I had a dream this morning. A spider came in to the room, so I grabbed a flyswatter and banged the spider and killed it. Then, a fly came in to the room, so I killed it with the flyswatter in one shot.

I usually receive messages from my family spirits before I wake up, but this morning I didn’t. I had a good feeling from this dream, and so, at least I knew it should be a good message.

I looked it up many different people’s interpretation of this dream online. Most of them say it implies a good luck in human relationship or finance is on my way.

Interestingly, one website says the different interpretation. It says that any person whom I dislike or the person who disturbs my way will disappear. After I thought about any such person, I recognized I don’t have anybody whom I dislike.

I was surprised. Wow. This is a great improvement for me that I don’t hate anybody. I thought about my younger days when I had a whole bunch of people whom I disliked, especially in my workplace. But right now, NONE. What a great improvement for me. Yay!

I make efforts on this improvement.

In current daily life, whenever I run into somebody who is not nice to me or whom I feel uncomfortable, I at least make my efforts to like the person. I try to find something good about the person so that I can spend time with the person comfortably. Most of the time, whenever I put a smile on my face and say something nice to the person or do something kind to the person, that will break the ice between us, and I will be able to feel comfortable spending time with the person. I guess, aging is not bad at all. I have learned from my tough experiences in my younger days.

Last night I attended the workshop sponsored by the local university. The target audience was small business owners, and the topic was to discover your customers.

The speaker shared his personal knowledge on how to discover your customers.

Here are some tips that I learned from the speaker today.

In order to widen your potential, first, ask advice to your family member. Usually your mom is the best person to ask for advice. Second, fully utilize your network. – This is true. Your family is on your side but they can see situations and potential customers more objectively than you do. Indeed, people is eager to help you. When you ask for help, they are willing to help with whatever they can.

Then, the speaker shared some technique in writing an email. Take time to write an email. Start taking about some common ground, such as “we met at the workshop the other day” or “I am a friend of your coworker”. This helps the email receiver to recognize that you are a regiment person, not spam. Take time to create some template based on the situation.

Finally, the speaker shared some technique in a phone conversation. He demonstrated four patterns in different situations. During the conversation, let a customer talk — refrain taking over the topic. This is your valuable opportunity to know your customer. Take a memo of any of your impression or thoughts about the customer. Write down about what kind of topic a customer likes or dislikes. In case a customer navigates the topic to negative way, take a lead to change it to a positive way. This resonates me very well. I feel the best technique to navigate a great conversation is to listen carefully to the other.

This workshop was beneficial for me. These types of tips and technique cannot be gained in school. Rather, we can gain through our direct experiences in daily life. I am away from business world for these 10 years. So, it was good for me to refresh my memory on how to navigate a conversation in positive way.

Today is summer solstice. Japanese elders told me that summer solstice tells the beginning of summer in Japan and it gets hotter from this day.

As for the area where I currently live, I feel that summer solstice tells the ending of summer, and the temperature starts getting calm down. It is a turning point of this year 2017.

Last night we had an unexpected rain. The rain of last night was blessing for this area. The rain cooled off the area. I enjoyed the smell of rain.

This morning I went out to the back yard and found all my plants looked happier than before. They received a blessing rain last night.

I will start counting down the dates until monsoon. Hang in there, me. Monsoon is right around the corner.

In Japan, we don’t have a habit of hugging. I don’t think we shake hands often neither. Instead, we make a bow.

I don’t mind to hug my family and close friends, however, I do mind hugging a stranger or the person whom I don’t know much.

Let me share my experience of hugging a stranger.

Recently I attended a gathering. On leaving the place, each attendance hugged each other. I was trying to leave the place quietly and quickly so as to avoid hugging strangers, but one woman found me leaving. She quickly came to me and hugged me.

After I came back home, I noticed I was irritated by something. I was angry with something. I searched in my mind the reason why I was angry. I was sure this anger was nothing to do with me. I took somebody’s anger in my energy field.

I checked my energy field. While I was checking the right bottom of my energy field, I sensed something external. I closed my eyes and focused on the energy field area.

