<br />
My dearest, most wonderful, <a href="http://wwww.oshunspirity.com/" target="_blank">Oshun Spirit</a> customer friends ~<br />
<br />
I am thankful each day when I see the work you are doing to positively transform our world and create cleaner, greener, kinder, and more sustainable communities. I honor your commitment to using natural wellness and personal care products and services, and your dedication to learning how to heal yourself and our world with intention, compassion, and your heartfelt blessings.<br />
<br />
You have inspired me to use my life wisely, to boldly live my truth, and to create, innovate, and serve. And, together we have created and sustained The Earthkeepers project which supports efforts to transform children’s daily lives through connections with nature and the indigenous, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
multi-cultural teachings of the Web of Life.<br />
<br />
We know that our shared work is already helping to counteract some of the greatest challenges facing children today. These include educational systems and households facing extraordinary pressures: poverty, homelessness, food insecurity, attention difficulties, obesity, declining creativity, anxiety and depression, and a deep disconnection from the wonders of the natural world.<br />
<br />
<b>Research shows that regular time in nature...</b><br />
• Facilitates better social and physical development<br />
• Improves fitness, motor-skills and well-being<br />
• Supports creativity and imaginative play<br />
• Inspires collaboration and reduces violence and bullying<br />
• Reduces stress<br />
• Creates feelings of empathy for nature — the first step toward developing the next generation of environmental stewards.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
The Earthkeepers program has created resources for young people, based on research of modern and ancient wisdom, that are designed to support this vital work. Once a program way ahead of its time, Earthkeepers now is regarded as an important and necessary intervention component in the community where it has been tested. And so, as our grant funding comes to an end, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been blessed with the opportunity to become a district employee</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with the ability to maintain and grow the program.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<b>So yes, that forest up there is my new home!</b> </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">It is a magical place born in the imagination of children with open minds and open hearts. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Children who know that they are perfectly special, amazingly capable, and resiliently hopeful. Children who believe they are going to change the world, in fact, they have already impacted their community in many positive ways.</span> Your support mattered. It still matters...<br />
<br />
So, what I'm finally able to say is this: It's time for me to return to my roots at Oshun Spirit; specifically by offering intuitive arts services and the very best, carefully crafted, potent products. I'll offer seasonal goodies, and continue to create high frequency gemstone and botanical fusions whenever inspiration insists in manifestation; meanwhile I'd like to clear out the inventory on hand and take the spring to redesign the website and improve your shopping experience. <br />

prayer is that this year we to come to be known as the great givers,

and not be consumed by only our own. May we be lovers of truth, joy,
peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and
self-control. <a href="https://sites.google.com/a/govwentworth.k12.nh.us/ndsearthkeepers/" style="-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; color: #2baadf; font-weight: normal; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">May we make a difference in this world.</a> May we reflect our peace and hope to a world that so desperately needs our presence and healing.</div>

<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica neue,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Because
of you, we have been blessed with the opportunity to do the work that
truly feeds kid's souls and elevates their potential as conscious
co-creator inhabitants of Earth. Open hearts and inquisitive minds
grounded in the web of life and stewardship of our precious natural
resources - this is your gift to the world. Thank you!<br />
<br />
The Earthkeepers are children in grades 1 - 6 who are part of an <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/NDSearthkeepers" style="-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; color: #2baadf; font-weight: normal; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">after school program for kids in-need.</a> These unlikely heroes have created a butterfly garden, an outdoor </span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">classroom
in the forest, and a buddy bench on the playground to spread kindness
and an appreciation of nature at their school. They have created a
school-wide culture of inclusion and friendship. Their message is
resonating across all boundaries. All, because of you!</span></span></div>
<div style="-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; color: #202020; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; line-height: 150%; margin: 10px 0; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; padding: 0; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: arial,helvetica neue,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">A
few weeks ago I mentioned to an Oshun Spirit customer-friend that this
winter, it would be nice for Earthkeepers to have dry pairs of mittens
to put on for their “outside time” after school. I imagined a forging a
connection with resident knitters in a nearby assisted living facility.
"Warm Hearts, Warm Hands." I only needed the funds to buy yarn and
materials. An Oshun Spirit Earth Angel donated these funds before I
could even finish my next sentence. Today, joyful knitters are helping
these children, and the children are loving giving the knitters the
opportunity to share their talents, connect, feel valued, and give the
gift of love. Personal notes and <a href="https://sites.google.com/a/govwentworth.k12.nh.us/ndsearthkeepers/classroom-news/earthkeeperssaythankyouwithgratituderocks" style="-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; color: #2baadf; font-weight: normal; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">"gratitutide rocks"</a>
have been exchanged and the knitting has begun. And so have amazing
friendships between the young ones and the elders, as it should be!<br />
<br />

