...And I Fly‪!‬

I was a little girl that grew up with no brothers

or sisters. We lived in a big white house with my

Mom, Dad, grandmother, whom I called Nana, my

grandfather, Daddy Oliver and, at times, my greatgrand

parents, Mama and Papa Fanning. Although

they were all warm and loving . . . I HAD TO

HAVE AN IMAGINATION! . . . so, IMAGINE

I did!

My mind took me to hill and dale, town and

country and I created many unique characters who

became my friends. It was one great adventure, but

as goes all things . . . I had to grow up and move

on. First, there was elementary school #29, then Shortridge High School and

Ball State University. Then, came marriage, motherhood and my boys Jay and

Andre, what a joy. My life was then changed forever, especially with the arrival

of my grandchildren (were skipping ahead a little). Here they were, a whole new

set of little people . . . new, clean spirits, just waiting to be fed.

All in all, my life was fairly unremarkable, even predictable. The good news

is that my life was marked by many REMARKABLE RELATIONSHIPS. I

became the chronicler of these individuals and the events surrounding each

of their lives. I never met a soul that didnt add to my life, whether I gleaned

a positive or a negative message. Each lesson was so valuable, so precious, like

a jewel placed before me to contemplate, formulate and then to bring life to

the listener. So regardless of my place in life, my school, my job, my church,

my community . . . my primary concern is the enrichment of anyone who is

searching for light. So many searching souls feel that they are all alone in the

daily struggle but, let me tell you, we all have fears and uncertainties. In sharing,

we find that many have the same experiences, but the good news is that there

are a variety of solutions. Here I collected each precious nugget of insight and

truth and now it belongs to you.

For me, it became my mission in life to observe and process what is perfect,

what is imperfect, what is real, and what is illusion . . . WHAT IS YOUR

CHOICE? I have become a seeker, growing into a seer. I am Gods child and I

joy in doing what my Father sent me here to do.
