“I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies,
the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to
say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?”

In closing, another link teaming coincidence with prognostication:
"One of the great cosmic laws, I think, is that whatever we hold in our
thought will come true in our experience. When we hold something,
anything, in our thought, then somehow coincidence leads us in the
direction that we've been wishing to lead ourselves." - Richard Bach

Once again, John Perkins dazzles with New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.
When he first went public with his story, he says his daughter assured
him she would follow through with disclosure of the information if he was taken out.
Really. This is explosive stuff.
Front, center and shadow, shady politics are a key component. Some might find it hard to believe, given the depth of the revelations and the risks involved in publicizing the information, that John is still alive. At least one poisoning incident took a toll on his physical health.
The new/updated version of his story includes additional footnotes, evidence and substantiating documentation. It isn't pretty. Far from a MIB, UFO conspiracy thing, this story underscores and outs the gritty, behind the scenes, in the trenches work of a "shadow" element that follows up to ensure compliance with "business" deals that are, from the outset, incredibly one sided.
In a recent blog post, John talks about his work with the Kogi and the latest trip to Columbia that he says might just become a new book. He relates his current focus. He continues to atone for events he got caught up in and could not prevent all those years ago. However, without his knowledge and involvement, the information would not have come to light.Video interview about his recent trip: YouTube Link
Echoing once again, "a message of hope, one that says we can transformer ourselves from
societies that adhere to systems that threaten to destroy us to ones
that will sustain us and future generations."

Compilation wrap up time for an incredible 2016. For the last show, we sample four shows from the Wendy's Coffeehouse podcast archives. Each offers an example of how, at any given moment, life can deliver an extraordinarily paradigm shift. I had one in 1997.
Amazing things are happening to every day people on our planet. Even a glimpse of those experiences is an opportunity to open a window to a new view and a potential new engagement with reality.
12/24/16 Wendy's Coffeehouse - It's a Wrap! Archives are open 24/7
Wendy's Coffeehouse [Audio Boom/podcast archive] I selected topics for this final show that highlight transcendence and personal encounters with the unknown.
Overview: 1/Miracle survival and recovery from a near fatal accident delivers a bonus in the after effect: desire and ability to heal others. 2/Close Encounters with UFOs and Unexplained. 3/Animal Communication ability triggered by falling off a horse. 4/Near Death transformation inspires a doctor to become a concert pianist.
These are powerful stories from people who have experienced, in some form, an amazing life calling or redirect. I am so glad to have had the opportunity to connect and to share them.
Background info on each of the four segments is featured in the contact links and the links are also posted for the entire interview segment highlighted by the original date of broadcast on KCMO.
Doug Heyes almost died in a ski accident. 8/13/16, Miracle on the Mountain He recovered and discovered he had also acquired the ability to heal others. Through his book, The Touch/Amazon, he shares some of the wisdom he acquired along the way:
"My master Dr. Wu once told me the secret to mastery of qi gong is to
keep doing it and doing it and doing it.
My Kung Fu Grandmaster Don
Baird says it takes ten thousand repetitions of a move to begin to claim
mastery of it. Dr. Yuen put it this way: “When we first start doing
this work, we do a great deal to achieve minimal results. As we
progress, we do less and less to achieve more and more. Finally, as we
become masters, we achieve our most dramatic results by doing nothing at
all.” Let’s all bow in. It’s time to train." Source: FindhornPressBlog
Dr. Ardy Sixkiller Cark is a Story Collector. 9/20/16, UFOs, Sky People and other encounters with the unexplained are the focus and this segment included a very interesting meeting with a man who claimed to have found a way to travel the planet via portal. Still in her vast collection, a few hundred stories waiting to be shared. However, she says her next project is a children's book.
The potential for extraordinary experience is limitless. Limitless, we are here exploring. As such, one might expect that there is always room for improvement! Indeed, it arrives with each and every upgrade in awareness. Refresh, Restore, Renew and Imagine More.
Best wishes for an extraordinary 2017 and beyond. ~ wendy #wendyscoffeehouse
