<p align="justify">Children need to know…</p>
<p align="justify">You must reach beyond what you know into the complete unknown to understand who you are.  Your energy is yours alone and anytime you define yourself in terms of your thoughts, other peoples thoughts about you or the norms of the culture in which you live, you are being unfaithful to yourself! Everyone’s purpose and meaning is different and shouldn’t be expected to confine ones own purpose to a box that others before them made. You are much more then anything that can be seen or explained in this physical reality. Bigger then the thoughts and opinions of others. Larger then the sea of questions that surround existence and space.  You like everything else, are love! You have an energy body and a physical body and both need to be feed a nourishing diet of understanding.  You were created with love and love carries you from one day to the next on a magic carpet of dreams and possibilities!  Your past does not define you and the future is not here yet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>Happy Monday Y&#8217;all,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Well its been a joyful, but busy couple of weeks!</div>
<div>I have been enjoying the days in the sun with my children.</div>
<div>I am so thankful every moment!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Sense the very start of my spiritual journey I have been using</div>
<div>Intending.  I learned it early on from Abraham-Hicks.</div>
<div>I love the powerful feeling I get knowing I can</div>
<div>intend it and let it go.  Know that the intention made was all that</div>
<div>was needed to set the energy around what ever task.  I have been</div>
<div>teaching intention to children and families with great results for years.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Recently after reading an article about Solar Water, learning</div>
<div>Ho&#8217;oponopono has become the next baby step in my journey. </div>
<div>I love how easy it is and all of the benefits of saying </div>
<div>&#8220;I Love You.&#8221;  </div>
<div>Ho&#8217;oponopono is simply cleansing every moment with</div>
<div>love and forgiveness.  Taking complete responsibility for</div>
<div>every second of your life and Cleanse it.  Then let go.</div>
<div>Trusting that your highest good will come. </div>
<div>You don&#8217;t have to intend exactly what you want,</div>
<div> but trust that the divine knows exactly whats best for you. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>At least that&#8217;s my view of what I have learned about Ho&#8217;oponopono.  </div>
<div> </div>
<div>While talking to my mom about not intending but letting</div>
<div>go and trusting, she said as long as I was not intending with</div>
<div>specific expectations she didn&#8217;t think it could hurt.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here&#8217;s the example that she used&#8230;</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I intend to make $600 dollars by Tuesday, next week @ <span id="lw_1246913041_0" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed; cursor: hand;">5pm</span>&#8230;</div>
<div>That&#8217;s to specific!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I intend to have a safe happy healthy day&#8230;</div>
<div>That&#8217;s setting an intention for your highest good to manifest.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So I thought&#8230;. how about just saying</div>
<div>{sense intending has become <span id="lw_1246913041_1" class="yshortcuts">second nature</span>}</div>
<div>&#8220;I intend to trust in my highest good to present itself with joy!&#8221;</div>
<div>Cleansing with    </div>
<div>&#8220;Thank you, I love you, I&#8217;m Sorry, Please Forgive me,    </div>
<div>
<div>Thank you, I love you, I&#8217;m Sorry, Please Forgive me,&#8221;</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Replaying it over and over!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have also been saying the Ho&#8217;oponopono Cleansing phrase while</div>
<div>Tapping on the EFT meridian points! </div>
<div>It makes me feel warm, loved, and understood inside!</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>So, now that you know my thoughts on this,</div>
<div>I would love to hear your thoughts on intending or trusting {letting go}!</div>
<div>Whats best for you and can we do both?  Is that possible? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ahead of time, Thank You for your thoughts!!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>~<em>All in all, I think that invoking thought about either is good food 4 thought!</em></div>
<div><em> </em></div>
<div>Cheers to intending to let go!</div>
<div>Many blessings of love from my heart to yours~Valerie</div>
<div>     </div>

<p>It’s a great time to be a Detroit resident! I had heard told, that Detroit would be implementing a recycling Program about a month ago, but assumed that it would be years coming. Well, incredibly enough It starts July 2009! A trial run for 30,000 east and west side Detroiters will take affect in just a couple weeks! I have been concerned with this for a while, and feel very proud of the beautiful innovative city in which I live! Bravo to all that made it possible! Bravo to Jennifer Granholm! A great amount of Michiganders said your vision was to big and entailed to much. I knew that it was possible by the determination in your voice, and I am proud of your leadership and steadfastness, in these times of shift and change! I join parents from around Michigan in saying thank you for relentlessly thinking big! My family and I are ready for this change and prepared to get our hands dirty! The next step is to inspire people around the Motor City to learn and expand on an environmental level! </p>
