A Question for the Masses - *LOL*

 
Does anybody (other than me)
still use MSN Spaces?
 
Or has everyone graduated on to
Facebook, Twitter, My Space or a dot com?
 
Just wonderin'....

The Legend of Rainbow Bridge

  
 
 The Legend of Rainbow Bridge
 
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When a pet dies who has been especially close to a person here
on earth, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are beautiful meadows and grassy hills there for all our
special friends so they can run and play together.
There is always plenty of their favorite food to eat, plenty of
fresh spring water for them to drink, and every day is
filled with sunshine so our little friends are warm and
comfortable.
All the pets that had been ill or old are now restored to
health and youth.
Those that had been hurt or maimed are now whole
and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams
of days gone by.
The pets we loved are happy and content except for one
small thing.
Each one missed someone very special who was left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one
of them suddenly stops and looks off into the distant hills.
It is as if they heard a whistle or were given a signal of
some kind.
Their eyes are bright and intent.
Their body begins to quiver.
All at once they break away from the group, flying like a
deer over the grass, their little legs carrying them faster
and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special
friend finally meet, you hug and cling to them in joyous
reunion, never to be parted again.
Happy kisses rain upon your face.
Your hands once again caress the beloved head.
You look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet so
long gone from your life, but never gone from your heart.
Then with your beloved pet by your side, you will cross the
Rainbow Bridge together.
Your Sacred Circle is now complete again.

~ One of the great benefits of passing to the other side after death is that when you are there you can literally go anywhere you want, and that includes making visits to the Earth plane. And just as our loved ones who have passed away watch over us from time to time, so do our beloved pets. ~ Sylvia Browne

And by the way, I STILL cannot leave a comment anywhere on MSN Spaces. I STILL get the prompt, "We are unable to publish your comment at this time. Please try again later." And that has been going on for about a month and a half now. My music host site has been down and out of commission for about that long as well, but I finally got that back today. YAY! I want you to know that I've been lurking around the hood here in Space Live, but cannot leave comments/graffiti on your spaces for some unknown technical reason.

God Clouds

 

God Clouds

Two weekends ago I went to my hometown and visited my parents. My parents live in an independent living compound so when I go for a visit I stay in the guest room. However, the evenings visiting elderly parents are not all that exciting because the seniors go to bed very early and TV can get boring quickly for me.
 
Two Saturday evenings ago I was holed up in the guest room at said senior independent living center. It was around 11:15 or 11:30 pm and I found myself pacing the guestroom, feeling unsettled and nervous. I was contemplating the world situations and the many, various activities going on in the highest level of the governments. Not only that but I was focusing on death too trying to make sense of why a young woman in this day and age should die so young. I was wondering what in the world is the meaning of all this, trying to make some sense from it all. All of these things was weighing heavily on my mind and I was pacing the room like a high-strung tigeress locked in her cage. (Grrrrrrrrrr... snarl.)
 
In the back of my mind I recall thinking, "God, I wish you would give me some sort of a sign because I'm feeling doubtful about a lot of things and You too." And that is UNCHARACTERISTIC of me because I have absolute faith and love for God - but I had been getting beaten down a bit lately. I also felt almost a gnawing doubt about God's existence at all.
 
After about 15 minutes of this I couldn't take being inside anymore and had the overwhelming urge/need/desire to sneak outside and take a breath of fresh evening air. I thought maybe I'll see a sign. May I will see a UFO fly by or something. I just know that I was distressed internally and needed something.
 
So I sneaked outside... I sneaked like the army woman I once was; careful not to make a sound and wake someone up. I stealthily slipped outside.
 
There was a full moon this evening and it was hanging high in the eastern sky. There was some clouds in the sky too, floating around like clouds do. The air was crisp, cool, clean. As I was taking a deep breath in I heard a voice in my head direct me to "look up and gaze at the full moon for a bit."
 
So I gazed upon the full moon for a bit and I admired the man in the moon - internally wondering "where's my God-sign? Are you going to move the moon for me God?" I said this almost mockingly...
 
After a minute or two of this the same voice telepathically ordered me, "Now look up over your left shoulder - and directly above. Look up."
 
Of course I obeyed and looked up over my left shoulder.  And my body turned as I gazed up into the dark autumn sky. Do you know what I saw? I saw a perfectly formed -- as though drawn from white clouds -- and quite large -- a perfectly formed SMILEY FACE smiling down upon me. Surprised I am absolutely 100% serious about this. There it was - this perfectly formed smiley face looking right down on me. It stayed that way for maybe 30 seconds at the most. I stood there, quietly and watched as it moved on and dissipated. I watched as it became a normal cloud again and floated away over the full moon to the east.
 
Also, during those few seconds when I was gazing upon the heavenly formed smiley face I was also feeling a surge of energy, of enlightenment, of power, of adrenaline, and confidence take over. It was a laugh out loud moment actually.
 

It was a smiley cartoon face from God. It was a God Cloud.
It was like this above picture but only black background and white cloud outline. And I think I will paint a picture of what I saw that evening.

I had not been drinking or anything (I swear). I was absolutely in my right mind this evening.

This is my testament story of the evening of October 3, 2009.
 
Over the years I have come to the conclusion that God has quite a sense of humor. Really. Yes, really I have.
 
I think it was a reminder that things are indeed the way they are supposed to be according to God's plan. And also, "don't worry, be happy now".
 
I hope you had equally stellar weekends!

My New Ride: No -- My NEW, New Ride ~

 
My NEW New Car
 
 
So, I ended up buying this car rather than below car.
Car dealer raised the price terribly -- $4,889.00 to be exact on car #1.
I was not happy camper with that and I said, "no deal. Goodbye"
So I DID end up buying this car. Deal is completely done.
It is a Mercury Milan.
It is very similar to the Ford Fusion.

I feel much more comfortable in this car than the Ford Fusion.
 
 
 
 
So, trust me when I say I really needed a new car.
And this is what I bought today. It is a Ford Fusion.
It is BEAUTIFUL and oh soooo SWEET.
(It is a v6.)
 
 
 
Do you like it?
(Like you'd say, "no, that's ugly and it sucks.")
 
And this was paramount in my decision: Ford Motor Company DID NOT take government bail-out money. It is an American made car and they didn't take any of that money. That buys my respect: and in return I buy their car. The government has NO RIGHT to have their snoopy-poopy noses in the car industry. NONE! ZIP... ZERO... NADA.
