Today was my 51^st day on reading chapter 9 of “The Greatest Miracle In The World” By Og Mandino. Along with reading it, I also started saying 般若心経. I have another 50 days to reach my goal of 100 days.

In the evening at 5 p.m., I attended the trial class of advanced mediumship class at Zoom. It was a small number of student class. There were only two students including me. I liked this small class.

This class started off from the usual prayer and mantra followed by the instructor’s lecture. Then, we proceeded to the instructor’s guided mediation. It was about a spiritual journey to meet the old aged African Zulu. On the way to see our guide spirits, we were welcomed by their sacred dance. I could actually see their dance vividly in my vision. Their dance was flexible, dynamic, strong, powerful, and gorgeous. I was fascinated with their beauty.

Then we proceeded to meet our guide spirits. Today, my family spirits gave me a lotus flower. When they put the gift on my both palm, I felt heaviness. It was a golden lotus. It has roots attached.

Their message was like this.

They want me to have my root heavily and deeply grounded onto mother Earth, just like this root. Doing so will give me strength and braveness. While they were conveying the message, I felt deep sound with strong and low sound’s vibration. The deep sound could last long.

They also want me to be flexible and dynamic just like a gentle lotus flower petals. The lotus flower is plain and simple, but it has a powerful aura and presence that people will acknowledge. They want me to be like that.

Then, the guide told me to ask my family spirits one question. How is different from the ancient Zulu people and the modern people? I asked this question and waited for their answer. They told me like this.

The biggest difference is a wall and a boundary. The ancient Zulu lived without any walls and boundaries. They lived with their tribal members as a big extended family. They treated children as if their own kids. They treated elders as if their own parents. They didn’t distinguish the blood-related or not. On the other hand, the modern people live with a whole bunch of walls and boundaries. They limit their family only to blood-related. They categorize by the conditions such as skin colors, races, and nationalities. They don’t want me to do any changes drastically such as living as a homeless or anything like that, but they want me to start doing a small challenge every day.

After the mediation, we proceeded to two actual practices.

The first practice was to read the energy of a stone that the instructor brought back home from somewhere.

I felt the followings from the stone.

Ocean, water, blue, blue sky, and the gentle female energy.

The instructor told us he picked the stone by the spring at the foot of Mount Shasta. It is the sacred place for Native Americans. Even at the foot of the mountain, the elevation was high and the air was cool.

The second practice was to read the energy of a picture in an envelope.

I felt a bridge connecting between two different lands on ocean. It was like Akashi-Kaikyo bridge or its sister bridge; Golden Gate Bridge. Its background was clear blue sky with a little bit of clouds.

The instructor opened the envelope and showed us the picture. It was a black-and-white picture of Hindu Goddess. She was sitting on a lotus leaf in the shallow water. I was right about the center item (figure) was on the water connecting two areas, in this case maybe connecting the sacred realm and the physical realm.  

When I woke up in the morning, I noticed one missed call from my dad at 1:34 a.m. He left a voice message in the middle of night. Luckily I set my cell phone to airplane mode during night, his phone call did not bother our sleep. I also noticed a text message through LINE from my cousin. Poor my cousin, he said he received a phone call from my dad. My dad asked my cousin to ask me to call my dad.

I didn’t call my dad back in the evening. I attended the mediumship class for 1 hour from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. I didn’t want to get disturbed by my dad before the class. I wanted to enjoy the class.

During the class, I set my phone as silent mode. While I was meditating in the class, I noticed my phone was receiving a phone call from my dad. I wanted to focus on my class, so I didn’t bother to answer the phone during my class. He called me three times and left a voice mail three times. I also noticed my cousin again called me through LINE. My dad called my cousin and asked him to call me.

I called back to my dad at home phone but it didn’t go through. I also called his cell phone three times, but it always went directly to the message center. I know my dad doesn’t listen to the message, so I didn’t bother to leave a message.

It was annoying. If he cannot get hold of me, he should use my brother’s help, not my cousin.

The great thing was though, my family spirits protected me by somewhat blocking the phone calls. Maybe it is still not a good time to talk to my dad. He might change to his usual angry mode. I don’t want to get disturbed. 

Today’s dream: My daughter and I were with my dad. He took us to a pet shop. There, he bought us a white French bulldog puppy. We came back home with the puppy, I went to the backyard. I was drawn to a red small flower. When I focused on the flower, the flower changed into a small bird. The bird asked me to hold her, so I held the bird onto my chest. Then, the bird changed into a puppy.

Then I woke up feeling refreshed and happy. It was a pleasant dream.

Today my Australian friend did a card reading session for my family’s inheritance division issue. She read the energy accurately. I asked her to pull cards for me about 4 options. She didn’t know I already have chosen to the first option; sign the Agreement and walk away without pursuing my lawful right.

