Today Mom, Mom2 & I were off to this 'thing'. You see, I wasn't quite sure what it was, but it sounded interesting. I received an email while I was on the ship with Jaco, inviting me to this event with a Doctor who did some healing & was also an inspirational speaker. There were 75 free VIP tickets for the first gals to respond. Hmm. Free. Healing. Inspirational. Sure, why not! So I responded & asked for 3 tickets. Today was the day.
It was quite interesting. The guest speaker, Dr. Sugar Singleton, helps women heal on a cellular level. Your cells all have a cellular memory & most often it is subconscious. Dr. Sugar helps you remove these blocks to become '_________' - insert your favourite positive adjective here!
It was interesting to hear what she had to say, however, I was slightly turned off when I heard how much it would actually cost to experience the 'healing'. Yeah, sure they pick me up in a limo & I spend a few days in a nice mansion in Arizona with a personal chef. But. $4000? Hmm. I felt like I'd been had. Sure, I'd love to go & I'm sure it would be very empowering & uplifting. Perhaps I will one day, but tomorrow doesn't look like the day! So it was basically an exciting advertisement for what COULD happen...
Dr. Sugar did talk about a social network for women, called Brave Heart Women. Apparently you can go to Brave Heart Women & sign up, FOR FREE. Here you can find like-minded women who want to make a difference in the world & want to pursue a lifetime of growth. They want to inspire, live with passion & find their purpose. As cheesy as it might sound, I think it's pretty neat. Thinking about it, why not join together & start working to make the world a better place! I've been racking my brain trying to come up with a way to help Africa & now, here's my chance! Regardless of your cause or your chosen issue you keep close to heart, there is someone else out there who shares your passion & why not do something about it! In fact, the irony of this was the lady who sat next to me. She was friendly & we chit chatted a bit. At the end of the presentation, we started to visit a bit more & I brought up my plight of SA & Zuma. We talked about Africa in general & she then revealed to me that she is working to build a school for girls in Ghana! How great is that? I was excited to know that here we sat, only two women, but there was obviously something we could do! Hah!
Of course, the Moms enjoyed every minute of it & are anxious to get to AZ ASAP! We went to Original Joe's afterwards for a quick bite to eat. I found the ill feeling returning again & by the time we left, I thought I ought to have a baggie nearby just in case! I'm pleased to report that I'm feeling much better as I'm typing this. I still have this annoying tickle in my throat - must be all that opera I've been practicing lately. Just kidding. I did listen to Katherine Jenkins yesterday though. Does that count? Perhaps I have cellular memories of trying to sing opera & it hurt my throat... Okay, I'll stop now!
Tomorrow is Invictus & Roughnecks Lacrosse... I just love to see 80 year old Grannies up & out of their seats yelling 'WHACK 'EM!!!' at the top of their lungs. I go for the music & the crowd. Don't ask me anything about the game, except that it's rough. Sleep well & see you tomorrow night!
Happy Valentine's Day & may you share your love & affection with those that matter most to you. Big hugs & kisses,
Maria & Valentina
