  1. Love, love, LOVE this post Amy. Joy radiates from your words and I had a bit of a giggle when I watched your video. You reminded me of my daughter and the way she talks to her cat. Gorgeous pictures of your fur family. Yes my friend, you’ve chosen well. Thanks for the uplifting post and for sharing your love of life. Keep enjoying your high vibrational life my dear friend. Sending you lots of love and big hugs 💜🙏

    1. BIG SMILES!!! Miriam, my life is very structured right now and in so being, I have devised ways to stay in flow, and to keep pursuing the passions of my heart. I LOVE my family …. they bring so much love and joy into my life. As for your daughter, why not? I talk to my kids, and I do my best to understand them which is challenging in of itself.

      You are so welcome for the uplifting post. It brings great JOY to my heart knowing you so enjoyed this post. If I can maintain joy and peace in my life within the circumstances I face, anyone can. It’s all in the attitude and the status of your heart. I AM radiating that high vibration found in my life out to ALL in this world as I celebrate life itself. Much love to you, dear friend. BIG (((HUGS)))!!! xoxo

  2. Beautiful macros. I love the kitty photos. Nice conversation with kitty. He wanted you to let him in. Our kitties have us opening the door to let them to go out in the Sally Port. It’s 11ºF this morning. We leave the door ajar so they can push the door open to get back in, but they won’t close the door behind themselves. You would think they were born in a barn. Oh! I guess they probably were born in a barn.

    1. Hi, Tim! Everyone who sees this video says the same thing … he wants to come in. He doesn’t. I have opened the door and nope that is not what he wants. He wants food and just to hang out at the door cuz he loves us. He knows coming in would upset the apple cart in so many ways. This cat is SMART! And as for how you allow your cats to come and go, lucky them! We live on a very busy street and next door contains a lot of scrap metal and wood. Too many dangers for these guys for me to let them out. I wish, Tim. I’m smiling that you you enjoyed this post. Of course YOU would! LOL Have a great weekend!! xo

      1. He’s a conversant kitty. Our kitties can go outside in the catio, on the deck and in the Sally Port, but all three are fenced in so the cats cannot get to the greater outdoors. After Spunk disappeared for three weeks in 2020, I fenced in all the areas that lead to the greater outdoors.

      2. Wow I would too, Tim. Rusty our youngest almost lost his left rear leg when doctors wanted to amputate it due to cellulitis. I vehemently said no and around the clock for the next 2 weeks, debrided that leg and foot in warm water with baking soda in it. I saved his leg along with antibiotics, fluids and a massive amount of pain medicine. He did however loose one nail (surgery) due to part of one of his toes that fell off. That is how severe this infection was and we think it was caused by the what is in our neighbor’s yard. Rusted junk.

        Your cats are lucky. Hubby who has never quite recovered from what we went through with Rusty says no to outdoors even if fenced in. So, I make sure windows are open as best I can and that sliding glass door with screen is open all year round. So what if our heating bill is a bit higher? Our cats happiness comes first!!

      1. Let me just suffice to say, my Journey led me down very deep holes I’d rather not have been and I experienced many losses as well. Yes my JOY is back. Thank YOU for noticing, Brad!! xo

    1. Jude, in your own words, you have given me a Great Gift, that of confirmation that what I am doing here is being noticed, and also, you have encouraged me hugely to continue. Bless you! I AM so grateful to you! If I can accomplish what I have, so then can you. You’ve got this, Jude. Truly!! xoxoxo

  3. Those are beauitiful portraits of your cats. Sleeping Beauty, No 3, is so like Sam, the cat my Mother used to have.
    Here in England, those colours mean “farm cat” and “do not mess with her”. And that was absolutely right. Sam took no cr*p from anybody and was more than capable of killing a rat, although, thank goodness, she never brought back a live one for our approval as she did with mice and shrews.
    Thanks for bringing back those memories, which I had thought were long forgotten.

    1. John, my sleeping beauty is Sassy, our 18 year old aka the Queen. You nailed it when you said, “do not mess with her”. I’m giggling as I write this. Sassy takes no cr*ap from anyone, including me. We in the states call this breed of cat, calico. I have another one, Meaghan, but Meaghan is visibly nervous around Sassy for good reason. Sassy is The SASS and my other 2 girls now it. Rusty and Sassy are good pals and even there, when Sassy has had enough she will swat Rusty followed with a good hiss. She knows what she wants and she gets it!!

      To my knowledge, cats do not kill rats. Again I could be proven wrong, LOL, for many times these cats have done that very thing.

      You are welcome for the surprise memories. Oh the JOY when we remember happy times. I spend as much time as possible with Sassy for she will most certainly be missed when her time comes. However, that being said, she is going to outlive me. She is something else!!! LOL xo

  4. I never met a cat that I didn’t like. There is a great deal of self control in your schedule, control that I wish I had. When we get uprooted from our surroundings, regaining control is difficult. Thanks for the reminder and the inspiration to try again. 😎

    1. Hi, George. You don’t know half of the self-control that is required doing the all that I do. My life as is NOW is a bit heavy on the structure for you see I am a Free Spirit. So I fly as best I can within the structures of my life.

      I understand what you mean by when we get uprooted from our surroundings. In 1993 I lost my life as I knew it, loosing my career I worked so hard for, lost all my so-called friends, lost any social standing, lost my church, lost my marriage as I knew it to be, lost me. I descended into a world of pain so bad I wanted to die. From there years in the making I pulled myself up by the ankle straps, one step at a time, to recreate my life. This time around I created my life the way I wanted according to my heart. I “thought” I had that in my “first” life but oh not so.