Her reading ability is always amazing. She read it accurately. Even though she didn’t know I chose to walk away with empty hands, she mentioned the words “empty hands” at the very first sentence.

Also she read my dad’s energy right, even though she never met my dad. She read my dad wants to control my brother and me via money, and that is why he wants to keep all the money to himself.

In her reading she said it was “a lesson in power struggles”. She also praised me that I have come this far. When I was a child living under my parents’ roof, I was meek and timid, but current me is much stronger than before. I am standing in my power, and I can speak up my opinion to my dad. When I read this part, I got goosebumps. As a matter of fact, when I said to my dad “I am not going to sign until we have a peaceful discussion” on the phone, he lost his temper. He probably never imagined that I would talk back to him. I felt so good to speak up my opinion. Even though I gave up my inheritance right and walked away with empty hands, I still feel I learned a lot from this experience.

All in all, I am feeling fine with my decision; walk away at this time. But I will not walk away on the second inheritance. I will claim my lawful right on the next one.

It was a peaceful day. My husband’s birthday is coming closer. We bought a small cake to celebrate his birthday. Since the cake looked so good, we decided to celebrate his birthday today with the cake.

In the evening for 2-3 hours, we worked on getting rid of weeds of our front and back yard. Even though it was a tough job, I enjoyed working on the mother earth.

***

At night 8 p.m., my phone rang. It was from my dad. I looked at my phone’s screen and wondered for a while if I should take it or not. I decided not to take it. I was not ready to talk to my dad, and I didn’t want to feel uncomfortable right before I went to sleep. I am determined to keep my peaceful days. I don’t want my dad to disturb my peaceful sleep.

Today was a very busy day. After I came back from my chores going to the notarization office and the post office, I needed to get ready for my appointment. In the early afternoon at 13:30, I had a follow up meeting with my doctor regarding my lab test result of August 18th.

My Hemoglobin A1C was not that bad. It was 7.1. The doctor said I have been doing well on controlling my blood sugar. Considering the fact that I haven’t taken the diabetes medication since last October, I think I am doing very well on that. But there was another issue that the doctor wanted to discuss with me.

It was about my triglyceride value. It was 405. It is supposed to be lower than 150, so the result shows my blood contains lots of fat. Also she pointed out the value of Albumin in Urine. It is supposed to be lower than 30. I was just a bit above than the normal range. The doctor told me the high value of Albumin in Urine shows that liver may have gotten damaged.

With the explanation, the doctor prescribed three meditations; for diabetes, for cholesterol, and for heart. I will need to do more research if I should take these medications or nor, and its safety and side effects before I start taking them.

Today was a busy day. I went to the Notarization office and had my signature notarized for the inheritance agreement packet. At first, as I expected, the notarization officer denied my request to stamp 割り印, put the Seal overlapping two pages. However, after I succeeded to make her laugh during our conversation, she became so friendly and nice to me, just like she is my BFF. From that moment, she was very helpful. She went to talk into the office manager and got her approval to stamp割り印 for me. I was so relieved.

My next stop was the post office. I sent out the packet to the Japanese accountant.

When everything was done, I felt so relieved. Since August 11th, or even before, since my mom’s departure day, I had been stressed out with this inheritance division issue. Now I can finally breathe comfortably. I could have pursued my lawful right, but it would have been energy consuming and time consuming. I would not want to waste my precious time and energy on fighting. I definitely don’t want to involve my precious family; my husband and daughter, into this stressful situation. I walked away empty handed, but I am feeling so good.

Dealing with my dad regarding the inheritance division was tough, but it has given me lots of lessons.

Today our Homesite lease process in Navajoland finally terminated. We started in summer 2016 and ended in August 2020. It took them 4 years to process.

Luckily in this situation, the Navajo tribal office allowed us to authorize my dad-in-law to receive the final lease contract documents.

In September we are planning to visit my in-laws and receive the document. My family has been missing our Navajo parents and the Navajoland energy. It will be more than one year since our last visit.

Today the inheritance division agreement was delivered. It took them 3 days to deliver it to me from Japan. I think it was pretty fast.

At night, I talked with the accountant via Zoom to get the detailed instruction. It was our 4^th meeting. It was helpful to talk with the video chat. My previous understanding of the location of Seal was wrong. It was good that I could talk to him in advance.   

Now I need to figure it out exactly how I can sign the documents, and how I should instruct Notarize office representative to put their Notary Seal.

In Japan, they use the system called 割り印 for an official document. The signers are required to put the Seal overlapping two pages. I have 3 copies of Agreements. I will need to 3 割り印 overlapping between my signature certificate and the Agreement itself. I hope I will have a helpful and flexible representative at the notary office tomorrow.

Today was another busy day.

