Welcome to the blog Vicki's View. I tossed around the name over and over and realized I can only speak from my view and while it may not be an other's view, it is mine and I've put plenty of attention into being good with my view and while always open to a new vista, I'm good with where I am and what I know right now!

I hope you enjoy it and join me in enjoying the view, whatever and wherever yours is.

This posting comes at a time that is pretty significant to our country. Memorial day weekend has many meanings. For some it is a complete celebration of those who have served in the military or in any sort of conflict or war. For others it is an opportunity for a day off and still for others, it is a regular work day and may not have any significance other than that. What I would like to propose, and what is my view, is, it is all good. However you see it, it is good. If we honor that in others, there is a freedom that comes from more than what our country offers.

I am so grateful to be in this country, in this universe and in my world at this time. It is the freedom of all of the mover and shakers that allows me to even have a view and I am greatly appreciative of that. I also accept that I am responsible for any movement and happiness in my life and those movers and shakers have to be me! That is powerful.

If the freedom of having my own view and allowing others to have theirs is the vehicle, the power of being responsible for self is the gasoline, or electric charge, or vegetable oil, whatever is your fuel of choice.

If you've read my newsletters before you know that I often offer a challenge. The challenge today is to find your vehicle,  your  allowing others to have their own view, then add the fuel, the knowing that you are in charge of wherever you go with your own view, and then go for a ride. Try the new energy on and be excited about all the power it has and the ability to move that it provides because if you aren't willing to change your own view, you will be stuck and stuck rarely feels good.

On that note I have to pass along what I have learned from those who have crossed either in service or after having been in what we believe to be the service.....let it go. It being the grief surrounding their passing. There has never been an energy that has come through who has passed in the line of duty that has expressed anything but awe for where they are. When I ask them about their service they point me to what is going on today in our universe, what is applicable in this moment because you see, they have moved on from that physical experience and while may still be able to talk of it, they aren't holding the negative aspects of it, why are you? Be proud they served, most definitely. Be honored to have known them...without a doubt but please don't diminish their lives with your pain because I promise you, they are good!

The other thing they often point out is to honor those that are in service in other ways as well. Perhaps the person packing your groceries, perhaps the person working behind the scenes of all the manufacturing companies or farms or schools or medical establishments. Maybe it is the person who comes in at night to clean these places so they are shiny when everyone else arrives. Maybe it is the engineer who just can't get the feeling that something didn't line up on that blueprint and goes back again and again to figure out what the safety flaw may be. We may never know of all of the parts that make the whole, but being appreciative for the person is what matters and that is often what is relayed to me and to their loved ones in a reading.

I have learned so much from those who have crossed about living this life. It is meant to be fun, it is meant to be of service both to self and others and it is meant to be a path to acceptance of every person's path being individual. Every view having importance, especially to the person offering it and every choice an individual one and isn't that amazing?

This Memorial Day you will not see me at a parade, nor will I be at a picnic relishing in my day off...I will be mowing my lawn,reading a book, hopefully enjoying sunshine while saying my thanks to those who have served and their families who supported them while they served and honoring myself and my view that how I wish to spend my day is just great. I'm not saying there won't be marshmallows, because there might...I have to leave room to change my view at any time because that is what life is and that is just stinking fun!

Loving the view from here,
Vicki
