Needing to adapt to the new times, Satan decided to get rid of a whole lot of his stock of temptations. He placed an ad in the newspaper and attended his customers all day in his workshop.

It was a fantastic stock: stones for the virtuous to stumble over, mirrors for increasing one’s self-importance, and spectacles that reduced the importance of others. Some objects hanging on the wall drew a lot of attention: a dagger with a curved blade to be used on someone’s back, and tape-recorders that registered only gossip and lies.

- Don’t worry about the price! - shouted old Satan to the potential customers. - Take it home today and pay for it whenever you can!

One of the visitors noticed two tools lying in a corner that seemed to be quite worn and attracted little attention. But they were very expensive. Curious, he wanted to know the reason for that apparent discrepancy.

- They are worn because they are the ones that I use most of all - answered Satan with a laugh. - If they drew a lot of attention, people would know how to protect themselves.

- However, they are both worth the price I am asking for them: one is Doubt, the other is the Inferiority Complex. All the other temptations can sometimes fail, but these two always work.

JANE!!!! Ooohhh, I have some MOST awesome happenings in CYRES that I am wanting to tell you. It’s a little tough to try and type with a dog in my lap, but I am managing. *LOL* AFTER I sent you that message about knowing CAnn was in CYRES yesterday?? Well- I magically “found time”, and went back last evening. What an AWESOME evening it was, too!!! I had mentioned to CAnn that I was wanting to create those visible “Happy Sparkle Thoughts” at my humble little “place-and-space-in-time”. AND?? Guess what? Yep, I NOW actually HAVE REAL “Happy Sparkle Thoughts”!!! Oh boy- it is SO FUN to BE “Creating my reality”, for sure.

Hehehe.. I also must admit that I was playing around, too. I was “sorta patiently” waiting for CAnn (she was busy with things)- and was struck with a little creativity and inspiration of my own. I was waiting over next to Abraham’s Theatre, and noticed the benches outside. Well. I JUST wanted to find out what.. a.. chicken.. would “look like” there next to the benches. Know what??? *LOL* One chicken quickly grew into a.. “Happy Rainbow” assortment of chickens!! Heheheheh!! THEN- I was having SO much fun doing this, that I decided to test my skills out upon the unicorns I have in my yard. I sent you a few pictures.. right now I have to scamper back- as.. I FORGOT (yes, again!) to.. take a picture of the chickens. : )

Oh!! Something ELSE really neat?? All those butterflies that I created?? NOW are REAL butterflies, flitting and fluttering around!! Yep- CAnn taught me how to “make stuff MOVE”!! With all these SO totally awesome happenings, I really did feel like it was like my birthday- but even better. Just because I can share all these interesting “things” with other people who might be dropping in to SEE what dreams are made of, I suppose. THIS is what inspires me. To be knowing that there ARE people who are not afraid of “reaching beyond”, and who dare to explore- and experience NEW and perhaps “different” things. I truly do love all that I am able to experience- the potential for learning is infinite and V-E-R-Y exciting! By the way, Joey peeked in, and gave me a very nice compliment. : ) He was intrigued by the (new) sign I created, and have displayed on the front of my “admittedly different” structure. He said he is extremely interested in “hearing MORE” about this- and?? Yep, I shall QUITE happily share.

I am hoping that you are doing well today, and I just also wanted to perhaps give you an additional “smile”. The effect of those magically fluttering butterflies not only make ME quite happy- they are also having QUITE the effect upon my cats!! *laughing hysterically* These dreams that ARE reality just keep growing exponentially! *LOL* Ooohhh, Jane. Thank you so much for all the happiness that you bring forth into this awesome “Uni~verse”. I shall be quite content, and excited to be helping in this educational, inspirational venture. It is.. just.. SO much fun! I believe in you.

With MORE love than I can possibly express with words,
Sue

‘In this fiery and funny talk, New York Times food writer Mark Bittman weighs in on what’s wrong with the way we eat now (too much meat, too few plants; too much fast food, too little home cooking), and why it’s putting the entire planet at risk.’

‘Ocean explorer Robert Ballard takes us on a mindbending trip to hidden worlds underwater, where he and other researchers are finding unexpected life, resources, even new mountains. He makes a case for serious exploration and mapping. Google Ocean, anyone?’

Oh Dearest Jane,

I just absolutely adore that awesome photograph of the smiling bee!! It is SO darn cute that I just laugh out loud whenever I look at it. Who says that nature doesn’t “have consciousness”, anyway? The proof is in the pictures- AND our very selves. Anyway. Remember when I mentioned to you yesterday that I am learning “new stuff” to create? WELL. Last evening, I went back to CYRES (I so totally am loving it HERE)- and?? YAY! I made a sign! *LOL* I did happily remember to take a picture of it, and of the other entities that I have created upon my “little spot of heaven” here. I am going to be “doing MORE stuff” later today.