My daughter and I went to the store to get some clothes and underwear for her. We also stopped by at pizza restaurant and the Vietnamese restaurant. I wanted to celebrate her special day with her favorite restaurant foods.

Also I needed to go to the grocery to pick up the medication that the doctor ordered yesterday. I needed to wait in the long waiting line. When it finally turned to be my turn, I was told my insurance company rejected my medication. The pharmacist was nice though. He tried to help me out. He said he would fax the detailed information to my doctor, so that the doctor could talk to the insurance company on behalf of me. Then the insurance company might approve.

It was hard to communicate with anybody with a facial mask. Our voice was muffled and we have to yell at each other to communicate. Besides, wearing a facial mask makes me irritated, hard to breath, getting even hotter in this extreme hot days.

At night 9 p.m., I had a zoom meeting with the inheritance accountant. It was our third time to talk. With his help and support, I have started understanding my dad and my brother. I made my mind to comfortably sign the agreement document. So, today’s conversation with him was fun. I am so happy that he was chosen as our inheritance accountant. Maybe he was sent by my mom and my family spirits.

I sent three gifts to my dad. Two gifts are offering to my mom’s alter; a set of incenses and a box of cookies. The other one gift is for my dad; an already cooked mix of Matsutake gohan. My dad’s house maid informed me the two gifts are already delivered to my dad. My dad looked happy to know they were from me.

Maybe, it was just simple. My dad simply wanted to keep his money handy because he feels money will protect him. With the support of our inheritance accountant along with my late mom and family spirits, I could regain my unconditional love to my dad. I feel peace.   

It was a really busy day.

In the early morning I had a doctor’s visit through their webchat app. The new doctor assigned to me last year left the clinic already. This year a new doctor was assigned to me. The new doctor was aｎ Asian woman. She looks very young; maybe in her late 20s or early 30s. She was very nice and kind and supportive. I am so glad the clinic assigned me this doctor.

Since I am 50 years old, the doctor explained three options I can consider. The first option was Cologuard. It is a colon cancer screening that I can do at home. The company will send me a box of the test kit. I take the sample and send it back by UPS. The second option was Shingle Vaccine. The third option was Pneumonia vaccine. She was not pushy. She recommended me to do some research about them first. If I want to take it, I can call the clinic and order it. As the doctor’s advice, I will look up more information before I make my mind. I refused to take mammography and cervix cancer screening.

The doctor ordered a lab test for me this afternoon at 2 p.m., so I went to the clinic and had my blood drawn. It was my first time to visit the local clinic. At the entrance door they put a huge poster with a red mark with the big capitalized words saying STOP. It says stop entering to this building if you have high fever or cough, or any Covid-19 symptoms. When I entered the building, the same poster was attached in every single door to each room. It was good for them to perform such a strict protocol in order to prevent spreading the virus in the community.

I am glad I could finally have a lab test. I really hope I will have good results in my lab test in each test items.

At the early afternoon, my daughter had a benchmark test. The test was performed online at their live lesson room, and the homeroom teacher proctored the students through webcam. Unfortunately for my daughter, the server kept on frozen the question screen. Every time she answered the question and tried to submit the answer, it frozen. The teacher was dealing with 50 students in the small screens so it was slow for her to fix the issue for my daughter.

My daughter needed to sit in front of the computer screen for more than two hours to complete the benchmark test.

***

After the benchmark test, we went to the local library. We had an appointment with the library director. My daughter won the first prize for the summer reading program. The director wanted my daughter to come there to celebrate her first prize. There, my daughter received a packet of awards. There were small toys, a small notebook, and the award certificate. The biggest gift was a Walmart gift card. They didn’t know the amount. At home we checked the available amount of the gift card. It was a $75 gift card. We were surprised on how high the amount was. We appreciate their award.

At night from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m., I was planning to attend at the Mantra class. But the school office informed me that I was the only one student and they needed to cancel the class. I was looking forward to the class, but at the same time, I was happy for the class cancellation. Because these past some days, I was dealing with the inheritance discussion with my accountant and I was exhausted. I needed a good rest and sleep. I can go to bed earlier than usual tonight.

***

Right before we went to bed, my daughter found she just had her first period. It was an Aha-moment. Maybe it was my family spirits’ support to have canceled my tonight’s class, so that I could stay with my daughter.

She got shocked and cried. I understand how she feels. We both understand that having a first period is a blessing, but at the same time, it is shocking to know she has already crossed the line from childhood to adulthood in physical body. I stayed with her and calmed her down. I was glad to be able to spend time together with her at this special moment in her life. Congratulations to my daughter. Dear my daughter’s family spirits, thank you for supporting her and watching over her all the time. Please keep supporting her and protecting her. She is nice and kind. She is very sacred and holy to me. I wish all the best for her, from the bottom of my heart.