<p><a href="http://www.ci.detroit.mi.us/Departments/DepartmentofPublicWorks/DetroitRecycles/tabid/2493/Default.aspx">http://www.ci.detroit.mi.us/Departments/DepartmentofPublicWorks/DetroitRecycles/tabid/2493/Default.aspx</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>The goal of the City&#8217;s recycling program is:</p>
<p><strong>To encourage all Detroit residents to reduce, reuse and recycle</strong></p>
<p>Reduce – cut back on materials for disposal; buy products with less packaging; buy only what you need</p>
<p>Reuse – Try to find other acceptable uses for leftover products and items</p>
<p>Recycle – Recycle products or containers if you can</p>
<p>To determine the most cost-effective method of implementing citywide recycling in Detroit by collecting data from a pilot curbside recycling program in two designated areas and from the recycling drop-off locations.</p>
<p>It’s a start, and I am very excited about that!<br />

<div>Good morning from wet and cloudy Detroit MI!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am happy for the rain!  My garden is full of color and life!</div>
<div>Lush green foliage dresses each bloom with love and support!</div>
<div>The rain is wonderful!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As most of you know, I am writing a book about love!  If you are so inclined, please share an <span id="lw_1244489625_0" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed; cursor: hand;">inspirational story</span> about love with me!  Its a quick and easy way to raise your love vibe!  Thanks to everyone else that has been sharing their thoughts and stories about love!  You are the inspiration for the book and I am thankful to have learned and expanded from you!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here are a few things I love about me! </div>
<div>I would love to hear about, what you love about YOU!</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span lang="EN">I love that I inspire parents, to empower kids with <span id="lw_1244489625_1" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed; cursor: hand;">love and understanding</span>! I teach easy to do, and fun to learn Light and Love Parenting Techniques! That is my purpose, and one of my many passions! I also love to take pictures. Texture, color, and emotion make the perfect picture. I love interviewing parents around the world about, what is important to them, and ultimately helping them understand their kids energetic needs. I love teaching <span id="lw_1244489625_2" class="yshortcuts">Emotional Freedom Techniques</span> to children. I really love the expression on their face when they really get it. When they really feel the energy move from block to flow! What a rush! I love that I have complete faith in the future, and the task ahead for humanity. I really love, that I get it! The children born today are born with the knowing that the time is now for change, and they are up to the task. They are ready for conservation, technology, and peace. They are ready for unity and tolerance! I love that I am a poet and author of love and unity!</p>
<p> </p>
<p> <span lang="EN"></span> </p>
<p>May all the love around the world, surround you and keep you today!~Valerie</p>
<p>Out of all that I love about me, I love that I am Anjelica, Quiara, Enzio, London, and Isabella’s mom! I love that I am Scott Blakely’s wife and Gay Hergert’s daughter. I love that Tina {my sister} and Sonya are my best friends and soul buddies!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My intentions are for you to think, feel, and enjoy the love that is gifted to you everyday!  It is one of life&#8217;s finer things, and we are all worthy of it!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><span lang="EN">The Law of <span id="lw_1244489625_3" class="yshortcuts" style="border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed; cursor: hand;">Unconditional Love</span>~ <span style="font-family: Traditional Arabic;"><span style="color: #000000;">The gift of unconditional love will eventually result in spiritual peace and comfort from with in. Unconditional love is not romantic love. It is the acceptance of others as they are without judging or labeling them. It is complete acceptance of others without attempting to change them, except by our own shining example. The law of unconditional love says, &#8220;If you go out of your way to give unconditional love, you will rise above fear, and as you transcend your fears, you automatically open yourself up to the expression of unconditional love.”</span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Olá (Hello in Portuguese) Fabulous <span style="color: #800000;">Parents</span>,</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://universalparent.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/tappy-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-322" title="tappy-1" src="http://universalparent.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/tappy-1-300x61.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="61" /></a></p>
<div> </div>
