My 1st Historical Cemetery Walk 2012

On Saturday 26th of May, I had my first cemetery walk with about a dozen participants here in Yarmouth. We were lucky enough to have the privlage of viewing the beautiful stone chapel built in 1921 by Mr David Ritchie. After that, we walked thru the lovely kept grounds viewing the lovely old stone markers and taking in the large elm,chestnut and beech trees planted there almost 200 years ago.
I'm planning another walk on July 21st at another local cemetery. I know everyone attending last weekend will take part. If your in the area, please contact me on my facebook Spiritual Readings with Beverly Wells-Pinkney to be added to the contact list : )

I wanted to share a shot I took at a local beach .Its a regular hang-out and I love the salty air, seagulls and local ground hog who hang out with me there : )

The Third Jesus

I've been on a study mission lately with Christianity. I decided to join my local Wesleyan Church in January of this year as a means of reaching out in my spirituality. The people there are very friendly and I love the way they made me feel at home with them. Something important to me ♥ Studying the bible has always been one of my passions...finding meaning in the parables to other aspects of my existence as a simple woman.



Jesus is probably the most misunderstood teacher of the last 2 aeons. His teachings, plus the bible in general, have been used to cause wars, separation from loved ones, famines and extinction of any other religion on the planet. I tend, though, to except 'his word' with my own interpretation...the bible has been re-written SOOOOO many times we may never know what was originally there. Some parts/parables were meant for examples of what not to do I Am sure! I've read the same quote on-line in many versions and it changes text plus loses meaning by the words used. : (



I recently read a book called 'The Third Jesus' written by Deepak Chopra. It was very interesting on his interpretation of Jesus’ New Testament parables. I would recommend for anyone of any religion to read : )

Another rainy day...its times like this I love to take time to reflect the past...I've been looking thru old diaries,surfing the net,sipping tea ,occasinally stopping to work on my poem for the up-coming Pairings event in June at the Yarmouth Musuem when a phrase hits my tea sogged brain. This will be my third year attending this event. ☼
I'm surprised when reading thru my 7 year old journals how much things can change. Writing has become a part of my being it seems. I've already written many short stories for the printer and found a suitable publisher...now for that cash to finish the project! Of course, my better 'half' would love to torment and give this to me ♥ I keep saying ,"be patient"...not my best trait...someone will die first...no applause needed or legs broken...
I've always been a stickler for details...analyzing everything is typical to my birth sign of Aries with a naughty Virgo Moon. : )

I've been listening lately to the quiet out-side my windows at night. The Spring peepers sing me to sleep after meditation, promising of warmer weather soon!

Ahhh...my favorite time of year...the weather is starting to warm, the grass is greening, and the quartz crystals are starting to wash a shore here in South-West Nova Scotia. Did I say Quartz Crystals???! Yes I did! Here is a sample of one I found this morning on my daily beach walk. I can't wait to drive on Sunday to my favorite beach haunt. These babies are scare as hen's teeth but oooooh so lovely to find . Love's U and thanks U, Universe! ♥

Sand Beach, Yarmouth, Nova Scotia

I took time this morning to walk one of my child-hood haunts. Sand beach was a regular place myself and my cousins visited as children We would walk on warm days to play in the water and sand eating our peanut-butter sandwiches with bottles of pop bought at Ernie's Grill on the way. There were sand dunes there then...and we would slid down them on our bellies, laughing loudly in the warm sand. How I wish I could go back and appriecate them more now...Its sad to walk there now and look at the litter, remains of a oil spill that happened back in the '60's and watch the people ride around on their 4-wheelers, not noticing the wild life abounding there...: ( On the low tide, you can walk across the stone 'bar' and visit a huge rock in the harbour. This was always a fasination to us and we loved to sit in the little island watching the fishing boats pass to the Yarmouth Wharf.I hope people will visit there and help pick up the trash so it will once again be beautiful ♥ How the beach should look...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9_FAa3mQFc
