September 28, 2012 Keanu made pee, pee in the big boy toilet. What excited parents!!
Isn't it great, what small progress makes parents happy.
My lesson for the day has been, do what you can do. I've been out cutting boards for the fence. I
had almost convienced myself I was getting too old to do such things. I received a message from a
special source. It said,"We must do what is within our Power and refuse to do what is not." I now
carry that with me to read.

True Story
My oldest son is now blessed with a son who is now 2 years old. My oldest son is now turning 49 years old. The 2 year old is especially active and loves to run. This son who was always a great athlete is now having trouble keeping up with his 2 year old. In Keanu's early life one of the things he would do was hold Keanu on his hand and raise him up. He was just learning how to stand up. Now the little guy has balance and speed.
In comes the solution !!! The one that has saved my son in the past, Sheba, the dog. Recently Keanu has been heading for a busy street when he can but at one point he escaped and was found attempting to cross the street. H.T. has found that tying a rope to Keanu and then to Sheba has solved a major problem. He no longer has to chase Keanu. The dog has been a woderful companion and is always loving and obedient unlike the 2 year old.

Health begins with balance
It seem's like health and having a life are two different thing's. As a young mother there never seemed like I had time to have a cup of coffee or tea let alone, have a manicure or hair done. As time goes on I realize that making time for myself would have been the greatest gift I could have given to my children. It seem's if you teach children mother's do not have the right to have time for themselves when they choose to be parent's they play it out in the same way. I can remember when all of a sudden my children were demanding that I do something for them because I was Mom, it was my job.
Complete balance is not just giving it is getting. Some us learn that later in life but it is nice to keep it in balance and do for other's as well as ourselves.

The old becomes new again in sleep
From: wwwheavenlyduvetlinenscovers.com I have been fortunate to watch Dr. OZ many times. I feel he is helping people take back their health.
Some of the sleep labs he has access to have recommended a dark setting to allow the mind to turn off, refrain from eating 2 hours before bed time, and if you have to have a telephone in your bedroom make it a land line. The telephone recommendation is an oldie but goody. We have come back to the possibility that the radiation from the cell phone is a major factor with people's health.
I have noticed in my own life that eating a big meal in the evening is a factor in my sleep state. I have noticed my body rejecting as much as I would like to put in it. Eating small amounts serves my body much better in more frequent times. Put a dab of lavender Oil on your forehead to help you relax.

Include Sleep in your healing process
In these days of instant food, Texting, and messageing, we sometimes forget that sleep is an important part of the body reguvinating itself. Alot of people take time away from this important function. Last week I introduced Doterri Pure Natural Oils and Lavender oil as the particular good at relaxing before sleep. By using a few drops on forhead and the bottom of your feet, the oil goes right the memory of relaxation. Dr. OZ recommends darkened covers and room to help with the sleep process. I must recommend that the Best Momey I have ever spent has been on the comforter and dark sheets from our heavenlyduvetslinens

Learning from Childhood trama's
Childhood was not an easy time for me. I realize as I am creating a book to celebrate my mother's life. I was the 2nd daughter with a younger brother. My sister and I are doing this project together. I was born with a rash that the Dr's did not know what it was. They isolated me in my early hour's of life. I have always believe that new Born's are closer to God and feel it has always helped me to be alone to heal my body. Later in life as a child I had panic attacks. When very frightened, I would hysterically run to my mother until she calm me down and help me understand, there was nothing to frightened. She would take me to the thing that frightened me. A large snake the cats had killed, my doll that had been disfigured by leaving it in the tank house, the light socket that had no bulb I had put my finger in. She would explain that each time, there was a reason for the fright but now you know the reason and need not be afraid. As an adult weather it be in the emergency room or in the middle of a tragedy, I am the calmest, under control and usually know what to do as a CNA. Sometimes its just helping a person into the life beyond as a Hospice CNA. I have found patients and understanding. What I can do, I do. What I can't help I hold the space for the ones who can. A gift from my mother that has been with me though out my life. Thank you Doris Gabler

Communication as a Healer
I was married to a handsome man that had humor and words available to him with every thought he had. I would wish I could respond with the same quickness but that was never my gift. My observation came about, that his words, although funny, were cutting to the quick of a person's soul. It then became my job to go behind him and pick up, emotionally, that person. They looked as tho they had been hit by a truck, when they realize what had been said. One day I realize I was not helping. I was not allowing him to understand what he was saying was not funny but very hurtful. It was soon I after that, I stopped. He divorced me. Since then I have realize that I have never been able to understand or be able to verberalize my own needs. I am aware now of what those needs are. I am now learning how to express these needs. It is not easy. I choose my words carefully. I have always felt if I could undersand what the problem is, I can deal with it. Now however I realize many people do not understand what the true problem is. Beginning to learn how to express your needs, in a calm way, allows the true need to come to the light. So many of us let the time pass until frustration takes over and the emotion twists the true problem into something else.

