Beyond it.

              What do you do when someone says, “don’t go there?”  Do you go anyway, just to see for yourself elf?  We do.  And that’s what is happening tonight.  There is a restaurant in town that I’ve been wanting to try for a really long time.  I asked the in-town kids to meet us there.  Empress had other plans, so she can’t make it.  Jade has other plans too, but they are later in the day.  Or, night, rather.

              He’s going to a birthday party.  With a theme.  He came by to borrow a belt buckle.  The better to complete this outfit.

Cowboy Karaoke night.
(Wow.)

             Yes, Max is there too.  I went for the Two-fer again.  Daily Dog plus my son wearing an outfit that I simply can’t wrap my head around.

             Did I mention that I’m pre-writing this?  Well, I am.  Hopefully we’ll be back in time that I can give my own review of the meal, but if not, here’s our card.

       ”Rise Above Problems  ~

When you are in the middle of a problem, the solution often evades you.  See your situation from a higher perspective, and you may see a new way out.

Have you been feeling frightened by a seemingly insurmountable situation?  Your fears and tension may have created a negative obsession, where you think about the problem continually.  Although you search endlessly for solutions, none seem forthcoming, and hopelessness creeps into your consciousness.

 Whether your situation seems big or small, this card asks you to step back for an instant so that you can better see creative solutions.

Instead of continually working on the issue, mentally see yourself giving the problems to Heaven’s waiting hands.  Like completely letting go of an envelope that you are mailing, surrender the issue entirely.  Then, imagine how the fairies might see your problem.  

How would your problem look from their perspective?  Feel the sense of faith and hopefulness that they lend to you, and know that these positive emotions fuel the complete resolution of the issue.

Affirmation:

My heart, my mind, my life, and everyone in it are perfectly at peace right now.”

             So much like yesterday’s message, don’t you think?  Even if we may not instinctively associate with that fear mentioned initially, keep the affirmation in mind.  Because, like the previous sign from the Universe, we aren’t directed here for no reason.  Maybe we’re obsessing over something more than we realize.

             I want to leave you with this great photo from earlier, while we go grab dinner (which may or may not be interesting and edible).

A tiger-striped alligator?

              This item was in a yard we walked past.  No feathers on the ground, but then, it was hot out, so I may have missed ‘em.  (We trudged over three miles, all up hill, it seemed.)

LateNight Eatery Review:

Evergreen Indian Restaurant, go there!  It’s WONDERFUL !

Also, saw the feather on our post meal wander (with a lovely tour guide, thanks Charles!) and Dan spotted a Tennessee plate.

(Seriously, Jade.  That hat.)
