Holidays and Families
by Claudia McNeely
Are you one of those who has survived another horrid holiday with your family? Do you dread holidays because it means you have to spend time with people that you choose not to spend time with any other day of the year? If so, WHY??
Too many of us feel that we ‘have to’ spend holidays with our families. That we ‘ought to’. That we ’should’. They are family, after all.
There was a time that I felt this way.
Each holiday, I would invite my family to my house because Samantha couldn’t go to theirs. (For those who don’t know, Samantha was my daughter. She was critically ill her entire life and made her transition several years ago.)
Twenty people would invade my house on every holiday. I cooked most of the food while still taking care of Samantha’s intense needs. The children would tear my house to shreds, breaking toys and making a huge mess. After we had all eaten, everyone would depart, leaving me with a disaster to clean up.
After numerous years of doing this, I realized what an idiot I was! Why was I putting myself through this on every holiday? What was the purpose?
I made one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. I stopped inviting my extended family over for holidays!
Holidays actually became pleasant times. I cooked only enough food for my own family. I took my time cooking, there was no need to hurry. If Samantha kept me up all night, I slept in and we ate later. It was peaceful with only the four of us. There was very little cleaning to do and no toys were broken. It was actually a relaxing day.
I have never regretted my decision.
In Samantha’s later years, we would invite her nurses, caregivers and their families over for the holidays. They were the people we enjoyed being with. They were our true family. They helped prepare the food and even cleaned everything up before they left. It was a joy to spend time with them.
We are born into our family or origin so that we can learn lessons from them. Our soul chooses the family that can most help us to grow and progress. Once we have learned the lessons we are with them to learn, it is no longer essential that we spend time with them. It is more important that we locate our Spiritual Family, the people who truly love us unconditionally, who we enjoy being with.
These days, if I don’t want to cook, we go out to eat. It is much easier to drive to a restaurant and order a meal. It may not taste as good, but it sure is nice.
Christmas is just around the corner. Make a decision to only spend time with people that you really enjoy being with from now on, people who make you feel wonderful and loved. Love yourself enough to be kind to yourself, to honor what feels good to you, to stop punishing yourself.
Give yourself the gift of peace for Christmas.
CieAura Transparent Holographic Chips™
by Claudia McNeely
I recently discovered the CieAura Transparent Holographic Chips™ . They are are a revolutionary new technology using effective homeopathic treatments devised over the past 3000 years.
The Transparent Holographic Chips™ are computer programmed holograms which when applied to a person or animal, reacts with the person or animals’ natural bio-magnetic field surrounding the body, causing minute positive disruptions of the bio-field and causing the body to balance its own energies. CieAura Holographic Chips have the look of simple, transparent decals on the body or clothing and are totally non-invasive and without any chemical component.
I have been using the CieAura Chips for 2 weeks now. I am feeling more energized during the day, with less pain, and sleeping better at night. I have not had a full night’s sleep in at least 25 years. I woke after about an hour of sleep and could not fall back asleep for hours. Since using the ‘Rest Quiet’ Chip, I am sleeping most of the night. If I do wake up, I am able to go right back to sleep. I am actually getting deep REM sleep for a change. This is helping my health considerably.
I use the ‘Pure Energy’ Chip and ‘Pure Relief’ for pain. Both help me to get through the day with more energy and less back pain. My clients are reporting similar experiences with the Chips.
To learn more about, or try this truly revolutionary healing, visit CieAura Transparent Holographic Chips™ . You can purchase them retail or sign up as a reseller. This business is fairly new, so you have the opportunity to get in on the ground floor and make a lot of money from them. I have never liked MLM, and am more interested in retailing these, but people have been known to make a lot of money with the right product, which this just may be.
Michael Jackson – ‘This Is It’
by Claudia McNeely
I took the opportunity for a much needed break and went to the movie theater to see Michael Jackson in ‘This Is Is’. It was an amazing experience.
‘This Is It’ is a compilation of video that was taken during MJ’s rehearsals for his tour. Only days before the tour was due to begin, he was found dead.
I have never really been a MJ fan. I enjoyed his songs growing up, but after I became an adult, I didn’t really pay much attention to his music. Since his death, I have come to realize how spiritual a good deal of his music is.
Many of the songs I heard in ‘This Is It’ were about saving the earth, changing ourselves to change the world and loving each other – music that we need more of in this world. It is a shame that Michael did not get to bring this music to the world as he wanted to.
It was apparent by watching the film and how Michael spoke to and treated those who worked with him that he was a loving, spiritual person. He spoke kindly to everyone at all times, he thanked them for their assistance and ‘God Bless You’ came out of his mouth often.
Watching the film reinforced the vision I have had of him as an Earth Angel. Had he completed his tour, people all over the world would have come away with a new sense of love for the Earth and each other.
This causes me to question why he was not allowed to complete the tour, why he was not allowed to bring this music to humanity. Because he didn’t, it is up to us to spread this message. Teach all you come in contact with about the importance of caring for the Earth and each other. We can change the world and make it a better place.
