I just had the pleasure of celebrating my Birthday, Born Day, Solar Return day, the magic moment that I was born, and I awoke to Joy, Gratitude, and Peace. I was so grateful for my breath, my life. I enjoyed my Birthday with love, and I was blessed to attend a Memorial Service, after my Sabbath, of one of my students from Project Brotherhood, His name was Brother Peter Anderson, an extraordinary being of Light, a musician, and artist, and poet, a recovering Alcoholic, who faced his challenges, only to be killed by a reckless driver, but that will never be the end of his story, as he brought so much joy, humor, and music with his presence, it was his essence, and at his repast I understood why, his firm foundation and love of his Elder sisters, His children, and extended family, I shared my experience with them about the last time that I saw him, in November 2024, He was smiling, walking really fast at his age 70, i.e. the Chicago slide, as I would say, joking. People have a essence, his was music, laughter, and Joy, and he will be missed, my last communication with him was, stop rushing, and be care, He was hit in December 2024. I cherished that last moment with him, as the Divine allowed me to see him that day, and share my love with him at that time, and I'm so grateful. I wanted to honor him as my student, and for the Divinity in him, he was extraordinary, some would say, " before his time, as he was a early 60's baby", Vietnam Vet, survivor of War, and Oppression. My old students were my teachers , as they helped me to understand, to be a attentive listener, and to be patience with life, and with myself. Then I had the pleasure of sharing a delicious Korean dinner with my Divine Sister, Beautiful Mermaid Goddess Thumbelina, we arrived at the restaurant, and there was a two hour wait, so we went for a walk in the neighbor, the sky was so beautiful the planet Mars was close to the half moon, and the planet Jupiter was bright in the sky, I felt so grateful, and just enjoyed the moments, it was spectacular, the clear sky, but in Chicago, of course it was cold. Of Course during the wait, I have to tell EVERYONE that it was my Birthday, just to see their reactions, but to entertain myself, and Beautiful Mermaid Goddess Thumbelina, and everyone surrounding us, as I stated two hour wait. We brought some joy to the place, and laughter, after enjoying that meal, we were full, and when I arrived back home, I received the most beautiful heartfelt gift, and original painting of me, I felt so honored, and grateful, it's sometime the creative gifts that really touch the heart, I cried, That didn't minimis the other blessings, as the whole day was full of love, it just effected me differently. I'm so Grateful for the memories!
Respectfully,
Rev. Dr. Goddess Yvette Whorton