Each Purpose
Every being, every thing on Earth has a deep purpose and a guiding force for its existence
You, too, have a deep purpose and a guiding force for becoming all you are capable of being. You may sense this as that inner strength that directs you actions. Or that inner voice, the intuitive voice, that calls to you when your're at a crossroads in your life.
It is the deepest most holiest part of your being. "This is the path you should take" Jean Houston
I have added a few words from Jean because I think everyone needs to know why they are here and that each life is important. Each moment is a gift we can accept as wonderful moment or reject.
No one can tell another what their purpose is or what life is for--we all must find our own way. Lilly

Hellen Keller on Communication
I was priviledged to hear Jean Houston on a talk she was doing. She had the experience of visiting Hellen Keller. She was a little girl in New York. The children visiting Hellen were ask if they had any questions. ( I remember watching Patty Duke and Anne Bankroff depict her life and how Hellen was born without hearing or eyesite. Anne continued to work with her to learn signing for communication.)
Jean spoke of her experience hearing a women who had never heared a human voice before use the vibration of words to learn to speak. She was the one chosen to speak to Hellen. Hellen used her fingers to interpet the words while her other hand read her expression and face. She was ask what her life was like? She answered, "I live each day as if it were my last. Loving and relationships are reflections of my dreams. My showers are a constant cleansing. I pray let me be a blessing for the day, and for the community. I pray for others in need. Life and all its moments is so full of Glory and I live that Glory.
I hope you all had a glory filled day like I did. Lilly

Communicate and Heal
I have noticed that there are many of us that would rather be quiet and leave things alone rather than create a conflict.
I observed as a young bride, my new mother-in-law would internilize unwelcome and hurtful comments from my father-in-law. She was very sick with ruhmitory arthritise and as I watched her I realize she wore each hurtful comment like a piece of clothing. Each one twisting her body with another painful tight finger or bone.

Past Communication Wisdom
I have been working on our family history, with my sister, for about 10 years now. This week was our outing to allow her granddaughter to help us print a story about our mother.
We felt that Mom was the silent partener in the 60 year marriage to our father and it was about time she got some credit for the roll she played in giving us a very good childhood.
Our search and gather has been 10 years and much information. Starting with our great-great grandfather. We decided to do JUST MOM. As I went through the information. I called my sister and shared more information about my childhood. It was interesting because she didn't remember that I had panic attacks as a child or I wasn't allowed to go to kindergarten. ( Too Many Children) Or even that I had been kept separate of the other babies because, I was born with a rash that plaged me until Junior High School.
I realize that my early years had set me on a spirital path of very different understanding that makes this world go round. I realize coming in I was carrying my mother's fears to work out at a time that women were subservant and she was caught in a cycle that was beyond her. I too was born subservant but I was her great white hope to release the women of our family.
I now realize how my words are so important and could never be a quick witted person in a quick situation. So many times I wished I could but as I muled what had really happened. I realized that it all came from fear. Even tho the quick come back was funny and witty and the person's involved did not know what had hit them until later. The quiet response was my real blessing to truly understand the situation completely. The result was that No one deserves to be under cut and layed out flat with words, but it takes practice to know what the true response should be to get the positive result. What is good for one is good for both. Lilly

Communication for the non-able
Communication is an important part of the learning process. Many of us have not been able to use the words to get our needs met. This year 2012 it is my goal to communicate with the people in my life in a hope we can have all our needs met in a mutual satisfying way.
The key to this phrase is mutually satisfying by understanding what the needs truly are. Many times what the words are saying is not what the need truly is.
Through the sharing in this blog it is my desire to help as many non-communicators find the true words to have not only their needs met but also leaves the provider with a true sence of satisfaction. Too often the frustration of both get in the way. Lilly

preview post
Hello everyone; My name is Lilly and have been working with health for the past 20 years. The first 10 years has been in Holestic Health and the last 10 years has been with Medical health.
It has been my honor to be with a lady that has no children and is 94 years old. Emma has been a wonderful part of the community and has never been a person who would force her wishes onto others. Recently I have noticed as her hearing is leaving she has become more frustrated. It is something that she is dealing with in a way I have never expected from her. As I watch her, I realize her frustration is coming from the lack of communication. It occurred to me that communication is something people can learn
