Memorial Day Blessings

Memorial Day is not about picnics and barbecues. It is about showing respect to those who have fought and the many that died for our country. With this holiday it is not the war’s we are remembering, instead, we are remembering those who served and those who gave all of their devotion in order to insure that the freedoms that this country offers  would be able to be passed on to the next generations.

There are rows and rows of white tombstones in Arlington National Cemetery. The freedom wall holds 4,048 gold stars at the World War II memorial. Each gold star represents one hundred American Service personnel who died or remain missing in the war. Many names are etched into the granite at the Vietnam Memorial. I offer my heartfelt gratitude to their souls.

Here’s some ground rules for Memorial Day Weekend.

1. Don’t wish me a Happy Memorial day – there isn’t anything happy about brave men and women dying
2. It’s not a holiday or a sale, it’s a Day of Remembrance
3. You want to know the true meaning, visit your local Cemetery or a VA Hospital, not Disneyland or a mall
4. Don’t tell me how great anyone in political power is; tell me about Chesty Puller, George Patton, John Basilone, Dakota Meyer, Kyle Carpenter, Mitchell Paige, and Ira Hayes…
5. Don’t tell me I don’t know what I am talking about; I have carried the burden all too many times for my warriors who now stand their post for God
6. Say a prayer, and then raise a glass and thank god for the men/women who are no longer here

What Memorial Day Means To Me.

I wanted to take a minute and share with everyone the significance of Memorial Day to me.

My father fought in World War Two and his total platoon was killed by the Japanese and he survived because he played dead even though he was shot many times. My father received the Purple Heart, and the Silver Star. I always think of him on Memorial Day.

So this holiday is important to me as I remember what my father went through for me and for others.

I also think of all the young men that I went to school with who went to Vietnam. Some returned and some did not. So many of these young men that I cared for came back broken and did not recover. To top it off they were spat on for serving their country by those who did not support the war. Whether you support the war or not always have respect for those who went into battle to fight for what they believed in and for freedom.

I think of all of the men and women who have lost their lives and sacrificed so much to fight the war on terrorism. We did not ask for this war, but without standing up to terrorists imagine how much more damage could be inflicted on the innocent.

I find it incredibly sad how our veterans are not being taken care of by the government that they served. Friends, let me ask you a question, when was the last time you seen a VET on the street corner in a wheel chair? Twelve % of the Homeless Population consists of Veterans, roughly 67,000 people.  Now, how can this government send money to other countries while ignoring these Vets? How can they say they care while ignoring these Vets, who sacrificed so much for our freedom, that are on the streets? America, wake up.

Whatever you do this weekend take time to pause and give thanks for all that you have due to the sacrifice of so many men and women.

Blessings to all who have served and are serving America,
Cherokee Billie

“Show me a hero and I will write you a tragedy.” F. Scott Fitzgerald

 

On My 66Th Birthday I Give Women Words Of Wisdom To Live By

1. Aspire to be Barbie – the bitch has everything.
2. If the shoe fits – buy them in every color
3. Take life with a pinch of salt… A wedge of lime, and a shot of tequila.
4. In need of a support group? – Cocktail hour with the girls!
5. Go on the 30 day diet. (I’m on it and so far I’ve lost 15 days).
6. When life gets you down – just put on your big girl panties and deal with it.
7. Let your greatest fear be that there is no PMS and this is just your personality.
8. I know I’m in my own little world, but it’s ok. They know me here.

9 Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.

10. Don’t get your knickers in a knot; it solves nothing and makes you walk funny.
11. When life gives you lemons – buy some Coronas.
12. Forget about the perfect man – he’s living in San Fran with his boyfriend.
13. Keep your chin up, only the first 40 years of parenthood are the hardest.
14. If it has tires or testicles it’s gonna give you trouble.
15. By the time a women realizes her mother was right, she has a daughter who thinks she’s wrong.

 

 

Where did the time go?

