GARDENS OF LIFE



I LOVE Gardens!  I have a little oval bumper sticker on my car full of little colorful flowers that says “Gardeners Plant Happiness”.  This is my Philosophy of Life, to plant and nurture Joy & Happiness in any way I can!  It’s fun to be really Imaginative and Creative about doing this!

I have many creative Gardens. First and foremost for me is My Family Garden.   My Family Garden includes my four children, and four grandchildren, my sisters, and all my other family.  Though I do not live close to all my children and grandchildren, I do visit them regularly in my Imagination and feel their love and energy in my heart every day! I have loved nurturing and feeling my Family Garden grow over these last 40+ years!  Right from the beginning of my experience as a Mother, I’ve encouraged each "flower" in my Family Garden to be true to him/herself and express his/her own unique individuality.   As my children (flowers) have grown up, they have returned this to me--each one respects and honors my individuality and uniqueness. My Philosophy with children is what we nurture and plant in our children when they are just little sprouts, truly is returned to us when they grow up! 

Then there is my Garden of Friends. This garden has some beautiful shrubs and bushes in it. The friendships I've nurtured and grown over my 60 years here on Earth have developed into nice, full flowering bushes with very deep roots! Sometimes I don't see some of my friends for a very long time as they are spread out throughout the USA and whole planet! They are quite diverse -- of many varieties and walks of life. Sometimes they appear to have "died out", sometimes they take a severe pruning - but they always come back richer, deeper and more enjoyable than before! My Philosophy with friends is "If I want a friend, I must first BE a friend"!

There is also my Garden of Life. This is a small book of poetry I've written over the last 30 years, summarizing the deepest experiences of my life as it has evolved and my energy has transformed and changed frequency many times over.   My "Snowflake" poem at the end of this page is one of my favorite poems of all, written in 1984. I have many favorite "flower poems" in my Garden of Life book, and plan to share some more of them with you on my websites over time.

I have grown a Crystal Garden – a collection of about 25 Austrian Crystals so far -- of many shapes and sizes which I hang in my windows all around the house, so that I have rainbows energy floating around in at least one room all through the day!  Each one of these crystals was given to me as a gift from someone I love who loves me, and I consider each one as a literal symbol of a “Dream Come True” from those times when I was “doing so much with so little”.  Many of these symbolize for me the successes of my children, as well as my own.  My Crystal Garden is truly also my Garden of Dreams Come True! A Garden of Benevolent Universal Law manifesting!

    OCHF is part of My Spiritual Garden!  My Spiritual Garden is composed of, first and foremost, my relationship with myself.  My relationship with myself is about trusting myself, believing in myself and continuously expanding this trust and belief in order to expand myself and perpetually evolve into becoming (embodying as a Divine Human) “more deeply and potently ” ALL that I Am.  My relationship with myself is about personal “Self Empowerment”!  My own Self Empowerment also includes others’ self empowerment and Empowerment of the New Energy Group Consciousness of which I Am an inseparable part. 
   
There actually isn’t a whole lot of difference between my Philosophy with Humans, Love, and my Philosophy of Wealth – and growing money, or anything else in my life!  What we nurture and plant inside ourselves, relative to our beliefs and attitudes about anything – including money and financial concerns is returned to us!  Many of our beliefs and attitudes are “inherited” and subconsciously “inserted” (programmed) into us  from our family and parents, and of course our cultural, education, and religious influences also play a big part in how we perceive and experience (or don’t experience) benevolence,  abundance, prosperity, and money.  It is up to us to “separate the wheat from the chaff!”  

My life and spiritual path has led me into exploring many different perspectives and experiences.  These experiences have led me to plant many Gardens!  I have experienced material abundance and material poverty, and a whole lot in between!    I have worked for large corporations and small businesses; I have helped others build their own business/professional practice; I am experiencing working for myself as a self-employed person, and building my own Path of Wealth.   

I’ve often been educated by Life Itself, rather than textbooks  It was through some of these experiences that my dedication to nurturing a new educational system for our children was born.  Thus, my interest in helping to create new schools for our Crystal Children now, through OCHF.

Our Money Garden and Our Crystal Heart Foundation Garden, is definitely not a garden  just for & about me.  It is a Garden about & for all Lightenergy / Lightworkers-Energy Changers, everywhere.  It began with a seed I’ve carried within me for us all since coming to earth this lifetime.  Now I have finally been “empowered” by the new energy to plant this seed in the soil of the earth, grounding it for us all now. I have released it all by putting it on the internet.  It’s existence, birth, growth and evolvement is a result of everyone’s conscious awareness and energetic investment now. 

OCHF is manifesting and evolving as we as a group are.    An investment in OCHF is an investment in yourself, what you believe in, are willing to stand for, and perhaps most significant of all, it’s an investment in New Energy and all the JOY, benevolence, abundance and Self Love inherent within the New Energy!  Any New Energy manifestation is synergy = something which is more than the sum of its parts!  

I feel so blessed!  Through small things, I’ve truly felt how benevolent our Universe is!  I learned in those most difficult, trying times in my life to always look for the “best” in everyday life…at least one beautiful, inspiring thing everyday—and I always found it -- and so, I found and expressed a smile in my heart and soul everyday! 

As I look back through my 61 years of life, I see how I have planted  all my Gardens of Natural Benevolence & Abundance  through my daily attitude, open hearted perceptions and firm belief in myself and being willing to act upon what I believed in, no matter how it all “appeared” to others!

I see clearly how I have kept myself open to “more than meets the eye” and believed all is not what it appears to be!  I clearly see how my own sense of Inner Wealth & Abundance, including Self Appreciation & Self Esteem, has kept me above water, no matter how I and my life appeared to others (or even myself sometimes)!   I have “trained” myself to choose my own beliefs, even create my own beliefs if need be, rather than depend on the mass “assembly line,”  “prepackaged” ones presented by our society!   I have “Questioned Authority” since I was born!  When I was a young girl, my own father used to tell me, “When you were born, you broke the mold!” And so I have, and so I am still doing…


In Essence,
We Are One,
Just as all snowflakes
are made of snow,
yet each one is unique
in itself
