Getting out of the way!
Strange how our minds work. It’s hard to believe that we have been publishing True Blue Spirit for three years, yet those first issues still seem like a dream.
In the early stages of True Blue Spirit’s inception I remember a vision I had during dream time. I saw an arm reaching out from the East Coast and another from the West Coast. They clasped hands in the center of Canada. I took this to mean that eventually True Blue Spirit would reach right across the country.
In spite of my analytical mind getting in the way, this vision has indeed come to pass. Being a member of Magazines Canada has played a large role; and yet many times when I first felt nudged to join—I shook it off. Perhaps I felt it was too much of a corporate type entity for our warm fuzzy magazine. But what I found was a group of wonderful people, just like our readers and contributors, who wanted to help us get the True Blue Spirit stories out there.
We can have all the visions and synchronicities in the world, but if we don’t push our misconceptions, doubts and other assorted garbage out of the way they aren’t worth a pinch of salt. The assistance we’ve received through Magazines Canada’s distribution, training and mentorship programs has been invaluable.
Yes, it’s been three years, and I am still learning to get out of my own way! Thank goodness for the patience of spirit.
Keep well.
Dorothy



We spent time yesterday at the Crystal Light Sanctuary on Salt Spring Island. Carol and James Henry Spencer (Jim) were wonderful hosts as always. When it came to the mediumship portion of the event, two messages came through loud and clear from spirit and these were happily received by visitors to the Sanctuary. One message was from a young man who had only recently passed over after Christmas. These messages from spirit can be emotional, but they are so worth it.