I turn 66 years of age this week and I cannot believe I am still on this planet.  With all that I have went through physically, emotionally, and spiritually I am amazed that I’m still here. Everyone tries to tell me that I have some special purpose for being here, but I think I’m just a stubborn bitch who refuses to give up.

Looking back over my life I had some good times.  I have incredibly fond memories of my parents, my first love, going to concerts and hockey games and mingling with the rich and famous.

Unfortunately when I hit my early thirties my health really deteriorated.  What I’m most grateful for is the fact that I’ve been able to help and inspire people no matter what my situation has been.

I would like to thank all of you in your support of my efforts in reaching out to people from all walks of life to encourage and enlighten them on their path.  I’m grateful that the work that I have been doing has helped people that I do not even know. It takes a lot of work to do social media every day, but I receive messages from people telling me that I have changed their life even though we have never spoken. There are days when I’m so sick or in so much pain that I do not feel like working on the Internet, but these messages, from people like you, keep me inspired and I know that I’m helping others.

People think that because you are doing spiritual work everything in your life should be perfect, but that’s not always the case. Many other spiritual workers have written to me telling me that they find themselves having illness and not sure how to proceed in their spiritual work feeling like they are somehow a failure. Everything happens for reason and I believe in my particular case that the hardships that I go through have been for the refining of my soul. I would never have known who I really was if life had been easy for me.

I thought of highlighting some of the key moments in my life.

Having the security of my parents
Seeing the Beatles live
Falling in love the first time
Seeing my first National Hockey League Game
Seeing Jimi Hendrix live
Living on my own
Getting married the first time
Becoming chronically ill at the age of 23
Getting divorced the first time
The loss of my little Parakeet Tweety
Getting married the second time
Getting divorced the second time
Finding metaphysics
Getting my Bachelor’s of Science Degree
Obtaining my Naturopathic Degree
Working clinically as a Naturopathic
The death of my mother
The loss of my dog Lady
Falling and injuring my hips
Becoming bedridden
The death of my father
Losing my father’s business
Having faith in The Creator
Practicing metaphysics
Writing my book
Being a Spiritual Advisor
Fighting Negative Spirits
Being an inspiration to others without trying
Having my adopted son, Rene, in my life
Losing my precious Isis

These seem to be the key moments in my life. Of course there’s so much more to one’s life, but I’m not sure what all to say. If you want to know the details of my life check out my book, ‘Heavenly Seduction.’

I do want to thank those of you who have followed me over the years and contributed to some special moments in my life. I thank all of my clients who I have taught and have taught me.

I am grateful to everyone that has used my services privately. As a small business person this recession has really hit my business tremendously. The feedback that I receive tells me that I have helped people on their path and given them direction.

I’m grateful that the work that I have been doing has helped people that I do not even know. I receive messages from people telling me that I have changed their life even though we have never spoken. That is a wonderful legacy to leave behind. If you find that the work that I have done over the years is of benefit to you please make a donation to keep my website up and my business running. This is a spiritual ministry and I depend upon your support by using my services or your donations to keep doing the work that I love and that helps so many.  Click Here to donate.   Any amount of support will be appreciated.

Remember our time on this planet goes quickly so make the most of everyday.  Keep spreading love and light and you will be changing the world!

This quotation from the song by Frank Sinatra I feel pretty much sums up my life. “Let the record show I took the blows and did it my way.”

Happy Mother’s Day Wishes!

Wishing ALL the beautiful.. hardworking.. dedicated.. sexy.. generous and loving moms (and grandmas) living and in spirit a fabulous Mother’s Day! Also, to would be mothers who are enjoying the life that grows within them. For all of the mothers of fur, feathered, fin, and reptile babies’ thank you for taking care of these wonderful creatures.

My mother is in spirit and I look forward to the time that we’re reunited. Thank you for everything you gave me Mama.

I am grateful for my fur baby Tigre.  She brings me so much happiness with her sweet spirit.

