Gov. Spanberger Buddhist Monks Walk for Peace 100 Days

https://www.youtube.com/live/bFVlibHonUE

Today marks the 100th day of their Walk for Peace.

The crowds continue to grow, which gives me hope that perhaps the Venerable Monks will have an everlasting affect upon those who have braved the extreme elements to witness the Walk for Peace pilgrim to WADC.

Their journey has been very powerful. I can't wait for their return to Fort Worth. I am going to welcome them home.

May you be Well, Happy and Peaceful.

Heyo We Won't Be Silent While Our Friends Are Gunned Down

I saw a Philly video on Instagram of the protestors after Rene Good’s murder.

I seen a few from different places. The 1st one was from far away in the back of the crowd. Did a search to find the front of the crowd.

I tried in vain to post them here but it wasn’t working.

This version is different.

Greetings: Tarot Card Interpretation

I’m stumbled upon a tarot card reader recently and I have a question about her cards. She does do readings on the current administration.

She was using the Waite Rider deck and on all the cards that had nudity she sharpied clothes on them.

Now for the question:

Wouldn’t the interpretation lose its meaning because of cards being altered?

I believe it does alter the meaning since the cards are no longer represented by the original interpretation.




This particular video she is not using the Waite deck

Here’s her channel

WALK FOR PEACE: Buddhist Monks walking 2300 miles

I thought I’d bring this to everyone’s attention since this gives me such hope. I hope it will provide you with the same feelings.

The Monks left Fort Worth Texas (my hometown) and are traveling to various state capitols and Walking for Peace. On their way to Houston a truck accidentally rammed into the lead car that hit several Monks, in which one Monk decided to have his leg amputated instead of continuous surgeries. He is recovering and no longer in the hospital.

The other Monks continue their journey along with their companion Aloka the dog from India. Aloka was a stray dog and joined the Monks as they traveled through India. Now Aloka travels across the southern states.

The hopefulness as I watch their daily journey, I’m amazed by people of all walks of life are coming out in support of the Monks and their message of Peace. I am so grateful that the Monks are receiving such love from the communities they are traveling through.

They are currently in Georgia.

Every day write on a piece of paper “Today will be my Peaceful Day”

Sugar Observations ?

I have been noticing the various textures of sugar and was wondering if anyone else has also experienced the same.

I generally use Imperial Brand, but have chosen other brands as well.

First one on my list is powered sugar. I used to love American Buttercream, however, the last time I made it is was so super sweet I couldn't eat it.

Anyone else notice this as well? or Has my tastebuds changed and it just appears sweeter to me?

Second is granulated sugar. I've noticed the grains appear larger. I had to sift some granulated sugar and it has definitely changed texture, while some sugar seemed fine there were extremely large grains they couldn't pass through the strainer.

I love to make Italian Meringue Frosting and Divinity. I made some Meringue last week and the frosting was grainy. I made sure to wash down the sides of the pan to avoid this from happening and yet it didn't matter. Again not edible to me.

Has anyone noticed this with the sugar you use?

Texas Flood: link to a video showing the start of surge to the crest of hwy 480 & hwy 27

I watched this last night start to finish. The videographer was on the Hwy 480 and shows the start of the surge, and how fast it evolved in a very short span of time.

The whole video last 38ish minutes. From start of the surge to the cresting of the bridge. Incredible footage. I believe the bridge is 30 ft above the riverbed.

I think he Gavin might have recorded directly to fb.

Global Infusion Tarot Cards, I know the creator of the cards

I’m promoting one of my friend’s artistic endeavor with the tarot cards he designed. He is originally from Jamaica but now lives here. I met him through the Rosicrucian Order, AMORC. I’m not getting any monetary benefits, just trying to promote a wonderful artist and friend!

Apparently, they are being sold several places, however, I only included us games. But google Global Infusion if you want to shop around.

The other link is someone who wrote about the cards (an excerpt)

Rodney is a Jamaican American painter and illustrator who runs a martial arts studio. As an artist his work is heavily influenced by Rosicrucian mysticism, values of cultural diversity, and what I found throughout the Global Fusion Intuitive Tarot– Taoist metaphysics.