While I was there last evening, I was VERY excited to be seeing CAnn, and another person as well. A REALLY awesome painting has been gifted to the CYRES Cafe, and the subject of this painting is QUITE remarkably “serendipitous”. The subject is “Time”.. that soo confounding entity which just seems to escape me- and is so very precious. Elongating, continuing- infinite.. when I begin to contemplate this; I “feel” like I am literally “falling down the rabbit hole” like Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland” character. Oooohhh- were you perhaps.. looking for a picture?? *snickering* Umm.. I kinda got “wrapped up in time, experiencing the moment”, and.. forgot!! : )

I “felt” CAnn was in CYRES earlier this morning- and? Sure enough, she IS!! Neat how this happens, huh? There’s some sort of puzzling “time- warp” thing going on, so I wasn’t able to talk with her.. so I made use of “my time” and wandered over to the VR Theatre. There’s a really neat movie clip of “Imagine” starring Kirk Douglas- and I DID remember to take a picture! *LOL* It sounds and looks very interesting, so I’m writing it down on a “Post- it Note” of things I’d like to see AND do. Sometime. : )

There is just a “never- ending” banquet of morsels to be sampled at this MOST incredible “place-in-space-and-time”.. it really does cause me to be dizzy at times. I am needing to go and rest a bit. Please be knowing that I am sending you infinite quantities of “Happy Sparkle Thoughts”, which include LOVE and gratitude.
PS: Thank you for that gorgeous cobalt blue mug of coffee!

Happily “me”.. forever in the tone of G# (ANOTHER infinite source of ~god*bumps~!)

The devil said to Buddha:

- It isn’t easy to be the devil. When I speak I have to use enigmas so that people do not realize the temptation. I always need to appear smart and intelligent so that people admire me. I spend lots of energy convincing a few disciples that hell is more interesting. I’m old and I would like to pass my pupils on to you.

Buddha knew that this was a trap: if he accepted the proposal, he would turn into a devil and the devil would become Buddha.

- You think it’s fun to be Buddha - he answered. - Besides having to do the same things as you do, I also have to stand what my pupils do to me! They put words in my mouth that I did not say and they demand that I be wise the whole time! You could never stand a life like that!

The devil was convinced that changing roles was not really a good deal, and Buddha escaped from the temptation.

Oh Jane!! I just want to happily HUG you- I am soooo darn excited! *LOL* Yep- I was wanting to do a bit more “creating” in CYRES (pretending that I actually KNOW what I am doing, when I “think” I am guided by MUCH wiser minds than my own!) last evening, so I landed at the airport. I was SO happily excited to notice a visitor there!! He was very impressed with ALL the things to experience around PeaceCity- and I asked him if he’d ridden in the flying saucer, or visited Farmer John’s Farm yet. He had not- so I showed him where the saucers are parked, and we zipped over to the farm.

I sorta “dinged up” the saucer a bit.. crashing into buildings that.. I was not “seeing” until after I had ended up in the walls. Sorry!! *sigh* He was a MUCH better driver than I, and we landed at the farm behind one of the barns, and wandered around for quite some time. He was very impressed with the information at the farm, and thought it quite interesting. Something off in the distance caught his eye as well. There is the Aquarium behind the large cornfield- so we also walked over there.

I managed to remember to take a picture of him feeding the dolphins!! SO much better than SeaWorld- no long lines here.. Anyway. One could stay there for several hours, reading and viewing all the gorgeous photographs and information at the aquarium. I KNOW I’d been there before, but it just amazes me how FUN it is to BE experiencing this through someone else’s viewpoint. AND, it never fails to excite me how I a-l-w-a-y-s manage to find YET another “something new” to notice!!

Something else that I wanted to let you know? I am trying to learn how to do an “aesthetically pleasing” job with “creating stuff”; and almost took a picture of what I’ve done so far.. but. *LOL* Umm.. I am a little shy about wanting it to be perfect, and I’m going to wait for CAnn because I am needing a little help in figuring out how to make the finishing touches on a pond that I am trying to make. Getting the dimensions, and objects to line up correctly is a bit challenging- but I KNOW that if I am persistent and patient, things will work out exactly the way they are supposed to. Quite funny, these parallels to our “reality”, huh?.

It really lifted my spirits quite a lot to talk with you this morning. Life sure has an interesting way of letting us BE aware of our priorities in life, as I was reminded in an all too “scarily real” way this past weekend. I do treasure so VERY much being able to live my “life’s purpose”- by “actively caring”, and being supportive and compassionate wherever and whenever I CAN. I guess what I’m really trying to say is this. I want to thank you so very, very much for so generously sharing- for my adventures in “PeaceCity and CYRES Cafe are also yours. The joy this brings is spreading exponentially- and it just.. keeps.. getting… B-I-G-G-E-R and BETTER!!!

I am wanting to get back to CYRES Cafe, and find out if I can “snag” CAnn for a few minutes, so I am going to cut this a little short. I COULD keep pouring forth my enthusiasm, and love forever you know. *LOL* I am knowing that your day is filled with many uplifting and encouraging “happenings”, and I feel SO fortunate to actually BE a part of this wondrously magical “Uni~verse”.

Love,
Sue.. aka “HAPPILY Hugging this Universe” : )
