Healing in a time of Coronavirus

I have been trying to get my wife to spend a month with me in Mt. Shasta since 2010 when we rented a house near Lake Siskiyou then for a month. Then in 2010 I brought my relatively new 2009 KLR 650 up with me on a rental Uhaul Trailor at that time. I was trying to get movies on my phone of me riding the motorcycle and used dental floss to hold the camera around my neck then which worked sometimes while I took movies of riding from the house we rented to the lake and around that area and up a street my friend lived in closer to the little city of Mt. Shasta nearby.

But, it's been 10 years and it took the craziness of coronavirus for her to finally decide to spend another month in Mt. Shasta with me. This time it's very different because for the first time for some reason she is really experiencing the "PEACE" of Mt. Shasta that you usually don't get in a hotel or most other places.

This time we rented a guest house on a beautiful mountain meadow so finally she is experiencing why people live here for maybe the very first time. So, it's taken 26 years being together and married to get here basically at this point.

Getting away from the suburban lifestyle we live on the coast to a much more rural and country life has been amazing for both of us this time, especially after my almost dying the last couple of years and then finally giving in to the only way left forward for me which is with a defibrillator pacemaker.

So, I'm just getting used to being able to stay alive more than anything else and to realize I might be here 10 or 20 or 30 or more years still.

But, it's exactly what Saint Germain told me in the 1970s when he said:

"If you live to be 100 you will see 500
If you live to see 500 you will see 1000
If you live to see 1000 you will see 5000
If you live to see 5000 you will see 10,000"

Which at the time seemed somewhat impossible and I remember thinking and saying to him:

"I'll Believe it when I see it."

But now, I realize this is now also true of many of us if we are diligent and survive the coronavirus thinning out the human race big time now.

You can see how coronavirus is thinning out anyone not practical and pragmatic enough to deal with the coronavirus on any level.

So, our sojourn to the forests and country and lakes and rivers and mountains of the Mt. Shasta area is saving us both and giving us the peace we need to survive all this now.

By God's Grace
