Wow. Thank you so much! That was beautiful and very kind of you to leave that message. I really appreciate it. Honestly, it is all my pleasure to help in any way I can.

You bring up a great point in your first comment regarding giving without any expectation for something in return. As I give, it has become such a natural way of being. I don’t expect anything for what I provide, yet I always know that I will be taken care of and cared for by the very interconnected web of existence I mentioned. I believe and have found it to be true – the more we serve others (from a loving place) and give them something which provides value and an increase in their lives, the more we thrive (on all levels) in our own life. That’s the real “Secret.”

Thank You for Being You
Thank you for the gift of you and your kindness
Thank you for being the person you are:
compassionate and thoughtful,
sensitive and considerate,
a generous and thoughtful giver.
You are unselfish always,
putting others before yourself,
making me/us feel special and important.
Thank you so much for all you do;
You are truly a delight;
You are a person
who makes life easier and better
Your continual acts of thoughtfulness
and kindness brighten each day.
What you did for me today
will glow in my memory forever,
reviving pleasant feelings
every time I think about it.
I appreciate you,
and I give great thanks for YOU
It is my highest privilege and a pleasure to know you.

Thank You John, in the Largest Ways~*~

Throughout my lifetime of driving, I have often encountered the “flip off” symbol from men drivers mostly who are unhappy that a female driver can bust a move when need be. I’m never rude about it and always make the appropriate signal but then I MAKE MY MOVE. I’m not the type to “wait” for someone to let me in. You can’t do that where I live, you have to make room for yourself. Anyways, I’ve been flipped a few times and this gesture never bothered me, rather it would amuse me but I have a tendency of turning things around like that. After 2003, whenever that happened I would give them a gesture back….I would blow them a kiss and tell them I love them LoL, they never knew what hit them and they weren’t to sure how to respond to that act of loving kindness. To this day I still do that but the finger gesture hasn’t happened in a while and if it does, I’ll continue to blow them a sweet kiss through my window Again, this also comes back to what you were sharing with us, internal decision is indeed a large factor in today’s society structure many are now understanding or trying to comprehend these very concepts you write about John.

Your right on the mark about the real meaning of giving, which is also why I don’t get to wrapped up in Christmas. People are gift giving because they feel they HAVE to gift give and it’s more of a pain in the butt for them to do so. Therefore the true and real reason for “gift giving” is totally lost. I feel Christmas is all about commercialism anyhow since we all know by know that Jesus was never born on 12/25 3,000 years ago. Long story there. I used to have my own business and I would do all sort of end and odd jobs for free. My clients always insisted I accept their tip for my work but I would not do so. The work that I was doing for them, I “wanted” to do for them out of the goodness of my heart. I knew that by giving and not expecting anything in return, that our Universe had my back. My reward was seeing their warm smile, or their outright surprise over my work, or how much simpler their lifestyle would be due to something I was inspired to do for them. That was priceless to me and that IS what I worked for. By giving to someone or something in expectation of receiving something back, the true meaning of giving is completely ignored. People pleasing and performing good deeds FOR praise or FOR a price is truly not honoring the real meaning of generosity of spirit, for in doing so, something again is being expected, as if there was a CLAUSE for “giving.” Such an action only stands to hurt both people in the process. This is seemingly such a simple concept and yet one of the hardest ones for humanity to understand.

I love your words “interconnected web of existence” for how true this is. Many people have heard the saying, “we are all one” but they still don’t seem to understand just how deeply that is meant and on what level on a Grand Universal scale. We all effect each other, our energy is effecting other energy, we are effecting Earth, the Universe, consciousness, human and soul evolution. I often get overwhelmed with some of my research when I come upon such negative information of happenings and control of our world and wonder how it is that we can HEAL all of this. However, for me personally, I keep in mind to not get overwhelmed by all of the varying degrees of energy vibration and maintain my vibrational rate, visualize and meditate on love for all of Earth and stay in that field of loving consciousness, knowing that I am playing a huge role in the energy web of existence. We all have very particular talents, skills and abilities which is why we are still incarnated on Earth right now.

It’s up to us individually to find what that means to us yet being an active part of the whole and set an example for all, such as your inspiring and love filled website you’ve created. Your helping and aiding in the advancement of humanity, of our soul development for humans all over the globe John and I for one am extremely grateful for the Universe Gift of YOU, John Wolfe. Thank you, thank you, thank you Dear Great Friend.

Many Blessings Forever, Goldie~*~