importance of nature education for kids today. When you donate crystals
for land art, and ribbons for weaving, provide computers or <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/NDSearthkeepers" style="-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%; -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; color: #2baadf; font-weight: normal; mso-line-height-rule: exactly; text-decoration: underline;" target="_blank">cash</a>, or simply appreciate the resilient spirit in these kids and hold hope for our world - you change the world - for the better. <strong>All I can say is, "thank you!"</strong></span></span></div>

<br />
I am reaching out to all of my wonderful customer friends. As many of
you know, I have been working with homeless, educationally
disadvantaged and at-risk kids for many years, employing the teachings
of gratitude, service, connection to the web of life and its/our healing
of which you all are very familiar.<br />
<br />
We know that children need
to practice caring for others and expressing gratitude for those who
care for them and contribute to others’ lives. Studies show that people
wh<span class="text_exposed_show">o are in the habit of expressing
gratitude are more likely to be helpful, generous, compassionate, and
forgiving—and they’re also more likely to be happy and healthy. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="text_exposed_show">
I have been given a unique opportunity - that is to open "The
Earthkeepers Enrichment Center" within the walls of an elementary school
in New Hampshire. I am so close to making this happen. Your support
means so much to me. This can be a model for the future of mainstream
enrichment for kids around the globe.<br />
<br />
We don’t make children happy when we simply enable them to be receivers
of kindness. We escalate their feelings of happiness, improve their
well-being, reduce bullying, enrich their friendships, and build peace
by teaching them to be givers of kindness. We can bring
about a more peaceful, kind and healthy world for us all by making this enrichment program as mainstream as art, music and physical education in our schools. <br />
<br />
If you’ve helped spread the
word about my project to potential supporters, thank you! If you
haven’t, please consider forwarding my campaign link to others and
sharing my campaign with your friends on Facebook. If you can make a
financial contribution, I thank you with all my heart and soul.<br />
<br />
<span data-ft="{"tn":"K"}"><span class="UFICommentBody">Learning
to be caring is like learning to play a sport or an instrument. Daily
repetition makes caring - for the Earth and for each other - second
nature. Learning gratitude similarly involves regularly practicing it. There's no better place than right at school! Let's do this!</span></span> <br />

<br />
As many of you know, I run workshops and programs both online and locally, for children and adults. Earth Keepers is an after school enrichment program which I have been able to offer to educationally disadvantaged kids in grades 1 - 6 thru a partnership with the Libby Museum of Natural History.<br />
<br />
As a culminating activity, the Earth Keepers would like to create a Butterfly Garden at New Durham Elementary School, in New Durham NH. I am personally overseeing this project, and I am asking you for your support. We only need to raise funds for materials. 100% of your donation will go to <span class="field" data-blank="Enter an informative description for your fundraiser, this should provide any details or links for more information about the cause" data-field="description">landscape timbers, rocks, stepping stones, topsoil, fertilizer, compost, seeds, and plants. </span><br />
<br />
<span class="field" data-blank="Enter an informative description for your fundraiser, this should provide any details or links for more information about the cause" data-field="description">If we can, we will include landscape elements such as a rock grouping, solar powered fountain, and benches in a reading nook to enhance the garden landscape. We will create a small Butterfly Garden library in the school media center and enjoy a school-wide dedication celebration.</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div align="left">
In recent days I have been preparing a program that I taught to teens about a decade ago for a younger audience. I came across this list and found my program outline within it. The Native American culture is highly spiritual and
places a great emphasis on the respect for Mother Earth, Father Sky,
Grandfather Sun and Grandmother Moon as well as all living and
non-living objects. Perhaps in reading this you will find guidelines for your next endeavor as well... may you be blessed!</div>

