Random Gifting Across the World

We are hoping some of you have joined in the Random Gifting Across the World.  We have left little heart key rings in a couple of places and we hope that they brighten up someone day and we are planning on more before the end of the month.  If you have joined in or indeed P.I.F. Please post a comment and share the love. We would be delighted to hear of new P.I.F's and ways people have accomplished this.  We would like to see this blog grow and extend out into other parts of the world so if you read this and feel inclined please share it letting the idea manifest in other places. After all from a little acorn a mighty oak grows.  We have also been sharing and recommending other people and products we feel worth while and hopefully this will have manifested a few extra people for a workshop or a reading or two or even produced sales.  Please take a look at our other blogs as there might be something on there for you.  http://artfromtheheart1.blogspot  and http://craftladyrainbowblogspot.com.  So please think about a P.I.F. even buying someone a simple coffee and listening to a problem is a kindness and these things always come back in the nicest possible way - so extend the love and pass it on.

A beautiful idea reused

Originally this was an idea put on facebook by someone and I feel it would be a lovely thing to do for a whole month,  This can be something large or small or bought or made or very expensive or inexpensive the choice is your..  On face book it was called Random Gifting around the World you make or buy a small gift.  Put a lovely tag on it with something like "This little gift is for you to enjoy and make your day special.  Please enjoy it with my love and if you feel inclined do the same as may and cheer up somebody's day. Now good places to leave them on trains, buses, telephone boxes, cafes, dentist and doctors waiting rooms.  Who wants to join me and place a couple of random gifts around.  Please place any other ideas on where to leave them in the comment box below and it would be nice if those of you who do decide to participate just put a comment here as well or even in a later post as I will be updating this later this month and I am sure everyone would like to see what wonderful ideas people have had.  I know my partner has bought a freezer bag with this in mind and I shall make at least one heart key ring to random gift,  These gifts we hope will pay it forward in a different way.  Another place you could leave them are the cash tills in supermarkets as often by the end of the day the poor guys on checkout have had enough.  The date set for this is the 1st to 31st October and how many of these you do is up to you.  Please share this blog and spread it around the world and with it the love.

Hope you are all making progress

How are we all getting on with our Pay It Forwards I have started mine and my first was donating the two key rings and shamanic egg rattle.  The shaman uses rattles to bring down gifts and blessings from the great spirit.  Mine are not traditional but knitted with love. My next deed was to give someone a reading as I sensed this poor lady was having a rough time and not of her own making.  I know from the feed back I have had, that it has helped a lot putting her in a totally different frame of mind bringing positivity back into her life. It reiterating that the things that had happened were not down to her and indeed they were there to help move her on.  Don't we all need some reassurance sometimes (in fact that is exactly how I am feeling at this very moment).  It is sometimes hard to come to grips with the fact the universe has plans and one needs to go with the flow. This lady has agreed to pass it on to three other people who we hope will return this to three others.  I am now going to do two  recommendations, but I wish to add they do not have to pass it on and I will leave it up to them.  Firstly a new organic vegetable company who delivers around the Catford, Forest Hill, Grove Park,  Sydenham and the surrounding areas.  We have been having some delicious goodies from them as not only do they sell organic, but also biodynamic fruit, vegetables and herbs. Support a small business helping it grow and being in touch with nature and mother earth.  If you would like more details email Lee at

Griffin-kendall-cox@hotmail.co.uk or ring 07740189750. Lastly Maria Veiga is launching a book today called "The Seven Lies of the Human Race" and here is the link to connect with it on https://facebook.com/events/1785708188993903/ and I will be reviewing this book at a later date on our other blog http://artfromtheheart1.blogspot.com so watch out for it.

Up to date news

As lots of you know I have been rather out of circulation recently as I broke my leg whilst visiting my partner Daniel's father in Weston Super Mare.  I have now had my plaster removed and all I need to do is get my leg muscles working in a reasonable manner (basically so I can do stairs).  Meanwhile I did these for a charity event as a PIF I am not asking those organising it to do any PIF as they are doing this by organising and participating in the event.  If any of you want to PIF by sponsoring them in some way by either giving a raffle prize or by a donation.  Here are the details for anyone who wants to support this event should contact wiccanwiccans@Yahoo.co.uk - it is for two great causes the first one is the Shelden Unit Hospice in Birmingham and the Thames Valley Positive Support (tvps) who support local people in Berkshire who are HIV positive - it is an Evening of Clairvoyance on 1st November with Martin Jones, Josh-James Whiterose and Kristen Jackson and will be held at the Greenham Community Centre, The Nightingales, Newbury, Berkshire RG14 7SZ. It starts at 18,30 and finishes at 21,30..   I know any help will be well received.  I have also donated a reading with a watercolour painting similar to the ones on here http://spiritandsouldart.blogspot.com

 

I am also doing a reading for a lady later this week who I felt really needed one and I will be asking her to PIF to three people.  These PIF do not necessarily have to be money, but can be time,  Maybe getting shopping for someone who is elderly or not well or even taking a dog for a walk.  Please don't name names, but when you have PIF please blog how and what you did.  At the end of October I will be PIF again with a heart shaped key ring for the person who has the most unusual or interesting story.. 