<div><strong>I hope you have taken a moment today to deeply love and accept yourself!</strong></div>
<div><strong>If not click here,  <a href="http://universalparent.com/eft-to-clear-negative-energy">http://universalparent.com/eft-to-clear-negative-energy</a> I love the way this EFT makes me feel!  I do it everyday!</strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong>A friend ask me if I had any tips on taking <span style="color: #800000; font-size: medium;">Emotional Freedom Techniques</span> {EFT} to a higher level and, I thought others might be asking the same questions.  I put together all the quick little things that I do to <span style="color: #800000; font-size: large;">boost healing power</span> when I do EFT.</strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong>Enjoy EFT daily to heal any emotional or physical pain!   </strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong><span style="color: #800000; font-size: large;">Energy </span></strong>– The fundamental unit of everything in the universe. In metaphysics, these are called superstrings. Everything in the universe is made up of energy vibrating at various frequencies.</div>
<div>&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;&#8220;`</div>
<div>There are a few things that I find rockets EFT to a higher level.</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="font-size: large;"><span id="lw_1242693951_1" class="yshortcuts">Forgiveness</span>, breathing deep long breaths and water, intention, and light and love.</span></strong></span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>When you are doing the first Claiming the Problem statements add forgive myself.</div>
<div>Like this &#8220;Even though I am going through this very painful traumatic thing I deeply love, <span style="color: #800000; font-size: medium;"><strong>forgive</strong></span>, and accept myself.&#8221;</div>
<div>Forgiveness sends a signal loud and clear <span style="color: #800000; font-size: large;"><strong>I AM LETTING GO</strong></span>!<strong> </strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong>By taking <span style="color: #800000;">deep long freeing breaths</span> and drinking <span style="color: #800000;">fresh <span id="lw_1242693951_2" class="yshortcuts">tap water</span></span> you are administrating a double dose </strong><strong>of oxygen.  Water out of the tap is packed full of good healing oxygen and all kinds of healthy minerals.  </strong><strong>I drink tap water before, during, and after I do EFT.  Its like a super boost to the <span id="lw_1242693951_3" class="yshortcuts">energy system</span>.</strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div>Make a passionate out load intention!</div>
<div> </div>
<div><strong><span style="color: #800000; font-size: large;">Intention</span> </strong>– Holding something in mind and devoting to it. Under suitable karmic conditions, it tends to manifest.</div>
<div> </div>
<div><strong><span style="color: #800000; font-size: medium;">&#8220;I intend to feel better about this today!&#8221;</span></strong></div>
<div><strong></strong><span style="color: #800000;"> </span></div>
<div><strong><span style="color: #800000; font-size: medium;">&#8220;I intend to completely let it go and feel good about this!&#8221;</span></strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong><span style="color: #000000;">Lastly, send light and love to your issue!</span></strong></div>
<div><strong>If you need to forgive someone for something send them <span style="color: #800000;">light and love</span> from your heart.</strong></div>
<div><strong>Simply focus on your heart center in a quiet place and, picture the person or problem in </strong></div>
<div><strong>your mind and say</strong></div>
<div><strong>&#8220;I am sending light and love from my heart to &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;.&#8221;</strong></div>
<div><strong>Sending light and love is an energy exchange that allows you to release negative bad energies.</strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong>If you are unfamiliar with the <span style="color: #800000;">EFT tapping points</span> </strong></div>
<div><strong>or want to know <span style="color: #800000;">why EFT works</span> click the link below.</strong></div>
<div><span id="TSRSpan_1" class="TSRSpan"><img class="TSRWebRatingIcon" alt="" width="16" height="16" /></span><a style="background-color: #bdbdbd;" rel="nofollow" href="http://universalparent.com/why-does-eft-work" target="_blank"><span style="color: #800080;">http://universalparent.com/why-does-eft-work</span></a></div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Remember to rate the intensity around the issue 1 to 10. 10 being the worst</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Think about the best possible outcome. What would really be best for you?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Remember that there are many stages in this life and, <strong><span style="color: #800000; font-size: medium;">this to shall pass</span></strong> if you let it. </div>
<div>Don&#8217;t pay it any more attention then it deserves. </div>
<div><strong><span style="color: #800000;">If it doesn&#8217;t feel good then it deserves only the attention it takes to heal.</span></strong></div>
<div><strong></strong><span style="color: #800000;"> </span></div>
<div><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Please let me know if you found this info helpful!</span></strong></div>