<strong>1. Rise with the sun to pray</strong>. Pray alone. Pray often. The Great Spirit will listen, if you only speak.<br />
<strong>2. Be tolerant of those who are lost on their path</strong>. Ignorance, conceit, anger, jealousy and greed stem from a lost soul. Pray that they will find guidance.<br />
<strong>3. Search for yourself, by yourself</strong>. Do not allow others to make your path for you. It is your road, and yours alone. Others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you.<br />
<strong>4. Treat the guests in your home with much consideration</strong>. Serve them the best food, give them the best bed and treat them with respect and honor.<br />
<strong>5. Do not take what is not yours whether from a person, a community, the wilderness or from a culture</strong>. It was not earned nor given. It is not yours.<br />
<strong>6. Respect all things that are placed upon this earth – whether it be people or plant.</strong><br />
<strong>7. Honor other people’s thoughts, wishes and words</strong>. Never interrupt another or mock or rudely mimic them. Allow each person the right to personal expression.<br />
<strong>8. Never speak of others in a bad way</strong>. The negative energy that you put out into the universe will multiply when it returns to you.<br />
<strong>9. All persons make mistakes</strong>. And all mistakes can be forgiven.<br />
<strong>10. Bad thoughts cause illness of the</strong> mind, body and spirit. Practice optimism.<strong> </strong><br />
<strong>11. Nature is not for us, it is a part of us</strong>. They are part of your worldly family.<br />
<strong>12. Children are the </strong>seeds of our future. Plant love
in their hearts and water them with wisdom and life’s lessons. When
they are grown, give them space to grow.<br />
<strong>13. Avoid hurting the hearts of others</strong>. The poison of your pain will return to you.<br />
<strong>14. Be truthful at all times</strong>. Honesty is the test of ones will within this universe.<br />
<strong>15. Keep yourself balanced</strong>.
Your Mental self, Spiritual self, Emotional self, and Physical self,
all need to be strong, pure and healthy. Work out the body to strengthen
the mind. Grow rich in spirit to cure emotional ails.<br />
<strong>16. Make conscious decisions as to who you will be and how you will react</strong>. Be responsible for your own actions.<br />
<strong>17. Respect the privacy and personal space of others</strong>. Do not touch the personal property of others, especially sacred and religious objects. This is forbidden.<br />
<strong>18. Be true to yourself first</strong>. You cannot nurture and help others if you cannot nurture and help yourself first.<br />
<strong>19. Respect others religious beliefs.</strong> Do not force your belief on others.<br />
<strong>20. Share your good fortune with others</strong>.

