever to Murt, I see my name brought up. Why? No clue. The friend that called me on the phone brought it to my attention they think I am this twitter person namely, BillIronmonger. Wrong. I do not utilize Twitter. Yes I have had twitter accounts in the past. I do not use the network now.
I wanted to take this time out to thank all of you that had sent emails and cards after the loss of my Grandson. The outpouring of love was amazing and I am so blessed to have people like you in my life.
Since Bradley’s passing, it has been extremely difficult on our family as you can imagine. The emotional toll it takes on you, is something I would not wish upon anyone. When we lose a parent or grandparent that is hard enough. But when you lose a child, it’s the most horrendous pain one can go through. As you all know I was extremely close to my Grandchild and I miss him so dearly.
My daughter and fiancee’ are doing as best as can be expected. They are getting into grief counseling and trying to pick up the pieces of their broken hearts. Each day is difficult for them, but they are gaining strength from family and friends. Thankfully, their faith in God has returned. Both are looking into becoming members of the S.I.D.S foundations and wanting to help find the cause or cure for S.I.D.S. They are also looking ahead to having another baby when they are emotionally, mentally and spiritually stable. Nothing will bring their Bradley back, but after my daughter became a Mother she said she never thought she could love that deeply. She wants to be a Mama again. So these are all good signs! They too, thank you for your kindness that you extended to them. Read more »
My Grandson, Bradley was born into this world on April 27, 2010 at 1:22 am. He was called home to be with God on Memorial Day May 31, 2010. He was 33 days old.
The picture to the left was taken just 10 hours before his passing and as you can see he was a healthy, happy, loved baby. And oh how we love him so. This was my daughter’s first child and she did not think she could ever have a baby due to she had female problems, but a miracle happened and God blessed them with this bundle of joy, even though for a short time.
I have received many emails and calls and I thank you. Last week was the hardest time of our lives. This is not what life is suppose to be. We are not “suppose” to outlive our grandchildren, nor should a parent outlive their child. But we don’t have control, only God does. Were we all mad at God? You bet. Not only was I pissed that he took a precious life that was everything to this family. But to watch my daughter go through that pain and I as her Mother, could not take it away, could not put a band-aid on it nor say “I know what you are going through” let’s just say helplessness is an under statement.
For those of you that wanted to know what happened is the reason for this blog. For the remembrance of my Grandbaby.
Angie and Joey were fantastic parents! I have never and no I am not being bias, have I seen two devoted, loving, caring parents. Bradley changed their lives. Bradley’s birth was complicated. My daughter after hours of labor had to have an emergency C-section. The doctors found the umbilical cord wrapped around his little neck TWICE and out came this beautiful healthy child born on a glorious full moon. As I sat at the hospital waiting, praying and pacing the floors by the surgery doors, when the doors swung open and out came the new daddy with a smile so big it lit up the skies. There pushing the baby cart with my grandson, I ran to his side. There I saw the most beautiful being I could have imagined! Baby was fine, Mama was fine and God answered our prayers! Our “BMW” was perfect!
Everyday I went to my daughters home to help her and Joey. I would hold that little one and couldn’t put him down. Oh what joy a baby brings. I am very close to my family and yes I was involved 110%. The doctor appointments I attended, all was perfect with Bradley. My daughter was healing beautifully. I watched this young woman change before my eyes and it was an amazing sight to see. The love she had for her son was indescribable. And the Dad? No one could have asked for a more devoted caring man to be the Father of your Grandchild. See between Angie thinking she could never have a child when Bradley came along, it was their new found life. They poured every ounce of love into this child. He was their number one and only.
So everyday I was there to help them, bring them food, and any excuse to see my little grandbaby. :) And every night my daughter held the phone to my Grandson’s ear so I could tell him Gramma loves him and nighty night. The last week prior to his passing Angie would tell me he would lean into the phone everytime I spoke to him like he really was listening. Like “oh that’s gramma” but had a look on his face like where is she though! LOL
Bradley smiled from day one. As you see in the picture above, it was a genuine smile. A happy child. Its rare to see a child only a little over 4 weeks old smile like that! But that shows how loved he was. And still is…
Bradley had two doctor appointments that month. One week after his birth and at 3 weeks old. I was present at both. Doc said baby is perfect. This photo was taken as I was holding him at his 3 week check up.