I started seeing one scenery. First, the woman whom I hugged showed up in my vision. Then, a man showed up. They were arguing about something. They did not seem to be happy being together. The vision showed that the woman tried to lean over to him, but the man pushed her back by the chest. That means the woman and the man are not in the well balance in energy. The woman wanted and expects more from the man, but the man refused doing so. Due to the unbalanced energy, both of them were irritated and angry to the partner.

I focused on the man. Perhaps the man is the woman’s husband or boyfriend. I could see the man’s detailed appearance. He was skinny and tall, with short blonde hair. He had a short mustache upper side of his lips. I saw him wearing a light blue shirt and brown cowboy boots.

Later on, I had an opportunity to attend the same gathering. There, I found out that the woman was having a hard time with her boyfriend. They were about to break up their relationship. She showed me the picture of her boyfriend. The man in the picture was the same appearance that I saw in my vision.

I don’t like peeking at anybody’s private life. Their private life is none of my business. And, even if I see some visions of their private life, I cannot do anything for it.

My conclusion in sharing this experience of mine is to warn you the possibility of hugging. It is easy for the people like me who are energy sensitive to see through people’s private life. It is not fun in both ways, to see it or to be seen it, right?

Now that I am 47 years old, I am having some health issues. My recent blood test result shows that my triglycerides and cholesterol are extremely high. I am a diabetic and my blood sugar is higher than it should be.

I need to do something to improve my blood flow. My blood seems not to be flowing smoothly. It says high triglycerides increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.

When I was single, living alone in Japan, I often suffered from severe tummy ache. I ended up going to the ER three times. The doctor could not find any causes of my stomach ache. Whenever I had that type of severe pain in my stomach, I used to pray to my family spirits to take me back to my spirit world. I didn’t have any desire or hope at that time. I was willing to end this life anytime.

Now, my desire has been changed. Now, I strongly desire to live long in my healthy body with my family. Yesterday, when I suffered from the severe pain in my head, I prayed to my family spirits that I would like to live long with my family.  I prayed so hard to heal me.

I don’t like being sick. I don’t like making my family worried about me. I want to stay being healthy. I want to be there whenever my family needs my support. In order to make it happen, I need to maintain my good health.

So, this is a message to the people who feel lonely right now. Please know that your loved ones are somewhere waiting to meet you in the future. Please don’t give up on finding them. Once you find your loved ones, you will desire to live long and healthy. Until then, please maintain your good health.

Today I woke up with a slight headache. I noticed the extreme heat inside the house. Even though we keep the swamp cooler along with the bed room ceiling fan ON all night, the entire house stays hot.

I went to the swimming pool in the morning. It was comfortable staying in cold water, but the Arizona’s strong Sun was burning all over my body. I was hoping my slight headache would fade away in the swimming pool, but it didn’t.

When I came back from the swiming pool, my headache got worse. As the time went by, my headache got worse and worse. I tried my best to cool my body off by drinking plenty of water and cooling my body with ice packs. None of my efforts worked. I ended up laying down on the bed.

With the severe pain in my head, I could not sleep. I felt like my brain would explode.

I could not stand with the pain. I started crying out loud. I honestly thought I was dying.

My daughter heard my crying. She run to me and started crying for me.

My husband stayed calm because he can hear spirits’ voices. He told me I would get well after some sleep.

Then, my husband and my daughter gave me Reiki energy. As soon as I received Reiki energy from them, I started breathing deeply and calmly, and could fall asleep right away.

After several hours sleeping, I woke up recovered from sickness. I appreciate so much for my family’s support.

I checked the weather report. It says today’s highest temperature in our area was 105F (40.6C). The forecast says, our area has an extreme heat warning and the forecasted highest temperature would be 103F (39.4C) to 108F (42.2C) for this week until Saturday. Still, our area is better than Phoenix area. They might have the highest temperature up to 120F (48.9C) sometime this week.

