3/9/2008 THANKS SO MUCH AS ALWAYS MARIE. YOU ARE A KIND AND COMPASSIONATE PERSON. I WILL KEEP YOU POSTED.
3/9/2008 Sorry ran out of time but felt your reading was clear and to the point. Thank you.
3/9/2008 How can I truly express myself? We all have problems....We all have issues. You can call your mother you can call you girlfriend/guy friends....but how un-biased is that opinion? Sister Ophelia is un-biased, comforting and I must say caring. Refreshingly appropriate...A must call.
3/8/2008 Extremely gifted!
12/23/2007 Marie always gets 5 stars I would pick 100 if it was listed bcuz she is always so great with how she reads; clarifying all the confusion one can have (esp. me) and putting things in prespective. I always count on her to give me the guidance I need and she always dose that accurately and with great swiftness and detail. Call her you'll love how she reads and you can count on what she it telling you!
12/23/2007 Sister Ophelia is still number 1! I cannot describe how accurate she is, has always been. For several years I have called other advisors and always slap myself on the forehead after talking with Ophelia. "Why did I call anyone else?!" This is what I say to myself. Not only does she see everything, (don't ask me how, she just does). she tries to help you to help yourself. Now I just have to listen and follow through with what she and I know is true. Happy Holidays Ophelia, and I cannot thank you enough!

It was a wonderful reading. Very different from any other I've had before, yet accurate and informative in ways that are unusual, yet I can't explain. This was a very helpful reading. There are very few people who can read for me at the spiritual level I'm at, but Sister Othelia is now one of them.

Very insightful and VERY sweet. Was honest and upfront with her reading. Tells you the whole truth good or bad. I'm still very hopeful and will get through what I'm going through somehow. I will certainly call her again here soon for more insight.
Embracing Insanity
By Ann Marie O’Dell
“Be that way!
Walk on!” yelled
the beautiful artist
sitting on the
front steps of
her apartment house.
Instead, intrigued,
she looked at his
thin body leaning
against the
brick wall,
saw the sway of
his gold scarf
as he got up
and crossed the
cobblestone street.
She laid a
blanket in the hall.
Like a stray dog,
he slept there.
In the early dawn,
outside her door
to the outside
world she’d hear
him leaving.
Later, when he
howled to her
in the night
like an
alley wolf,
she howled back.
At times, they
shared angry
philosophy
and she longed
to embrace
his insanity.
One day, like a
passing storm,
his smell and feel
were gone.
But his shadow
stayed,
whispering,
and she wondered
if, one day,
he would send
his ear in a box.

Beautiful bird arrows cross the sky in perfect alignment. Another year goes by.. What wisdom have I learned from the last one? That no matter how my dreams succeeded or failed less is more. A simple strong foundation creates castles later on. Life always has a way of turning the tables on what we expect. I am what I am, a Prairie Crone, and proud of each imperfection. I accentuate my flaws like a vase of colorful wild flowers.

I am an Adult Indigo Child. When I was small I pinged in like a satillite on the energy from trees, wind, animals, people and land. There was no tree to tie my swing to. I flew through the air, distracted, to what ever energy caught my interest. My teachers wrote, "Ann thinks in abstract concepts... but works below her level. {They had no idea what that level was.} I was a whale child...pinging frequencies on my enviroment. My mother fed creativity to my hungry mind. Now we write books together, and I "ping" for a living.
I am a "whale child"... Additional Dimension Disorder. "Whale child"....because I am pinging like a satellite at all times for frequencies and rhythms. My mother raised me on the classics and told me at 4 she would play a classical album and ask me who the composer was. She said I could listen to just a few notes and name the composer quickly. My mother encouraged my musical gift with passion, which gave me confidense during crippeling school years.
I am a Published Poet of 2 books of New Age Poetry, sold on Amazon, and have just released my first CD of Poetry with 2 other extraordinary women poets. I have layered the CD with Lakota Flute, Bow Harp, Guitar and Banjo. Unfortunately my beloved Psaltery, though sweet toned in person, came off sounding like the voice of a shrill fishermen's wife during my recording. Until I find a way to have an audio of its true sound, I stick with the mid toned and tenor sounding instruments at the studio.

Hi love, drop in to say I visited you today as I am in myspace, wishing you many more moments as the moment come along. Keep up your divine work as you do always *lovelighthugswisdom*
Greetings dearheart Sharing this with you today as I come this way*
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle.
The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.
“The journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.” Lao Tzu "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that frightens us. We ask ourselves 'who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; its in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
Beyond the chatter of the mind there is this happening. It is always going on, yet rarely ever noticed. Our thoughts are a part, but it does not require them. It happens of itself, despite my grandest of notions. When the mind is still the background stands out and swallows "me" completely "I" do not exist, as once thought before.
I recently came to the notion that "If I can do a thing, I can also not do a thing." "Doing" and "not doing" are two sides of the same coin. Whatever side of the coin we may find ourselves on, we are already half way there to the other side. The connection between the two is obvious but often remains obscure in the face of conditioned patterns and habits. Most of the time we react to our conditioned habitual patterns and cycles immediately, without ever pausing to see it for what it is: A conditioned reaction. This reaction takes place so fast that it is rarely ever noticed or even considered.
I have been recalling my recent insight every time I find myself craving something like a cigarette. In that critical moment when the thought arises, I remember that if I can do this (smoke a cigarette), I can also not do it (not smoke it.) By calling my awareness to this fact when these thoughts and cycles arise, it has allotted me the space to make an actual choice as opposed reacting to an old familiar pattern.
This realization has become somewhat of a mantra for me. I've been invoking it every time I find my self reacting to something. If I can get mad, I can also not get mad, If I can be afraid of something, then I can also not be afraid of something, If I can crave something, then I can also not crave something." The possibilities seem endless. It’s amazing how the awareness at the right moment has made all the difference. Of course the old patterns still continue and return from time to time and that’s ok too. As the awareness interrupts the old patterns they are becoming less and less frequent. To use the analogy of a spinning wheel, once you stop spinning it, it will still go for awhile but eventually come to rest.
Often we tend to overlook the importance of emptiness. Without emptiness, no form could exist. They are intrinsically tied to each other. The usefulness of any vessel can be found within the empty space inside. Like a clay vase, it is not so much the form that matters, but in the space inside that makes it useful. The empty space of a canvas is necessary for the paint that lies upon its surface. The paper upon which we read printed letters is often overlooked. So much of our attention falls upon the things lying in the forefront while the background escapes us.
Here is to swimming in the vast ocean of nothing from which everything is born! I am honored that we may meet here. Have a great weekend! ~R~
