These last 3 months have been taxing, but my business has practically supplemented lost income and my restored wellness is here to stay!

Visit: My Link. for more of my story.

How was your 2008? Got vision for  2009?

Nothing is impossible and if you want it, there must be a way for you to have it.  Might take a bit of effort on your part, but you knew in your heart there was a vehicle that could get you where you want to go...would you be ready to get in the car and drive it?

Do you really think you deserve the dreams in your heart?

Think about it...It's not a redundant question.

If you want it...you can have it...

What's everyone up too?
Hi, It's been a while since I've come to Mindsay.

I've been round the mountain and back this last while.  Kind of wearing, but I'm baaaack and if I do say so mah-self, feeling much the better. I'm in a very peaceful place readied for what's coming round the bend.

It's funny, but every summer's end I can go into a real slump in my spirit.  The first golden leaf, enough to set me off in a quietened and sober way.  But not this year. 

Autumn has come and brings with it a sense of relief and refreshing.  The winds and rains heighten my anticipatory mood, and leave me enlivened.

Even the thoughts of winter bring a calm and sense of mystery and magic.  Ever walk out into a woods after a huge snow fall?  The snow creaking beneath your boots; life cloaked in a quietening; stilled.  The snow glistens even in moonlight, and a sense of awe and fantasy fills the moment.

Well, I don't know if we'll get snow here on southern Vancouver Island this year,and in 26 years of me being here, I've not missed snow but this is a thought that has been bringing a sense of relief and refreshing even youthful exhilaration to me and I embrace it.

I can't help but feel like something wonderful is coming my way.  I'll keep you posted.


Now...tell me about you.  Any changes good or bad? I'd really love to hear.

Later....just me, Linda

I believe in holistic health and taking responsibility for the health of your Mind, Body & Spirit.  If you're up to it; If you're open to powerful prayer and deliverance; If you know your authority in Christ and are not afraid...Here's some serious prayer points to release.  ...and I encourage, if there's something you don't agree with; Take the Meat and spit out the bones...Enjoy.

Get your coffee going and let's have a little chat...If it's healthy coffee, you'll feel better out the gate...Hmmm. Smiley

Struggles and tribulations can bring about strength, power, enlightenment.  Smiley Have you ever heard that?  Well I have to say don't knock it till you try it.  Struggle comes to us all and it can make or break you dependent upon the way you walk it out.  Nobody who continuously confesses...I'm sick.  I'm dying. My life is over....I can't make it. I'm losing it. I'm hopeless.  My life sucks. I get all the pits.  Why can't I get ahead?  ...all of a sudden experiences prosperity.

Are you kidding me?...Think about it. 

When have you ever seen anyone who speaks this way become successful and experience break-through?  I don't think it happens. Smiley

You have to start seeing yourself victorious regardless of what circumstances about you look like.  I encourage my kids to find out how God sees them and then come
in agreeance with that truth and watch barriers crumble and doors open. 

I am victorious.  I am the apple of HIS eye.  He causes me to triumph.  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.  He will never put more on my shoulders than I can bear...I can do it!  I can do it! and my needs are supplied to do it!  That's what you confess!  Confess life, shake off death and get ready for your creative genius to take off.  Oh yah,  blessings can rain on you out of heaven, but they come in many forms. Be alert, Sleepyhead. It's not about laying around and watching problemos magically disappearing, though  sometimes that can happen...but in your best interest you'll be  exercising those flaccid muscles. 
SmileyMight even find yourself doing some fancy footwork.  Can you dig it? Can you handle it?

Yes, Life is Good when you put yourself inline with the good things/blessings intended towards you and stop agreeing with destruction that would be happy to have it's way.  Smiley You've been redeemed!  Now take up your bed....and WALK!   You're going to start having a ball.  Living is really good! Smiley

Black as the devil, hot as hell....Ooooo How will you have Yours?


Black as the devil, hot as hell, pure as an angel, sweet as love. That’s the recipe for coffee, according to the utterly French statesman Talleyrand (1754-1838).

Across the Channel the British took a more, well, British approach to coffee cookery: Seventeenth-century diarist Samuel Pepys wrote of Londoners larding their coffee with butter, mustard, oatmeal, and ale.

Today’s choices, though arguably more appetizing, are no less confounding: Automatic drip or French press? Ground or whole bean? Fiery or frosty? Regular or unleaded? Americano, cappuccino, espresso, macchiato, mocha, or latte?

 

An average joe just doesn’t cut it anymore.



But we are a blessed people....

Now there's "Healthy"  Coffee!  even Mocha, Tea or  tonight for me, it's Shokolade!

COFFEE BLOOMS IN BRAZIL Circa 1727 to 1800


Brazil’s coffee empire
bloomed from a bouquet.


COFFEE BLOOMS IN BRAZIL
(Circa 1727 to 1800)

1727: Brazil’s government wants a cut of the coffee market; but first, they need an agent to smuggle seeds from a coffee country. Enter Lt. Col. Francisco de Melo Palheta, the James Bond of Beans.

Colonel Palheta is dispatched to French Guiana, ostensibly to mediate a border dispute. Eschewing the fortresslike coffee farms, suave Palheta chooses a path of less resistance—the governor’s wife. The plan pays off. At a state farewell dinner she presents him a sly token of affection: a bouquet spiked with seedlings.

From these scant shoots sprout the world’s greatest coffee empire. By 1800 Brazil’s monster harvests would turn coffee from an elite indulgence to an everyday elixir, a drink for the people.

Gabriel Mathieu de Clieu


Gabriel Mathieu de Clieu
shares his water ration.


CROSSING THE ATLANTIC
(Circa 1720 to 1770)

On the return passage to Martinique, wrote de Clieu, a “basely jealous” passenger, “being unable to get this coffee plant away from me, tore off a branch.”

Then came the pirates who nearly captured the ship; then came a storm which nearly sank it. Finally, skies grew clear. Too clear. Water grew scarce and was rationed. De Clieu gave half of his allotment to his stricken seedling.

Under armed guard, the sprout grew strong in Martinique, yielding an extended family of approximately 18 million trees in 50 years or so. Its progeny would supply Latin America, where a dangerous liaison would help bring coffee to the masses...