      I encourage you mightily to form another life for yourself. THINK what you want. DO what you would like to do. For me once I started really working on myself, in other words getting myself together, the Universe noticed and certain things began to appear to assist me to form my life. It was miraculous actually. If I can be any inspiration to you, I am deeply honored. Much love to you this day!!! xoxo

      1. Thank you so much. As you can see from my delays, I am definitely not in control. It began to fall apart when, against my better judgment, I got the 4th Covid shot. In one day I went from feeling the best I’d been in years to perpetual pain. I asked how long this would continue and was told indefinitely. Thank you for your kindness and support. It means more than you know. Blessings. 😎

      2. George, as a friend, my advice to you is not get any more boosters. Please. Start looking into good quality products to detox your body. Your body cannot handle any more of what is in those shots. Take care of you. BIG (((HUGS)))!!! xoxox

  5. “I choose love. Fun. Laughter. Rest. Creation. Beauty. Family…” We all have a choice to be a creator or a destroyer, a lover or a hater, a self-carer or a self-sabotager. Everyday, in every moment we can lose or choose ourselves, our family, our passions. May many blessings be yours in the purposeful life you are in the perpetual process of choosing and creating. 😍😊🥰

    1. Avigail, you speak Truth. I know you KNOW how to create out of a choice. The more we create from that choice of light, the more that becomes the ONLY decision we make. However, being human we do fall now and again but when we do climb back up to the light, and yes we do, there are lessons to be learned we had not yet learned. What a Journey!!

      Sending you so much love this day!! xo

  6. You have made a very happy life for yourself, Amy. Wonderful post! Mine is more unpredictable, because the ‘moments’ that happen in teaching steer me, following the little things that are really the big things. Make sense?

    1. Jennie, actually it makes a lot of sense to me. We all have “tailored” lives in order to bring order to the wreck we are inwardly. (ALL of us have much baggage!) My life believe me is very unpredictable as well, for most of my “lessons” and/or tests I never see coming. My curve balls. My “oh there goes the rug being pulled out from under me again!” To me once something upsets the apple cart, there are layers to see and to understand so that forward movement can be done in a more healthy manner. Hope MY answer YOU understand. LOL Much love to you! xo

  7. Firstly Amy, I love your Collage of photos…. How do we Choose? … We do so as you say, by following our hearts.. So when you wrote this, it said it all..

    “I have chosen the perfect life for myself to expand my consciousness and connecting more and more to my multi-dimensional self.”

    And that is what many do not understand Amy… Our reason to be here, our existence is to EXPAND our connections to Consciousness… and realise we are indeed Mult-Dimensional BE-ings 🙂

    Each are here within their own Stories, and each story is our own personal development, tailored to our own specific needs, in our growth towards our Divine Self..

    Each is unique, and No two stories are the same… But in sharing our stories, we begin to see, we are all of us searching for the same thing… And that same thing is to Be LOVED and Feel Love, and share Love..
    Love comes in many forms…

    You not only hold a love of photograph… You share your deep love with your family of cats.. And Oh do they melt the heart Amy… Beautiful photo’s my friend.. And Mr Blackie… Knows too that Love is abundant in your home for all four legged.. 🙂

    May you continue to ‘FLOW in the illusion of time’ Amy, making your time count with your kindness and generous heart..

    Much love and Blessings dear Amy. ❤ ❤ ❤

    1. Sue, your comment leaves me breathless. Your words just go straight to my heart. The miracle of sharing our stories helps each of us to add another chink to our own story …. for we are all connected and when we talk added information we recognize comes to the surface. How exciting is that? I used to belong to a group who shared from their hearts and it was so beautiful! We each used to ignite something in another and so on. THAT is why our enemy is pushing so hard to keep us separate! When we unite we become ONE UNIT, powerful and understanding how truly special we all are.

      Yes yes yes…. we all are seeking one thing …. and that is LOVE. It starts with the self. If you don’t love yourself, you will not be able to love others. At least not to extent it is possible to.

      Sending you so much love!!! (((HUGS))) xo

      1. May we each soon learn dear Amy that no matter how different our stories are.. We are all upon a collective journey, and as you said, when we Unite.. We become One Unite.. No longer a separate fractal, but each part of the Whole..

  8. Outstanding blog Amy. It is pure, truthful and a reflection of your personality and the things you do in your life. Thanks for sharing your story Amy.

    Also, great blog title “How do I choose?” Very nice introduction as well. As for me, It is easy to choose what I want in life such as the important stuff like family♥, productivity, talking with friends, work, blogging, music and my gadgets are most dear to me. Life is all about choices and we choose what to care about every day and once we have selected we have to live with the consequences whether good or bad🙌

    1. THANK YOU, Mthobisi. Deeply grateful for your extremely encouraging comment. Life is about choices, I do agree! We create our reality, no one else does. When we think upon that, I’d rather wake up with a smile on my face then a frown for that smile will stay with me all the day long just as well as a frown sill. Much love to you! xoxox

    1. BIG GRIN, Julie!!! Those of us who “get” animals truly know how special my “family” is. I later found out he was so chatty due to one of his teeth that was about to come out and how he wanted me to help him. I did afterward with Colloidal Silver and Herbal pain combination. I keep asking the Universe to assist me to understand these animals and birds and plants and trees …. ALL of Mother …. better. It’s a journey what can I say!!! Much love to you! xo

    1. Oh, Kate!!! You make my heart just expand with joy when you said, “keep on ascending”. With no further explanation I know exactly who you are. Amazing isn’t it? I either attract those of very low frequency or very high. The lows are those who I very carefully when guided to, encourage to start growing. My Journey to say the least, has been very challenging yet where I am today, I wouldn’t trade that Journey for anything!!! Bless you for the courage it takes to shine without fear. SO much love to you!! xoxoxoxo