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TWmmZ_2woi4/VKmbWVPWVeI/AAAAAAAABSQ/BZrWsTASk68/s1600/teaching.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TWmmZ_2woi4/VKmbWVPWVeI/AAAAAAAABSQ/BZrWsTASk68/s1600/teaching.jpg" height="214" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Once upon a time, this painting changed my life. I call it an "aha moment."<br />
<br />
Back in 1999, I was teaching a program that I created called "Ancient Ways" in collaboration with the New Hampshire Teen Institute, NH Court Diversion/Juvenile Justice, and our local Mental Health providers. It was good stuff, teaching the ancient ways to young people - watching them sprout and blossom, grow mighty wings, and fly with great confidence. Heal. Thrive. Live. Give!<br />
<br />
As Ancient Ways became noticed and noteworthy I became a program director and then the executive director of several non profits. Within a few years time I wrote similar programming for other agencies, traveled, gave lectures, presentations, workshops, wrote grants, crunched numbers, and I got further and further away from what I really wanted to do - teach the program.<br />
<br />
This image - of a teacher and her students connected to the body and
spirit of nature and watched over by the ancestors, both human and non -
is my good friend. Over the years it has hung on the walls of my
classrooms, in meditation rooms, and at a holistic health center. But it was in the Reiki healing room of a local youth center when it really spoke to me.<br />
<br />
As a good friend often does, it reminded me to take a moment to breathe when I began to wonder just what the hell I
was doing... and why. It was while I was gazing at this artwork on that one day, exhausted and unfulfilled, that I stopped the madness.<br />
<br />
14 years pass quickly.<br />
<br />
I found my old friend several weeks ago, after its long absence from my daily awareness, carefully wrapped and tucked away in a box marked 2001 program materials. I was rooting around in the box because I have gone back to teaching a few local programs, and I needed some notes.<br />
<br />
As I picked it up, I had another "aha moment." Truth chills and a long exhale.<br />
<br />
Hello Old Friend! <br />
<br />
It's time to get back to the work I was intended to do. Trust the Universe. Invite the students. Teach the Ancient Ways. I hung the painting on the wall of my office, set my intention, and placed my phone on the table below it. It rang.<br />
<br />
Happy New Year - it's going to be a great one!<br />
May we all be blessed,<br />
Susan<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Of course we say there is ABSOLUTE right and absolute wrong.<br />
For instance, "Thou Shall Not Kill" is a basic value.<br />
Right?<br />
<br />
Right. Unless you want to... win a war.<br />
<br />
It would seem that human values are a moveable feast, depending on who you are and what you want at any given time. So then, how is peace even possible while we are busy attacking each other's religious and cultural values? The stakes are really high today. <br />
<br />
I think it may come down to one basic idea - one that we need to chew on for a moment. It's a bitter bite, because no one is going to come out with the winning judgement. And it feels so good to be right, and on the winning side, I know. But at what cost? We're going to need to open our hearts and quiet our minds - and suspend our trigger-happy judgements for a brief moment of reflection. <br />
<br />
Here it is: No one does anything innapropriate - given their model of the world.<br />
<br />
And we say, "but brutally killing innocent people - now that is very inappropriate!"<br />
<br />
And I agree. And I am so very sad that any human being would behave in this way. I do not understand why we choose to feel so separate from all of Creation, and each other - still.<br />
<br />
But, I do understand that all attacking is seen by the attacker as a defense, and realizing this may just be the be the crack that lets the light in, and opens a view to peace. If not only in my heart and life, maybe in yours as well. If I can really chew on it long enough to break it down and hold the vibe of understanding maybe, I can suspend my judgements just long enough to begin to imagine new ways of living together peacefully on this planet. Maybe you can, too!<br />
<br />
Right and wrong are value judgements depending on what we want to accomplish. Even "Thou Shall Not Kill" or "All Men are Created Equal", or "Freedom" can (and will) be disregarded if we need to defend other values. Truly, everyone that wages war does so believing that they are defenders of something valuable, not attackers, at all. From nations, right down to engagement with family members, and co-workers...<br />
<br />
When we see ourselves as one body, called the body of Humanity, we can also see that there is nothing to defend. In the human body, the blood and muscles and bones are very different expressions of the DNA, but work in harmony to to move the body forward. They do not defend their differences. They do not attack each other to get more nutrients, more oxygen, more more.<br />
<br />
No part is judged as more or less valuable in the business of walking. Of moving forward.<br />
<br />
May we walk toward peace with an open heart. With understanding. Without the need to defend, or attack. As John Lennon wrote - "nothing to kill or die for."<br />

OMG... I have not written a meaningful blog post in a year. Once upon a time, I took every Sunday morning to write, or study, or meditate on the beach. For the past year I have had client appointments most Sunday mornings, or spent this time printing labels and packing orders to get a head start on Monday morning, when my appointments will begin at 6 am. Some Sundays I even go to brunch with friends who complain they never see me...<br />
<br />
Bangboom - I'm back. This is my year of "commitment." On August 22, I married Bob (after 18 years of his lovely persistence - talk about commitment...). I turned 55 years old on September 11, and at my birthday celebration I was asked what my wish was for this year.<br />
<br />
"I want to get back to writing," I said. "I have a book in me and it's time to get it out."<br />
<br />
My friends encouraged me and applauded the idea. "You SHOULD have done THAT years ago."<br />
(I should have married Bob years ago too, but that is another onion to peel.)<br />
<br />
"I don't even blog anymore," I lamented.<br />
<br />
"SO START."<br />
<br />
It was an order - from the Universe - disguised as friendly reassurance. But I know the Goddess' voice when she speaks to me. And, I know - that the Fool who does NOT answer the Call the first time, will be called upon again - and that the journey will be a bit trickier for the hesitation...<br />
<br />
And so... I make the commitment to get back to my book and to blog about the journey - knowing full well the potential hero in this chapter of my life is me - and not the protaganist that will spring to life on the pages to come.<br />
<br />
The Goddess is a trickster in what she inspires - it was a the lovely place to have a wedding ceremony... and is a divine setting in which to write. Thank you Bob. Thank you Oshun. Thank you Life.<br />