Although it is my ninth summer in this area, my body still cannot accept the strong heat. We normally have monsoon season starting from the beginning of July. So, I will be surviving this heat for two more weeks.

There are many words that I learned from people after I moved in America. One of such words is a green thumb.

When I was in japan, I was not good at growing plants. However, after I moved to America, my family is always surrounded by green plants.

Maybe, both of my husband and my daughter have a green thumb.

The trees and plants have humble and pure energy. I enjoy feeling their gentle energy every day.

I lost count on how many times that I had dreamed myself being a public speaker in front of a big audience. I sometimes confuse if this reflects my soul’s desire or I am seeing the future of myself.

There is a huge gap between myself in my dream and in the reality. In the real life, nobody knows about me. I am far from a famous public speaker. I am just a normal person.

During my meditation this morning, I prayed to give me an answer. What is my life purpose? Why am I having a dream being a public speaker so many times?

After the meditation, I picked up one Angel card deck, Life Purpose Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue. I asked guidance to angels to show me my life purpose and one card.

The card that I pulled was “Speaker.” 

I know there are no coincidence. I guess I am not hallucinating. Being a speaker will happen to me in the near future.

Today I had a dream. I was in the moving train. All of a sudden, I jumped off from the train. Right after I woke up, I asked my family spirits about the message. I received the block of thoughts that I seemed to be given up on my small business. They wanted me not to give it up.

Indeed, I haven’t done anything to improve my small business so far this year. I have been thinking about forgetting about my small business. There are some of my acquaintances who started their small business before me. They have shown their progress. I have notified their progresses such as their newsletters, new Facebook Pages, teaching classes in local areas, and even broadcasting in Facebook events. Every time I saw their progresses and efforts, I am happy for them. But at the same time, I think of me not making efforts at all.

I went to swimming pool in the morning. I like going there in the morning, because I am the only one in the pool. I like floating myself on the back, simply enjoying the scenery. I watch a clear blue sky, thin layered white crowds, which are in a unique shape, and some birds coming to the surface of water to drink water.  

While I was relaxing, I noticed one repeating phrase from the music on the radio. The song said “Don’t you ever give up on your dreams.” I never heard this song before, so I don’t know whose song this is.

I know that my family spirits are good at manipulating radio to send me a message. So, I took this as a message from my family spirits.

After I came back home, I registered to one class for small business owners; How to Develop Your Customer. It’s a small step for me. Better than nothing, right? I will take a step forward little by little, but never stop.

I wrote down about my daughter being featured on the local newspaper in May, last month. It was her first time on the newspaper. In the picture, she was with other several classmates and her two teachers. She was standing in the center of other people. I know her personality. She does not aggressively stand in the center of people. When I saw the picture, I instantly knew somebody asked her to stand in the center of the people for the picture.

And, one month later, today, my daughter was featured on the local newspaper again. This time, in the picture, she was standing alone in the center of the picture along with her art work. The picture was even bigger than last time.

My daughter looks shy, always maintaining her humble and quiet demeanor. So, these two experiences being featured in the newspaper are the evidence that she was shining and caught the editor’s attention.

I have the similar experience. When I was 13 years old, I attended in the camping that the local prefecture held. The local television crews joined us for the 3 nights and 4 days camping. They shot the videos of us for the upcoming television show.

Most participants desired to be on the television show, so they made their efforts on expressing themselves whenever they had opportunities. As for me, I didn’t want to be featured on the television show. So, whenever the camera came toward me, I quickly hid myself behind somebody’s back. Whenever I had an interview from the television crew, I made a quick answer in cold and unfriendly attitude. I never thought they liked my quick and unfriendly answers.

On the on-air day, I didn’t even bother to watch the television program.

While I was attending a swimming club activity on that morning, many fellow club members told me that they watched the program. They also mentioned I kept on appearing in the program.

On next day, one of my fellow club member let me watch the program that he recorded on the VCR tape.

I watched the program. Indeed, I appeared several times. I still don’t know why the television director choose me to be on the program. I guess I was somewhat shining and caught their attention. It was my television debut.
