3:02 AM
in the history of peace on earth
I was working very hard at the Natural Product
Expo West between Wed and Friday eve.
The focus was meeting the job of getting
good Super Ripe Photos for the OTA.
Just getting up their safe and sound
was an achievement.
It was still Mercury Retrograde that ended
on Dr. Jensen's birthday last Saturday,
March 25. He would be around 96, but
went back to the fields of chlorophyll at 92.
Friday night, after the major connections I made
at the Organic Center VIP fundraiser, I caught
the last ten minutes of the first big blowout party
of the event. It was a World Music Fest and everyone
was letting there hair down.
I noted that duirng the first couple days, I saw
thousands of people in woman bodies, but I was
not aware of feeling a single woman.
Everyone was about their agenda. They were still
reeling from being on site. Everyone has a purpose
it seemed. The Village was still forming.
I thought it was odd that I could not feel any female energy.
I am sure it was just me and a mirroring of wherfeI was at.
When I stepped into the World Music Fest, it was the tail end
of the last song. I was drawn two two women who were
beaming. I thought they looked familar but did not recognize
them. They had to remind me, that I see them all the time
at Whole Foods San Diego. That was how altered I was.
I took their photo and they loved it.
Then I was walking in the hallway.
I saw my first woman. She was sitting on the ground
cross legged. She had her eyes clothed. A man was behind
her massaging her shoulders and neck.
Ahh. Thank God. Someone behaving appropriately for
what we were all going through.
I hadn't eaten any dinner. It was around 12 midnight.
I was not willing to give up. I was about to do that.
I was already in the parking lot.
Then through the wall of the Marriot, I heard some incredible
piano playing.
I went in. There was a man who was playing up a storm.
A woman had her feet up and was relaxing in awe.
I came closer. She said, "I have known him for more than two
years. I never knew he played the piano!"
He kept it a secret.
There were two other women present.
One I later learned was Beverly Taft.
She lives in Toronto, Canada.
Another woman was with her, Christina.
The lady in the chair was the principal owner
of Raincoast brand wild Salmon and fish products.
Bev erly and I sat down on the couch as the others
wandered off to get drinks.
Again, thank God!
We connected. I pulled out The Seven Love Cures.
We started to read them.
She had a performance voice.
She kept deflecting appropriately the love words
and saying the name of her husband, Fred, who was
at home. I enjoyed watching this energetic.
It was almost a scene from a movie that I was enjoying.
Here I was, saying vicarious words of love, words
that men need to hear and women want to know.
I was not saying these in any way to come on to her,
yet she was taking in the love words. She had to do
something with them, so she would keep sending
the energy to Fred at home. I loved it.
I verbalized how she was the first woman I had felt
in over 72 hours. It was delightful to be real and human
with someone and very non Expo.
The whole energy of the Expo started to shift for me.
It turned out she was a jazz singer and had a gig in
Seal Beach Sunday night. I thought I might be able to attend,
but closing energies and tiredness blocked that.
I did look up her web site tonight.
She is a real gift.
When the Best Seller CD of The Seven Love Cures
comes out, I can imagine Beverly Taft being one of the female
voices. More likely, we will do a live performance when I am
in the Toronto area.
The next day I made a point of visiting the Raincoast booth.
The owner, Julie, was under the weather. She was generous.
There are a lot of snack foods around the aisels. She had real
food. There was a video about Wild Sockeye Salmon playing
in the background.
She gave me two cans. I connected with Christina, the
other woman in the booth, a real vibrant female, incredibly
beautiful. We never touched but for maybe eyes.
I took her in.
I give praise to Raincoast Brand for feeding me
at the Natural Product Expo West.
On my first stop back in San Diego, I stopped
at Whole Foods Market Hillcrest.
Three cans of Raincoast Brand Salmon were on my shopping
list.
I highly recommend this brand for anyone who eats salmon
or tuna from a can.
This is a Heart and Soul company and deserves our support.

TESTIMONIAL for the RAINCOAST Website:
http://www.raincoasttrading.com/testimonials.html
"Having grown up on the banks of the Skeena River, in those days one of BC's best Salmon Fishing Rivers, we often feasted on Wild Salmon throughout the summer months. My mother was an avid canner and would on an annual basis "put-up" a fresh batch of Sockeye for our winter needs. That was canned salmon to me - nothing but the fish, a tad of salt and the love only a mother can put into those jars.
When I was first introduced to the "concept" of Raincoast Trading along with their methods of harvest and processing I knew that there was a market just crying for a product with the level of integrity that these folk have displayed. I am very proud in knowing that the enthusiasm I showed Mike and his team from the get go has given them the drive to take this project from Ocean to Table.
You only have to open the can to know that you are getting the BEST fish you will every consume from BC waters."
