@Puzzle Piece@GingerPeach,

 

Caroline Myss, I've read all her books, listened to multitudes of her audio cassettes/CDs. Anatomy of the Spirit is my favorite book of hers, Spiritual Madness my fav audio, and my favorite story the one she told about the woman who came upon a bad accident and prayed for the person involved. That was a woman who was "out of body" briefly From her injury and could "see" the prayers, as well as the not so prayerful thoughts, and in this state memorized the license number of the car with the woman praying so fervently. When the accident victim recovered, she tracked the prayerful woman down and paid her a visit to say "Thank you." That one story completely changed the way I looked at prayer, as well as the quality of the thoughts I think in general.

@MaggieMack

I have that set, too.  I loved that story.  It really resonated with me.  Thank you for reminding me of that.

@MaggieMack I believe the story.  I've heard a number of incidents like that.  Folks needn't be afraid to come forth with such experiences.  So many learn and have hope from them.

@GingerPeach Don't take my post as a negative.  I truly appreciate the middle aged and young seniors letting the world know that age and aging isn't a crime nor something where a woman isn't considered desireable or s*xy.  We have a lot of years left in us after 40.  Another gal Robin McGraw (sp) promotes positive outlooks for us gals.  I enjoyed her book "What's Age Got To Do With it".  There's another female but I don't have her name correct, Miranda Esmond White?
