  • Exit Sign Leads to Entrance Sign

    entrance-sign-with-treeI spent a couple of hours last night uploading my beach and  Butterfly World to a video format Please forgive me if this post is long. I sense I am in a culmination of a long process that will lay the groundwork for some of my future posts. So I hope it makes sense. If not I will try to clarify as time goes by. It has taken me seven years to understand intense inner processes only because I chose to find answers to all my inner questions about the meaning of life and death. I know I will never understand everything and the more I know and understand, the more questions I have and the less I really know.I am constantly humbled by the majesty of this greater force we call God.

    Anyway, I was taking some pictures on Monday as I headed out to pick up my son at school before I went to the beach. I had been taking pictures in sequence of part of a shopping center that had been knocked down in order to build a new structure. Then on the way home, I took pictures of the location where I had my car accident almost seven years ago. That exit on the highway also has been rebuilt. I see it every time I have carpool and take the kids to school. (more…)

  • Invisible Angels…Visible Results

    clouds-like-angels1I read in the Miami Herald today that the six month descent in the economy appears to be leveling off.  It has been a 1 1/2 year descent being in the line of fire as a realtor.  My video of the triathlon gives me the imagerythat there is a finish line as long as you persist. All in all, it has been a great experience in a weird way.

    After seeing all the butterflies yesterday in Butterfly World, I hope I can come out of this phase soon and start flittering about again. A transformation has definitely happened again because I followed my main motto: Let Go, Let God. I follow it to the letter now. This has helped me to be kind of like a butterfly. I have been learning all kinds of new ways to work so I can hopefully write full time in the near future. I’m learning the internet mechanisms and all this wordpress blogging, plugins etc. If you look at a butterfly in action, it has major ADD. It does not sit still, except when it is laying its eggs. Then it’s off to another flower. (more…)

  • Sparky at the Veterinarian For a Cast

    Sparky Before Cast

    I know I said I would post the next day, but hey, I am still on vacation. I have been good to myself by not pressuring myself to do anything in particular. I have allowed this week to go with the flow. 

    On Tuesday, I had an appointment with a third veternarian as a final attempt to heal Sparky’s wound. The official diagnosis is Acral Lick Granuloma. He had a small wound that became a very big wound about six inches long.  As you can see from the picture on the left here, he is not too thrilled that I am going to leave him here all day.

    It becomes a compulsive licking that they end up going to the bone. I have been very distressed about it and finally with the help of this veternarian, he put on a cast. It is a temporary cast to see if he will not chew it off. They are dermotological specialist. I am thankful that my brother referred me to them. (more…)

  • More Friends that I Love..and A Bride to Be

    The Bride to Be and Future Husbandangie-and-group 
    After going to the beach at Matheson Hammock on Monday, I went to a bridal shower for
    Alejandra. I got there about two hours  late because I was not thinking of time while at the beach. Timelessness is a good thing especially when on vacation. Better late than never.

    One of my best friend’s was giving the shower. I made the intention that Angie, who is single have a shower within 18 months. So when the picture on the right was taken, we had just put the intention that Angie open her heart to receive someone to love her. I love Angie and she is a beautiful girl who has alot to give. Good luck Ale and Laz. I wish you all the love in the world.

  • Spending Time with People I Love

    I had put the intention that I wanted to be with people I love this week. With all my time focused almost 24/7 in the past months restructuring my real estate business, I have had hardly any time to spend with friends. I do see my immediate family, but that is about it. After the Triathlon I went to see my goddaughter who is a delicious five year old ball of energy. I spend the day at the pool with her and her father. And it turns out that her father wants to buy a property. And tonight I got a call from someone that I hadn’t heard from in a long time and said he wanted to buy a commercial property. Cristian said I should take vacations more often!

    I have been mainly focused on getting bank listings because of my fear of having other deals fall apart like they have in the past two years because of overextended mortgages(potential short sales) or lack of financing. It seems that the foreclosures are the ones that are selling quicker. (more…)
