Greetings from the
Editor:
China
When my 82 year old mother and her significant other asked if
my husband and I would like to visit China with them, I
immediately said yes. I feel so blessed that my mother is my
friend and that she would invite us to go along on this
exciting trip. She has been such an inspiration to me over the
years showing me positive ways to enjoy life, live a healthy
life-style, use her talents (she is an artist), and especially
how one can age gracefully, living an enriched life in ones
later years. I feel happy seeing her enjoy this time of her
life.
The four of us are visiting China, for two weeks, at the end
of this month. I appreciate having the opportunity to
experience this ancient culture, visiting historical sights,
such as the Great Wall of China, Tiananmen Square, The Terra
Cotta Army, and the city of Lhasa in Tibet.

When Suzanne suggested I might submit a
part of my story of being born with Cerebral Palsy to her
newsletter, the most challenging thing for me was where to
start. There are almost as many significant aspects of
disability and perceptions of disability as there are people,
and their families, who are challenged with them. So, where
along the paths of life do unique aspects and intimately
personal experiences of disability cross into empathetic
understanding? And, where does understanding become the bridge
to inspire inter-reliance in relationships and personal
self-esteem?

Question: What is bothering me is
the feeling that I somehow betrayed my original east orthodox
religion and the Christ Himself. Actually, I become orthodox
after a lot of research. The fact of Holy Fire made me
orthodox. You can read about this miracle on www.holyfire.org/eng.
If you can explain to me why God is giving the holy fire only
to the orthodoxies, although I can see a lot of things that
make me wonder why He does that...

Poetry

I am ready to transcend.
What does that mean?
To leave, to let go,
to experience Truth untold?

Native American philosophy teaches that all
healing is first spiritual healing. Whatever else we
do—including herbs, diet, radiation, surgery, bodywork, or
medications—we need to humbly ask for help from the spiritual
realm. People with a spiritual practice do better with any
illness than those lacking religious beliefs; we must make
ourselves available to the Divine for healing. Spirit is a
necessary link in the chain that creates healing and miracles.
Spirit cannot be ignored, whether it is to give our pain back to
the earth or to accept healing from the earth, angels, or God.
If all healing is fundamentally spiritual,
then we must make ourselves available to God or to the spiritual
realm to be healed. In medieval times the touch of an angel
restored health. It still does today. Ceremony and ritual
provide the means for making ourselves available...

I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat.
Frankly, I still have difficulty with the labels,
conservative and liberal. Those who know me have never been able
to pigeonhole me. I relate to Kierkegaard's observation:
"Once you label me, you negate me." In truth, I
am a working stiff.
I have worked all my life, paid my taxes,
supported my family, and continue to "chop wood and carry
water," while being totally perplexed by what I hear coming
out of the mouths of our politicians. As a working stiff who has
earned enough to be in that top 1 percent income bracket, here
is what I would like you, the politicians, to hear as you go
about the business of government. These are views shared by most
of the people I speak to every day, in all income brackets.
YOU ARE NOT OUR LEADERS. No one that I know
goes to sleep at night saying, "My leaders are in
Washington, D.C." I fume when you refer to yourselves as
our leaders. You may pass laws while sitting in committees and
having Rose Garden ceremonies, but the laws come after the real
leadership has been implemented.