Finally I am updating this as I felt the following rather reflects that lack of support some give to other and to this planet the earth we call home.  This video was filmed in 1992.  What have we done since to help.  Let this blog be one way we can move forward by PAYING IT FORWARD

Man of the Woods

I would like to thank Neil Paton for joining us on this project.  As he says he lives by this code, but I hope now he will ask people to pass it on.  If only to three people and they in turn do the same it will spread love and peace around many places lets start such a movement of this blog and share the love.  Do read his comment on the first post as these are the kind of deeds we need to do more of.  I am look forward to hearing some more stories such as this.  On the left is one of the beautiful wands Neil carves so lovingly.  This is one he carved for me and the energy it generates is spectacular.  He links with the wood and spends much of his time connecting with nature and the trees.  For my second pay it forwards I am going to share other people publicity for there workshops, seminars, talks, crafts and a whole collection of things not only on Facebook and Twitter, but my blog. I have done some of this already, but never asked that people pass it on or pay it forward.   All I ask is those I mention pay it forward three times  (or more if they feel inclined to help someone else), but I am going to mention one on here now as it is truly a project I would like to see get off the ground as much as I would like to see the sanctuary we are so much wanting to establish.  The lady in question is Sharon Law who said on my timeline "Hello I am Sharon Law and my dream is to create a course for young people called Success where all young people can learn how to be a success using their talents. Especially those who find the current system does not suit their learning styles. I need people who are trained working with drama, art. information technology communication and creative media plus venues to hold these events, materials and  people who under stand safety protocol with young children, I  need reasonably priced insurance, need network support group.  Anyone on this link who can help me make this come true!".  I know of at least two other people who have project regarding children in mind.  I would suggest that Sharon sets up a blog such as this and I am sure one of the larger art companies such as Daler Rowney, Windsor and Newton or maybe Jakar could be approach for sponsorship.  Please help Sharon by posting this information and help her manifest it as it is a wonderful idea.    

Chain of Love ..By Mike Denver

This sums up completely pay it forward.  It also says what you give out returns sometimes straight away, but even if it doesn't it still worth cheering up someone's day



Reach For the Stars

Last night my other half and I watched the film Pay It Forward and I was inspired to start this group.  We want to try exactly this trying to manifest love and peace around the globe by paying it forward.  Just imagine if everyone just paid it forward with three people and they in turn did the same how quickly it would grow spreading in its pathway global peace, love and if nothing more making someone's day.  It can be as in the film something difficult or  to buying someone a tea or coffee or just giving them a smile.  In turn you ask them to pay it forward for three other people who in turn are asked to do the same.  Please join us and unite globally, but please each of you if you feel inclined tell us a little about yourself what you desire from your spiritual path or globally.  If you want to remain incognito so to speak set up an email that is different from your usual one.  We would also like to hear what you did when paying it forward and if it brightened someone's day.  It will be interesting to see the various ways this works and what ideas people have in regard for it. It doesn't matter what age you are from 8 to eighty and less or more please join us. My name is Patricia McNally and I am a teacher, medium, artist and a colour therapist. I am passionate about teaching and love to share knowledge. I hold a Diploma in Teaching in the Life Long Learning Sector.  My partner Daniel Naughnane and my myself want to run a spiritual sanctuary where people can come to learn, try different complimentary medicines, receive hands on healing and also bring their pets for healing.  We also want to give people the opportunity to find out about shamanism, wicca amongst other things.  I am also passionate about saving mother earth and respecting her more.  My creed is wiccan "Do as you will, but harm none". I also make various things and some of the money goes to a fund for establishing the centre.  Things such as those below.  We also have two other blogs http://artfromtheheart1.blogspot.com and http://spiritandsoulart.blogspot.com,  For my first P.I.F. I am going to give someone a reading who I was told needed help at the moment and indeed I hope it does.  Please share your stories, but don't name names unless you have permission.
