Animal Communicator Joanna Seere’s Beautiful Newsletter Remembering Thich Nhat Hanh

January 2022 Dear Spirit to Spirit friend,    Thich Nhat Hahn, revered Buddhist monk, teacher, and activist, made his transition from this earth this past weekend. He was masterful at simplifying Buddhist teachings so that they could be accessible to everyone and gave the world the gift of the illumination of the practice of mindfulness. . The Dalai Lama honored him with these words:    "In his peaceful opposition to the Viet Nam war, his support for Martin Luther King, and most of all his dedication to sharing with others not only how mindfulness and compassion contribute to inner peace, but also how individuals cultivating peace of mind contribute to genuine world peace, the Venerable lived a truly meaningful life."   Below, he gives us another gift- a glimpse into the timeless continuum of life and death.    Bowing in gratitude for all he has brought into our world.      "This body is not me. I am not limited by this body.   I am life without boundaries.   I have never been born, and I have never died.   Look at the ocean and the sky filled with stars, manifestations from my wondrous true mind.   Since before time, I have been free. Birth and death are only doors through which we pass, sacred thresholds on our journey.   Birth and death are a game of hide-and-seek. So laugh with me, hold my hand, let us say good-bye, say good-bye, to meet again soon.   We meet today. We will meet again tomorrow. We will meet at the source every moment. We meet each other in all forms of life."       In Blessings & Love, Joanna     ********     May all human beings, animal beings- all beings- on our planet receive  the Grace of Healing in their lives.    May our world, our planet, come into healing balance in beautiful new ways.      ********     If you or your animal family members are in need of support, you can schedule your session at www.spirit-to-spirit.net   To read more inspirational pieces, please visit my blog: https://www.spirit-to-spirit.net/blog Visit Spirit to Spirit     Spirit to Spirit| Joanna Beth Seere | 845.651.1383   joannaseere@spirit-to-spirit.net   www.spirit-to-spirit.net   P.O.

The Capitol switchboard, where you can call members of Congress is surprisingly well staffed and efficient! You can call to register your opinion about anything! I called Kyrsten Sinema, Joe Manchin III and Susan Collins and it 

didn’t change the vote on the filibuster necessary to pass voting rights legislation. Republicans I hear applauded loudly. But I made my voice heard. Even if they’re just

tallying Yes or No opinions, why not be counted? From now on it’s true that “it’s not(just) who votes but who counts the votes” but also as Biden said, whether they count your vote at all. Number: 202-224-3121 ….There it is!

A White Tiger in the Himalayas? Don’t I mean Snow Leopard? Well these days some things are just not right. This was a compelling artwork from a Ram Dass(RIP) newsletter. But do keep track of your mail-in ballot. 

 By “Immunity is Mutiny” I mean 1) Sleep well 2) eat healthy food 3) Exercise with a mask in case you meet somebody 4) keep Six feet Apart and mostly 5) Wash your hands.

Dear Friends, September and November we may be caught in a second wave of Covid-19 and it’s not safe to vote in person. Also it’s high time we had voting day be a holiday. Also: Immunity = Mutiny!

The Economist finally said our electoral college district is outmoded and favors the more doctrinaire Republicans(most of the moderate ones have long left the party)!

For primaries and the November 3rd presidential election. All votes matter but November 3rd couldn’t be more crucial.

Let’s do it soon before Trump figures out we are doing this! Update: By now it is painfully evident he already figured it out and is doing everything to stop it. So by now I hope you have gotten your primary ballots and I think it might be wise to drop it off at a drop box, if your town has one, for ballots. With mask and soc-dis

Update: More on this from Skimm daily email newsletter:

“With July 4th coming up, it's a good time to take stock of our voting rights. If you haven't had your primary yet and aren't comfortable voting in person: here's how to request an absentee ballot. If you've experienced voter suppression or intimidation, you can report it to the DOJ or your local election office. You can also call these hotlines: 1-866-OUR-VOTE (English) Update 8-8-20: I am calling this!!! or 1-888-VE-Y-VOTA (Spanish). And learn more about your rights here. Our democracy is stronger when we all can participate. Happy (almost) Fourth.”
