Painting an Island Home

This home belongs to a woman who lives on a tiny island in Panama. She has no husband and her son is very ill. Most of her money goes to hospital bills for his care.
 We are so excited for her today as her home is finally getting painted. when we asked her if we could paint her home, at first she didn't understand. Apparently my Spanish needs some work, or maybe the idea was so foreign to her that she thought she must have misunderstood me.
 When a translator explained everything to her, she buckled right there in the slop. He had to catch her so she didn't fall. You see, the water under her house is contaminated with raw sewage.
Anyway, through her tears, she agreed we could paint her house for her.
She picked out a lovely bright green and white trim for the windows. Here you can see Mijo, Gordo and a couple other boys hard at work painting...and laughing...I am super happy we can pay them for their labor too...
Mijo might need a shower... :-)

Refuse to be Safe!

I refuse to be safe. I have been back in The States for about 6 weeks now and I keep hearing this phrase everywhere. "I'm so glad you're safe" Does this mean I wasn't safe before? I keep hearing it everywhere, not just directed at me. Everyone is saying it to everyone. Like Zombies walking around asking each other, "Are you safe?" "Yes, I'm safe."  "I'm so glad you're safe." What has happened?! Is the world such a big scary place out there?  I see all over Facebook people talking about how they are afraid for people who are traveling, especially going over seas. I see people saying they will never go anywhere. LORD< SEND ME! How can we change the world if we are safe? I believe this is all by design. I believe the powers that be want you to stay home and watch your TV. I believe they want to distract you, disconnect you, instill fear in you. PARALYZE YOU! Don't let them. Get out of your comfort...

Want to Have a Spiritual Awakening?

Dangers of Fluoride I am having trouble staying focused this morning. My thoughts seem to have a life of their own, I feel a little scattered and unable to concentrate, and it may be due to years of fluoride exposure. Even if this day’s scatteredness is just due to the rain, I have most certainly been impacted by the fluoride that has been in my drinking water and in my toothpaste since I was a little girl.  Did you know that fluoride was originally labeled by the EPA as a toxic waste that was part of the uranium enrichment process? And yet, we are being forced to endure its effects with the promise that it is good for us, even necessary. Well here is a short list of some of the things that fluoride produces in our bodies. Cancer Genetic DNA Damage Thyroid Disruption – affecting the complete endocrine system and leading to obesity Neurological Damage – diminished IQ and inability to focus, lethargy and weariness.
