COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS AND OPEN YOUR HEART

Lately I have been walking around town a lot. I like the view one gets when walking around.  Park your car and try it. You get to see things up close and personal. There is so much going on too. I decided to have lunch and walk to the SUSHI bar where I am greeted and waited on hand and foot because I help pay their rent since I eat there often. On the way, I stopped at the family court building...woe to anyone having business there

FAMILY COURT

Family Court involves divorces and child custody suits and they get vicious and downright ornery without any help. Everyone who visits there is in distress, stressed out, angry, bitter and doesn't want to be there but that is where they are. I have been there many times over the years on business but this time it was to just watch and listen

BABIES HEAR and FEEL things

I came across verbal fight between two families who were squabbling over the custody rights for a new born baby that was just born. Both sides could not agree on visitation rights and procedures (quite common) and would talk AT each other instead of WITH each other with super charged words and expressions. Meanwhile the baby is held in someone arms and I know it is affected by all this negativity

OPEN YOU HEARTS

I had to intervene and tell everyone to calm down, take time out and to open their hearts. Of course it is hard to do when you are hard headed, stubborn, emotional, willful and not open to reason. That is precisely why they are there to begin with. It takes a third party authority to have to step in and tell them under the threat of jail how to behave and when...

HELPLESS TO HELP

I saw all their error but the trick is to get them to see it and mind you they don't want to see it either. Even the people that work at the Family Law Courts get a little hard-heart-ed to exposure of these never ending repetiticious reckless behavior over and over again. There is nothing much you can do because what needs to be done must be willingly done by the players not the observers....Sad indeed

I BUTTED IN BECAUSE IT WAS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL

 One party took my advice and stood down and another just couldn't come out of their repetitive insane thinking mumbling over and over again the same thing. All I could do is respond best I could and say repeatedly...OPEN YOUR HEART...OPEN YOUR HEART...over and over again. The response was.. "why should I have to do this or that" and I said it is your chance to show some charity...BEGIN NOW...OPEN YOUR HEART.... OPEN YOUR HEART

PLACE OF DESTRUCTION

Two people observed my getting involved and approved with one thanking me. Family Court is not well named because it is a place where Family is destroyed completely and thoroughly leaving losers in the wake some as young as newborns. Newly divorced young men and women as well as bitter older couples too come and go all day. If looks could kill, it would be a killing zone

SUSHI AND ME ...MEET -UP

I went to my well deserved lunch, ordered well and contemplated the fate of these people. I don't know them and will never see them again, but I know their suffering well. I see people suffering wherever I go and people can use their personal power to turn it up or turn it down and with GOD's help even turn it off too...Anything is possible when one is reachable and reasonable...

Talk a walk sometime and see what you see or get into....There is a lot going on all the time

Richie that is quite a story and an eye opener.  Difficult to step in as you did, but a beautiful thing to do, I hope that you planted a few seeds and that at least one of them did begin to open their heart.  Underneath anger is fear and hurt and my guess is a lack of some understanding of everyone's part in situations.  I believe that we are not always in someone's life but for a few seconds or minutes yet we are able to make a profound difference even if it is not recognized at the time. I choose to believe that is what you did for these young people and a tiny baby.  Hopefully the baby was shielded by God's love so it did not take into consciousness what was happening and on some level hold onto it forever. Thanks Richie, you have such a beautiful spirit for all to see if only they will look.
