Stones- a Reminise


The Universe sure works in mysterious ways sometimes...

Taking advantage of free time, back in September 2011, I went  to pay homage to the stones carvings and rock altar what  I had found over the last 3 years. When arriving, I went to the shore to sit among the rocks before climbing up the hill to view 'Utter'. Clearing away any energy from me and meditating in the cool September air, many thoughts came to mind. I wondered for an answer to my question of where it is I'm going, what task lay before me now and thanking the Universe for my many blessing/ lessons of the last 10 years.

I noticed then at my feet were several large pieces of blue stone I hadn't seen before. Picking one up to examine I remembered this is quartzite used to make pipe bowl the native called 'peace pipes'. I choose a triangular shaped one for my rock collection and put it in my bag.

   Then, looking up, I could see a man, standing above me on the bluff. What a surprise it was to see him as I thought I was alone there, not being any other cars when I arrived...

 Gathering up my things to start up the hill, I wondered who this person was who stood so quiet and obviously watched me meditate. When I got to the top of the bluff he was still there watching me.

  "Hello there." I said. "How are you this evening?  ” Fine." He told me, all smiles. I didn't recognize him but he did me! "I watch your videos on ‘YouTube’." he said. Sudden shock! I almost fell over remembering the recent one of me showing my toes while sitting in my bath tub, kittens walking the edge of it and lapping up the bath water...

"Really..." I exclaimed. "Yes, I enjoyed the view of Mavilette beach in the wind storm.” he smiled. O God !, I thought. We then went on to exchange names (Norm was his), talk about my potatoes growing (also on YouTube) and our love of the ocean. After I walked up the shore several hundred feet where a kind soul, (he told me his Uncle) had left lawn chairs. I sat in one looking out over the ocean waiting for him to leave so I could do my prayers in privacy.

  Looking out othe ocean,  Lo and behold, there was a schooner sailing on the horizon.I picked up my bionoculars out my bag to get a better look. Then, I looked to see if Norm had noticed it but he was back to me, looking the other direction. I decided not to disturb him ,going back to my observations.After what seemed like hours, He did leave, eventually and I made my way back to where the stone altar was I had found a few weeks before on the shore among the rocks. Taking the steel brush from my bag, I took sea water and scrubbed the paint graffiti from the altar as much as I could. I then said a cleansing prayer, asking for the negativity to be removed from this sacred place. Lying a heart shaped white quartz I had found on the beach on it, I read an offering prayer  to the Universe. The 'Utter' obliged me with a constant booming of gratitude after so long being un-noticed...AND defiled.  I watched the waves beat against the shore rocks, sending large  white foamy crests over them. I listened to the surf, seagulls calling and the sound of my own heart beating together with the cosmic rythumn of nature...feeling the Divine Love of All Creation with-in me. Sitting there watching the waves, I noticed a black harbour porpoise surface. It came to blow many times as I watched there. This gave me a great joy and 'wakening'. I had never seen one so close to shore before! How magic after asking the Universe to guide me

 

Walking back to my car after I went down the twisted path, between the hills of grass and sand. There, sitting among the hills was a white car. O No...I wondered who THAT was. I wondered if they have seen me...

Getting closer I saw it was 'Norm", my 'YouTube' fan.

"Did you find what you were looking for?" .he asked.

My heart jumped. I looked back at him thru the window of his car. I couldn't see any angel wings...
