  12. Love your choices of vibrant colors. Would it not be intriguing to have a child or meet a being that not only has different colored eyes, but is also a kind of chamaeleon changing colors and tones right before your eyes? Peace and love to you!

  19. Dream a multi-colored, multi-dimensional being and you may be surprised at what manifests in your dreams and physical scope of wakened awareness. Remember Einstein said, "imagination is more important than knowledge." We are each invited to discern the truth for ourselves.

I have so much to do but one step at a time. Hugs and hugs for you...I am hoping the radiation is bearable. The lotus flowers are blessing us. Imagine and Live in Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
