"We must believe in luck. For how else can we explain the success of those we don't like" ... Jean Cocteau

Divergence

Well, I feel a little spaced-out this morning. Not from any imbibitions, but from something I was told last night. I will now backtrack and give some context to the story. Judith and I decided to sell our house / inn last spring. So when she died last August, I have continued to try and sell the house and move back to Moncton, the city of my birth and where I have spent most of my life. In my head, I have been telling myself that I can get a new life, for me and my daughters by doing that (selling & moving).

Fast-forward to yesterday, Jean-Pierre’s friend, Nisha came to visit. When they arrived from an afternoon at the beach with the kids, she went and took a nap in her room. After supper her and I were alone in the kitchen and she said “I’m kinda psychic and I hear people talking to me and I got this when I was up in my room.”

From J…Please don’t sell it, please don’t sell it (I heard this several times)...It will be worth a lot in the future. We put so much love into it. The girls will feel it. Get help to run it, maybe a cook. The girls could help with the laundry. Love you… That growing up they will feel me here more…here!

So, being one who believes in our connection to the spirit world, this has been sending my mind for a run around the block. What do I do, I have sort of made up my mind that I have to sell this place, for my peace of mind and for financial considerations. I have been in this sort of eternal weekend / limbo state of mind, waiting for some sort of sign or something. So, do I have my sign and have to make a decision which path to follow? Life goes on…

    Life goes on and I am just beginning to see where I am, who I am and which mission or path to choose.

    I finally decided on creation, creativity as the only path I am able to follow – or where people see me as a human being and not a stupid “mental case”. I had read somewhere, from a film producer, that he was putting all his mental health disorders in his art. So, he’s no more stretched between what is right or wrong – art is both when it is done with passion and a “souci de l’esthétisme”.

    Randy, I would like to share a short text with you, from Félix Leclerc.
    “LE GRAND SECRET :
    FUIR LES ENDROITS FACILES ET RENTRER DANS LE SILENCE À MESURE QUE LE BRUIT S’APPROCHE.” (La loi des chevreuils)

    Is your phone disconnected or you have a new number???

    Forgot to tell…
    I was in Lamèque last week and I go to visit Aldège and got the book “Sex,Time and Power”.
    And, by the way, paths are not easy to find sometimes. Maybe you have to follow the day to day path (limbo state of mind) for a while. Some sort of sign or something will get to you… Continue to believe in you, stay open and the communication with yourself will be re-established, when????

    With Judith, you were in symbiose, a wheel of the wagon is missing and the wagon have to wait for his wheel to continue his path.

    I love you site; you have the “sens de l’esthétique” and a very efficient utilization of the technology. CHAPEAU!!!!!
    Carmen