BMW
Throughout the month I took hundreds of photos and my daughter would be like Mom we have a zillion pictures! I told her you have to catch every moment. Little did I know…
At 7:58 am on Monday May 31, 2010 the phone rang. It was the police. My daughter in her hysteriria asked them to call me to tell me what was happening. I was told they would be transporting Bradley in a few minutes to the hospital. I yelled what happened, what happened and the officer said the baby is non responsive.
That morning Joey woke to feed the baby at 6:00 am. They had a schedule and that’s when Joey would heat up the premade bottle in the fridge and have alone time with his son. He laid Bradley down about 6:45 am. My daughter awoke about 7:50 am and went to move the bassinet out of their bedroom to let Daddy sleep. Normally when she wheeled the bassinet Bradley would move. She instinctively knew something was wrong right then. She picked him up and Bradley was limp. She screamed as she ran out to the living room with Bradley and Joey jumped up and followed. She was dialing 911 and Joey was performing CPR and the cops were there in 2 minutes. Paramedics arrived and took over. That’s when I received the call. Was told go straight to the hospital.
I was crying and screaming NO GOD NO GOD PLEASE!! Take my life not his!!! Once at the hospital we were all placed in a private waiting room. Both sides of the family were all there. My daughter in shock and my future son in law as well. Crying and praying we sat and waited. The chapel arrived and sat with us. I knew for sure then. The parents were hanging on to a thread of hope the hospital will save Bradley. Once the doctor arrived in the room and announced “we did all we could, we are so very sorry” my daughter collapsed in my arms and Joey ran out of the hospital sobbing and every emotion possible. It was not real I kept saying to myself, it’s a mistake it has to be!! The staff said as soon as we clean Bradley up we can go in there to see him.
Once we arrived in the room and saw this beautiful child bundled up as though he was just sleeping. So at peace. The devastation was horrific. Wailing and crying saying NO NO NO!! The whole emergency room staff was in tears. We were there for hours, counselors arrived and talked to the entire family to help.
Before Bradley was transported to another medical facility, we took him with the Pastor down to the Chapel. Bradley had not yet been baptized. Angie and Joey held their precious child and he was blessed and prayed over. Though it was beautiful it was heartbreaking. It would be a final good bye before the funeral. We kissed him and wept.
Hundreds of people came to say their good bye to Bradley at the wake and funeral. Amazing the love that came forward to help support Angie and Joey in their time of the most horrific grief they will ever experience.
Each day that passes, acceptance is entering our hearts that Bradley is up in Heaven playing with the Angels.
Preliminary reports are leaning towards SIDS – Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. It baffles me that to this day the medical profession cannot figure out why this happens. They have come up with statistical reasons and what NOT to do and these parents did all the right things. It just hits with no reasons.
Bradley Michael will always be with me. I will never let him go. The pain at times is hard but I have to believe for all things there is a reason. Maybe he was just too perfect for this world, I don’t know. He was an angel here and now is an angel above.
The outfit I got him to come home with was too big for him at his birth. Little did I realize it would be the outfit he would wear when he was laid to rest.
I wrote this 2 nights ago and I would like to share it here. This is a tiny poem to my GrandBaby I love so dearly and will miss forever…
The light of my life, the love of my heart, you were my ray of sun
I held you, I rocked you, remember the song I sung?
The smell of your skin and your beautiful precious face,
Was filled with love, filled with life with such an endearing grace.
Your eyes filled my heart with a love I will never forget,
The day God called you home, my heart and soul just wept.
Our time together, the kisses, the hugs, your little smiles you gave,
Are locked now deep within my heart and forever will be saved.
I miss you so so dearly and do not understand why you had to go,
No one knows the answer, only God is the one that knows.
Right now you are playing with angels and looking down from above,
My precious Grandbaby that I will always love.
Go walk the streets of gold now and sit on God’s knee,
Forever you will be in my heart my beautiful Bradley.
Love,
Grandma Annie
If you would like to visit the site that was created for Bradley and if you can assist in helping these parents in their time of need would be appreciated. All was put in for the burial of their son and they need all the help they can. If you cannot give monetarily, please say a prayer for them to give them strength and hope to keep moving forward. Thank you and God Bless you all. Remember, hug and tell your loved ones how much you love them. You never know what tomorrow may bring…
Sorry I have not been around to continue on the series I began, but had much more important things going on! My daughter went into labor on April 26, 2010, early morning. She and her fiancee asked me to be apart of the birthing team with them, so I was all ready to go and you can imagine how thrilled I was when I got the call she was in labor! So we spent all morning at home till the contractions were 5 minutes apart and then Doc said okay time to head to the hospital.
