I felt like closing the gate to my soul. There was too much "nothing" polluting my space. The "nothing" contained selfishness, hate, pride, self importance and self adoration. But it also contained light which I couldn't see clearly any longer.
While in this space of solitude, my grand – grand – grand – father Aristotle found the grace and kindness to explain to me about the DIVINE SUBSTANCE the aether where all our actions and thoughts are recorded. His "Cosmology" has much substance indeed!
In the same space I met Dante who told me: "in order to reach the Paradise of the soul, you have to go first through the "Inferno and Purgatorio". Nothing is easy and nothing should be taken for granted. Great mind this Dante guy! Did it take my soul almost 700 years to understand what Alighieri did see so clearly such a long time ago? Poor me!
The "Light Bringer" ~ Lucifer~ is not that bad after all! We are all destined to fall, get up and walk again. The "nothing" has form and color and it is part of the whole.
What a relief!
I was watching the sun set and looking forward for the sun rise.
Puede secarse mi alma ~ but the same soul can bath itself in the light which is always there, waiting patiently for us to see and share.
This place is called Varnava and it is about 1 hour and a half ( by car) away from Athens. I have spent a week in the middle of nature with no TV, phone, PC and clock. I was in the company of a very good friend, sipping my coffee while greeting the sun rise and went to bed when my body told me to. I swam in the beautiful sea, meditated near the rocks washed by the crystal water and let the breeze hug me.
This was a gift I will treasure for ever!
Love you all
Marinela
Well I do continue the Saga of the received gift and add some more photos of the place I have been to. My body is in Athens but my heart and soul is still in Varnava.

This is the small pitoresque house I stayed in.

Meet Daizy, my friend's dog who looked after us while not sleeping. My friend found her into the street some years ago. Daisy was shot in the leg; she took him to the vet and then home; since then Daizy is a member of the family.

This is BooBoo, the other dog found in the street as well. She never stops eating and is always curious to know what's going around. She is lovely and the love she shows you as soon as you come back home is worth all the money in the world!

A part of the huge garden where there are plenty of lemon trees, fig trees, olive trees
and not to mention the apricots which were delicious!

Same garden and the vineyards brought from the island of Crete where my friends comes from.

Have a wonderful day my friend! I love Greece!
I would also love to visit Greece.
That smile of yours is reaching the eyes for sure.
You are all wonderful people!
One wise person I heard speak said he thought there were only angels: the "being" angels who simply watch, recording events and emanating divine love/order; and the "doing" angels who bedevil us into taking action......
When David said "I will fear no evil," he may have known that evil is simply part of our education here on earth - that fearing it [putting a strong negative focus on it] increases it; but it doesn't have to be increased, if we refuse to fear it. We CAN transform evil into power for healings.
Your wisdom is glowing in this gorgeous gift you have shared.
I am sending out your CD tomorrow. I apologize for taking so much time to get it to you.
Thinking of you and surrounding you with love and light
Like the elders I have always seen Lucifer as the shinning bright Venus, so I never thought of him less than light.
Is my mind twisted?
Well, we all share from the fountain of knowledge and interpret according to our own understanding which may change or simply stay the way it is.
Thank you for taking the time to read
love and the soft breeze may be with you wherever you go!

thank you
Will you come to Greece this summer?????????????????????????
thank you dear one
Thank you so much and enjoy summer!
I am rich but not in the material sense ( I know you understand this), and am also blessed and feel that way.
Guess what? in the beginning of this summer I said to myself: Sh...I can't afford to have a vacation! then I meditated and simply asked the Divine Abundance to help me enjoy some time outside Athens. I was invited by 4 friends of mine who have summer houses. I already went to the wonderful place you have seen above and also in Evia which is a beautiful small island. Next week I am on my way to Crete.
Love ya and wish you good luck in the Virgin island. The name says it all: you will start a new cycle and as Chris said: your hubby will feel much better!
Thank you
U wishing you laughter
