I’ve always been one who tries the NATURAL WAY first and then will move into something more TRADITIONAL, if I feel I need the support. Often, the natural way takes a bit more time, but for some reason…it works best with my own body. <BR/><BR/><B>*How would I manage this predicament, based on what I already know about these issues...and if I had a chronic pain issue, how would I go about treating that?</B><BR/><BR/>Chronic it a toughie, because it’s always there. But again, I would not only use things such as the alternative modalities that you’re using, but I would also education myself through books, videos, etc…so that I could do some of these things myself, in between having a professional service. Many things such as reflexology , reiki, and aromatherapy, can be easily learned and self-used to help to ease pain.<BR/><BR/><B>*How would I keep my spirits up when my body wants to pull me down?</B><BR/><BR/>For me, whenever I’m down, regardless of what it is…I know that any time I spend within NATURE truly helps my spirit. I’m a big “tree hugger” and get tremendous strength from hugging trees.<BR/><BR/>I can’t thank you enough for asking such a THOUGHT and FEELING provoking question, Linda!<BR/><BR/>Thank you SOOO much.<BR/><BR/>And MANY blessing to you!<BR/><BR/>I’m so glad you and I met!Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15977027331657615697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-26569175492161042202008-11-25T12:33:00.000-05:002008-11-25T12:33:00.000-05:00Good Afternoon Dear Gypsy-Heart!OMG...that's wonde...Good Afternoon <B>Dear Gypsy-Heart</B>!<BR/><BR/>OMG...that's wonderful to hear about your daughter!!!!<BR/><BR/>And yes, I've known quite a few nurses, who have shared that same thing....they experience a lot of special things!!!<BR/><BR/>And YES...agreed!

It was from a cartoon at the time called, Benie and Cecil. About a little boy and his sea serpant. The doll was so neat, because it actually talked. It had a string you could pull from behind his neck!!<BR/><BR/>Anway (and here's the tragic part)<BR/><BR/>When I my mother felt as though I had gotten too old for this doll (I can't remember how old I was)....she gave it to Goodwill or some charity thing.<BR/><BR/>When I found out...I was DEVASTATED!!<BR/><BR/>It's funny...even to this day, I'll rub it in her face that she psychologically SCARRED me for life by doing that!!!<BR/><BR/>She honestly feels terrible about it, but felt like she was doing the right thing.<BR/><BR/>Anyway... I hope whoever got my Benie Boy Doll, still has it and is taking good care of it!<BR/><BR/>HAHAHAHA!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the great question, my Libra Buddy!!!<BR/><BR/>ooooh...and something for me at your place????<BR/><BR/>A Surprise?<BR/><BR/>Ok, listen...I need to answer a few more questions on this post, so I'll be over sometime later afternoon, Ok?<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for your question, Anndi....I LOVED it!!Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15977027331657615697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-61218257939797141492008-11-25T11:15:00.000-05:002008-11-25T11:15:00.000-05:00Aloha again Debi!TOMMY CAN YOU SEE ME???Ha!No, my ...Aloha again <B>Debi</B>!<BR/><BR/>TOMMY CAN YOU SEE ME???<BR/><BR/>Ha!<BR/><BR/>No, my friend...he's not an actor, he's a chief!<BR/><BR/>And damn good one too!<BR/><BR/>Happy Tuesday, Deb!Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15977027331657615697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-54395159372965550972008-11-25T11:11:00.000-05:002008-11-25T11:11:00.000-05:00Good Morning Dearest Gypsy-Heart!First, thank you ...Good Morning <B>Dearest Gypsy-Heart</B>!<BR/><BR/>First, thank you for being patient with waiting for my answer to your question.<BR/><BR/>And what a FABU question it is!<BR/><BR/>I have many dreams, but find it challenging to see myself anywhere specific in ten years, because there are so many dreams (inspirations) that I feel.<BR/><BR/>So I’ll leave that to the Universe.<BR/><BR/>But I will share something with you that I’ve always felt.<BR/><BR/>Missionary work.<BR/><BR/>I see myself working with babies and children who are ill.<BR/><BR/>And I also see myself working with people who are dying.

I know you practice healing modalities, of which I partake of many, however I have never been "healed"...I am wondering, what would you do if you were stricken with an illness that had no cure and no medication to ease it's symptoms long-term and no cure in sight? How would you manage this predicament, based on what you already know about these issues...and if you had a chronic pain issue, how would you go about treating that? Finally, and this is the best part, how would you keep your spirits up when your body wants to pull you down...<BR/><BR/>very brave of you, dear man, for opening yourself up like this and just a little bit wacky, as you definitely seem to be :)L'Adelaidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10725322054223364858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7092603952139807812.post-10481509767619071372008-11-24T22:51:00.000-05:002008-11-24T22:51:00.000-05:00Good Evening Ron, Well, I arrived late, but I very...Good Evening Ron, <BR/><BR/>Well, I arrived late, but I very much enjoyed the questions and your answers. <BR/><BR/>My question would have been about you writing a book, but that has already been asked quite nicely by Miss Jones. I loved your answer and I hope you will pursue it. <BR/><BR/>So I will ask you (besides a book) what dreams are you putting out to the universe?