My daughter and baby were doing fine until they started the inducing medication due to she was not dilating as she should have. The baby began to go into distress so they turned off the meds. Baby returned to normal. But every time they turned on the meds the baby’s heartbeat would drop and get erratic. So Doctor said leave her off of them for a couple of hours. By this time, my daughter was naturally having strong contractions. And without the inducing meds… baby went into distress. That’s when they called in the hospital team to do an emergency C section.
Thank God she did not have this child vaginally… for he would not have made it. Once they cut her open they found the baby had the umbilical cord wrapped around his little neck twice! There is always a reason for everything!!
My grandson was born at 1:22 AM on April 27, 2010 with a beautiful full moon! He’s beautiful and healthy as can be and my daughter is doing wonderfully too! I could not be more blessed. Oh and the new Dad is in his glory! I am so proud and blessed to have this man in my daughters life. He is so good to her and I can already see he is a super Daddy!
I would post pics publicly, but with all that is going on I choose not to. This gift from God is just that and I do not want him shared with the haters. Those that I choose to show the photos I have.
Okay onto another subject…
The other day I did ban a few IP’s and may have banned some that were not meant to. My apologies. I am unbanning all right now.
As far as the forum admission… Until I am settled and grounded again, I will not be taking in anymore new members. There are many going around impersonating others and I do not have the time right now to figure out who is who. So also, please be patient and beginning next week some time I will be emailing those of you that are asking.
A possible new lead in the disappearance of 5 year old Haleigh Cummings of Satsuma Florida. Haleigh was reported missing on February 10, 2009 where she lived with her father Ronald Cummings.
A new search began yesterday as officers, divers and police dogs from several Northeast Florida agencies combed an area off County Road 309, including the river and woods on either bank. Dozens of searchers, divers and several boats are being used, including some equipped with sophisticated underwater sonar.
The location is around Shell Harbour Road, close to where Misty Croslin’s parents lived on Magnolia Drive before HaLeigh disappeared. The long search down the St. John’s River carried on by the investigators came to an end at about 8 p.m. last night with no trace of the missing girl being retrieved. A box was recovered but no mention if the box has any significance or connection to Haleigh. Police and search teams have resumed the search this morning.
Investigators are not revealing where the tip came from.
WINTER SPRINGS – Winter Springs police have confirmed that missing 11-year-old Nadia Bloom has been found alive. A searcher from her church found her Tuesday morning.
James King said he found her by the shore line of Lake Jesup.
FOX 35 spoke to Metro Church Minster Randy Green. He said she was covered in mosquito bites but otherwise OK.
Nadia was reported missing Friday evening.
Investigators believe Nadia may have been inspired by a book about an adventurous girl who decides to go camping in her backyard. Authorities say she disappeared the same day her sister and father left for a trip to the Everglades with a Brownie troop, and that she was carrying a book called “Lanie” about a young girl who loves the outdoors.
There cannot be peace in the world until we have it in our own hearts and minds, our own families and neighborhoods.
Often we look at the outside world and find it in a state of seeming chaos or disorder. We feel compelled to transform the situation from one of turmoil into one of peace, yet we are often disappointed in our best attempts to do so. One reason for this is that we cannot bring to the world what we do not have to offer. Peace starts in our own minds and hearts, not outside of ourselves, and until its roots are firmly entrenched in our own selves, we cannot manifest it externally. Once we have found it within, we can share it with our family, our community, and the whole wide world. Some of us may already be doing just that, but for most of us, the first step is looking within and honestly evaluating the state of our own relationship to peacefulness.
Interestingly, people who manifest peace internally are not different from us; they have chattering thoughts and troubled emotions like we all do. The difference is that they do not lend their energy to them, so those thoughts and feelings can simply rise and fall like the waves of the ocean without disturbing the deeper waters of peacefulness within. We all have this ability to choose how we distribute our energy, and practice enables us to grow increasingly more serene as we choose the vibration of peace over the vibration of conflict. We begin to see our thoughts and feelings as tiny objects on the surface of our being that pose no threat to the deep interior stillness that is the source of peacefulness.
When we find that we are able to locate ourselves more and more in the deeper waters and less on the tumultuous surface of our being, we have discovered a lasting relationship with peace that will enable us to inspire peace beyond ourselves. Until then, we help the world most by practicing the art of choosing peace within.