I was thinking of the ladies that never had children and have wanted to. There is a wonderful chapter in the Bible that speaks about women who never had children and how they will have more children because of their spiritual work. This has always been very comforting to me as I never had children.

Isaiah 54:1-5 “Sing, O barren, you that did not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, you that did not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, said the LORD.

Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of your habitations: spare not, lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes;

For you shall break forth on the right hand and on the left; and your seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

Fear not; for you shall not be ashamed: neither be you confounded; for you shall not be put to shame: for you shall forget the shame of your youth, and shall not remember the reproach of your widowhood any more.

For your Maker is your husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and your Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.”

In my life I have found this passage to be very true. Never feel that you are alone, remember that so many people out there need what you have to offer. Never underestimate you. Use your gifts and you’ll be amazed at how many spiritual children you will have.

For all of You Mothers may your day be blessed with love, beauty, and compassion. Never forget how special you are!

Many blessings to all Mothers,
Cherokee Billie

I Leave You With This Beautiful Story About Mothers.

A baby asked God, “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?”

“Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”

The child further inquired, “But tell me, here in heaven I don’t have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.”

God said, “Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel’s love and be very happy.”

Again the child asked, “And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don’t know the language?”

God said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.”

“And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?”

God said, “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”

“Who will protect me?”

God said, “Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life.”

“But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore.”

God said, “Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to you.”

At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, “God, if I am to leave now, please tell me my angel’s name.”

“You will simply call her, ‘Mom.”

May is Fibromyalgia Awareness Month

May 12 is the designated Fibromyalgia Awareness Day. Throughout the month of May please share awareness about Fibromyalgia.

Several years ago Fibromyalgia was a disability categorized as “psychological”. Now it is recognized as a very real physical condition that affects every aspect of a person’s life.

It’s hard to understand how it feels to be told you are mentally having a problem when your body will not perform what you are asking it to do. How can that possibly be mental? Patients were, in effect, being told it was “all in your head.” I went through this with people I knew once I became unable to function because of Fibromyalgia. Everyone wants to tell you that you just need to get up and do something and you will feel better. They don’t understand you barely have the strength to make it to the bathroom and back. It is often hard to get emotional support from your family and friends.

Fortunately, the medical field has produced enough research to re-classify it as a true physical disability that is often paired with studies and treatments for arthritis and rheumatism. No longer can people say that it is in your head.

Here is a brief list of common symptoms of this disease:

• Chronic pain throughout the body
• Burning, numbness and tingling
• Tenderness when pressure is placed on or around the neck, elbows, hips, thighs and knees.
• Sleep disorders
• Chronic fatigue or exhaustion
• Depression
• Anxiety
• Facial Pain
• Jaw Pain (TMJ)
• Memory Loss
• Irritable Bowel
• Tension or Migraine Headaches
• High sensitivity to foods and medications (allergic type reaction).
• Minimal tolerance to heat and cold
• High sensitivity to bright lights and sounds
• Hair Loss

Because symptoms develop gradually, this disease is often misdiagnosed. Based on the American College of Rheumatology a person is diagnosed with Fibromyalgia when he or she suffers pain throughout the body for at least three months and has 11 out of 18 tender points presen

Fibromyalgia basically means pain in the muscles, tendons and ligaments. It affects mostly women and up to 4% of the general population. CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS

People with FMS have the additional stress and frustration in their lives of trying to explain (all the time) why today they can do almost anything and the next day they can barely get out of bed. Depression is a frequent side-effect of FMS and who can question it? Living with a body-wide toothache-like pain constantly is something only fellow sufferers can truly understand.

My prayers go out to everyone who is affected by this condition as I understand it well having lived with it for over 43 years. Please spread the word and let the world know about Fibromyalgia.

Remember millions of people worldwide suffer from Fibromyalgia. They lose their independence, their lives, and often their family. Raise your awareness and support those with invisible illnesses.
